Chapter 644: Now I’m Angry

Now, what should I do?

There are many people in this building that can be used as hostages. And this is a building where they gather people who is governing this country. If any of the people here die, there will be backlash.

Sigh... it will be much easier if this is a kingdom. As long as the king is alive, the kingdom will still have people who obey him. Whether by choice or forced to do it.

But this is not a kingdom. The president will change after a few years, and everyone in this building is important for the future of the country. Well, that’s the same as kingdom. But at least if the king is still alive, everything can be fixed by him.

Although this country is being lead by a president, she’s not alone in governing this country. They need majority vote to decide what to do. Unlike a king that can change everything to his will.

Ah! It’s troublesome thinking about such things! And I don’t even know if what I’m thinking is right or not! This is difficult. Let’s just take care of the easy stuffs first.

Since I don’t think that woman in black will return here when she and most members of the cult are preparing to attack the circus, I’ll just kill everyone here whom I deemed as members of the cult. Those who are watching everyone’s movement.

.....

As for those who might end up involved, I’ll probably just bring them to the circus and let Yuria explains.

And soon after, I found a staff acting suspiciously. She’s not doing her job. Unless her job is patrolling the building. But she’s not a security guard. So I killed her.

No, I didn’t kill anyone mindlessly. I know that she talked with the woman in black after they brought me to the jail. Those are my targets here.

I killed her with a punch that shatter her ribs and destroy her internal organs while making sure that she won’t spill any blood. This is a stealth mission. Not only I will kill all my enemies without them knowing my existence, I will also kill them all without shedding blood. Neither mine nor theirs.

After killing the staff, I quickly brought her to the jail and put her next to the corpse of the creepy woman who tried to rape me. I’ll take care of them all later. There are still more enemies here.

With my speed, it only take a few seconds to do that, and find another target. I keep moving around so much but it didn’t take long. What an amazing day to be an Aura Master.

Now, all the members of the cult who are keeping watch from the outside have died by my hand. The rest are in the same room with other people. But I can take care of them without hurting the real staffs of the office.

Using air magic, I make everyone in a room sleep. Except for the expert level mages who can endure my air magic.

As expected, all members of the cult here are expert level mages. Except for a few whom I witnessed before talking with someone close to the woman in black. They have fallen into deep sleep.

I quickly entered the room, and kill the cult members. Though there are two other expert level mages whom I didn’t know whether they are members of the cult or not. So I just opened a portal to the circus and bring them to Yuria.

“Yuria, I’m killing all the cult members in the building. As for the rest that I don’t know if they are with the cult or not, I will bring them all to you. You can decide what to do with them,” I said to Yuria.

The two confused expert level mages looked at their president. If they can prove that they are not related to the cult, they will keep their lives.

Now that Victoria has explained everything to Shirley and the others, I brought her with me and go to the next room. Though I have no plan in using her as weapon soon.

As for the sleeping office staffs, they are safe in the office. Yuria will explain everything to them after it’s all over. It will take a few hours until they finally wake up.

Now, let’s go to the next room.

In less than fifteen minutes, while the cult members are still preparing to attack the circus, I have killed all the cult members in the building.

“Is that everyone? You even brought the other expert level mages to the tent. What will you do to them?” Victoria asked me after I stopped killing.

“If they are with the cult, Shirley can stop them if they try to do something funny. If they are not with the cult, I hope Yuria can convince them to join us. They’re all expert level mages after all. Having them with us will boost our strength even more,” I replied.

Next, I looked around the surrounding place. It has started to get dark and people are going back to their homes. Except for the cult members who are gathering near the circus.

What about the gatekeepers then? The two who have recently getting along well with us. Or at least some of us whom they are interested in. One is interested to get closer to Burnes, and the other is interested with the strongmen.

Well, Burnes and the other guy should have make an attempt to get closer to them first. They are agents after all. And they should have known about the gatekeepers’ affiliation. I hope they are with us as well.

“The city seems safe. As expected, they have told the citizens to not visit the circus. That’s why no one is leaving their house,” I said after observing the city.

Even in the slum or red-light district, there are less people there. The nodding guy is also seem to be going to the circus. I thought you were my friend. A friend I never talked with.

...Actually, that might be the reason why he joined the cult. I never tried to get closer to him. Well, whatever. It’s been done. I will at least kill him.

Though if he came to the circus, he would realize that Shirley is the princess. Even more if he recognize Angela. Though Angela is not there yet. Is Emilia fighting Angela and tries to make her busy? Maybe that’s the case.

“Let’s go back to the circus. There’s only the fight there left,” I said.

We then returned back to the circus. Not using portal. I summoned Ray and fly to the sky as I watched the cult members from the sky, and entered the tent without them knowing.

“Welcome back, Roy. Though I didn’t expect you to bring back so many people,” Burnes said after I entered the tent.

“They are expert level mages after all. It would be great if they join us. So, what about them?” I asked.

“Only a few of them haven’t proven themselves to not be members of the cult. We just put the Magic Restricting Collars on them and tied them up for now. How about the enemies?” Burnes asked.

“There are quite a few of them. Around one hundred and fifty of them, I guess.”

“No! That’s many! Not few!” Patricia shouted.

“Don’t worry about it. Other than your granddaughter, I don’t think there’s anyone among them who can give us trouble,” I said calmly.

Then, I checked on everyone if they are ready. And when I see the enemies make their move, I told them to leave the tent. Leaving behind only the restrained office staffs. The other air mage here used air magic I taught on them so they will sleep. And once I confirmed that all of them are sleeping, we leave the tent. With me still riding on Ray’s back.

The approaching cult members stopped when they are in front of us. We are completely surrounded, but they haven’t shown their intention to attack us yet.

And with the woman in black in the lead, she was surprised that Patricia, Yuria, and I were here without them knowing.

“Surprised? Sorry to say this, but this is actually our plan to weed out all the cult members here. And you! It’s been a while. I don’t know your name but we went to the same school together.”

After I greeted the woman in black, I pointed my finger to the nodding guy. Victoria, Shirley, and the others were shocked to see that I know someone. And we even attended the same school together with Angela and Kayla, and we’re all being taught by Wendy.

“You... you’re the one who was always together with Angela and Kayla. I was right when I heard her name here. So it was her indeed. She has become much stronger than master level mage. What a surprise. And that one next to you, she’s Princess Shirley, right? I watched her making a speech after the stampede,” The nodding guy said.

“I was so shocked that you, someone who witnessed that stampede caused by the cult, to join the cult yourself. What a shame that I have to kill my former classmate,” I said.

“You are just someone who can summon a slime. No wonder you became a clown. It suits you,” the nodding guy said.

“Hey, don’t say that! Calling him a clown is a compliment to him!” one of the circus members shouted.

Oops. I shouldn’t be happy right now.

“I don’t care about what you have done. I joined these people because of my own decision. And we have a special present for you!”

After the nodding guy said that, I can see a group of mages are flying here. Including Emilia.

And with them, I can see an injured and unconscious Angela whose hand is restrained by the same handcuff that stopped Patricia.

Oh, no. Now I’m angry.
