The Only Aura User In Magic World

There are only three mohawks around me remaining. As for the rest of the mohawks in this battlefield, they are being taken care of by the others.

As for the lava monster, seems like the mohawk who summoned it died. And it started attacking other mohawks as well. Celestine is trying to stop it as long as possible until I can fight it. She actually tried to kill it, but she doesn’t know the lava monster’s weakness and her defense is much stronger, so she’s stalling for time while protecting us. Thanks to her, there were not many of us who died because of the lava monster.

I will kill these three mohawks, and then I will fight the lava monster. After that, I will probably return most of the soldier back to the capital. We are all tired, and having them around will only get in the way of me capturing the children.

The next battle after this one is over, will be harsher with fewer allies and more enemies. But I need to be strong since I’m the only one who can do it.

Maybe if there are any summoner who improve their summoning level, I will make them make a contract with a monster that can make clones of itself. Other than a Black Slime, the only other monster that I know can make a clone is Graham, an archangel. Though he’s a hybrid of an angel and another monster with darkness element. So, I guess it should be some sort of dweller in the dark.

I’ll think about it later. We have enemies to defeat.

.....

Using Victokatana, I can tell when my slash hit the enemy’s Wind Slash, it was stronger. That’s show how strong I have become now.

I killed one mohawk with a slash from distance that broke apart the enemy’s Wind Shield. After that, I approached another mohawk and cut off his neck. There’s only one more mohawk before I can face the lava monster. Though this mohawk girl is a bit tricky. After all, not only she’s an artificial master level wind mage. But she’s an advanced level fire mage as well.

With her wind magic, her fire can be bigger and stronger than expert level fire mages. Though the fire is not as strong as what an artificial master level fire mage can do, it’s still strong. Although Victoriarmor and my Aura can help protect me from the heat, it was still annoying.

She’s also smart as she tried to hide herself behind the fire. Though that was a mistake against me who can use Divine Vision.

Using the chance when she hides behind the fire, I pretend to lose sight of her. She lets down her guard at that moment, and then I slashed her body along with the fire around her. Cutting her body in half.

“Alright, that’s all of them. Let’s leave the rest of the mohawks to the others, and fight the lava monsters. Thanks to using the mohawks as practice partners, I have grown stronger. Let’s see how fast I can kill this thing,” I said.

“Rather than improving, I’d say that you regained back your swordsmanship. Because you used spearmanship and the gun more often, your body started to forget about the sword training I taught you in the past. Well, I guess you are a bit stronger than that time. But don’t get careless. As your body can memorize the movement you practiced over and over again, it can also forget some moves if you lack practice,” Victoria said. She acted like a master to her disciple.

“I understand, master. Let’s take care of the lava monster now,” I said jokingly.

“Good. Now, that’s how my disciple should act to his master,” Victoria played along.

I run toward where Celestine is. Although she’s powerful enough to protect everyone with her magic, she has exhausted a lot of her mana doing it.

“I’ll take care of this monster. You go take a rest!” I said to Celestine.

“I’ll go help the others instead,” Celestine replied.

Actually, that’s better. Well, I asked her to rest because I’m considering her fatigue. But if she said that, I guess she still has some more energy to spend. Though it’s doubtful if she can help me with capturing the artificial master level children later tonight.

Well, if it’s her, she might insist on coming. That means I need to finish this lava monster as fast as possible and helped the others defeat the rest of the mohawks so we can get some rest before the rest of the mohawks arrive.

“Hmm... does this monster have intellect? Let’s try talking to it. Excuse me, can you stop attacking us? In returns, I can return you back to your world.”

I tried negotiating with the lava monster. Although I said that I can take it back to Monsters World, I didn’t say that I will take it back to its home. I don’t know where it’s originally from after all. Though I can just bring it to the volcano where I fought another lava monster in the past.

Instead of getting a reply, the lava monster spit out some lava toward me. I guess that’s actually its reply.

“Were you actually trying to talk to a monster which obviously didn’t even have a brain?” Victoria asked.

“Did you seriously asking me that? Where’s your brain now, huh?” I asked Victoria.

“Let’s forget about me now and focus on what’s in front of you.”

“You’re the one who started talking nonsense!”

“And you’re the one who tried to talk to a lava!”

It’s nice that she’s back here with me again. We can make a joke playfully again. Though I don’t think that it’s a good idea that we made a joke when our own allies are dying.

Well, can’t be helped. We’re both crazy. And if we don’t do this, we might become crazier and we don’t want that.

After dodging the lava spit, I run around the lava monster. This lava monster is different. It has two cores.

The one that I fought in the past only have one core. When I destroyed it, the lava monster died. But this time, it has two. What’s the meaning of this?

Is this actually two lava monsters fused into one? If I split them apart, there will be two lava monsters? What if I destroyed just one core? Will the other core be the main monster? Or the destroyed core can be restored with the help of the surviving core? Does it mean I need to destroy both cores at the same time?

Maybe. There’s no time for us. If I fight the monster for too long, there will be more casualties, and we will have shorter time to rest.

“I guess destroying both cores at the same time will give the obvious result. I can’t waste my time experimenting on the monster,” I said to myself.

“What? This one has two cores?”Victoria who heard me asked.

“Yes. That’s why I will make a wider slash to destroy both cores at the same time,” I said.

But to do that, I need to be in a good position beforehand.

The lava monster’s cores are about five meters apart to each other. My slash will need to be that wide and can reach both cores to destroy them at the same time.

I used my fastest speed while dodging the lava the monster spit out using ostrich’s footwork technique. Doing this, I can get in the right position quite fast.

Good. I’m in the good position where my slash can reach both cores at the same time. And after seeing it for a while, I can tell that the two cores didn’t move at all. They keep staying in the same position as before.

From this location, the one core is right behind the other. Though they might be able to move, so I will use a slash attack instead of a thrust.

“Die you brainless lava!” I shouted as I slashed toward the cores.

“And you’re the idiot! Like I said, it’s a lava! Of course it doesn’t have a brain!” Victoria shouted back.

My slash flew toward the lava monster. When it destroyed the first core, the lava monster stopped and get smaller. The second core was almost moved because the lava monster was about to get smaller, but my slash was faster that there wasn’t even a chance for the second core to move. The lava monster then died. Though the lava is still here.

But that was also very fast transformation. If my slash was a bit slower, I won’t destroy both cores and only destroy one. I guess I am getting stronger thanks to the fight.

“Alright, let’s help the others now.”
