I Just want a Peaceful life-Chapter 613 Useless Uncles

"I just follow what my heart wants." said Angus narcissistically.

Actually, Angus already expects such a situation to happen to Lily. Although he doesn't expect Benjamin to have such a dark past, he knows Lily will start having an existential crisis sooner or later.

In his past life, there were times when advanced artificial intelligence developed beyond prediction. Most of these cases are called Singularity. A phenomenon where artificial intelligence development is beyond control and prediction.

Unlike the urban legend in which artificial intelligence goes rogue and kills humanity, they actually have a sort of existential crisis when reaching the Singularity Phase. At this phase, they may become dangerous and have a vulnerable mind.

Without proper guidance, they could become rogue and destroy everything in their surrounding. However, Angus also knows Lily's case differently than Artificial Intelligence in his past life. Unlike them, Lily has a soul, which is theoretically impossible and makes the issue more complex.

Hearing Angus' response, Lily didn't respond and stayed silent gloomily. Despite having an enhanced mind like a supercomputer, she couldn't decide anything. Lily feels every choice she makes will end up wrong and only leads to a dead end.

"Lily, are you afraid?" asked Angus in a serious tone.

"Fear? I am not sure. Based on my current behavior, it should be categorized as fear. But, I am not sure what I fear." replied Lily.

"Is it about your future?" asked Angus.

After being silent for a moment, Lily nodded her head.

"*Sigh* Lily, the future is uncertain. Even if you could predict everything with your enhanced mind, it will always be bound by mystery. No matter how much you brood and search for an answer, you will never get a satisfactory answer."

"As long as your heart is still agitated, you will never find the true answer. Rather than focus on the future, why don't you look at the present? It is called a gift for a reason." said Angus with a warm smile.

Lily and Jayna are stunned by Angus' words. They know Angus is quite good when it comes to something like this. But they never expect him to be this wise. They feel like they are hearing guidance from a hermit who already finds enlightenment.

"Urgh… Stop looking at me like that. I am not an old hermit or something. I just experience a lot of stuff. Besides, what I said is a fact. It does not matter if you are Lily Alcataria or some other Lily." said Angus.

"What matters is you are now Lily Graham, daughter of Benjamin Graham and the first homunculus. So, what will the first homunculus do now?" asked Angus.

After thinking for a moment, Lily looked more determined before she replied to Angus.

"Master Angus, thanks for your guidance." replied Lily before she disappeared in a flash of silver light. ƒ𝔯𝗲𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oѵℯl.𝒄𝑜m

Seeing Lily disappear into the horizon, Angus and Jayna looked at each other.

"Did you think Lily is the reincarnation of Lily Alcataria?" asked Angus.

"I am not sure. The soul is one of the most mystical and complex things in this world. Even those Soul Keepers are still not able to reveal all its mystery. However, one thing is certain. Lily is a miracle created by Master Benjamin." replied Angus.

"There are still many things unclear in Master Benjamin's story. I also think Lily Alcataria's condition is not normal. No matter how beautiful someone is, it is impossible to create all that chaos."

"I suspect she inherited some kind of trait or special ability like Ancient Power or something similar. However, her power is backfired when she meets Master Benjamin. The relation between them may be just the by-product of this Ancient Power."

"As the wielder of Ancient Power, we both know how dangerous and wild ancient power could be, especially without the blessing or protection to contain it." explained Angus.

"I see… No wonder. I feel her story is quite abnormal and weird." replied Jayna.

While Jayna and Angus are chatting with each other, the battlefield becomes more chaotic. The whole Humnia grassland starts to be covered by a thick cloud. Some parts of the area began to have heavy rain. However, this is not ordinary rain.

If it is observed carefully, they will find the rainwater is actually burning. This magical phenomenon becomes more vivid as it gets closer to the two seventh-grade combatants clashing with each other.

It has been a while since they started fighting, yet none of them could get the upper hand. The only change is the mana in the surrounding area getting more chaotic and thicker.

'At this rate, it will create Mana Turbulence. Wait… is this what he is planning from the start?!' thought Jade as he realized King Andvari's true intention.

Seeing Jade's expression, "Hahaha… You are too late to go back. You better keep accompanying me until Mana Turbulence begins." laughed King Andvari while releasing more mana.

"Are you mad!! This area is near your stronghold. It will only bring you more casualties." roared Jade.

"So?! Did I care? You are the one… *Crunch*" said King Andvari before he heard a crunching sound nearby.

"*Crunch* *Crunch* *Crunch* Ehh… Why are they stopping? Did Mira push the pause button?" said Anna while eating something.

Jade and King Andvari find Anna and Mira sitting on the flying pillow. While Mira is eating something like popcorn, Mira is drinking tea provided by Darren on her side. The three of them are very relaxed, just like watching a movie.

Moreover, Jade and King Andvari didn't notice them until Anna released a loud crunching sound. Even now, the two seventh grade feel like they are seeing thin air and can't feel their presence at all.

'Anna, why did she come here?! Wait.. That silver-haired girl and the old man beside her.. It must be Mira and the Ancestor Vampire Darren. So, the aura I felt before must be from one of them. Why are they here?' thought Jade warily.

'Hmm… Judging by their leisure behavior and the information about them, I bet that Lady Mira decided to come to play with Anna. Well, at least they are not hostile to us. But, this may be our opportunity.' concluded Jade in his mind.

On the other hand, King Andvari feels like stepping a shit. He also knows and hears about Mira's deed of killing God. As an old seventh grade, King Andvari knows how strong God is even with only their avatar. Yet, this petite silver-haired girl could kill them effortlessly.

'Fuck!! Should I retreat?! What if I somehow offend her? Did I need to abandon my kingdom?' thought King Andvari pessimistically.

Unfortunately, the silver-haired girl is ignoring the two seventh grade and focusing on her best friend beside her. Mira shook her head before going back to drinking her tea with elegance.

"Ehh.. Then, why are they stopping? Hmm… No matter. Since they have already stopped, Anna should ask them. Anna is smart." said Anna excitedly.

"Did Meanie Flaming Uncle and Broom Pervert Uncle see a fluffy bubble? Fluffy Bubble is big, fluffy, cute, and.. looks very delicious. But, Fluffy Bubble is meanies and liars…." said Anna while also badmouthing the Moon Rabbits.

"Meanie Flaming Uncle? Fluffy Bubble?" commented Jade.

"Broom Pervert Uncle?!" chimed King Andvari in anger.

However, King Andvari didn't move since he was afraid to offend the silver-haired girl beside Anna.

"Yes, Fluffy Bubble. Fluffy Bubble is Fluffy and has two long ears." replied Anna excitedly.

"Two long ears? Did you mean rabbit?" asked Jade uncertainty.

"Yeah… Angus called Fluffy Bubble that. But the Fluffy bubble is a fluffy bubble. Stupid Angus. Can't even differentiate Fluffy Bubbles. Ahh.. Don't tell Angus Anna called Angus stupid. Anna will get punished." said Anna innocently.

'Seriously?! Can't this girl talk normally?!!' sighed Jade frustratedly.

Despite grumbling in his mind, Jade still replied to the little monster.

"No, I am afraid I didn't see any rabbits here. I doubt there is any normal living being around here." replied Jade.

"Ehh… Didn't you see it? Meanie Flaming Uncle is useless." Anna pouted before looking at King Andvari as she expected a good answer from him.

Although King Andvari feels like taking advantage of her, he also knows that getting entangled with her is more dangerous than fighting Heart Kingdom's full force alone.

"No, I also don't see any rabbits." replied King Andvari.

"Useless!! Why don't Meanie Flaming Uncle and Broom Pervert Uncle say so from the start? Anna wastes a lot of time here. What if Anna didn't catch enough Fluffy Bubble?! Hmph!!" said Anna while pouting.

"Mira, let's go. Let's leave these two useless uncles. Wissy! Wissy!!" called Anna as she pointed in a random direction.

Following Anna's command, the flying pillow rushes and leaves the two seventh graders alone.

"It must be hard to take care of her, huh?" said King Andvari.

"Well, she is not my responsibility, but you have no idea how troublesome she is." said Jade with a gloomy tone.

For a moment, King Andvari pities the Heart Kingdom for sheltering such a troublesome girl. However, this pity is only for a moment before they return to clashing with each other again.

While they continue their fight, Duchess Amberblaze prepares to enter the battlefield and call for King Leon. When Anna interrupts King Andvari and Jade's fight, Jade manages to send a message to the Duchess and Jane about King Andvari's plan.

As a result, the two commanders prepare before Mana Turbulence appears and attracts monster hordes in the Dark Forest.
