I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 183
Advertisement
All the ancient kings in the chamber may have already died and gone a long time ago. However, their simple projection remains here as the world recognizes them and preserves their title.
Hearing this, Angus remembers the experience he just got before. The experience of being forgotten by everyone and the voice he heard inside that space. There is a similarity between this ancient king's voice and the previous voice he heard.
'Don't tell me, that deep voice in that space is also the ancient king?' thought Angus inwardly.
According to the ancient king, nobody truly knows who is the one that created this place in the first place. Some speculated the world itself makes this place. Then, it was modified and changed as time went by.
Before everyone arrived here and modified this place, there was already one altar concealed and sealed from everyone. This is the same altar that Angus and Jayna found before coming here.
This is also the oldest altar among the others. Based on the ancient king's story, everyone who managed to fulfill this altar requirement will be fading away and forgotten by everyone.
No matter how strong they are, all of them will turn into nothingness and be forgotten even by the world itself.
The oldest ancient king in the chamber explained that after his countless research, he speculated this place's purpose is to worship the deceased king, which means this altar also belonged to the ancient king before their time.
Because of its accursed nature, it is called the Forgotten King's altar. Knowing the terrible nature of the altar, some ancient kings in the past decided to bend the world and sealed this whole place.
After being modified countless times by notable and strong people, this place became a place where people received a blessing or legacy from the deceased one.
The stone buildings in the inner area symbolized the place for people to get a legacy after they fulfill the deceased one requirement.
Most of them have a heavy requirement before they could give a person their legacy. Some just leave them to fate. Some are carefully choosing based on their own preference.
However, unlike the others that come after the ancient king, the ancient king's stone house couldn't be easily modified and changed easily.
Apparently, this ancient king stone house is also the one that is directed by the arm clock from the monster position. The oldest ancient king in this chamber created this mechanism to separate people who genuinely deserve their legacy.

Hearing this, Angus and Jayna couldn't help but be surprised since it means that this oldest ancient king knows how to subdued and control the monster to do his bidding.
Looking at their surprised expression, "Hahaha… Don't be too surprised, young one. In my time, many other people were capable of doing what I did."
"However, to change the world, only us, the ancient king, could be capable of doing these things." said one of the ancient kings proudly.
Angus and Jayna couldn't help but think how strong all of this ancient king was when they were still alive. They also believed that the phrase 'changing the world' must be quite different from their understanding of changing the world.
'Based on what they told us, these ancient kings must be at least stronger than seventh grade.' thought Angus and Jayna.
After explaining the nature of this place, "So, the question is, how come you survive from being forgotten?" asked one of the ancient kings.
"I am not sure myself. After the altar shines bright, I arrive..." as Angus told his experience inside the outer space before truthfully.
Since they are great people from their time, Angus thought it is better to tell them truthfully than to keep to himself without a way to understand his current situation.
Moreover, Angus didn't truly get anything besides being cursed or blessed by always remembering Jayna.
Hearing Angus's story and experience, all the ancient kings become silent and seem to think deeply. Until finally, the oldest ancient king decided to break the silence.
"So, I was right. That thing is also an altar for ancient kings like us. Well, at least now we could solve the question that has plagued us for a long time. Now, what should we do for these two young ones?" said the oldest ancient king.
"Of course, I will give them my knowledge and power as they managed to solve the oldest one's test." said one of the kings.
"Hey, you cannot do that. You already passed your knowledge towards someone in this generation." said one of the feminine queen-like statues.
"Who said there is a rule not to pass it to more than one person." counter the previous ancient king.
"I will take him as my heir. I could feel his elemental affinity is fire. So, It should be me who is called as Firelord to take him as my heir."

"Heir?? Didn't you choose someone before?." rebuked another ancient king.
"Hey, it already happened thousands of years ago. There is no way my heir will still survive." countered the Firelord ancient king.
"Hmm… I could feel your potential and beast nature in your body. Little girl, how about you become my heir, this Queen of Beast." said one of the feminine ancient kings to Jayna with an enchanting voice.
Apparently, the ancient king in this chamber consists not only of men but also women who get recognition from the world. It shows the world itself does not differentiate between gender.
"No way, I already decided to take her as my heir. I could feel an enormous life force in her body. My ancient power is the most suitable for her." rebuked another feminine ancient king.
"She is someone that could resist forgetting her boyfriend. It means her will is strong and more suitable for my power." replied another feminine ancient king.
As the ancient kings argue one with the others, "One of them seems to have the power of the oldest being while the others have the limitless potential that could survive the forgotten altar. No wonder, all of us want them as our heir." said one of the ancient kings.
"Hmm… Quite all of you!!" yelled the oldest ancient king.
All of the ancient kings immediately shut their mouths and wait for the oldest ancient king. Based on this reaction, Angus suspects that this oldest ancient king may be the strongest among the others here.
After a while of silence, "Alright, I already decided. We should give the two of them our blessing and ancient power." said the oldest ancient king.
Hearing this, all the ancient kings yelled, "What??"
"Oii… didn't you say that receiving many ancient powers at once may make them get restricted by the world and couldn't use them to their fullest capability." said one of the ancient kings.
"I also agree with him. Moreover, each of our ancient powers has the potential to change the world itself. It will be absurd to give them." said another ancient king.
"True. Besides what happens with the balance of the world, you always preach. Didn't you always say getting too much ancient power at once could collapse the world balance?" said another ancient king.
"They already did. Ever since they resisted the altar of the forgotten king, they have already become an anomaly of this world. With or without our ancient power, their fate and destiny are already severed from the world." explained the oldest ancient king.
"Now, they are on their own. their fate and destiny are in their own hands. They will be bound to change the world, be it destroy the world or make it a better place. No one will know." said the oldest ancient king as he tried to foresee Angus and Jayna's future.
"Moreover, their ancient powers also will not be restricted by the world. So, they could use many ancient powers without limit. The only thing that will limit them is their own self. However, we cannot take them as our heir." added the oldest ancient king.
"Huh?? Why?" asked one of the ancient kings.
"Because from the boy's story, he is already the heir of the forgotten ancient king while the girl seems to already inherited the power of the oldest being in the world, much older than all of us." explained the oldest ancient king.
"Although the girl could become our heir, I believe her power will clash with all of you when you decide to make her your heir. As the ancient kings, you should know how stubborn the oldest entity's power works even after their master has been deceased for a long time."
"So, what we could do is to give her ancient power and not make her into our heir. Though it is almost the same, her power will not recognize it as an intruder and clash with her heritage power."
"To summarize, both of them are already the heirs of someone else. As the ancient king, you should know better than everyone the means of an heir. So, now we can only give them our blessing and ancient power."
"Still, the choice is yours to give them your ancient power. As for how they will use this power, it is entirely up to them."

YAOS 1 - Limitless Adventures - Yet Another OP Story Book 1
December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and at Amazon. December 30th 2018: V1.1.2 of YAOS Book 1 is out, some content additions, fixed typos. Amazon's enhanced typesetting now displays tables properly. YAOS is shown through the eyes of some genius athlete getting OP inside a VR, ah wait, Full Immersion game, ?F.I.O?. Not a Hero, not a Nerd, just a driven individual paying for mistakes made, biding time until he can return to the Real World. He isn't defined like you'd normally do it, you can pick his looks and name all on your own, just like you do in video games. Believe it or not, keeping his looks undefined is harder than you think. His backstory isn't expounded in detail, but it drives his choices. Book 1 isn't about depressing sob stories but about fun and rushing forward, pursuing new horizons. Oh, and you'll end on a cliffhanger! Well, most serials do, so you will probably expect that without being told explicitly. But it isn't that bad, there's a lot of reveals and more to come once this book, that is the first in a planned three-part series, is finally ready for release on amazon et al. The published version will have: 1.) Godawful speaker tags, I hate them, they make you stop thinking and speed up editing so much. In hindsight they should have been in to begin with. But I stand by my goals proclaimed earlier. You guys should think while reading, that is the whole point of the exercise. Apply the knowledge and ideas, improve yourself, get creative! 2.) Pretty colored tables, the damned blue boxes, a lot of work, 69 in one book. Finally fixed amazon's centering issue. Can't say I liked the hours needed to debug that. 3.) The promised Mitara chapters. 4.) A cover! 5.) And lastly, updated polished versions of several chapters. MC shares more of his past, some terrible chapters (esp. 32) finally work. Some new scenes, minor rewrites in parts. Text flow and other issues. The current challenge is to maintain essential ambiguity while satisfying people wanting to know more without thinking three steps ahead. Balancing one with the other is tough. The smut which was in remains, but the story told is not to be superseded by it. A 15+ rating for the first book is also important, not to mention, YAOS wasn't meant to contain any smut to begin with. If the Author can turn to writing full time his output should increase, so please support YAOS #1 once it does finally release. ~Thank You~ No maps so far, that should be in, but is really hard to get done right. Again, tips are appreciated. Update September 2017: Stubbed chapters, sorry guys, currently don't have time to upload them elsewhere, polishing book 1 and 2, writing 3, takes precedence. Book 1 is in heavy editing, too much to keep synced and continuing editing. I'd need a site which offers JS-free rapid managing of chapters and comments. Coding one myself or setting a premade up is out of scope until I'm done with the books. RRL-old offered that, nuff said. This is only here because the author believes in fairies, nobody reads this, most likely. October to December 2017: Life threw some curveballs. February 2018: Book 2 draft 1 completed, at ~150K words. Book 2 is fairly epic in scope, requires 1 rewritten chapter, some editing. Tables and miscellanea are in, but needs at least a grammar pass. March 2018: Book 3 at 28k words, first arc, rest needs serious planning for spin-off and satisfying conclusion. July 2018: Yet another proofing/editing session of books 1-3, 101+ chapters, ~300k words. B3 at 48k, starts out great, but no ETA, no wordcount limit, in flux. But prioritizing my writing cannot be done, I hate the delays as much as you, but you will prefer the whole released in a timely fashion rather than wait. Knowing myself how excruciating waiting can be, at least you'll get significantly polished versions and an ETA on book 2 by release of book 1. December 23rd 2018: Book 1 is now up at Smashwords and in the process at Amazon et. al.. . To all who wait patiently, offered feedback, thanks again!
