The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 164: Another Element?

I can finally see Candy after running for a while. But even with my speed, it will take a while until I reached her.

Candy is only playing defense here. Thanks to the fishnet stocking underneath her pants, she can defend herself and people near her from the governor’s fire magic and ice magic. That equipment is too awesome. If only it was not in the form of a fishnet stocking, I would take it for myself.

With the special effect of that stocking, Candy can change the temperature of anything near her in an instant. Making fire disappear, and ice melt instantly when they get close to her. As far as I know, it’s the greatest magic equipment ever to be found from a dungeon. Making one invulnerable toward fire and ice is too overpowered.

But the biggest flaw of that stocking, other than its form which makes most men don’t want to wear them, is that the wearer won’t be able to cast any magic of fire and ice element. Which makes Candy unable to fight the governor with her fire element.

She can only fight by using her lightning element, but the governor also has the same element. But his lightning element is stronger than Candy’s. Which makes Candy’s magic doesn’t make any real damage to him.

As for the Ms. Wendy and the other agents, they can’t do anything against him. But to think that he won’t come out at all until all of his guards died, making it at least a bit easier for us. Had he come out sooner before all of his guards died, Candy and the others would have been dead already.

So now my mission is to save Candy, then put the Magic Restriction Collar on the governor’s neck, and pluck out the HGB from his mouth. But can I put the collar before he explode his head?

.....

I can do it if I knock him out first.

But seeing how he is on high alert, it would be impossible to approach him. And he’s too strong as well.

This will be my biggest challenge so far.

Soon I saw the governor in sight without any obstruction. There’s no wall, no trees, and no people blocking me from him. And I prepared several sharp rocks and put them inside Victorifle. I have 33 chances with all the sharp rocks I put in Victorifle. Those sharp rocks are the ones Kayla made for me on the way here thanks to her wand.

I still have a lot of smaller unsharpened pebbles, but that’s for later.

When my view is unobstructed, I shot one bullet at the governor right away. Once it got close to him, he noticed something is coming and prepared an Ice wall to protect himself. The bullet got stopped by the ice wall, but that’s fine. That shot was meant to distract him from Candy and the others.

The governor then looked at my direction. Although we’re far apart, he noticed where I am. There’s no point in hiding so I prepared my second shot. I used my Divine Vision to see his muscles to predict what kind of movement he will do. Any suspicious move meant another shot at him.

I also didn’t just run straight toward him. I am making sure that the first Ice Wall that he made won’t obstruct my shot. But his eyes are following my move.

“Kayla! Contact Sonia! Tell her to relay a message to Candy and the others to hide inside that clothing store!” Since it will be difficult for me to focus on the governor while talking, I made Kayla do the talking.

When I spoke to Kayla, he seems to have noticed that I was slightly distracted and preparing a Fireball at me. But I shot my second bullet already. He then cancelled the Fireball and made another Ice Wall.

I keep moving after that and soon, Sonia appear next to me. And the governor had a shocked expression when he saw a ghost suddenly appear. I took that chance to shoot my third bullet.

His reaction was delayed a bit and the Ice Wall he built the third time wasn’t fast enough to protect him. But he’s still an experienced mage. He dodged the bullet slightly by moving his head a little. The bullet only left a scratch on his cheek.

Alright. He seems to be easily distracted by something that suddenly appear. He was extremely alert, but that could be his weakness as well. Only temporary though. If he’s really an experienced mage, he will soon realize his own weakness and try to cover it. But while he hadn’t done that, I’ll make sure to use that weakness first.

I move to another location but not without thinking. I make sure that both Candy’s and my location are in his sight.

Kayla has finished relayed my message to Sonia and Sonia will appear near Candy. I’ll use that chance to shot him again.

The moment Sonia appears next to Candy, the governor was stunned as expected. And I shot another bullet again. This time, my target is his chest. But he also learned his lesson.

As soon as he heard the sound of the shooting, he quickly build an Ice Wall big enough to cover him from me. But that Ice Wall is quite fragile as it was made in a hurry so it’s still broken through. The bullet struck his left chest. It didn’t reach his heart but it damaged his lung.

I then moved to the rooftop of the building that I told Candy to hide into, and dropped Kayla there. She will heal Candy while I’m trying to capture the governor.

I move around quite a bit and shot several more times and finally, I stopped when I’m just ten meters away from him.

Wait! I forgot that the Magic Restriction Collar is still with Candy! That means I have to get close to him and pluck the HGB from his mouth? I think knocking him out is a better idea.

First, I can’t have him realize that I know about the explosive inside his mouth. Or he will use that for his advantage knowing that we’re here to capture him.

“Why don’t you just die already? Don’t dodge my shot next time, okay?” I tried to provoke him.

“...you’re taming a ghost to be a long distant communication tool? That’s a great idea.” He said. ????????????r????????????. ????om

“I know, right? Anyway, governor... no. I’ll just call you Luiz if that’s fine with you. If it’s not fine, it doesn’t matter anyway. There’s a stampede happening. Why didn’t you do anything?” I pretend to not know about the cult.

“...who are you?” Luiz asked.

“I’m someone whose girlfriend about to be killed by you. Now please answer my question already.”

“I just want to destroy the city. If she’s your girlfriend, do you know why she attacked me and killed all my guards?”

I guess it’s time for a back and forth questions times.

“Looking at you who doesn’t care that his town is about to be destroyed, I’m quite sure that the reason she wants to kill you is because you’re such a hateful governor. I bet there are a lot of people who wanted you die.”

“Huff... so what? Many people tried to kill me even in the past, but none of them succeeded. And you will fail as well.”

Luiz is starting to get out of breathe. It was because I used my air magic to make sure the air he breathe is getting thinner and thinner. I hope it’s enough to make him faint.

“No. I won’t fail.”

“Huff... huff... but you’re-!!!”

His eyes suddenly shot open as he realizes something. He suddenly moved away from that spot.

I instantly transformed Victorifle into a Victogun and shot Luiz.

But this time, Luiz’s Ice Wall is stronger than before and my bullet unable to pierce through it.

“Huff... was it you? I have a hard time breathing... huff...”

Since he already noticed it, there are only two choice for me. One is to keep attacking him and making him out of breath, or talking with him until he fainted.

Let’s try talking first.

“What if I am?”

“This... is air element magic... huff...”

Then he somehow able to take a deep breath and his breathing is slowly returning to normal again. Don’t tell me!

“You’re also an air element mage? You have four elements?!”

I was really surprised by this revelation. Other than Angela, I have never met another person with four elements. Two or three are quite common, but four? This battle will be harder and harder. I can no longer knock him out with making him unable to breathe.

“Huhuhu... it’s the weakest among all the elements I have. It’s still in beginner level even after so many years I tried to improve it. I thought that was fine since air magic only help me in breathing, but to think that you can also use it to get someone out of breath... there are still many things I can learn at this age, huh? Are those projectiles shot with using air magic as well?”

I was stunned to hear his correct observation of my attacks.

Calm down, me! It just mean he’s very smart and sharp. The fight is getting harder but it’s still not impossible to win. I’m still better than him in using air magic and moving my body. I can still win this fight!

I aimed Victogun at him. The real battle is about to begin!
