I Just want a Peaceful life

After taking care of the little troublemaker, Anna, Angus, and the others return to focus on the strapped, tortured Moon Rabbit. Looking at their half-death condition, they could only shake their head at Anna's cruelty.

'Tch.. Tch… Such a pitiful creature. If it was not for these black shadows, they may have already died a long time ago.' thought Angus inwardly.

Although Anna says she is trying to heal the rabbits, she is actually torturing them into a half-death state. Their body is mutilated roughly like a used broken doll played by children. Despite this, none of them care about it. At most, they only pity the Moon Rabbit's fate.

Angus already told everyone about Moon Rabbit's culture, habits, and upbringing as an assassin clan. Though Mia and Millie find they are cute creatures, they also know how dangerous they are. No one knows when they will strike and kill them.

Furthermore, they are already used to such a gruesome scene, especially Millie. Despite her Saint-like title, she hides many vicious soul skills all over her body. Even the invincible Anna approved Millie's current strength and matched her with Angus.

Ignoring the Moon Rabbit's half-death state, Angus takes out a piece of small orb, Kaguya's Tear. A piece of artifact that is capable of controlling the Moon Rabbit. Angus knows the artifact has little use on these two rabbits.

However, it could still have a specific effect on one of the Moon Rabbits called Tiny. Tiny has a more humble background than the other rabbit, Tootsy, which comes from the Royal Bloodline.

As long as the order is not exaggerated, such as killing himself or contradicting the previous order from the other Kaguya's Tears, Angus could still have certain control over him.

"Give me your blood essence." ordered Angus coldly to Moon Rabbit Tiny.

"MMmmHHmmm…" struggles Tiny desperately under his bounded body.

Unfortunately, his struggle is futile. His body is already moving independently and gathering its blood essence as Angus commands.

Blood essence is not an ordinary blood drop. It is a drop of blood that contains the living being itself, including its memory, skills, potential, and even its skills.

Therefore, Blood Essence is very important to anyone. Once it gets into the wrong hands, a person can be controlled or cursed from a long distance.

Angus also guesses that the mysterious turtle Ate controlled the Moon Rabbit clan using this method, even with only half of Kaguya's Tears. Unfortunately, Blood essence couldn't be easily produced.

Anyone who gives their Blood Essence will not only enter a long weakened period but could also damage their foundation and potential during the process.

If the process is forced on, it may doom the person's life and future. In other words, it could doom someone's future and talent.

As Angus forcefully asks Tiny with the help of Kaguya's Tear, Tiny's mind is unwilling to give his blood essence while his body is already working on it. This contradiction clashed inside his body, leaving many hidden injuries and damaging his potential.

Still, Angus didn't care since this was not the first time he took out blood essence from the two Moon Rabbits. In his eyes, the two Moon Rabbits were wasted long ago.

Putting the blood essence drop inside a special enchanted vial, "Mia, come here." said Angus.

"What did I need to do?" asked Mia nervously.

Mia still has some psychological shadow towards Angus since he often beats her badly during their spar.

"Try to refine this blood essence. Just pour your mana into it." Angus gave her the vial.

Mia was momentarily confused but still did it as Angus commanded. *Hrmm* Mia slowly releases blue-colored mana from her hand and moves it toward the blood essence inside the vial.

After a minute of pouring mana, everyone finds no reaction to the blood essence. Mia even looks at Angus to see if she did it right.

"Keep going. Just release it steady like that." said Angus.

Hearing this, Mia returns to focus on pouring mana steadily toward blood essence. Releasing mana at a constant pace still requires a lot of concentration. Not everyone has Angus and Jayna's talent in mana control.

After a few minutes passed, "Hmph!! You are just wasting your own mana stupid girl." a voice came out from inside Mia's mind.

Mia knows this is the remnant of Ice Phoenix Artica. This is not her first time hearing Artica's voice. They often meet and fight each other during Mia's sleep. Still, it is rare for the Ice Phoenix to make sudden comments.

"Shut up!! I am trying to concentrate here." replied Mia inwardly.

"Tch… You don't even know what you are doing. You are just blindly following that boy. What a foolish girl." said Artica.

"Hmph… It is as if you could do better than me." retorted Mia.

"Of course, I could. If I am not wrong, that boy should be trying to make you trigger the blood essence resonates. But, it's a useless effort." replied Artica.

"Resonance? Why is it useless?!!" asked Mia.

"Blood essence resonance could only be triggered by its descendant, or they have a blood relationship. It is just a pitiful rabbit. How come it could have any blood relation with you, weak human." said Artica pridefully.

Hearing Mia also starts to lose hope and wants to ask Angus for better options. *CLING* Suddenly, a burst of mana erupted from the blood essence. As if triggered by it, light comes out from Mia's orifices.

Countless blurry visions and pictures appeared inside her mind, each hurting her mind and psyche. After a long time, the visions stopped as Mia suddenly arrived at a bright white room.

Mia could see some white-robbed people sitting and surrounding her in the bright white light. Magically, she couldn't count the exact number of people in this room. It was as if the number would keep going on without stopping. She also finds the white room weird.

At first glance, it looks like a cubicle in a small white room. But the more she looks at it, the more she finds that the room has no edges or shapes like an infinite space. Yet, it still has a floor, ceiling, and wall. It is very magical and confusing at the same time.

"Urgh… Where am I?" groaned Mia while massaging her temple.

"Welcome, young one. I know you have a lot of questions in your mind. Unfortunately, it is not our place to answer your question." greet the white robbed person in front of Mia.

Hearing the soft ethereal voice, Mia couldn't distinguish the person's gender or appearance. The room was bright without a speck of shadow. Yet, a shadow obscured all the white-robed people's bodies inside the cloak.

"Then, why am I here?" asked Mia in confusion.

"You are here to guide us." the white robbed person.

"Huh?" asked Mia in confusion.

"Always remember, Young one. The most magical thing in this world is searching for it." said the white robbed person cryptically.

As soon as Mia heard these words, she could see the talking white robbed person. It was the same granduncle who had long ago told her she was the only hope for the Nostrand family.

"Granduncle?!" asked Mia.

"I will be waiting for your next visit, Mia Nostrand." said Mia's granduncle with an amicable smile.

A warm smile as if he was proud of her descendant doing a great deed. Then, Mia feels like falling into a water vortex before arriving inside a familiar cold palace. This is a battleground between Mia and Ice Phoenix Artica.

This is also the place where she picks up all her phoenix skills through battling Artica. Though most of the time, she got beaten up and forced to wake up later.

"No!!! Who are you!! How could you have such a strong soul?! Who are you?!! You are just a lowly human?! An Ant!!" shouted Artica in madness.

Seeing the frustrated Artica, Mia only gives a gloating smile towards Artica. The relationship between the two is far from harmonious. Ever since Artica recovered from the forced soul merging, she constantly harassed Mia in her sleep.

They have already fought a dozen times without any clear winner since they couldn't kill each other. Injuring others will only cause the same injury to oneself.

All they could do was force the other party to admit defeat. Unfortunately, none of them wanted to give up, which led to their unstable situation.

Seeing Mia's gloating smile, "This world is really unfair. I couldn't beat my sister. I couldn't become the best phoenix. Now, I couldn't even beat a weak human hatchling. Hahahaha…." laughed Artica madly.

Artica knows with Mia's current soul, she will never have a chance to take over her body. Even though she could get it, it was akin to possession, not like a real body.

She will never reach her true previous height anymore. She knows her only future is trapped inside this young woman until she dies and reincarnates. Hearing Artica's cynical remark, Mia didn't answer and stared at the pitiful Ice Phoenix.

"You are so pitiful, Artica." said Mia from behind Artica.
