The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 498: More Incoming

Two out of the five well-coordinated mages have been defeated. There’s only three more, but I don’t need to help. Still, if there’s a chance, I won’t miss it.

Only the ice mage, fire mage, and lightning mage left. Their defense should be easy for the werewolves to break.

Maybe I should help them by killing the Lightning Woman first. She has the most firepower.

While those three are in shock when they see two of them got defeated, I threw Reizpear at the Lightning Woman and killed her. Leaving the Fireman and Iceman left.

I approached the Lightning Woman’s body to retrieve Reizpear, and left this area. Only two more. There’s no need for so many of us to be here. And so, I left this place and do other things. Watching the enemies and my friends fighting.

I will watch and see as much as possible. Are we winning? How many casualties? And also, to see if the bodies lying on the ground are truly dead or not.

Right now, the enemy no longer has the advantage in number. We have killed half of them. I don’t think the others will need my help, but I will still watch the battlefield.

.....

Oh? Seems like Jewel has reached expert level in her lightning element. She defeated another expert level lightning mage on her own. Jewel also didn’t use her Beastform magic.

Well, if she did, everyone will know her identity. After all, there’s no other Beastform mage who would pick a rhinoceros as their transformation. Unless they awakened their Beastform element some time after watching Jewel fought. I think they will be popular soon.

Now I started imagining that there’s an army of rhinoceros coated with not just lightning. But also coated in fire, ice, or even flying rhinoceros with wind magic in the war against the cult. That will be hilarious.

I wonder if there will be an army of hippopotamus. That will be even funnier.

Wait, now is not the time for my imagination to run wild. Now that Jewel has became even stronger, the chance of us losing the fight against the cult will be smaller. Though Jewel and those who participated in the tournament might not participate in the war soon. I will try my best to make sure they won’t get involved and can just focus on the tournament.

From Consenza, Celestine will participate. She will disguise herself so the cult won’t notice her. though it’s just adjusting the size of her breasts.

From Varadis, Julia, old man Henry’s daughter, will participate. Those two, and the mages they take with them, will be a great match against Angela and the others. I heard that those two will not hold back. Just what we expect them.

Though I hope they won’t get injured too much in case the battle still not over yet after the tournament is finished.

Oh, I found someone playing dead. It’s the companion of the woman I saw today. Let’s kill him. He must be wondering why this happen while playing dead. He’s just here because his big sister wanted to join the cult so she can be an expert level mage. But that chance will never come.

I pity him to come here not by his own will. But the fact that he’s here doesn’t change. He will be killed just like the others here.

I approached the guy, and he’s visibly shaken. He never thought that he would hear someone walking casually to his location in the middle of a big battle. Seems like he’s just a coward who had no choice but to be a criminal under that criminal woman. Well, he will still be killed.

I raised my Reizpear with the blade pointing down, and pierced the man’s chest from the back.

“Ugh... Why...?”

“Hmm? Why what?” I asked.

“Why... did this... happen?”

“Why do you think this won’t happen? You decided to ally yourself with a criminal who has a bounty in her head. And you decided to accompany her to join the Evil God Cult. Why do you think you won’t be killed?” I asked.

“...This is... the Evil... God... Cult...?”

Or at least that’s what we called it. After Shirley’s speech back in Melk after the Stampede, we somehow get everyone to call the cult as Evil God Cult.

“Even if you don’t know, you should have known that they are evil. They killed your other companion today. You saw it yourself, right? After all, the person who did it killed your ally in front of you. Well, your life will end soon. No more questions. Goodbye.”

I pulled Reizpear out of his back, and the man’s heart no longer beating.

...Is there any point to me talking to a dead guy? Maybe it’s because I’m so lonely now. It has been so long since I don’t have Victoria by my side. I wonder if her research will bear fruit?

I can only put my trust in her and Marie. They should be able to figure something out.

Now, I need to continue watching the battlefield. There are still some people playing dead. No one noticed that they are still alive. That’s why it’s my job to kill them.

Oh, there are quite a lot of them playing dead. Most of them are the criminals who are going to be recruited by the cult. But there are some people with explosive devices in their mouth playing dead. They are willing to take their own life, but still choose to play dead? I’ll help them so they won’t be playing anymore. They will die for real.

I also watched how the others are doing. Seems like there are some who faces quite capable mages. But our side are much more capable. Which mean as long as the enemy is not artificial master level mages or a real master level mage, we can defeat anyone. Though if they put children or innocent people as shields, we won’t be able to fight well. It’s a good thing that Sara and I can snipe from afar. This way, we can target the real enemies even if they took hostages.

Even now, Sara is sniping the enemies from afar. Using earth magic to hide herself underground, she sniped the enemy one by one. She will be important for the war. Maybe I need to go back to college to see if there’s any talented sniper as well. I’ll ask Sara later.

As I finished taking care of all those who were playing dead, the others also finished the last remaining enemies. No survivor among the enemies. Only dead bodies.

Everyone then gathered around me. No casualties at all. Only some small injuries that don’t even need to be healed by Kayla. Just some bandages and it will be fine. Though I still tell Kayla to heal everyone with Area Heal.

“Why? They can be healed without my magic,” Kayla asked.

“I know. But you will participate in the tournament. Just having a bandage will make the opponents think of them as your weakness. Also, some of the smarter cult members will start guessing why you get injured. Why would someone who participate in the tournament be injured when there’s only weak monsters near the capital? They will start consider that fact with the fact that many cult members have gone missing from the capital. They will start thinking that you are involved with the missing cult members,” I said.

“That’s true. I’ll use Area Heal. Everyone, gather together. Though the werewolves don’t have to since they can heal themselves,” Kayla said.

Kayla used Area Heal and everyone in the area had their injuries healed. Even my fatigue is slowly disappearing. Although I don’t feel much fatigue, it will still add up if I’m not rested.

“Okay. All the people here have been defeated. Let’s wait here for a while to see if there will be more enemies coming or not. Tell me if you want to go home. I’ll open a portal if you want to,” I said.

None of them want to go home as they started chatting and relaxing. Even in the middle of dead bodies. I guess I should take care of the dead bodies first.

I asked some werewolves to gather all the dead bodies in one place, and then I opened a portal and drop them all into the ocean. They won’t be missed.

“Are you sure that you don’t smell anyone escaping?” I asked Jack.

“No, my king. No one escaped. All of them have been killed,” Jack said.

“Alright. Let’s wait here for a while, and if no one sense anyone coming, I will return you. As for me, I will camp here tonight,” I said.

Now, there’s no more dead body. Though the smell of blood is still thick. I only use air magic to block the smell for me and the humans. As for the werewolves, it’s a bad idea to block their sense of smell. Let them suffer!

Actually, they enjoy the smell of blood. Especially if they are the blood of the enemies they defeated. What a crazy species.

Just as we were relaxing while playing card games, Shelia reacted.

“Someone coming. Two people. From over there,” Shelia said.

I used Divine Vision to see the location she pointed to, and see two people walking this way. And those two noticed that I’m looking at them.

I guess the night is not over yet.
