Chapter 237 Gathering At The Border (Part 2)

Oblivious to the fact that he was probably the first person that didn't care at all about the net of portals for high-speed transportation exclusive to a certain number of people, Daimon had a peaceful time sleeping.

He even hugged Aisha out of instinct since she was sitting in front of him, which made Stella laugh, to see the imposing and serious Daimon she met, looking so defenseless was something new for her.

'He acts all grown up, but here he is hugging his older sister, what a shame I didn't bring a camera', thought Stella.

Aura on the other hand could more or less suppose what Stella was thinking and she giggled at the fact that she misunderstood it.

Anyway, for both Aura and Stella travelling through space like this was good for their cultivation in the path of magic, being in contact with the space was actually helpful as long as someone was strong enough to endure the exposition.

Of course, Aura's barrier was blocking the chaotic mana which lingered in the dimensional tunnel, meaning they couldn't restore their reserves of mana while travelling through it, but a Half Emperor had enough to endure the whole travel.

…

About ten or so hours later Daimon opened his eyes feeling fresh as a lettuce, apparently while he could somewhat remain conscious inside the dimensional tunnel even as a star ranked mage, the weight for his brain was too much so he easily fell asleep as a way to avoid any damage.

'Your body keeps changing according to your needs, last time you suffered to understand "Blink", but this time you didn't have to go through that', said Evangeline.

Daimon inwardly nodded, he actually felt that the long-stagnated skill "Blink" was now showing some signs of leveling up, which didn't happen no matter how many times Aura or Erin took him with them and used space shift to travel.

'Perhaps I need to expose myself to the space, I'll give it a go later when we return', he thought.

Stella who was truly meditating also opened her eyes and seeing Daimon awake, she nodded.

"It's good to se you are up, we are about to reach the end of the road, to think the "Demon" of the elite class has such an intimate relationship with his older sister", she said with a teasing smile on her face.

Unfortunately for her, Daimon has never been the type to take things laid down.

"Those are some big words for someone who couldn't hide her smile after her little sister advanced, don't you think so, vice principal Stella".

Stella who was laughing a moment ago, nearly choked, she slightly blushed but didn't say anything as she was the first one to "attack".

Instead of that she cleared her throat now feeling more relaxed around Daimon, last time they didn't exactly get along after all.

"Ahem, speaking of that… I haven't thanked you for that, Gina told me she was only supposed to get one petal but you gave her two and she actually ended needing both of them, so you have my gratitude for that".

Stella slightly bowed her head towards Daimon, who had a bitter smile on hi face, to be honest he was just going to give her one petal originally, but after observing her fight using his infinity eyes, he deduced she was going to need two to break through, the same applied to Lana, he doubled the drops, in any case he got those resources in part thanks to them.

"You are my ally too, so don't pay too much attention to that, if you feel indebted once you get into the magic ruin, don't let the other mage lords bully us, okay?".

Stella smiled as she looked at her sister.

"Speaking of that, the mage lord from the Blue-Sky galaxy is from their army… a human from the Penddra family to be more accurate, so despite how polite he might act when we meet her, don't trust her, those guys were the ones who created "Holy Light" and unlike the guys from the light faction you met before, they are one of the two strongest forces in the human race".

Daimon nodded; Richard also told him to be wary of the Penddra family, apparently, they had something against darkness element mages, but the same could be said about all the forces in the beast faction for light element mages, so it was reciprocal.

"Thanks for the advice, what about the Argon family, Yvi's grandfather told me to be wary of them too, the same for demons who have a number tattooed in a visible spot of their bodies".

Stella shook her head as she answered.

"The Argon are the other strong force among the humans, but they aren't fanatics unlike the Penddra, at most they are greedy, so they ally with anyone who can give them benefits, easy to deal with if you know how to treat them, as for the demons… they did something similar to you, not all the ones coming are students from the Grave Stone academy".

"The captain is an outsider this time, but I don't know anything else, information about the demon race is extremely hard to get after all, in exchange the I know the undead lord realm that is going from their side is a Bone Collector".

Aura nodded in recognition, she more or less had the same information, so Stella properly did her job getting intel on the enemies.

"We are leaving the dimensional tunnel, there might be a small shock so prepare for it".

Daimon and Stella nodded and prepared for it.

The surroundings suddenly changed from the tunnel to a large room whose walls were filled with runes, the vey moment the portal closed, all the others came out of their dazes, the Risha girls saw that they were clinging to Daimon and their faces got red as they let go of him.

'Imagine of you told them, they practically hugged you for about half a day darling~', said Aisha in a voice only Daimon and Aura could hear.

'So, you were conscious too mom'.

Aisha cutely stuck her tongue at her son, unlike him whose body was abnormal enough to help him process the information, she would have needed to use a boosting spell to move and talk, but she was conscious, it was a strange experience but nothing a former Archmage couldn't handle.

Besides her beloved son had her in his embrace practically the whole time, so for her it was like cuddling and resting.

Daimon noticed Aliya was a bit dizzy despite the barrier, so he turned around and helped her get up, she also clung to him, but unlike the Risha sisters who "accidentally" did it according to what their mothers taught them, she did it out of necessity.

Aliya slowly shook her head and then took a sip of her medicine, which helped her get react.

"Thanks, for the help, I told my uncle to come instead of me, but he insisted that the teacher should come".

Daimon chuckled, Boris wanted Aliya to be respected as a teacher, so of course she had to be present when the magic ruin finally opened.

"Ahh, my legs are all cramped damn it", Calvin and the others got up and stretched their bodies, although their minds didn't notice the time that passed since they entered the portal, their bodies did, so of course they were a bit stiff after not moving for half a day.

Aura used her token to open the door and everyone came out of the room, they were at some planetoid near the border of the Stellar Chart, so after leaving Calvin and the others recover for a couple of minutes, she called them.

,m "The Immortal galaxy is the closest so the vampires are probably already there, Arianna no matter how much you feel disgusted by them, don't be the first to attack, if they dare to raise their hands against you then you can beat the crap out of them".

"Oh, so it's true that werewolves and vampires can't stand each other", mumbled Haylee.

"Yes, but not all vampires and not all werewolves, for example I hate the guts of the Naktis and Silverheart families but not because I'm a werewolf but because they are assholes, in comparison I had nothing against the principal of the Crimson Blood academy, which is the matriarch of the Nosfear family, and she doesn't have anything against me either, and yet we can't see each other without wanting to cut the throat of the other, luckily we managed to use that for a good reason and turned that into our way to greet each other".

Daimon didn't know whether he should laugh or cry, that was Aura's battle maniac self in all its bloom, luckily Victor nor Aisha's father would come, because he might have not been able to keep the hatred, he felt towards them in check.

Aisha of course knew how her son felt, that's why she dedicated herself to give lots of love to him the past weekend, the same for the others, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that their love was a great help for Daimon to not be overwhelmed by hate.

Aura waved her hand and they all disappeared from where they were standing, the door of the room closed and the whole building blurred before it became invisible.

A couple of seconds later they appeared above an asteroid which was covered by a transparent barrier, Aura used her token and a small space opened allowed them to enter.

Just as Aura mentioned the students from the Crimson Blood academy were already there, Calvin had to do his best to not laugh at them.

While in the Wild Claw academy the students were allowed to not wear the uniform as long as they wore their identity tokens, the vampires were stricter in that aspect, so everyone had to wear their white and red western noble like uniform.

Both groups stared at each other for a couple of seconds, before a dazzling red glow appeared on the sky where a blurred figure was visible from afar.

Aura smirked and she transformed into a silver flash which shot itself upwards, both lights clashed a few dozens of times, creating thunder like explosions.

"Those two are going at it again", Daimon looked upwards just to see the field marshal appearing out of nowhere, without Alexander and the others, so apparently, they were yet to arrive, still he created a barrier to protect them from the waves of mana resulting from Aura and the Nosfear matriarch.

At the same time a white-haired guy with red eyes wearing a gray uniform with a lot of medals did the same for the vampires.

"It's been a while Parzival".

"Baron".

While Daimon still didn't know how the Nosfear matriarch looked, he did remember the guy who was protecting the vampires, as he visited the Naktis when he was a baby, the equivalent of the field marshal for them it was the Blood Chiliarch Baron Valliere.
