The Only Aura User In Magic World

I left the arena and school just like that. Now, no one will questions me why I skipped class. I have a sound reason as to why. Everyone must have seen it. It's sad that I won't be greeted with a nod by the nodding guy ever again, but my future is at stake.

Seems like they're announcing the evaluation. Angela must be praised by teachers now. Seeing how she can use rapid fireball at me, everyone must have thought that she's a genius. But only Angela and Kayla knows that I am the reason she got stronger.

I also taught Kayla about Light and Healing magic. She improved a lot ever since. As for Earth magic, I can just let Angela told Kayla what I taught her since they both have earth element magic.

It's still eleven o'clock. Usually the school will end at one o'clock. This is the first time I left school early.

The school only teach the students for five days a week. From Monday to Friday. And today is Friday.

Usually we went to the guild and look for missions after school, but since today is a sparring events, I told them that we will take a break today and return on Monday. We would take jobs only on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday since I told them to rest or practice during the other days. So they usually training on the days we're not taking any mission to improve their physical ability just like I told them to.

Since it's the first time I left school early, let's take a walk around the city.

I know most of the people's face around the city. Not the way I wished it to be though. It was after the cult's attack. The guild ask the survivors to collect the dead bodies. And I see most of the townspeople after their death. It was a terrible experience.

It's good that I know their faces. Which means they are the victims and not a part of the cult. For those whose face I don't recognize, they are suspicious. Well, not all of them is suspicious. But at least I need to check their movement.

"Roy. You really like patrolling in the city, huh?"

Out of a sudden, Blobby—no, Victoria spoke to me. Usually she would only appear if I have questions, but I haven't asked her any questions today so this is a rare occurrence.

"I'm just looking for unfamiliar faces. The city will be attacked in nine month so those whose face I have never seen in this city during my previous life, are suspicious. If possible, I'd like to destroy their plan to attack this city before it happen, but that is seems unlikely."

"Why?"

"Even if I did, the cult will grow suspicious of the city and may end up sending more reinforcements. During my previous life, they only attack this city just to introduce themselves to the world. They have no other reason to attack. But if I destroy their plan during the attack, their cult will still be well-known, but this city will be known to be powerful as well. That's why I'm on patrol to see suspicious people. Just in case they changed their schedule because I changed something in this life."

"I see. I'll support you all the way to defeat those people. I can sense that you will gain Aura soon. When the time come, I will teach you more about Aura."

"Okay. Thanks!"

She said that I will have my Aura soon. What a surprise! It's only been a little bit over a month and I have already made a great improvement! And now I also have a teacher who will make my progress move smoothly. But I mustn't get cocky. The reason I got returned back in time was because I got too cocky with my power and then I lose in the war. Even if I got Aura, I must still continue to progress to be stronger.

As I think to myself, I saw a face I know from my previous life. He's not from the victims of the cult. He's from the cult himself!

He's with someone I don't know and walking pass by me. I pretended to ignore them. When they can't see me, I turned around and sneakily follow them. Seems like I will get a clue about their plans in this city.

I saw them entering a restaurant and I followed them enter soon after waiting for a minute outside. They were talking about something I can't hear about in the table at the corner of the restaurant. I sit at two table next to them and while they're not looking, I threw Blobby after transforming her to the size of a pebble under their table. I can just let Blobby listen to their conversation, and ask Victoria later.

Although my hearing has improved, I still can't hear them when they speak in whispers. That's why I threw Blobby to eavesdrop them. I also ordered some food so they will only think that I'm just a customer here.

They finished their meals quickly and left soon after. I asked Blobby to stick on their clothes and follow them. I also finished my meal and leave the restaurant to stalk them.

And…they entered the Governor's house! Does it mean the Governor is involved with the attack?

I jumped to the rooftop and find a way to enter the Governor's house without anyone noticing. It's hard to follow them inside the house, so after I entered the house, I unlock several windows so I can have a way in and out of the place, and I waited until night at the rooftop of the house. The back of the house is facing the backyard and since there's no one there at this time, I waited at the rooftop facing the backyard.

I waited until midnight and summoned Blobby at the rooftop.

"Victoria! Tell me what you've heard!"

"Damn! You threw me so I can eavesdrop on them? But it's a good idea so I'll let it go. I don't have much time so I'll summarize it. They are planning to attack the city! They will throws some kind of potion all over the city to attract monsters here! They will wait until they finished the potions to make their members won't get attacked by the monsters first. And they will finish in about nine month just like you said. The governor is part of the cult and other than the two who I followed and the Governor himself, the ones here are all new members of the cult. They all will be tested tomorrow in the forest for battle. I think that's your best chance to finish the, if you want to stay discreet."

"Okay, let's prepare for tomorrow. Let's find an inn that's still open and rest for now."

I agree with Victoria to kill their new members tomorrow. If it's the forest, no one will find out that I'm the one who killed them all.

I left the spot to look for a place to rest. I can just sleep in the street, but since tomorrow is a big day, I need to sleep in a place where I can rest well. There's no inn that's still open, but there are a lot of brothel so I enter one and go directly to the receptionist.

"Excuse me. I just need a place to sleep so can I rent one room?"

"Sorry, handsome. We can't do that. We have a rule that you can only rent a room with a girl from this establishment. You can't just rent a room so you can sleep here," replied the receptionist.

"That's fine. Just get me a girl who seems tired today and tell her that she doesn't need to do anything to me. We will just sleeping together."

The receptionist seems surprised hearing my request.

"…This is the first time we have such request in this establishment since I took over this place. Hmm… deal! There's one girl who seem tired lately since her reputation is soaring and many men came here just for her. I'll lend you that girl. Here's the key to your room. Just wait there. As for the fee, it's…"

She told me how much the price and I paid her. Then I enter the room provided by her. As for waiting for the girl? There's no need to since we're just going to sleep.

I laid on the bed and think about what happened today. I followed the man from the cult and ended up knowing the Governor is related to the cult.

And tomorrow is the entrance exam for the new members? They have an exam? Seriously?

I guess they did it to see whether the newbie can actually kill or not. I don't think the test is about killing monsters so maybe they will kill each other or targeting someone. As soon as I wake up, I will check the forest. Maybe they are hiding something in the forest as well.

Well, for now let's sleep. I need to have all the energy needed for tomorrow.

As I closed my eyes, I heard someone entering my room. She must be the tired girl I asked for.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Sophie."
