The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 565: My Grandmaster is Weak

It’s exactly as I heard from Sonia and Victoria. The two monsters who taught me everything about Aura this far think that Aura users who can slash through magic are considered legend. And from what Clarence just said, it seems to be true. He said that he couldn’t do it. Though some Aura users here seem to be able to do that.

But if he couldn’t do it, how did he cut down that tree? He must have some more secret that he didn’t share with his two disciples. Maybe some secret technique.

“Roy, be careful! Master used to say that magic can’t be compared to Aura. And he used magic right away. Seems like he learned a lot from the ancient Aura users,” Victoria said.

“Yeah. He said that I’m better than him back when he was still alive. And since he’s here, there must be some method he used to cut down the tree,” I replied.

“You’re right.”

Seems like Clarence heard our conversation. He suddenly spoke mid-battle.

“Just like the kings you brought here, I also inherited an ability from my grandfather. It’s something related to blood. And with that ability, I can tell f someone has the aptitude to manifest their Aura or not in the future. That’s why I became a teacher,” Clarence said.

.....

“Wait, that means there’s no one other than you here who can teach someone to be Aura users?”

“Apparently, yeah. Victoria and Sonia are two of those who got the privilege to learn under me. As for the others here, it seems that they only learned more about Aura after they manifested it, and meet another Aura users who became their master. Only me, and some of my siblings built dojos in various locations. We were all those who either inherit this Aura ability, or gained it. Though I forgot what monsters needed to be killed to learn this ability since I inherit it,” Clarence said. New chapters are published on Noᴠelꜰire

He also explained that using this ability, he increased his power so he can cut the tree down in one hit. Probably the monster that needed to be defeated is vampire or something that can control blood.

“So, does it mean that you can’t do it anymore since you don’t have blood in your body anymore right now?” I asked.

“You want to build an army of Aura users to fight the cult you’re talking about? Unfortunately, I can’t do that anymore. And the others here are not teacher materials as well. They would say watch and learn instead. So, the only thing we can do is to help you guys stronger,” Clarence said.

I took a glance to the ancient Aure users here and they all nodded in agreement. I guess I should give up in building an army of Aura users then.

Well, maybe I can learn something from that locked door once I finished the test. Though I won’t raise my hope up.

“Where are you looking!? The fight is far from over!” Clarence shouted as he charged at me.

I know that. We’re still in the middle of a fight while we were chatting. But that doesn’t mean I didn’t pay attention. I have Divine Vision after all.

“That idiot. Hey! Don’t forget! That boy has Divine Vision!” Mona shouted from the side.

Clarence finally remember that and took some distance from me as he tried to cast another magic. But he’s too late.

Before he could gain some distance, I already prepared Reizpear for a thrust. And this is a long distance thrust that he shouldn’t have learned as well.

And so, I killed my grand master. Is what supposed to happen if he’s not a zombie.

My thrust destroyed the left side of his torso along with his left arm. If he has a heart, he would have died already. But he’s just a flesh without any blood, heart, or even brain. Though he’s more like a slime transformed into human just like Victoria.

He’s a zombie who has been revived for the test. Though I still don’t know what the test will be, I will at least try to take it after I fought all the ancient Aura users here.

“...So, how do we decide the winner?” I asked.

“Right. We haven’t decided that yet. I guess making us like this can be considered as your win since our regeneration seem to be slow. As for our victory, I guess it should be when you are badly injured, lose consciousness, or you give up. How about that?”

Clarence, whose half of his body is being regenerated slowly, suggested that condition to me. The other ancient Aura users seem to agree as well.

“I’m fine with that. Though there may be some individual differences, we can settle it before the fight. So, this is my victory, right?” I asked.

“Don’t get too cocky just with one victory, boy. He’s the youngest here, and also the weakest. And I can’t wait to fight you,” the Aura user who died single said. That’s too long of a nickname, so I will change it. Since he’s the only one with bald head and full beard, I will call him Bearded Baldy.

Not just him. The other ancient Aura users seem to be eager to fight as well. And on our side, everyone is also interested in fighting.

“Now that the opening match is over, let’s get to training. I would like to challenge all the ancient Aura users one by one later! As for you guys, go pick someone you want to fight!” I said to everyone I brought here.

Since Kayla has arranged the schedule, even if everyone is fighting in this place, it should fit. And she also didn’t just watch me fight. She created Earth Walls in this place to make rooms for each of us to fight. Some rooms are bigger than the others. I guess that’s for a team battle.

“Alright! Big guy! Fight me!” Shelia challenged the Bearded Baldy. I guess that’s to be expected. Among the zombies here, he’s the toughest looking one. Though I don’t know if he’s the strongest or not.

“A puppy girl? Good! You have regeneration skill, right? I won’t hold back then!” Bearded Baldy said.

The two then went into a room together.

...As someone who has slept with Shelia, I feel conflicted saying that. This is weird.

“The lady with Divine Vision! Fight me!” Angela also picked her opponent. But I stopped her.

“No, Angela. I want to fight her first. I’d like to improve my Divine Vision. Maybe she can help me with that,” I said.

“That’s a good decision. I don’t know if there’s something I can teach you, but I’m also interested in how good you are, Roy. Let’s get a room together,” Mona said.

“...That sounds pretty suggestive. Please don’t say it like that. I brought my girlfriends here, so it’s pretty awkward,” I said.

Then, Kayla approached us.

“Don’t worry. We don’t mind that at all. Even if you’re a ghost, I’m fine if he added you as his harem member,” Kayla said.

...With just one sentence, she made all the male zombies here hostile toward me.

“You! Fight me after this!”

“No! Me first!”

“Enemy of all men!”

...Seems like Bearded Baldy is not the only one who died single and without any descendant. I just hope that they don’t hate me enough to kill me.

“Boy! I will kill you!”

And the Bearded Baldy who just left Shelia, returned and announced that he will kill me. I’m pretty much dead then.

As for the female zombies, they are interested instead. Probably they want to see the exact reason why there are many girls who like me.

“So... let’s move?” I asked Mona to leave this place already.

Kayla and the others are very diligent. While I was fighting, they took care of everything here. From building walls to make rooms, and moving the tools here that was supposed to be used for the test to a single room. All the rooms are very tidy.

“Can you see the smallest room in this place?” Mona asked me on the way.

“Is it the third room on the right?” I pointed at the smallest room.

“That is small, but not the smallest. Seems like you are similar to the past me. You can’t see too deep in a dungeon, right?”

She’s right. Well, since she has similar ability, she should have experienced it in the past as well.

“I can say that I’m stronger than Clarence, but it’s all thanks to my Divine Vision. I can see and predict the opponent’s next move by seeing their muscles movement. You’re also similar right?” Mona asked.

“Right. You’re going to teach me how I can see better?”

“That’s right. Since you also defeated the All-seeing eye, I can say that our ability are practically the same. You can see objects from distance and see-through any objects, right? That’s not all this power have. If you gained more experience, you can also see your opponents’ weaknesses. And now that I’m a zombie, it should be difficult for you to see my weakness in a fight since there’s a limit of what you see in my body. Anyway, let’s learn by doing it,” Mona said.

She’s right. Although I can see Clarence’s position with Divine Vision, I didn’t know what move he will do since his body although looks like human from the outside, the inside is like Victoria. Difficult to predict since they both don’t have muscles.

But for Mona who has been here for a long time, and see the Aura users coming after her and the zombies from this place, she should have learned how to predict someone’s movement. Even better than me at least.

I need to learn it from her. Although my enemies are mages and not Aura users, this ability will be useful.

What if I fight another dragon who has been tamed and modified by the cult? If I improved my ability to predict my opponent’s move, I should have easier time.

And our training here finally started. I hope the others also get stronger from their experience fighting these zombies who can’t die.
