The Only Aura User In Magic World

813 Training While Waiting

While waiting for the centaurs to come back, I called Albert about what’s happening here.

“They have the ability to detect lies? I guess centaur is the creature that my ancestor killed then. And you want me to come there with you so I can tell if they are lying or not when they promised that they won’t tell other people, right?” Albert asked.

“Yes. They are quite smart. Also, they used to have the ability to see the future as well. At least very few among their kind. But today, there are no more centaurs with the ability to see the future anymore,” I said.

“So it’s not just my ancestor. Fabio’s ancestor also killed a certain type of centaur to get the ability to see the future. Do you want to get Fabio as well?” Albert asked.

“Not really. Also, there will be a fight. They said that they will listen, but they still need to fight to see if we’re stronger than them. They won’t follow anyone weaker than them. Just like most of the monsters who follow me,” I said.

The werewolves and the weretigers are with us because I defeated the strongest ones. As for the angels, I think it was mostly because of threat. Though they followed me voluntarily now.

The elves, they followed Sunny. The flower that they worship. And since Sunny is Lina’s familiar, who is my maid and lover, they followed me as well.

Next is vampires. Now they are addicted to my blood. I guess I’m some sort of drug dealer to them.

Though I’m still stronger than any of them. Even for those who haven’t fought me, I can still defeat them.

.....

“So this time, you’re going to fight the strongest centaur?” Albert asked.

“No. This time, it won’t be me. Those centaurs are still monsters. And I don’t have any slot for more familiar. So I will let the master level summoner to fight that centaur. He will then make a contract with the centaur if he win. I’m currently teaching him how to use sword. If you’re ready, contact me so I will bring you here,” I said.

Then I hang up. He’s still busy, but it seems like the centaurs’ village is quite far. So we should have a bit of time.

I also opened a portal first to bring Graham here. He will be the healer in case someone is injured if the battle is commenced here. As for the battle, if the centaurs let us decide where we should fight, I will bring them to somewhere near the Monsters Village. Though it shouldn’t be a village anymore. A city perhaps?

Well, I’ll just call it Monsters Village as usual. Or maybe a country? Well, if the centaurs decided to join, then the monsters group will be bigger. I guess calling it a country is fine. But it will still be a village for me. Because it’s annoying to change the name.

“Roy. I’m using two swords. But why do you only teach me to use one sword?” the summoner asked.

“You only touched those swords for a few days. It’s impossible for you, even with your strength as a master level mage, to be familiar with those weapons. Using both hands to defend and attack at the same time is difficult for newbie like you. And if there’s a fight, it will only be a one on one battle at best. So you should focus on using one sword,” I said.

The summoner decided to pick two two-handed swords. Because of their length, he can use them to fight while riding a monster.

He has only been using it in practice for a few days. While he’s also practicing for his performance in the circus. I think he will decide to give up on circus soon. Together with the other two master level mages.

Well, that’s fine. If they want to get stronger, I will support them.

I taught the summoner how to wield a two-handed sword. Although I mostly use a katana, it’s originally a two-handed weapon. So I know a bit about using it.

But there’s a difference between the two. Like the blade on the katana is smaller and thinner than the two-handed sword. And after using them, I know that the katana is more specialized in slashing attack. Even the curve on the katana helped with the slashing. But for a longsword, even if they are good to use for slashing, it’s not as good as the katana.

Well, in the end, the technique is the most important. Even if katana is better at slashing, if the longsword wielder is the better swordsman, the katana wielder will lose.

I taught the summoner while the tamer is learning about spear. And he’s also using only one spear when he picked two from the blacksmith as well.

For the tamer, I can teach him well since I often used Reizpear as my main weapon. So I know a lot about using spear and taught him everything I know.

Even if he’s not fighting right now, he should still train.

Should I teach him my special skill with spear? The... I forgot the names.

How could I forget the name of something I invented myself?! This is not fun.

Well, I’ll just call it the Twisting Spear Thrust for now. Though I might change it later.

That skill is too much for the tamer even if he’s a master level mage. He needs to twist his body as much as possible while pulling back his spear, then as he twist the spear and his body, he will thrust the spear ahead to his target. The tamer doesn’t have enough flexibility in his body to do that.

Though I can at least show him how to do it.

“You two. Watch me. This is the skill I developed after using spear for so long. For the summoner, this might not be important. But it’s always good to watch new technique. Maybe you can develop your own skill based on this skill later. Well, just watch. I won’t use Aura so maybe you can reach this level one day,” I said.

Then I take out Reizpear’s pieces from my pocket and restore it back to normal.

I grabbed the spear with both hands. With my left hand in front holding the middle of the spear while the right hand is holding the butt of the spear.

Then I twisted my body and my right hand. While my left hand is holding the spear to hold the twisted spear so the spearhead. So while the spear twisting, the front part, the part where the blade is, doesn’t twist and still aiming straight forward.

Then I thrust the spear toward the tree in front of me as I removed my left hand. It was both quick and strong. And the tree in front of me can’t stop my attack and got destroyed.

Not only the tree has a hole in it, the hole is as big as human’s head. That’s the damage that I did with a spear. Even though the tip of the spear is smaller than the hole.

Now that I used it again, I remember something. A skill is important. Maybe I’ll try using the same trick with other weapons. Because after all, I’m still using various type of weapons.

“Whoa! That was amazing.”

“To make a hole on the tree like that. It’s an instant kill for anyone in front of you.”

Right after their praises, the tree can no longer endure its own weight and fall down.

“For you, that skill is still too much. I’m just showing you so you can at least see what you can do in the future if you decide to go with close combat instead of magic. If I use Aura, my attack will be much stronger. But don’t try this now. You need to be just strong enough to defeat the centaur you will be fighting,” I said to the two.

If the summoner win, he can get a quite powerful and smart familiar.

I know from experience that if you ride a compatible monster, something or someone you can communicate with, then you can be stronger as well.

After teaching them both for a bit more, I opened a portal to bring Albert here. Then I got a contact from Victoria via telepathy.

“It’s done! They’re going out for real from now on!”

It hasn’t been long since we left, right? Oh, well. Maybe it has. I lost track of time while teaching these two.

It’s good. Thomas and Sandra are going out now. There will be party later. But not now.

“That’s great. By the way, we’re in Monsters World preparing to face a group of centaurs. Though we need to tell them about everything first. Apparently, they have the ability to detect lies. So I brought Albert here. You want to come as well?”

I invited Victoria if she wants to come. She’s done spying on Thomas and Sandra. So she might be interested in this. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ɴo(v)elFɪre.net

Victoria agreed to come. So I summoned her.

After I brought the two here, we still need to wait for the centaurs to come.

Why do they take so long? Maybe it’s because they need to explain it to the others in their tribe as well after reaching there.

While waiting, Victoria made a comment to the summoner that cause disturbance in our mind.

“You suck at using sword. Change it.”

...Well, do we have time until the centaurs return?
