The Only Aura User In Magic World Chapter 246: Just Another Peaceful Moment

Chapter 246: Just Another Peaceful Moment

The next morning after breakfast, I decided to walk around the city. I haven't properly checked the whole city since I moved here. And it's also to see if there are more people hiding something bad.

Since there's no plan for today, I decided to do it.

Hmm… now that I think about it, this city is quite big. There are many places I haven't entered yet.

Let's see… this city can be divided into two area. The common area is near the wall, and the n.o.ble district in the middle of the city.

The n.o.ble district is basically the place where the n.o.bles in this city lived.

As for the common area, it's divided again into four. First is the residential area, which most commoners lived in including me.

Then there's business district where most stores are located. The hunter guild is also located there to makes it easier for hunters to buy supplies.

After that is the academy district where the school and college are located. Jewel is going to the school in this area. I will also attend the medical school here in the future. The medical school is next to the magic academy, and they are affiliated to each other.

Lastly, it's the slum. That's the place with the least security in this city. Most bad people hide there. And that's the only place I ever explore in this city after we moved here.

I thought that since there's a slum in this city, that place might be used for the cult members to hide. And I was right. After moving here, I killed several cult members until I no longer see any of them in the cult.

And knowing that there is no more cult member in the slum, I think that's the reason why I let down my guard and no longer care to explore the whole city. And that's a mistake. After all, instead of those in the slum, the n.o.bles have more influence and more dangerous.

As for the residential and business district, I'm there most of the time I'm in this city. I think these places are safe.

And so, I went to check on the slum again and the n.o.ble district. Everything odd that I see, I reported them to the agents staying in this city. They will report to Albert who is investigating this city incognito.

The agents also looking for the guards that were bribed by the n.o.ble to let the thugs enter the city.

I think that should be enough to make the city safe. We have just been focused on the cult that we forget about the other criminal. But thanks to last night's event, we have become more wary on other threat than just the cult.

Well, that's one thing taken care of, I guess. I'll just go check on the city regularly from now on. I guess once a week?

As for the n.o.bles from last night, Albert told me via Sonia that they have too many crimes written under their name. They can't avoid death penalty.

As for their maids, servants, and everyone in their mansion, they are still being investigated. But seems like the n.o.bles' wives and children also did something bad as well. Although it's lighter than those three, they still deserve punishment.

Albert will soon announce the removal of those three and their family from n.o.bility.

The former slaves, most of them are from Ca.s.sau. So, I'll bring them here later along with Albert who want to investigate other n.o.bles in this city.

I guess today, I only need to make sure that no one escape from Ca.s.sau.

In the evening, Albert has finished investigating about the n.o.bles in this city and he's resting in my place.

He told me about the n.o.ble cult member we captured. Only he alone is a member of the cult, as everyone in his family don't know about it.

He was put in solitary cell for Albert to interrogate further.

"Sigh… this just makes two. Melk city, and Ca.s.sau. There are too many cities in this kingdom and I don't know how will we finish checking them all." Albert sighed.

"Hmm? What about the capital?" I asked.

"People come and go frequently in the capital. It's nearly impossible to have everyone checked. If only I could have at least one n.o.ble ally in each city in this kingdom. That would take care of many things. Melk is already taken care of, but I haven't found anyone good enough in this city."

"Idiot. There are already three vacancies in this city. You just need to appoint someone you can trust to take care of this city. Then that's one more thing taken care of." I suggested.

Albert pondered for a while, and he suddenly stand up from his seat.

"That's right! I can just alter their ident.i.ties into a lower n.o.ble from countryside, or make them a relative of a n.o.ble! As for who… I guess one of the agents will be good. Alright, I need to go back and discuss it with Hector! Return me home now, Roy!" Albert asked me to transport him with portal.

"Is that how you ask for a favor? I guess that's how a king did it."

I quickly open a portal and threw Albert into the portal.

"Is that how you treat a king!?" Albert shouted before I closed the portal.

"Yes."

I closed the portal before he could complain.

Now, this city should be safe. I'll just think of what we'll be doing tomorrow in the lake. I guess we will have barbeque again. Nice…

I can't wait especially knowing what kind of swimsuit the girls have bought yesterday. I can forgive them using my money for those swimsuits.

Since it's their first time wearing such outfits that reveal too much of their bodies, Celestine and Veronica both are trying them on in their own room. Nice…

One thing I learn from them is that they can sense people within their range, but they can't tell what those people are doing. So, I'm safe.

The next day, I used portal to travel everyone, including the orphans, to the lake. Today is a rare occasion of where the park next to my house is not full with children.

Since the lake is a long distance from the main road, and we also hunted most of the monsters there, there's shouldn't be anyone who knows about this lake other than us. That's why a few month ago, I built a shack near the lake since the girls said that they don't want to wear swimsuit from home. I don't get why they do that, but I don't mind.

Wearing swimsuit from home is much easier than bringing clothes and change them in the location. I can just transport everyone later when we're done playing.

Since we're just playing, I called Shelia here as well. She's well-liked by the orphans as well as they played with her wolf form. She allowed all the children to ride on her back as she run around the lake. It has become some kind of attraction.

… the girls have changed. But there's something disappointing. Celestine and Veronica didn't dare to wear revealing swimsuits! They wore a shirt and shorts!

I guess I wished too much.

Whatever. At least the others are already used to them so they are fine wearing swimsuits.

After praising the girls with their new swimsuits, they are all running to the lake. And play. They splashed each other with water, and play with the children.

…what about swimming practice?

I guess that's for later. I still have someone I need to call first.

It was Kron. He said that he's coming and told me to transport him with portal here.

As for the reason he's coming… because it's time.

It's finally the time for us to build a clan!

I opened up a portal to a Blobby that he has, and the two portals connected with each other.

"Hey, Kr- Wha-!!"

"I can't stop!!!"

What I don't know is that he's currently flying at a high speed, so when I opened a portal, I was slammed by his body and got blown away.

We both got sunk into the lake, and I can see Kron losing his consciousness. As for me, I'm barely managed to protect myself with Aura, so I didn't receive much damage. But I need to get thrown away since if I don't, it will only give more damage to Kron and he might die. Even now, he's already lost his consciousness and we sunk deeper into the lake.

I pushed some air into his lung with magic, and carried him to the surface. But d.a.m.n, his body has grown bigger! Hill and the others in Mellian have successfully turned him into… this bulk of muscles! I think he got the body than even bigger than the biggest among Hill's people.

…since he's unconscious, I guess we can't discuss about the clan here. Let's have him rest in the shack. I will just enjoy swimming today.

We played until the children started to get tired, and sleepy. The girls also taught those who can't swim, while I'm teaching some who wanted to dive. We enjoyed so much today, but Kron didn't even enjoy anything. He's still fainted in the shack.

And since we have finished playing, the girls need to use the shack to change again. So, I carried him outside.

Like I said, why do they need to change in the shack instead of at home?

By the time everyone has changed, Kron finally wakes up.

"What did I miss?"

"Girls in revealing clothes playing with water."

"…so, I missed half of my life's worth of happiness?"

"Probably more. Why are you flying anyway?" I asked.

"Since I was just in the next city, I thought that it would be faster if I just fly here."

"I see. So, you're stupid. I have told you and show you as well that using portal is much faster, but you ignore my warning. The girls have changed, so let's discuss about the clan at home." I said.

"I'll go home on my own this time. It will be weird if no one notices the appearance of an S-rank hunter in the city. See you later!"

With that, Kron returns to Ca.s.sau on his own. I guess I'll introduce Celestine and Veronica at home.

By the time Kron arrives, we are about to prepare for dinner.
