The Only Aura User In Magic World

858 Found a Place Where Sea Water Can’t Enter

We continued looking for a monster at the deepest part of the sea. And it has been a month since we first dived to the bottom.

There were several breaks that I did. Because someone found a place with a lot of members of the cult. Some people with the explosive devices in their mouth, and some hid them in their house.

So I helped with the investigation and killed those who are confirmed to be members of the cult. That’s the break that I took.

Though there were two days when I didn’t do anything other than hanging out with the girls. Because I have been diving for so long for a long time, I got bored. So I took some breaks while Spot was hanging out with his children.

We found several strong monsters. Some were as strong as Spot. And some, while not as strong as Spot, they were bigger than him. But I don’t feel like they can be a good familiar.

What makes one a good familiar? I don’t really know myself. It’s just that after I made contract with my four other familiars, I just felt that they are good monsters. Good in the meaning that they could be really helpful for me. Not their personality.

Though today, they are extremely loyal to me. None of them have unlikable personality at all.

Wait, maybe that’s what I needed. A monster with compatible personality with me. A monster that will help me when I ask them instead of having to force them to do what I wanted them to do.

I guess a weaker monster than Spot is fine then. But I feel like that won’t be enough.

.....

Should I go after a king of a tribe again? And get a lot of monsters to join me.

If only it would be that easy. It has been a month since I started looking, but I haven’t found anyone good at all.

“Sigh... Roy, I think I had enough looking for monster. We have entered a deeper part of the sea. Much deeper than when I raced Ray before. But there’s no one good enough to be your familiar. And I feel like if I continue diving so deep, then resurfaced, then go deep again, and resurfaced again, my body won’t be able to take too much of it anymore. Sorry, but I have to give up helping you here,” Spot said to me.

We have stayed at the bottom of the sea for five days again this time before I got hungry. And after we resurfaced and stopped at an empty island, Spot said that he gave up searching for monster.

His body won’t be able to take it anymore? Maybe he will be able to if he trained his body more. But what we did was not training him. He just forced himself to go deep into the water.

“Alright. I’ll ask Ray if he wants to help. Then, what will you do after this?” I asked Spot.

“After diving so deep for a while, I think that it could be a good training for me. But this time, I will only be training and won’t force myself to go too deep. Just take me to where my children are, then we will train this way,” Spot said.

As expected, he knows what I’m thinking. He knows that he can get stronger still. And has found a way to get stronger even if it’s just bit by bit.

After that, I opened a portal for Spot to where his children are training. Then after he enters it, I opened a portal to where Ray is and asked him if he wants to join.

I can ask him via telepathy, but asking him directly shows that I care about him. So it’s better this way. Especially since he’s near the Monsters Village.

Ray can’t speak, but I know his feeling. Knowing that even Spot had a hard time even though he’s a sea monster, half sea monster, Ray thought that he won’t be able to do it for so long. So he refused.

I told him that I can use air magic and Aura to protect him. But he still refused.

I guess I’ll go by myself then. Oh, wait. Together with Victoria only.

Why am I fine when even Spot had a hard time? Because as a doctor, I know well about human body. I’m also an Aura Master so I covered not only my body, but also my internal organ with Aura so I will be fine with the change in water pressure.

Aura users are truly weird. I wonder how it feels to live during Timmy’s era? Or maybe Victoria’s and Sonia’s era before the Evil God started hunting Aura users?

With so many Aura users back then... no one will be safe anywhere if those Aura users decided to do crimes. I guess I can somehow understand why the Evil God decided to kill all Aura users if that’s the case.

I mean, one of the monster near me, Sonia, used charm magic to make men fall for her. She’s a criminal herself.

And I heard that someone the Evil God cared about was one of Sonia’s harem member. Should I say that everything is Sonia’s fault?

No, that’s too much. Maybe she’s just the trigger. The Evil God realized that it’s great to kill all Aura users after that.

Though the past is not important right now. What’s important is to stop the cult from destroying the world.

After Ray rejecting my request to join me in my search, I returned back to Cassau to rest. I think I’ll take a few days of rest again. Because from the next dive, I will be alone. And that means I will spend more energy than before. And I will get hungry faster.

And so, I took another break and hanging out with the others.

By the way, I didn’t forget to put some Blobbies at the bottom of the sea. They are disguised as a rock so they won’t get eaten.

The purpose is not for me to be able to go there right away. But it’s just another method of attacking. By opening a portal directly to the bottom of the sea, and use it as a method of attack.

No one other than water mages should be able to endure the pressure. Though I doubt even water mages could do it. Even I won’t be able to enter it easily.

If there are a large group of enemies in front of me, and no allies at all, I can just open a portal there and let them all die from the pressure. Maybe I’ll ask Carmen and other water mages to help me with changing the direction of the water. That would be great.

Once I find my last familiar, let’s practice with Carmen. If it’s possible, then that method could be used in the future.

After my break, I dived into the ocean again. Alone.

I returned to where I last went to with Spot, and go deeper.

I found more monsters, but none of them seem to be good enough to be my familiar. So I continued looking.

“It’s a shame that no one can see what’s under the sea like you did. Thanks to your vision-sharing ability, I can see how beautiful it is underwater. If people won’t die just by going here, then this could be a great place for a date,” Victoria said telepathically.

“There’s no light down here. But maybe Kayla who is a light mage can use her magic to illuminate the bottom of the sea. Though that only meant that more monsters will chase after us. Well, not like I can bring anyone here anyway,” I said.

Those I bring here, have to stay close to me at all time so I can use air magic for them to breathe, and Aura to protect their bodies and inner organ from the pressure.

Oh, what’s that? A trench?

There’s a huge hole in front of me. The size is about 3 km in diameter. But I can’t see the bottom. So I guess that this is a trench. And the hole is the entrance into the trench.

Should I test my luck here in hope to find a monster to be my last familiar?

Obviously. Luck is what I need the most to find something. So without hesitation, I jumped into the trench.

Again, with Victoria as a heavy suit, I dived quickly into the trench. She’s no longer playing around by tying my legs and pulled me down with a heavy rock.

As I go deeper, the hole became bigger. I can no longer see the wall anymore. But I’m still falling.

I don’t know how long I have been falling. But I doubt I will reach the center of this planet.

Then I looked down. Sooner or later, I should reach the bottom.

And then I see it. A place where no water enters even though it should be the deepest part of the sea.

There’s air at the bottom of the ocean? What kind of place is this?

A cloud where the angels live. Then a floating island. And now, a place where water can’t enter? And there’s air in there? People can breathe there?

That’s magic, I suppose. Let’s go there and see what thing I will encounter there.
