Chapter 575: I Know My Weaknesses Better Now
“RRRAAAAAAARRGHH!!!”
I swung down Victosword toward my last opponent as I shouted. The last opponent which allow me to face Timmy in a dead or alive situation.
The opponent is not a master level mage who was also an Aura user. But he is the strongest Aura user who has reached the closest stage to Aura Master.
While his magic was a lightning element which only reached advanced level, his use of Aura, strength, speed, technique, and experience, were all surpassed me and anyone I have fought. But that’s what makes it worth it to fight him.
After defeating the Bearded Baldy, I faced the master level mages one by one. And because I have gotten closer to the stage of Aura Master, I could defeat them. Although it wasn’t easy.
Each fight after defeating Bearded Baldy, I spent at least twenty hours just to defeat one opponent. Though the time decreased for the second, third, and fourth master level mages because I have gotten used to fighting Aura user, the fifth master level mage was too strong that I need two whole days to defeat him.
After that, I fought two other Aura users who were stronger than those master level mages. No wonder Timmy used this line up.
.....
And now, I’m facing the last opponent. He is much stronger than any other ancient Aura users.
But finally, after hours since the battle start, I finally managed to kill him. With a downward slash of Victosword, I slashed through his sword which he used to block it, and split him in two.
Although the sword he used was Blobbies from Victoria, I didn’t cheat by forcefully transforming the Blobbies. I let those Blobbies be freely used by the ancient Aura users and fight normally since it’s all for the sake of my training.
I could just cheat and make them all lose their control of their weapons. But I won’t get stronger just by doing that.
And more importantly, I don’t think Timmy would be happy if I did just that.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd so, the end of the test has come. But the real thing will start soon.
“Congratulations. You have defeated your opponent,” Timmy congratulated me.
“Thank you. And that’s about the 200th time I heard that. But it feels good to hear that since that means my match is over,” I said.
“Yeah. But do you really need to fight that way?” Timmy asked me.
What he meant was the way I fought. The “Stall for time as much as possible while reserving my stamina, and make the opponent waste their stamina first” strategy. Get them tired before killing them.
Since the test started, they were no longer normal zombie. Although the inside of their body is different than human’s, they can still get tired and hurt. But that’s only after the test started.
So, when I fought difficult opponent, I would run away. And the game of tag begun again. Though I’m not ‘It’ since I was the one being chased all the time. Unlike the time with Shadow.
Since the testing ground was not built into a maze anymore, I build a maze by myself. Utilizing around twenty thousand Blobbies to create walls for the maze.
Although the walls could be destroyed easily, I can just transform more Blobbies. And I used that chance to rest, recover my stamina, and think of a plan to fight.
Now that I have fought a lot of Aura users, I can tell my own weaknesses. Even the weakness I had for a long time was felt greatly.
I have too many weaknesses in fact. And that’s why I need to waste a long time to fight.
Here’s a list of my weaknesses.
First, I was weaker in strength than many Aura users. Although I could be the strongest in this world, against Aura users, I am one of the weakest. Though since my opponent will be mages and probably not Aura users, I don’t think it would be much trouble. But in this test, it was an annoying weakness.
Second, although I’m quite proud with my speed, I’m still slower than most Aura users. And master level wind mages were faster than me. If the Evil God is a wind mage, I don’t think I would be able to catch him if he escapes.
Third, I tend to overthink. Bearded Baldy even warned me about it during our match.
Combined with my fourth weakness, it was terrible. It’s that I’m not that smart.
So, not only I spent a lot of time thinking. But the result of that thinking and planning were not good enough for the battle most of the time.
Lastly, even though I’m not smart enough, I can’t just move my body without thinking like Bearded Baldy. There were times that I can do that, but I can’t trust my own body somehow to do it all the time. Though that part of me was somehow fixed because of the test, it’s not perfect.
All of those weaknesses combined, along with some that I don’t want to say or that I don’t know yet, makes me one terrible fighter! And I’m not happy about it.
Good thing my enemy will only be mages. But if there’s an Aura user hiding among the cult, that would be bad. Very very bad news.
What if it’s actually the Evil God himself? He might even be stronger than Timmy. Not that I know Timmy’s real strength. He hadn’t showed me his full strength. The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novelenglish.net . ꜰirᴇ
Though why would an Aura user hate other Aura users so much?
“So, when do you think you will fight?” Timmy asked me.
“When I’m ready. Probably in a few days. I’m gonna ask you again if you really have no intention of helping me? The world is about to be destroyed, you know?” I asked Timmy again if he wants to join us. With him, our power will increase a lot.
“No. I have no interest in the world being destroyed or not. Even if you came from the future, I don’t care,” Timmy said.
“Sigh... You should have just help us. It will be easier for me that way.”
“But then you won’t be motivated. If I help you, or I made the test to be scheduled after you destroy the cult, you won’t have any motivation since that means you don’t have any reason to grow stronger anymore. If you’re someone who seeks strength like most Aura users who came here, I might have different idea about helping you. But you are not a normal Aura user. You are only motivated because you have a goal. You’re the one with the most difficult personality here,” Timmy said.
“I agree. He’s somewhat disappointing,” Victoria agreed with Timmy.
“...Let’s not talk about me right now,” I said as I want to leave this topic as soon as possible.
I was just thinking about my own weaknesses, and then these two started telling me that I’m disappointing. I’m so sad.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Anyway, about the location of the Evil God. Can you tell me why you can’t tell of their location? Maybe that could be our clues to finding them. At least you can help us this much, right?” I asked.
“Well, that’s fine. There are several reasons. The main reason is obviously because I don’t know who he is. And you also don’t really know about him, right? You just know that he’s exist. And there’s nothing else beyond that,” Timmy explained.
Now that I think about it, it’s stupid of me to ask him why he couldn’t tell where the Evil God is. It’s like asking him if he knew where Bob is, but he doesn’t even know who the hell is Bob. And in fact, I don’t even know any Bob.
“Other than that, there are several other reasons. Like he’s not touching the ground. Since the element I’m best at is earth element, it’s useless if the person in question isn’t touching the ground. Even though I don’t know where that Evil God is, I can still at least tell any places that look suspicious. Though I didn’t sense any suspicious location. But if he doesn’t even touch the ground, I will never know,” Timmy explained.
Timmy has been stuck in this place for much longer than other ancient Aura users. Even if it looks suspicious for us, he won’t know because the culture is totally different. And he may think that those weird things actually normal. Or he couldn’t tell at all, so he decided to ignore them all.
What if there’s a place in the sky like the Angel’s Sanctuary? A place that float with the clouds. Timmy will not be able to sense that place since it’s not touching the ground.
“If that Evil God’s elements are something that allow him to transport to another location like your summoning, he can travel to another world like you, right?” Timmy asked.
He’s right. But I don’t think it’s something like summoning element. Because if it is, that Evil God should have gone to the Monsters World already. Or at least he would have send someone there instead of using what Victoria called rocket made by the Professor.
Which mean he has something that allow him to move to another location that Timmy couldn’t sense, or something that can make him stay in the air for a long time.
Finding him will be extremely difficult. Though I expected it, it’s still annoying.
“Then, last question for the day. How can I beat you?” I asked Timmy shamelessly.
“...Think about it yourself. That’s what you always do after all. Good luck,” Timmy said before he disappeared into the room he was in and locked the door from the inside.
I guess that was also to be expected. Well, for now I need to get some rest, and prepare everything before going.
“For my last battle, I don’t want you to come to watch. But I will bring some cameras and install them here before fighting,” I said to Kayla and the others who were watching me fighting up till now.
There won’t be any audience anymore. Only Timmy, me, and my monsters.
...I hope he won’t kill me so quickly. Rather, I hope he won’t kill me at all.
