The Only Aura User In Magic World
Chapter 46 - Sunken Ship

I sunbathe as I waited for Victoria to surface. Since her time is limited, she should come out before her time is up. And if she's able to replace some treasures, she would inform me where to replace it and also the danger in the area.

Maybe she found where I can harvest water type magic stone. It's a stone used as resources for mage to improve their level. One type of magic stone can be used for any type of magic elements, but they are most useful when they are used to improve magic level of the same element.

But there are few exceptions. Like water magic stones. They can be used by ice element mage. It's not as well as how water element mage tries to use them, but still better than any other elements. It's because of compatibility. Since ice is made of water.

But what about air? If boiled, water turned into gas. So why can't I use water magic stones well? I don't know the exact answer, but my guess is that when water vaporize, they only changed into one type of air. Air element mage, can change the air into any kind of composition, but gas made of boiled water is only one type. So I guess that's why it's slow for me to use water magic stone to increase my level.

Maybe there are air element magic stone, but no one ever bother to try to replace it. Since most air element mage just gave up when they awaken to this element. I also has no interest in it back then because I only had summoning element in my previous life. Even if I did have air element back then, if Victoria refused to talk to me, the result is still the same.

It was truly lucky for me to be able to use Aura. Because of that, Victoria decided to speak to me in this life.

But how come a black slime has the ability to bring me back to the past? What kind of monster is Blobby? Even Victoria doesn't know much. She's just somehow ended up as a consciousness inside the black slime after she died. Maybe I can replace the answer if I can go to the Monsters World. But that's still in the future. I'm still haven't improved my summoning element yet. Then after I reached Intermediate level, I will go to Monsters World to get myself a new summon. Maybe I can learn more about Blobby over there.

As I thinking about many stuffs, Victoria returned with some magic stones.

"I'm back. I found where we can harvest many of these."

"Really? Cool! Did you see any sunken ship?"

"Yes. It's a bit away so if I go there, I won't make it in time to tell you. I also discover a new weapon you can use underwater."

"What is it?"

"A harpoon rifle! I'll transform into a rifle and you will compress air inside the tube. Then as you use your magic, the harpoon will shoot out and pierce your target. And it also use less energy so you can preserve your stamina."

"That's cool. So it's like Air Cannon but underwater. And I also need to make a harpoon."

"No. as long as the harpoon and the rifle is connected, I can be both the rifle and the harpoon. Then after you shot it, you just need to transform me back so you don't need to retrieve the harpoon."

"Awesome."

It's convenience. And I can preserve my stamina as well since it means I don't need to do the 'swim through the enemy's body along with my spear' tactic.

Speaking about spear, I left my self-repair spear at the inn. I need to remember to carry it always with me. Even if I have Blobby/Victoria around.

"And with similar concept, I can transform into a grappling hook! Now you don't need me to be your armguard. I can be a grappling hook that can be attached on your arm. Since it's me, you can use it as armguard as well."

"Grappling hook?"

"You can shoot some kind of hook to the rooftop and you can easily climb it."

"I don't need that. I can jump to the rooftop easily."

"Shut up and just be Rodriguez!"

"Who the hell is Rodriguez?!"

Did she just bring another of her 'only in her original world' invention?

"Just know that he's a badass."

"Okay. I'm a badass. Cool."

"I still have a while until my time is up. Let's train the grappling hook first!"

"Was it necessary?"

"It is for my heart! Do you wanna know what kind of things I want to do in this world after I reincarnated but I can't? This is just one of them. Just let me be happy!"

"Okay! Okay!"

And so, I was being forced to practice this grappling hook. It was awesome! There is a small forest in this deserted island and I practiced there.

I shot the hook to the branch and I can swung around. It is fun. No wonder Victoria want to do it.

"Hey! Don't forget to yell 'AAAAA' when you're swinging!"

"Why?"

"Just do it!"

I did as she said. Somehow, I felt better when I yelled during swinging rather than keeping my mouth shut. I asked Victoria why and she said that it's common sense in her world.

Did people in her world travel by swinging on trees?

"Haa… I had a lot of fun…"

"So it's fun for you, huh? Then let's dive and go to where you located the sunken ship is. There might be treasures inside."

A sunken ship that carried a lot of cargo… it's a treasure for me. Especially if the ship carried precious stuffs. Materials, magic stones, or maybe even artifacts. I will then let Sam sold them. She could be my middleman. Or woman.

Thus we dive into the sea again and went to the place Victoria saw the ship is. As for what she brought before, we left it on the island. I will retrieve it later when I finished.

Then we found the ship Victoria told me. From the look of it, it should have been sunk for more than a hundred year. Maybe I could get expensive valuables here.

Also, since it has been about a hundred year, the ship is already became a new habitat for fishes and other sea creatures. But only the small fishes. Somehow, I never see any monsters in this area. Maybe because the big fish already eaten by the bigger fish. And the bigger fish choose to replace somewhere else big fish gather instead of eating small fishes.

If that's true, then I'm lucky. That means I don't need to fight on my first day underwater treasure hunting.

As soon as we enter the ship, Victoria has changed back into a black blob. Looks like her time is up. I made Blobby into a grappling hook on my arm like Victoria want to. Now I can be as badass as Rodriguez… if she said the truth.

The fishes around here are beautiful. If I have my own house, I will bring them back home and put them in a big glass tank. I heard that some nobility has similar hobby as well. They put fishes inside a glass tank called aquarium or something and show them off to the guest. For me, I think I'll just show them off to my girlfriend… or girlfriends.

Kayla is already my girlfriend and I'm just waiting for Sophie to confess. Maybe she already fall out of love since her debt is cleared? But I still have my hope in Lina.

There are many barrels and boxes that has already broken. Some of them are empty. I think what's inside is some type of foods. Maybe spices. That's why they have been eaten and gone. I'll just look for jewelries.

I found some chests in another room. They must be valuables since they were put inside a chest. The chests are pretty powerful and able to endure being underwater for so long. I bet even the chest is expensive. But I can't bring this back so regretfully, I smashed the chest with my Aura covered fist and loot what's inside.

It's gold! HAHAHA! I'm glad to choose to do this! If I don't have air element, I won't even think about going underwater! Now I can become rich!

Should I just sell them on my own?

No. I have many things I want to do. I'll just keep my words and let Sam do her part. 50:50 is a good deal if I get this much every time I went diving.

There are many chests in the ship but it's impossible to bring them to the city without alerting other. I have no other choice but to just bring the content of just one chest. That should be enough to buy a house in Cassau. I'll ask Sam to buy a house when she moved here with money from this replaceing. If they're not enough, I can just return here anytime I want.

And when I already loot everything in this ship, I can just look for another sunken ship. Maybe I should build a clan in the future.

I bring everything I could carry to the island I left the magic stones is. Then I put them all in my Blobbybag to not alert other people and return back to the inn in Cassau.

Since I have finished my business here, I'll just go back to Melk tomorrow. As for souvenirs, I can give them some of the jewelries I found. They should be happy.
