The Only Aura User In Magic World Chapter 314: Saving the King

Chapter 314: Saving the King

If I had known that things are going to turn this way, I wouldn't have asked Veronica, Angela, and Spot to split up.

Two expert level mages in the capital? And there's a chaos?

Now that I think about it, I don't think I saw old man Henry when I used portal on his chamber. He must be busy protecting the capital. I hope he is well-protected by someone he can trust. In this moment, if one of his children who has joined the cult approaches him, his life will be in danger.

What about the monsters hiding under some houses? I should have checked from the ground instead of the sky as expected. There are some areas that I haven't checked, so those monsters must be appearing around that part of the capital.

But… there are no monsters being held near the castle. I've been looking around there for a while, and I know there's nothing worth mentioning. Maybe I saw some monsters, but those are either tamed or contracted as the owner's summon. But if what Sonia said is true, the monsters that being released are neither tamed or summoned. And they were being hidden deep in the bas.e.m.e.nt.

"Sonia, tell the old man to hide somewhere safe alone first. I'll open a portal directly toward Spot, then Veronica, and Angela. Tell me once he's in a safe location. I'll have Veronica and Angela transported to his location. After that… what about the Werewolves? Shelia is inside the city. If Kayla told her to howl, the other Werewolves would hear it." I asked.

"She has howled. That's what Jewel told me." Sonia said.

Does it mean that princess Julia, Kayla, Candy, and Shelia are together, while Jewel contacted me? Must be so.

If Kayla decide to have one of them escape, that mean they are possibly in danger. And it's two expert level mages. I hope princess Julia can hold them back.

After Sonia disappear, I opened three portals right away. With how much magic power I have, I can open several portals simultaneously. But it used too much magic, so I limit it to three. The location where the portals are connected, is where each of my groups that got split up before go.

The three of them entered the portals, with Spot reducing his size to easily enter the portal, and asked me what's going on.

"Roy, why did you call us? Is there something happening?" Angela asked.

"Trouble in the capital. Angela, you help Kayla and the others right away. Veronica, you will protect the king with Spot. Now, we wait for Sonia to return telling us he's in a safe spot. I'll open a portal to where Victoria is."

Just as Victoria and the others with her, who are fortunately not separated, entered the portal, Sonia appears. I don't have time to tell Victoria's group what happened. I'll tell her later.

"Roy, the king is safe but not safe. He's surrounded by his guards and he is being put together with his children in the audience chamber. You can't open a portal directly there." Sonia said.

"Then change of plan. I will go to old man's place with Spot, while Veronica and Angela will be transported to Jewel's location. As for Victoria and the others, you will return to the capital from different location. I'll open a portal to the inn Celestine and I stayed in. Ask Sonia what happened. Good luck!"

Without letting them ask me questions, I told them where to go. Sonia will inform them what happened, and they can decide what to do by themselves.

I opened two portals, and let them leave first.

"Spot, let's go as fast as you can to the castle." I said.

"So, we're raiding a castle?" Spot asked.

"Hmm… that's right. Let's go!"

With the others already in the capital, the situation hopefully won't get worse. I don't know if the people can get to safety. Or even if the guards can protect them.

Seems like having the Werewolves entered the city is a miscalculation. Though if thing didn't go this way, the whole kingdom won't know how close they are to get taken over.

Oh, right! There's another thing I can do! Let's call Sonia again!

"What is it this time?"

Sonia appears in front of me while we are in the sky.

"Tell Albert the situation, and have him prepare our allies to get here. Those who were in the training camp. Have them disguise themselves so no one knows that Tatrama Kingdom is unrelated to the situation."

"So, more reinforcements, huh?" Sonia said.

"Maybe. Tell him that I will only open a portal if the situation is too dangerous for us alone to make our move. So, it might be a false alert. Also tell him that I might send old man to his location."

"Understood."

Even though I said that it will turns dangerous, I hope it won't turn that way.

I can see the castle now, and there are too many people inside the audience chamber. Why is no one fighting instead?

"Spot, don't go too fast now. Stay floating here. I want to see the situation." I said to Spot who instantly stopped.

In the city, I can see Jewel in hiding, and some Werewolves fighting. The citizens are panicked, and locked the door. But the battle sometime destroyed their houses. I think casualties are unavoidable.

I can't see Kayla and the others. They must be fighting outside the range of my Divine Vision. What a huge city. Though Veronica would help them soon.

The biggest problem is for the citizens, the guard, and everyone else to know which side is the good one. The one we're fighting is the cult member who should have been staying in the capital for a while. If they interact with the people regularly, they will be seen as the good side. But our side has the princess.

Sigh… there's no need to think about them now. The old man's life is more important.

In the audience chamber… everyone other than the king himself has explosive device inside their mouth. The king is trapped, but it seems like those people has no intention to tell the old man as he's still acting calm.

There are some guards who are not cult members as well, or I hope that's the case. But the closest one to old man Henry who sat on the throne are his children. A son, and a daughter. But they seem to be wary of each other. I guess even cult members don't know of other members in the cult.

"Spot, let's just barge into the chamber. You will slam your body to the one on old man Henry's left, and I will go to the right. After that, we will protect him."

With Spot's speed, even expert level mage won't realize what hit them. If there are any expert level mage here, I will let Spot fight them as I protect old man.

Spot smashed the wall of the castle and charge through everything, and as we are right in front of old man, I jumped to the right while Spot moved to the left. Both of us easily knocked down the two beside the old man. But the room is still filled with people from the cult.

"Your Majesty! Who are you!? Why are you taking his majesty as your hostage!? What is your demand!?" One person who seems to be a n.o.ble in high position shouted.

And then, everyone getting ready to fight. From what I see, it looks like there's only one person who is experienced in a real fight. It's one of the guards. Fortunately, or unfortunately, that man doesn't have explosive device in his mouth.

'Roy, thank you for saving me. Everyone here is the ones that you told me have explosive device in their mouth. Seems like they can't wait any longer to take control of this kingdom.' Old man Henry said to me in a whisper.

'Yeah, but how do we escape from this place? We're surrounded. The only thing I can do is to not let anyone kill you. By the way old man, do you have any ideas?' I asked the old man.

'Leave it to me.' Old man said calmly. I guess he has a plan to save his own life now that I'm here.

"Hey! All of you, s.h.i.+tty b.a.s.t.a.r.ds who thinks of taking over this kingdom! Do you think I don't know that you are all members of the cult!? I'll tell you what, you are too late to act! This man here is my reinforcement! Don't you know that I have been discussing alliance with other kingdoms? He's the one who was sent to find any traitors in my kingdom and kill them all! Even if you are my own children, my own blood, there's no mercy to those who betrays the kingdom. Kill them all, Joy!"

Old man shouted to tell everyone what our plan will be. I guess Joy is what my nickname will be in this kingdom. But…

"What the h.e.l.l, old man! You want me to kill everyone here!? Are you crazy!? Can't you see how outnumbered we are!?" I shouted back to the old man who gave me difficult job. Why does things always turn bad whenever I'm involved?

"This much is nothing though. Look at this." Spot said.

Then Spot takes a deep breath and… I guess the next move is predictable.

I jumped and grabbed the old man to protect him from Spot's breath attack which killed more than half of the people here. His breath attack continues toward the mountain area where I was before, and destroyed it.

…I guess this job is doable.
