I Just want a Peaceful life

"Did you have a true name?" asked Angus.

"True name? I am sorry, master. But, I still do not have it yet." replied Draven.

"Yet?" asked Angus confusedly.

"Yes, master. According to my knowledge, I need to reach a certain point before I get my true name. As for what is that point, I also am not too sure myself." said Draven.

"Wait for a second.. Where did you get your true name or who will give it to you?" asked Angus.

"I also don't know. What I know is my predecessor will suddenly know that they got a true name after reaching a certain point." said Draven.

"Hee… Interesting. Does the phoenix also like that?" asked Angus to Jayna.

"Nope.. According to Fire Phoenix knowledge, we will get our true name when we are born." answered Jayna.

"Such a contrast. Now, I begin to wonder about this true name's origin. It is a shame you don't have a true name, so we can't experiment about [Allegiance] power further. We could only hope we meet another beast or monster with a true name in the future." said Angus.

"Hmm… I don't think it will be easy. If every monster or beast needs to reach a certain point before getting their true name, then not every one of them has it. Furthermore, they will choose to die rather than tell the others their true name." explained Jayna.

"I bet Draven will also not want to tell you about his true name even though you are forcing him through the contract." added Jayna.

"Ehh.. Really?? Is that true, Draven?" asked Angus.

"Errmm.." replied Draven before going back to the shadow.

Looking Draven running away, Angus and Jayna couldn't help but sigh. Still, both of them didn't think much about it. After that, they decide to prepare for the day and return to their respective places.

Fortunately, Jayna is living inside a different part of the royal palace. Every single royalty has their own chamber and living building in other parts of the royal palace. Therefore, Angus could leave Jayna's quarter easily without creating a commotion.

A few weeks passed since Angus and Jayna fought with King Leon. Only a few people know about their fight. Even the high nobility such as the duke didn't know about it. They thought King Leon fought Jade again inside the special training ground.

Because of this, some nearby countries become more afraid about the Heart Kingdom's might. Although they didn't witness the fight, they still heard the news about the complete destruction of a special training ground.

They know that the building is absurdly sturdy, yet it is still getting destroyed into a ruin. This shows the power of the seventh-grade combatant. While the nearby kingdoms become wary of the Heart Kingdom's might, many merchants begin to attract towards the Heart Kingdom.

For most merchants, they prefer to do business inside a strong and stable kingdom. As the Kingdom is more stable and strong, it could indirectly protect them and do their business safely.

With the show of Heart Kingdom's might a few times throughout the past few years, more merchants decided to do business inside the Heart Kingdom.

On the other hand, the other nearby kingdoms start to lose their merchants as they migrate towards the Heart Kingdom, especially the one hostile with the Heart Kingdom. Hence the kingdoms nearby the Heart Kingdom make less income.

Some of the small kingdoms even have minor economic crises. The big kingdom like the Nergal, Tascar, and Hascua will be less affected. But it still didn't make them less worried. Fortunately, the Tascar kingdom and Hascua kingdom are always in conflict with one another.

The Hascua kingdom is a kingdom that makes a living from trading and is a wealthy kingdom. They are located in a very strategic place for international trading. On the contrary, the Tascar kingdom is relatively poor since they live in an infertile area.

Therefore, the Tascar kingdom is quite envious of the Hascua kingdom and often tries to attack the Hascua kingdom.

Since the Hascua Kingdom's major income comes from trading, they always become a neutral kingdom and always avoid conflict with the other nearby major kingdoms.

However, this balance started to change since the Heart Kingdom sold Miasma Curing Potion a few years ago. Although it didn't affect the Hascua Kingdom directly, it would be lying if they weren't attracted to the potion.

Before the potion was invented, the Hascua Kingdom could be said to be the richest among the other kingdoms nearby. The kingdom itself even monopolized a few business sectors with the other nearby kingdoms.

However, since the potion was sold, the Heart Kingdom started to have less business with them and become more self-sufficient. This makes their nation have less income.

Furthermore, in the past few years, the Heart Kingdom started to compete with the Hascua Kingdom in international trade.

Everyone with a little bit of brain will know that the Hascua Kingdom harbors bad intentions towards the Heart Kingdom for making them have less income and lose some big business trade. Hence, the kingdom situation near the Heart Kingdom becomes more complex.

Currently, they are only waiting for a small trigger before chaos and war engulf every one of them. In the meantime, Angus completely ignores the international political situation and keeps working inside the research center in the Heart Kingdom's capital city.

During these few weeks, Angus stops his work for a moment and entirely focuses on making a few enchanted items for Ian's group. They decide to accept Angus's request in searching Frozen Heart in the Snow Peak despite being opposed by their family.

Although most of them didn't know there was a Frost Dragon nest in Snow Peak, they still opposed going towards Snow Peak since it is located in the Reese Mountain range, one of the monster habitats.

Reese Mountain range may not be as mysterious as Dark Forest, but it doesn't mean it is less dangerous than Dark Forest. Still, Angus managed to 'persuade' a little bit of their family to let their children go to Snow Peak.

Most of them only worry about their well-being so that they can be easily persuaded by Angus after some talk. However, there is one stupid family that stepped out of their boundary, like the Nostrand family where Mia lives.

They decide to put a condition to letting Mia go if Angus is engaged with Mia. Hearing this, Angus couldn't help but get angry as the Nostrand family dared to use Mia as their political tool.

The Nostrand family is not in the same faction as the Victory family. Therefore, Angus couldn't use his family name over them. Unfortunately, Jayna also heard about this news. She immediately used her authority as royalty and princess to 'talk' with the Nostrand family.

Angus himself didn't know the details, but he knew that since then, the Nostrand family is like being ostracized in their political circle and didn't dare to treat Mia like a political tool anymore. Currently, Angus and Jayna are near the capital city gate looking at Ian's group.

"Is everything ready?" asked Angus.

"Yeah, just wait, we will definitely bring you Frozen Heart in no time." replied Ian.

"Well, I hope so." said Angus.

"Are you sure you don't need any bodyguards? I could give you a few knights for your bodyguard." asked Jayna towards Ian's group.

"Don't worry, we could take care of ourselves." replied Ian.

"Well, if you said so. Just be careful on your way then." said Jayna.

"Alright, then we will go first. Let's go, everyone." said Ian.

"See you, Angus, Lady Jayna." said the others.

Then, they begin to enter a carriage before going out of the gate.

While seeing their carriage depart, "Angus, are you sure they will survive?" asked Jayna.

"Nope. No matter how careful they are, there is no way they will survive in the Reese Mountain range with their current power." said Angus.

"Ehh.. Then, Why do you let them go?" asked Jayna.

"Don't worry, I asked cousin Kurvan and a few of his people to take care of them." said Angus.

"Kurvan??" said Jayna.

"Yeah, apparently Kurvan wasn't interested in politics or aristocratic things. Last year, he happened to secretly embark on a journey with a few people from the Sur village to increase his power. I asked him to take care of them." explained Angus.

"Since Kurvan already knows about them, he accepted my request easily. Besides, he told me that he is also interested in the Frost Dragon. I just hope he didn't do anything stupid since among his sibling, he is the only one that looks normal." added Angus.

"Ahhh.. I see. If it is Kurvan, then it is okay." said Jayna.

"Still, Ian and the others need to rely on themself since you know Kurvan could be quite harsh as he still has a habit of living in that dimension for a long time." said Angus.

"Yeah, the majority of people from Sur village are quite extreme in mindset. I was even surprised about their culture the first time I learned about them." said Jayna.

"I don't know how they still survive with their harsh culture and way of fighting." added Jayna while remembering the Spartan-like training they did in the past.

"Still, because of that, they become a force to be reckoned with. Father and uncle Jade even try to implement their training into the army.." replied Angus.
