While Lars left Lykos as soon as he could, Maxim didn't even have to fly two hundred meters, when he saw Daimon and the others happily chatting with each other.

While he was quite upset since he was forced to hand over ten times the quantity of stalactite milk, he originally intended, it was true that he didn't take Daimon's words seriously.

In comparison Lydia took the risk and ended up being the winner, even if Maxim wanted to only throw the pay and leave, he couldn't, first because he had to sign a contract and second because there were four Half Emperors present right now.

"Ahem, Licht young master, I'm here to pay for the spots at the first year's exploration team", said Maxim as he took out two metal cases containing the ten pieces of the Thunder Nimbus Vine and ten bottles of stalactite milk.

Daimon accepted the cases and only after inspecting the contents, he casually handed Maxim a soul contract which Erin prepared beforehand.

Maxim quickly read the contract and inwardly sighed, there were zero flaws on it, he made a slight cut on his finger and let a drop of his blood to fall on the paper, as soon as the process ended, he took the contract and flew away without saying anything.

Daimon kept the things in his storage ring and then turned to see the others, as expected, Zein and Solomon had approval expression on their faces.

Calvin laughed and placed his elbow on top of Daimon's shoulder as he looked at his grandfather.

"As expected of our class rep, extorting two Magus Kings so easily".

Daimon bitterly smiled.

'What do you mean with "as expected", do I look like a blackmailer or something like that?, he thought only to be laughed at by Evangeline.

'Well, you did extort that tiger woman'.

Daimon chuckled and didn't answer her, instead of that they walked towards the happy wanderer, since his fight with Alexander ended pretty quick, they were just about lunch time.

Mireya went ahead to prepare everything too, so once they arrived, besides the party that was going on, on the streets as the matches were reproduced on the screens, they had their own celebration to attend.

To everyone's surprise, there were other people in the Happy Wanderer already waiting for them, Leena, Gabriel and his sister as well as Stella who was about to leave.

"I just came to congratulate you all for your victories in my little sister's stead, she is refining the petal of the snow lotus so she couldn't come", she said as she excused herself.

Daimon accepted her goodwill and then she left, since she will be taking the role of tutor for the travel in a few days, she had to do a lot of things.

Once stella left, Lucas dragged Calvin to the kitchen and they started putting the dishes on the table as well as a lot of different drinks, instead of the normal lunch, this time Mireya organized a small banquet for them.

Daimon took a glass with some drink and then offered a toast, although his goal of being the strongest didn't change, he had to admit that he has developed a certain level of respect for his classmates, to the point that he considered them trust worthy friends.

"For our victory", he said as he rose his glass.

"Cheers!".

Besides Solomon who was gulping down his usual liqueur out of a barrel, the others accepted the toast and then the party started,

Daimon finally understood why Aliya looked more tired than usual, she handed each one of her students a ring which contained one set of potions whose formulas the found at the Dima's cave.

"Although you'll be given a ring from the academy before entering the magic ruin, you will be allowed to bring one bottle of ten different potions or pills, these three are way better than most of the ones available and since none of you is a knight, they are perfect, the others are up to you".

Daimon and the others accepted the gift and that also reminded Daimon he had a little gift for his classmates too.

"Here".

Calvin, Michael and Liliana caught each what Daimon threw at them, and they were speechless.

A bottle of stalactite milk, a piece of thunder nimbus vine and a couple of petals from a snow lotus.

"Daimon this…".

The first one to try and say anything was Michael, since he had wind element, the thunder nimbus vine was quite good for him, there was even a small possibility that he could awaken lightning element.

Calvin on the other hand was shameless enough to not try to return it, but that didn't mean he didn't give Daimon a thankful gaze.

As for Liliana she had a small but pretty smiling expression on her face which she couldn't hide, but it didn't last long as she felt two different gazes piercing her back, which made her return to her usual neutral expression self.

"Just accept it, you all did your part beating those guys up and I can't use more than one anyway".

He then looked at Aura who nodded before handing Loren a small scroll, Loren's hands trembled as she respectfully accepted it.

"Burning Point… an offensive type light spell who can be trained up to the Lord realm", mumbled Loren as she read the contents of the scroll.

"Just claim you found it on the magic ruin", said Daimon ignoring the slightly creepy happy smile in Calvin's face.

It might not look like something big, but there was a reason as to why Loren's family were stripped out of their offensive spells, and within the beast faction light spells were banned from the market.

Even the underground merchants wouldn't risk to incur in the wrath of the whole galaxy, just to earn some money from a declining family, and now Daimon handed her a chance to revive her family, of course she was happy, that also meant she was recognized as a member of the elite class.

"You two will have to wait a bit… well if Leslie is lucky enough, I might get something by tomorrow, it depends on the principal of the Ocean Heart academy", said Daimon as he looked at Yvonne and Leslie.

Leena seemed to have something to say, but she remained silent and decided to talk with Daimon later.

Solomon was the same, the stalactite milk was useless for him, but his daughter on the other hand could use it, he rubbed his chin for a split of a second before he continued drinking with Richard.

,m The celebration then continued for a few hours, tomorrow they will reunite to discuss about the fights, but for today the idea was just to hang around and rest, so they all let loose and enjoyed the food and drinks.



By the time the celebration was over it was already night, while Calvin and Lucas were dead drunk on the floor, the others were just a bit dizzy, on the adult's table it was the contrary, Solomon, Zein and even Richard were all quite drunk.

And while they could sober up just circulating their mana, they chose to not do so, in comparison the Risha mothers didn't have any alcohol.

Loren and Mireya started cleaning while the ones that were awake started leaving, Boris said goodnight as he left with Aliya, Leena was the was the same, she took Dana and Gabriel and also left, not without saying.

"Kid, I'm interested in buying a piece of the thunder nimbus vine, you have my sigil, if you are willing to trade, tell me and I will send you a list of treasures I have".

Erin who was eating a piece of cake, softly snorted.

"Leena, in case you forgot, both Daimon and Aisha have lightning affinity, the same goes for Aura, so you better prepare some good stuff for the trade".

Leena didn't say anything and just left, Erin was only teasing her, she wasn't the only one that saw the amount of each resource Maxim handed Daimon, in fact Maxim did it like that on purpose.

The idea was that greed took over them, an alliance is hard to break from the outside, but easy to corrupt from the inside, or at least that's what he thought, but no one fell for it.

"We should get going too, see you tomorrow", said Daimon to the Risha sisters who were somewhat distant during the whole celebration.

After saying that, Aura used space shift to transport everyone to the mansion, the girls had a few drinks, Liz being the most drunk out of them, which was proven as she jumped on Daimon as soon as they appeared on the living room of the mansion.

"Cuddle with me~", she said with a loving voice as she rubbed her face against Daimon's.

Erin and Aisha who had slightly flushed expressions let their bodies fall on top of Daimon's, as they gave him needy gazes.

Daimon was about to get up to take the girls to the bed, when Erin and Aura also hugged him holding his body on the floor of the living room.

"You two aren't drunk, help me take these three to the bed…".

Daimon was interrupted by Aura's pretty face getting closer to him as she pressed her lips against his, the sweetness of her lips combined with a little hint of alcohol were quite enticing.

"I want some too~", Erin pushed Aura aside and then took her place, her kiss was more aggressive compared to Aura's but the sensation was incredibly pleasant too, while Daimon couldn't get drunk due to his abnormal body, even he couldn't help but feel dizzy after kissing those two.

Feeling his little brother getting ready for the action he pulled Erin's tail making her let go of him as she softly moaned.

"Let's go to the bed", said Daimon as he carried the girls to the bedroom, Erin and Aura exchanged gazes and then followed him with bright smiles in their beautiful faces.
