The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 96: The Ghost Meets The Kids

“We’re here!”

After a few days of travelling, Kayla, Angela, Sophie, and I returned to Melk.

Since the loot from my last treasure hunting is a lot, and should be enough for a month until I hunt more treasure, I returned to Melk.

I’m going to tell Daniel and the others that our new home is being prepared. Lina is currently looking for someone to install a bathroom in our new house.

We already have a bathroom, but we want to have a bigger bathroom.

When I agree to have a bigger bathroom, I also said it’s much better because I can join the girls. Then Angela punched me in the gut.

That was how we ended up building another bathroom in my room since it’s the biggest room in the building.

.....

As for the drainage system, Victoria is currently teaching Lina about the drainage system from her old world. She said she can’t teach everything, but it should be more than enough in this world.

She never used that knowledge back when she was still alive because she always wanders around and almost never stayed in one place for too long.

Victoria also taught Lina about water system. So, we can get water in our own room by turning the tap she’s planning to make.

When I heard about it, I just told her that I will leave her in Cassau until I really need her by my side and summon her. Our home is important after all.

As we were about to reach Melk, Sonia appears and see the surrounding.

“So that’s where you’re from.”

“Yeah. Since you’re here, I’ll introduce you later to Daniel and the others. But when we’re inside the city, before we reach Red Tail, I want you to return to Cassau first and wait until we call you over.”

“Okay.”

Then Sonia disappear again.

This mean that there seems to be no set distance to how far her connection can go to.

I’m leaving Sonia in Cassau to watch over Victoria. If she’s left alone, there’s a high chance that Victoria will look for another prison in Cassau.

But if she’s with Sonia, they will end up arguing most of the time.

A slime and a ghost is arguing, and a maid is watching them... Lina can’t do anything if they end up fighting so she can only watch. The only one who can stop the two of them is me.

Although I said they are fighting, they looked like a sibling’s quarrel. Even if we didn’t do anything, they won’t go too far. And even if they do go too far, I think it’s fine as well since both ghost and black slime can’t take any damage.

Sonia is a ghost, and Aura is needed to exorcise her. Both Sonia and Victoria can’t use Aura anymore. As for Victoria, she’s a shapeshifting black slime that I often use as weapon. I don’t think I ever seen her taking damage.

Normal slime can be killed just by a swing of a club, but black slime doesn’t take any damage. I think she’s immortal.

We entered the gate and walk to Red Tail. As we entered through the door, we see Daniel and Hannah is playing with Hannah’s mother, Penny, and Ruby.

“We’re home!”

Said Sophie as we entered the building.

Angela and Kayla also followed us inside instead of going to their own apartment. They have nothing to do over there.

“Sophie! You’re home!”

Daniel run over to Sophie and give her a big hug.

“Daniel! What about me? Hey, Daniel? Me? This Roy here?”

“Since you took him here, he’s much closer with Sophie than you. You should have played with him more.”

“...can’t say anything about that.”

I looked down as what Ruby said is right.

“Don’t worry! I like you!”

“Hannah! You’re an angel!”

“I want to see Clarence every day!”

“...what about me? What about Roy? Not Clarence the clown but Roy?”

“...I missed Roy a bit, I guess?”

Scary! Children’s honesty are scary!

“So? Have you find a house for us?” Ruby asked.

“Yes we have. Complete with a maid and a watchghost.”

“Wait, what?! A maid I can understand, but a watchghost?”

“Just like a watchdog. But instead of a dog, it’s a ghost.”

Well, it’s normal for anyone to be shocked when I told them I have a ghost to watch the house.

“Don’t worry, she’s a tame ghost. Or like, I made her submit to me.”

“Is the ghost lady beautiful?” Hannah asked.

“Well... she’s beautiful, but she’s pretty much see through. I can call her here now.”

I called Sonia by tapping the buckle on my belt. I bought this just the morning after the girls isolate me for being unable to gain weight.

I told them I did gained weight, but they were all turned into muscles. The girls still hate me even after I said that.

That’s when I decide to never talk to the girls about weight ever again. Never even toward girls I don’t know!

In the end, I just buy myself a belt and not talking about it. As for the others, they decided to have bracelets or necklace.

That night, since I was left alone, I spend my time making a strong container for making air element magic stones. I made about three of them and put ten stones inside each one of the containers. I hope there will be some result after I return there in two or three weeks.

Yeah, I’m planning to go there again. Obviously, to bring Daniel and the others to our new house. Then I also need to keep my promise to Albert and return. Hopefully it would be before the babies are born.

After tapping the buckle, Sonia appears.

“Sister Ghost appears! She’s so pretty!” Hannah was so excited seeing Sonia’s appearance.

“Thank you, little girl. You’re also pretty cute yourself.”

Hannah’s mother, Penny, looked toward me and Sonia alternatively. When I nodded to tell her that Sonia is not hostile, Penny let out a relieved sigh.

I introduced Sonia to the others.

“So, she is the ghost who’s haunting our new home in Cassau. Her name is Sonia and she’s an old friend of Victoria back when both of them were still alive.”

“So sister ghost is friend of sister slime! Then will you be my friend too?”

“Me too! Me too!”

Hannah and Daniel loves it when they both getting new friends. Even if they are slimes or ghosts.

Hannah calling Victoria sister slime, and Sonia is sister ghost. I think Daniel will do the same too.

“Sister Ghost! Will I be a ghost after I die, or will I be a slime?”

Oh, shit! That was a difficult question! There’s no real answer to that question!

Sonia looked at me asking for my help, but the one Hannah is asking is Sonia, so I just stare dagger at Sonia.

Tell a lie! Tell a lie! Tell a lie!

Don’t make them believe easily in reincarnation!

Does she understand my intention?

Sonia started answering Hannah’s question.

“Little girl, you shouldn’t want to become either a ghost or a slime. I became this way because I did bad things before I died. Then I died not in peace so my soul is wandering around as a ghost.”

Good! That might not be a correct answer, but that’s good enough for children to hear!

Sonia is surprisingly good with kids, huh?

Wait! She had a lot of lovers, but I never heard she’s talking about her children. Does that mean she’s unable to had children in the past? And she ended up being kind toward children because of that? I’ll ask her later.

“What bad thing did sister ghost do?” This time, Daniel asked Sonia.

“For example, like not listening to your mom or brother.”

That’s... if it’s anyone else that might be a good answer, but for Daniel who was abandoned by his mother...

“Does that mean I did bad thing? Mommy told me to wait for her, but she never returned after several days and I left with Roy...”

Sonia looked at me again. Her expression is as if she’s about to cry. I have told her before we return about Daniel’s situation. So she knows that he was abandoned by his mother.

.....

Before I told her anything, Ruby come close to me and whispered something.

“We have found Daniel’s mother. That day, she actually trying to sell Daniel to slave trader. After a few days, she found the trader, but at that time, you already took Daniel home with you. So the slave trader choose to have Daniel’s mother to sell as a slave instead. She then run away. A few days ago, we found her corpse in the forest. Seems like she committed suicide because she can’t run away anymore.”

That was... lucky. If I was late just one day and didn’t met Daniel by chance, he would have been a slave. He’s so lucky to escape from being a slave. But I won’t tell him about it. At least not anytime soon. He’s still a child.

I told Sonia how to respond to Daniel’s question.

“Some time, it was the mother who did bad things. So, it’s fine if you didn’t listen to your mother if she did bad things. But did you listen to Roy and the sisters here?”

“I did! They said that I’m a good boy and praise me!” Daniel replied happily.

“That means you’re a good boy. Please continue being good to everyone.”

Sonia then approached Daniel and tried to hug him. But she can’t. Her body just went through Daniel’s. I can see that Sonia is about to cry again. I’ll help her this time.

“Daniel. Sonia can’t stay here for long. She need to go home to Cassau because she has some business to attend to. Say goodbye to her.”

“Bye-bye sister ghost!” Daniel, followed by Hannah, waved their hands to Sonia.

“...Bye-bye! Once you move to Cassau, we can meet again every day!”

“Really?! Then let’s play together in the future!”

Sonia then disappear. She must be crying back in Cassau.

I think I need to be a bit kinder toward her. She’s not as evil as I thought. There must be some reason why she’s good toward children.

After Sonia returned to Cassau, we spend the rest of the day together.

Tomorrow, I will return to school and see if I can find a clue about mage hero from the past.
