The Only Aura User In Magic World

Now, it's time to kidnap some children. Anyone who have seen me today, please don't try what I'm going to do. Although there's no one here who knows me when I disguised myself, please don't try it by any means. It's just a last resort that I need to do. Probably second to last resort since the last resort consist of murder or assassination.

With Victoria and her clones, I disguised myself. Fake beard, fake mustache, wig, fake physical appearances, wearing all black. No matter who saw me, they would think that I'm a suspicious person. There's also a caravan made of Blobbies that will be needed for my plan.

And this is a technique that I learned from Victoria. since I don't have to kill kids anymore, she gladly helped me find a solution in kidnapping the orphans right in the middle of the capital, which should have a high security. She said that it's popular in her world.

Why would a kidnapping technique be popular? Her world keeps getting scarier.

So, what I need to do is… oh? There are two orphans playing nearby. Both of them have explosive devices inside their mouth. Let's put what I learned into practice.

I pulled the Blobbycaravan that I made, and pretend to be a merchant. Then I approached the kids

"Excuse me, kids. Do you know the road to the hunter guild?" I asked politely.

"Old man, who are you?" One of the orphans is wary at me and protected the other kid.

"I'm just a merchant. I want to sell potions to the hunters. Do you know the way?"

"It's straight that road, and then go left, and right, and left again, and left again. I don't know where the guild is, but if you go there, there should be someone who knows where it is. You can ask them instead." The kid said.

Seems like he's smart enough to trick a suspicious person who approaches him. Well, that's not really considered as a trick. He just doesn't know where the guild is, and the location he pointed is quite crowded with people walking around. He probably just doesn't want me to stay around them for any longer. I guess I can't ask direction from them anymore.

"Thank you, kid. Here's some candies for you and your brother." This is the trick that I learned. Offering kids with candies.

"Oh! Candies!" The other kid shouted and running toward me to grab the candy.

"Wait! That candy is suspicious!" The kid who gave me directions tried to stop him.

"It's okay! I know that I look suspicious, so I will eat one. I have five in my pocket, so one will be for me, and you two will receive two each. Here. The candies are not dangerous."

Since that kid is smart, I put one candy into my mouth to prove to him that it's not drugged. The kid then believed that the candies are not drugged, and both of them happily took two each.

"Hohohoh, you brothers seem happy with those candies!" I said while pretending to laugh.

"We're not brothers. We just grow up in the same orphanage." The smart kid said.

"Orphanage? Then there should be more kids, right? How about I give more candies for you to share with other kids?"

"Really? Thank you, old man!"

The smart kid caught the bait!

"They are inside the caravan. You can get in and take as many as you want." I said.

Then the two kids happily entered my caravan. But as soon as both of them entered, I closed the door, and use air magic to produce sleeping gas inside the caravan. I can see the kids are screaming inside, but I blocked the voice with Air Barrier.

They soon fall asleep, while no one noticed it. some passerby just looked at us curiously, but decided to ignore us when the kids seem happy with me.

So, the plan is simple. I will entice the kids with candies, ask them to get inside the caravan, and put them to sleep.

Damn! For me to do this, I'm so evil! But it's all for the greater good. If they don't know that they unknowingly joined the cult, if they are smart enough, they will regret it in the future. But what if they are evil from young? Like Celestine?

…let's not think about it. At least Celestine has weakness with children.

"So, how is it? Kidnapping children? Do you feel guilty?" Victoria asked.

"A little. But it's all for the greater good. Rather, I'm more curious why this method was popular. No, wait! I don't want to hear the reason." I said.

"Yeah… even with all kind of advanced technologies, humans are just being… human." Victoria said.

"Spare me from any moral lesson. I just kidnapped some children and I need to get some more." I said.

"How many will you get?"

"Russell said that he can hypnotize about ten people in one day. That's his limit. So, I will stop around that number. The orphanage these kids are from, there are about five children who have explosive devices. And to not make it suspicious to the cult, I will go grab some totally innocent children who don't even know anything. I will be the evilest human being today. And the next few days. Let's grab some more children. This method you taught me is easy to use."

I will keep using this method to kidnap children.

…I keep saying that I will kidnap children. But that's not our goal. Let's change it. I will protect these children from the clutch of the Evil God Cult! That does sound better.

I used portal inside the caravan, and transported the children to Russell's village. There, he will perform hypnotism. No, healing. He will perform healing ritual to cleanse their minds.

Let's go get the next targets. Other children from the same orphanage. They are playing in other location.

I did the same thing to those children, and in just three hours, I already got all five of the children with explosive device, and another four innocent kids. The innocent kids will sleep until I return them back, while those who have explosive devices will be healed by Russell, and got their HGBs taken from them.

Russell will ask the kids while they are hypnotized about how they got those things, and brainwash them to made them think that taking anything from strangers is bad. Yeah, they shouldn't even receive any candies from me either. Sorry, kids.

"How is it?"

I asked Russell after he has 'healed' them all. I used portal to get here along with the last batch of the children.

"It should work. I also made it so they will think that the people who gave them the thing inside their mouth are bad guys and must be avoided." Russell said.

"Then, can I return them now?"

"Yes. But about those bad guys… have you told Henry?"

"I have done that before I do this shit. I will take care of them now. But I don't know if every one of them will be killed. That's why I'm glad if your hypnotism work. If they see anyone of the bad guys who I hadn't killed, they will escape. If I see their react like that, that mean another target for me to kill." I said.

"…so merciless. But I guess that's fine. Whoever decided to play with the lives of children, should die. Good luck."

"Yeah. I'll be back tomorrow with other kids."

I returned the kids back to the capital with portals. I just made them staying asleep in a park.

As for me, I waited until someone finds the kids. With Spot around my waist, I can stay invisible. Though I don't think it will work for expert level mage. But other than the princess, I don't think there are other expert level mages here. At least at the moment. If there are any, they must be good actors like the princess.

Someone found the orphans, and woke them up. When they were asked what happened, they just answered that they were sleepy while playing. Seems like Russell's hypnotism can alter their memories.

Now that they have gone, I will go find some bad guys to kill. They don't have explosive devices in their mouth, so I don't know if I can kill them all. I already forgot their faces.

But I can't do that right away as a ghost suddenly appear in front of me.

"Roy, go to Henry's chamber right now. And call Celestine once you're there." Sonia said with angry face.

"…did you tell Celestine?"

"Henry told me to call you, I asked. He answered. Julia was there too. Then before I came here, I told Celestine. Now you have to feel the wrath of two expert level mages. Three if Veronica decided to join. She was there when I told Celestine." Sonia said.

…seems like I will die today.

"Roy! Spot and I will mark the bad guys with Blobbies. You just need to find them and kill them later. At least I have better memory in remembering people's faces than you. And if I find someone among them who walk alone, I will kill them myself or have Spot devour them." Victoria said.

"Okay! I am good at devouring people!" Spot said. Since Victoria was an Aura user in the past, Spot also trusted her somewhat.

The two monsters leave me alone before I agree to that.. Seems like I will receive the punishment alone.
