The Only Aura User In Magic World

Since the first wave is over, I summoned Victoria. And Victoria's time is also almost over soon so I will just use her as weapon or tools.

I waited until the people who guards the person in the cage left. Since they thought that the collar is enough to stop her, they won't bother doing some useless task.

And soon, they were gone.

I looked around to see if we're safe from other people and sneaked and approached the cage.

"Hello! Nice to meet you! May I ask your name?"

"Who are you? What do you want?"

"I'm someone in need of help, and I want to ask for your helping hand if I can trust you. So, may I ask your name?" I ask her name again.

"…you can call me Candy."

So it's a fake name. Or maybe that's her real name?

"Sweet candy or sour candy?" I asked.

"Does that even matter?"

"Although I love sweet candy, at the moment I'm craving for sour candy at the moment."

"…I see that you're an idiot."

"Now you know that I'm an idiot. It's good that we know each other better now. Then let's share information."

"What do you want?"

"I want to know who these fake bandits are and how did you ended up getting caught. Why are they bringing a cage?"

Candy told me everything from when she's about to help someone breakthrough, they got killed, and she alone still survive.

Candy heard a rumor about some groups targeting mages in the middle of breaking through. So when she finds out that there's a party with someone who wanted to breakthrough, she volunteer to follow them to get some information.

Unfortunately, the party is way too weak.

Candy was just interested in the group that will attack the party so when the group arrived, she planned to escape on her own. That's when things went wrong.

"The party I'm with was so stupid. They know I'm stronger than them so they begged me to protect them and hugged my leg. It was too late when the attackers came. I should have killed the party on my own without hesitation so I won't get caught. What a blunder!"

Candy explained how she got caught.

But I'm not convinced. If she want to check the attackers, she could have just follow the party from afar instead of by their side.

"That's not everything, right? If you want to know the attackers, you could have followed them from afar. There's something else you didn't tell. And that's why these groups decided to let you live."

"…"

"What's the reason you were so curious about these group of fake bandits? Well, there are some real bandits, but most of them here are fakers."

Everyone in these fake bandit group has explosive devices inside their mouth. Which means this group is sent by the cult.

My guess that they don't want anyone strong in this city before the stampede is probably a correct one.

"What if I say that I'm a secret agent work for his majesty the king himself? I want to know if there's a group with potential to disturb the peace in this kingdom. Heh, sorry. That's a lie."

A lie? I can find out if that's a lie or not. It's easy.

"Do you know Tim? Your boss?"

"What?!"

Her eyes opened widely from shock.

I can see that she knows Tim, her boss. Which means she's Ms. Wendy's colleague. Both of them are secret agents.

"I'll tell you later after this battle is over. I'll tell both you and the school teacher Ms. Wendy all I know about Tim. Ms. Wendy is here as well protecting her students."

"Wendy is here? Did she tell you about Tim?"

"Nope. I knew about Tim directly from the king himself. For now, I know that you are really a secret agent of the king, so I'll trust you."

Will I tell them about my identity as Ninja? Probably.

I no longer care about hiding my identity because there's a chance that someone from the cult finds out because of today's matter. Whether it will be someone who's able to escape from here, which I hope none of them makes it, or finding my address from seeing Ruby and the others inside the guild for protection.

Although there's still a chance that no one finds out, I still need to be cautious. It means we will have no choice but to move to Cassau earlier than planned.

Although Cassau is not the safest place, I've never heard any rumor related to the cult in Cassau from my past live.

There are obviously still some thugs or underworld organization similar to Sam's organization back when she's still in Melk, but I never heard of any huge incident caused by the cult in Cassau.

Well, if I see someone with an explosive devices inside their mouth, I'll just kill them silently.

I called out Blobby and turned her into a key to open the cage. Then I unlocked Candy's collar with Blobbykey but I didn't remove it yet.

"I've taken off your collar. Remove it later only when we're about to attack."

"When will we start attacking?"

"Soon, these guys will attack my friends and Ms. Wendy. If we attack too soon before they make their moves, there will be some people who will manage to escape. So we will only attack them from behind, few minutes after they begun to advance. Just before they reached Ms. Wendy and the others."

"Are you confident in killing everyone here? I think there are more than twenty advanced level mages here." Candy worried about the difference in number.

"Don't worry. If I can't do it, I'll just escape"

"…so you're confident in escaping, huh?"

"Yeah. After we create chaos from behind the enemy, they will be divided into two groups. First group will end up facing against us, and the other group will be facing Ms. Wendy and my friends."

I hope the strong mages will end up in the group that will face us. That way, the girls will be in a safer position. And I can escape shamelessly if they're too strong. At least it should be enough to stall for time until the girls escape.

For this plan, it will be better if I used a ranged attack, so I will be using Blobby as a gun or pistol.

It's something from Victoria's old world called Desert Eagle. But since we're not in a desert and there's nothing 'eagle' I can see about this weapon, I'll just call it Blobpistol.

When I called as such while Victoria is still there, she was angry at how terrible my naming sense is. At least it's original.

Anything Blobby transformed will be named Blob-something, and Victoria will be Victo-something. That's much easier to remember.

After testing it a few times, back before we returned to Melk, I already know how far this Blobpistol effective against enemy.

If it's human being without any protection, the furthest distance the bullet will be effective is when I shot at around 120 meter distance.

Of course the bullet is sharpened. Whenever I'm outside, I always make sure to get as many rocks I can carry and sharpened them all.

I will use this for this battle.

"Candy, you will stay here and pretend that collar still restricting your magic. Once they make a move, I think you will be left here. Probably with some guards. Try to kill them all and go to the most crowded location. I will try to make the enemies stay in one spot, then you will use your strongest magic to kill them all. Can you do it?"

"I'll try. Then how can we know the reason behind the attacks?"

"Let's try to at least keep their leader alive and interrogate him. He's the one that talked to you before, right?" I asked for her confirmation.

"Yes. I think he's even stronger than average advanced level mage."

"Okay. I'll contact Ms. Wendy and the others about our plan. If we said your name, Candy, to Ms. Wendy, she will know it's you, right?"

"Yes. It's my real name. How will you contact her?"

"With a ghost."

Seems like we worked Sonia too hard today. We already used her to move to where the others are many times.

She's a ghost, so I hope she won't get tired.

Well, it's the usual scene where I called Sonia, Candy got surprised, I told Sonia my plan, and then Sonia will tell the others.

After that Candy asked me about Sonia, and she also tried to gain some info about how I got to know Tim and the king. But I only said that I will tell both her and Ms. Wendy only after the fight is over. I can't have her think about other matters in a death or alive situation.

"Oh, right! Candy! If their leader told the others to bring you with them, you just need to pretend that the collar is still locked and wait until the right moment to escape. You are too strong to be together with their previous target, and now they met another target that cause them trouble? If the leader is smart, he will assume that we were working together. Then he might try to use you as a hostage. Just pretend that you can't use magic until the right moment. I'll try to kill everyone around you and you will use that chance to escape."

"Got it. But what if you can't kill everyone before I escape?"

"Then I will leave you and escape. I'll pray for your safety. Good luck in escaping."

After making our plan, I can see that there are multiple people coming here, so I hide after I lock the cage again. With Candy's power, I'm sure she can destroy the cage.

I can see that everyone is prepared to march. I guess it's already time.
