Chapter 432 Rewards & Unconventional Meeting (Part 3)
Daimon and the others came out of the treasury, the high stage Stellar ranked was still kneeling down at the entrance, while the early-stage knight woman tried to help him stand up.
Daimon didn't pay attention to it earlier, but with his infinity eyes he could see that Aurora wasn't letting the guy off the hook so easily, she actually created chains of mana that were restraining the man.
He might be a high stage Stellar ranked, but he is the weakest Daimon has seen, let alone Thea who will for sure destroy him, he judged that the neo noble general Dominic had a stronger battle prowess too.
"Just a trash with an inflated realm", mumbled Aurora as they passed next them, Daimon chuckled, though they ended up benefiting from Abaris's stupid idea of causing troubles on purpose, that doesn't mean Aurora isn't angry about it.
After listening to that, how could the man ask Aurora to lift the restraining spell she casted on him, it would only disgrace the Black Fortress even more, also it's not like he couldn't get out by himself, but it was going to take him a couple of hours.
"Go and inspect the inventory to see what they took, master wants to know the answer by the end of the day at most", said the man.
The woman knight nodded and left the man to deal with the spell, while she had to inspect to find what was taken from the treasury, there were simply too many things there and she had the best mana sense among the Hall Masters, but it was going to take her a few hours do the inspection.
Leaving that Aurora's fierce behavior, they straight went to the exit of the black castle with her guidance and once they were outside, she created another portal.
This time the other side of the portal showed a patch of red land, with trees that had red leaves, in other words it led to the main territory of the Sky Flare sect.
They crossed the portal and were met with a change in the temperature, Leslie looked rather comfortable in here, and she had a reason to, though the concentration of fire mana in the atmosphere wasn't as high as the light mana on the white hill, which even lowered the cost to use light spells, it wasn't bad at all.
"This is better than the fire valley of the Risha family of which that man brags so much about", she mumbled, referring to her father.
Daimon's hand lit up in white flames for a split of a second and then he shook his head before saying.
"This place can't compare with the Mystic Sun Mountain of which Liz talked all the time; we can all go there as part of the second year's field trial".
Leslie's eyes sparkled as she heard Daimon inviting her to visit the one of the rumored three sacred lands of the Revy family, normally one needs the approbation of both the ancestor and the clan head of the family to enter such places.
"Mm~", Leslie smiled at Daimon, after what Veronica did to Kirik, he cut off all the resources of the family that were supposed to go to Leslie, until she accepted marrying the guy from the Gladius family, in part that's why she was the weakest among the three sisters.
Though the other patriarchs hated Irina and Anya as much as Kirik hated Veronica, Irina's father was the old instructor Richard, so Ferdinand didn't dare to pressure Irina that much, as for the short Archknight Horace, Anya defeated him on a battle in which they betted the chance to enter the sacred land of the Ice Eagle clan for Liliana and she won.
Daimon then felt a hatred filled gaze landing on him, apparently their conversation was heard by someone, which made sense since Aurora brought them to the entrance of Skyfire's castle.
The gaze originated on a peak Lord ranked girl which was standing in front of the entrance of the red castle, next to a middle-aged couple, this time it was one middle stage Stellar woman and an early-stage Stellar ranked man.
"You are the one who hurt senior brother like that, you must have cheated, fight me coward, if you lose, you'll have to kneel down in front of him!", said the girl.
Unfortunately for her, Daimon completely ignored her, the middle-aged couple had opened the gates since the moment they saw Aurora on the group, no matter how outraged they were due to the current state in which Skyflame was, the Matriarch could destroy them on the spot if they angered her.
The girl dared to demand to fight with Daimon, because naturally Aurora wouldn't suppress a junior, unfortunately Daimon didn't pay attention to her provocation, he simply walked past them leaving some words behind.
"Unless you have the right to give me a free pick from Skyfire's treasury, get lost".
The girl felt humiliated, she was Skyflame's girlfriend, naturally she knew that even if they married, she won't be the main wife but a concubine, since Skyflame liked Jasmine the most, the middle-aged couple were her parents and the strongest Hall Masters of the Sky Flare sect.
Even then of course they had no right to promise such a reward for Daimon, they just got dirt thrown at their faces, since that meant, they weren't even qualified to request a duel with him, and also, they realized Daimon didn't get provoked like a member of the young generation would.
Inside of the red castle, Aurora directly took Daimon and the others to the treasury, this time they didn't have anyone guiding them, so Daimon just showed the token he got from Skyfire and the gate of the treasury opened.
And just as he had expected, there good things with fire affinity were in the Sky Flare sect's treasury, instead of the one of the Black Fortress, which is normal, not only Abaris favored them due to his late sworn brother, but fire's nature goes against darkness, with the exception that both can be quite destructive, so Abaris couldn't do much with them, he instead just gifted them back through Skyflame, with the excuse of him being his disciple.
Apparently Skyfire never thought the day would come where an outsider will get a free pass to his treasury, probably because he had the Shaman's backing, so his organization was rather… simple.
The highest ranked things were lavishly exhibited in the center of the room, and Leslie didn't need to think twice about what her chose will be.
There was a red crystal furnace among the treasures, a magic equipment on the high Stellar rank and according to Rita, it was the most expensive item on the treasury.
There were other options on par with it, but Leslie knew her mother the best, this will be the most beneficial thing she could get to her, since she is a potion master.
And so, they left the red castle, Leslie happily hummed all the way back to Aurora's castle.
'With this mom will be able to further improve her recipes… will the thing she invented work faster after that', she wondered, referring to the potion Veronica created to adjust their body type.
After getting what they wanted from the first two sects, they needed to wait for the sun to be replaced by the moon to go to the Purple Haze sect, luckily the wait wasn't that long since they killed some time in the awarding ceremony and before they noticed it was already night.
Thea's ability to see, make and cancel contracts was needed, so this time she will be tagging along with Aurora, as for who will be in charge of the girl's security, Aurora left Sylvie behind just in case, of course Horals was also watching over the "Harem" of his young master from the shadows, thanks to Rita's ability.
"We'll return in an hour at most", said Daimon as he jumped into the portal which Thea opened, they will be first going to the reunion with the Elemental Sea's branch of Black Wave, before going to the Purple Haze sect.
The reason is that the place chosen for the reunion isn't in the main island of the Purple Haze sect, but on a secondary one which was far from it and Aurora couldn't use the formation to transport them to there, but Thea could ignore spatial restrictions.
…
A couple of seconds later, Daimon, Aurora, Thea and Olivia appeared on the sky near a small gray island which had no other land masses nearby.
"I guess that explains why I never noticed them, this is one of the "worthless" islands, as the concentration of elemental mana is inexistent", mumbled Aurora, it was considered a bad omen to stay in these islands which were rumored to have been abandoned by the Elemental Sea.
"I'll openly go to the encounter, you can follow me in the shadows, knowing that person I'll be taken to another place to conversate and this is just a temporal meeting point", said Olivia.
Daimon nodded, Aurora snapped her fingers and their images waved before they disappeared, this was a visual illusion spell, of light affinity, unlike Erin's dark curtain, it only made them not reflect light, but their presences and everything else was still there.
Daimon just activated the hollow suit while Thea and Aurora erased their presences, they then followed a couple of meters behind of Olivia who descended from the sky and landed on the lifeless island.
Once they were on the island, Olivia walked towards a specific rock formation, Black Wave their own signal language so she deciphered where the one receiving her, should be waiting.
She made a series of knocks on the rock in front of her and after a couple of seconds the rock trembled as an opened appeared on it.
"Welcome lady Olivia, the leader is waiting for you, please follow me", a black masked man came out of the rock formation and greeted Olivia.
Olivia nodded and then she calmly entered, to not look suspicious she didn't try to talk nor turned to see the others, so she just entered the rock formation the usual way, the insides of the cave were pretty dark but the masked man had a lamp that barely illuminated the area of three meters around him.
The silence would have been uncomfortable if Olivia had anything to talk with the masked man, after walking for around five minutes they reached an open area were a magic circle was drawn.
'These guys are way more careful than the branch at the Mermen Sea, no wonder Aurora never caught a wind of them', thought Daimon.
Olivia had already explained the cautious nature of the leader of this branch, so they expected something like this, luckily Thea who is very skilled in space laws was with them.
The magic circle lit up and the masked man as well as Olivia disappeared, but before the portal fully closed, Thea stabbed her spear on it, they then jumped into it, the process only took an extra second so no one would notice it.
At the other side of the portal, they appeared inside of a large storage-like place, there were just a table and three chairs, the right side had to two while the other only had one.
Sitting on the right side of the table, there were a pair of tall figures covered from head to toe with black robes and masks.
"Welcome Olivia, normally I will suspect if you rushed all the way from the Mermen Sea to this place, but considering what happened in the last reunion, it's understandable, so what did you find out?", said the biggest figure in a neutral voice whose gender was impossible to tell.
Following Daimon's instructions, Olivia proceeded to tell the leader of Black Wave a bit of the history of the creatures, mostly she told them that one came to force them to submit and tried to use their son as a hostage for that.
She also described the weird true appearance they had and other minor things, Daimon wanted to see what their reactions will be, and he was surprised that their heartbeat didn't change, they were professionals in controlling their bodies apparently.
Daimon's eyes glowed as he injected mana into his infinity eyes, the identity of the leader of this branch has always been a mystery, Olivia and the others don't really hide how they look, their subordinates are the same they aren't forced to use masks unless they want to.
But this branch is different, not even the subordinates know who is their leader, also there is always a second person with the leader, so many think they are a couple.
Daimon's eyes bypassed the robe and then mask, and his pupils contracted a bit, he turned to see Aurora, but before he could talk, he noticed she was frowning.
Aurora actually came out of the light reflecting area and her mana pressure covered the area where the table was placed as she slowly said.
"What kind of joke is this!".
Judging by her angered expression, she probably realized who was behind the mask, and she clearly was pissed about it, not like Daimon could blame her, since he also recognized one of them.
Though their interaction was rather short, the masked figure on the left was the purple clothed girl who Cassy seemed to have something against, the niece of Purplecloud, Sarah.
And Aurora recognized the other figure, even with the mask on, it was Sarah's mother, Bell, how did she recognized her was unknown to Daimon, but the fact that the plan changed a bit thanks to this unexpected development, remained.
The two figures were naturally frozen, not only due to Aurora's pressure but out of the shock, but they actually removed the masks and slowly placed them next to them.
The fear Daimon expected to see on their faces wasn't there, instead of that they looked… sad?
