Chapter 6: Solving the Hidden Danger

Ahhhhh!

"Give me back my body!" he exclaimed as his aura flickered.

Williams rubbed his body against the ground, his hands tightly gripping his head in pain.

Soon, his nails reverted back to normal, his hunched back became straight again, and he reverted back to his normal teeth.

A relieved expression appeared on Williams' face before he fainted to the ground.

Aur coldly looked at all the events that had happened with a cold and uncaring gaze.

"I can use this guy in the future," Aur thought with a smirk as he went away with an uncaring expression.

Although he wanted to find the egg of this snake so he could sell it for a fortune in the future, he didn't want to disturb that guy. So, Aur simply walked away.

"How interesting," Aur disappeared from his position as he spirited towards the village at a terrifying speed.

"Oh, I forgot about this guy." Aur paused as he looked in a certain direction before running to that place, seeing the man with blue hair hurriedly running with terrified eyes.

Aur remembered him as the second goon of the person that the William guy hadn't killed yet.

"Guess I will do him a favor this time." He thought as he vanished from his position, changing his direction to the man and almost instantly reaching him.

"Who are you?" The goon was stunned when he saw a boy materialise out of thin air, falling to the floor with a "thud."

"You don't need to know," Aur simply said as he released his blood and Qi, covering himself in red fire, just like the man.

"This state is truly extraordinary. Not only does it give me a burst of strength, but it also improves your body as a whole, with even the five senses increased and even my healing is enhanced," Aur thought with some admiration, looking at his form before returning his gaze to the blue-haired man who fell to the floor.

He was trembling in fear with his teeth grinding and biting his own nails: His eyes revealing deep horror.

However, Aur's gaze was cold and uncaring as he slowly walked toward the boy.

"I don't want to die. Monster, his blood and qi are more powerful than the guard... I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die...."

He could hear the whispers the boy said to himself as he seemed to have become mad already.

Aur looked coldly at the man with an uncaring gaze as he swiftly ended the boy's life by simply strangling his neck until his eyes lost life.

"I need to get stronger if I want to live a peaceful life." He thought.

Aur wasn't a naive man who would think that he could get his life peaceful while being weak. With strength, he could achieve a peaceful life and eliminate those who obstruct it.

His eyes glinted with ruthlessness as he returned to the village.

"Well, I have done a favour for the boy. I will make that boy work to the bones in the future if I need him..." A sinister smile appeared on his face.

...

Soon, Aur saw the small buildings in the distance where children were playing, and people walked around.

It was neither bustling nor empty.

As he neared the village, he could already hear the faint noises of people screaming as they bargained.

"The daily life of an ordinary," Aur mused to himself as he greeted the guard at the gate.

However, the old guard was rather sleepy as he uncaringly nodded his head.

"Thank you, Uncle Tang," he said with a smile on his head as he entered the village.

"This kid will become a great man in the future," the old guard said as he looked at Aur, who was walking with a snake in his arm, as he closed his eyes again, sleeping peacefully.

Aur didn't directly enter his home; instead, he walked toward one of the tallest towers in the town.

The moment he saw the building in sight, he looked up to see the two small swords crossing each other diagonally, while there was a board written "THE MERCENARY". The building was three floors, but its length and breadth were huge, to say the least.

"Oh, it's Aur. What are you doing he..." the man paused, seeing the snake in his arms.

Aur just nodded his head as he greeted the man with a smile, "Uncle Sam, I am doing fine right now."

Sam was speechless as he looked at Aur deeply. "You are still young. Why did you go to the forest again? That is dangerous for you," he said with a harsh tone.

"Don't worry, uncle. I was only in the outer periphery where weak snakes like this live."

"That is only for us adults. You are still a kid who is turning almost eight years old. Don't die with greed without even knowing if you have the talent to become a wizard or not. You are turning eight tomorrow. Good luck."

Aur nodded his head with an understanding expression when he heard this.

"I hope you have a talent for becoming a wizard; otherwise, you might be like me, doing mercenary work to make a living." Sam said with a bitter expression on his face.

"Yes, uncle. About me going to the..."

"Don't worry. I won't tell Adam, or he might even kill me before doing anything to you," Sam said as he looked back.

"Thank you, uncle." Aur giggled with a smile on his face.

"I have never seen you, and you have never seen me."

"Of course, of course." A sly smile crept up on Aur's lips as he nodded his head in understanding as they both entered the building.

The building was surprisingly empty, contrary to his expectations. People were rarely present, sitting silently as they read papers in their seats, comfortable and at peace. Some were even drinking tea elegantly.
