Chapter 142: Frozen Sleep

The Endless battlefield dimension only permitted fifteen years old below to enter it. Because of these rules, many youngsters died inside the Endless Battlefield since it is a vast dimension containing high-grade beasts and monsters.

However, Endless Battlefield is also a kind of opportunity for people that search for power, fortune, or opportunity.

It is not a secret that many of the survivors of Endless Battlefield could become major powerhouses with at least become grade six while some of them become grade seven in the realm of legend.

To ordinary people, this is a kind of enticement where they could change their fate and stand among the other significant powerhouses. Still, the death rate of exploring Endless Battlefield is so high that it is almost uncountable.

Combining this with the dimension portal opened in various locations randomly, making the nation unable to control or restrict who is going into the dimension.

As long as they are below fifteen years old, they could go inside this secret dimension. However, entering the dimension and getting out is another matter.

The rumor said that to get into the exit portal of the dimension. Many people need to pass through harsh environments or fighting powerful monsters. This deterrence also the reason why there is a massive casualty.

Soon, the news about the Endless Battlefield dimension comes towards the Heart royal academy. As one of the best academies in the human race, the Royal Academy will naturally send a few volunteer students into the Endless Battlefield.

Unlike the other youngsters, many of the fifteen-year-old students already managed to form their mana core and have more chances to survive inside the dimension. The news about this dimension also reaches Angus and his friend.

Inside the dorm garden, "So, what did you think about it?" asked Jayna while sitting beside Angus.

Hearing Jayna's question, Angus looked at her, "About what?" asked Angus back.

"About the Endless Battlefield dimension that everyone talked about." said Jayna looking back at Angus.

Looking at her round blue eyes, "Silly girl, did you think I let you go inside the dimension alone?" said Angus while patting her head.

While enjoying the patting, "B-But, I hear from my father that the dimension is very dangerous." said Jayna.

"And? Besides, if it is dangerous, you are the one that should not go, not me." replied Angus.

"Ehh.. Of course not. I will go no matter what. Even if my father stops me, I will still go by myself." said Jayna.

"See, then I will just come along with you." said Angus.

"Didn't it better for you to stop me from going?" replied Jayna.

"Stopping you? Pfftt… Like I will do that. Jayna, you are already mature enough to know about the consequences of what you are doing. Besides, I am also interested in this secret dimension." said Angus.

"Ehhh… But you could get yourself killed." said Jayna.

"Hmm… three times." said Angus.

"Sorry?" asked Jayna.

"Three times is the number where I almost died to get my current power. Not to count on all the fights I have been doing till now. Heck, even I risked my life in sparring with the old man Balrug every time." explained Angus.

Hearing this, Jayna couldn't help but be shocked. "And so far, I am still alive. Besides, there is a phrase 'what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.'" said Angus.

"That's absurd. And why didn't you tell me about all of this?" asked Jayna.

"Don't worry. It's all in the past now. Anyway, I also did some research about this Endless Battlefield. Apparently, you could enter the dimension as a group as long as you entered the portal while holding hands or doing something similar." said Angus.

"Should we make some groups?" asked Angus.

"It's better that way, but I don't know other people besides us that will enter the dimension. Furthermore, most students don't have a favorable impression going inside the dimension." said Jayna.

"That's because all of them are weakling." said Ian from far away.

Angus and Jayna already notice his presence a long time ago but decide to ignore him. Both already have a tacit understanding to ignore this prick that always disrupts their time by challenging them to fight.

Ignoring Ian, "So, that means it is just the two of us." said Angus.

"Well, I think that's the best. Since it is not like we need a large group to survive." said Jayna ignoring Ian.

Being ignored by the couple, "Oii.. Stop ignoring me!!" shouted Ian.

"Hmm.. Jayna, did you hear something? I swear I hear a ferocious beast just now." said Angus.

"Yeah, you are right. Maybe we should move to another spot. We don't want to get entangled by a weird beast." replied Jayna in a cold tone.

As the couple moved away, "Oiii.. Where are you two going?" said Ian.

Suddenly, Millie comes towards them.

While looking a little bit nervous, "Umm… Angus, Lady Jayna, are you going to enter the Endless Battlefield?" asked Millie, who is alone without Mia nearby.

Hearing this, the two couples looked at each other, "Yes, we are entering it. Is there any problem, Millie?" asked Angus.

"N-No.. It's just I need… No, Can I come along with you?" asked Millie.

Before Angus and Jayna could answer, "Millie!! There you are. Why did you leave me alone suddenly?" said Mia while approaching the group.

"Ehh… M-Mia.." said Millie.

Looking at Millie's surprised face, Angus feels there is something wrong with this.

"Alright, Millie, why don't you tell us the reason you want to go into the Endless Battlefield?" asked Angus towards Millie.

"Ehh.. Entering the Endless Battlefield? Millie, why did you not tell me about this?" said Mia.

"I-It's…" Said Millie.

Being pressured by everyone, Millie decides to tell all of them the truth. Apparently, Millie's father, Count Golberg, has been getting a rare disease for a few years.

The disease is called Frozen Sleep. This is a rare disease that will erode people's bodies with cold mana every time they sleep.

The body produces the cold mana itself and harms the body slowly. It's a sporadic disease that will torture the patient until they become entirely frozen.

Because of this, Millie's father is already in a precarious state since there is no notable medication available for such a disease. The only reason her father is still surviving all these years is that Count Golberg himself is a powerful grade five with a strong body.

However, his body is also deteriorating over the years while the disease is getting worse. Now, he could only sleep for a few hours. Otherwise, most of his internal organs will be completely frozen.

After a few years of research, Millie found a case for this disease to be cured in some ancient records. According to Millie, there is a herb called Fire Dragon Tongue that could completely heal this disease by consuming it.

However, such a plant is scarce and can be called extinct from Firuman. But, during the last Endless Battlefield, some people manage to procure this extinct herb and sell it for hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

As the news about Endless Battlefield spread around, Millie decided to enter it as her last ray of hope helping her father. She wants to get the herb by herself to cure her father's rare disease.

However, she also knows about her current strength. She is not a battle-oriented person. In fact, She didn't fight the others. So, forget to get the herb by herself. She may get killed the moment she enters the dimension.

In her last hope, she could only ask Angus and Jayna to accompany her as she knows a bit of these two-person powers.

Jayna is already famous for her prowess in the academy and as the first ranker in their year. As for Angus, Millie may not know Angus's true strength, but she knows Angus is not weak as he could easily avoid Jayna's attack in their spar.

So, she is pretty relieved that the couple also decides to enter the Endless Battlefield dimension. She also didn't want to tell Mia about this as she didn't want her best friend to fall into danger. Hearing Millie's story, Mia immediately hugs her best friend.

"Millie, Didn't we have a best friend from childhood. There is no way I will let you go alone." said Mia

"B-But…" said Millie.

"No Buts.. Besides, I also want to enter this secret dimension to improve myself. It just happens you also have a necessity inside the dimension." said Mia resolutely.

Hearing this, Millie knows that Mia actually said this not to make herself more guilty. Soon, Millie's eyes begin moistly, and tears come down from them.

"Miaa…" said Millie while being hugged by her best friend.

Looking at the two girls, "I guess we don't have any choice but to accept them as our party." said Angus while looking at Jayna, who replied with a nod.

"Of course, the more, the merrier, right?" said Ian, who kept listening to the story.

Hearing this, "Say, Jayna, did you hear someone talking?" asked Angus.

"No, but it's possibly the same ferocious beast that we heard last time." replied Jayna.

"Oii.. don't ignore me. I am also going into the Endless Battlefield dimension." said Ian.
