The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 663: Watching the Fight with the King

Now, what to do? Should I evacuate the citizens?

Hmm... I don’t think that’s a good idea right now. We don’t know yet if there are other helper of the lord from among the citizens. And I don’t think anyone would stupidly turn the citizens into hostages.

Well, even if they do, I can move quickly and save them. I guess that’s why Burnes didn’t want me to join their fight. It’s because my strength and speed let me handle other stuffs quickly. From protecting the civilians, to kill some lowly mobs.

And so, I will badly tell you the story of what happen now.

After I destroyed the wall, the noise and the vibration alerted many people. And I think the lord himself noticed it because he’s an earth mage. Wait, he’s sleeping? I guess he doesn’t care.

Some guards who are loyal to the lord reacted quickly. But none of them are strong. As for the slaves, they don’t care. Rather, I think they hoped that we can save them.

And all of a sudden, a pretty ghost who had a harem back when she was alive appears in front of me. Wait, that’s Sonia.

“What is it, Sonia?” I asked.

“Albert said that he wants to come and watch. After I delivered a message from Burnes to him, knowing that you won’t participate and just watch, he wanted to come and see the unfolding event by himself. It will be safe since you’re with him. That’s what he said,” Sonia said.

“So he wants to spectate this event? Well, I can do that. Good thing Spot is here as well. I can ask him to stay with Albert now,” I said.

“What about us?”

And after the ghost, come the spirits. The two spirits, Airy and Breezy, are here with me. Airy has always been stuck with me. but she’s always invisible. As for Breezy, he came to watch the circus. But I forgot to return him to Kron. So, he’s still with me.

Breezy asked me what he should do in this situation. Well, there’s nothing we can do now but watch.

“Just watch for now. Is there anything you want to do?” I asked the two spirits back instead.

“I have a question. Is this the war you’re talking about?” Airy asked me.

“Hmm... not really. And I can’t really say that it’s unrelated. It’s difficult to say,” I said.

“You said it as if it’s a common occurrence. Have humans always been like this?” Airy asked.

“Probably. Humans are probably the only species in the world who loves to fight among themselves. And humans are also the only species who hates fighting the most. Let’s just say that humans are the weirdest creature,” I said.

Though it’s probably not just this world. Humans in all kind of worlds both hate each other and love each other. Which makes human weird.

After answering Airy’s question, I opened a portal and get Albert to come here. And we ride on Spot’s back so we won’t get noticed thanks to his camouflage skill. Though if we are too close to expert level mages, we will still be noticed.

“Sigh... there are other problems apart from the cult it seems. I should have taken care of my people more seriously. A slavery in my kingdom? Unforgivable,” Albert said.

“Yeah. Since you’re the king, you should take all the blame. Let’s continue watching. There are already some people fighting,” I said.

Then I acted as a commentator of the unfolding event. Though even with all this noise, the Corrupt Lord is still sleeping. What the hell? I need that bed. That seems to be the most comfortable bed in the world. Or at least I need Victoria to copy that bed.

Wendy takes the lead at the front. Maybe because she’s the strongest. She’s the only one here who has been staying with me the most and learn as much as possible to get stronger after all. So she’s leading at the front.

And at the back, it was Burnes. He’s in charge of giving order. And he also ordered the other former slaves to help. Except those he doesn’t know if they’re enemies or not. Those people still have the slave collars on and were told to stay in the prison until everything is over.

Hmm?

“What’s wrong, Roy?” Albert asked me who is confused at something that I see.

“Wendy and the others... they are purposely ignore some people that I thought should be enemies. They are also slaves but they have stronger magic. They must be forced to be the guards. Or at least that’s what I thought. Maybe the other slaves told Wendy and the others about those who they shouldn’t fight at all and just ignore,” I said.

“It’s difficult to tell since I can only hear your commentaries. Can we get closer?” Albert asked.

“Spot, let’s get closer. But just far enough to not let any expert level mages to notice us,” I said to Spot.

“Okay. Is this enough?” Spot moves so quickly that I had to hold Albert so he didn’t get blown away.

“Yup. It’s enough. Well, there are only fighting now. Oh, there are some children hiding. I’ll take them away from there. Albert, stay with Spot,” I said as I jumped down from Spot’s back.

“We’re coming too!” Breezy said.

Breezy and Airy won’t let me go alone as they stuck with me the whole time. I also don’t want them to leave. It will be bad if they got caught.

Someone used earth magic that shook the ground and the children who are running away fell to the ground. Before they got hurt anymore, I quickly grabbed them and run into somewhere safe close to the gate of the city. I don’t think they will fight all the way to the outside of the city. The target is in the middle of the city after all.

“Hey, kids. Stay here. I’ll bring the others here,” I said to the kids.

“Is it safe here, uncle?” one of the kid asked.

Me? Uncle? Well, if I include my past life, I’m already an uncle. But I don’t look that old now, right?

“It will be safe when everything is over. Just stay here. But if you hear screaming or shouting, run away from the source of the sound and hide somewhere safe. Take care,” I said before leaving the children.

This time, I’m not wearing my living armor disguise. I’m acting as a normal passerby who helped those in need.

Let’s see... the lord is awake now. And he’s looking around. Maybe he’s sensing the surrounding with his earth magic. If that’s the case, I think he might be a powerful mage. I wonder if the others can handle him.

Even if we have the advantage of knowledge from the past and the future, that doesn’t mean strong people other than us don’t exist. Maybe the Corrupt Lord is a genius. Or he might be lucky to find something that can help him get stronger.

And the Corrupt Lord just ignores everything as if he has no interest in what happening in his city. What the hell?

After evacuating some of the civilians near the battle and I see that there are no one else who needs help, I return back to Spot and told Albert about what the lord is doing.

“Really? Is there anything I need to worry about?” Albert asked.

“You installed a huge screen on the square of this city as well right? Back before the tournament between four countries?” I asked Albert back.

“Yes. At least city with a lot of population had screens installed. And it was around that time as well that I sent some agents. But there has been no reports coming from them. just like the agents I sent before them,” Albert said.

“For him to be so calm is troubling. That means he’s at least stronger than most people here. Maybe even Wendy will have some difficulties fighting him,” I said.

If he watched the tournament, and he sees his city in this situation but he’s still calm, there is a possibility that he thinks that he’s stronger than Angela back when she won the tournament. Though I don’t think he’s at master level yet.

“Oh? There’s someone quite strong there. An expert level mage. Maybe he’s the one that Burnes told me about. The influential person who helped this city protected from bandits and monsters. This city’s hero. Enslaved hero I mean,” I said.

The man is facing Wendy. I don’t think he can defeat Wendy so I don’t need to help him. But he’s quite strong with his ice magic. Though in the end, he got defeated.

And only then I can see the lord’s expression changed.

“Oh, the Corrupt Lord is making his move now,” I said.

“His name is Randy. Not Corrupt Lord,” Albert said.

“You don’t think that he’s corrupt?” I asked.

“He must have a reason. But whatever his reason is, he needs to get punishment. We have made it so slavery is illegal in my kingdom. But he’s still doing it. That’s why we need him alive,” Albert said.

Whoa, difficult matters. I’ll just do whatever I want later when Albert is interrogating him. Let’s watch how capable he is.
