The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 504: It’s Time to Move

Finally, it’s the day for me to leave. Today is not the day of the opening ceremony for the tournament. But today, Albert and old man Henry are already here with Lynn. I have brought them from their home country, and they have replaced their substitute that were sent here.

“I have asked many things to the Professor, and some of the cult members that you caught. The plan won’t change. I have told my army who are hiding near or in the capital to leave and stop the cult members approaching in discreet. Roy, are you sure the fake king of Arturo is here?” Albert asked me.

“Yeah. They should be at the gate by now,” I said.

Before I transport Albert and old man Henry here, I was outside the capital. Looking for the carriage from Arturo. And it’s finally here. The fake king has arrived. Accompanied only by expert level mages. Everyone other than the fake king should be expert level mages.

I know it because there are no one inside the carriage that can tell I’m looking at them. So, I pretend to be a hunter and walked within the range of their detection skill. All of them, except for the fake king, are expert level mages.

Which mean, just Veronica and Mustache should be enough to fight them in case Albert, Lynn, or old man Henry are attacked during the tournament since they will be seated in the same room. Candy and Wendy won’t participate as they will check the audience if any of them is suspicious.

And for the participant from Tatrama, other than my friends, Albert sent some other agents that the others know to fill the number. Good luck to them all.

.....

“Old man, how about you? Do Marie and Victoria invented something new?” I asked old man Henry.

“That seems to be the case. But the experiment is still going on. They said that if you find any kids in the cult, you should open a small portal to Victoria. If you don’t see any kids, you don’t need to call her,” old man Henry said.

“Understood. Where should I go now, Albert?” I asked Albert.

“Old man has sent his army to where the cult is supposed to be camping. Somewhere between here and Lenko. As for you, you will go to where my army is, and transport them all to Lenko city. I have asked Spot to be our ride. With his full size, he should be able to bring the whole army on his back,” Albert said.

So, Spot is waiting in Lenko? It has been a while since I last saw him. I heard that he’s doing well helping Harold and the others.

“Oh, right. What about Harold and the others?”

I’m curious about the state of Arturo. Harold should be attacking the capital right around this time.

But the kingdom is not just the capital. There should be other cities in Arturo that have been infested by the cult members. Even if Harold managed to retrieve the capital back and return to the throne, his battle won’t be over yet.

“Thanks to Toni’s help, the capital of Arturo is already under his control. We made sure to get him as many supports as we can afford, so they will stop any news about it to leave during the tournament, or the battle you will be facing. It’s to make sure that Harold will have enough power to stop more invasion from other cities that have been conquered by the cult,” Albert explained.

Seems like I underestimated Harold and the kings. Just because I’m from the future where they lost, that doesn’t mean they will lose this time. They are all exceptional kings. Though I don’t know about Lynn. But at least she has a capable subordinate that we can trust.

“That mean I have to finish the battle as soon as possible, right? That might be difficult depending on how many mohawks they are sending,” I said.

“Yes. But you can get the werewolves, angels, and vampires to help you. It should be fine,” old man Henry said.

“If the enemy has a summoner with strong summoned monster, we might get a lot of casualties. Even a few nights ago, we lost few werewolves against two mohawks and a giant,” I said.

“...Casualties are something unavoidable during war. The result is what matters. Everyone who will join the battle know that. They are willingly risking their lives for their country or their loved ones. This is a battle that we can’t lose no matter what,” Albert said.

I know. Well, let’s not care about other people. Just kill the cult members.

I put on Blobbyarmor. I received more clones of Victoria, and have the leeway to create something like this. Old man Henry delivered it to me after I transported him here.

How dare a slime get a king to be a courier! That’s very Victoria. And me.

About the plan, it will be a pincer attack. Old man Henry’s army will stop the cult approaching from the front, while I and Albert’s army will attack from Lenko’s direction.

Once we see the enemies, I will open portals to call the angels, werewolves, and vampires. I hope we have enough people.

From the information Albert has gathered from the Professor, the cult members are gathering in a camp, away from the capital. And in during the final match of the tournament, they will march toward the capital.

Which mean, they are still waiting for everyone to arrive.

The plan is to defeat everyone right away, and wait for the rest of the enemies to come. This way, we might also find where their headquarter really is.

By defeating the enemies in the camp, the next one to appear should be coming from where the headquarter is. We will get Elsie to watch where they came from, and have someone followed the trail. I hope we can find where they are hiding.

Stopping the cult’s plan to kill all the kings at once in Consenza. Defeating the remains of the cult in Arturo. Cities by cities. And finally, attacking the headquarter of the cult.

That will be our plan. Each time new enemies come from the same location toward the camp we will be attacking, the more likely that the location of their headquarter can be traced.

After taking care of everything else, we will surround their headquarter to not let them have a chance of moving to another location. It’s difficult to trace them because they keep moving. But I hope that this will be the end.

Finally, we are getting closer to destroying the cult. For me, it has been so long including the fight against the cult in my past life. And I never thought we would be able to reach this far in a few years when we couldn’t do anything for decades.

But will it be that easy? I don’t know. After all, who knows how many master level mages they have? Not the artificially made one. But real one. Mages who reached master level through effort.

What if there’s another level beyond master level? What if the cult has someone like that?

No, I can’t start being negative when the battle is right in front of me. What I can do is to fight. Swinging and thrusting Reizpear, using transforming weapon, shooting from afar, and moving with portals. Those are things that I can do.

Well, maybe my air element will be useful. Though I doubt it’s useful against expert level mages or air mages. But doing what I can do is the key to victory.

There won’t be any expert level mages coming with us. The strongest mages are only at advanced level mages. But it should be okay against the enemies’ expert level mages.

We have armies from Consenza, Tatrama, and Varadis. And while we are hunting down the cult, they are practicing their teamwork. It should be okay. We can do this.

And so, I left Consenza to Lenko city. I said to Albert that I will open a portal when we’re close to the enemy camp instead of having Spot carry them all from Lenko.

“Hey, Spot. Are you ready for a big fight?” I greeted the serpent floating in the sky in camouflage.

“I am. Let’s go right away!” Spot said.

Before I jumped on top of Spot’s head, I look around the city I’ve never been to. Lenko city.

It’s just like any other city. But something must have changed after the cult took over this place. And it changes again after Harold taken over this place.

“Not a bad city. The view is great as well. Next time I visit this place, it won’t be for battle.”

I jumped on top of Spot’s head, and we fly through the sky toward the enemy. Soon, the battle will start. Lives will be lost, but such is war.

But the only thing I need to think is to destroy the cult. I must not think of dying. Or letting my friends die.

That’s why I decided to bait the cult with the tournament. It’s to let my friends stay in safer place, not at the battlefield. Though once their match is over, they must be thinking of joining me. That’s why I need to get rid of the enemies fast.

“Spot! Full speed!”
