The Only Aura User In Magic World-Chapter 329
Chapter 329: Prince Bernard
βAngel is just a type of monster. They are unrelated to any kind of god.β Victoria is the one who spoke.
βYou know about angels?β I asked. fππ¦ππππ―ππΌΡ΅πl.ππ°πΆ
βJavier told me before, but he said that they are extremely rare and hard to find, so itβs easiest to not look for them.β Victoria said.
βI know where they were though. But it has been a thousand years, so I donβt know if they still in the same location.β Spot said.
βThen, once I leveled up, letβs go check that place first. For now, weβll go find this Bernard.β
Riding on Spotβs back, we arrived at the town where we supposed to be able to find Fabioβs brother at. Heβs supposed to be a general. I guess he should be somewhere where the guards are stationed.
Thereβs no need for me to enter the city normally since I might be gone by after visiting Bernard. But how will Fabio convince him?
.....
First, letβs see if there are any cult members here.
Hmm... from the look of it, the number of cult members in this city is much less than in other cities in Arturo. Not even ten people have explosive devices in their mouth. And among those people, none of them are the guard, or have respectable position. Just travelers or hunters. I guess this place is not a strategic location for the cult members to gather.
Maybe because this Bernard is battle-crazed, he chooses to fight nearby monsters himself or with the guards. Thatβs why the number of hunters is much less than in any other cities.
I guess I can ignore everyone else but Bernard. Now, where is he?
I tried to remember Fabioβs description of him. Heβs a short adult man whose height is barely 140cm. He likes battle, but heβs weak so heβs losing all the time. What a weird person. And heβs supposed to be older than me?
He should realize his own weakness. Well, I donβt mind as long as heβs someone we can trust.
And I easily found this guy. Heβs inside a mansion in this city. Heβs sleeping with a pregnant woman. I guess heβs married in the time after Fabio faked his death. Is his personality the same?
Should I meet his wife as well? I donβt think I should yet. For now, letβs wait until heβs alone to approach him.
I donβt know where to wait, so I just intrude into his mansion and wait until heβs all alone.
After waiting only for a while, he wakes up and left the bedroom. Iβll follow him. Good thing there are not many servants in this mansion. There are many hiding spots for me.
Heβs coming this way. I look around to see that thereβs only the courtyard over here. He might be going there, so I go over to the courtyard and waited for him.
Just as I thought, he entered the courtyard. There are no one else here. The servants are busy inside the mansion, and I donβt think there are any expert level who can sense us here. Should I greet him right away?
βHeh! You think I donβt know that youβre hiding there! Come out and letβs fight!β
Suddenly, shorty Bernard said that. Donβt tell me that he noticed my arrival? Doesnβt that mean heβs an expert level mage? I thought that heβs weak.
Should I come out of hiding?
As I was about to leave my hiding spot, Bernard did something unexpected.
βWhat do you want from me?β
Hmm? Why didnβt he wait until I come out to say anything?
βI know youβre there! Come out!β
...donβt tell me that heβs...
βThereβs no one who can hide from me!β
I looked at him closely, and see that heβs not looking at me. in fact, each time he spoke, he looked at different location. freeπβ―π―π£πΌΞ½ππΉ.πoπ
...I guess heβs just stupid.
βHmm... I need to be more intimidating. Letβs try this one. Show your face or face the consequences! Thatβs not enough.β
Oh, god! This is embarrassing to watch! Iβll just come out now.
βActually, Iβve been here for a while already.β I said as I come out of my hiding spot.
β...β
β...youβre Prince Bernard, right?β
βWait a minute. I need to manage this embarrassment first. You should have come out when I first spoke so I wonβt be this embarrassed.β Prince Bernard said.
β...take your time. While waiting, I have someone who want to meet you. Iβll bring them to you.β I said.
βAh, okay. Wait! Are you an enemy!?β
Suddenly, Prince Bernard prepared to cast a magic at me.
βCome out and letβs fight!β I said, copying the word he said first.
βGyaaah! Thatβs embarrassing! Stop that!β
Letβs ignore him and contact Sonia to tell Fabio that Iβm ready.
Soon, Sonia returns and tell me that Fabio and Queen Carmen is ready to meet Prince Bernard. She also said that Albert is ready anytime.
So, while Prince Bernard is recovering from his embarrassment, I opened two portals to let Fabio, Queen Carmen, and Albert to come.
β...heβs Prince Bernard?β Albert asked.
β...yes. Heβs my brother. What happened?β Fabio asked.
βMany different versions of βI know youβre there!'β
βDonβt remind me again! Oh, who are you people and how did you get here?β Prince Bernard asked.
βDid you forget about me?β
Fabio took off his wig and show his red hair to Prince Bernard.
βBrother Fabio! Youβre still alive! And... Oh! Queen Carmen!β Prince Bernard was shocked to see that his brother is still alive.
βJust call me mother. Your mother is a good friend of mine. Shame that she died early. But itβs good since she doesnβt have to experience the same thing I did.β Queen Carmen said.
βW-what happened? How did someone who is supposed to be dead is still alive!?β
And this is where Fabio explained everything, while Albert decide whether Prince Bernard can be trusted or not. This will keep happening many times again in the future, so I need to get used to this. But it sure is boring when they explaining things, and I have nothing to do. And when Iβm the one doing the explaining, Iβm too lazy.
Letβs just hope that everyone we explained to can be trusted.
βThatβs what make him decide for us to fight for the throne!?β Prince Bernard shouted.
βThat is exactly what the real father himself wanted in case I really died before taking the throne. He has told me that is what heβs going to do just in case.β Fabio said.
βAnyway, you donβt look as battle-crazed as I expected. Do you really love to fight?β I asked Prince Bernard.
βAfter the news that brother Fabio died, I change. I was about to get married back then. And now, Iβm married and my wife is pregnant with my first child. I think I should be more careful with my own life and stop fighting as much as possible.β Prince Bernard said.
βYouβre married!?β Queen Carmen was shocked to hear that.
βWe didnβt announce it because of the situation. The two of us left the capital under the pretense that weβre going to fight for the throne and show my ability to rule this city. But I have no intention to be a king. I just want my child to live peacefully. But it seems thatβs impossible. Iβll help you as much as possible. Anyway, are you going to talk to our other siblings?β Prince Bernard asked.
βIf possible, I would. But I donβt know if I can trust many of them at this moment since they willingly followed the impersonatorβs order. I believe the one who will end up to be the next king will be another impersonator. Or worse, our own siblings have joined with the cult. For now, our goal is to rescue the real father.β Fabio said.
βI see. Then, are you going to leave now?β Prince Bernard asked.
βYes.β Fabio replied, but thatβs not the answer I want to hear. So, I denied that.
ββNo.ββ
Not just me, Albert seem to have something we need to do first. I let Albert speak.
βI think itβs best to introduce ourselves to your wife first since Fabio, Queen Carmen, and probably King Harold himself will stay here. I think itβs best for the three to stay here, but only after King Haroldβs condition is good. Until then, he will be under my... or his friendsβ care.β Albert said as he pointed his index finger at me.
βAs for me, I need to kill the cult members roaming in this city to make sure that this place is safe. We need a safe place from the cult inside this kingdom. Albert, how about sending some of your people here?β I suggested to Albert.
βIβll do that. After you kill them all, return immediately. You also need to introduce yourself to Prince Bernardβs wife.β Albert said.
βUnderstood.β
I leave the mansion to take care of the cult members in this city. So far, I didnβt see anyone suspicious to be expert level mage, or higher ups of the cult who doesnβt need explosive devices in their mouth. But just in case, I keep looking around for two hours before I return to Prince Bernardβs mansion to greet his wife.
After meeting the wife, I took Albert back to Tatrama, and I returned back to Arturo with Fabio. As for Queen Carmen, she said that she will stay here in hiding. And to help Prince Bernardβs wife as well through her pregnancy.
Next is to meet Fabioβs other brother in the castle. I hope this will be easy.
