Chapter 577
Chapter 577: The Cult is Starting to Move
It has been three days since the end of the test against all ancient Aura users. I need to face Timmy, but I don’t know if I’m ready or not.
I have thought of everything that I can think of, but I don’t know if that’s enough or not. I think it’s not enough.
I have fought against a master level earth mage who was an Aura user. He was very strong. Although he was weak in close combat, his earth magic can cover for his weakness.
It took a lot of effort for me to break through his powerful defense. But Timmy should be much stronger than him. He has reached a stage beyond master level after all.
Even more, Timmy is also an Aura Master. He might not even need to use his magic to defeat me.
The last ancient Aura user I fought was a powerful Aura user. Although he was not a powerful mage, his Aura can give strong pressure similar to what Timmy showed to us back then. But it was still weaker than Timmy’s. Though I learned a lot.
A powerful mage and a powerful Aura Master. Maybe Timmy is even stronger than the Evil G.o.d. If I can defeat him, defeating the Evil G.o.d will be much easier.
.....
Well, the Evil G.o.d should be evil. He must have various other plans in mind. He could be trickier to fight than Timmy so I shouldn’t get my hope up.
For now, it’s the fight against Timmy that I need to think about. And that’s why I trained in Monsters World.
If I train in humans world, Timmy would be able to sense everything I do just by sensing it on the ground. Even if my feet never touch the ground, he might be able to sense it somewhat.
Every moves anyone make, will create vibration. If the ground sensed that vibration, Timmy would be able to sense it. That’s why I can only secretly train in Monsters World.
And the training partner I had with me is Angela. The strongest mage in our team who have reached even further strength after training with master level mages.
But it’s not a sparring. It’s just giving advice and guidance to each other.
“Roy, I can still sense your movement. While you’re running in the air, the air you kicked down pushed the ground and that tells me your location,” Angela said.
“You can sense that much? Then I guess running on air won’t work much in the fight against Timmy,” I said.
“Yeah. Although I only learned it after training with other master level mages, this is a useful skill. I can also sense the movement in the wind as well, so I can clearly sense you when you’re running in the air,” Angela said.
“I guess I will never be able to hide from you. Well, I need to train a little more before I’m ready to face Timmy. Though I don’t think Timmy is in a hurry. He’s in Varadis at the moment tasting different wines with the king,” I said.
This morning, before I went to Monsters World, Timmy asked if I’m going to fight him or not. And when I said that I won’t go, he instantly disappeared.
Few minutes later, Sonia appeared in front of me telling me that old man Henry was enjoying himself talking about different kind of wines with Timmy.
Timmy has gone all over the place in this continent. Tatrama, Consenza, Varadis, and Arturo. He has been to all four countries in this short time.
Being able to move underground in an instant to another country is a cheat. What if he choose to run away during our fight? I won’t be able to catch him ever.
Though I don’t think he’s that kind of person. If so, he would never asked me to fight him to death. And he would have accepted my offer to help me fight the cult.
After a few hours of training with Angela, I finally got it. A way to move in the air without being noticed by earth mage.

“Can you sense my movement?” I asked Angela.
“If I only have earth magic, I won’t notice your move at all. But since I can sense the wind movement, I know exactly where you are. I think Timmy would have some difficulties if you move like that,” Angela said.
That’s great. What I did was simple. Using air magic to cover the air that I kicked so the vibration won’t hit the ground.
Wind mage can sense the wind movement. And air mage is also similar in sensing air movement. After all, wind is just moving air.
But wind element and air element are different. Air mages can use wind magic, but it’s much weaker than even a beginner level magic. And wind mage can’t use air magic since air magic are mostly about changing the properties of the air.
If not for Victoria, I would have thought that air mages are useless because we can only use magic to breathe anywhere. But because of Victoria’s teaching, from the knowledge of her original world, I can become this strong
Although air magic and wind magic are different, there are still something in common that we have. Like sensing the movement of the air or wind. That’s why I asked Angela who can use four element to help me. She can use earth magic which is Timmy’s specialty, and wind magic as well.
The two of us entered Monsters World and move to a wide area to train together. Because of my training, her wind magic has slightly improved as she can sense the slightest vibration in the air. Though within a certain distance.
Still, because she has reached expert level, and she could reach master level anytime soon, the range where she can sense my move is so vast. Probably almost half the size of the whole capital of Tatrama.
As for me, I can only sense the movement in short range. I’m still just an advanced level air mage after all.
For now, I can finally move in the air without making vibration on the ground. This should be good enough to stall for time. And I have portal to use as well. I will use them well.
“Are we done?” Angela asked.
“Yeah. You can train with Shelia and Graham now. Sorry for taking your time. You want to train by yourself, right?” I asked.
“I did. But training with someone else is better than training by myself. Are you going home?” Angela asked.
“Not yet. I’ll be here for a little longer,” I replied before I left the place we were training by using portal back to the Monsters Village.
Training with Angela is not something that only I want. Everyone want to train with her as well. But the priority this time is for me and my familiars.
Previously, I would just let Shelia or Graham fight their opponent themselves without my help. Sometimes, those two will team-up to fight one opponent. But other than the time I fought Bearded Baldy, I never joined them in their battle. Though I only did that at that time because they lost.
But now, fighting Timmy one on one is stupid. I need to get Shelia, Graham, and even Victoria to be stronger before fighting him. Anyway, Victoria’s turn was before me, so it’s Shelia’s and Graham’s turn.
Victoria is still with them watching. And she probably will join with the other two later to improve their teamwork.
As for me, I entered a house in Monsters Village where I prepared my plan to fight Timmy.
In this place, it’s extremely messy with papers all over the place. They were all papers with writing of my plans against Timmy.
During the fight against the cult many times before, I had never been this prepared. But against Timmy, I need to prepare even more. And I keep all my plans here because I don’t want Timmy to find out about them.
I know very much how by now that I always overthink and my plans were not all good. So, I made more plans. And I will try to memorize them all so I don’t need to think too much during the fight. Good luck, my terrible memory.
But I don’t think that this is enough to beat Timmy, someone who was dubbed as the strongest in his time. Back when Aura users were still many.
And so, the only think I can do was to prepare more plans for unexpected situations. But if all of my plans not working, I can only improvise. Fighting without thinking. That’s something that I can only do a few times.
After hours of staying in Monsters World, we finally returns back home to the mansion in the capital which we have renovated. And we were greeted by Timmy and the four kings.
“What is it? Why is everyone here?” I asked.
“Roy, we will fight tomorrow. I won’t take a no,” Timmy said all of a sudden.
“Tomorrow? I’m not even ready yet!”
“Nothing I can do about that. I sensed many people gathering in the border between Arturo and Tatrama. None of you kings planned for a war between each other, right?” Timmy asked.
“What!? No! We still have the cult to fight so... Wait, many people are gathering? That must be where the cult are gathering. They must be preparing something,” Albert said.
“Exactly. I don’t know what it is, but it should be happening soon. That’s why you need to fight me tomorrow. Go get some sleep and enter the testing ground right away. Because you will be much busier after our battle ended,” Timmy said before he disappears and enter the testing ground by himself.
...I’d rather he’d be the one to send the kings back to their countries. He can bring other people when he’s entering underground to move. And if he brought the kings back to their countries, I won’t have to open portals myself.
Still, that’s not the point. The cult is gathering and preparing something. Our peaceful times ended.
And my peaceful time as well since the kings are using my house to discuss. I need to wait until their discussion is over so I can bring them home and rest.
