Chapter 204: Choice

Revealing the circumstances of the target, I explained them how he has the possibility of awakening his latent mana flow and convert into a full-fledged magician. Ishana didn't know about this stuff while Yami has a little bit knowledge of it but since he hasn't seen any kind of things about it, he didn't really know much apart from the info he knows.

"So I want to ask the two of you for your answers. We can secretly wipe his memory involving this world and his experiences prior to his transportation to this world before we can seal his awakening, or we can just let him do the ultimate choice."

"This is tricky for me... hmmm..." Ishana tilt her head, not knowing what to choose.

"Becoming a magician is an honor. However, we should know if he was a person who will use magic for the good and safety of the people or he will use the magic for darkness and for his own gains. Other than that, I am going to let him choose what he wanted to do," Yami said.

"How can you be so sure if he will use magic for good or for evil?" I asked. There are many instances of that where a person promises to do good only to break it.

"I can detect lies and deepest desires of a person. If he ever has those thoughts, I can just knock him out and we can erase everything," Ishana smiled.

"Oooh!" Blue is quite impressed all of a sudden.

"Huh? Why are you reacting like you are very impressed right now?"

"Because I AM IMPRESSED! Lie detector magic is a rare magic only compatible to certain individuals. It is not a common magic trait to learn so easily and most of the time, this can onlt be obtained randomly after that person's birth. It is pretty rare for someone who is not born with it to learn it in other methods. Even you cannot learn this as I already scanned you if you are compatible to that magic and the results are negative."

Okay, it doesn't matter much to me but I can't deny that the lie detector would be really helpful especially in situations like this.

"So that means you are going to go in our choice?" Yami asked.

"I can't choose at all and it is a pain choosing things like that as there are more side of the coin but since the majority wins, I will not object either."

Hearing their answers, it is time to get the guy up and listen to his answer. Opening the tent, he has already risen from the futon and currently examining his body on the mirror, checking for his wounds and some scratches perhaps.

"Hey man, looks like you got your needed rest as much as you can. How are you feeling right now?"

Although he looked gloomy, he didn't show much emotion and answered me while shaking his head.

"There are some things I felt to be somewhat different than usual and the headache in my head is not that bad compared when I didn't get any rest. My body is fine now."

"Well, that isn't so bad. Anyways, I am calling you since we will be eating dinner later, and you also needed the breath of fresh air. You can't just keep yourself inside this tent. Besides, we have something to discuss too."

"Alright. I will be out for a few minutes."

I nodded and left him inside his tent. He needed some alone time for now. For the time being, it is time for me to start cooking.

Since this will be a meat fest, I decided to summon all of my familiars out. Even the little tiger who resides in my summoning space also went out but it only did thay before sleeping again.

Yuri, Yuto and Inari-sama are happy they are out once in this world. Aria who was playing with Kon is immediately captivated to see Inari-sama that she immediately stopped playing and went to her with glowing eyes.

"Damn, so those rumors aren't just baseless rumors? He has Inari-sama as one of his familiars?" Yami was indeed surprised seeing Inari-sama came out. Contrary to his reaction, Ishana is not and smugly looked at Yami.

"Haha, you should believe things if I tell you to do so. I don't just collect rumors just because they were interesting but because they are facts and anyone should know," Ishana flexes her camera that she brought along.

"If I didn't see it with my own eyes, it will remain as a baseless rumor."

With Yuri and Yuto helping me set up the fire, I pulled out the meat and took out some of the skewers I prepared beforehand in case things like barbecue would come in our situation.While preparing for the meat, the guy from earlier left the tent and went to the bonfire. He was surprised when he saw all the foxes and the others sitting in the bonfire.

"Yo, you finally came, come here and sit with them," I said and pointed on the seat where Ishana and Yami are sitting. Ishana happily her side on the log they were currently sitting on while waving for the guy to agreed.

"Um... who are these people?" he asked as he was unsure what is happening as he was so sure that the camp is so quiet than usual, only to hear the noisy activity of everyone.

"These are my companions. Those two will introduce themselves so get to know them first before asking me, I still have to prepare our dinner."

He nodded and they strike conversation. With Ishana and Yami's questions along with their capabilities to keep the conversation going, he answered many of our questions and in turn, I know something on him. His name is Kyouya and as expected, he was also one of the guys who were accidentally pulled to another world and he was not one of the heroes. He explained his experiences and things done when he was transported and we know what happened to him and by the time the meat skewers are done, his flashback retelling also finished.

"So your experience in this world is just utter sh*t, huh?" I said to him as I sit down to the stump near the bonfire for me to check the meat.

"I don't want to remember much about it. My body seems to still remember the things that happened when I was tortured."

"Do you want revenge?" Yami asked. I was surprised to hear that from Yami to ask preemptively about it. I was going to ask him about it once he gets to calm down but I don't think I will be able to do that with Yami doing it first.

"Revenge? Although I wanted to do so, I don't want to drown in revenge. Besides, I am a normal human and competing against them will not be good idea. If I provoke them, it was like asking myself to them for me to be sent to my final resting place."

"What if we tell you that right now, you are in the middle of a crossroad where choosing the first choice will change your life forever, while the other would be to continue with your current life. What road will you choose?" I asked him in the form of a little riddle though it is not a direct way for me to ask him about becoming a magician.

"My life is not interesting at all and if I continue my life again, there is nothing for me to change and I will remain an insignificant person. However, if I can change my life from that dull world, then I won't hesitate to change my life forever."

Yami nodded and he snaps his fingers, engulfing his fist to flames. Ishana waved her hands and the water on a nearby puddle floated in the air and she plays with it by forming it to different shapes. Kyouya was surprised and he back off unconsciously though I stopped him.

"You don't have to worry, we are just showcasing our abilities," I said to him before activating the Blazing Shoes.

"What are you guys? Are you summoned heroes also?!" Kyouya is in a state of panic.

I deactivated my ability and smiled at him. "No, we are just people who has some work to do. We are the people hidden in the side of the world. We exist in this world for the sake of protecting the public for the dangers lurking in the dark. If you accept the proposal, you will become one of us and your ability to use things like we did earlier will be something you can do too. We are not called Heroes but we are Magicians."

"Magicians."

"Yes. And you have the potential to awaken as one. However, this is the crossroads we are talking about. If you decided to awaken your ability, we will be helping you awaken your ability and you will no longer live the normal life again. Aside from that, you have to accompany us in our job. On the other hand, you can reject everything including the chance to learn the magic spells but in exchange, we will be wiping out your memory involving us and this world and sent you back to your world without any connections to this world. Your choice is vital here."
