The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 190: A Disciple

“You can come in for now. Then, we can talk once you can adjust the volume of your voice.”

I allow the girl to enter the house and let her sit on the dining hall. If I’m right, then she is someone who wanted to be my disciple. But in what? In critical thinking? I don’t know how to teach that to others. Maybe Kayla will be the perfect teacher for her.

For now, I’ll confirm her desire in coming here first.

“Have you... adjusted your voice yet?”

The girl shakes her head. What is it that makes her unable to adjust her voice easily? It’s quite normal for other people to do it, but she finds it difficult to do so.

She lets out a voice from time to time to make sure that her voice has lowered. Just like how I practice to copy other people’s voice.

While I’m waiting for her to adjust herself, the girls have returned from their training and cultivating. Sophie, Shirley, and Candy just return from their training outside, and Kayla and Angela come down from their room after a day of cultivating.

.....

Ian and Ruby have just returned from grocery shopping, and the kids and Penny are just wake up from their naps. And everyone is waiting for this loud girl to say what she wants.

Too long! If it’s this long, then we might end up finishing dinner first!

I guess we have no choice but to let her talk after we finished dinner.

“You can have your chat later. For now, please stay for dinner.”

The one who said that is Ruby. She noticed that if we wait any longer, dinner will be cold then.

“THANK YOU, MA’AM!” Loud girl shouted loudly.

We ate the crabs I got today. And they were delicious. Maybe we should really breed some crabs so we can get more of these easily. How about I make a pond in that empty island for the sake of breeding? I’ll think about that later.

For now, this loud girl whose name I forgot, her plan coming here should be to ask me to teach her. I can just ask Kayla to do that since I think she’s a better role model than me.

Back then when she asked for my help in saving her village, I don’t think she has manifested her magic yet. That means she’s younger than me. For someone who hasn’t manifest her magic yet, the only thing I can teach her is to make decision in any kind of situation. As for teaching her magic control, I can teach her once she has manifested her magic.

Maybe it’s a good time to teach Hannah as well? She’s eleven years old now. In four more years, she will manifest her magic elements and attend school. And since the cult won’t make a move for ten years, and we also planning on building our strength as well, we might need Hannah to fight in the future as well.

That’s something I hate. To let children grow and fight our battle. And in ten years, that’s when Daniel turns fifteen and manifest his magic elements as well. Maybe I should have gone with Veronica to their headquarter in the first place and kill them all.

Teaching kids so they can fight the war... that’s the most disgusting things to do as an adult. I don’t want Kayla to bear that burden, so I guess I won’t let her teach this loud girl. Then Hannah and Daniel as well. And if the war isn’t over yet, even Lana.

I hope Albert can quickly destroy that cult.

For now, my goal is to be stronger in these two years. And then, I’ll be a surgeon and doctor, while teaching other doctors about all kind of healing methods and surgeries that I know from the future. If I spread them now, there will be more people that can be saved from the war.

After the dinner is over, the loud girl finally able to speak in lower volume and no longer shouting. Then she finally says why she’s here.

“I want you to be my teacher!”

“Okay. What’s your name and how old are you?” I asked.

“I’m Jewel! Fourteen years old!”

“Oh? She’s two years younger than us!” Angela said.

“I know, Angela. I can count. I can do math quite well.” I said to Angela.

“But you would sometime say that you forgot your age, right?”

“Yeah. But I can just use your age or Kayla’s for my age.”

Both Angela and Kayla said that they are already sixteen years old now. Since I forgot when my birthday is, why don’t I just make my age the same as the girls? And so, I have decided that I’m sixteen now.

“What do you want to learn from me?” I asked Jewel.

“Back then, you taught me how to keep cool in panic so I can make a good decision in any situation. I want to do that as well! Although I haven’t manifested my magic yet, I still want to learn another way to survive. Where to run away, how to ask for help, I want to learn those things so I can survive!” Jewel said.

That’s a nice way of thinking. I guess that time she asked for my help, and that message I gave her, makes a huge impact on her life.

“Alright. Tomorrow, you can come back here. Wear something easy to move.”

“Roy, you’re going to train her?” Kayla asked.

“Yes. I’ll teach her body first. Before anyone manifest their magic elements, and even after that as well, it’s our own body that will help us the most. I’ll train her body first tomorrow while giving her some tips to survive. If anyone wants to come as well, feel free to join.”

There might be other people who wanted to join the training. Physical training is important no matter how powerful your magic is. Even if you can destroy a mountain with magic, it’s useless if you are too slow to dodge enemy’s attack.

What I’m planning is just physical improvement by running in the forest with uneven terrain.

Kayla and the girls who are used to go on adventure and on a guild mission outside, might have better stamina. But that doesn’t mean they can run in the forest as much as they want. Running in an uneven terrain will drain your stamina faster.

I don’t need them to be faster. Of course if that’s possible, that would be great. What I want is for them to be more agile. That way, even if they can’t outrun their enemy, they can still dodge their attack

“I want to join!”

While I was thinking what kind of training will I give, Daniel shouted that he wanted to join as well.

“You can’t.”

“Why!? Why do you always leave me out all the time!?”

Daniel looks like he’s about to cry. He must be really lonely all this time I left him behind. I thought it’s a good idea to leave him to Ruby and Penny, but I was wrong. I need to be with him more.

“We will play tag tomorrow morning. And the training is in the afternoon. That’s when you have your nap, right?”

“What about training?” Daniel asked.

“The tag is the training.”

“Alright! Awesome!” Daniel shouted in joy.

“Heh! You said training, but isn’t it just playing?” Angela snorted. She must be thinking that I’m tricking Daniel.

But no. For children, they will learn more by playing. Playing tag will help his physical ability to grow.

So I started to explain and everyone is paying attention toward me when they noticed my serious expression.

“Hey, guys. Veronica said that there won’t be any big moves in the next ten years. That mean we probably won’t have any clues about them for the next ten years.”

Some of them noticed what I meant right away, but some others don’t.

Then I looked at Daniel who is still being happy knowing that he will play with me tomorrow.

“No! You want him to join!? You can’t!” Ruby who knows my intention, rejected that idea.

“I’m sorry, but with all the knowledge I have, it’s impossible for me to end everything.”

Since Jewel is here, we speak in a way that won’t make her finds out what’s going on. If she became my disciple, I can tell her what’s going on. But not now. So she just listened our conversation while having a confused expression.

“Ten years. In ten years, Daniel will be my age. Hannah will be twenty-one years old. Lana will be ten years old. I’m sorry, but we are too weak. Even back then, it still wasn’t over after thirty years. That is why I agree to be Jewel’s teacher.”

“Umm... what are we talking about?” Jewel can’t hold it anymore and asked about what I’m saying.

“I’ll tell you tomorrow. So, will you come tomorrow afternoon?”

“Yes!”

“Great. By the way, where do you live now?”

“Hmm? In a nearby inn.”

“If you want, you can move here and sleep in an empty room.”

“Really? That would be great! I’ll go back to the inn now and bring my stuffs here. You can continue with what you’re talking about.”

Jewel then leaves to grab her stuffs from the inn.

As for us, the mood is really bad at the realization that one day, Hannah, Daniel, and even Lana would have to fight.
