The party was going to last the whole day but the new students didn’t have to stay here, they were free to wander in the academy, after Daimon enjoyed the cute scene of Aisha eating the little portions of a cake, he was giving her they finished their meal and decided to walk and see what the academy had to offer.
When they passed next to the table of the tutors, Boris threw a letter and two badges at Daimon.
“That is your schedule, the classes you have the attend at which hours and the classroom where they would take place, normally you will have to ask the orientation guys, but considering you might try to rip off their heads… due to a conflict of “interests”, I’d rather save myself some headaches and directly give it to you, the badges are your identification token as students, there is no obligatory uniform but you must use the badge in a visible part of your clothes”.
Daimon smiled.
“I’ll accept your offer then, enjoy the party old man, I prefer less crowded places”.
After saying that, Daimon left the ceremony hall followed by Aisha, he could feel some gazes falling on him but surprisingly none on Aisha.
“It’s good to see that, I didn’t bother in doing all that for nothing I guess”, he thought.
According to what Aura has told them about the academy there were a lot of good places to see in the main campus, they even had a private forest and a lake for recreation purposes, which was their current destination.
Along the way Aisha saw a lot of new students, some were talking to each other or simply hanging around together, surprisingly there were eve some couples which were clearly enjoying a date but most of them weren’t first years but students from superior grades.
They arrived at the lake, it wasn’t midday yet but the sun was up in the sky so they laid down at the shadow of a tree, of course Aisha didn’t miss the chance to lean her body against her son’s.
Seeing the joyful expression in his mother’s face Daimon asked.
“Why are you smiling like that… Aisha”.
Aisha covered her mouth and laughed.
“You are still getting used to call me by my name right darling, anyway I’m quite happy because a certain overprotective son was so gallant before ♥”.
Daimon felt a bit embarrassed; it was a bit hard to say things like that, but on the other hand it was something common in this world.
“Ahem, I wanted to give them a message, while there might be some stubborn guys who will still try to challenge me… or get close to you, still I bet there will be only a few now and if that wasn’t enough then I don’t mind giving another demonstration”.
Aisha turned to see their surrounds and after confirming that there wasn’t anyone near them, she gave her son a kiss.
“That was an advance of your reward, we will continue with this later… in our room ♥”.
Daimon returned her the kiss, simple pleasures like hanging around with a girl he likes in a school, were things he didn’t get to experience on his past life so all this was new and he was enjoying every second of it.
Evangeline’s thunderous laugh, interrupted their moment.
“I wish I could eat some snacks while seeing the show, “if you direct your disgusting eyes at my beloved Aisha, I will tear them out of your face”, was it? hahaha, it’s like watching a movie from your old world”.
Besides his physical appearance, another big change that happened in the past eight years was that the girls now knew of the existence of Evangeline, they have even talked with her, it was easy for them to accept Evangeline as the “spirit”, of the power Daimon has inherited.
They thought of her like an entity similar to Narasha, contrary to what Daimon expected when he presented Evangeline to them, they just said “as expected of little Daimon”.
Still unlike Narasha who could talk with Evangeline without Daimon interfering, for Evangeline to speak with the girls he had to function as the canal of communication, which of course he didn’t do unless there was something important.
Aisha laughed, with the pass of the time she could more or less know when Evangeline spoke to her son, because his reaction was usually getting angry at her.
“Oi Evangeline don’t tease him too much… and don’t you dare to spy on us later okay?”.
Evangeline had a weird smile on her face, this time Daimon did the connection so that his mother could listen to her voice.
“Yeah, yeah, I’m not particularly bond to see you pair of pervert mother and son getting all clingy between each other anyway”.
Aisha put on a grin on her face.
“I would like to see if you can say the same in the future… my darling even turned his sword into his soulmate and Narasha now longs for a physical body just to be with my darling, so I’m sure you would be the same hehehe”, she thought.
And so, with the slightly cool wind blowing around them, they enjoyed a good time just talking, until Daimon caught a glimpse of a group of students approaching them, according to their badges they were second grade students.
Daimon sighed, “the man proposes, God disposes and the demon decomposes… luckily, I’m the demon this time around”, he thought.
The group was formed mostly of people from the Risha and Jolbaris families, but among them there were a couple of members of the Argent family, which was nothing to be surprised, not everyone obeyed Aura, since Daimon didn’t have the characteristics of the werewolves with the only exception of the claws, many of them were in disagree with him being the young master.
Specially among the older ones in the young generation, before the ones that respectfully greeted him were the youngest generation which sometimes saw Daimon training with Aura so they were aware of how much of a monster he was, which earned him their respect.
Honestly it could have been avoided, in the Revy clan there wasn’t anyone besides the little faction of the elder Ernest that didn’t show him respect, he was the future husband of both their clan head and the champion after all, if he decided to publicly arrange a marriage with a high-status member of the Argent clan then thigs would have turned out different.
A representative of the each of them took few steps ahead of the rest and surrounded Daimon and Aisha, so right now there were girls from the Jolbaris and Argent families and a guy from the Risha family in front of them.
Daimon shook his head while saying.
“It seems that what I did at the welcoming party hasn’t reached the ears of those in superior years… if not you would not interrupt my time with Aisha”.
The guy from the Risha family clenched his fists.
“I can assure you it did reach my ears… the one you tortured in front of the whole new students and tutors is my younger brother after all, every year there are arrogant brats like you who need to be taught their place by their superiors, it’s a hazing ritual”, he said.
Daimon decided to follow the act a bit.
“Really, do the teachers allow this? and what is all this ritual thing about?”.
The girl from the Jolbaris family took over.
“The teachers don’t care about anything happens outside the classroom unless there is something quite serious happening, besides you just need to strip yourself and run all the way to the front of the ceremony hall, that will be quite entertaining to see right? You can go first and then it will be the turn of…”
*Bang*
*Splash*
Before she could finish her sentence, two different sounds interrupted the conversation, first some kind of low power explosion and then the sound of something falling into the water of the lake.
The two girls turned their heads to look for the guy of the Risha family but… they couldn’t see him anywhere, there was only an empty space between them, the next thing they saw was Daimon who was aiming at them with a gun in each of his hands.
The girl from the Argent family was trembling, she has seen Daimon using that thing that shoots metal from its cannon once before in the clan and the power behind it was quite brutal, in her mind Daimon just killed a second-grade student and a fourth star ranked mage.
“I felt like playing with you a bit, what shame you had to mention something like that… but I do agree with you in something, it will be funny to see a naked person running around the academy”, said Daimon with a grin.
p The girl from the Jolbaris suddenly tried to attack them with a whip she had hidden in her belt, just to receive a shot from Daimon and be sent flying all the way to the lake.
Daimon stood up and dusted off his jacket, without forgetting to point at the remaining girl with one of the guns.
“You are the last one, give me the answers I want and then you won’t need to run naked around the campus”.
The girl immediately nodded.
“Please ask… young master”.
Daimon nodded.
“Nice answer, who is the one that asked you all to do this?”.
The girl immediately replied.
“No one, Julius… the guy from the Risha family got notified by the infirmary that his brother was badly injured, so he indagated on the situation and found out it was you who did it, you can imagine the rest, second years do have a hazing ritual for the new students but it only consists in throwing them buckets of water or things like that, nothing too serious”.
Aisha laughed.
“The result would have been the same”, she said.
The werewolf girl hesitated.
“Killing someone… for such a little thing like being thrown some water, don’t you think it’s a bit exaggerated?”.
Daimon snorted.
“Nah, but unfortunately they aren’t dead, those were impact pullets so they just fainted due to the shock but they might drown if you don’t take them out of the lake hahaha”.
