My Muscle System in the Mage World

"Wait, I have already told you everything you wanted to know," she said with despair, while biting her own nail. "Please don\'t kill me. I can do anything you want."

Aur just smiled as he looked at the beauty in front of him, begging without much emotion in his heart.

Seeing the smile, the girl felt like she had finally found a chance of survival.

"That\'s right, I will do anything you want," she said as she slowly started to undress in front of him, revealing her delicate tender skin that seemed to evoke a sense of pity.

"Stop," Aur coldly said as he came towards her, patting her silky hair.

"Can you be my little spy in the village?"

"Yes, yes, I can," she said in a choked voice between her sobs.

"Alright," Aur put down his axe. "Are you sure you can be my spy?"

"I will."

"What if you betray me?" Aur looked at her meaningfully.

"These…"

Aur shook his head and turned around, taking out a booklet.

"I might not look like it, but I have been seriously injured from fighting so much. Even killing your companion took a toll on me. If you suddenly betrayed me after entering the village, I would surely meet my demise."

Aur spoke slowly with his back to her.

Silence.

A chuckle escaped his lips as he slowly turned around, observing the ferocious expression of the woman as she charged at him with the axe in her hand.

"I gave you a chance," with a shrug from Aur, he slightly moved his hand and made a swiping motion towards her head.

Plop!

The woman\'s eyes lost their glow as she fell to the ground.

Aur slowly crouched down, closed her eyes, removed any traces of the battle and disposed of their corpse or at least tried his best to, and left the place.

Aur wasn\'t a good person, and probably never would be. He didn\'t have an excuse for the killings he made.

Nobody deserves to be killed. He wasn\'t a hypocrite who would think that killing these people was a good thing just because they did evil things.

But if you look at the world with the separation of good and evil, then everyone is evil in the world. We consume creatures to survive, whether it is meat or vegetables. They also have life. Do they deserve to be killed?

It is the law of nature to consume one another, so what right does someone have to say something is good or evil?

For example, Aiden ruined the lives of countless wizards by giving them lifespan-consuming spells and sending them on dangerous missions.

From the victims\' perspective, they were wronged, and he was a villain to them.

But for Aiden, he was doing it for the village.

After all, these wizards had pitiful talent and couldn\'t contribute much to the village otherwise.

So, in his perspective, there was nothing wrong with using some useless wizards for the betterment of the village.

Thinking of this, Aur shook his head.

"The village has called for the divine instigator, a tier three wizard, to investigate," Aur\'s heart couldn\'t calm down.

"Maybe I should leave the village?"

However, he soon shook his head. This wasn\'t an optimal solution since traversing the wilderness wasn\'t an easy task, even if high-tier beasts were all slain during the beast tide.

Unknowns are more terrifying than known ones!

"Let\'s join the first elder," he decisively thought.

As his figure vanished, a golden-haired man and a man with a heroic look appeared in the wilderness.

"Young master Maurice, why are we going to the wilderness?" asked the heroic-looking man.

"Shh…" Maurice looked meaningfully at the surroundings, a playful smile tugging at his lips. "Can you see it?"

"What?" William asked.

"There was a murder here, and it should have been recently done."

"What?" William was startled.

"Can I see the records of the village now?" Maurice turned around.

"Eh," William hurriedly followed him, "how about we investigate more here? Isn\'t there-"

"Are you stopping me?" Maurice said with a sneer on his face.

William paused, bowing his head. "No, young master Maurice."

"Good, then lead the way for me, or the village would bear the infamy for killing the tenth master," Maurice said, disgust evident in his eyes as he mentioned the tenth master.

"Then we will go," William muttered helplessly, while anger boiled in his heart. "This man doesn\'t give me any respect at all. My master had instructed not to let him see the village records, but now it seems to have become useless."

Meanwhile, Aur travelled to his relatively secluded and abandoned house, lost in thought.

"How do I contact them?"

While he was thinking, he walked out onto the streets, changing his disguise once again.

His eyes darted around as he sensed all the people and creatures within twenty kilometres of him become visible to him.

Though twenty kilometres was a considerable distance, in front of the village, it didn\'t even cover a fraction of the area.

He heard the mother\'s nagging, the cooker\'s cuckoo sound, the children\'s laughter and play, the hawkers hawking their goods, the family talking about their daughter\'s marriage, and a man silently refining a spell…

Wait, a spell?

Aur paused as he silently sensed the direction of the man and started to walk towards him unhesitatingly.

Soon, he reached a relatively crowded place, and an average wooden house with a thatched roof appeared in his vision.

Though the house seemed to be poor and not well-maintained, it was spacious enough to fit a dozen or so rooms.

Aur silently peeked inside after casting the Zephyr Cloak spell, which made him blend into the air.

There was a woman feeding her child, causing him to squint his eyes.

"What a great hideout," Aur couldn\'t help but praise silently.
