Chapter 649: Where They Collect Wind Element Magic Stones

Rygis was in chaos for a while when Yuria announced about the danger of the cult. It took a while until everything calmed down,so the show ended up being delayed again. We want to perform at least once more before we continue to the next city. Another city that belong to Rygis.

And so, while everyone is busy, I move alone toward the other cities in Rygis. There is only one other city in Rygis country that we decided to perform at. But I also need to check the other city.

I move alone so we can investigate whether those cities have been influenced by the cult or not. Of course I will use portal to get some agents to investigate.

Though this is great. There are many expert level mages. All of them are women. Though that’s to be expected.

Yuria said that she wanted to change the citizen’s view of men. That’s the reason why she wanted to be the president. She wanted to change her country.

And so, even though most men are no longer slaves, they are still unable to cultivate as their resources are still limited. Many women still don’t like about this change. But at least it has slowly changing.

Still, the men, even though they should be equal to women now, they are still afraid to do many things. And they still ended up being protected by women so other women won’t assault them. That’s okay though.

.....

In other cities, there are also slum area as well. And while the agents, of which all of them are female, are investigating the city, I’ll be checking on the slum and see any suspicious movement.

Although there was no one with explosive devices in their mouth, because of my experience, I can tell which one is members of the cult or not.

Well, not really. I was just found some suspicious people whom I assume to be from the cult, and follow them until they revealed themselves. Though how I found them to be suspicious was from my experience.

My job was over quickly. But the agents will still investigate those cities.

Now, we can only wait while the country is restored. Seems like some cult members have high position in the country as well. That’s why it will take some time until we can officially receive the permit for our show. And we can only do some light street performance while waiting and to advertise our circus as well to those who haven’t watched it.

Well, if there are anyone who have watched us and still wanted to go, that’s fine. That means I’m just that good.

Now, what should I do?

Oh, right! There’s one thing that made me curious about Rygis.

Too many expert level mages. Most of them are wind element expert level mages. And there should be a place where they can get the wind magic stones. I need to check that place out.

When Yuria was discussing something with Shirley in the office, I entered the office.

“Roy, what is it?” Shirley asked.

“Well, I just remember about the wind element magic stones. I want to see where the are being mined and see if that place is good for cultivating as well for wind mages. Shirley, if you’re free, we should check the place together,” I said.

“Yeah, that’s what I want to discuss with Yuria as well. Before that, can you use portal outside the city? My brother has sent a messenger to this country for an official meeting. If you can use portal, the messenger can get there sooner. You also need to bring the carriage as well to show that a messenger from another country is coming,” Shirley said.

“Sure. Be back in a second,” I said before leaving with portal.

Now, I don’t need to care about other people watching me using portal. Yuria said that all the expert level mages have agreed to fight the cult. They need to know not to mess with me like the cult members did.

Yuria has informed them that I’m the one they shouldn’t make an enemy of. Though I don’t know how many people believe her.

Well, even if there’s someone trying to challenge me, that’s fine. I can accept some challenges when I’m free. Though I hope they won’t risk their lives. Because I would kill them if they do. Attacking me with their lives at stake means they are enemies.

Now that I’m outside of the city, I opened a portal to where the messenger should be. I asked Sonia to where the messenger is and opened a portal to see that it was Sara who came.

“You’re the messenger?” I asked.

“Yes. His majesty wants someone strong enough with good reputation as a messenger. This way, when someone asked about me, they will know who I m from the competition. Though I don’t think anyone here would know me. And I can just say that his majesty picked me to be a member of his royal guard. Though just Miguel alone is enough to be his guard,” Sara said.

“Who is Miguel?” I asked.

“...Mustache. You need to remember his name,” Sara said.

Oh, right. That’s the name other people called Mustache with. Why didn’t he just pick a name instead of having two?

“Are you still teaching though?” I asked Sara.

“...His majesty increased my rank. Now, I’m a noble. As for teaching, I let someone do it. I have taught them everything I learned from you,” she said.

“Whoa, you’re a noble now? Congratulation!” I said.

“...I became a noble for a while already. You’re the only one who doesn’t know. Though I never told you so it’s partially my fault,” Sara said.

Is that why she rarely came to my place? She’s a noble now so she has her own house, right? A mansion perhaps?

“Ah, well. Anyway, you can meet Yuria now. Just go forward and one of the gatekeeper should guide you,” I said.

“...As expected, you are not interested at all,” Sara said in low tone.

Why should I be interested? Though it’s good that she raise up in life. That’s all I care. As long as she’s doing fine, that’s all that matter. As for becoming a part of nobility, I’m friend with the royalty. I’m not jealous at all.

While Sara moves with her carriage, I used portal to Yuria’s office again.

“Roy, Yuria has told us where they mine the wind element magic stones. And Patricia will be with us as our guide,” Shirley said.

“Okay. So, where it is?” I asked Patricia who is already there in the office.

“It’s over that way if we’re going straight. It’s at the peak of that Gale Mountain where the wind never stop,” Patricia said.

Gale Mountain? Nice naming sense. Though it’s probably not Patricia who came up with that. Maybe someone in the distant past.

“Hmm... there’s no Blobby near there and I can’t use portal. I guess we’ll just fly there,” I said.

“Then let’s go. Yuria, I’ll talk to you later,” Shirley said as she jumped from the window.

“...Is it some sort of rule that powerful people prefer to jump from the window instead of leaving through the front door like normal people?” Yuria asked as she saw Patricia also jump out of the window after Shirley.

“It’s just that we are fine jumping from this height. And it’s faster this way. Maybe you should just install a door instead of a window. Maybe a balcony? That seems better than just a door. Though that is a bad suggestion. If there’s a balcony, not only we can enter and leave as we please, the enemy can do that as well. But as long as you have Patricia, you don’t have to worry about enemies,” I said.

“Unless the cult are far stronger than expected,” Yuria said.

“Don’t worry about it. Shirley or some other wind mages from our side can give her instruction on how to get stronger without raising your level. Patricia can get stronger and you can be at ease. You and the presidents after you. Though that will only happen if Patricia chooses to stay here even after you leave,” I said.

“Right... We also need to think about the future as well. I’ll be busy for a little longer, but if it’s about the circus, you are free to perform or leave whenever you want. Since it’s you, you can come whenever you want, right?” Yuria said.

“I’ll tell Thomas about it. He’s the real leader of the circus. Though he’s just a normal civilian. Well, those two have fly so far. I will follow them now. Bye.”

I bid my farewell to Yuria, and then contacted Sonia to tell Thomas that he’s free to set the show whenever he wants.

Running in the air as an Aura Master, I caught up with Shirley in no time. I guess even if she’s a strong wind mage, she’s still slower compared to a master level mage.

When I’m passing her, I summoned Ray for her to ride on. Shirley understood my intention and jumped on Ray’s back after I summoned him.

As for me, I want to test my speed against a master level mage. So when I passed Patricia, I told her that we’re going to race to the Gale Mountain.

And I ended up losing. Patricia arrives there after Ray. I guess I still need to train. If the Evil God is a wind mage, I won’t be able to catch up with him like this.
