The Only Aura User In Magic World

“How about the werewolves and the agent with them? Where are they right now?” Fabio asked.

“Their last report was that they were close to the location that Timmy just told us. Let’s get Sonia there to ask them of the cult’s movement. They should have noticed about the cult’s movement. And how they can that close meant that the Evil God is probably nearby. Worse of all, the timing is very bad. I thought they will not make a move for another year or two. But it’s too soon. And Roy is not an Aura Master yet. We need to make a plan,” Albert said tot he other kings.

I need to leave this room. If I stay here any longer, my mind will be filled with the thought of the cult during my fight against Timmy. And I will end up dead if I lose my focus.

“Hey, just tell me when you’re done. I can’t have my mind preoccupied with things before my battle to the death. Also, don’t make any plan that will need my involvement at all. If you’re planning to have a more detailed plan, do it after my fight. And only if I win,” I said before I left the room.

I didn’t just left the room. I also run toward the lake where we used to have picnic at. It’s a quiet place where I can think in a relaxed manner at the moment.

Since all my senses have improved a lot, if I stay in the city, I won’t be able to concentrate. That’s why I ran all the way here.

.....

I thought that I can delay my match as long as possible to make Timmy’s guard down. I would suddenly appear in the testing ground via portal to the Blobby I installed there, and start the fight when Timmy was most unprepared.

I have used my improved Divine Vision and checked that Timmy would sometime stay in the testing ground instead of in his room after all the other ancient Aura users were defeated. I thought that it was a good plan.

Unfortunately, that plan won’t work anymore. Timmy has set the schedule for the fight thanks to the cult’s movement. That’s another reason for me to hate the cult.

Now, there’s only direct battle. I can’t use that trick anymore.

“Were you thinking that it’s a shame that you can no longer delay the battle anymore?”

All of a sudden, someone spoke to me from under the ground. That was Timmy’s voice. He suddenly appears from under the ground and talked to me.

“Why are you here?” I asked casually. I already knew that he would come after I see the movement of the ground.

“It’s not like I have anything to do in that place. So, what will you do for our fight?” Timmy asked.

“You think I will leak my plan to you? Unfortunately for you, I’m not that stupid. Also, do we need to fight in that place?” I asked Timmy.

“Why ask?”

“Too many disadvantages for me. That place is underground and you’re an earth mage beyond master level.You can use the soil from below, above, left, and right for you to attack or defend. Can we change place?” I suggested.

“Hmm... now that I think about it, you move around a lot when you fight. I guess no matter how big I make that place it’s still too narrow for you. Alright. We can fight here tomorrow,” Timmy said.

“That’s great. As a reward, I will inform you that the previous king of Arturo, Harold, is hiding the strongest alcoholic drink somewhere in his castle. He has many of those. You can steal one bottle and he won’t notice,” I said.

After knowing that Timmy can go anywhere in this continent, Fabio told me that his father has never took a step into the secret cellar in the castle anymore. Must be because he wants to keep it as secret from someone who can move anywhere in this continent.

I was not even allowed to put a Blobby there. Even the Blobbies I had on him, and the Sonia’s soil to contact Sonia, were taken off of him before he enter that cellar. That’s how much he loves his drink there. Though it’s impossible to keep that secret from me.

And I shamelessly told Timmy about that place. I told him that he can steal from there without being noticed by Harold.

“...Were you thinking that you might be able to win against me if I was intoxicated? Unfortunately for you, it’s not easy to make me that drunk. I will go there right now though. See you tomorrow then. In this place,” Timmy said before he disappeared.

I guess that won’t work. The only thing that will work is Harold becoming pissed knowing that someone stole his precious treasure.

So, taking him by surprise and getting him too intoxicated to fight won’t work. But at least I managed to persuade him to not fight underground.

But that’s not just me who will have the advantage. He will too.

His powerful earth magic won’t be restricted since he doesn’t need to care about the people on the surface of the testing ground.

Fighting in the surface instead of underground... I guess I don’t need to install cameras for the fight since I will move around a lot. Though maybe they can watch my fight from the sky while riding on the back of Spot. Only if they dare to.

Watching this fight will risk their life as well. I will tell them that they are allowed to fight, but they must keep their shield activated at all time. Though it may be useless, it’s better than nothing. I will still tell them that it’s better if they don’t come. But the decision will be theirs since it’s no longer underground.

Soon after, Sonia appears to tell me that the discussion is over. There will be another discussion later after I finish my battle. And I will return to think about the cult again after my victory against Timmy. Though that is the biggest hurdle I have to pass.

“Roy, after taking us back, I need you to send some troops over to where the spy and the werewolves are. They are already prepared to move. Just the troops from Tatrama and Arturo,” Albert said.

“Alright. I also have something to say. The battle tomorrow won’t be underground. It will start near the lake. You are all welcome to watch, but remember that you will risk your life as well even if Angela is protecting you all with her barrier. Just be careful if you want to watch,” I said.

“It will start near the lake? Not will be near the lake? Knowing you, I guess you will move around a lot from there. Try to move away from the city,” Kayla said. She is heavily involved in making strategies together with the kings. I can say that other than me, the kings trust her the most. Or maybe they trust her more than me. And the third person they trust the most is Angela since she’s the strongest mage.

...Maybe I am the third. Or less.

“I will. There’s no way I would move to a city and get my movement restricted because of the people there. And I don’t know how will Timmy attack in a crowded place. That will be dangerous for me instead,” I said.

As someone who have gone to the lake and the surrounding area many times, I’m more familiar with that place than Timmy. Though that is useless since he can sense everything that is touching the ground.

Fighting Timmy is the greatest trial I need to face before destroying the cult. I have grown stronger, but I need to be even stronger. This is hard.

After I brought the troops to where the agent and the werewolves who were tracking the cult were waiting, I returned home and lie down on Victobed. I need to sleep.

Tomorrow is a big day. If I win, I live and get stronger. If I lose, I will die. And many people will lose since I am the key member of the fight against the cult. If I’m not there, everyone will be in danger since the strategy that they can use is very limited without me.

I need to set my mind to killing Timmy. Even if I lose a limb, I need to kill him no matter what.

...Seriously, did I just try to sleep while giving so much killing intent? Let’s forget the battle as well tonight and focus on sleeping. Once I woke up, my mind will be cleared and I can start thinking of killing Timmy again. Let’s just sleep.
