The Only Aura User In Magic World

748 Showing Great Leadership

Five people on the stage. One against four. But the match hasn’t started yet.

The bodyguard of a king from another kingdom is discussing his strategy to the other three.

I can’t hear him from here. But from the look of it, he has managed to convince the three monsters to obey his command.

That alone has proved his power. He should be someone with a position to lead a group in a fight. Or war.

I glanced at the king he’s protecting. The king brought three guards with him so there are still two other protecting him. One of them is actually his wife he said. That’s not bodyguard then. That’s the queen.

Three people from a small kingdom, and all of them are expert level mages. Small it might be, that kingdom should be something special.

Albert has confirmed that everyone attending the meeting, Kings, Empress, president, bodyguards, and other people they brought can all be trusted. All of them want to destroy the cult and are willing to cooperate with us in it.

Though the biggest problem we currently have in this alliance is that no one believe that I’m the strongest one here. That must be the reason why Albert suggested for us to have a friendly match.

Later, I will fight. And I will show them who I really am. An Aura user. And I will defeat everyone I fight. If possible.

.....

We also have several master level mages who hadn’t had their turn yet. I might be the one facing them. Though I don’t think that’s the case since Angela and the others seem interested in them.

I don’t think anyone among the master level mage is as strong as the cat-man or the Archbishop in that village with slave trading as their business. So it should be fine. We won’t lose.

Well, for now I’ll just watch my disciple fight.

The guy whose name I forgot, has finished discussing his strategy to the other four. And from the look of it, it seems like the other monsters told him about Jewel’s beastform to him as well.

I forgot his name. Or maybe he wasn’t introduced to the others since I only hear the kings introduced themselves and not other people they brought. But he has something that is different from other people. His sunglasses. So I wrote his name in my contact as Sunglasses.

He wore them because he’s blind. He can’t see. But he uses air magic to determine other people’s location.

He’s an air mage! Just like me!

Airy also confirmed it. That guy has noticed Airy’s presence. So his king must have known about her existence as well. Though since it’s already known that I’m a summoner, he might be thinking that Airy is my familiar. But she’s not.

He’s an air mage, but he got to his position without using it. I’m sure of it. So he must have other element he’s excel at.

Well, before the match started, I’ll give him something then.

“Wait! Don’t start the match yet!”

I’m curious. He could convince an angel and two werewolves to follow him in such a short time even though he’s neither a summoner or a tamer. If he could be stronger, that would be beneficial for us.

I’m going to give him a rifle. That will help him to get a bit stronger. And his air element should have reached expert level as well. The same as Sara and I.

I jumped to the stage and approached Sunglasses before opening a portal and grabbed a rifle and hand it to him.

“A gift to an air mage. It’s called a rifle. I’ll show you how to use this,” I said.

I’m acting like a professor here. Well, I am a professor.

“Feel the air around you so you know how to use it. First, put the bullets inside like this. Then, compress air inside the barrel, and release it to shoot. Simple, quick, but only has limited use depend on how much bullets you have.”

I taught him how to shoot the rifle and how to reload. He understood it instantly.

I made some Blobbies to be his targets for practice. Although his accuracy is bad, it was good enough. Comparable to the student at the university.

It wasn’t difficult to teach him how to shoot even though he’s blind. He can sense everything with air magic. Any slightest movement can be sensed. And if there’s someone invisible like Airy or Breezy, he can sense them since there’s an empty space where there’s no air can pass through. Or more like air was somehow entering an empty spot, then suddenly leaving that empty spot. Which means that something is breathing over there. Neither Airy nor Breezy need to breathe. They still do it though.

After he felt satisfied enough with the rifle, I left and returned back to my seat where other kings are watching at me.

“You’re teaching him how to shoot and gave him a rifle? Is that okay for your disciple?” Lynn asked.

“Jewel prefers it this way. She enjoys fighting someone at their full strength. That way, she herself can improve. Though it won’t be the first time she’s fighting someone who can shoot. And Sunglasses must have other element he’s confident in to be able to get into his position. Jewel will surely enjoy the match this way,” I said.

The kings then started asking about me, about air element magic, and about the rifle. I told them that only air mage can use them. The guns that Albert and Marie had should be something that best kept secret. It’s far too dangerous for other people to know.

A weapon that anyone, even toddler, can use is dangerous. So it should be kept secret.

The match started. The angel is wielding a sword and not a spear like most angels.

The angels have a treasury full of weapons from monsters they defeated. And now that they have learned that they are more suited with other weapons, many angels started testing what kind of weapon suit them most. Though for Graham, he’s still using a spear.

Graham said that the archangel from before is going back to his home so he can convince other angels to join us. I hope he can get them here.

The angel surprisingly is the first one to attack Jewel. But Jewel dodged it and about to cast lightning magic when two werewolves approached her. She dodged them again and about to counter when Sunglasses shot his rifle at her.

Unable to dodge, Jewel transformed into half-rhino and protected her own body with her thick skin. Or maybe it’s half-triceratops. I’ll just call it half-rhino.

She fought the four of them in that form. And Sunglasses shoots at her with the rifle while preparing his other magic. Ice magic.

Feeling overwhelmed since they stopped her from using lightning magic, Jewel turned into a triceratops to protect herself. Now, she would only receive little damage when attacked.

And in that form, Jewel can calmly prepare her magic. Her endurance is high so she just need to endure the opponents’ attack.

But the werewolves are strong enough to leave a huge mark on her triceratops’ skin. Still, she endured it.

That is amazing. The group cooperation is really good even though it’s the first time that they working together. Usually, it was just werewolf with another werewolf. Or angel with another angel.

Add one person to be the leader, a very capable person at that, and everything changed.

It wasn’t just me. Kayla and everyone watching were amazed with the fight.

While the new members of the alliance were amazed by Jewel who can transform into a very powerful triceratops and can even use earth magic even though she shouldn’t have it, we who knew her the longest were amazed by Sunglasses.

We have been in many battles. Many lives were lost. And we know that if there’s someone with better situational judgment and can give proper command, there would be less casualties.

Kayla as the smartest would think of a plan beforehand, but during a fight, she couldn’t do much.

If Sunglasses are willing to be taught air magic, like how to made his voice louder, he can be a great general in the future. He just need more experience in a large scale battle. That’s what we’re thinking.

But in the end, he’s losing. Jewel is stronger and has more experience than him. But we can’t just laugh at his effort. He was just too good.

The rifle became useless after Jewel transformed, so he threw it away. He made the floor slippery, but Jewel’s used her control of the earth that she learned to make foothold and charged at Sunglasses.

But as he was about to get hit, the werewolves and the angels blocked Jewel’s charge. She stopped right in front of Sunglasses who was about to shoot ice magic at her.

He made a mistake. When he had just threw his magic, Jewel transformed back into her human form which is smaller. Avoiding the three monsters and shock Sunglasses with lightning magic.

He lost his consciousness. And the monsters no longer have their leader, so the battle became easier for Jewel.

She finally won. It took a while since the angel was also responsible for healing the others instead of just letting the werewolves heal by themselves. But Jewel is the winner in the end.

If Sunglasses’ learned magic control, has more use of his air magic, and has just a bit more experience, it would be Jewel who lost.

But this is also a great lesson for him. He could be stronger and help us even more. So maybe I should remember his name. Or not. Sunglasses already stuck in my mind.
