The Only Aura User In Magic World-Chapter 737 - 737 The Captured Children’s Guardians

737 The Captured Children’s Guardians

After I finished with the girls, it’s time for the kids.

I opened a portal to Consenza to check on Celestine and the kids I brought over from the lawless country. And the master level mages who joined us mid-battle in the lawless country are there as well.

From what I’ve heard, none of the master level mages cause trouble. That’s good. They are truly thinking of the children.

The location where I brought those kids before is quite a distance from the capital of Consenza. Just in case the master level mages cause trouble. But seems like they won’t attack us at all.

Anyway, those master level mages don’t feel like the cat-man. I don’t think they will just go and betray us easily. Though whether they will join us or not is still to be asked.

I want to bring Albert here to meet them, but I will refrain to do so first.

Sonia is checking on the place where they delivered supplies from. I don’t know where that place is located. If there’s any agent from any of the four countries, Sonia should be able to find them since they supposed to have the soil from her land. But that doesn’t seem to be the case.

A city big enough to have that much supply, but there’s no agent there. That’s suspicious.

As a rule ever since we made the alliance, there should be at least two agents carrying the soil from Sonia’s land in every city agents were dispatched. But in that place, there’s no sign of the soil at all.

.....

So, it’s highly likely that there won’t be any agents there.

There’s also a chance that the agents sent over there were found and the soil is somehow disappear. But if that happens, that mean they know what the soil is for.

But unless we have traitors, it shouldn’t be possible for anyone to know about the soil. Unless someone out there capable to sense traces of Charm magic in the soil.

Too much thinking. My brain can’t take it. Again, I will leave the thinking to the others.

Other than for fighting and medical knowledge, I’m not really good at thinking about other things. Maybe I should also leave the store management to someone else. I guess the inn-owner of the inn I stayed in the cult’s base should be good enough to do it. But I haven’t heard about her saying that she’s going to do it.

I’ll ask her later. For now, it’s the children and the master level mages here. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

Some distance from the capital of Consenza, there’s a village newly built. It’s created by Celestine’s and others’ earth magic. It was supposed to be a temporary shelter, but Celestine was just that good at magic so the buildings were strong enough to stand for decades. Not like a village at all.

“Celestine, how is it?” I asked.

“The kids have trouble adapting to peaceful life here. And the master level mages and other adults who are the guardians of the kids take turns in protecting the kids. So we built the largest building over there for the kids and their guardians to stay. The adults still don’t trust us yet,” she said.

“Obviously. After all, what I did was basically kidnapping. And now that they will live differently, they have to adapt. They should be introduced to live in a city somewhere. But I guess everyone is too busy right now that they can’t do it. Am I right?” I asked.

“That’s right. Lynn and Claudia said that it’s best for them to stay here before they can go to a city. Even if they go to a city, someone need to watch over them. But we still don’t know the location of the city Sonia is currently scouting. If it’s anywhere within our territory, then we need to get ready for it. That’s why we can’t spare many people to watch over the kids. And leaving them to civilians to watch is difficult,” she said.

Leaving these kids who would even grab a weapon to kill someone right away to civilians is out of the question indeed. Even now, some of the kids already started brawling. The adults watching over them then used magic to separate the brawling kids.

I don’t think they could even have a peaceful live. But what if they become trained as agents? Or maybe just soldiers if they want to fight that badly.

Once those kids awakened their magic elements, they could use it for crimes and got themselves arrested right away.

As someone who also takes care of children, I don’t want any kids to grow up and sent to jail right away. We need someone to teach them something.

Then I meet the kids guardians and the master level mages. I told them my concerns.

“Well... we want to do that if possible. I don’t want them to grow up like us and do bad things. Unfortunately, we were born there as well. And we grew up committing crimes to survive. We only learned we’re not normal once we’re adults. Even then, for us, this is normal and we don’t know how to change it,” one of the master level mage said that.

She’s the master level mage that helped me after knowing that I brought the kids to safety. She helped me after I delivered her sister and nieces here. And her sister is here as well.

I looked at everyone, and all of them seems to have the same mindset. They want these kids to live peacefully.

So I just said the truth to them.

“You do know that peaceful life is impossible at the moment, right? We have the cult that you used to be the member of. They wanted world destruction. The only way for the kids to life in peace is to let them be ignorant about the world. Or if the cult is destroyed before the kids grow up,” I said.

“So... you want us to join you in destroying the cult?” the female master level mage asked.

“That would be great. But you can think about the answer later. For now, I want to hear from those who knows the relationship between that country and the cult is. I saw your king was having a discussion with someone from the cult. And I don’t think that those of you who have reached master level did it by yourselves. The cult must have some involvement in making more people reach master level.”

Some of them left to take care of the kids while the rest are here talking with me.

They were indeed members of the cult. Or those who were not, know the connection between the country and the cult.

It was originally a country founded by a pirate. Originally with the intention to have everyone be free. But soon after, he was killed by the Barbarian King. So, instead of being a free country away from nobility and people in high position to rule over the civilians, it became country where nothing matters.

Instead of freedom, it’s called lawless.

I heard that at first, Varadis didn’t even care about the country. But after the Barbarian King took over, everything changed.

And how did the Barbarian King defeat the first ruler of the country? He has reached master level in his ice element before fighting. And ever since, he only grow stronger.

And yes, the reason he could become strong was because of the cult’s help. There’s even one person here who used to be under the Barbarian King directly and was also involved with the cult directly. Good thing he turned over.

Yup. I understand one thing after hearing everything. It’s that I... don’t really care about it. I shouldn’t have asked then. It’s just a waste of time.

“I don’t know when, but sooner or later, you will meet someone important who will probably ask you the same question I asked. Just tell them everything. They will decide what to do with you. As for me, what I can do for you and the kids, is to give you a job if you need any. Though it won’t be right away,” I said.

They became confused after I said that. But it’s true. Listening to how and why something happened will make me lose my interest too soon. Unless it’s something important to me. But their story doesn’t interest me at all.

I just promise them an opening for a job if any of them want to. I guess I should ask Claudia to prepare a location for me to open my store and the production factory here. And I’ll ask the other kings as well later.

At least from what I’ve seen here, the master level mages and the kids’ guardians don’t have any interest in fighting us. I didn’t sense any hostility from them.

But is it safe now? No. Because I can feel hostility from the kids. Probably from those who tried to stab me before when I was carrying them.

It will be bad if those kids have been taught bad things and to join the cult. I hope the kids won’t think of being our enemy.

Anyway... I’m here. But where are Angela and Kron? They’re supposed to be here, right?
