The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 1009: We Can’t be Passive Anymore

Few hours later, the attack finally stopped. We didn’t manage to end it. We just endured it until they stopped attacking us.

At the moment, the cult who attacked us stopped and they camped away from where the battle took place. Not just where I am, but also where other battles were. Except for the attack at the Royal Capital of Tatrama. Kayla and the others there managed to kill everyone.

But here, in a small country like this, everyone is too exhausted to continue the fight. That’s why we didn’t pursue the enemy any further. Even Shelia and the other monsters agreed with the leader in their respective place to stop the battle and rest.

"It’s most likely to be their plan. To exhaust us. They knew that the places they attacked didn’t have enough force to defeat them all. So that’s why they decided to use another plan. Instead of just going to destroy the target cities, they decided to exhaust everyone in the city," Sunglasses said.

After we confirmed it that all the attacks by the cult have been stopped and they started to camp, I quickly gathered the kings to Tatrama to decide our next move. And Sunglasses told us what he expected the cult to be doing right now.

"Among all the attack that happened, only cities from big country managed to win. Those from smaller countries didn’t have enough strength to fight continuously," Sunglasses continued.

"I don’t know about other battlefield, but where I fought, the enemies shouting everything they can about what I did and what they assumed I did. Does that happen in other place or is it just me?" I asked.

"Oh, I forgot to mention it. Yes, they shouted something when I came. They shouted that the living armor and the horse were fighting them. Try asking Graham, Crabbe, and Shelia," Victoria said.

Seriously? They’re really targeting me.

I asked Shelia, Graham, and Crabbe about it. And they all remember that someone shouted similar thing to what Victoria told me.

"Roy, can you tell us what they shouted about you? Only if you remember though. But maybe you can just bring the Spirit King here so he can read your memory if you forgot about it," Albert suggested.

And I told them what I heard from the cult as I killed them. Like how they assumed that I arrived there so quickly because I was riding Spot and they still assume that I’m a tamer.

"It’s not important whether they think of me as a tamer or not. What’s important is that they learned some things. I grew back my right hand. They knew that we have strong master level healer. And even though multiple battles happened at the same time, I’m sure that the cult has realized that Angela was nowhere to be seen. That’s also why I told the Spirit King to protect her. Even if I forget something, it’s best if we don’t ask the Spirit King for any help right now," I said.

"She might be talented, but she’s just one person. Should we really give her so much protection or breaking through?" someone asked.

"It’s called favoritism and I’m not ashamed to admit it," I said.

"Oh."

Well, that’s that about Angela. No one dares to complain about it anymore.

"They targeted Roy so that they can lure Angela. But she also didn’t come to save him. That’s the start. After that, everything happened. They might be looking for Angela right now. It’s best if we let the Spirit King stay in the mountain and continue using his illusion to protect that place," Sunglasses said.

It’s not just for Angela. But also for other mages to be able to reach master level. That’s why everyone agreed to it.

If that place is gone, we won’t have any other location where we can make progress as fast as when we do it there. Unless the Spirit King will still be alive and we have other location for the Spirit King and other spirits to stay.

After that, we discussed our next move. And I suggested that I and some monsters infiltrate the enemy camp and attack them right now.

I have killed most of their master level mages. But seems like there are still many of them who can communicate with someone. Isn’t it best if we just kill them all when they least expect it?

Then Marie told everyone about what she discovered.

"I found that the device that they made the maids to wear were listening device. And the signal is not strong. Very weak. So I’m sure that there’s also the cult’s base nearby for them to receive the signal," Marie said.

Since it has gotten this far, after the maids returned from delivering their reports, they were forced to get changed and give their clothes to people who will investigate the device. And Marie helped.

From what Marie told me, it means that whoever the people who were listening to what the people I killed shouted before shouldn’t be too far. And from there, there’s more hidden bases of the cult. It kept going until the cut can gather information from all over the continent.

The device they made couldn’t send and receive signal from too far away. So it’s impossible for the listener to be in Monsters World. And at most, they should be located in the next city to where the device was sending signal.

"Our communication device might be more advanced than theirs. But as Victoria said in the past. Long-distance communication is a powerful tool of war. Roy, don’t bother go for where the enemies were camping now. Go with Spot while being invisible and locate where the cult might be sending their signal to," Albert said.

"You think that’s easy? They can be anywhere! And if they want to, as long as there are two people or more at the location where they received the signal, they can pretend to make it as if two people were talking and there won’t be anything suspicious at all," I said.

"If we do that, the cult will also know that we found out about their technology. And all the things that the maids told them were all lies," Victoria added.

"That’s actually fine. You know what they did today. If we react poorly, many citizens will fall. As much as I’d like to destroy the cult, I don’t want the citizens to be fall because of my failure to protect them. I don’t want to stay passive anymore. We have to be the one actively fighting them instead of just waiting until they make their move," Albert said.

The other kings also agree with what Albert said. This means that we no longer have the leisure to think of a plan to lure the cult. Instead, we will actively fighting them no matter what happen.

"Fine, I will try to look for them. Marie, is there any way I can tell the device that the cult uses to receive the signal?" I asked Marie.

"Their device was made to be disguised as a normal part of the clothes. But they have their flaws. Even the receiving device leaked a bit of magic when they were used. You’re a master level summoner. But maybe you can tell when you feel that the device was being used," Marie said.

"Is that so? Then, what about the device to send the signal that the maids wore?" I asked.

"They also leaked a bit of magic. At least more than what your phone gives," Marie said.

So it’s like the phones. Then maybe I can find them.

"Since that’s the case, then let’s make sure that the cult knows we’re going all out. You still have the device you took from the maids, right?" I asked.

Everyone stood in shock after hearing what I’m planning. But none of them rejected the idea. Even Albert was smiling.

"Roy, I’ll take care of telling the cult. We found them in Tatrama, so I’ll take responsibility in challenging the cult," Albert said.

"Then let’s hear what you have to say. Marie, where are they?" I asked.

Marie then told me where I should go to get the device they took from the maids. Then I brought them back and give them to Albert who has prepared his words of challenge to the cult.

"To the people who are listening. Tell your boss that I had enough! We will no longer wait until you move so we can make our move! From now on, we will actively pursue you! We will find you and we will destroy everything about you! Not just Tatrama! But also every country in this continent will come after you!"

Every country? Does it mean that we have managed to make a contact and agreement with other smaller countries that haven’t joined us yet? That’s great.

"Roy, have you sensed the magic coming out from that device?" Marie asked me.

"I have. I guess it’s time to move," I said.

No more waiting. I will even flip a mountain to look for the cult. Considering that they have a facility under a valley, then flipping a mountain might be a good idea.
