The Only Aura User In Magic World

"I believe, this is a really old fairy tale. But have either of you read about this story when you both still alive?"

I asked both Victoria and Sonia who had stayed in this world much longer than most people. Probably even the two oldest being in this world.

"Nope. But if it's about story, Victoria should have known better than me." Sonia pointed at Victoria and tell me it's better to ask Victoria instead.

I looked at Victoria and she explained.

"Back then, other than hunting monster, I love to read and write stories. Some of the books Sophie brought here were written by me. Like 'Beauty and the Rich' and 'Cloud White'. Those were originally written by me, but there might be some changes after a thousand year."

"Seriously? You wrote a story?" I was shocked to hear that. And Sophie seems interested in it.

"I just plagiarized from fairy tales from my original world. I also wrote other stuffs using different alias."

"What other stuffs?"

I didn't know that I would ask something I would regret.

"Stories about relationship between men! In fact, I also wrote something similar by using a character with the same characteristic as Roy as the protagonist!"

"Rip them apart! Burn them! Soak them into water and use it as fertilizer! Then burn all the harvest you make from any plant that use those fertilizer!"

Some things shouldn't exist in this world… in any world!

One thing I know about Victoria's original world is that no one lacked imagination! But I think there should be limit to how wild their imagination is!

"Huhuhu… no way! Even if all of them got destroyed, you could never destroy ideas! I can make a new one again no matter how many times you destroy them all!"

"No one can stop her from doing what she desired. Not even our master in the past. Just give up."

Sonia told me to just give up. There's really nothing I can do about it. I'll just check Victoria's room regularly from now on.

"By the way, I already have a sponsor. I sent some rough drafts to Hill in Mellian anonymously and he will support me. In fact, it was him who want the protagonist to be similar to you. He also…"

"Enough! Let's get back to the topic already! Have you read this story in back when you're alive?!"

I pointed at the book about the mage hero and Victoria shook her head.

"I've read almost every stories at that time, but I never read this one."

"So that means this story hasn't existed yet when you're alive. But this story was an old one that should have been modified many times. That means the original writer wrote this book around the time after you died. Maybe if we could find the original story, we will know if it's the truth or not."

That's the first step to know the truth.

The original author should be dead a long time ago. And even if we look for the current version of the book's author, we won't find much. But maybe it will be helpful.

"If anyone can find the author of the current version, let's ask him. What's his name again? Uneaten Beef? It's a pseudonym, huh?"

"There's a chance that the author has other aliases like I did. Maybe something similar like Raw Beef, Rare Beef, Medium Rare Beef, Well Done Beef, or Livestock." Victoria said

"Can we find a clue if we ask the publisher or seller?"

"Maybe, but don't forget that they are just plagiarizing book from the past. Even if we found the current version's author, he might not know anything about the truth."

Maybe I could ask historian about it? When we return to Melk, I'll try asking history teacher about hero. There wasn't any history telling us about heroes, but historian might have a clue.

"Hey, is it so important to know about the past? It was all just your assumption that the one who killed Sonia and Victoria are related to the current Evil God, right? What if you're wrong then?"

"…Angela is right. I think we should focus on the present. I also have asked the king to take care of the cult. Let's just improve our strength and study more for now. But if any of you find something related to what we're talking here, please tell me about it."

This conclude the two questions I was curious about the most right now. First is that there might be more uses in Aura than what we know at the moment. Then the one who killed Sonia and Victoria might be the same Evil God we're fighting against. Although it's just a possibility.

But at least we learned a lot today. Which is good.

"Umm… What's the thing you wanted to ask me?"

Sonia timidly asked me.

"Oh! I almost forgot. In the past, you casted a charm magic to this land, right? Then you stuck in this place forever, right? Can you still cast that magic now?"

"Umm… no. Sorry."

"I don't mind. Then what if we take a part of this land and carry it around with us. Will you be able to travel then?"

"Hmm? I don't know."

"Then let's try it."

Since in the first place there was no building here, I have to destroy the floor first to get some dirt from the ground under this building.

I walked to the center of this building, in the living room, and punched a hole on the ground.

I asked Lina to get me a container where I can put some of the dirt into, and she gave me a cup from the kitchen. Good enough.

I grabbed a bit of the ground and pour it into the cup I'm holding.

"I'll jump to the next building carrying this. Sonia, try to follow me!"

"Okay!"

Walking through the front door with a ghost will make everyone's shocked, so I get to the third floor's window so I could jump to the rooftop of our neighbor's building.

I looked at Sonia who expectant of the result. I guess a thousand years locked in one place will make her bored and want to see outside of this building.

"Ready?"

"Yes!"

Everyone stayed in the living room because I told them to stay. They don't have to come with me for these. Even Victoria is staying.

I jumped outside and landed on neighbor's rooftop. And… Sonia follows me!

She's finally able to leave that building!

"I'm moving? I'm moving! I can go anywhere now!"

"Yeah. You can go anywhere with someone who always carrying some dirt. I'll try with smaller amount now and leave this cup here."

I put the cup at the top of the rooftop and put a bit of dirt onto my hand. I clenched my fist tightly so no dirt will leave my hand.

This time, I tried to go further away. I left the city by jumping from building to building and left the city without anyone noticing. It was easy because of my 360 degree vision.

Maybe because I killed some small monsters Victoria collected and caged at home right after returning, I can see a bit further with my 360 degree vision.

Should I eat appraisal magic tools so I can appraise items with my eyes? I don't think I will. If I failed to get appraising eyes, I just ended up with stomachache. Then I shat magic tool. That's scary.

I ran to the outside with Sonia beside me. Of course with my vision I can see her without turning my head. Knowing that she can follow me this far with just a pinch of dirt, maybe my plan can work here.

"Alright. This is far enough."

"Aaah! This is the first time I'm so far away from that building! I missed the forest after all this time!"

"Well, you can enjoy the sight later. I have something else I want you to try. Can you return to our home instantly from here?"

"Hmm?"

"Try to go home directly and ask Victoria to say something weird. Then transport to where the cup from before is. If possible, grab the cup and transport here again. See if you can bring the cup with you. Oh! Try to come here only after I tell you to!"

"You mean like teleportation? And what do you mean by after you telling me?"

"I'll talk to the dirt and see if it can reach you. If I can't reach you, wait few seconds after you reach the cup to return here."

"I'll try!"

As soon as she said it, she disappear.

This distance is still within the range where my Vision Divine can see into our home. I looked at our home direction and see it was a success! She's currently asking Victoria to say something weird!

Why did I have to ask her to say something weird? Because she's a weirdo. I just want to see if Sonia can carry messages from one end to another. And Even if I told Victoria to say something good, she might just say something weird in the end.

Sonia then disappear from our house and appear on the next building. Then I bring the dirt in my hand close to my mouth and trying to tell Sonia to come here.

Sonia tried to grab the cup but she failed. So she pretend to hold the cup on her hand and teleported here.

She appear here with a weird posture like she's holding a sword on her hand. Why is she holding a cup like she's wielding a sword? Maybe her main weapon is a sword in the past.

"I can't bring the cup, but I succeeded in teleporting. I can tell that you're speaking something from that little bit of dirt but I don't know what you're saying. And Victoria said 'Roy X Hill is a good shipping'."

"That's great! Not Victoria's word. Everything apart from that is good even without the cup. Let's go home now."

"…Sure." Sonia seems dejected knowing she had to go home just as soon as she can go outside.

"Don't worry. You can follow me or anyone else later when we're going outside."

Sonia didn't teleported like before. She instead choose to follow me and see the outside world. That was why I went home slowly.

Back at home, I told everyone what I want to do with this experiment.

"I want everyone here to carry some dirt from this land with you at all time. Put some dirt inside a necklace or a bag and carry with you at all time. That way we can communicate with each other via Sonia."

"I see! If we could have a way to communicate, accident like before won't happen again! We can just ask you how to deal with it so you won't be in hurry to finish your business again!"

"Kayla is right. Even in the future, we lack the means of communication. I have some ideas for those from the future, but for us, Sonia is enough."

"Does that mean…"

"Yes. Now you can follow anyone of us anywhere. We can contact you by talking to the dirt we're carrying. Once you feel like someone called you, you have to go over there right away."

"Okay!"

Sonia seems happy now. And we also had a way to communicate even from distance.

Now no matter how long we're separated, we can be in touch with each other.

I don't know the range in which Sonia can go to, but I hope it's far.
