Chapter 440 Inner Peace



On the other hand, Angus didn\'t need these noble families. He already has enough resources and money to support himself for a few generations. He also didn\'t need any of their connections. What Angus needs now is a strength that could only be obtained by himself.

In summary, Angus didn\'t need help from these noble families, but they needed him to help them with many things. Unfortunately, Angus never intended to help anyone except his family and King Leon.

He is neither a samaritan nor a hero who will sacrifice his life and everything for this kingdom just to be exploited by others in the end. Previously, Angus gave King Leon all the modified spells and skills because he didn\'t want his family and friends to fight a losing battle.

If they end up dying on the battlefield, he wants them to die for winning a battle. This way, their sacrifice will have more meaning. As for how the war went, he didn\'t care about it.

Although this kind of thinking is a little bit naive, it is better than doing nothing and seeing the useless death of his friends or family. Angus may not have many friends, but he has some acquaintance with the Sur knights, who are still on the front line.

He knows those Sur knights are ready to die as warriors and respects their resolve. However, he also didn\'t want to see their sacrifice become meaningless.

Ignoring the others, Angus goes towards Jayna and Anna. At this moment, the nobles start doing what they used to.

Some of them begin gossiping in whispers, especially the ladies. Few keep observing Angus with an interested look while the rest return to what they were doing before. Fortunately, this moment didn\'t go for long.

After a few minutes, King Leon entered the hall accompanied by Duchess Amberblaze. This grand entrance immediately attracts everyone\'s attention. Not only because of King Leon but also Duchess Amberblaze, who King Leon escorts.

Moreover, they look very intimate, unlike the rumor they always hear. Before King Leon came together with Duchess Amberblaze, he and the duchess were like fire and water. They always argue with each other.

Unless it is an emergency, they will always fight on each other\'s throats. Sometimes others also find they fight and destroy the surrounding. Hence, looking at the previous cat and mouse getting together surprises everyone.

Furthermore, King Leon is famous for his stubborn and cold nature. He never even holds Empress Dahlia, much less escorts her to enter any event together. Because of this, Empress Dahlia rarely attends the big event so as not to embarrass herself.

Yet, now King Leon deliberately escorts someone who everyone knows as his enemy. Despite this, no one dares to say or comment on something.

Although King Leon looks less stoic than usual, he still has the same cold face. He even sends a death glare to everyone saying, \'comment on us and you are dead!!\'.

Then, King Leon and Duchess Amberblaze went towards the open balcony connected with the capital city\'s grand plaza. As soon as the citizens see King Leon, everyone cheers loudly.

"My dear Heart\'s citizen..." said King Leon as he started his speech.

Despite not using magical equipment, everyone could hear his voice on the grand plaza, like he was speaking directly beside everyone\'s ear.

\'What an absurd control of mana?!\' thought Angus.

Previously, King Leon never did this kind of show skill and used magical equipment to amplify his sound.

\'He never did this before. Does he want to show off? No, it is not. He is only able to use this kind of thing now. As expected, King Leon is getting stronger and it is not just my feeling. It seems Aunt Extalia is really the key to unlocking his true power.\' thought Angus inwardly.

After a fighter reaches a certain level, they will be hit by a huge bottleneck. Some people say this is the limit of what they could achieve. However, after reaching this limit, those fighters often find their power begins to deteriorate.

Soon, they will keep getting weaker unless they can overcome this limit. Unfortunately, overcoming this limit is more complicated than it looks. Because this limit couldn\'t be broken by physical force, it is a limit connected to the mind, spirit, and belief.

Since spirit and mind is a very ambiguous and complex, most people can\'t pass this big hurdle, while some never find this limit. Still, there is a way to break this limit. All the successful ones always advise others to accept themselves.

The advice is simple and seems easy but harder to do. When the fighters reach and find this limit, most of them already have their own principles and way of thinking. It is very difficult for them to change and accept themselves. It is like facing their inner demons or all their mistakes.

To accept their true self, they must change and create another way of life, principles, and thinking. Accepting and adapting to this change is difficult as the problem is rooted in themselves.

Even if they know the problem and try to change it, their heart will still refuse to accept them. The only reason King Leon was able to overcome his limit quickly is because of his vow. By coincidence, his vow not only strengthens his heart and mind but also forces them to change.

Angus actually knows this limit as he also experienced it in his past life. He knows how difficult it is to break through this limit. Even at the end of his past life, he still couldn\'t successfully make peace with his inner demons and past regret.

Furthermore, this shackle keeps haunting him even in his current life. He almost fell deep into his past condition again during his teenage years when he tried to deny his feelings for Jayna to avoid trouble. His hesitation becomes more apparent as he starts to teach Jayna his combat skill.

His doubt and fear of making mistakes kept accumulating and he finally realized he almost fell into the same hole as in his past life. Fortunately, Angus is not a genius for nothing. He immediately realizes his condition and decides to confess his feelings.

Still, it takes him a few years before he finally completely breaks this shackle in the Endless Battlefield Dimension, though he didn\'t realize it until now.

Seeing King Leon speaking, "Hm... No wonder I could use [Domain - Lord of Death] easily at that time." muttered Angus in a low voice.

As a genius expert, Angus mastered a few domain skills. Normally, someone will only be able to master one of them in their lifetime.

It is already great if they can master one of these domain skills since they use a lot of chi. However, Angus is a genius and has inexhaustible chi in his body.

As long as he could keep refining the heritage chi to his own, he will have an endless amount of chi. During his peak in his past life, he managed to create his own domain skill based on his own. This domain is more potent than others since it is made based on himself.

However, ever since he fought against Ultimate Weapon spear, he could not reaccess this domain and reach the limit of his strength. He knows that he needs to make peace with his past and accept it to be able to use it again.

Still, it didn\'t mean he could just use it again after finding his inner peace. Because of the domain nature, he needs an incredible amount of chi to use it.

If it is not for the special domain that grants him an infinite amount of energy, he may not be able to use it when he meets the retainers of the Forgotten King. Even with his current large amount of chi, he still feels unable to use this terrifying domain.

"Now, let\'s pray for those who have fallen while defending our Heart." said King Leon.

King Leon asks everyone to be silent and pray for those who have fallen in the war. The citizens silently pray according to their beliefs while King Leon and Duchess Amberblaze stay quiet and close their eyes.

Despite many people in the grand plaza, no sound could be heard besides the wind and a few sobbing sounds from the fallen soldier\'s family or friends. Even the mischievous naughty Anna also stays still and stops eating.

After a few minutes of complete silence, King Leon opened his eyes with more resolve and continued his speech.

".....And that\'s it. Now, let\'s celebrate our win against those invaders and show them we are no weakling. For the Heart!!" said King Leon as he ended his speech.

"For the Heart!! For the Heart!!" cheered everyone.

The people in the plaza keep chanting the same word for a few minutes, even after King Leon and Duchess Amberblaze return to the hall. Inside the hall, King Leon accompanied by his lover stood on the high podium and began the award ceremony.

The ceremony is broadcasted to everyone across the capital city using various kinds of magical equipment provided by the kingdom.

King Leon begins the ceremony by calling each soldier based on their group, rank, and squad. Each of them gets its own reward. Some group leaders get a raise in rank. The notable one even got a huge sum of money.
