Chapter 484: Meeting Thomas

“Luckily, Lynn only gave the order this morning. The wife hadn’t told anyone yet, but it seems like she was planning to at night when her husband is sleeping. As for the man, he doesn’t even know that his wife is related to the cult. Well, they are in the middle of a chat right now. Though both of them are wearing collars and are being tied,” Albert said.

Right now, I’m in Tatrama after transporting the man who was supposed to be my guide around the arena, and his wife.

I was just suspicious about the man because Lynn stupidly told him how strong I am. It’s just breaking a rock with my strength, but it’s a key information that the cult, especially the Evil God, that must not know yet.

We are still skeptical if the Evil God is still the same person who killed all Aura users in the past or not. We are moving ahead assuming that he is the same person so we can be prepared for anything.

“Then, that was really close. If I didn’t get suspicious, the cult would have known that I’m an Aura user,” I said to Albert.

“Yeah. That was really close. But don’t blame Lynn. I too, knowing that I have a friend that can crush a boulder barehanded without magic, I want to boast about you,” Albert said.

“I’m not blaming her. She’s just lacking experience even though she has been an Empress longer than you have been a king. Seems like when Lynn gave the order, Claudia wasn’t there so she couldn’t stop her in time. I bet Claudia is scolding Lynn right now. If I bring Celestine in, she would be crying non-stop,” I said.





.....

“Still, do you really want to continue hiding the fact that you can use Aura? I don’t think it’s as important as you thought it is,” Albert asked curiously.

“Not really. I actually don’t mind much that there will be more people know that I’m an Aura user. I just think that it could be a good bait against the cult. If they know about Aura, they will put off everything to get to me. If they don’t, that means the Evil God is not the same person as the one who killed Sonia and Victoria in the past, and he didn’t spread the knowledge about Aura to the cult. I don’t know when, but let’s use my status as Aura user one day during the right moment. The tournament is close, but even if they bring many strong people to fight, I don’t think they will bring every single members of the cult there. Which mean it’s still a long way until their destruction,” I said.

“That’s a good idea. There will be a right time, but it’s not now. Well, I also have new information I received from the Professor. Want to hear it?”

Oh? He still managed to get more information from the Professor? If he’s not a king, he will be a really talented interrogator.

“What is it?” I asked.

“Well, it’s about the invention to travel to the moon, or should I say the Monsters World,” Albert said.

“What about it?”

“It might have been successful, but because they don’t have a way to communicate, they don’t know yet. They used mages to power the vehicle, so I guess it’s pretty big and can hold a lot of people at once,” Albert said.



“...doesn’t that mean Marie is in danger? Well, she has always been in danger ever since she invented the Television with Victoria. I guess nothing change,” I said.

“Actually, ever since the Television has been used for the college tournament, people have entered the capital. Some of them are members of the cult. But so far, Miguel managed to find any suspicious people and kill or arrest them,” Albert said.

Miguel? Who is this guy again?

“You know him as Mustache,” Albert said.

“Oh, right. How was he? I have never seen him for a while already.”

“He’s an expert level mage now. And he’s been so busy with the security of the palace and the capital. Though I will bring him later to Consenza as my bodyguard, so you will meet him again,” Albert said.

Well, as long as he didn’t shave his mustache, I can tell who he is.

...is this just like how the members of the cult can only tell Celestine from her breasts and Veronica from her butts?

“Well, if that’s all, I will go get some rest before asking the Professor even further. What do you want with him? He doesn’t know anything,” Albert asked about the man I brought.

“He will stay prisoned here for a while until the tournament and everything else is over before he can return. Or maybe I can have him returned to see how evil the cult is? Whatever. If he’s annoying, just kill him. I’ll tell Lynn that he won’t be coming back soon,” I said before opening a portal to return back to Consenza.

“Okay. See you later,”

With that, I returned back to the palace in Consenza and see the Empress is crying from being scolded by Claudia.

“...I thought I need to bring Celestine here to make you cry, but I guess Claudia alone is enough,” I said to the crying Empress.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry...” Lynn keeps apologizing over and over again. I guess I won’t scold her anymore.

“Okay. The woman is a member of the cult, but the man isn’t. Since the woman is going to tell other members of the cult about her husband’s mission, it means she will meet them soon. And there’s a place where they gather together at night. I’m going to at least kill those people later tonight. See you later,”

I used a portal back to the Arena, and look around again at the arena. I can see some mysterious tools around the Arena. If they are another explosive device, whoever planted them are thinking of activating them during the tournament.

Other than the screens, cameras, and the microphone for the commentators, there shouldn’t be any other magic tools in the arena. Claudia has informed me about everything that should be placed. I don’t think they will be activated anytime soon, but I have reported about it to Claudia before I close the portal.

After checking the Arena, I’m thinking of patrolling and search the cult’s hideouts in this place. But I almost forget to do one thing.

I opened a portal to the Monsters Village. It’s on the Blobby that Red, the representative of the werewolves, had.

“Red, I want you to get some werewolves to move and see if they can find the scent of humans in that world other than those you know. There’s a chance that the enemy has started invading your world, but there’s no evidence yet. Just tell me if you find anything,” I said.

“Understood. If we find any who are still alive, can we kill them?” Red asked.

“If they have more than one, you can kill them and leave at least one person alive. Don’t go too far since I might summon you all soon. But after that, you can continue look further,” I said.

After giving the order to Red, I closed the portal. The werewolves will think that it might be a good way to practice since they almost failed in defeating a mohawk before. But since there will be a fight soon, they won’t go too far even if I didn’t tell him.

As for other races, they are useless in tracking. Well, not really useless. It’s just that the werewolves are too good at it, so they don’t really have much presence other than when I need them. Especially the elves. I don’t know what they are doing in the forest they created. Worshipping Sunny?

After telling the werewolves about the mission to track any human’s trace, I patrolled the capital and kill any cult members who are walking in an empty alley.

Since the tournament will begin soon, there are many members of the cult roaming in the capital. And it’s difficult to find them walking alone. I guess I’ll snipe them from afar tonight. Now, it’s around the time of my meeting with Thomas. My return as Clarence is coming.

I entered the restaurant we’re meeting in, and see that Thomas was already there waiting for me. Well, actually, I saw him even before I entered the restaurant.

“Thomas, how’s the business?”

After greeting him and had a small chat, I asked him about the circus.

“It has become so popular now. Though when we were at Arturo, we were scared shitless. Hearing that we are going to perform in front of many members of the cult scare me. Though since the performers are all special agent, they are rather calm about it. I’m the only normal person in the circus,” Thomas said.

“How were the performers?”

“They are doing really great. In fact, some of them are willing to pursue their career in circus performance after the cult is destroyed.”

“Me too. If the cult is destroyed, I am interested in performing more regularly. Though I don’t want to do it too much,” I said.

“You’re going to return as Clarence the clown, right? Later tonight, try not to outperform the other performers. It was difficult to meet the expectation of the audience after you performed,” Thomas said.

I guess he’s right. I’ll hold back more next time, and let the others get the spotlight.

I got my role back quickly and will perform right away tonight after training with the other performers. So, after the meeting at the restaurant, I greeted the other performers.

Once the show is over, it’s sniping time.
