Daimon has always believed in equivalent exchange, when others treat him good, he'll reciprocate, so since the queen has allowed him to take whatever book he might find interesting, in her library.
And seeing that Mellie was genuinely interested in the culture of the Wonder Myriad Stellar chart, he too out some of the books he bought to give Dimas in the future, as there was nothing sensitive written there.
As soon as Daimon handed Mellie the he noticed, she used her innate ability, so that a vertical yellow line kept releasing wave after wave of dazzling light.
"Mm?", although Daimon only stole a few glances at Mellie, which she wouldn't have normally noticed, in this state her senses were incredibly sharp, and for the second time in Daimon's life, someone noticed his gaze, the first one being Arianna back when she was using bio boosting and he accidentally peeked on her.
Mellie noticed Daimon seemed to be interested in why she kept using her innate ability and after thinking about it for a couple of seconds, her pretty blue yes glowed with a curious light.
"One of the abilities my Analyzing Resonance grants me, it's an enhanced comprehension and learning capacity, I can selectively store information and then consult it in my mind whenever I need to, so it has become a habit for me to use it when I read or hear something interesting which… I don't want to forget about".
"That's a bit too much of a cheat", mumbled Daimon.
'Says the one with Core Synchrony and the Apex Predator body constitution'.
'And Disaster, or should I tell me, on top of that~'.
Listening to Daimon calling Mellie a cheater, both Evangeline and Narasha couldn't help but tease him.
'Evangeline, stop corrupting my Narasha', Daimon inwardly chuckled, those two had become quite close lately, which was good as it helped Narasha understand more about emotions… though Evangeline might not be the best role model from Daimon's point of view.
"Daimon, have you tried to use the Ruler of the Sea already?", asked Mellie.

The curiosity was killing her, but it was understandable considering, the Black Armored Shark's lineage has been lost since the era of the foundation of the kingdom, and most of the records of that time were destroyed during the war.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say, it's the first time in dozens of thousands of years since someone has even heard about it… as if it was moped under the rug and forgotten purposedly.
"No, I do have some lord ranked magic beasts, but I tamed them before managing to use this ability, so I don't even know how to use it".
Daimon then looked at the progress of the mission "Stealing from the hero", which had a warning symbol still blinking from time to time.
[Crystal Horn Pendant: A treasure elaborated with the bone of a beast with ancient roots, warning missing information, please get the second gem to access the memories of the lineage ]
[Missing Information: Unable to retrieve the memories of the lineage, please get the second gem to complete the codex]
For a change, although Daimon got the skill "Ruler of the sea", there was no description to it, probably because it was a reward from a mission which is incomplete, the system stated that he needed to find the second gem.
But that didn't mean he couldn't learn to use it by himself, the problem is that since he wasn't born with it, he had no idea how it worked.
Most innate skills which depend on the race are instinctive, for example vampires, once they reach a certain age, they'll instinctively learn how to enlarge their fangs to suck blood from, or just how the Risha sisters suddenly learned how to use their wings, but weren't able to teach it to others, the key was the memories of the lineage.
Deep hidden in the genetic codex of the race, the possibilities were limitless, some characteristics manifested with the pass of the years, or due to a certain situation, that's also the origin of mutations in affinities, such as Aura or Dana, in other words variants.
Mellie contemplated things for a second, before she used an octagonal device to call her sister, of course as a Half Emperor, Annete appeared a second later with a somewhat excited expression in her face.
"Daimon, is it true you don't know how to use the Ruler of the sea, nor have activated it in front of a sea magic creature even once yet!", in her enthusiasm she grabbed Daimon by his shoulders and shook him a bit.
She only recovered her composure after feeling a lot of gazes piercing her body like spears, Horals and Rita's ones included.
"Ahem, sorry about that… I was just worried that you'll lose a huge chance by an accident", said Annete as she took a couple of steps back distancing herself from Daimon.
"Thanks to the heavens, Mellie told me in advance, it would have been such a waste if you went to the magic beast hunt and used the Ruler of the sea".
"Say Daimon, if I were to teach you how to use the first ability of the Ruler of the sea, will you help me keep an eye in a certain little sister who keeps getting into trouble~", said Annete with a playful voice as she gazed at her little sister.
Daimon stopped to think about it for a moment, he has always reminded himself to completely depend on the system, and so far, that mentality has proven to be right, his abnormal physical strength as a result of taking advantage of the tension in his body caused by Core Synchrony and his Infinity Eyes were a perfect example of that.
"Is that all you want in exchange, just to be clear I was already going to look for Mellie, since she will be part of my team?", asked Daimon, Annete might be a lot of things, but dumb isn't one of them, so Daimon was a bit confused that she was willing to give him such valuable information just for something he was already planning to do anyway.
And he wasn't the only one that thought about it, Mellie stole a gaze at Annete as she thought.
'What are you trying to confirm sis…'.
Annete simply nodded.
"Yeah, that's all, you just need to let a drop of your blood on the pendant I gave you, it will be a three-way promise to not harm each other and that's about it".
Daimon nodded, he took out the pendant which turned to be one of the two gems he had o find, and let a drop of his blood fall on it, without any hesitation, if it was something detrimental, the system or more accurately Evangeline would have advised him against it, that and ay type of binding unrelated to the system didn't work on him nor his soulmates anyway.
Not that like he wasn't going to honor his word, but in case there was some kind of flaw in the contract engraved in the pendant, it wouldn't restrain him at all.
"Mm, now please close your eyes~", once Annete saw Daimon doing as she told, she asked him to close his eyes which he did.
Then the next thing he knew was that there was a soft and comforting feeling on his forehead.
"Sis, what are you…".
Daimon opened his eyes just to see Annete's pretty face a few millimeters away from hi, but after all what he has done with his girls, this wasn't enough to caught him out of guard, what did surprise him was that the Ruler of the sea activated by itself, making a yellow vertical line appear in his pupils.
And that wasn't all, the same happened to Annete, the difference was that her mark was on her forehead just like Mellie.
As Daimon was about to ask what was she doing, a small flow of information entered his mind, or it would be more accurate he had a sudden "inspiration" regarding how to use the Ruler of the sea.
"I happened to be lucky enough to sneak a peek at a certain book my father had in his desk, when I was really little… that's in part how I know about the Ruler of the sea, I transferred what I saw that day to you, sorry in advance for the vagueness, most of it was encrypted so I only learned what I could understand".
"I guess Mellie already told you about or capacity to learn and comprehend, we can also share what we learn, but just to a very specific group of people, you are the first one I do this with, besides Mellie of course~".
Listening to her older sister, Mellie bitterly smiled before saying.
"Sis, you don't need to be so specific… forget it, how is it Daimon, do you now know how to use the Ruler of the sea?".
Daimon waited a moment to order his thoughts and then he nodded, the information he received from Annete wasn't exactly precise, since she probably acquired it at one of the first times, she got to use her ability if not the first one.
But it was still good enough to give him an idea on how to use it, and he couldn't wait to try it.
"Yes, do you have any kind of sea magic beast with which I can try… the stronger the better".
Annete's eyes glowed for a split of a second and then she took out a black key from her storage ring.
"There is, in the private prison custodied by me, where the son of the Blackfin Duke, there is a large-scale section filled with sea magic beast up to the late stage of the peak Mortal realm, or the peak Arch rank was it?".
"Sounds good, please take me there to see the strongest magic beast inmate you have trapped there".
Annete nodded, she tapped her foot on the floor and a gate materialized a couple of seconds later.
She inserted the key in the lock and was able to open it in a couple of seconds, the inside of the gate was completely different to their current sight, at the other side of the gate, there was a grim "warehouse" with tons of empty cages and zero sunlight.
"Come with me", as the inmates turned to see Annete, she coldly glared at them and the vast majority trembled and then looked aside, without even daring to look in the same direction as them.
Annete guided them all the way to the basement of wherever this place was, until they reached a gate with the same size as the one in the entrance of the city.
"All of them are in a cage so feel free to check them out, good luck".
