The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 127: Going Home Separately

The wedding is over and it’s time to return back to the inn. The kids are all tired and sleepy so the girls left early. Ruby and Ian stay for a while longer since they are the protagonists of today’s event. They also went to help cleaning up the place.

As for me, the reason I’m still here is because Marie is reluctant to separate with Lana. I’m just here until she can let Lana go since we might not meet for a while again. Shirley returned to her room to prepare to leave tomorrow with me and the others to Cassau.

So it’s just Albert and I chatting whatever topic both of us interested in.

“See? The word ‘Kidnap’ and ‘Babysit’ are similar. Kidnap can be separated into two words which is ‘Kid’ and ‘Nap’. And babysit also the same. ‘Baby’ and ‘Sit’. Baby and kid are similar in which their meaning is young children of which baby is usually younger. As for nap and sit, both of them are verbs in which both means an action one do to rest. So why is ‘Babysit’ and ‘Kidnap’ mean totally different thing? And why can’t it be ‘Babynap’ or ‘Kidsit’?” I asked some real question there.

“Now that you mention it, doesn’t it mean that you’re kidnapping my daughter? As for their meaning... I guess it’s the fact that one of them is done forcefully.” Albert’s reply make me realize it.

“I see. I guess you are indeed smart.”

“I’m a king after all.”

.....

The topic of our conversation varies too much that now we ended up talking about language.

“You two, how can you talk about so many useless things? Why are you two discussing about the words ‘Kidnap’ and ‘Babysit’?”

Marie interrupted our conversation.

“Marie, are you done saying farewell to Lana?” I asked Marie who’s still carrying Lana. As for Alan, he has been listening to our conversation in Albert’s arm.

“Not yet.”

“Yes. That’s why I’m chatting with Albert about many things. I’m bored so I just talked about stupid things with the lonely king over here.” I replied.

“And I have a good reason for me to enjoy talking with a friend.” Said the king who never had any friends.

...what a sad reply.

“You two keep me here because you don’t want to separate with Lana, but what about Shirley? She’s also going to leave, you know?”

Does Shirley actually not loved by these two?

“Shirley always wanted to leave. Ever since long time ago, she long to be free and not be used as a political tool. But I always worry about her since she has no experience in the outside world at all. Then as Marie got pregnant, we decided to allow her once my kids are born. And you come in a timely manner. Since you have a lot of girl friends around her age, it will be great if she get along with you all. And I can trust you to take care of her.”

Just as Albert finished explaining, Shirley returned.

“I’m fine even if I’m going on my own, you know? It’s just that since being with you is more convenient, I’ll be joining you.”

“Yeah. It’s good to have another babynapper.” I said.

“You mean kidnapper? Sorry. Babysitter?”

“I thought we had that discussion already!”

“Don’t get angry! I forgot since it was a long time ago.”

“It’s barely five minutes since we talked about it!”

How could this king forget about what we discussed? Now I’m worried if it’s a good idea to leave the kingdom in his hand.

“By the way, when will you leave?” Shirley asked me.

“Probably tomorrow afternoon. We need to discuss our plan in the morning after all.”

“What plan?”

“I’m planning on leaving on my own to Cassau and train on the way. Kayla and Angela suggested that they do the same. Then we need someone to go along with Daniel and the other to return to Cassau right away. We will discuss who going where tomorrow morning.”

“We’re not leaving together?”

“No. After finding some clues about who our enemy is, we realized that we are far too weak against them. It’s a good idea to train on our way home.”

Soon, Marie finally said farewell to Lana who has already fall asleep. I carried Lana with me and Shirley tagged along to the inn where we stay since it’s better for her to leave from the inn tomorrow than leaving from the palace and being seen by someone.

We return to the inn and luckily, the innkeeper still allowed us to rent another room for Shirley even though it’s late. He’s a good guy. Although I never know what his name is.

The next morning, I was awaked by everyone who somehow gathered in my room.

“Why are you all here? This place is too cramped.” I said as I rubbed my eyes.

“Change of plan. We need to leave the capital as soon as possible. Albert told me that there are some activities among noble when they noticed that Shirley wasn’t in the palace.” Sonia reported about what Albert told her.

“Then she can just return to the palace.”

“I won’t return. I’ll be going with you to Cassau and build a clan.” Shirley refused my idea.

“Tch, Fine! For now, the non-combatant will go to Cassau right away. Daniel, Hannah, Penny, Sam, and Ruby will leave while Ian will guard them. Oh, right. Sam’s new employee will come along as well. Since he was a former agent, he should be able to fight decently. You will go through the main road so I hope there won’t be much trouble there.”

I don’t know how strong Ian is, but he should be strong enough to protect everyone together with Sam’s new employee.

“Then Lina. You will also go with them. But leave your summon with me. It will be a good idea to get your summon stronger. Since I will be with Sunny, Sunny can be the one who finished the monsters I defeated and Sunny can get stronger faster.”

“Okay. Come out, Sunny!”

Lina summoned Sunny in a vase and put it on the table. We will get along from now on, Sunny.

“Then the rest can go their own way home and practice with our new friend, Shirley. But be careful. Even if you have an advanced level mage with you, there are still danger everywhere.” I looked at Shirley. Although Candy is also an advanced level mage, no one knows that Shirley has also reached advanced level.

“How did you know that I have reached advanced level?”

“You’re holed up in your house with a lot of resources. And you want to be independent. The easiest way to be independent from your royal family is to be stronger. I just guessed that you have reached advanced level. Which elements of yours is it? I don’t think it’s the ice element.”

“It’s the Wind Element. I can fly now.” Shirley replied.

“Nice. Just be careful on the way. By the way, Sophie.” I called out to Sophie who has been quiet all the time.

“What is it?” Sophie asked.

“You can choose whichever side you want to join. I now that among us, you are the one who hate fighting the most. You don’t have to force yourself.”

“Thanks, Roy. But I’ll join with Kayla. Even if I hate fighting, being stronger is always a good thing. Isn’t that what you taught us?”

How do I say it? I forgot that I taught them about it. Let’s pretend that I remember.

“As long as you want to, you can choose to do whatever you want. Lastly, Victoria... you can do whatever you want.”

“I’ll join with the girls for a while then I’ll leave on my own. If you need any help, just summon me.”

I don’t need to worry about Victoria. And if she choose to go on her own, I’m the one who benefit from it since her time to stay will get longer, and my summoning element can soon be improved.

“That’s the plan. I’ll be leaving after I wake up again from my second sleep. No need to wait for me. You can leave whenever you want.”

And so, I wrapped the blanket around me again and tried to go back to sleep. After I wake up, I’ll be leaving on a journey with Sunny. I hope Sunny will be a good conversation partner. She can’t talk? Then she can just be a good listener.

“Is he always like this?” Shirley who still doesn’t know me as well as the others asked.

“Just get used to it. By the way, Roy, can we have Lina go with us? Since Daniel already leaving with a butler, I thought it’s a good idea to have a maid with us.”

Angela asked for my permission.

“Just go ask her. Don’t force her if she doesn’t want to go with you. And if she agree, you need to do your best to protect her since her summon is with me.”

Then Shirley asked me something.

“Roy. I know you’re strong, but are you sure you can go alone?”

“If I go with someone else, I’ll just end up leaving the fight to them. That’s just how my personality is and I can’t myself train that way. Don’t worry, I’m not alone. I have Sunny with me. And you can contact me via Sonia. If something happened to any of you, I’ll rush to your side as soon as possible.”

I hope it won’t come to that.

As soon as we made our plan, everyone left my room and I return to my sleep.
