Daimon softly laughed at Yvonne's behavior, she indeed acted completely different to her calm and rational self, and became not only more talkative but even a bit shameless.

At the skybox of the elite class, Irina had a hard time not laughing out loud as she saw her daughter, utterly destroying her opponent without any problem.

'Let the world see how awesome is my Yvi', she thought, but her sweet imaginations were interrupted by the voices of her sisters.

"Yvi, managed to slightly control the cheekiness of night sparrows, unlike you Irina~".

"You were a sadist".

While the Risha mothers started arguing about some matters of the past, Aliya and Boris were surprised by the performance of the girls, Boris specially as he already had evaluated them once before, but his previous calculations were shattered to pieces.

"Even if Daimon didn't interfere, those three should have been able to deal with their respective "suitors" from the light faction, then why…", mumbled Boris only to be interrupted by the three mothers.

"Luckily our girl's teacher isn't you!", said the three of them at the same time.

While Veronica and Anya ignored Boris after saying that, Irina did explain as her father is also Boris's instructor.

"Do you think they wouldn't have used those spells earlier if they were able to, those spells have a strong impact in our minds and emotions, those girls needed a strong enough motivation to control themselves enough to use them, something not hatred oriented and now they found it".

After saying that, Irina couldn't help but steal a gaze at the black-haired youth which was sitting on the bench with a contemplative expression on his face.

'I wonder if things would have been different for us… if we had met someone like you', she silently thought for herself.

…

Back at the arena, some assistants carefully took Misha to the infirmary, besides her limbs which were completely twisted, her head also suffered quite a bit.

The referees ignored the commotion that was going on the stands and continued with the selection process, for the next match.

"Rank number 11, Loren Lefay".

"Rank number 13, Ramon Lastres".

Daimon raised an eyebrow at the weird surname, apparently Alexander brought some people from small families, probably attracting their most talented member of their young generation with some benefits, while also affiliating their families to his.

Calvin also frowned, her opponent was some tall bulky guy and Loren is a support type mage, but Loren simply nodded at them and went up the stage.

The screens changed their focus to the participants of the last match of the day, Loren had brown hair and blue eyes, she was using a green and white get up and leather armor as well as metal protections on her shoulders, a little shield attached to her left arm and a chest plate, her weapon of choice was a Morningstar.

As for Ramon, he was a tall guy with bags under his eyes and a pale unhealthy skin tone, despite his bulky constitution he looked rather sick, he was wearing a black robe and had a large needle-like sword without a guard.

'A darkness affinity mage', thought Daimon, as he felt Alexander's condescending gaze on his back.

But he not only ignored him, but he even vilely smirked seeing that his team was mostly conformed by guys, even Misha wasn't exactly feminine.

"You think you are some big shot, just because you got a darkness affinity mage as a lackey", he said with a ridiculing voice, loud enough so that Alexander's team heard it.

The referees gave the greenlight and the match started, Loren raised her left arm and blocked the needle like sword of Ramon which he thrown at her.

Sparks flew as Loren was forced back a bit, but the attack ceased and the needle was suddenly pulled back, Loren's eyes narrowed seeing a black thread attached at the hilt, then she looked at the small shield on her arm and let out some of her mana to cleanse the black stain on it.

Looking at the shield closely she noticed a small burning mark on its surface, unlike Yvonne's darkness, Ramon's one wasn't as strong, the problem is that as a light affinity mage, she was susceptible to it.

To top it off, most of the light element spells of her family were confiscated, so besides radiating mana to cover her body and a low ranked shot type spell called without offensive properties called "flare", she only had healing spells.

Noticing the lack of a counterattack from Loren, Ramon let out a wave of his mana and shot it towards Loren, before rushing at her.

"A declining family like yours should become a trampoline for my Lastres family!", he shouted as the wave of black mana blocked Loren's field of vision, he threw he swirled the needle using the black thread as an extension of the hilt before launching it towards Loren.

A dazzling yellow light made the wave of dark mana to fade away, Loren came unscathed from the impact but she was then assaulted by the needle, which was aimed at her chest.

With a quick maneuver, Loren used her Morningstar which was glowing with yellow mana, to repel the needle, even then she was overpowered in terms of physical strength so after blocking, she still had to move aside to avoid the left-over impulse of the needle.

Loren shot a yellow light ball at Ramon, which simply laughed and received it without blocking.

As he expected the ball of light didn't do anything to him, which made him snort.

"The captain told me your family had no offensive spells under the Lord realm, and it turned out to be true, in fact I feel refreshed by it, light affinity while being from the beast faction, what a disgusting family".

Daimon noticed Calvin clenching his hand and he inwardly sighed, who would sit idle while someone important to you is being insulted, still he gave Calvin a little hint so that he could calm down.

"That wasn't a flare spell… just wait for it".

Calvin nodded and then focused on the platform again.

Loren kept redirecting the needle with her shield, with every clash a piece of it was destroyed until she had only a small disk of about five centimeters of diameter.

Ramon laughed as he created added darkness spikes to his needles before throwing it at Loren, this time although she blocked the impact, some of the spikes scratched the leather protection leaving a large burn on it.

Loren's arm trembled a bit, the leather which was melting burned her skin, but she inwardly gritted her teeth and didn't show it on her face.

She kept doing the same until she had landed about twenty flares on Ramon, some missed and he even dispelled some of them with his darkness, for a total of about forty times on which she casted that spell.

Loren panted a couple of times, before she took the initiative to get into a close combat, making Ramon mock her.

"You are nearly out of mana and now you want to fight head on, dumb bitch", he swirled his needle before rushing frontwards.

"Clang~Clang~Clang!", the repeating sound of metals colliding filled the arena as Loren's Morningstar and Ramon's needle kept clashing.

Unfortunately, due to the difference in length and the variety of spells, although Loren wasn't losing, she wasn't landing any hit on Ramon, while with every clash, a piece of her leather armor was melted due to the corrosive effect of darkness, leaving some marks in her skin.

The result was quite horrible, after a couple of minutes of that crazy exchange, Loren's arms were trembling and it was getting hard for her to sway her Morningstar, there was also a faint trace of blood coming from her lips, because she had to bit her lips to prevent her body from going numb.

The only thing she did this whole time was casting flares and using minor healing spells on her, when there was a heavy wound in her arms.

Ramon was sweating as he inwardly cursed, with the amount of darkness he has used, let alone a girl, even a knight should be screaming of pain while not feeling his whole body anymore, but his opponent was still enduring it, which made him feel insulted, specially after seeing Yvonne easily destroying the defenses of Misha with an arrow.

Although he miraculously awakened darkness affinity, the amount of it which he could manipulate was quite low, that's why he focused in increasing its corrosive effect, and as a result of that, his skin became unhealthy pale and he lost some weight, but the result was worth it.

Seeing Alexander nodding at him, Ramon decided to finish things at once, he used all the mana he had left and condensed about ten large dark needles around him, with a wave of his hand they were shot at Loren, which dodged the first ones but was hit by about four of them, making her spit a bit of blood.

"Now's my chance!", shouted Ramon, he dashed frontwards and with his needled he pierced Loren who seemed to be unconscious on her chest.

But then as soon as he was about to smile and celebrate the first victory of his class, his pupils contracted, Loren which had already dropped her weapon, looked at him as he was looking at a fool.

"Haaa!", she closed her little hand and punched Ramon on the face.

Ramon suddenly froze… he stepped back a bit, but besides that nothing happened.

"So weak, your family deserves to be declining…. Aghhhhhhh!", while he was talking, Ramon suddenly let out an ear tearing scream, under the surprised eyes of everyone blood exploded out of every part of Ramon's body before he collapsed on the ground.

A complete silence fell on the arena, Loren gave a defiant gaze at the area where the half emperors were sitting as she took out the black needles out of her arms and legs, revealing the purple burns they left due to the corrosion.

"Fountain of life", she softly casted the best healing spell she could use and all the burns disappeared, her skin even looked smoother than before as if she had rejuvenated.

In comparison, Ramon looked as if life was escaping from him, the referees immediately got up the stage and administrated a blood replenishing potion, but the only result was that more blood came out of his body, then they noticed all his external veins and some of the large ones practically exploded out of his body, destroying his skin and muscles, it was as if he was peeled.

From the area where the half emperors were watching, Aua inwardly nodded, besides Daimon asking her, this was why she fought with the council to transfer Loren at Daimon's class.

'Someone who can do so much, with so little is worthy of being called a genius', she thought.
