While Daimon was dealing with a panic-stricken Ferdinand, Liz was happily walking while she laughed, “Somehow calling him husband makes my heart beat faster and with that those girls would think it twice before trying to seduce my little Daimon hehehe ♥”.
The scene of a slightly jealous Liz would be quite charming… if not for the fact that she was dragging someone from the neck, the vice principal from the Risha family which told Ferdinand were to find the elite class to be more accurate.
Felix Risha was having quite a bad day, first the clan head ordered him to guide their group at the place were the elite class trains, to be honest he didn’t want to do it as he knew it would cause problems… but his direct ancestor was the law enforcing elder which came along with Ferdinand so he had no choice but to obey.
Still, he retired as soon as he could, with the intention to notify the principal just in case, unfortunately just as he was hurrying to the principal’s office, he suddenly felt as if a carriage had hit him, his body flied all the way until it crashed against a tree.
With a pained expression he tried to stand up just to receive a punch in the face, only after that he could finally recognize who was attacking him, a smiling light brown-haired woman with fox tails and ears, which gave her away as a member of the Revy gamily.
There were only two people related to the Revy family in the elite class, and one of them was the infamous disciple of the principal, which has been causing others to feel miserable, since the very moment he set foot in the academy.
So of course, Felix immediately tried to explain himself, to avoid a calamity falling on him, but it was too late, no matter how much he yelled that he had no bad intentions towards Daimon, Liz just kept beating the crap out of him until she was satisfied.
Once the beating was over, she just said one thing before dragging him to the principal’s office.
“It is easy to invite misfortune, but to getting rid of it… that’s a completely different story”.
So now he respectable peak stage mage lord was being dragged through dirt, grass and stones all the way to the office of the principal, his body was hurting like hell, but he didn’t have any really important wound, so it was clear he had a chance to redeem himself.
“Sigh… if this happened to me just by causing a little trouble, I can just wish luck to the clan head and my grand uncles”.
Back in the training facilities Boris invited Yvonne’s mother and grandfather to “witness” a training session given by him, of course they first sat down to take a quick breath, everyone was still quite tense after a situation which involved Archmages after all.
The adults including Aliya sat together while the student formed their own group and occupied a separated space to recover.
Apparently, Ferdinand wasn’t the only one which knew Boris, because the old man which was with Irina looked quite happy to speak with him.
“Little Ogien, it’s been what five hundred years since the last time I saw you?”.
Boris nodded.
“It’s been quite some time… instructor Richard, how has the retired life been treating you?”.
The old man shook his head.
“Even after I retired from military life, I still have to deal with brats causing troubles, it’s just that now they are from my own family hahaha”.
Boris put on a nostalgic smile, Yvonne’s grandfather used to be a military instructor, unlike others he didn’t discriminate anyone by status, up to this day he still remembers the first lesson he taught to all of them.
Richard stood in front of all its students and shouted.
“A sword won’t avoid your neck thanks to your surname, in my eyes there are only two types of people live or dead”.
Boris shook his head, he looked at Aliya as he thought, “Becoming old for sure makes one nostalgic… I hope those two in heaven can see how amazing their little girl turned out to be”.
Richard noticed Boris melancholic expression and he also sighed, Boris and Aliya’s parents were the best students he has ever had, and he was quite fond of them to the point that when Aliya’s parents died, he ignored orders for the first time in his life and personally traveled all the way to the battlefield to massacrer a whole brigade of the undead army.
He returned covered in blood and with the heads of the undead officials in charge on his hands, he presented them to the empty graves of his students before immediately quitting his position, although it was supposed to be a dishonored discharge, no one dared to bad mouth Richard for what he did.
Aliya more or less knew what happened to her parents, Boris and even the instructor always blamed themselves for it, but she forgave them long time ago, both of them one day visited her to not only give her the bad news, that day she witnessed a respectable peak Archmage and a noble on top of that, bowing his head to her a commoner which was only a star ranked mage at that point.
Aliya saw those two getting depressed and she sighed, Boris took her in as his own daughter and Richard always acted as her back up, that’s why she also joined the army, it was thanks to him that when she injured herself, there was a position in the academy waiting for her, and although others disdained her, no one objected when she became a teacher.
“Uncle… senior Richard, that wasn’t your fault okay, let’ not think on such gloomy events, this is a happy situation, I think we have finally found an opportunity to end all this conflict”, she said while looking at Daimon and the rest of the elite class.
Richard frowned his eyebrows.
“Speaking of that… little Aliya who is that kid? I heard that the son in law of the Revy family was quite something, but lifting the ancestral punishment curse of my family goes way beyond that”.
Boris looked a bit confused.
“Instructor, that kid said he didn’t do it personally considering his status, either the Revy matriarch or the principal helped him on that”.
Richard shook his head, his eyes seemed to change their color for a couple of seconds.
“None one besides Irina, little Aliya and you, know that I also have special eyes, although I can’t use them as I please like Yvonne, I can still see faint traces of that kid’s mana in Yvonne’s head, also considering how fierce is the mana of that kid, the curse wasn’t lifted… it was obliterated”.
Listening to Richard’s explanation, Boris, Irina and even Aliya who already considered Daimon an abnormal existence due to the result of his first time brewing a potion, couldn’t help but improve their impression of Daimon.
Since no one said anything, Richard continued.
“I trained mages as an instructor for more than one thousand years, I saw many geniuses dying in their first real battle, and other commoners reaching glory after experiencing a lot of hardships, when little Aliya offered to teach a few selected people from our family her theory, I refused”.
“Not because I didn’t want my family to become stronger, but because we weren’t able to take on such a heavy weight alone and our relations with other families aren’t exactly harmonious, but now I see the young masters of at least five big forces being led by just one kid”.
Boris smiled.
“Aura Argent, Erin Revy, Charles Ghrish and probably some eccentric old monster which is the backer of Michael, as of right now, that kid has more than half of the beast faction behind him… and it has only been a few days since he set foot outside of the Revy family territory”.
Irina doubted for a moment but she still said what was on her mind.
“Aren’t you forgetting something… all the potential and talent in the world doesn’t mean that kid is trust worthy, I’m for sure thankful that he helped my daughter but how can we just side with someone we just met?”.
Richard shook his head, he has always been a man of action instead of words, some people might think he is a muscle head, but he is quite aware of his daughter’s worries, and he completely understands them, however that doesn’t mean he agrees with her.
“Normally you will be right Irina, unfortunately given the current situation where, depending on the results of the Greenwich Sage investigation, an all-out war might start again, we can’t afford to waste time, what do you say Boris?”.
Boris contemplated things for a second until he reached a conclusion.
“That kid is rebellious, he does whatever he wants, but he isn’t reckless, unlike all the other students I have seen so far including even third grades, for some reason he is always aware of surrounds… as if he has already been in a life-or-death situation before despite being so young”.
Aliya also stepped in for Daimon.
“Also, he isn’t blinded by glory or things like that, I was the one that designed the test of the first one in line for the admission exams, he didn’t want the spot for himself but for his sister, his methods are… a bit violent, but when his companions are in trouble, he was the first one to jump in, in other words he is uncontrollable but loyal”.
Irina didn’t look completely convinced, “My daughter will be at his care you know?”, she thought but the decision was already taken, and her father has always had a good eye for people anyway.
Speaking of Richard, he suddenly laughed out loud which not only took by surprise the adults, even the members of the elite class turned to see the old man which now looked quite enthusiastic.
“Those are the perfect qualities for a leader, so that settles it… now we just need to see if such a fierce kid, wants to team up with us!!!”.
Daimon couldn’t hear their conversation, he was just talking about some random things while looking at Calving with dagger-like eyes, to avoid him asking about Liz previous “introduction”, Evangeline on the other hand could hear every single word and she was laughing at the situation.
“To think that showing off will bring you such an “opportunity”, it seems like women are always a turning point for you, as I expected of a “predator” hahaha”.
She wasn’t the only one listening to their conversation, from the principal’s office Aura smiled.
“Well, it seems, Arthur Jolbaris was right in one thing… the one marrying Liz and Elaine was going to bring a bright future for the beast faction, luckily those two aren’t the only ones marrying him ♥”.
Today Daimon will learn an important lesson, he might have the system and many other things that surpass the level of this stellar chart, but no matter how strong or talented one might be… women attract problems.
