The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 616: Rescuing Idiots Only to Let Them Die

I am the armored horse-riding sniper. The greatest marksman in the world. At least at the moment. I think Sara can surpass me. But at least I am now the greatest since Sara’s sniping skill is still limited by her rifle.

I think Marie is trying to make a rifle for Sara to use. Which should be at least as good as Victoria when she is transformed into a rifle. But it will take time until it’s completed. That’s why I’m still the greatest.

Using Blobby as rifle or her old rifle, Sara can’t use her full power to compress air inside of them since the durability of those rifles are not strong enough and will easily break if Sara used too much power.

Anyway, I’m still in the forest sniping succubus. There are still around thirty of them left. But I can only shoot one succubus around every one minute. So it will take about thirty minutes until I can kill them all.

The succubus have spread all over the place and went into hiding. Behind a tree or behind a rock. Which makes things harder for me since I need to keep moving.

I can just shoot through the rocks or trees. But I didn’t expect the succubus to have quick reflexes. Once the bullet hit the rock where a succubus is hiding, she can still move by reflex a little so my shot won’t hit her vital or even miss. And I need to take another shot to kill her before she went to hide in another location.

Some of the succubus have successfully took the men they kept as hostages. Which makes things harder for me. Except for the time when some of the men who noticed that the succubus were being shot down shouted something. I think they were those who haven’t been charmed completely by the succubus. They would shout out loud and say to kill them as well. The source of this content is novelenglish.net . Firᴇ

.....

And I have no problem killing those who wanted to die. The problem was those who have been completely charmed.

I can kill them as well. But if I kill everyone, the rumor about two living armors saving people won’t be spread. And if I just kill everyone except for a few people whom I let live, I will be thought as the bad guy who won’t think twice to kill people. And I will be the bad guy if the rumors are spread.

That’s why I only kill the men who said that they want to die. For those who didn’t say that, I’ll keep them alive for a while longer unless they are truly in the way of me killing all the succubus.

“An armored horse-riding sniper. Those profession doesn’t really match with each other,” Victoria said to what I claimed myself to be.

“Which one? Armored sniper, or horse-riding sniper?” I asked back.

“All of them. Sniper are usually stay in one place for a long time. But you’re riding a horse. And you’re wearing armor which is something that vanguard use. Not a sniper who shoot from distance,” Victoria said.

“I wonder why there are no armored sniper in your world. That’s weird, isn’t it? It’s safer to wear armor while in sniping position,” I said.

“That’s just you. Wearing a heavy armor and stay in one spot for a long time will be too exhausting for normal sniper. They usually only wear a helmet and some body protection which only protect their upper body. Not a full body armor,” Victoria explained.

Hmm... no matter how much she explained, I can never imagine how weird her world is. Sniping in full armor is much safer, right?

Well, there are things that we can do in this world and things that can’t be done in her world. The more I heard about her world, the wilder my imagination will be. And it’s not like I will be able to go to her world anyway.

“Oh, there’s one succubus chasing after us. She might be the fastest one among all the succubus here since she can tell where we are. Although Ray hasn’t used his full speed, she’s fast enough to follow us,” I said as I aimed my sniper rifle toward the succubus chasing after us.

When I shot the bullet, the succubus quickly dodged my bullet. She is much better than other succubus. I should have killed her before other succubus. Though she looks just like any other succubus so I can’t tell if she’s strong.

“Ray, keep our distance from her. I don’t want to get charmed by her,” I said to Ray as Ray increases his speed.

But the wider the distance between us, the easier it is for the succubus to dodge my bullet. Though I won’t try to get closer to her. I don’t know at what range she can use her charm.

“Roy, I will handle her. I guess we can still act as two living armors here,” Victoria said as she turned from a rifle into a moving armor.

“I guess that’s a plan. Then, I’ll leave her to you,” I said.

“I will help you kill the other succubus after I take care of her,” Victoria said.

I jumped off of Ray’s back as Victoria and Ray is going to the chasing succubus. Now, I only have Blobbies to turn into a rifle. But this should be enough.

I keep moving and shooting target. This is harder since I have to run on my own instead of letting Ray do it. But it’s not a problem as long as I keep in the distance where their charm magic won’t affect me.

Succubus are really a bad match with any men. Though I don’t know if their charm magic can affect Hill or not. But they are still bad match with men.

Did Timmy kill succubus to get charm magic? I don’t think that’s the case.

Timmy’s ability is to charm women. And if I’m not wrong, the male equivalent of succubus are called incubus. They must be the one Timmy killed to get his Aura ability.

And that means, no matter what, I have to make sure that my girls won’t ever meet incubus. I don’t want them to get charmed.

As I started thinking weird thoughts, the succubus that Victoria is fighting with has died. And she has started hunting the other succubus.

Finally, all of the succubus have died. And Victoria and Ray returned to me.

“What now, Roy?” Victoria asked while she’s still riding Ray.

“We’ll meet the survivor and release them. Some of them are still being tied. Though they seem like they will die soon if they were left alone. The succubus must have sucked a lot of life force from them,” I said.

“Then are you going to move them with portal?” Victoria asked.

“No. I’ll just leave them be with some food and knives. They can either get their health back and try to escape the forest, or they can choose to kill themselves if they think they have suffered so much and can’t take it anymore,” I said.

Although they were charmed, they should be able to remember that some of them who were not affected much by the charm magic chose death rather than surviving. Maybe some of them will choose to die. Though I don’t think it will be all of them.

Those who choose to survive will hopefully be able to escape from the forest. And they will spread the news that two living armors came and help them.

If those people are hunters from Melk who helped us in the stampede, they should know that a living armor helped killed the giant salamander back then. I hope they won’t greet us with hostility.

“Victoria, remember to not say anything. Living armor shouldn’t be able to speak,” I said to Victoria.

I brought Victoria and freed all of the men before gathering them in one location. Then I gave them some food enough for them to stay alive until they leave the forest and find a city or village. I also pointed at the knives on the ground. And I showed them a gesture of slicing my own throat. Which was meant to tell them that they can use those knives to kill themselves.

“...Is there any gesture that I can do to tell them that I meant for them to kill themselves with those knives and it wasn’t meant that they need to kill each other with those knives over food?” I asked Victoria after I witnessed the men killing each other.

What happened after I gathered them in one room is that those men grabbed the knives and use them to kill each other. Maybe because their lifeforce was sucked by the succubus, they were unable to use magic. That’s why they only swing those knives awkwardly.

Why do they think that it’s a survival game where the winner will receive food and can escape? Though since I’m acting as a living armor, I can’t talk.

I watched human stupidity at its best until there’s only one man remains. And after looking at me, he grabbed all the food I left. He ate some food and drink some water before he looked at me again and then run away from there.

“Is there no such things as sign language in this world? It would be great if there is. Their mind must have been broken so badly that they can’t think straight. Or they are just that stupid. What will you do with that man who escapes?” Victoria asked me.

“Leave him be. He will spread a rumor about two living armors who enjoy watching men kill each other for food. I’ll just ask Albert and other kings about it so they can send their agents to fix it,” I said.

Those agents will heard the rumor and dismiss it. Saying that they experience the same thing as that guy did. But instead of the knives for killing each other, they were used for if there are anyone who wanted to kill themselves because they can’t endure the hardship after suffering so much.

This is way outside my expectation. But at least there will be true rumors that the escaped man will spread. About two living armors who killed monsters. That’s what needed to bait the cult after all.

After this, there will be more activities for us two living armors. But today’s job is over. It’s time to return to be a clown.
