Chapter 642 Pig Shooting Pig

"Nope. To be exact, I couldn't use the new ability without fear of getting noticed by 'World'." replied Angus.

"Make sense. But aren't you too paranoid? Maybe only us and the Princess who has [Analyze]." said Gilford.

"I will not be too sure about that. We may be the only one that gets [Analyze] from the King of Knowledge. But how about the one from the other users. Even if they couldn't fully develop it like the King of Knowledge, the potential is still there." said Angus.

"Besides, I already have too many problems on my own." said Angus before giving a book to Gilford.

"This is…" replied Gilford.

"It contains some information about Ancient Power. After you read it, you will know why I didn't take the chance to let the 'World' announce my advancement." said Angus.

"Sure. Thanks. I think you should let the barrier down. We need to attend to a broken Vigo who is starting to have an existential crisis." said Gilford.

"Sure." said Angus as he canceled the blurry barrier.

Exiting the barrier, they find Vigo sitting on the floor with a gloomy expression.

"This world is only a simulation.. Nothing could make a difference… Everything is a lie.." muttered Vigo repeatedly.

"Vigo! Oi.. Vigo!!" called Angus.

"You truly broke him, cousin." said Gilford.

"Tch… Troublesome. So, how is the progress of the project?" asked Angus.

"It's harder than we initially thought. If it is only making things to store information, we could easily create it long ago. But, if you want to add all those complex defense mechanisms, I think it will take at least a few years with just the two of us."

"Forget about making the concept and the rune calculation. We are already overwhelmed from scribing and testing the rune." replied Gilford.

"*Sigh* There is no other choice. It's better if few people know about this. Well, I will see what I can do. For now, let's get back to work." replied Angus.

"Vigo, I think we could use this kind of rune." said Angus while showing a piece of rune diagram.

Suddenly, the broken Vigo looks more spirited and grabs Angus' paper.

"What the… What is this rune? This seems like gathering some elemental mana?!" said Vigo without stopping.

Vigo forgot their previous conversation about 'World' and completely focused on the current project. They keep working for a few hours until Angus returns home. The sun is already set by the time he comes out of the Research Center.

"Urgh… What a mess!!" complained Angus as he noticed something before disappearing from his spot.

A moment later, Angus arrived inside his manor training ground. The training ground is entirely in chaos. Guards and knights are running around while being pursued by a group of three meters pigs. On top of the biggest pig, a naughty black-haired girl laughs while urging the pig to go faster.

The knights were completely overwhelmed and could only run. They couldn't even stop the naughty Anna since the girl was too strong to be restrained using ordinary means. Moreover, Jayna will definitely burn anyone who tries to hurt her.

As for Jayna herself, she just let all the chaos happen without intending to stop the naughty Anna. In contrast, Mira calmly enjoys her tea nearby with Darren on her side as if inside a peaceful garden.

'It seems Darren is once again dragged by Mira. Well, let's stop this chaos first.' thought Angus as he approached the training ground.

"Anna!!" called Angus.

Anna immediately pulls the pig's ear and stops the pig from running forwards before looking at Angus.

"Ahhh… Angus!! Look, Anna has a piggy ride. Pow! Pow!" said Anna while pointing the big pig towards Angus.

Suddenly, the pig released something from its big nose toward Angus. In response, Angus catches the things with a surprised look. *Oink* *Oink*

"Did it just shoot piglets from its nose?!" exclaimed Angus in surprise.

Before Angus could speak more, "Fascinating!! So, it is true that the other big pig could also produce another pig. But, why piglets?" commented someone beside Angus with thick glass.

Seeing the Research Center lab coat on the person, Angus knows this person must be the expert sent by the Research Center to investigate Porky Porky.

"You are?" asked Angus.

"Ahh.. Where is my manner? My name is Walter Hyde. You could call me Dr. Hyde for short. I hear a lot about you, Baron Victory." replied the person while inspecting the piglet in Angus' hand.

Before Angus could reply, he noticed something was coming at him.

"Angus!!" called Anna while charging at Angus at incredible speed.

"Urgh!!" groaned Angus as he caught the little troublemaker.

While stopping and catching the naughty little girl, he pushed back a few meters away.

"Anna, that's dangerous!!" rebuked Angus.

However, Anna ignores Angus's lecture and snuggles with a happy smile at his arm.

"Angus is meanie!! Leaving Anna the whole day! If Angus doesn't return, Anna will ride Porky Porky to search for Angus." complained Anna while pouting.

Hearing this, Angus knows Anna still couldn't completely erase her insecurity of being abandoned from last night.

'*Sigh* I should have known. Despite her cheerfulness, she still has fragile mental health.' thought Angus while patting Anna.

"I am sorry. I should go back early. How about we eat another pork meat for tonight?" asked Angus.

"Yay!! Porky Porky, more meat!!" ordered Anna loudly.

"Oh shit! Everyone brace for impact!!" said one of the bruised knight captains.

*BOOOOO* Porky Porky howled loudly before releasing a hundred big pigs from its giant body. The group of knights and staff immediately prepared to stop the incoming pigs. From their prepared and solemn expression, they have experienced this stuff a few times.

"Tch.. You are a naughty little girl." said Angus while pinching Anna's cheek.

"Noo.. Don't pinch Anna. Anna will get wrinkled like an old hag." complained Anna.

Angus knows that Porky Porky does not just obey anyone and casually releases a group of pigs. In this manor, they only follow Mira and Anna.

'It is unlikely for the taciturn lazy Mira to order Porky Porky. So, Anna must order it to be released a few times today.' thought Angus inwardly before pointing his finger at the incoming group of pigs.

Suddenly, a small complex magic circle appeared in front of Angus before shooting a spark of lightning toward the incoming pigs. The spark hit the first pig and knocked it before it jumped toward other pigs until all the pigs were knocked out.

All of this happens only for a moment and surprises everyone. They have never seen such a convenient spell since most of them only know fire elemental spells.

However, they are also relieved as the last time Porky Porky sent a group of pigs, a few even needed to get hospitalized from being trampled. Despite only being ordinary pigs without mana, their body is still tough and packs a punch.

After a whole day of experiencing the stampede, everyone is exhausted and bound to make mistakes that lead to injuries.

"Alright, enough starring. Start moving the pigs to the kitchen." ordered Angus.

"Yes, young master." replied the head butler Pavlon and the others.

"I am sorry for the sudden interruption, Dr. Hyde. I will talk to you another time." said Angus while carrying Anna.

"Sure. No problem." said Dr. Hyde.

Then, Angus brings the naughty little girl toward Jayna and Mira. On the way, Angus gives a silent instruction to other hidden guards in the manor.

'Keep monitoring that doctor. I want to know every move, behavior, and note he takes during his stay here.' ordered Angus telepathically.

The hidden guards didn't reply, but Angus could notice their slight movement from them. The Royal Guard is not the only one who receives Angus' guidance. His hidden guards and elite knights also receive strict ridiculous training from Angus.

After receiving a harsh training regiment from Angus, they may not be upgraded in mana core. But, their combat prowess is increased by leap bonds. Some of them even compared to the Royal Guard in the Royal Palace, who hailed the best knights in the kingdom.

Angus and Jayna exchange a few pleasantries before entering the manor estate. He finds his brother is busy having a social gathering outside, and Aunt Hersha still has yet to return. In other words, the manor is only occupied by them and the staff.

Meanwhile, a huge fight between two beastman happens inside the Morvo wasteland. The fight is very destructive and even attracts some of the monsters in the deep Morvo Wasteland.

"Give it up, Merra. You can't beat me." said Warchief Might.

"Shut up, old man!! How dare you touch him!" roared Merra while lying on the ground.

Currently, her body is riddled with various bruises and claw wounds. Her lustrous red fur has turned darker from the dirt, sweat, and blood. However, Merra didn't intend to stop fighting his Father.

Seeing his daughter's determination, "Urgh… Can you stop this madness?! If you have this kind of determination, why don't you vent it towards that boy!!" rebuked Warchief Might.

"Because I can't. He had already subdued me. Tame me!! I am his. Besides, why did you care?!" replied Merra with a hopeless tone.

"Of course, I care. You bear my name and someone I acknowledge. How could I let you marry a pubescent boy who is still not mature yet." retorted Warchief Might.
