I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 12
Advertisement
The following day, Angus wakes up along with the sunrise. He felt his body become stronger with better control and flexibility from the training yesterday.
After doing some light stretching, he takes a bath. Fortunately, each bedroom is equipped with a personal bathroom. So, Angus didn't need to worry about others finding him sweating a lot from the training.
Aside from that, his stomach also cried for food as he hadn't eaten anything since yesterday's breakfast. The only reason he didn't collapse is because of his breathing technique and his endurance.
The breathing technique Angus used is a combination of secret techniques from various martial arts that passed down since ancient times, so the effect is also very vast.
In Angus's past life, there is a saying that breath is the source of life and power. Just by breathing, people could survive in various kinds of conditions.
This condition includes not eating or drinking for months. Still, Angus will feel discomfort from not eating or drinking.
So, rather than become a masochist that torture himself for no reason, he still prefers eating than fasting like some monks in his past life.
After taking a bath, he wears his uniform that he stores in his pouch space storage, limited space storage that could store inanimate objects. He also begins to take out some stuff from it to decorate his room.
Then, he goes towards the dining area, where some servants supply the food on a circular dining table. Looking at the circular table, Angus knows that the 4th princess will be angry about this as she can't sit in the head table position.
Angus remembers from Vergil that the dorm will only provide breakfast for free while the lunch and dinner need to be managed by the students themselves. The students could still pay the servant in the dorm to serve them lunch and dinner by exchanging some points.

Thinking about the fight yesterday, Angus predicts there will also be some fight this morning as the other students will gather in this place.
Fortunately, it is still quite early, and there are no other people than him in here. He immediately takes a seat and eats his breakfast with gusto.
Done eating his portion, he directly goes outside the dorm building towards the garden. One of Angus's hobbies is enjoying the fresh air in the morning with nature.
There's no way he will miss the wonderful scenery that the Spring Dorm provides in its garden, especially if it is combined with the beautiful sunrise and cool sensation in the morning.
During his enjoyment, he practiced his breathing technique silently. After a while, he heard some chaos inside the dorm building like he expected.
'Well, time for me to go to class.' thought Angus.
He didn't want to be late for his first day of class because of some kids.
Angus strolls away while enjoying the morning scenery that the royal academy provides. Firuman world has cleaner air than his past world. It also has more greenery and less pollution thanks to mana-based technology.
Soon, he arrives at the first-year section. The first year is divided into a few classes. Each class consists of 5-8 students, with one homeroom teacher supervising them. Rather than class, Angus thought of it as a group study since it consists of a small number of people.
The reason for this distribution is because each student in the royal academy is precious and will turn into a high figure. So, they feel the need for the student to be taught more privately.
After looking around, he arrived at his class 1-A. The class is still empty as not many students around his age like to wake up early.

Looking that he is still too early, he takes a seat near the window with good scenery before sleeping on the desk while hiding his face with his arm. Although he is sleeping, he still keeps his vigilance towards his surroundings.
Soon, more people come in and create some noise by chattering with each other. Angus keeps ignoring them while doing light sleeping.
After a while, the noise went away and was replaced by silence. Then, Angus feels a kid approach him.
"You over there, sleep somewhere else. That place is mine." Said a female voice with a demanding tone.
Knowing that it was just some other spoiled kid, he ignores it and keeps sleeping. But, at this moment, Angus feels the kid gather mana in her fist and punch him towards his head.
Since he already felt its intention before, he pretends to wake up, stretching his arm high, and misses the intended punch that goes through the table.
'Oi.. Oi.. With that much power. My head will splash like a watermelon.' thought Angus.
Then, Angus looked at the perpetrator of the attack. She was also surprised to see him dodge her punch. The attacker is none other than the 4th princess, Jayna Heart. She immediately realizes her mistake to provoke me as she becomes silent, not knowing what to do.
'Hoo… It seems father's performance is still fresh in her mind. Well, let's tease her a little bit.' thought Angus inwardly.
"Huh.. Princess Jayna, Why are you here? Ehh… What happens to my desk?" said Angus innocently.
"Y-Your desk…" replied Jayna in a small voice.
"Wait… Don't tell me. Those assassins also follow me to this academy." said Angus in a serious tone.
"Assassins??" said Jayna confusedly.
"Yeah.. Since I was a child, there have been some assassins that try to kill me like now. If I didn't wake up just now, my head might already blow up like a watermelon."
"Err.. No.. This is" as Jayna becomes paler.
Looking at the pale Jayna, Angus interrupts her once again, "Don't worry, princess Jayna. As the noble, I will protect you from this assassin. I just need a volunteer from the class to notify the headmaster about this matter."
The other student could only look silently at how the situation transpired. But, looking at the confused kid, "What are you waiting for? The assassin may still be nearby and could attack again?" shouted Angus.
"W-Wait!!" The 4th princess tries to stop the situation from becoming more escalated.
But, once again, Angus interrupted her, "Don't worry about it, princess. I will.."
"STOP INTERRUPT ME!!" shouted the princess as she couldn't hold it anymore.
Before she continues, "There is no assassin. J-Just forgets about this matter." said Princess Jayna
"Eehh.. But.." replied Angus.
"JUST FORGET ABOUT IT!!" Said Jayna in a slow pace and threatening tone.
Looking at this, Angus immediately smiles evilly, "Alright, I will forget it."
Hearing and looking at Angus' tones, she knows that Angus is just messing with her around. But, remembering how scary the duke Victory was, she could only swallow her emotion.
Before she took a seat, "Umm.. Sorry, Princess Jayna." Angus called her again.
"W-What's it?" replied Jayna coldly as she didn't want to deal with Angus anymore.
"Well, my desk is broken, so I still need to tell the teacher about the ass.." said Angus teasingly.
"I will share it with mine!" yelled the princess.

Leveling Up Is Better Than Reality
If you've ever been called a slacker, you know, it's not that you're lazy, it's just that you're not interested. Your values don't allow you to work hard as you wish to live in a heaven-like world where you don't have to do anything. As Gandhi said, ""Be the change you wish to see in the world...'' Wise words indeed. This story's about lazy- I mean an idealist hero named Zellin living in an RPG-like world. I'm going to deem this work as PG-13, but you never know...
