Now that he was not being affected by the pressure of the space Daimon checked the skill tree tab to see what did he obtained and there were two new slots added which were marked with a yellow warning signal.
[Blink LV 1: Allow tele transport within a range of 100 meters on every direction]
[Cooldown: 30 seconds] [Price: MP* (Undefined depends on the traveled distance)]
[Space affinity (Passive): Improves the capacity of the user to understand the space law]
Daimon nodded.
“Now that is one hell of a skill… I can’t wait to test it later”, he thought.
Without him noticed they arrived at a white castle; Daimon expected that the werewolves intercepted them midway to see their matriarch but that wasn’t the case.
Erin landed on the roof of the castle before dispelling the barrier, she noticed that Daimon had his eyes open and she immediately got close to him.
“Little Daimon… why did you opened your eyes; do you feel okay?”.
Listening Erin’s worried voice Aisha also opened her eyes and focused her attention on her son.
Daimon smiled.
“Don’t worry I’m fine, in fact I got quite an unexpected benefit from experiencing the space shift, I will show it to you once we return, by the way auntie, I thought the werewolves would intercept us but there is no one here?”.
Erin shook her head.
“Things are a bit different on the Argent clan, here the hierarchy es extremely strict to the point where no one dares to approach that old witch’s castle, not that it affects her though, since most of the time she lives on her personal mansion in the Wild Claw academy”.
Erin doubted for a second before adding.
“She is quite eccentric but I can guarantee that she is not a bad person, she has even saved my life once before so she is my closest friend, just act like normal and everything will be fine”.
Erin took out a silver plate with the same sigil with the form of a wolf’s head that Daimon saw the other day and a door opened for them, they directly went downstairs until Erin opened a specific door, the inside of the castle was quite simple, the most interesting thing were display cases with swords mounted on the walls, some of the swords were clearly damaged or even broken.
Erin saw Daimon’s curious expression and she explained.
“Those are her trophies, the swords she has been using since she became a mage… don’t ask her about their story or we will be here for a long time”.
Once they were outside the main room of the castle Erin knocked on the door and waited.
…
A couple of minutes passed and there was no response, Erin sighed before opening the door and shouting.
“Wake up you lazy old witch!!!”.
Once Daimon was inside the room he saw it, in front of him there was a bed in which a young-looking woman was laying while showing some signs of being just waking up, she had a slender figure, long messy white-silverish hair and a pair of yellow eyes which reminded Daimon the ones of a wolf, on her right eye there was a thin vertical scar but that didn’t change the fact that she was a beauty, instead it added a wild charm to her appearance.
As a member of the werewolf race, she had a pair of wolf ears and a tail, which combined with her sleepy expression, the slight clothing she was wearing and the bed sheets half covering her lower body made Daimon think, “cute”.
Of course, he didn’t say it out loud because the sleepy woman in front of him was… Aura Argent the strongest member of the werewolf race that has ever existed on the Wonder Myriad stellar chart.
“Yaawwn, what day is it… weren’t you going to come here in two days or was I dreaming that conversation?”.
Erin sighed.
“That conversation was real, also I tried to contact you a couple of times since I decided to come one day early but you didn’t answer the call”.
“Hmmm ♥”, Aura stretched her body
“Whatever, let’s just go straight to the point, the cute boy behind you is the child you mentioned before?”.
Erin nodded.
“Yes”.
As they discussed beforehand Daimon took the initiative to present himself.
“Daimon Licht, greets the matriarch of the Argent family”.
Aura smiled, her yellow eyes seemed to glow for a moment before she stood up and moved in circles around Daimon which would have made him feel a bit tense if not for the fact that she was only wearing a white shirt and… panties.
Erin scolded her.
“Oi you old witch, can you put on some decent clothes for heaven’s sake?”.
Aura ignored her, she grabbed Daimon’s arm and started touching his muscles as if she was looking for something, before doing the same on his neck.
Once she finished her “inspection” Aura nodded.
“You got a nice build kid, how old are you and in what stage are you?”.
“5 five years old… early stage of the novice mage realm”, Daimon answered.
Aura’s eyes widened a bit but she hid her surprise a second later, she turned to see Erin and gave her an envious gaze, “I can’t believe such a talented child from my kin was born outside the clan, she thought.
Erin laughed.
“Hahaha, don’t give me that look I’m giving you the chance to meet a child with a potential that probably surpasses yours so show some gratitude”.
“Tsk”, Aura focused on Daimon again before saying.
“Can you show me your claws?”.
Daimon did what she asked and his nails turned black before changing their form to the ones of a predator, Aura did the same but just on one of her fingers before comparing them.
“Woah, the sturdiness and sharpness of this kid’s claws are practically on par with a two-star rank werewolf while only being an early-stage novice mage!!!”, she said.
Aura put on a cunning smile.
“Kid don’t you want to live here in my Argent clan, I will declare you as my first direct student, I will also fulfil any requests you might have as long as they are within my power”.
Listening to her shameless words Erin interrupted.
“Hey, what do you mean with that you old witch, Daimon will be staying in my clan… let me tell you that he is getting along quite good with both of my daughters”.
Aura shrugged.
“You can’t blame for trying, fine I accept the deal… from this point and onwards my Argent and your Revy families will be one and the same”, Aura took out a black piece of paper from her spatial ring before biting the tip of her finger and letting a couple of blood drops fell on it, Erin did the same and then Aura handed the paper to Daimon.
“This blood contract stablishes our alliance, you can see the privileges and benefits assigned to you, once you finish reading it just give it to Erin so she can protect it”.
Daimon received the thing and he just kept it in his storage ring to carefully read it later.
Aura took out large case from her storage ring before saying.
“I have a present for you but first you will need to pass a little test”, she opened the case to show its content, a one edge sword, its handle was made out of black leather, it had a small guard and the blade had a mixed pattern of black and blue.
Erin immediately stood in front of Daimon and shouted.
“Are you out of your mind, Aura!!!”.
Aura smiled.
“No, I have always reserved this for a special occasion… the magic sword “Disaster”.
