The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 899: Reaction Time: Stampede

This is embarrassing. For my past to be seen by others. Why didn’t I feel embarrassed before?

Maybe because I never thought that I have something that would make me cringe after watching it.

For starter, about the truth of my birth.

No one here other than Angela and the others whom I brought from Cassau knew that I’m a prince. So as soon as the illusion started, they got noisy from talking about my birth.

And meanwhile, the Spirit King paused the illusion so it stopped right when the former King himself is telling my mother to never tell that fact to anyone.

As for me, I was just staring at my father’s face. So that’s the face of my father. As for my mother, although I have forgotten about her, there are some things that I remembered.

Yeah, the former King of Tatrama has a lot of similarities with Albert. And me. Though I look more like my mother than the royalty.

As for the others, they were talking about how unfair it is that Tatrama got everything. From the foundation of the alliance, it’s started from Tatrama, to the Aura Master, me. They have everything. And even the genius Marie invented new things here. Even the Blacksmith is now living in Tatrama.

And I had to say it many times to not call me the prince. Because I’m the king of monster tribes.

Then Randy greeted me as his cousin. Now that I think about it, he’s Albert’s and Shirley’s cousin. Which makes him my relative.

Then there’s Mustache who was shocked and opened his mouth very wide. I’m afraid that his mustache could fall down.

He wasn’t there when I brought Shirley back to Albert’s place. So he didn’t know at all about that fact.

As for Alan and Lana, they were happy that I’m their uncle. The one who helped their mother gave birth to them is their uncle.

"Now you can’t call me Pleb again," I said to Lana.

"But you refused to be recognized as royalty. So you’re still a plebian for Lana," Albert said jokingly.

It’s just a few minutes after my birth, but there’s a lot of things to negotiate. And maybe this will be the longest negotiation.

And in the end, everyone accepted that I’m neutral. Tatrama was just lucky to have me as they got a lot of advantage.

And then I had to watch some important events from my childhood. Until my parents’ death. Well, it was actually my mother and my stepfather, I guess.

"Roy, you don’t feel anything hearing about your parents’ death?" Victoria asked.

"From the things that I still have in my memory, I still remember that. And I have come to term with it. So there’s nothing to worry about. Anyway, I will die as well anyway," I said.

Right now, we’re on a break. It felt like we have been watching the illusion for a really long time, but it was only less than an hour. And it’s time to take a break.

The most shocking thing was just that my father is the former King. Other than that, there’s nothing important.

I don’t even care about that village anymore. Well, I lived longer in another village as a doctor than I was living there. So I don’t feel anything at all.

"Roy, let’s visit that village and check on the Village Chief. He’s still alive, right? Then we can ask him if there’s other things that my father... our father told him to keep as secret," Albert said.

"Yeah. From the looks of it, the Village Chief seems to be trusted by the former King. So he should at least know one or two secrets. Though I don’t know if it’s anything important or not," I said.

I guess that’s where we should go after this. To my home village near Melk. And I don’t even remember about the name of that village. It has never been mentioned even in my past.

At least I still remember where it is even though I have never marked that place with Blobby. So I can just go there from Melk.

"That’s what I want to suggest to you. To return back to your village and ask the chief if he remembers anything. Let’s hope that he’s still alive. At least in this life, we prevented the stampede and your village survive," Victoria said.

Right. The stampede. That’s what happened in my past life.

We still haven’t gotten there yet in the illusion. Still on a break after my parents died.

They thought that I would be feeling down after watching it. But no. It’s something that although blurry, I still remember.

Though it’s true that we need to ask the Village Chief about what he know about my past. And it has been so long since I last visited. Maybe I need to do another cleaning since there might be some new members of the village who actually parts of the cult.

Then the illusion continued. And everyone saw me awaken only my summoning element.

Angela and Kayla was there as well. Though I was not close with them at all at the time. And Wendy wasn’t there yet since she hasn’t transferred to our school at this time.

Then I trained with Blobby. I also tried to kill it many times. And the whole time we were watching it, Victoria is hitting me over and over again.

Sorry, but that’s what happen when you have a weak Black Slime as your summoned familiar and you don’t have other element to make you strong.

Then school started. And Kayla was no longer there. She should be dead already.

"Well, sorry, but in my past life, you will see that you have died. Even if you don’t see it, just expect that you will die," I said as I hold Kayla’s hand. Even if it wasn’t seen, she’s shaken to imagine that she’s already dead.

I worked as a hunter and gather herbs. That’s the only thing I can do. Then Wendy arrived and everyone watched me falling in love for the first time. Along with other school boys.

Alright, this is getting embarrassing. Please skip it. It’s unnecessary.

Finally, the stampede happened. This is the real stampede that would have happened if I didn’t prevent it in this life.

The people here must have experienced hardship in this life. But they are still alive.

But in the illusion, or in the past that would have happened if I didn’t intervene, this is what will happen. Death and destruction.

Of course at this time, we covered the kids’ eyes so they don’t have to watch it. Though for Harold, he told Luna to watch it since this is the truth of what a stampede is.

Luna herself has watched a lot of terrible things with her Future Vision. In some of them, she must have seen many things that a child shouldn’t see. That’s why she’s fine watching it. Though her mother is behind her holding her shoulder.

As for Alan and Lana, even though they were told to cover their eyes and ears, they insist on watching. Because they are the Prince and the Princess. And this is the past life of their uncle.

After my experience in the stampede, it’s time for another break.

As expected, it should be time for lunch, but none of them are touching their meals. Except for me who can still eat it.

"...If someone who experienced it can still eat hearthily, then I should do the same," Albert said as he started eating.

Then everyone else also started eating.

Meanwhile, I asked the Spirit King to replay the illusion in some parts. And I found Lina ripped to pieces because of monsters, and also Sophie who got crushed under the destroyed building.

"Right. I never bothered to check who is who because I was just too shocked after watching it," Shirley said.

This time, I consoled Lina and Sophie. Telling them that it’s okay, because I will protect them from now on.

Unfortunately, I didn’t see Daniel, Hannah, Penny, Ruby, and Oleg.

Daniel was abandoned by his mother, so he might be dead already since I didn’t find him in my past life.

As for Hannah, Penny, and Ruby, I think they must be dead as well since the building that Sophie got crushed under is the same brothel where they work.

As for Oleg, my guess is that he’s fighting in the frontline against the monsters and died. Because even after the stampede was over, I have never seen him.

I didn’t bother looking for Kron. We never met in my past life, so I guess he must have flying to another city already. Or that he’s dead because of the orcs.

In the illusion, there’s also the event where the orcs attacked Melk. But there were too many casualties even though Melk ended up safe. And there were not as many orcs as the ones that attacked in this life.

Though at the time of the event, I was at home in my village. So I only heard the news the next day when I went to school.

It’s a huge tragedy. And it will happen again if the cult is not stopped.

I guess it’s good that we let everyone see what will happen if the cult is not stopped. Now everyone is more focused on destroying the cult.
