The Only Aura User In Magic World

The next morning, I went to the cave where the All-seeing Eye resides together with everyone. All three of them are coming. Angela, Kayla, and even Victoria choose to come instead of doing her… hobby.

"So, why are you guys coming?"

"We will only go to the entrance. We won't get inside and just hunt the monsters around the cave. And telling other human if they ever come to that place to go away."

"Angela is worried about you. And so am I. So we choose to come with you to the entrance. At least when the battle is over, I can heal you as fast as possible."

"Oh! So you're worried about me? How sweet of you!"

As Angela was making excuses of why she come with me, Kayla said the truth that they were worried about me. And to think that Kayla's healing magic slipped my mind is stupid of me despite I'm the one who received healing from her the most.

"And so… Why is Angela carrying Blobby?"

"It's for us to know your well-being. As soon as the battle ended, whether you win or lose, quickly summon Blobby so we know you have finished. If we see that Blobby disappeared from Angela's arm, that means you have summoned her and we can go to your side as fast as possible."

"That really slipped my mind. Thank you for thinking of me that much."

"You're welcome. After all you haven't finished teaching us everything yet so we can't have you die. My fencing skill can still grow and I need you to teach me more."

"Me too. After all you're the perfect target for my magic."

"Angela? Is that all you think of me? Being your practice target?"

"…just don't die."

Angela seems shyer than usual. Could it be love? Does she loves me? If I tease her about it then she might just answer it with saying as a friend, so let's not. Maybe in this timeline, I can get myself a girlfriend so I don't have to do it at the brothel like I used to. Oh wait! I live in a brothel now so in the end I will keep going to the brothel!

"Anyway, aren't those heavy? You're carrying three barrels on your own."

"Well, not really. I'm using a bit of Aura to improve my strength so this much is easy to handle. I thought of using a cart but it would be difficult to use the cart inside the cave. But had I know that you guys are coming, I would have used a cart and leave it to you."

"Having Aura is convenient. I hope I can be an Aura user one day."

"Good luck, Kayla! I hope you can do it. As for me, I think I'll just keep improving my magic. But when you exercise, I'll join you as well. Being fit is useful in many ways."

We continued chatting as we got closer and closer to the cave. And finally we arrived at the front of the cave.

"Well, wish me luck. See you later!"

I entered the cave as the girls and a slime watching me until they can't see me. They should be looking for monster to train now. According to the past few days coming here, I know that the monsters around here are at the level where they might have some difficulty defeating them. But if they work together, they can win. If they take a rest at the entrance of this cave, monsters also won't try to enter. They're too scared of the All-seeing Eye's presence in this cave.

I've walked deep down until I stopped about thirty meters before I reached the room where the monster is. This location is far enough so that monster won't be able to see me. That's what I've learned after ten days of experiment.

I stopped and lit a cigarette. I'm not a smoker. Not even in my past lives. I just lit it because it will be my source of fire to burn the oil after I throw the barrels to the monster. If I light it inside the room, the monster might noticed it. That's why I used cigarette.

Then I checked my preparation again. After I felt that everything is okay, I carried two barrels of oil on my left, and one on my right so I can throw it as soon as I entered.

I still haven't planned to use my Aura yet. I still don't know if All-seeing Eye is hiding other abilities or not. After all, this will be the first time ever that someone is trying to kill that monster.

And now… RUN!

I run as fast as possible without using my Aura yet. In a few seconds, I will see that monster again.

As soon as I saw the monster, it tried to attack me with its bladed tentacles. That's the same attack I experienced ten times before! There's no way it can touch me!

I evaded the tentacle and throw one barrel at the huge eyeball. The force of impact is strong enough to break the barrel and oil started to smear on its body… or eye.

"That's one!"

My right hand grabbed another barrel and prepared to throw it again. This time, the eyeball protected itself by the tentacles but some of the tentacles is still trying to attack me.

So far, there's no difference than the previous days. Its attacks are still the same with all the time I experimented before. Which mean the next attack is the tentacle with suctions on it!

It tried to grab me but I dodged it again. And now I can see the pear-y fruit that it tried to protect. Although I planned to burn the monster, there's no way I want that fruit to be burnt. As I predicted, the first oil wasn't reaching the fruit. And the next one won't be as well.

I throw another barrel but this time it hit the tentacles that tried to protect its eyeball. I'm not expecting all the oil to hit the eye so this is still within the range of error. As long as the oil touched any part of its body without touching the fruit at all, it's still a success for me.

Then the last oil barrel. The All-seeing Eye's attack has become faster although it still has many of its tentacles protecting the eyeball. My right hand grabbed my spear and with one hand, I used my spear to parry and attack the tentacles.

And as I was doing that, I throw the last oil barrel with my left hand up high in the air. The monster must have been confused with what I'm doing despite it can see my every moves. It decided to look up at the barrel I throw above it. And that's the moment I've been looking for! One short moment of carelessness!

I blow the cigarette I was smoking right to its eyeball! It didn't expect me to burn it before all the barrels hit that thing!

And before my cigarette hit the oily eyeball, I moved direction and run to the fruit. I must save that fruit before it got burnt!

I run to the fruit and grabbed it as some tentacles tried to grab me. And when I grab Pear-y fruit, the cigarette hit the eyeball.

"All according to the plan!"

Then as it burnt, I heard a roar. It's a scream of pain by the monster.

"GRRRRAAAAAAAAHH!!!"

"Scream in pain! And die for my sake… wait! That thing is screaming? It has mouth?!"

As I thought of that, I saw from the eyeball, another tentacle grow from it with mouth at the end of that tentacle. It's the first time I saw it.

"Wait! That means poisoning it with Carbon Monoxide is useless! That thing's mouth can reach for a place where the air is not poisoned because of the flame! Which means all I have left to do is to fight it directly while I'm the one who's worried about the air. Fuck!"

I put the fruit in the pocket of my jacket, and charged to the eyeball. Even if it has mouth, its organ are mostly in that eyeball. So this will be my first time using Aura for real against that monster.

I slashed down the flailing tentacles with my spear and stabbed through the tentacles trying to protect the eyeball. My spear hit the eye and I put more power in my spear so I can pierce through it and kill it.

It's not deep enough!

I stepped back and pulled my spear so I can pierce it again, but now all the tentacles are chasing me!

Even after using Aura, I still unable to kill it in one shot. As expected of a monster without a record of anyone ever defeating it.

I step back again and took my small Oxygen Tank so I can breathe. For me, my record of holding my breath while using Aura and moving is fifteen minute. So from now, every fifteen minute I will take my breath while fighting it.

Now the real battle has begun!
