The Only Aura User In Magic World Chapter 69: Victoria's Report

Chapter 69: Victoria's Report

Kron has left Melk today. Since I told him where I will stay in the future, I believe we will see each other again.

Then there's also Victoria. I told her to sneak into Governor's residence, and she hasn't returned yet. Even after more than 12 hours pa.s.sed. But I'm not worried about her. Even if she got caught, she's an immortal slime. I hope she found some evidence about the cult.

My plan today is to go to school like usual. Then I need to go to the circus to collect my payment. Will I get a bonus?

School is over and now I will go to the circus troupe. I heard that they cancelled a lot of events scheduled in Melk because of the orcs attack. If I don't go today, I won't get paid. I need to hurry!

"Roy! Thank G.o.d you're alive! I heard that no casualties in yesterday's attack but I'm still worried about my best clown!"

"What do you mean your best clown? I am the world's best clown. You need to correct your words."

"You're right! I never thought we would have huge success when we decided to perform in this city. But thanks to you, we did really well. If it's not for the food poisoning, you won't perform with us."

"You're grateful half of your member got poisoned? You're really evil."

"That's not what I mean! Anyway, here's your share. You have a hunter's card, right? And since it's thanks to you the tickets got sold out, I'll give you some bonus"

"Thanks!"

I take out my card and touch it with his card. While mine is a hunter's card, he's holding a commonly used card. It was for small business or for personal use that you can get from the bank.

"Gold card? You're a C-rank?"

"Thanks to yesterday's event, my rank raised. I did pretty well on the mission."

"I see. Do you want to continue being a hunter?"

"What? You're trying to scout me into your circus?"

"Obviously!"

"I'll pa.s.s on that. Maybe I'll take part in it from time to time, but I think being a hunter is fine as well."

Actually I really want to let go of this life of killing monsters or humans. But with the cult out there, I won't be able to life my live peacefully knowing that danger is close.

I will think about his offer when the cult is gone. After all, even with all the wealth that I got from diving and treasure hunting, being a clown is much more fun.

"Well, if you need my help in the future, just find me. I'll be moving to Ca.s.sau by next year."

"Ca.s.sau? Maybe we should move there as well. We have saved enough money to build a base in a city but we haven't found a good city yet. If you move there, I think it will be a good idea to set a base there. Although we're mainly a travelling circus, we thought of having a home. So in the future, we will mainly perform in Ca.s.sau and travel from town to town then return to Ca.s.sau after the tour is over."

"Alright. But you don't have to call me every time you're about to perform, alright?"

They were all good people. Since they're going to stay in Ca.s.sau as well, we will meet often there.

They have decided to leave and move to another city after what happened. So this is also a goodbye for now.

We have gotten so close just after one show. And the strongman is actually the one with the softest heart. He cried during our farewell.

Since I have nothing else planned today, I went back to Red Tail and enjoy the rest of the day playing with Daniel. But when I return, somehow the atmosphere is different.

"What's wrong?"

"They left. It's just us here. They said that they're already afraid with the orcs' attack and stayed here when the guild is having an emergency that night. They felt guilty but also scared of the future. They don't want to get involved with danger and decided to leave this morning, just when you leave for school. They didn't want to move with us to Ca.s.sau and choose to go to another city."

"Isn't that fine? I will also think twice if I have to face the danger. Does this mean the rest of us here will move to Ca.s.sau?"

Those who stay here are Sophie, Ruby, Penny, Hannah, and Daniel. All the other girls have left. They either left with their boyfriend, or left on their own. Now the building has gotten quieter.

"Then, I take it that everyone here has chosen to move to Ca.s.sau?"

"Yes. I'm your girlfriend so it's obvious. Since you obviously will take Daniel with you, Ruby is worried about him if you decided to travel. Penny thought that staying with you is safer so Hannah and Penny will move as well."

"That's fine. I guess my plan to build a clan will be delayed if we only have this many people, but building a clan is not important. I just want to build a safe place for people around me."

I still haven't gotten any news from Sam and Lina about the place they're trying to get me. Maybe I should visit them? I think I'll leave tomorrow. And this time, I will ask the Angela, Kayla, and Sophie to come with me. To find us a new house in Ca.s.sau. And I think it's about time I go for another treasure hunt.

I asked Sophie to tell the girls while I played with Daniel. Then just before dinner, she returned and said everyone will come. Of course I also told Daniel that I will leave again, and Ruby will take care of him.

I'm not a really good brother, aren't I? Although I decided to take him in, I always travel all the time and leaving everything to Ruby. But I can't just bring him with me. The only thing I can do is to play with him whenever I'm home.

Then late at night, Victoria returned.

"How is it?"

"I found some evidence about their plans. They write down their plans but none of them have any names of the involved members included. Just about what, when, and how they will attack."

"Let's see…"

She brought several doc.u.ments home with her. I took one of them and read it. It's about the plan to attack Melk using monsters in few months. There are also several others plan involving other city. There's also a paper about monsters experiment.

"d.a.m.n. These are enough to have the governor executed. How did you get these? Did you copy them all?"

"No. just the first page. The governor write down everything on paper and left it for the higher up of the cult to read in case he's busy. But they didn't read it at all and just patiently waited until the governor is done with his business and he will tell them directly. It happened yesterday and today is the same.

Then seeing that his higher ups didn't even touch the papers, he just burn them without taking another glance. So what he burns are just blank paper other than the first page."

"I see… thanks for all this. But do you know about the Orc Emperor incident?"

"Yes. They send someone to destroy the Orc Emperor's body. Even if you choose to leave, they will still take care of it. They are just being careful to not let anyone see the corpse and find something unusual. And what was told to the governor is that the Orc Emperor died because of magic combination between fire and wind, then someone come and destroy the corpse. They don't know about your strength. But they know about your involvement. They decided to leave you all alone because if you need magic combination to defeat the Orc Emperor, you are seen as weaklings. Seems like they have someone extremely powerful behind them. Possibly, a Master level mage."

"Thanks. You did a lot today. By the way, tomorrow we all will go to Ca.s.sau."

"Treasure Hunting? I'm in!"

"Of course. And you also want some pocket money, right? I think it's a good idea for you to be in your human form tomorrow and register to the guild. That way you can have your own card."

"That's great! That mean I can get some money on my own!"

"Just be careful to not let anyone know that you're a slime. It's better if you team up with the girls when I'm not around."

"Sure! What about these doc.u.ments? Will you give them to your teacher? The one who's actually a secret agent?"

"No. I think I'll give them to the king myself. I think I will go to the capital after spending some time in Ca.s.sau. I need a disguise to hide my ident.i.ty. You will help me with that."

"Sure! I will transform into a full body armor with helmet. All black. Wait and see."

She transformed and envelop my whole body with hers. She also cover my face with a helmet. I think this is a perfect disguise.

"I call it-"

"No. Don't use any name from your world that I might not understand. Just use a simple one people can remember."

"Fine. Let's just call yourself Dark Armor."

"I'm fine with it. It's simple."

"How about 'Kuro'? It's another language in my world. It means black. Although you say no to a name from my world, just this much is fine, right? It's also shorter than Dark Armor and also easy to remember."

"…fine. Then Kuro shall be my alias when we're combined like this."

And so, I prepared another disguise for when I decided to meet the king.
