Chapter 108 Afternoon At The Happy Wanderer
Gabriel nodded, thanks to Daimon he now had a lot of things to do so he said goodbye and left the happy wanderer, not without thinking about the scene of Liz being all clingy with Daimon.
Marriages between a high ranked woman and a young heir aren't uncommon, but what is a rare sight is for the difference to be as big as a star ranked mage marrying an Archmage, still just like the rest of the world he thought that Liz and Elaine just chose Daimon to completely reject the proposition of Arthur.
But today that believe shattered when he saw how Liz behaved with Daimon, before she showed her remaining tails which proved her identity as an Archmage, she had the same vibes as any normal girlfriend.
Gabriel nearly tripped when he reached a conclusion which would for sure shock the wild claw galaxy, his eyes glowed with surprise and admiration.
"That is not a marriage out of convenience, somehow in these past eight years, that kid managed to win the heart of such a rebellious woman like Elizabeth Revy, which means is more than probable the same happened with the clan head of the Revy family… what a dangerous fellow".
While Gabriel was trying to review all what happened since the moment he approached Daimon at the restaurant, the person in question changed spot from the table to the couch where the other girls were sitting and feigning to not pay attention to what they heard a moment ago.
Well, most of the girls feigned ignorance because Yvonne didn't bother to do it.
"A star ranked mage negotiating with a half emperor… I guess at this point being surprised by anything you suddenly pull is a waste of energy".
Aisha smiled, "I told you that if you became our friend, you would never be bored right?".
Calvin stretched his legs, "Still a favor from a half emperor, damn that is like having a free wish".
Liliana shook her head, "It's not free though, interfering in a situation where there are half emperors involved will always have consequences… don't take it personally Daimon".
Daimon drank from his cup and then leant against the couch, "No problem, inf act I agree with you, but in this particular case whether I participate in this or not, there will be consequences, because the Jolbaris are not exactly the forgiving type".
Calvin suddenly felt a slight shiver, he looked at Daimon and saw him smiling, his violet eyes seemed to glow for a second which made Calvin feel a little apprehensive.
Daimon grinned, he looked at Liz which was a part of the reason of why Alexander hates him… and he totally didn't care, instead he rose his cup to toast with everyone.
"If they are going to be my enemies anyway, why would I not take advantage of every possible situation to mess with them, while also getting the favor of a half emperor, from their own family on top of that".
Liz rose her cup to accept the toast, "Still I didn't expect you to invite them to the family grounds, you are going to tell mom about it later you know?".
Daimon smiled, he was sure that Erin will agree, to have a half emperor coming to ask for something is already something to be proud of, and the one coming one is someone Erin knows because they are from the same generation, so it's going to be interesting seeing how would things turn out.
Leslie took a little sip from her drink and the looked at Aisha, "Speaking of that… Aisha isn't this weekend the one we were planning to go and visit the Revy family?".
"Mm?", Daimon gave Aisha a confused gaze which made her remember she still hasn't mentioned the subject to Liz and Daimon.
She gave cleared her throat and shrugged.
"Well Daimon invited a half emperor and one from the Jolbaris family on top, so I don't think there will be a problem for any of you coming over, what do you say Liz, they want to try the hot springs of the Revy family?".
"I don't have a problem, but the hot spring at my place is being remodeled and Elaine doesn't have one so... we'll have to use the one at the training facilities, or ask mom to let us use hers".
Daimon shook his head, "The mansion of the supreme elder is still unoccupied, I think we can use it as a guest house, I was planning to receive Gabriel and that half emperor there anyway".
Liz contemplated the idea for a moment, since the situation with Edgar, the node of the barrier was changed from the mansion of the supreme elder to the place where the punishment elder lives, so Daimon's idea was actually not bad.
"Sounds good, although I don't mind them staying in my mansion, there is people bound to complain since I'm the champion and all that stuff, but the mansion of the supreme elder isn't being used so no one can say anything".
"And the family branch of Edgar is going to be so pissed they might finally act so we can erase them all", she thought to herself.
The girls seemed happy with the answer, although they still had to ask permission from their families, Calvin on the other hand stole a couple of gazes at Loren like a hungry wolf would look at an innocent lamb.
The dormitories are separated, there are few exceptions like Daimon who had a private place which doesn't follow the rules of the academy, but now the heavens are bestowing him a chance to live under the same roof with Loren.
"Ahem, Daimon aren't you going to invite your most trusted brother over to your house?".
Daimon frowned his brows, "You guys can come if you want to… but just in case let me tell you that Liz and Aisha are also going to stay with the girls, for the weekend".
Michael looked at Calvin as if he was looking at an idiot.
"Let me simplify it for a muscle head like you, the only skin you'll see are a bunch of naked dudes at the hot springs of the Revy family".
Calvin snorted, "That sounds like something more fitting to your likings you short bastard, besides I'm more interested in the rumored shooting range of the Revy family than the hot springs".
Although Calvin said that, he was heart broken knowing he won't get to enter the hot spring with Loren.
Loren looked at Calvin which was clearly trying to feign innocence and she chuckled, she found Calvin quite funny, while also being honest… a bit too honest with what he likes, but still a good person.
She saw Calvin and Michael insulting each other, Leslie being slightly blushed because she accidentally drank something with alcohol and Liliana giving her water to help her sober up, even Yvonne which she thought was quite quiet was happily talking with Aisha.
Not to mention Daimon which did scare her at the beginning, and now he was laughing at Calvin while Liz was leaning her head against his shoulder.
"If people like them were in charge of the big forces, I bet my family would have not fall in such a precarious situation", she thought as she felt her eyes getting a bit teary.
"Mm?", Yvonne noticed it and she let her cup on the table.
"Do you feel bad Loren?".
Everyone's attention was drawn to Loren which made her feel a little embarrassed, but before she could explain Leslie interrupted her.
"Ahh I know, you are scared thinking Calvin will be staying with us, don't worry if he tries anything, we will follow miss Mireya's suggestion and dress him like a princess to make him reflect on his actions".
*Pffttt*
Everyone laughed imagining Calvin wearing a pink dress.
"No, it's not that… I was just thinking that I'm happy to have entered the same class as you all", she explained in a hurry.
Calvin smiled, "I told you they are different the other people you have met before".
He then turned to see Leslie and shook his head, "And you don't take after that violent woman, let me tell you she has remained single her whole life because of that same attitude of hers, no matter how many dates my grandfather has set for her, no one wants to marry such a...".
Calvin suddenly stopped, he turned his head around and felt a shiver ran through his spine seeing his aunt silently leaning her back against the wall while she looked at him, her veil made it so only her eyes were visible, but he could tell she was… smiling.
"Such a skilled and gentle woman", said Calvin in a try to mitigate the beating he was going to receive later.
Mireya approached them and seeing Loren was a new face, she presented herself.
"I'm Mireya Ghrish, a pleasure", she said in a polite friendly tone.
She then turned to see her nephew, and nodded.
"My father told me to make sure you were following the training, so later we will do a little "test" to see how are you doing".
Calvin didn't know whether he should laugh or cry, the training she mentioned was basically being beat up to augment the toughness of his body, which he has been neglecting for some time.
"I'm so screwed", he thought.
And just like that the noon passed, to Calvin's displease, Mireya stayed with them and not only that, she even told a few storied of when Calvin was younger back on their clan.
Once everything was over, they left the happy wanderer, they were having so much fun that they stayed more time than what they expected and it was getting dark, so they decided to walk together to the campus.
Loren was now a part of the elite class so she also changed from her old room to one that was right next to the one of the Risha girls.
As they passed next to an alley, Daimon frowned his brows which both Liz and Aisha immediately noticed, but nothing happened and Daimon didn't say anything so they just kept walking until they arrived at the campus.
