Chapter 235 Dimas Joins The Alliance
After injecting all the mana, he had in his mana pool about five times, the unrecognizable symbols on the inscription finally showed some changes, but only some parts "translated" in his eyes.
And no matter how more mana he injected into his eyes, nothing else was revealed, so Daimon concluded that was his limit, still he got to read three different words in the inscription.
'Eye, enemy, conceal… it's not too much but it's better than nothing I guess', thought Daimon, after making sure that his mother, Arianna and Aleah were standing behind Aura or Erin, they entered the through the gate.
Needless to say, but as soon as Arianna and Aleah saw Dimas who was contained inside a spirit formation, they were dumbfounded.
Aleah turned to see Daimon before saying.
"A magic beast who can talk, since when there is a fourth beast half emperor and why is it caged in this tundra at Lykos?".
Magic beasts were truly a mystery even up to this day, some had high realms but were basically animals, others would be cunning but weak and then there were those who had a beast core and were intelligent.
But even then, the only magic beasts who could talk were those who have reached the half emperor realm, there are very few of them in existence since most magic beasts are hunted upon reaching the peak of the Arch rank.
Lykos has the most of them due to the races here having lineages related to magic beasts, and there are only three of them in the whole galaxy and they have accepted not interfering in the feuds between families and forces as long they aren't bothered, or their offspring not being attacked unless they provoke others.
"Oh, you brought new friends this time", said Dimas as he rubbed what would be his chin, not forgetting to show he had arms in order to not be called a snake.
Daimon paid close attention to Erin's reaction and only after seeing her nod he relaxed, now that it was confirmed that Dimas had no bad intentions then he could treat him as a possible ally.
"Yeah, they wanted to come this time, since seeing an Emperor realm magic beast is a new thing for us".
Dimas posed as he flexed his arms and nodded at Arianna.
"Good to know, I'm Dimas, a handsome ice mirage basilisk, Daimon's friends are my friends… as long as he brought me food hahaha".
Daimon chuckled and then took out a storage ring with the things he has prepared for Dimas, most of its contents were food, but he also added a few books which didn't have anything that could be compromising for their galaxy, just in case.
"Now that I think about it, last time, the things you gave us weren't inside of the formation which is restraining you, how are you going to take the stuff inside the ring?".
Dimas's scales glowed in a dim blue light and a small hand made out of ice formed outside of the restraining formation around him.
"Just put the ring in that hand quick, I can only affect the outside when I use my domain and it drains quite a bit of my mana".
Daimon threw the ring and the ice hand caught it before it returned to the ground appearing inside the restraining formation in front of Dimas, who immediately rummaged its content.
Not even a second later he took out a few large pieces of grilled meat, and his eyes looked as if he was looking at the most delicious thing in the world, to the point that he was drooling.
"Ahhh, it has been so much time since I had something cooked, thanks Daimon", blabbed Dimas as he munched the large pieces of meat, with a gaze of delight.
'I guess everyone would be like that after spending for a couple thousands of years without eating anything', thought Daimon after seeing his slightly exaggerated reaction.
"Don't mention it, we had a deal so it's just me fulfilling my side of it".
Dimas suddenly stopped eating, of course he could notice the message behind Daimon's words, if he wanted more food then he had to offer something too, the problem is that he doesn't have anything else besides the things the Greenwich Sage left behind and some minerals he found in the tundra.
Nor he could exchange information with them, mostly because after so much time he couldn't remember that much besides his family but he never got too involved in the things of it, he only remembered the fire spirits because they appeared and now Daimon had them serving under him, so there was not much he could use as a bargain chip.
"Oi, Daimon, would you like to marry one of my sisters?".
Daimon nearly tripped listening to that proposal out of the blue.
"You really liked that food huh?".
Dimas shook his head, realizing his words might be strange for the people of this place, he elaborated.
"In my culture, the best way to unite families is through a marriage connection, besides I had like five or six in the past, so now I should have about twelve, I'm pretty sure one would be willing to step in".
Daimon shook his head and then took out a magic contract out of his storage ring.
"In my culture both parties who share an interest, sign an agreement, take your time to read it and give me your answer…".
Daimon didn't finish his words, when Dimas took the contract and bit the tip of his tail letting a few drops of blood which had a light blue tone to stain the contract.
To Daimon's surprise the contract fulfilled its purpose, and properly made them allies, the rules were simple, to not harm the other and lend a hand if it was within their possibilities and was needed.
"Deal, next time if you can bring me some bird's meat, we ice basilisk are sworn enemies with them, because their meat tastes really good".
Daimon gave up trying to find logic behind Dimas's actions, although he said he was part of the younger generation of his family, Daimon has started thinking he was even younger, maybe what should be about 10 years old for his race.
'A pre-pubescent with the power to erase a planet, locked below the ground of Lykos… whoever thought this was a good idea should receive a beating'. He thought.
"Noted, I also brought some things for you to read, so you don't get bored, I will travel for a week, speaking of which, does the words "eye, enemy, conceal" mean anything to you?", asked Daimon.
Dimas got lost in his thoughts for a split of a second, but ultimately, he shook his head.
"No, at the place where I lived there were only members of the ice mirage basilisk race, I have only heard of other races thanks to my dad, but i was yet to see one until I appeared here.
"Okay if I discover anything I'll come to ask you".
Dimas nodded as he looked through some of the books, there was not really too much to do here, so after finishing their deal Daimon said goodbye as he noticed Dimas wanted to eat more, but he was holding back a bit in front of them, which was understandable, as intelligent as he might be, his instincts as a magic beast were strong.
After saying goodbye, Aura took everyone outside of the cave before they returned to the academy, leaving Aleah on at the Happy Wanderer and Arianna at the entrance of her father's mansion at the academic city.
"Don't forget to tell Lana she can't refine the stalactite milk until we return or she will surpass the five-star mage realm, whether she wants it or not".
Arianna nodded as she kept the bottle in her storage ring, she had no other things to do, right now since Aura ordered her to let her muscles rest to recover to the fullest, so a quick visit to Lana's place would not hurt her.
Daimon and the girls then returned to the mansion and as soon as they appeared in the living room, Aisha, Liz and Elaine hugged Daimon and gave him needy eyes.
"Last time you did mom and Aura only, tonight is our turn, well Aisha doesn't count, she will have you for herself during the whole thing~", said Liz as she rubbed her face against Daimon's.
"I want too", mumbled Liz with a blushed face.
It was still sunny outside, but since the girls wanted some love, Daimon was happy to oblige.
…
While Daimon was rolling on the bed with Liz and Elaine, inside her private space, Evangeline was in a bit of a predicament, as the administrator of the system, she was informed of the next function Daimon would unlock, if he met the requirements.
'Out of all the possible functions… this one, the guy who created this system was a pervert, which is quite convenient considering my host is the same", she mumbled before she destroyed the notification.
And so, the weekend went on, everyone was busy with their respective training, or refining their treasure to do a last-minute advance, with the exception of those at the five-star realm, because advancing would crew them over.
As morning came, Daimon felt something tickling his face, and when he opened his yes, he saw Erin teasing him with her tail.
Daimon chuckled and then dragged her into his embrace before he kissed her, he noticed that the other girls besides Aura and Erin weren't in the bed, and judging by the delicious smell lingering in the air, they were preparing the breakfast.
The waving moves on the blanket caused by Aura's tail wagging gave her away, so Daimon dragged her into his arms too, he rubbed both Aura and Erin's tummies, remembering all what they did made him laugh.
Daimon kissed Aura's lips and then got up.
"Get up you two, we need to prepare to leave… Erin you are in charge while I'm gone", said Daimon as he handed Erin a small black box.
In a rare occasion, Erin put on a serious expression as she accepted the black box.
"Mm".
After that, they joined Aisha, Liz and Elaine for breakfast and a bath, once they were ready, they went to the Happy Wanderer to wait for the others, those who bought a spot from Daimon already left since the place they were going was at the border of the Wonder Myriad stellar chart.
