The Only Aura User In Magic World

"I'll try to breakthrough now. Please protect me."

Angela said as she entered the shack after having some light meal before cultivating.

We reached the shack soon after leaving the city. It was easy with the monsters around this area not strong enough to be an obstacle for us.

It was just me and Victoria who fought until we reach our destination. And as usual, our temporary party member get surprised.

Ms. Wendy was so shocked when she heard that Victoria is actually my summon, and even more shocked after knowing that the ghost, Sonia, and the black slime, Victoria, were old friends back when they were both still alive.

Now that Angela is prepared to breakthrough, we have to prepare for the incoming attack.

Luckily, the shack she entered is right next to a cliff on two sides, the north side and the west side. Which means we only have to worry about attack from two directions, east and south. So Ms. Wendy is will be guarding one side, and Sophie and Kayla will guard the other side.

"Ms. Wendy, do you know why those attackers tried to kill everyone who's about to breakthrough?"

Kayla curious about the reason why there are so many cases of mages being killed when they're about to breakthrough.

"I don't know. But I think it's because some people don't want this city to have strong mages. Don't think about that and just concentrate in protecting Angela."

"Is there any obstacle for when we're trying to breakthrough?"

"None that I know of. As long as you have cultivate your magic, you will be able to breakthrough easily."

Ms. Wendy answered all of Kayla's question.

Since there should be some time before the assailants attack, we spend our time chatting. Mostly, we just asked Ms. Wendy some question about magic that wasn't taught at school.

"What about other elements? Are there no obstacle as well?"

This time, I asked Ms. Wendy.

"You have summoning element and air element, right? For summoning element, you just need to have your summon defeat monsters as much as possible. Seeing how Victoria able to defeat monsters easily, I think you just need to wait. As for air element, I don't have any clue about it. Maybe just like ice and other elements, you won't have any obstacles."

I hope she's right.

In my past life, I tried to make Blobby fight against other monsters. Blobby can't kill the monster, and the monster can't kill Blobby. I thought that Blobby must have great defense.

Since summoner can only have one monster, unless they eat Pear-y Fruit, the condition to make contract with another monster is that our summons need to die first. And Blobby is unkillable, so I have no hope in making another monster as my summon.

Blobby is way too weak that Blobby couldn't even defeat her distant cousin, a normal slime. I had no hope in increasing the level of my summoning element at the time.

I only started to use Blobby in the latter year of my life and that's not enough for my summoning level to improve. Even worse is that I only had one element.

Other summoners usually only used their summons only when they are just beginner level mage. And they usually have other elements as well. Once their other elements are improved, most of them would forget about their own summons. Or maybe they would even kill their own summons so they can make contract with new monsters until they got a strong one.

I think I understand why Victoria never appear in my previous live. I tried to kill her a few times just soon after I summoned her. I won't tell her about it though.

Soon, we felt something different coming from the shack. Now Angela is truly about to breakthrough, and her magic is increasing and affecting the surrounding.

"I'll check the area!"

I used my Divine Vision in full power to see the surrounding area if there is someone who felt Angela's magic increase.

I found one! He's about 10 Km from the shack!

He must have felt Angela's magic and about to retreat to inform the others.

If I could kill him before he inform the others, there won't be any attack coming. That's what I thought.

I almost tried to chase after him, but before my legs moved, I saw him talking to four other people. Then they moved separately.

Seems like it will be harder than I thought. Why is there so many people trying to kill one person who's about to level up?

"They found us already! Everyone, guard your post! Victoria! We will go to different area! You will move alongside the cliff to the east, and I will go south! Get behind them and make sure that no one will be able to escape!"

"Roy! How many were there?!" Victoria asked.

I tried to look further, but my eyes can't reach that far. The last thing I see was those scouts who were about to inform the others.

"Let's assume that they have a hundred people."

"Why do we have to assume that much people trying to kill one person?"

"Because we will be happier if we find that the number is actually fewer than that."

"…sound logical. Let's go!"

Victoria is easily convinced by that, while the others seems to be grinding their teeth.

"Let's stay in contact using Sonia! I'll leave this place to you three!"

I left the three and run by the side of the cliff to the south. Victoria did the same to the East. The three who stays won't have to worry about enemies coming from the cliff side.

I ran alongside the cliff and with my Divine Vision, I can see that there are five people running toward the Angela's direction. One of whom is the scout from before.

Just five, huh? As long as they are not too powerful, I can beat them easily. But since I don't know how strong they are, I'll just ambush them with surprise attack.

I jumped from the cliff and stuck my feet on the wall. No one will expect an attack from the cliff.

Once I get into a good position, I waited for them to pass.

I heard them talking while I'm waiting to ambush them.

"Hey, why do we have to kill someone just because they're trying to breakthrough?"

"I don't know! Just ask our boss!"

"This is stupid just to kill them. If they are women, I think we have the right to enjoy them first, right?"

Then I heard loud laughter coming from them.

This means that the boss of this group isn't among those five, huh? I'll just let one live to interrogate later.

"That's what I'm talking about! Why do we have to kill them if we can just let them live? If they're women, we can have some fun. If they're men, we can loot everything they have and let them escape. Then maybe in the future when we meet them again, we can continue take everything from them again and again. One of us is already an Advanced level mage, so it should be easy for us. And we can get rich easily this way."

"…you're right! I'll vote for you to be our next boss! With my powerful magic and you as the leader, we can steal as many things as we want!"

"Thank you. I will make sure everyone is happy!"

""Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!""

Those five are cheering somehow. That's some stupid plan, but they're going to die anyway.

Even if they let their victims live and escape, they won't meet each other again in the future since their victims won't use the same route. And even if they choose the same route, they might bring some people as their guards. How foolish.

Hearing about them looting make me thinks that they're bandits.

I looked into the inside of their mouth and see that they have no explosives inside. Maybe the one who had it is the boss. I'll ask later.

I choose a wrong position for this ambush. I should have been on the other side of the cliff instead of being in a cliff sticking my foot on the wall.

I could have just pushed them down the cliff to keep my stamina.

I need to learn more to have a more tactical mindset.

But I guess it's fine as well since even if I pushed them down the cliff, I won't know if they're still alive or not. I can just kill them here and intimidate the last person so when I interrogate him later, he will comply.

Now then, who's the one with advanced level mage here?

No. I guess the one who I won't kill should be the one with better head than the others. It's the man who will be voted as their boss!

Does bandit has election to choose their leader?

I waited for a while, and once they get past my position, I jumped from the cliff to their backs and swung my spear to cut the necks of four of them. Leaving only one person with his neck intact.

"So easy. Hey, you! I have some question to you. Ans-"

"Alright-alright! I'll tell you everything I knew! I'll tell you where I hid my treasures, and even where you can find a good cheap brothel with extremely beautiful girls is! Just please spare my life!"

How cowardly. I guess he's just someone who thinks he has a good plan, but never actually do something. I haven't finished speaking and he already surrendering himself.

Anyway…

"Then answer my questions. Of course you will tell me where the good brothel is after you answered all my questions honestly. If I think you're lying, your head will be flying."

Although I won't enter brothel again unless it's necessary, that doesn't mean I'm not interested. Even if I already have lovers, I'm still curious.

Of course I won't enter it, but peeping won't be a problem, right?
