I Just want a Peaceful life-Chapter 489 Nightmare

The nearby kingdom couldn't send another spy either since Vampires can differentiate their kind easily. The moment they find other races enter their border, they will kill them mercilessly.

This makes the other kingdom suspicious of the Eternal Kingdom, especially the one that hates them. Some kingdoms are also trying to spread nasty rumors and controversial theories about the Eternal Kingdom.

However, no one is moving against them since most of the nearby strong kingdoms are still in a recovery state from the Krugguar Emperor migration. Many tried to bring up this matter to the world alliance, but the elf leaders ignored it since this matter didn't affect the whole world. 𝐟𝘳𝑒𝗲𝘸e𝒃𝘯𝒐𝐯e𝚕.c𝒐𝒎

The world alliance only holds a meeting when there is a threat that could affect the entire world, like the migration of a monster overlord or newborn monster overlord. Otherwise, they will not care even if a kingdom destroys each other.

In the worst case, the elf kingdom will decide to become a natural mediator between two forces to solve the conflict. However, a matter between two kingdoms or more can hardly be brought to the world alliance's attention.

Unless it is exceptionally threatening, like Plargos' plague, they will leave the matter alone. Firuman is a massive world with many hidden dimensions and unexplored land.

Every single kingdom has its own matter to take care of. Each day a conflict between two or more forces always happens. As the world alliance's leader, the elves couldn't solve and become the third party to all this conflict.

Not only is it against their conservative way, but it will also take too much manpower, which is something the elves couldn't afford to spend carelessly.

While the Krugguar Emperor migration incident finally ends, Angus's group still stays inside Twilbo Woods in search of the Crabfrog beast. It's been a week since they received the second test. However, they still didn't find any sign of Crabfrog.

With their speed and strong body, they should already cover the whole forest in just two or three days. However, the Twilbo forest is not an ordinary forest. Since it is located close to the entrance of the Nirvas kingdom, the Twilbo Wood's area is also distorted.

The forest boundary is still the same, but the area inside is larger and bigger. Combined with the thick mist all over the forest, there will be some unexplored area despite the fact the forest has already existed since ancient times.

Previously, Angus is frustrated and wants to burn the whole forest when they search for Craghost Town. Now, the one that wants to destroy it is not only him but everyone except Anna and Mira. The two little girls already completely forget about the Crabfrog and decide to play around.

Fortunately, they also heard Nergal's party still couldn't finish their last test. Apparently, Vault Guardian Makar stays as the head examiner and decides everyone's test content on his whim which could be ridiculously easy or hard.

However, no one could pass the last test since he became the head examiner. The rumor said his final test is very hard and super ridiculous. Using this opportunity, Angus and the others want to finish their test as soon as possible.

Currently, Angus and the others are inside their tent, resting after a whole day's search. As usual, Angus and Jayna share a tent while cuddling and having intimate activities.

As they want to start another night session, they feel a familiar presence approaching their tent and stop their intimate action.

They also notice this person rarely wakes at these hours, especially with her sleeping habit. Soon, they find Anna entering their tent with sleepy eyes and still wearing her sleepwear.

"Angus.. Big sis.. Anna, scared…" said Anna meekly, unlike her usual cheerful tone.

"Another nightmare?" asked Jayna lovingly.

"Mmmm." replied Anna while nodding her head.

"Come here. Let's sleep together." replied Angus.

Then, the little troublemaker walked slowly and lay beside them. The couple knew they could not have a love session that night, but they also didn't mind it. They know Anna rarely has a nightmare when she is sleeping.

The little girl looks vulnerable when she has a nightmare and often cries. As someone that truly cares about her, they will never let her in this situation and constantly reassure her by sleeping next to her.

Then, the couple kisses Anna's head lovingly together before holding her hand from left and right.

"It's okay. We are here for you, Anna." said Jayna softly.

"Warm…" muttered Anna while closing her eyes.

A moment later, Anna finally calmed down and slept peacefully like usual while keep holding their hand. Then, Angus and Jayna decide to sleep for the rest of the night.

The next day, they wake up early, like usual. After washing up and doing their morning routine, they have breakfast together. There is nothing changed besides Anna clutching on Jayna and staying silent.

"Anna?" asked Mira, who looked confusedly at the black-haired girl.

The others also notice Anna's unusual behavior since she always creates a ruckus during breakfast.

"Don't worry about her. She just had a nightmare last night. It is a rare occurrence but not unusual. Though it's been a while since she had a nightmare." explained Angus.

"Anna is fine." replied Anna, but still clinging to Jayna.

Then, Mira approaches her friend and gives her breakfast to Anna.

"Food?" asked Mira.

The little gluttony immediately drools at the food but is still not separate from Jayna. Seeing this, Jayna accepts Mira's food and gives it to Anna. After experiencing a nightmare, Anna is still not fully recovered from her vulnerable state and always clings to Jayna or Angus.

Because of this, Angus and Jayna decide not to separate on their own and follow Anna's group to search for Crabfrog. After finishing their breakfast and dismantling their tent, they continue their search. As they walk for a few hours, they find the end of the forest.

"Tch.. Another end." complained Angus as they returned to the forest.

During their search, they often meet with the forest boundary. Unfortunately, this couldn't be used as a landmark for carpet searches throughout the whole forest. The forest's space is too distorted for a carpet search.

Otherwise, Darren could easily find Death Rose before. With his speed and perception, he could definitely cover the whole forest in a few hours. Yet, he explained that the entire forest seemed to become bigger than the last time he was here.

It is like the forest keeps expanding without end. Darren also explains that the forest contains thick space elements that easily distorts the area. Moreover, the space element completely blends with the thick mist and could prevent someone from noticing the distortion.

In the end, they could only hope for luck to find Crabfrog in this distorted misty forest. Another few hours passed by and they decided to take a break while having lunch.

Fortunately, they didn't need to worry about their food reserve since they could always hunt the surrounding creature. Angus also takes this time to unlock various rare beasts/monsters in the Twilbo Forest. He also gets more information from Darren.

As they are having their lunch, Anna is sitting on Angus' lap while looking at the surroundings with vigilance as if she fears something will attack her out of nowhere. Seeing the little girl's behavior, Angus patted Anna, trying to calm her down from time to time.

The strange thing is when she is in this state, she often forgets to eat her food and needs to be fed by either Angus or Jayna. Fortunately, she could return to her cheerful state as time passed by.

As Angus leaves Anna on his lap to calm her on her own, she suddenly jumps and screams while hugging Angus.

"Angus!!" called Anna while pointing at her food bowl on the ground.

At this moment, Angus notices a familiar small purple shell moving from the ground towards the food bowl. As soon as it touches the bowl, it melts the bowl while the food inside turns purple and releases a strong, pungent odor.

p Angus immediately takes a distance and uses a few detoxifying spells as he somehow breathes a little bit of this pungent smell.

"It's crabfrog!!" called Darren from the side.

The Crabfrog ignores its surroundings and looks sad at the dark purple-colored food in front of it. Then, it decides to burrow back into the ground. Unfortunately, Darren reacts fast and casts a few strong barrier spells to hold the poisonous beast.

"Fiuuhh… What a strong poison?! It could even take down the fourth circle barrier spell." commented Darren as he cast unknown strong barrier spells just for sure.

"Anna, look. It's Crabfrog. Don't you want to make a pet of it?" asked Angus to Anna, who is on his arm.

"Crabfrog?! Is it going to eat Onyx?" asked Anna innocently as she finally calmed down.

*Hissh* Onyx hissed in a low voice from inside Anna's clothes.

"Err.. I don't think so." replied Angus as he approached the Crabfrog with Anna.

Then, Anna sees the Crabfrog, who is trying to escape from Darren's spell.

"Emm… Angus, it looks starved. Are you sure it will not eat Onyx?" asked Anna again.

"Starved?" asked Angus back.
