The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 671: Visiting a Tattoo Parlor

At night, Randy and I are going to meet the tattoo artist that Randy knows. He said that the tattoo artist is someone that he can trust, so I asked Albert when Randy was taking a nap.

“A tattoo artist that he can trust? Well, Randy used to play around so much when he was a child. And he met some tough-looking people covered with scars and tattoos and play with them. And they used to be the one in charge of raising our agents until they decided to leave and leave it to the one who raises Candy and became our shadow bodyguard. Though thanks to you, he has been captured because of his relation with the cult. I think they can be trusted. I have met them again recently and asked them to teach new recruits again. And they are willing to do it to atone for picking the wrong person as the one inheriting their position,” Albert explained.

So, Randy has been playing with the teachers of the agents from way before. And maybe that’s where he learn about everything. And that’s how he became this way.

When I asked him if they are the reason that he knows many things, he nodded.

“Yeah. My parents didn’t like how I always play around with them. Not only because they are rough-looking people, but because they are much older than me who was just a kid. I was just a kid who loves justice and wanted to be a hero. Although they never told me any confidential stories, the stories that they were allowed to tell me make me interested in their former job as agents and make me wants to learn more. Though I didn’t know that they were agents back then. I only know when the king at that time, Albert’s father and my uncle, told them to teach me anything I want to learn,” Randy said.

“I see. Since they are willing to teach again, maybe there will be more agents as good as you are. I really need to find and kill the Evil God before the cult’s force becomes bigger and stronger,” I said.

“The one we’re going to meet today is called Hendrick. An old man who is now living as a tattoo artist. As long as he’s still alive, I know where he’s at,” Randy said.

.....

I followed him and we walked to a district where commoners are living. And it’s close to the slum area of the capital. Though the slum here is not as bad as the slum in other cities.

There are several tattoo or piercing shops here. Though I don’t need neither. But I’m confident with my piercing ability. Like putting a hole in someone’s stomach or even head. I can do that easily.

It’s night time now, so it’s normal that there are no open shops. And some even have the owner of the shop sleeping already.

And when we got closer to a certain tattoo parlor, the owner who was sleeping suddenly awake and carefully peeking at us from the window of his bedroom.

“Randy, is that the place we’re going to?” I asked.

“Yeah. You know already?” Randy asked back.

“Just now. I can see the owner is acting like an agent. He’s quite good. How is his magic level?” I asked.

“I don’t know. But I don’t think he’s expert level mage. At most, he’s just an advanced level mage,” Randy said.

We’re about fifty meters from that place, but even though he’s just an advanced level, he can tell that someone is getting closer. He’s another super spy. It’s amazing.

“Do you think he still remember you? It has been a long time since you last meet him, right? And you even got a lot of scars,” I asked Randy.

“Don’t worry about it. Even if he’s fighting back, he won’t be any stronger than either one of us. Until the tournament happened, I was convinced that I’m the strongest person in the whole kingdom. At least just below master level mage. But when I saw your girlfriend defeating Shirley, I know that I’m lacking. But I’m still stronger than most people,” Randy said.

“I see. By the way, Angela is not my only girlfriend. You have met Kayla and Candy as well. And there are more. By the way, this here is Airy. An air spirit,” I said as I pointed at my left shoulder.

“Hmm? There’s nothing there though?” Randy said.

After he said that, Airy showed herself to Randy temporarily before disappearing again. Though I can see her and also feel her because I’m an air mage.

“Oh. I heard that elemental spirits will help mages grow stronger faster. I have never seen one before until now,” Randy said.

“There are other monsters I will introduce to you. But we’ll do that later,” I said.

We’re already in front of the tattoo parlor. And Randy knocked on the door.

“...I guess he doesn’t remember you anymore. Should I break the door?” I asked.

“No need. I’ll just pour some sand inside from the gap of the door. Although I have never trained magic control to fight, I can still use earth magic to manipulate sand and write messages with it,” Randy said.

So he never used magic control for fighting, but he has used it for writing message. I guess it won’t take long for him to learn everything since he already understands it. I wonder how strong he will be after training?

The sand enter from the gap under the door, and it climbed on the door with a message saying ‘I’m Randy. Open the door’. And Hendrick who is already on the first floor read the message. Without hesitation, he opened the door.

After we both enter, he closed the door and locked it.

“Randy? You’re Randy? It has been a long time since we last met! You become a lot uglier than before. What the hell happened?”

...the man called Hendrick didn’t say that to Randy. But he said that to me.

“I’m not Randy! And who the hell is ugly?! You’re ugly!”

“Don’t shout! We don’t want to wake the neighbor!” Randy said.

“I use air magic to block the noise from leaving! We can scream as much as we want here!” I said.

Only then, the man noticed that I’m not Randy. And the Randy he knows is the man who is covered with scars next to me.

“Randy! What happened?! Who did this to you?!” Hendrick shouted.

“Himself. He did it himself because of a resolute decision. He said that you can be trusted. He needed tattoo to make it so that no one can recognize him anymore,” I said.

“Yeah. Hendrick, please do it. How long will it finish?” Randy asked.

We haven’t explained anything to Hendrick, but he seems to understand that we did it because we had to.

“If you want a full body tattoo, it will take long. But if it’s to make it so no one recognize you, just your face alone should be enough. And I can finish it in one night,” Hendrick said.

“Then just the face alone is good enough. But I might ask for more later. Maybe let some scars be visible as well. Can you do it now? We can talk while you do it,” Randy said

“Okay. This seems to be urgent. By the way, who is this rude guy calling me ugly?” Hendrick asked.

“You’re the one being rude to me! You’re calling me ugly right away!” I shouted.

Oh shit. This former agent seems to be senile already. Can we really trust him?

“At the moment, he’s the one that Albert trusts the most. I just met him a few days ago so I don’t really now much about him. But Albert has confirmed it that he’s someone that Albert can trust with his life,” Randy said.

“...Are you Ninja?” Hendrick asked.

“Oh, I never thought that someone still remember my nickname when I want to do some criminal act. That’s something we come up with as a disguise for whenever I broke the law. But it’s all for a good reason. To kill traitors,” I said.

“I see. So, do you want to get some tattoo as well?” Hendrick asked.

“No. I’m just here to see you since Randy said that you can be trusted and since Albert has said that he trusts you as well. I think I have seen enough. Randy, you can use my mansion whenever you’re in the capital. I’ll be returning to the circus now. I have a show to do,” I said.

“You’re still going to play in the circus?” Randy asked.

“Obviously. Tomorrow, I’ll get Angela to be your sparring partner. That way you can experience how strong the strongest mage really is,” I said.

After leaving, I opened portal in the sky when no one can see me and I’m back in the circus. Because of the fight, there are some destruction and the circus members are helping rebuilding the city. Some citizens apologizing for throwing stones at them. Though they still think that they are just members of a circus and not some special agents sent by the kingdom.

This is good. Everyone has started to feel what freedom is. And I bet tomorrow night we will have a full attendance. That’s nice.
