The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 696: The Rescued Girls Will be My Employees

Finally, the oldest girl realized the situation and knelt in front of Albert in an instant.

“Greeting, Your Majesty!”

After the oldest girl knelt, the other four girls also realized that they are not in the proper manner to greet a king. They also quickly knelt in front of Albert and greet him.

“Alright, I accept your greeting. You can stand up now. We’re not in front of audience so you don’t need to mind your manner,” Albert said.

While the girls slowly standing, there’s an awkward silence among them.

They must be thinking of why are they in front of a king? Why did I pluck the explosive devices from their mouth? Why is everything happened?

They never thought that they are already in a safe place away from the cult. They have been in a dangerous situation their whole lives. They don’t understand the meaning of safety yet. They must be only thinking that they can survive if they follow our orders.

.....

While we let those girls sort out their thought, Kayla, Candy, and Wendy approached me.

“Roy, who are they and why are we all here?” Kayla asked me.

“Those girls said that they are forced to be used as entertainment for the cult members in Monsters World. I don’t know the truth yet, and since they have been in that world for a long time, I thought that it’s best to get Albert to meet them so we can learn a lot from them about the base in that world and probably even the cult itself,” I said.

Well, even the youngest girl in the group has been in that base longer than me who has just been there for a day.

“I returned right away because it was also the time that they are transporting people to and from this world with their summoners. For now, we’ll listen to what these girls know first before I explain everything. I brought you here since they are all girls and I feel like they can trust other girls more. From their experience in Monsters World, I thought about taking Sophie here. But when I opened the portal, she’s already asleep,” I said.

These girls were forced to be prostitutes. And maybe with Sophie around, they will feel better knowing that someone who used to be in the same industry to be able to live well. Though Sophie is sleeping now and I don’t want to wake her up.

“Sophie had a surgery to do last night. That’s why she’s asleep,” Candy said.

Yeah. With how few surgeon we have in Cassau, Sophie’s job will increase since she’s the best surgeon there. I hope she won’t force herself too much to cure the patients. She needs to care about herself as well.

“You’re going to ask those girls to be your spies and gather all the seemingly innocent people in that world together so you can transport all of them at once? I think that’s a good idea,” Kayla said.

“...I have never told you about that plan. But you quickly thought that is what I will do. As expected of you,” I said.

After we finished chatting for a bit, the girls have slowly calmed down. And the oldest girl stepped forward to be the representative for the girls. That’s also why I want someone who the others can trust to bring to Albert. It’s easier for things to progress this way.

“Umm... excuse me, but why are we here?” the girl asked.

“Well-”

“For interrogation. You should have been in that world for a while already but we don’t know if you know about the situation outside that world or not. We’re currently at war with the cult and going to destroy anything related to them. So you need to answer everything truthfully,” I said to interrupt Albert who was trying to explain it to them.

If I leave it to Albert right away, he would just say something and will take more time to explain. It’s best to be direct. And it’s to let them know their own status.

“You mean you saved us from the cult?!”

The girl who seem to be the youngest suddenly shouted.

“Well-”

“That depend on the truth behind your words. If you are still have a little bit of loyalty to the cult who sold you out to become prostitutes, I will kill you. If not, you are free,” I said after interrupting Albert again.

“...Roy, you know what? Sometimes, threatening people is not the answer,” Albert said.

“Yeah, yeah. Today I was supposed to investigate things but I spend it mostly on resting. I’m pissed because I just found a way where I don’t need to kill everyone right away,” I said.

“...Seems like your decision to ask him to bring some of you home was a correct one if you want to survive. Now, please take a seat and let us begin,” Albert said to the girls.

The interrogation begun. But it’s more like interview.

Kayla and I took our seats as well while Candy and Wendy stood behind Albert with Mustache and acting as Albert’s guard.

...No, Candy and Wendy don’t have mustache. I mean that Mustache is here as well as Albert’s guard.

As they said before, the girls were forced to be there because their parents were with the cult. The parents thought that their daughters actually living well, but they are actually lived a terrible lives. The parents didn’t know about it.

And when they knew, some of them thought that the girls are doing a favor to the Evil God and let them be. But some actually tried to get their daughters back. I guess not all parents are bad.

And in the end, the parents who tried to get their daughters back were killed. These girls realized that after they talked about it with other girls from different establishment. That there are some customers who proudly said that they killed traitors and even talking about those so-called traitors in full detail including their name and their home address.

“Whoa, that’s bad. Really bad. But that’s good. Does it mean that there’s a whole community of victims of the cult in that base? Is that really it?” I asked.

“Well, I guess you can put it that way. We talked to others in different establishment, and the stories spread. But I don’t think any of the men knows about it. Some were managed to leave that base, but they are probably being used as slaves by the men who brings them out. And we are desperate to escape because of the vampires’ attack,” the oldest girl said.

I looked at Albert and see that he didn’t react at all. All the things that the girls are saying were true. There were no lies.

“Then, if I want you to return and contact those other girls, can you do that? We want to destroy anything related to the cult without harming as many innocent people as possible. We need a spy to gather as many information as possible while making sure that they can save as many innocent people as possible. Are you willing to do it?” Albert asked.

“...Does it mean you trust us?” the oldest girl asked.

“Yeah. That guy over there won’t kill you anymore. And we don’t want to kill too many innocent people as possible, so those who are willing need to return back to that world and be our spies,” Albert said.

The girls are so happy that they started crying tears of joy. Knowing that they are safe from the cult.

And then the oldest girl stand up from her seat after those girls discussed for a bit.

“Then I will do it. If I do it, the others will trust me more. Isn’t that why he asked me to come?” she said.

“Good. As for the others... you need somewhere to stay. Even if you’re free, you’re orphans and don’t have jobs. If we leave you be, you will just end up as prostitutes again. Now, what should we do?”Albert said as he looked at me. He wants me to be the one to decide the other four girls’ fate.

“Don’t worry about it. Roy has said that they will be working at the clothing store. Just look at them. They are all beautiful. And I have many clothes I want them to wear. As for lodging, there’s an empty room at the store where we can set as shared bedroom for them. it’s not hard,” Victoria said.

I guess I did say that they will work at my clothing store. Well, that won’t be much problem. And having more beautiful girls advertising the store, there will be more profit in the future as well. And I can open more branches in the future.

Even Lynn wanted the clothing store to open in her country. It’s just another way for me to get richer. I won’t object at all.

“Well, I guess I’ll clean up the room for them to use first. You can stay here for a while and have a chat with the king. I’ll be back later,” I said.

It took no time for me to clean the place and also buy some beds to the store. And I told the store manager that there will be some new workers come.

And if I save those other girls in Monsters World as well, I might be able to get more workers. Opening multiple brances at once won’t be impossible then. That’s great.
