Daimon could more or less tell what was going on judging by the changes in the illumination coming from the room, as well as the somewhat excited voices of the Risha sisters and even Aisha.

Still, he walked towards the door and was welcomed with the sight of a huge roofed training room, the floor was made of some kind of light blue tiles that resembled a platform, just with tapping his foot on it he knew it was a really sturdy material.

Besides that, there were reinforcing arrays and equipment for long and close combat as well as a large variety of training weapons, mounted on the walls.

Besides the firing range which Liz built specially for him, this training room didn't lose at all compared to the one at Erin's mansion, where Aura has trained him for the past eight years.

And just as he supposed, the origin of all that noise and light show, were the girls sparring between each other… or at least that was the original idea, but as of right now it was more like a five-way all out war.

The Risha sisters had their wings spread, but were using minor spells to extend their usage as most as possible, while still taking advantage of the overall boosting they brought to them, instead of using their strongest spell like a glass cannon.

According to Liliana's calculations, after receiving the maximum amount of mana he could give them, it was enough for them to use their wings twice.

Aisha on the other hand was also taking things seriously, using both metal and lightning boosting spells at the same time, she flashed from one side of the room to another, dodging the attacks of the Risha sisters, while was clashing with Mellie.

Speaking of Mellie, Daimon was surprised to see the normally soft and gentle looking princess, being quite fierce in battle, she used a pretty unique weapon Daimon has never seen nor heard of before.

A fiddle made of a mix of different blue minerals, which were also somehow used for the strings, it looked like a luxury musical instrument instead of a weapon but it worked pretty well.

When Aisha attacked Mellie with her sword, she blocked with the hard part of the bow and when the Risha sisters attacked her with a spell, she played a note on the fiddle and somehow dissipated the spells.

It's worth mentioning that she was using her innate ability as she had that shining yellow vertical line, on her forehead, also when Aisha used thunder arrow, she slid on the tiles of the floor to dodge it.

Then she retaliated by pulling on one of the strings and then a small explosion occurred in the direction she aimed at which usually made the Risha sisters jump to avoid being hit on their feet.

Daimon chuckled amused by the fact that they were attacking whoever they had in front, he even saw Leslie and Liliana clashing which created a pretty show of dim blue ice and bright orange flames.

But then as if the girls had planned it beforehand, they all exchanged gazes and beautiful smiles flourished in their pretty faces… before they all launched an attack at Daimon.

Daimon activated his infinity eyes out of instinct and saw his mother winking at him, before she casted a moderated thunder arrow towards him, in Liliana's case she shoved the tip of her rapier on the floor and a line of ice blades and spikes raised with it as the origin.

From above Leslie waved her fan and a tsunami of flames rained down, Yvonne was a bit sneakier shooting an arrow which seemed pretty normal, if not for the fact that there was a barrage of dark arrows hid in the shadow of the first one, last but not least Mellie, her attack was invisible but thanks to infinity eyes, Daimon could see the tiles vibrating wherever the soundwave passed.

'Young master should we…', Horals's voice was directly transmitted to Daimon's ears, as he asked if he was required to act, as Daimon has ordered him to treat his companions with the same respect, he shows him.

"No need", mumbled Daimon, his image then blurred and he appeared one hundred meters away from his original position just to blink one more time to appear right next to the Risha sisters.

He then gently touched their backs and to their surprise, their wings were dispelled, for Mellie he was able to snatch her fiddle away as she wasn't holding it with enough force, though she managed to retaliate using the bow as a staff and bashing it against Daimon who blocked the attack with his forearm, and was actually sent backwards leaving a two centimeters deep trail on the tiles.

Daimon looked at his forearm to see that there were some shallow scratches on his skin, which quickly faded away, also the tip of his fingers with which he touched the backs of the Risha sisters, sill had fire ice and darkness mana attached to them.

That being said, the mana of the Risha sisters wasn't even trying to harm him, it just stayed there chilling in his hand, it was probably related to the fact that their wings were now created using a mix of his and their mana.

Without a second of delay, he used blink one more time and appeared behind his mother, but then before he could do anything, Aisha raised her hands and left her body fall backwards into her son's embrace.

"I surrender~".

Daimon was speechless, as strong as he is, Aisha is always able to read him like a book, to the point that in a fair fight although they tied, she would always have the upper hand.

With his mother still leaning against him, Daimon looked at the Risha sisters and Mellie before saying.

"What is happening here ladies and why are you attacking an innocent bystander?".

The first one to answer was Mellie, she shily smiled as she explained how they ended up in an all out five-way battle.

"Sorry, solo training is pretty boring… so I asked Aisha, Yvonne, Leslie and Liliana if they wanted to train with me and they accepted to kill some time".

"I thought I was a good way to improve teamwork since Mellie joined our group, and miss Mina wanted to see if it was true that even if we combined our strengths, it would be nearly impossible to take you down with an ambush~", said Aisha with her usual relaxed voice.

Daimon chuckled, but he could more or less understand what happened here, Aisha and the Risha sisters liked to brag about him, and it was understandable that others doubted about some of the things he was able to do, which led to this little surprise attack combo they pulled on him a moment ago.

"Mm?", Daimon then looked at the Risha sisters and saw their faces were slightly flushed, but as he was about to ask them what was happening, Aisha's playful voice echoed in his mind.

'Although it wasn't intentional, you touched the base of their wings darling, it's the same as caressing the base of Aura or Erin's tail, something they would hate if done by a stranger, but when done by their partner hehehe, so those three are of course feeling a bit shy right now~'.

Daimon bitterly smiled, their wings weren't exactly part of their flesh and instead were mana condensed in a special way, though it was linked to their nervous system as they could move them as they wanted.

And for that reason, he was careful to not touch them when sent a small stream of his mana into their mana circuits, to interrupt the flow and dispel their wings, but apparently, he didn't take into account that their upper backs including the area right below their napes which was his point of contact, was considered the base of their wings.

But then Daimon saw those three smiling although they were avoiding eye contact and he knew they weren't really against it, so he ultimately inwardly shrugged, if they didn't mind, he neither.

"Ahem, sorry for the interruption but we might have a bit of trouble in our hands", suddenly the normally playful voice of Annete could be heard in the training room.

The queen wearing her elegant long blue and white dress, appeared out of a space portal that opened right in the middle of the training room, with a serious expression in her pretty face.

"Sis, what happened?", asked Mellie, she knew that her older sister would only be serious around her, when there was a really important and potentially dangerous situation ongoing.

Annete contemplated things for a second, before she pointed at the door.

"Let' go have something for dinner, then I will tell you".

No one objected so they followed the queen to the dining room, where the maids immediately started preparing everything.

Once everyone was sitting and the maids had placed the dishes and drinks on the table, Mellie looked at Daimon before saying.

"A moment ago, an emergency meeting was arranged between the clan heads of all the highest ranked noble houses, the number of deaths in the younger generation due to the pirates surprise invasion was pretty large, about 25% of the descendants of low ranked nobles were killed, for the middle ones the number amounts to a total of 10%, and just 5% of deaths on the high ranked descendants, and that is without taking into account all the injured".

"The same happened in the Elemental Sea apparently, but just as we managed to capture some pirates thanks to Daimon, a "rising star" that appeared out of nowhere frustrated the plans of the pirates on the granddaughter of the shaman, and due as a way to thank that rising star, they asked him what could they do to repay… and the answer was to exchange pointers with the young generation of the kingdom, as that will also allow both Seas to bond and grow closer as an alliance".

"Originally the most important members of the young generation, would come to the banquet offered by the royal family, but now that stupid king accepted that all of the young generation of the Elemental Sea would be allowed to attend to the major events of the kingdom this time".

"Of course, I objected, since we are still in a chaotic state after being surprised by the pirates, but more than half of those bastards voted against me, because "The kingdom would lose face if we were unable to welcome visitants from our ally", and that's not all, the magic beast hunt was changed to tomorrow, as the Wild Tide Reef has opened earlier this time".

Daimon frowned, understanding the concerns of Annete, putting the young generations of the two Seas together was basically drawing a shooting target on their backs, as no one knew how many pirates still lingered in the shadows.

And there was also that guy who asked it as his reward from the most respectable family in the Elemental Sea, in other words the family of the shaman.

"Do you know something about that "rising star", you mentioned?", asked Daimon, while a certain idiot came to his mind.

"Mm, I confirmed it with my own means, blond hair, blue eyes and light element, an acquittance of yours?", said Annete.

Daimon bitterly smiled.

"Yeah, I know the guy, it's one of the people that entered this place, but he is an enemy… I suggest you prepare a containing force just in case, no one knows what the likes of him can pull off their sleeves".

The queen's eyes glowed for a split of a second, she looked at Daimon directly into his eyes before she nodded.

"Thanks for the warning, I'll prepare B plan just in case~".
