The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 459 – Mission Start

In the morning, Lina has prepared breakfast not just for me, but for Graham and Shelia as well whom I will bring with me on the raid.

"Good luck, Master," Lina said before I leave.

She has a sad expression as she doesn't want to have me leave. But this is important for me. It's a huge step for me to destroy the cult and have a peace of mind that I long for.

As for the others, they are all still resting. They might be called by me, so they need to save their energy as much as possible.

If there are many artificial master level mages, I will need to get the others to help me. That's why I gave everyone a Blobbymask to disguise themselves. Even I will wear one. I will wear the armor that cover my whole body by utilizing Victoria's ability.

As for Shelia and Graham, they don't really need a mask because they are monsters and they don't live in our world. Although they occasionally stay in our world, they are mainly living in Monsters World. That's why it should be fine.

Though for Shelia who often stays with me, she will be in her werewolf form from the start. This way, it's impossible for the cult to realize her usual appearance that she uses in our world.

After bidding my farewell to Lina, I opened a portal to where the spies are and looked around to see if we are being watched or not.

Hmm… there are no other people here than the agents. We are not being watched. That's good.

The place I'm in has been reconstructed for the acts of the agents. One male and one female. There's a small hut shabbily built, with the land next to it have crops started sprouting. This makes a perfect disguise so anyone who sees them will think that they are just a couple who is trying to live in the wild by building a shelter and farming.

"Any news?" I asked the couple.

"After that big group left to Consenza, there hasn't been any other movement. But the lab might be empty," the female agent said.

"Please be careful as we don't know if it's a trap or not," the male agent continued.

"I will. You two can go back and tell Albert that I'm here. Thanks for your hard work," I said as I opened a portal directly to the palace where Albert is waiting for them.

The two entered the portal, and I closed it when they are kneeling toward Albert, and the king himself is looking at me. We didn't exchange any word at all as I close the portal.

Now I'm all alone, I summoned Shelia and Graham by to me.

"You two ready?" I asked my two familiars.

"I am ready, Master," Graham said.

"I hope I get to have a good fight," Shelia said.

"I hope you win all the fight," I replied to Shelia's wish.

I have informed the two about the importance of this mission. And there's a chance that someone might even lose their life. Still, Shelia agreed to follow me. As for Graham, it takes some time to get him agree. But after the persuasion from the other angels, he decided to follow me for the job.

Well, if he doesn't agree, I can just force him to come anyway. But it's good that he ended up coming willingly.

"Alright. Shelia, transform into your wolf form so I can ride you," I said to Shelia.

"You're not going to run on your own?"

"It's best to save my energy as much as possible. As for you, your stamina is near infinite. It's fine, right?"

"Okay.  What about Graham?" Shelia asked.

"He can fly and follow us," I said.

At first, I thought it's fine if Shelia and I just run toward the lab. But now that I think about it, she's faster in her wolf form. Faster than me. This way, I can reach there sooner.

Why didn't I ask Spot to come with me when he has camouflage skill? It's because he has another important mission. Reconnaissance. He's going to watch the cult enter Consenza. Along with Sonia.

Those two, with their invisibility and camouflage, won't be detected easily. And even if someone does detect them, they are monsters. And since they are not contracted monsters from a summoner or a tamer, the cult won't notice that they are being watched. Though if the cult noticed them, they will think that the monsters are probably someone's familiar. That's why I told them that in case someone is getting closer, they need to pretend to be wild monsters.

If their lives are still in danger, Sonia can teleport somewhere safe, while Spot can fly as fast as possible to escape. Only master level mage can catch up with his speed, but Spot said that it's fine if he encounters one. He wants to fight them himself. I hope Spot will be safe if he ends up fighting someone.

"Alright. We can go straight to the lab. Tell me if you smell anything weird. Graham, you don't need to catch up to Shelia's speed. Just fly according to your own pace to the same direction. If I need you, I can summon you directly to my location. And it's best to create a shadow clone right away," I said.

"Do you want me to create a big one, small one, or the same size as me?" Graham asked.

"A big one. Running or flying behind us. That way, in case we encounter someone, they will think that we are being chased by that clone," I said.

"The way of a coward seems run deeper than I thought. Well, I'm fine with that," Graham said.

Graham thinks that saying my plan as the way of a coward is an insult. But for me, it's a praise. I am indeed a coward after all. As long as I'm not as stupid as the angel, it's all good.

We run toward the lab in one line. With me riding Shelia at the front, Graham slightly behind us, and his shadow clone is chasing after us. So far, there are no other people beside us. But it's just in case we encounter them on the way.

"Shelia, please don't talk at all in case we meet someone when you're in this form. I want them to think that I'm just riding a slightly bigger wolf. Only speak when you sensed something," I said.

"Woof!" Shelia replied.

"…you don't have to force yourself to bark."

"Woof-woof!"

Seems like she's not forcing herself. But barking is what a dog does, right? Not a wolf? Well, I will just say that she is a giant dog instead then.

We continue running straight toward where the lab is. It's quite far because the agents didn't dare to get closer since there might be other artificial master level mage in the lab. It's about fifty kilometers, I guess. Well, it's not a distance that needs a long time for us to reach.

I looked at the compass in my hand. It's pointing precisely at where we are going. I also need to trick the other side to think that we're coming their way.

I don't know about this magic tool, but if it can point somewhere, there might be another magic tool in the lab that can point to where this compass is. That's why I need to trick them just in case.

After I get closer to the lab, I asked Shelia to stop when no one is around. Well, we haven't even found a monster on the way. Let alone the enemy.

It's quite suspicious that no one is protecting the area near the lab, but I guess they are all going to Consenza. Even if some are still here, I need to get them all to die.

After stopping, I dig a hole on the ground and bury the compass along with a Blobby there. After that, we move to the right instead of going straight forward. We will circle the lab. Since we have guessed the distance to the lab, it's quite easy to get the distance right. Although there might be some slight error because we don't have the compass anymore, it should still be fine since we can still detect the location with Shelia's sense of smell and my Divine Vision once we get closer.

After circling the lab for a few minutes, we return to moving straight to the lab. Like before we didn't encounter anyone at all. And soon enough, Shelia smelled something.

"I smell some people. There were traces of them disappearing, which mean they have gone. But one of them are still remaining. Maybe the guard of the lab?" Shelia said.

"Get closer so I can see," I said.

Few seconds later, I can finally see a mysterious building in the middle of nowhere. That must be where the lab is. I could even see the entrance, but surprisingly, it only has one person to guard it.

Maybe I'm right that they can look at where my compass is. That's why they put more guard on the side we were supposed to come from and didn't care much about this side.

I don't know, and I won't bother to find out about it for now. I need to go to the lab quickly, grab everything important and kill everyone in sight before finally destroying the lab.

But that building sure is huge.. I might need to call someone to help me investigate.
