The Only Aura User In Magic World
Chapter 17 - Departing

That night, there were less girls sleeping in my room.

Does… does it means my charm is weakening?

Turns out that the girls who weren't there was accompanying their guests who paid for a service until morning. That's why they didn't come by.

Then the next morning after breakfast, I left to school. Not for studying. Well, it's not like I did go to school for studying. I always went there to sleep on my desk since I would exercise until I was dead tired every morning so I could gain my Aura.

Anyway, I went there to meet my party members, Kayla and Angela, and tell them that I will be leaving. Then I would ask the teacher for exam schedule and school event since I wouldn't want to miss it if want to graduate so I can go to medical school. The requirement to attend was to at least graduate introductory school.

According to my previous life, there won't be any important school event at least for months. But since I did some different things in this life, there might be a chance that it will change.

At school, I asked one teacher about it, and there really won't be anything important at least for a few months so he gave me permission to leave until then. I also hope that I will replace the monster I need to defeat as soon as possible. At least I want to finish it in one month.

Then I walked to the classroom. Somehow it feels a little noisy in the class. What happened while I was gone?

As soon as I entered the classroom I see Angela being surrounded by our classmates, and even those form different classes. For Kayla, it was natural for here to be here since she's close with Angela, but for the others?

Kayla who noticed I entered the classroom approached me. She seemed worried.

"Roy! Where did you go back then? Angela and I were looking for you everywhere. We were really worried that you might be angry at Angela for attacking your… that spot."

That spot? Oh right! She did aimed at that place! I forgot about that!

"I have something important to do that day. What happened here?"

Then I asked Kayla about the disturbance in classroom where everyone is surrounding Angela.

"Well, Angela's evaluation during the spar was amazing. Then everyone wanted to get to know her better. Most of them are girls though. The boys were too afraid because of what happened to you. Although there were some who's extremely persistent."

"Look! Here comes the coward! Haha!"

Someone interrupted us. Seems like it was the persistent guy. Now he's looking for attention by making fun of me?

"Look at the man who ran away with his tail between his legs because of a small fire! It was just a sparring and he ran away! What a coward!"

Is he an idiot? There's no way you could gain anyone's affection if you do it like this. You're gonna end up labelled as bully by the others.

Well, I don't care how he's being viewed by the others. In front of everyone, I took out a matchstick and lit it. As the flame sparked, I bring it closer to the guy's crotch.

"What are you doing?!" he said while slapping my hand away.

"OOOH!! You're also afraid of fire on your crotch! You're also a coward like me! We're coward brothers!"

Oh, look at his face! He's expression keep changing from shock, to anger, and then embarrassment. What a funny faces he makes.

"Dude, you need to have a proper definition of being a coward. Being afraid of fire on your crotch is called common sense. Next time you're trying to gain attention, don't do it like this. Or at least you need to have a proper definition of what being a coward mean. Don't mistake it with common sense like you did just now, okay?"

Ignoring everyone's laughter at my comment, I walked to Angela who's also smiling.

"Come with me. I have something to tell to you and Kayla."

She looks surprised, but she still followed me outside the classroom.

Now the three of us were at the hallway while other people would look at us curiously. None of them know that we are a party.

"What do you want to tell us?"

It was Angela who asked first. She didn't even apologize for what she did during the spar. Sigh… I'll just let it go this one time.

"I'm leaving. Probably for a few months. I'd like if it's only for a day, but the chance is almost zero for it to happen."

"What's so important that you need to leave?"

"I need to replace a monster. I don't know what kind of monster is it, nor do I know where I could replace it. That's why I'm leaving."

"Was it necessary to go that far just to kill one monster?"

"Yes. So if you want to do hunter mission, you can go on your own. Or just the two of you. Or maybe ask someone to join your party."

"What about school? I thought you're planning to go to higher education?"

"That's my plan. I already asked the teacher when the important even is so I will go back at that time even if I didn't replace what I'm looking for."

Then the two discussed something in whisper. Though I can hear them clearly, I let them be until they sort out what they want to ask. It's obviously them trying to follow me.

"Can we go with you?"

"If you don't mind staying with me. It will be a long journey so we need to camp outside. How about it?"

"…let us discuss it for a while. When will you leave?"

"Right now if I'm alone. If you're coming, then it will be tomorrow after you've prepared yourselves. I want to finish this as fast as possible."

Then the two discussed what their next actions would be. I guess it was Kayla who's being worried about staying with me. Especially considering how we encounter her at that time. She must be wary of all men and I was included even if I'm the man who's closest to her.

"We'll go with you. You're going to get stronger, right? We won't let you get stronger alone. We also want to be strong!"

"That's right! You've taught us a lot, but that's not everything, right? You only taught us magic and about the jobs as hunters. Since we met you, we grow much stronger than others the same age. We're a party, remember?"

"Well, I just need your answer to be yes or no. But okay. I accept your explanations."

I guess it's settled. Then let's decide where and when we will leave. But before that, Angela said something to me.

"By the way, about the sparring. I'm sincerely apologize for attacking you like that. I'm truly sorry."

"It's fine as long as you won't do it to me again. If you're targeting someone else, please do so. Aiming at men's crotch with a fireball is a much more effective way to intimidate your enemies than using your strongest magic just to show off. All men are weak down there. Remember that when you're up against men next time."

That's another lesson I taught them. Angela laughed a bit after I accepted her apologize. While Kayla took out a notebook out of nowhere and write it down. Scary…

Kayla would write down what I said, especially when it's about anti-person battle against men. How to escape, when to escape, how to intimidate your enemies, their weak points, and what I said just now. Whatever it is inside that notebook, it must be terrifying, although all of that is learned from me, it's still scary. She's one of the people that I would never want to be enemy with.

"By the way since its still morning, we can go back home now and gather after lunch. We can leave today."

The two already discussed when to leave, huh?

After giving them detail of what necessary to bring on a journey, I let them know where to meet.

"Then let's meet at Red Tail. That's where I live in since two days ago."

"Red Tail? I've never heard an inn named red tail before."

"It's not an inn. It's a brothel… why are you kicking my shin."

"Because you just asked two young girl to meet you at a brothel! Why are you living there?"

"The owner is kind enough to lend me a room for free. Don't worry. Since its still morning, there's no customer there."

"You! Sigh… fine. We'll meet you there after we finished preparing."

We left the school without taking any lesson. As we left the school, we went our separate ways. Angela and Kayla went back home and I went to the brothel.

There's nothing much happening. We met at the brothel and leave after a while. Both girls are just surprised to received hospitality from a brothel. In fact Sophie ended up getting along really well with the two. It took a while until they finished chatting.

"Well, then. Since we're ready, let's go!"

Since they're finished chatting, and I've already said goodbye to Daniel and the others, we left. I let Ruby take care of Daniel's need. I hope when I return, he will be a normal kid.
