The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 103: Kayla’s Plan

This happened soon after Roy left the group. Victoria went to the east and after a while, she encountered several enemies. Seven of them to be exact.

Victoria just charged at them head-on. Different from Roy that mainly used sneak attack and ambush, Victoria choose to fight head-on against the enemies.

It was mostly thanks to her being a black slime that she is invulnerable toward any kind of attack. Whether it’s magic or physical attack, she can’t be damaged at all.

That was why she dare to be so bold in battle.

The only flaw she has is that she hasn’t been able to completely master her own body. Although she makes her own weight increased on each of her attack to make a stronger and more powerful attack, the moment after the attack and reducing the weight back to normal again is too slow.

She’s doing fine when Roy was wielding her as weapon. As his summon, she has some connection with him and she will adjust her body to transform into what in Roy’s mind. Even the weight.

But the connection only happened when she’s near Roy. And she can’t use that connection for telepathic communication.

.....

Although she has been practicing a lot by defeating monsters, she still can’t get used to her new body.

No matter how useful her ability as shapeshifter is, she can only fight as how she remembered it in her past human life. Although she’s smart and has a really wild imagination, she’s not a quick thinker like Roy. That’s why the only way for her to fight is by fighting like she did in the past, back when she hasn’t gained both magic and Aura.

Even though she no longer has Aura, her sword technique is much better than Roy. So for her to defeat several humans enemies is much easier than defeating monsters.

Facing against seven opponents, the only problem she could have is if they choose to escape. So, once she found them, she just charged right through them, killing some enemies while getting past them to their back so they won’t have a chance to escape.

She managed to kill three people just like that.

“What? Who are you?!”

“It’s not time for questions! Just kill her already!”

Leaving only four people behind, two on the right and another two on the left. All four of them casted their magic to attack Victoria.

Their attacks raised the dust around them making even themselves unable to see anything. Victoria used that chance to attack all four of them.

Although she can’t see as well, she can deduce where the enemies are from where the magic came from. She moves to her left and slashed two enemies, then she moves to the right and stabbed one enemy. Leaving only one man alive.

“Don’t kill me! Please, I beg you!”

“You’re here to kill my friends so it’s no problem if I kill you, right?”

With that, she swung her sword and decapitate her enemy’s head from his body.

Although she’s a woman who came from a modern world, she’s already accustomed to killing in this world. The world she’s reincarnated into is not a kind world, with the rule of survival of the fittest. And so, she adapted to the common sense of this world after a few years growing up in this world in her childhood.

After killing all seven enemies, she started to move to the center area. Since she has already advanced ahead, the other girls still hasn’t fought any enemies. If Victoria can reduce the enemies here, the burden on the girls will be lighter.

But just as soon as she ran, Sonia appears.

“What’s wrong?”

“Roy has gained some new information. They have two waves of attacks. The first one is right now, with thirty people, and Roy has defeated five of them. The second wave is in an hour if the first wave hasn’t returned by then. And they have about seventy people left for the second wave. He wants me to relay a message to you to make sure that no enemies can escape. All of them has to be killed. If even one person escape, the second wave will come sooner.”

“Understand. Inform the others.”

“Okay.”

Since the both of them have knew each other for a long time, they already have a good understanding of each other. They don’t need to say more than necessary during an emergency. So after relaying a message to Victoria, Sonia left right away.

Roy has defeated five and Victoria has defeated seven. Which means there are still eighteen enemies left.

Victoria choose to stay behind the enemy and killed them from behind while they are fighting with Kayla’s group.

She let them fight Kayla’s group first so they will let their guards down for attacks from behind and Victoria can kill them.

In the end, Kayla and Sophie together managed to kill four enemies, Wendy able to kill six enemies, and the rest are killed by Victoria. Which makes her kill count to fifteen.

The eight enemies are killed by her as she judged them to be dangerous when they were about to cast magic to kill the girls. So when they were preparing their magic, Victoria appears and killed them.

Wendy was surprised to see that Kayla and Sophie able to kill four. They both able to kill the least number of enemy, but knowing that they are still beginner level, and most of the enemies are intermediate level, Wendy was so surprised.

They only got slight injuries, and Kayla can easily heal them.

“Are you sure you are still beginner level mages?” Wendy asked Kayla and Sophie.

“Yes. It was all thanks to Roy’s teaching and also Victoria and Sonia’s knowledge of magic from the past.” Sophie answered.

“Just who is Roy, really?”

“He’s a clown. An extremely good one. If you watched his performance in the circus, you will know it too,” said Kayla.

“I know that. I also watched the circus during Clarence’s performance. Roy told me that he’s Clarence. But that doesn’t answer my questions!”

“You will know. Maybe after this is over, he will tell you his secret. Or maybe just one of his many secrets,” replied Kayla confidently.

“Can he really be trusted so much just by him telling you his secrets?” asked Wendy.

“Well, if he tells you his secret, you will have no choice but to trust him.”

“I don’t think that will happen. He’s my student, but to trust him just after sharing his secret, I don’t think I can trust him that easily. By the way, I haven’t seen Victoria for a while. Where is she?”

Wendy looked around and didn’t see Victoria since the battle here is over.

“Roy probably has summoned her,” Sophie answered Wendy’s question.

“...I forgot that she’s a monster.”

Soon after, the door of the shack is opened and Angela come out of it.

“I’ve finished breaking through! Now is my time to shine! Tell me what happened!”

Sophie summarized what happened about the battle, and where Roy is currently.

Meanwhile, Sonia who just see the good news that Angela has broken through to Intermediate level on her ice element, suddenly got called by Roy.

She reappears soon to tell new information from him.

“Wendy, do you know a woman named Candy?”

“Hmm? What is it?”

“These fake bandits captured her and put her in a cage. Later, she will cooperate with Roy to make ruckus from behind the enemy lines.”

“She will? That’s great! She’s pretty strong herself so it’s great to have her to join!”

Wendy is happy to hear that they have a reinforcement from someone she knows.

“Well, if she’s so strong, why was she captured?” teased Angela.

“That just means the enemies is much stronger than her. Sonia, tell us everything you heard from Roy.”

Kayla asked Sonia to tell everything.

Sonia informed them about how they are fake bandits who are actually part of the cult. Although they are part of the cult, their loyalty is just toward a woman in the cult. Probably one of their higher-ups.

“What cult? What are you talking about?” Wendy is confused with the information she got.

“Roy said that he will explain it to both you and Candy after this is over. Let’s hope you all can stay alive when it’s over,” said Sonia.

While Wendy is confused, Kayla is already thinking of a plan for their next moves.

“I have a plan. Since we still have enough time before they started moving, let’s do it right now. It will help us kill everyone even if their numbers bigger than us.”

“What is your plan?” Angela asked.

“This is a cliff with nowhere to escape other than falling from it since they got us surrounded. Let’s dig a hole and make it seems as if we’re escaping to below the cliff. But actually, the hole is just a trap toward dead end. And we will make some hollow area below that fake escape path that we will cover, and we will return to the surface from there while covering the hole.”

“I see! Then we will make them got caved in once they entered just like Ellen’s party!” Sophie understood Kayla’s plan.

“I don’t think all of them will enter the hole. Some of them should be entering the shack or looking from the edge of the cliff. But with Ms. Wendy’s powerful magic, she can attack that area and makes everyone fall to their death.”

“I understand. I can fly by using wind magic since I’m advanced level in both wind and fire element so I will fly above the cliff and use powerful fire magic to destroy the cliff! That’s a sound plan! But what if there are some enemies that doesn’t dare to get close to the cliff? And where will you hide?”

Wendy asked where the others will hide while she’s flying.

“We can dig another hole away from the cliff. That will be our hiding spot. As for the rest of the enemies, Roy and your friend can take care of that.”

“What if they accidentally attacked your hiding spot?” Wendy asked Kayla again.

“If it’s Roy, he will get here first and protect our location as soon as he arrived. We will be fine. We still have time so let’s start digging, Angela.”

Kayla stood up and prepared to dig a hole.

“Alright! I have just breakthrough Intermediate level and the first thing I do is digging a hole? This group is weird as usual.”

And so, Kayla and the others prepared their plan.

Since they don’t need to be careful of burying people under them, both Kayla and Angela used their digging ability to the fullest from the start. The fake escape path needed to be long enough to convince the enemies.

Wendy is looking for a good hiding spot while flying. Sophie and Sonia is on guard duty.

.....

This is why Sonia can’t answer Roy’s call until their preparation is over.
