Chapter 129 Returning To The Academy

Normally when the students of the academy find some kind of resource or treasure there are a few possible scenarios, depending on the value of the thing the teacher has the right to confiscate the it, of course the academy won't rob its students.

But there are some materials which enter in the strategic resource category, such as mithril, orichalcum and antinite for example, so in those cases the academy had an agreement with the big forces and families.

The force from which the student who found the thing came, would receive half of it, the other half was kept by the academy not without giving a proper compensation to the student in mana stones or other things.

That being said the teacher didn't always do it, ultimately it was up to its criteria, in the case of the elite class, Boris and Aliya of course didn't have any ideas for the things Daimon and the others found.

But they still felt curious about them, the prizes were left behind by the Greenwich Sage after all, Aliya specially felt attracted by the formulas since she is an alchemist.

Seeing the slightly childish and excited expression on the face of Aliya, Daimon handed the formulas to her, so she could make an idea of how they worked.

Aliya accepted the offer and started inspecting and comparing the formulas with the exciting potions she knows, and after nearly fifteen minutes she reached a happy conclusion.

"I don't remember having ever seen potions with these effects, although there are some similar, none of them has those extra effects directly designed to deal with knights".

Boris smirked, "If that's the case, those potions will come handy during the exploration of the magic ruin, your "teammates" will be the guys from the blue-sky academy".

Aliya doubted for a moment before she looked directly at Daimon.

"Can you leave these formulas in my care… I will start working on them as soon as possible and I promise to have a batch ready for the exploration… I can sign a secrecy contract of you want".

Daimon shrugged.

"That was the idea to begin with, also there is no need for a contract, I don't think you will value some mid level potions like there more than your own theory".

While Aliya might not be the only alchemist Daimon can arrange, she had one advantage over others, he could trust her, so Daimon already considered her the "private alchemist" of the elite class.

Calvin sighed

"The formulas were supposed to be our trophy though".

Aliya chuckled, "Maybe, but I'm pretty sure you aren't going to refuse, now that your class representative has given them to me, right?".

"Ahem, of course not, I as the most loyal member of the elite class, will of course fulfill the orders of our representative".

The other things didn't get the attention of the teachers, everyone agreed the blueprints were better in the hands of Liz, the book was the same it had a high theoric value for both Aliya and Liz but that was all.

Lastly the coin, Andras Griffin was known for bragging, so it wasn't rare to see a literal piece of metal with his initials, but in this case the metal was orichalcum, Boris and Richard just evaluated the coin before returning it to Daimon.

"About one hundred grams of orichalcum… that's some nice stuff you got there kid, my suggestion is to use it to forge a weapon", said Richard.

Daimon smiled, since he had both the Argent and the Revy families, he had no need to use the coin for its material, so he already decided to keep it as it is, who knows it might come handy later.

The rest of the travel was quite boring compared to what they went through before, Daimon didn't miss the chance to request that they are allowed to bring daily life equipment, like bowls, cutlery and stuff like that.

By the time they arrived at the academy the sun was setting already, everyone said goodbye and went to their own dormitories, this time Daimon didn't accompany the Risha sisters, the task was given to Calvin which was more than happy to do it because Loren was staying next to them now, and Michael who tagged along just in case.

…

*Thud*, Daimon closed the door of the mansion, Liz and Aisha went to the bedroom to change their clothes while Daimon only took off everything and just put on some shorts, Aura was waiting on the living room and she watched everything.

Daimon sat on the couch next to Aura and dragged her into his arms, to wait for his mother and Liz, they had a lot of things to discuss, but everyone needed to be "present", so once they also sat on the couch, Daimon contacted both Erin and Elaine to tell them about what happened the past few days.

"Let's start with what will be happening the weekend, we will pay a visit to the Revy family grounds, and our classmates will come with us, we will stay at the mansion that used to be exclusive to the supreme elder".

"I don't mind, but you know those old bastards are going to complain", said Erin.

Daimon smirked, "When they do it just tell them who is using the mansion, the direct disciples of two half emperors, the young misses of the three main branches which lead the Risha family and the heir of the Lefay family".

Erin's eyes glowed, "Those are some decent classmates, but that's not enough to leave me speechless as you said before".

"And what if I add a half emperor from the Jolbaris family, going to your mansion to ask for a favor?", said Daimon with a playful voice.

"What!".

Both Erin and Elaine reacted the same way, total surprise, they even thought their ears were deceiving them.

Daimon proceeded to explain how Gabriel Jolbaris came to offer him something in exchange for him accepting someone in his class, just to be rejected and sent back with the condition of bringing a half emperor to negotiate.

This time Erin was indeed speechless, there was only two half emperors in the Jolbaris family, one was Arthur which everyone here already had the displeasure of knowing, but the other one was more reserved, to the point that no one besides other half emperors knew.

"I will prepare everything… but I doubt you get what you asked, a favor from a half emperor is not something which can be assigned a price you know?".

Daimon nodded.

"I don't think it will be a problem, in fact I can assure you the deal was practically set in stone since that guy came to speak with me, because they don't have another option".

Erin had a proud smile on her face, "Putting a half emperor in check… as expected of my lover ?".

Daimon's face then turned serious.

"Changing the subject, a bit, things are getting out of hand… we found an emperor level magic beast sealed below the frozen fields of Halia and it's just someone from their young generation".

He played with the amphora ring a couple of times before continuing with his explanation.

"And that's not all, we were attacked by a race which doesn't exist in the wonder myriad stellar chart, "fire djinns", they weren't exactly strong but there are just mere scouts, for the time being we are probably safe since they arrived here by accident".

"I managed to capture a few of them an Archmage included, so I think inspecting the place where they appeared it's a good idea… we might even need to seal the place just like at the border".

Erin sighed, "How strong is that emperor magic beast Aura… will you be able to defeat it in a fight?".

Aura contemplated things, Dimas didn't use his spells seriously, but she could more or less guess his battle prowess.

"If I go all out, I think at the very least I will be able to stop him, the next time you will come with me Erin, I want you to confirm that guy's intentions with your heart mirror, if the result is negative, then we'll join hands and eliminate it at the spot".

Erin nodded, "How is the training going, according to our elder which is accompanying the Greenwich Sage, they have already traveled a quarter of the way".

Daimon smiled remembering the familiar sensation he had before they went to the frozen fields earlier.

"My magic core is showing sings of waking up, so I think I will soon break through".

All the girls felt happy, when Daimon's core decided to obey him, the result was always incredible, the last time he advanced from being novice mage all the way to the peak of the one star ranked mage, where he has stagnated since then.

Now that all the serious mattes were dealt with, the conversation took a different connotation.

Erin licked her lips, it didn't escape her that Liz and Aisha will be staying at the mansion of the supreme elder since they are a part of the class, but Elaine and her won't be participating in that.

In other words, this weekend Daimon will spend all his time with her and her daughter.

"I'm looking forward to it", she thought.
