The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 325: Finalized the Plan

“Then where will you stay? Are you going to stay here?” I asked.

“No. Can you take me to where one of my brothers is at? The one who loves battle the most. I’ll convince him to join our side.” Prince Fabio said.

“If it’s him, don’t you think that he will join the cult instead? Since the cult is going to fight everyone?” I asked again.

“...I’ll try my best to convince him.” Prince Fabio said without any confidence.

If the guy is a battle-crazed mage like Angela, then I have many ways to convince him. As long as I offer him a good fight, he should join us.

We continued discussing our plan to save King Harold. And we prepared a plan.

First, I will return to Arturo with Prince Fabio who will return as a guard. Then, I will leave the capital and look for Prince Fabio’s battle-crazed brother. I will use portal to make Prince Fabio to go there while bringing Albert as well as a lie detector. We will convince him while making sure that he can be trusted. I hope at least he doesn’t have explosive device in his mouth.

.....

After that, I will return back to the capital again with Prince Fabio. I will go find his other brother who helped Prince Fabio and his sister escape from the castle. But the castle might be heavily guarded, and I can’t just open a portal there. That mean I need to go in alone and ask him everything while telling him that he can trust me. I hope he also doesn’t have explosive device in his mouth. ????????????????eα????. ????????m

And since he’s working in the castle, he might have some guesses where the real king is located. I will also look where he is, but I will still ask him just in case. I can’t bring Albert with me since I can’t use portal, so I need a way to trust him.

After meeting him, I will report to Prince Fabio, get him escape the capital, disguise myself as him, do a big crime that will brand him as a criminal, and escape. Making people think that the guard Fabio is disguised as, escaping from the capital with his sister.

During that Chaos, the security in the castle should be lowered. I will return back to the castle, and save the real king. Maybe find someone who looks similar to the king, kill him, and swap the king’s body with the dead body. The cult will think that King Harold is dead. That way, they won’t think that we have saved the real king.

“By the way, Prince Fabio, is there anyone you know with similar appearance with the king to swap his body with?” I asked.

“The gatekeeper who tried to molest your wife before. If you change his hair color, and make some slight alteration, he will look similar. He can die for all I care. He lets thieves group come in and those thieves would pay him. And stop calling me Prince Fabio. I’m disguising myself, you know?” Prince Fabio said.

“What’s your disguised name then?”

“...Albertus.”

Albert then stand up and make a victory pose.

“My biggest fan. I’ll give you my autograph later.” Albert said proudly. Annoying. Why can’t he call himself Roy or something?

“I called myself with that name so in case I did something wrong, the one who will be blamed is the person called Albert or something similar.”

This time, I’m the one standing up.

“Haha! He hates you!” I pointed at Albert as he slumped on the chair.

“By the way, Celestine wasn’t his wife. They are just disguise to get in the capital.” It was Shirley who explained my relationship with Celestine.

“What? I thought they were married for real!”

“Roy is a good actor.” Shirley said.

I don’t think I have acted all lovey-dovey with Celestine though? What makes him think that we’re married for real?

Well, that doesn’t matter.

“So, once I located the king, I will kill that gatekeeper, get you transported you to your brother’s location, create chaos in the capital under your name, save the king and swap his body.” I said.

“Okay. Shall we go now?” Prince... no. Let’s just call him Fabio. Fabio asked if we should leave now.

“Not yet. But the others will go home though.”

I opened three portals for Albert, Lynn, and Old man to return.

They entered the portal, but before I closed it, Albert said something to me.

“By the way, the battle to decide who is going to be each college’s representatives for the battle tournament has begun in most colleges. Even the one in Cassau.” Albert said.

“Really? Kayla, how’s the result?” I asked Kayla who listened to our discussion the whole time. The others are here as well, but Kayla is the only one who participate in making a plan to save the king.

“It’s positive so far.” Kayla said.

I guess that means all of us are doing well.

But now since the candidates is being selected, and I’m not participating, that mean I won’t enter the tournament. Which is a great news.

“I’ll listen to it after I finish my mission.” I said.

“Oh, By the way, Tatrama will send youngster to fight, huh? For me, the only one candidate who will one hundred percent participating is just my daughter, Julia. Prepare yourself.”

Old man then returned to do his work. And at the other side, Princess Julia is waving her hand.

There’s only one candidate announced, but she’s an expert level mage. I guess that’s normal if he wants his country to be the victor.

“Hmm? What tournament did you talk about?” Fabio asked.

“You don’t know? Is it being kept as secret by the fake king or it hasn’t been announced yet? Well, the tournament is...”

I explained what tournament we are talking about. But as I explained, I realize the possibility of why the fake king didn’t announce the tournament.

...he’s trying to send participants, who are all cult members that he can trust. That’s why he doesn’t bother to tell anyone else. Probably all of them will be expert level mages. And when they kill someone in the tournament, they will just say that it was an accident or something.

The tournament turned dangerous just by Arturo Kingdom participating. But I will trust Kayla and the others who will represent Tatrama in the tournament.

“That’s the first time I heard of this. Just like you said, the fake king will probably send all expert level mages to participate so he can claim victory. And the cult might be using the chance when everyone is focused on the tournament to do big things.” Fabio said.

“Don’t worry. In the first place, I already know the danger of this tournament when we planned it. But if that brother of yours know about this tournament, he will probably try to participate in it no matter what the cost. Am I right?” I asked.

If he’s really like Fabio said, he will join the tournament. But since Fabio doesn’t know about the tournament, there’s a chance that his brother doesn’t know either.

“...we have to go there quickly to convince him before he received the information. He loves fighting too much.” Fabio said.

“A moment please. I need to do some training. Veronica, please.”

I asked Veronica to be my training partner.

“What should I do?” Veronica asked.

“Game of tag. I will find you and try to touch you. You will try sensing my location at all time. I should have done this from the start so I can improve my sneaking ability.” I said.

After that, Veronica leaves. I know where she is, so I just need to get to her and touch her. But that’s the most difficult part since once she notices that I’m approaching, she will escape. I need to bypass expert level mages detection ability.

“Umm... is it necessary to play now?” Fabio asked.

“Veronica is the same as Celestine who stayed behind. They both are expert level mages with ability to detect people approaching. All expert level mages can do that. At least those I have met. This will be a good practice to sneak into the castle. As for you, play with your sister and get to know everyone here. They will be the people you can trust from now on.” I said as I leave to go after Veronica.

It was not easy learning to hide myself from expert level mage. Even with Spot’s camouflage, we were still detected. But once I covered myself with Aura, Veronica had a harder time detecting my presences. But I can’t bring Spot with me since he’s too strong. As for Victoria, since she’s just a slime, she was hard to detect in the first place.

Which mean I have to learn to control my Aura.

After playing tag for two hours, Veronica had a harder time detecting my presence but I still couldn’t touch her. Even the closest one I’ve ever been is five meters from her. At least that’s something.

That mean as long as I’m at least five meters away from other expert level mages, they won’t sense me. I think this is enough to infiltrate the castle, but let’s continue while training just in case. I’ll practice with Celestine there.

“Alright, Fabio, let’s go.”

We returned back to Arturo with plans. Luna waves her hands at her brother who is leaving. She will stay in Cassau with her new friends.

...Daniel, why aren’t you waving your hands? I’m so sad.
