It has been two days since I left that dungeon. I have been spending my ti trying to use the wand I recently gotten, but there was no progress. Maybe it's because I have no aptitude to the elent of this wand.
Maybe I'm right that this is an earth elent magic wand. I'll just keep it for now and when I return to Cassau, I'll give it to Sam so her appraiser can appraise it. If it's an earth elent wand like I thought, then it's better if I give it to Kayla. As for Angela, she already has a lot of attack magic in her arsenal.
Right now, I'm in Hirugas city. My main goal for entering this city? It's to buy a new pair of shoes. Even though I can cover my feet with Aura, being barefooted all the ti is no good. Many kind of illness can happen just by walking barefooted in the wild. That's what I learned as a doctor.
About this city I'm in… it's one of the cities that will be attacked by a stampede along with lk. That's why I've seen several people I know. They are all the winners of the audition who won Albert's trust. There are also several people who has exploding devices in their mouth, but I won't make any move since Albert's agents are already here.
But I can still help a bit. I'll just grab one of Albert's n and tell him I'm Ninja, then I will point my fingers at those who have explosive devices inside their mouth. That's good enough.
Good thing I tried to morize people's faces. If it was in the past, I won't bother rembering other people's faces other than those I et most, or so famous people. Just like how I don't rember the face of the nodding guy. Is he well? Is he nodding at soone else? Does he not rember ? I hope you're doing well, nodding guy. Unless you're secretly mber of the cult. If you are, please die.
I went into a shop and buy a nice pair of boots. It feels better than my last one. As for its color, it doesn't matter since it will be mud-colored soon.
After buying a pair of boots and equip them right away, I left the store and look for a face I know. I then grabbed one audition winner and point him the mbers of the cults nearby.
"Hey, you!"
"Hmm? Who are you and what do you want?" The man asked.
"I'm Ninja. You've seen at the audition." I whispered to him so no one can hear.
"You're Ninja? But what audition?"
"For you, it's an interview. But for and Albert, we called it audition. I wear a mask that day so it's normal for you to not know ."
"Oh, you're Ninja. I never thought that you are so young. Can I help you?"
The man's attitude changed after I told him who I was. Albert or Candy should have tell the winners about the fact that I'm Albert's friend and the one who inform him about the cult. But they never told the winners about coming from the future.
"I'm leaving this city right now and I want you to accompany to the gate so I can show you so people who belong to the cult. I'll left the decision on what to do with them to you."
I have finished taking care of my business in this city. I just need to buy a pair of boots, and so supply for the rest of my journey. As for resting, I can do that in the wild as long as I find a good location. I don't need to waste my ti staying at an inn for that.
"Are you busy today?" I asked
"Not at all. I'm here as a hunter and I just finished my request today. I'll follow you to the gate. By the way, in case you forgotten my na, its…"
"No need. It's already difficult for to rember your face. I'll just end up forgetting about your na. And it's not like we'll et again in the future."
"…okay"
He seems dejected when I said I don't need an introduction. Well, that's fine. After all, in case we et again in the future, I might have forgotten your face.
"I hope your mory is better than mine since I don't want to repeat if again. Let's go! By the way, the old man you speak to before is one of them."
"What?! So our guess is right."
He seems surprised when he heard about it. But saying that their guesses is correct ant that he was just trying to get so info from the old man.
"I'll tell you about everyone with explosive devices inside their mouth within our sight so there might be so people that I missed."
"So you really do have a see-through vision! I'm so envious of your ability! I thought that Candy was just speak nonsense. By the way, I heard that she's your girlfriend now. Is that true?"
"Yeah she is. Why?"
"Nothing. Just many n crying after hearing that. Both Candy and Wendy are the goddesses in the agency, you know?"
"I see. Well, just don't try to flirt with her or I will co to you, okay? And the two girls who were just passing us are mbers of the cult."
I continued pointing the people who are mbers of the cult.
"Are you in a hurry? If not, I can pretend to show you around the city while you tell all the mbers of the cult we passed. That way, we will find most of their mbers in this city." The man suggested to walk around the city.
"Sure. Let's do it. And that man with one eye is also a mber."
The man whose na I don't know took around the city while I told him about all the mbers of the cult I find.
"That girl with a peg leg is a mber."
"That bearded auntie is a mber."
"That one who ate banana by eating it from the middle first is a mber. You know from how she ate that banana. She's totally evil."
"That man wearing a thong is a mber. Soti I wish I'm blind."
"That granny selling flowers is a mber. But be careful because she has the strongest muscle I've ever seen other than and so people I have t. I think she could be in the top ten. Scary…"
"That hooded man sitting on the park whose face can't be seen but actually is crying at the mont, he's a mber of the cult. He must have stubbed his toe from how his toenail broke. That's why you should always pick a good boots."
I pointed at everyone who has explosive device inside their mouth to the man I'm with.
"…umm, thank you for telling but I think so comnts are unnecessary. I an so of them are sothing that only you can see."
"You think being able to see-through objects is a blessing? Think again. Still envious of this?"
I still rember how he said that he's envious of this vision. Let's tell him how much of a curse this ability is. Although most of the ti it's a blessing, the things I've seen… is too much for a re mortal.
"I guess that's all I've seen over here. There are so people inside buildings that haven't co out so you need to judge them properly whether they are from the cult or not. And so far I can tell if soone is a mber of the cult by looking inside their mouth, but I believe there are other mbers who doesn't have them inside their mouth. My guess is that they are the higher-ups of the cult." I explained.
"I see. I'll keep that in mind."
"Do you think the plan will work? Letting the stampede happen and you can kill all the monsters while evacuating all the citizens?" I asked the man.
Although it was Albert's plan and I had already let him do whatever he want, I'm still worried about letting the stampede happen.
"Yes. Most of the agents here works as hunters. We also take care of all powerful monsters nearby so when the stampede happen, there will only be weak monsters that even E-rank hunter can defeat. Let's hope the reinforcent his majesty will get us to help evacuate the citizens are capable."
"Don't worry about it. If they are still training after I left them, and I believe that they are, evacuating the citizens is sothing easy for them. Albert said that he will et them and auditioned them soon. As for you, the monsters and the citizens are taken care of, but be careful of the mber of the cult. I suggest so of you will pretend as a thief to rob and kill those people. Pretend you're stealing, but your main goal is to kill them. And try to aim for a normal criminal as well even if they are not from the cult. That way, it won't make them think that we are aiming for them." I suggested an idea for him.
"That sounds like a good idea. I'll discuss it with the one in charge of this area. But that an we will lack manpower if we do everything." The man seems pondering about it.
"Well, that was just a suggestion. Whether you do it or not, I'll leave the decision to you guys. I'll be leaving now. Take care."
I shook my hand with the audition winner whose na I don't rember and leave the city.
Now my next destination is ho. Let's take another detour and see what I can obtain. I hope I can find a Pear-y Fruit for Lina. And for in case I reached Advanced level.
