Chapter 279: Sheep Mentality, Aur encounters Maurice



"That genius we called Hero Aur."

"Eh, what happened to him?" the man asked.

"He betrayed the village," the first man said with a smile on his face.

"Betrayed!?" the second man\'s voice froze as he choked on his tea.

The first man hurriedly patted the second man\'s back, helping him cough out the tea that had gone into his nostrils.

"Be careful," he said.

"*hic* *hic* thanks," the man replied, still in disbelief. "What did you say again? Aur betrayed the village?"

"Yes, it\'s information obtained from the inner area."

"These can\'t be true," the man said in disbelief.

"Hahaha, your role model was Elder Aur, but now he has just become a dog who will be entirely chased by the village. I have always disliked his wild nature. How could someone be so perfect? He holds an evil heart," hearing these conversations another person laughed.

"Truly, I have been wronged. That Aur is nothing but a beast who has betrayed the village. Where is his conscience? If his family wasn\'t dead, I would have gone to kill them myself," the second man said with righteousness, believing that everything he said was right.

The other person nodded in agreement. "You are right, brothers and sisters. Aur is nothing but a villain."

The entire inn erupted in shouts and curses, like a chain reaction.

Just then, they noticed a man wearing a cloak that covered his face, staying silently in the corner.

The cloaked man looked at the person and nodded his head. "You are right, Aur is nothing but a beast. He should be punished by the gods," he said before leisurely starting to eat his fried chicken legs with a green chili sauce.

"True," the man smiled, satisfied, and walked back to his seat.

"How interesting," an amused glint flashed in the cloaked man\'s eyes as he listened.

Naturally, the cloaked man was Aur, who had walked outside to assess the situation of the village.

He didn\'t care about what these people thought of him. The only people he cared about were already dead. Now, he truly didn\'t care about anyone in this world.

Aur thought to himself that these people would turn to dust soon anyway, so what was the point of caring about what they thought?

He had left the village, and their opinions were temporary.

If he were still in the village, then reputation would have mattered more, as it equaled strength. However, now he has moved on.

A person\'s heart was fickle, and they had a sheep-like mentality as they wanted to blend with the crowd and not have their own opinion, just the ones they have heard.

He might have been like them with a sheep mentality, but his mind and will had been strengthened because he was an orphan in his previous life, reaching the title of the strongest fighter.

The hardships he went through were terrifying, to say the least.

But his progress wasn\'t good since the news from the outer area traveled very late, and some of the important information didn\'t reach him.

Aur racked his brain. If he truly wanted to know the situation of the village, he needed to go to the inner area. However, this part was covered by a huge wall.

Although with his strength, leaping through it wasn\'t a problem, if he did that, there was a high chance of being found by Tier Two wizards.

If he were encircled at that time, even if he used the killer move combined with his physique, it would be difficult to get out.

Noah, a Tier Three wizard, could definitely kill him or even capture him alive. Risking his own life for some information was not worth it. So, he thought of another solution until then.

His eyes grew erratic as he went into deep thought. Finally, he stood up and left the place, leaving a single low-grade mana crystal behind.

Aur\'s black cloak fluttered with the wind as his figure disappeared from the place.

"Young master Maurice, what\'s wrong?" William asked, seeing Maurice pause.

Maurice shook his head. "Nothing, let\'s go," he said, and they left the place.

"Did someone pass by here? I seemed to have sensed someone," Maurice said, his pupil flickering.

Aur, who was hiding on the rooftop, narrowed his eyes.

"Who is that guy?" he looked at the fleeting back of the person. If he was careless, the guy would have sensed him directly.

Since William was willing to be his guide, the identity of the person was not simple.

Not only that, Aur could feel a slight threat emanating from his body, not his, but something he should have carried.

"I need to know the current situation," Aur felt a sense of urgency, and his figure disappeared again.

Aur went to the wilderness and patiently waited for hours quietly, waiting like a fisherman.

In just a few hours, his patience bore fruit as he spotted people with the academy emblem dangling from their waist coming out to hunt with an arrogant expression.

"The fish have finally come," he said to himself. Suddenly, he moved directly, appearing in front of the group of eight.

The eight people immediately became frightened when they saw him. "Who are you?" the leader, a girl, shouted with a frown on her face.

Aur didn\'t say much and directly took action. His five fingers retracted to form a fist, and he punched lightly.

The punch seemed simple, and they were quite a distance away from the punch, but the wind seemed to have torn, and a gale appeared, directly reaching them.

Some of the people reacted and immediately conjured up a defense spell and tried to dodge.

Under the power of the gale and wind produced by Aur\'s fist, all the people were instantly torn apart mercilessly.

The only remaining individual was the leading girl, whose eyes revealed deep fear as she looked at him.

The artifact she had been holding fell to the ground, shattering to pieces.

"Well, girl, I have some questions for you," Aur spoke in a hoarse tone, causing the girl to tremble but nod her head, driven strongly by her survival instinct.
