Before entering the basement of the prison, Daimon directly talked to Rita and Horals.

"I'm only going to activate the ability once I find a decent magic beast, I'm pretty sure they'll attack me, so be prepared to act".

"Understood, young master".

"Horals listens and obey!".

"The beast had restrictions on their bodies, so they can't move too much, but their pressures are still there… because we use them to fuel some of the formations here, as long as you don't approach them too much, you'll be fine", Annete noticed she was a bit to vague so she further explained.

"We'll wait for you here, go get them~", said Aisha as she placed her hand on Daimon's shoulder, the Risha sisters would be put under through too much pressure if they tagged with him this time, and Aisha had to reason to go too, instead she took it as something her son had to do by himself.

"We'll be able to see you though", Annete tapped her foot on the ground and a series of symbols appeared floating in front of her, apparently that was the master control of the prison.

Annete touched a symbol that resembled an eye and then she pointed at Daimon, then a rune with the shape of an eye attached to his clothes.

The queen then took out an octagonal adult sized mirror from her storage ring, and then Daimon's surroundings from a third person point of view, appeared on the mirror.

"We use something similar to watch on certain specific inmates with this we can even listen to what you say, of course in your case the link is just temporal and it will immediately disappear once you get out of the basement".

Daimon was immediately interested in this device they used which could share not only image bur even sound, something that even the "Watchtower Screens", developed by Liz, couldn't do… yet.

That reminded Daimon he needed one of the devices they used to communicate in Neptune, to the other seas.

"I nearly forgot about it, can you get me the device you use to communicate with each other, if it can reach the other seas, it would be for the best", he asked as he entered the basement through the giant door.

"Sure, you also seem interested in the "Reflection Mirror", it's something that was crated by the expert magic blacksmiths of my Delphini family, as it uses a certain specific mix of materials to create a special mirror, I'll prepare some for you, maybe it will help you find your companions faster", mumbled Annete.

…

Just like when Annete took them from the forest to the Warhammer city, Daimon went through an artificial dimensional tunnel when he entered through the gate, the difference was that this time it only took him a couple of seconds to reach the other side.

Daimon was then welcomed by a strange sight, there was a large road in the center of some kind of underground facility, which was surrounded by water at both sides, with some divisions every certain distance.

The best way to describe it was a bridge in the middle or a water body that has flooded due to the rain, as there was only about ten meters from the road and the water.

Not even a second later Daimon was hit by a plethora of mana pressures, coming from all over the place, the combination of so much different pressures actually made Daimon feel a bit dizzy for a couple of seconds, before his Overlord's Pride kicked in, cancelling all their effects.

"Damn, there is as many Arch ranks here as there is in any of the big families", mumbled Daimon.

He then saw the water at both sides of the road wave or show some bubbles coming from below the surface, but he simply shrugged and walked towards the road in the middle.

According to the scarce information he got from Annete, he needed to see the magic beast and physically enter in contact with it, for the ability to work.

Then under the surprised eyes of Annete and Mellie who were watching the whole thing, Daimon jumped into the water.

"Did he just jump into the underwater cages… the species and their descriptions were written in the plates in front of each cage", mumbled Mellie.

"Well, that's Daimon for you".

"Mm, one gets used to it overtime~".

The Risha sisters "flaunted" their seniority in knowing Daimon with Mellie.

Back at the basement of the prison, Daimon submerged into the water, the first thing he noticed, was that there were chains floating all over the place, and separating the different phone couldn't take care of them.

Without s second of delay, the first "tenant" welcomed Daimon as a large black bank inked tentacle swung towards Daimon, then a series of formations illuminated generating a strong discharge of electricity which shocked the magic best.

After some growls and roars, the tentacle simply stopped moving and Daimon was free to land on the floor of the underwater cage.

"Fierce Black Octopus, a beast whose limit is the peak Arch rank, what's the point in keeping you here, you have reached the end of your potential", mumbled Daimon, seeing the creature in the cage, it was a black octopus chained to the floor of the cage, the thing seemed to be angry, but its mana pressure was too weak to even cause Daimon a slight headache, clearly it wasn't worth his time.

Daimon swam upwards until he was able to bypass the chains forming a wall to separate the one of the cages to the other one.

This time, the magic beast didn't try to attack him as soon as he entered its space, in fact he couldn't notice the magic beast trapped here with just a quick view, but when Daimon used his infinity eyes, he noticed he was stepping onto some kind of rock formation.

Which turned out to be the magic beast in disguise.

"Rock Bottom Crab, decent camouflage abilities but not too strong in combat, not really my cup of tea".

The crab clicked its pincers in response, trying to split Daimon's body in half for insulting it, but the chains restricted its movements.

So that Daimon was easily able to leave the cag and go to the next one, now the third cage was actually tricky, as he could hear a hissing sound since he entered it.

This time the magic beast was a sea snake.

"Oh, you look interesting… it seems you were already tamed once before, so you won't budge huh?", the sea snake simply observed Daimon from a corner, it had a mark burned on its forehead and showed no interest in him at all.

Clearly the thing was too tired and in fact seemed to be enjoying being in this prison, so Daimon also skipped this one.

Then he got to the fourth cage which was at the end of the road, this cage was different than the past ones, the water was completely black and cold, to the point that it was hard to see past a couple of meters in front of you.

"How many years has it been, since someone dared to enter my little piece of paradise in this hell of a prison", a hoarse mocking voice echoed through the water from all the directions.

The combination of the pitch-black water and that eerie voice would have been enough to cause goosebumps on anyone, but unfortunately for the magic beast which was actually able to rationally thinking, Daimon's infinity eyes could see through the darkness that was imbued into the water of this cage.

"Cut the crap, you are a Devil Goblin Shark, one of the renegade species… meaning you live in the Maelstrom Sea, so you don't socialize with the mermen, am I right?".

… After a couple of seconds, the water revolted before an eye opened in front of Daimon, that's right an eye with the size of a house opened a few dozens of meters away from Daimon.

"So, we have a little brave one this time, you have some balls I will recognize that, but it seems you weren't taught that we have some freedom even while being trapped here, why don't you become this senior's food".

A large mouth filled with spiked teeth opened and tried to swallow Daimon whole, to his surprise although the formations seemed to be attacking the Goblin Shark, he ignored the backslash and was keen decided to eat him.

But then as Horals and Rita prepared to attack the shark, a yellow vertical line automatically appeared in Daimon's pupils and the darkness which as imbued in the water, was dispelled in a matter of seconds.

"Aghhhh, what the hell is this!".

Daimon was now able to see the real appearance of the Devil Goblin Shark, pretty loyal to its name, it was a pitch-black Goblin Shark, with symbols similar to the ones in the black stone corridor, engraved in its whole body.

But that's not what was important right now, but the fact that it was bleeding from its eyes and nose, the thing tried to advance towards Daimon and then deep wounds opened in its skin, forcing him to retreat.

Then the sweet sound of a notification rang in Daimon's ears as he

[Ding]

[The host has instinctively activated the ability "Blood Suppression" from the Commander of the sea]

[An enhanced version has been unlocked due to the existence of the Ruler of the sea, Blood Suppression à Royal Aura]

[Royal Aura (Passive): As the first son of the sea of the north, all the sea magic beasts must demonstrate respect in front of Drakolevia, any sea magic beast without an ancient root of the same caliber can't attack the host and must abide by the orders of the host once they have tried to (Limited to two greater realms above the level of the original level of the host)]

Daimon raised an eyebrow, this wasn't exactly the skill he wanted to unlock, he once heard that some members of the royal family have the ability to tame a sea magic beast regardless of its grade, since the moment they are born, though it's an extremely rare situation, the current king as well as the crowned prince have that capacity.

And now thanks to the information Annete transferred to him, he realized that is in part an ability of the Black Armored Shark's lineage, the original "Commander of the sea", is supposed to give him the chance to tame magic beast to act as his "Commander", that's also the origin of the name of that ability.

The only one capable to control wild magic beasts are normally other magic beasts, the Commander of the sea allows you to raise a magic beast that obeys you, if you are lucky enough to tame a strong magic beast, then it can become an alpha and you'll have a pack of magic beast at your disposal.

In comparison the Ruler of the sea had a different approaching, with it you could skip the part of having to raise a magic beast to act as your commander, and instead you could directly become the one to rule them.

The only problem is that apparently, they needed to try and attack him, so that he could order them, on the other hand, he just got a pretty decent one, a magic creature which shouldn't be able to be tamed since it's a native of the Maelstrom Sea, on top of that.

'How interesting, I seem to remember there is another little thing from the Maelstrom Sea, which has some potential', thought Daimon.

The Devil Goblin Shark, saw the grinning expression in the face of the silver haired youth in front of him, and his colossal body unconsciously shivered.

'The mark of the king… no this isn't respect, I'm feeling fear!', he screamed in his heart.
