With all the drivers including the peak Arch rank cooperating, the camp was soon completely set up, they set up a perimeter with traps to delay enemies in case of an ambush, some basic formations to hide the camp from magic beasts and also a bonfire.
Only then the nobles got out of their carriages, five guys and a girl all of them seemed to be in their early twenties and all of them were five-star realm mages.
Inside of the carriage Aisha looked at the Risha sisters before saying.
"I think there are still a couple of hours more before Daimon wakes up, how about we stretch or legs a bit?".
The Risha sisters exchanged some gazes before they nodded, though the carriage Daimon bough was way comfortable than normal ones due to the sofa bed, after nearly ten hours of travel they still needed to stretch their bodies and get some fresh air.
"Mm".
The door of the carriage opened and the nobles's attention was immediately drawn towards it, since the moment thew saw that carriage ignoring a main branch descendant of one of the four founding families, the Blackfin family to be more accurate, they were curious about who might be travelling in that carriage.
But the result was different to what they expected, the driver that earlier talked with Daimon expected to see a man coming out of the carriage instead of Aisha and the Risha sisters.
'Well, it seems that young master… surely knows how to enjoy life', thought the driver before he approached Aisha.
"Excuse me young misses, I remember having exchanged a few words with a young man earlier, or was I maybe speaking with the senior that is watching over you?".
"Our companion is training inside of the carriage, we wanted to get some fresh air in the meantime".
As the driver was about to invited them to join at the circle near the bonfire, the door of the other carriage also opened.
"Y-You are…".
The driver who was the first one to turn to see the person coming from the other carriage, was speechless for a second.
It was a girl in her middle twenties, with a tall figure of about 1.8 meters, she had a healthy pale skin with a slight pink tone, long dim blue hair that cascaded down her hips, a pair of fin like ears but different to the ones Daimon and the girls had seen so far, sky blue eyes and on top of that, she had a pair of horns similar to the ones of a deer but made of a material similar to coral, with a crystal like color, as for her get up, she was wearing a long light blue dress with white tones here and there.
But while the woman was indeed a stunning beauty, she couldn't overshadow nor Aisha or the Risha sisters, what truly made the other nobles be in awe was the identity of the girl.
"We greet princess Delphini!", all the nobles, drivers included placed their right hand on their chests and bowed their heads, to greet the girl who turned out to be someone related to the royal family.
Aisha raised an eyebrow, she also leafed through the book that Daimon got from the information store, and the royal family of the Clear Water kingdom was supposed to be all from the White Royal Shark race.
On the other hand, there was indeed a Delphini family, one of the old noble houses formed by the Crystal Dolphin race.
Aisha then realized what happened, the family of the king and all his descendants were members of the White Royal Shark race, but his wife and probably concubines weren't, so apparently the current queen was from the Delphini family, and this girl in front of them was her little sister becoming a princess due to that.
Of course, she wasn't in the line of succession of the royal family, but the fact that she was related to the queen didn't change, a princess for association so to speak.
The girl noticed that Aisha and the Risha sisters didn't react the same way, but she didn't take it personal, they were supposed to be part of the neo noble faction and they didn't respect any tradition, the only thing they paid attention to was strength.
"Please raise your heads, we aren't in a formal event", the girl's voice was gentle and soft, bringing those who heard it a soothing sensation.
The other nobles obeyed but one of them, the one who claimed to be from the Rizar family still couldn't help but ask.
"Princess Mellie, pardon my intromission, but shouldn't you be at the Crystal reef city under the protection of the city lord given the current situation of the kingdom?".
Listening to the words of a random noble, the driver who acted as the bodyguard of the princess, inwardly sighed.
But the girl shook her head.
"No, if I let this chance to travel through the kingdom slip past me, who knows when will I get another one, don't treat me like a princess but a fellow noble and that's all".
Needless to say, but the other nobles found the situation strange, a princess just randomly appeared in their group, on the other hand that explained why that guy from the Blackfin family was so keen on accompanying her.
"If that what the princess wants, then we'll oblige, please join us for dinner, I prepared some of the dishes that the restaurant of my family offers, the four sisters over there, feel free to come if you want to", the only girl in the group of nobles invited them to have dinner together.
A couple of minutes later they were all sitting across the bonfire sharing dinner, the girl from the Delieri family who name was Aida, wasn't lying, the food she prepared was quite delicious, reaching the same level of the restaurant in the Sea Dream hotel, which was a lot to say considering she wasn't an expert chef.
"Wow, I once heard a cousin of mine saying that having a friend from the Delieri family is a blessing, but I thought he was just overreacting, but miss Aida has opened my eyes", the guy from the Damar family, Tyron, was pretty straightforward, but the other nobles did agree with him.
"Mm, my older sister told me that the royal chef was instructed by lady Delieri, but not many people know about it", to the other nobles's surprise the princess easily blended in the group, unlike what they expected she was pretty easy to get along with, if anything she wasn't too talkative.
But she was overshadowed by Aisha and the girls who limited to hear the conversation and eat their meal.
The other nobles didn't try to meddle with them, because neo nobles were openly against the old noble families, and they had a princess from one of them right in front of them, it was already good enough that they weren't at each other's throat.
Once everyone had their fill, the Arch ranks who were escorting them had their turn, and then everyone prepared to go to sleep, the men prepared tents in front of their carriages, while the girls all entered their carriages.
"I'll take the first round, we'll change the night watch in two hours", Sergio Rizar offered to take the first turn of the guard and then everyone went to sleep as it was past 11:00 PM, the Arch ranks all stayed awake around the bonfire, while they were the ones in charge of the surveillance, they didn't interfere.
This travel their respective young masters were doing was supposed to be an eye opener, it was for them to gain experience in the real world, and they had fulfilled one of the many goals, since they learned one of the many important lessons… there is always someone stronger.
Inside of the carriage, Aisha and the Risha sisters accommodated on the sofa bed and after saying goodnight they turned off the lights and went to sleep.
"Now that I think about it, if Daimon was awake, he would be sleeping next to us… right?", mumbled Leslie with the lights off.
The other girls just laughed and after some random chatting silence fell in the carriage as a sign that they have entered the land of dreams.
…
While the girls were calmly sleeping, Daimon whose mind was inside the special space the Lineage Temple wasn't having such an easy time.
"Ahh, damn it, Evangeline I'm going to punish you once I'm out of this damn place!", Daimon who was running suddenly jumped to the side, avoiding by the skin of his teeth a blue stream.
"Booom!", although the attack didn't land on him, he was blown away a couple of hundreds of meters due to the strong impact that even raised one-hundred-meter waves, as soon as he was about to land, he saw the water splitting and changing its shape into sharp needless.
Daimon who used blink to avoid the attacks, remembered how things got like this.
The time in this place didn't work the same as the real world, so while on the outside it has only been about ten or so hours, it has been ten days here.
At the beginning of the trial, Daimon had to fight with strange shark with black bone plaques covering its body like an armor, but although it looked threatening, its strong point was that suppressing capacity, so after a couple of hours, Daimon managed to melt the armor using Demon Light and killed it.
But then as he was about to celebrate his victory, the unmistakable sound of a notification stopped him from doing so.
[Congratulations to the host for having cleared the first part of the trial "Blood Suppression" has been acquired, the second part of the trial "Commander of the sea" will start now, the more the host lasts, the better the result will be (historical maximum eleven days), good luck]
Daimon didn't think too much about the second part of the trial and he accepted it, what followed next was beyond his imagination.
First the shark that he killed regenerated and started chasing Daimon, however this time he wasn't able to damage it, and instead had to dodge or cancel its attacks while making sure the shark didn't catch him.
The only problem is that with each hour that passed another sea creature spawned out of nowhere and joined the chase, so as of current, Daimon was being chased by about 240 something sea creatures of different sizes and shapes, but all of them had the same strength as the initial shark.
So, Daimon has been running through the endless sea, being chased by a couple of hundreds of middle stage Lord ranked magic beasts, the trial would only end once he is eighter captured or "killed", luckily his mana reserves were virtually endless, so he has been able to keep moving at a high speed or use blink when needed.
Still, some of the attacks brushed him, ripping part of his clothes from time to time, so he was quite haggard at this point.
Daimon suddenly let his body fall down, barely avoiding the horn of narwhal, which would have impaled his back of he didn't react on time, but then with his eyes looking at the water, he saw a swordfish coming from below.
"Fuck off!", Daimon who was pretty angry at this point, covered his fist with metal mana and punched the swordfish sending it flying a dozen of meters, before he continued running.
'Just one more day… Evangeline I'm going to smack your ass once I'm out of here', he swore in his heart, why you ask, well while apparently Evangeline couldn't hear him, she could see him, and he could swear his infinity eyes caught a glimpse of a blurred figure with a bucket of popcorn watching the whole thing.
