The Only Aura User In Magic World-Chapter 873 - Reunion with Jewel’s Saviors
873 Reunion with Jewel’s Saviors
A few days after I left the city and destroyed an entire clan except their leader, I got a some info from Albert about the result of me causing trouble there.
“One of the agents nearby met up with the guild master. I asked him to tell the guild master that your existence is not something that he could spread. Though it’s a good idea that you told the guild master of that city that you were abstain from hunting for so long because you were increasing your level. The guild master is smart enough to stop giving a recommendation for you to rank up as well. This way, you can keep being looked down upon or someone will try to exploit you. You can do whatever you want in case such thing happened.”
That’s what Albert told me. Basically, using his authority, he made it so that I can not raise up my rank. Not even returning back to my old rank before I got demoted.
“That’s an abuse of authority,” I said.
“You don’t care. You have a lot of money. And all the missions from the guild are way too easy for you to handle. Don’t worry, I told other kings to do the same to the Hunter Guilds in their country. Though they will only tell the guild master after your appearance in the city. Even though we never really mind much about hunters, we have made sure that all guild masters are not involved at all with the cult. You can be assured about it,” Albert said.
Which mean that if I can’t find any agents in any city, I can contact the guild master about something related to the cult. Or the noble in the city. Though meeting a guild master is easier than meeting a noble.
Though for me, either one is fine. I will meet anyone when I want to. Either by meeting them from the front gate, or just enter their office without permission.
“In any case, whatever trouble you cause, we will make sure to take care of the aftermath. If they are just thugs like the one you destroyed yesterday, then we will make sure that you will not gain too much reputation. But if we found out that they are involved with the cult, then we won’t do anything. Though if the agents nearby can handle them, there won’t be any problem for you. But if not, then you will be known by the cult soon. But we will inform you if it happens.”
That’s the end of the conversation. I guess we don’t have any clues at all about the cult. That’s why they let me roam free and do whatever I want in hope that the cult will react to whatever I’m doing. And then the alliance will react after seeing the cult’s reaction.
.....
We are not some kind of forces that prevent anything from happening. We are a force that can only react after something happened.
Though if we had the information beforehand, then we can somehow do something to prevent anything big from happening. But that’s still reacting to a new information. That’s why it’s a reaction instead of prevention.
After that, it’s time to move again. This time, I won’t be riding on Ray. I brought him to Monsters World because I’m going to walk there with my disciple who is currently free, Jewel. Or should I say riding her?
“We’re going to pass through the border normally, right?! It’s my first time to do that!” Jewel said. With her naturally loud voice.
Right, I forgot. All this time I brought not just her, but everyone else out of Tatrama, it’s by using portals. Though there’s nothing interesting about crossing the border. There’s no one watching. We can go to and from another country without a care.
Though on all the nearest cities near the border, they’re all heavily guarded. Including this city we’re currently at.
But it’s just a normal guard for us. Even Jewel alone can handle them all.
But for now, we will move normally.
“Let’s go now. With your speed, we can reach the border before noon and reach Bernard’s place later. Though maybe we will stop at every city. What will you do?” I asked Jewel.
“I have nothing better to do, so I will stay with you for a while! Maybe even until we reach your destination. That tallest peak in the continent!” Jewel said.
She’s a beastform mage and also a lightning mage. For her beastform, she doesn’t even know anything else she can do to improve. As for her lightning element, she’s already an expert level mage.
To reach master level in her lightning element, she will need to cultivate for a long time. I guess she got bored of it. That’s why she’s here with me.
And we hope that on the way to the peak of the continent, we can find a lightning spirit that will help her to increase her magic level. That is also the goal of this journey after all.
We left the inn when no one looking because it will be surprising that I entered alone, but left with someone else.
Then as we walked to the gate, someone greeted us.
“Oh, it’s really Jewel and Roy! You two, it’s been a while!”
Who is it? There’s a group of five people, all women, who seems to know me. While four of them are quite young, the last one is old. I seem to have met them somewhere before.
“Roy, I bet you forget about them. They are that party who got caved in in the first dungeon we entered near Cassau. We rescued them at that time. I think it was soon after you first met with Albert,” Victoria said.
Now that Victoria mentioned it, I think I kind of remember them. But I thought they had a huge fight after I rescued them, so they broke up.
Then during a mission at a certain village, two of them got infected by a clone of Black Slime in the past and make them to never feel hungry, pain, and tired. Though they were unable to leave the village because of some type of flowers which made monsters unable to get close to them.
“Oh, it’s Gladius! It’s been a long time since we last met!” Jewel shouted.
“Your voice is still loud, Jewel. Though it’s not as loud as when we first met,” one of them said.
Now that I think about it, the first time I met Jewel, she was escaping from bandits. Then she asked for my help. Which I refused.
But I told her to do other things and ended up meeting this group and her village is saved. But she insisted to be my disciple since then.
What about her family? I think she told me once that they are fine in the village. And Jewel herself asked Albert to send some retired agents to stay in the village. So they should be safe. And Jewel herself would sometime return to the village. It’s close to Cassau, so she never asked for me to use portal to get her there.
I’m not that close to these girls. But since they saved Jewel’s village, Jewel talked a lot with them.
“So, where are you going? Are you going to Arturo? What about the village?”
I think her name is Jessica. She asked Jewel about our destination.
“It’s fine. Everyone in the village is fine. For now, we’re going to Arturo to meet our friend over there. And I just want to explore more areas,” Jewel said.
She didn’t say anything about spirits or going to the peak of the continent. Just saying that we’re going to visit a friend’s place. Which is not a lie since we’re going to Bernard’s place.
“By the way, I heard that you broke up in the past. After that dungeon caving in incident. Why are you together again?” Jewel asked.
“Well, we thought that live is too short for a stupid fight. So we’re together again,” Jessica said.
Too short? Are they still advanced level mages? Well, two of them are expert level mages. The oldest one, and one other girl whose name might be Ellen if I’m not wrong.
Well, they are just below average expert level mages. Right now, Jewel alone is much stronger than all of them combined.
Well, not that I care. Though it’s good to see someone I knew in the past to be well now. Though I forgot about them.
“Since we’re also going to Arturo, how about we move together? If you’re fine with it,” Jessica asked.
Hearing the offer, Jewel looked at me for confirmation. I just gestured that she can do whatever she wants. It’s not like we’re in a hurry anyway.
“Then let’s go together! We will grab our stuffs before we go. Please wait for us,” Jewel said.
Grab our stuffs? Oh, right. They don’t know that I can use portal. So it’s best to act like a normal traveler carrying some survival tools since it will take a few days to reach Arturo.
“Then I’ll go get a bigger horse carriage while waiting,” one of them said.
“No need. The both of us don’t need a horse,” Jewel said.
I think Jewel never mentioned it to them that she’s a beastform mage. I guess she will be my ride to Arturo.
