Chapter 207: The second phase of the tournament

Calvin listened to Aleah suddenly asking to enter the academy and the first year's elite class on top of that and he bitterly smiled.

"We still need to beat the other elite class, and I doubt any of them has the balls to fight against you though".

Seeing Diana's eyes glowing with hope, Boris interfered.

"Don't worry about that, tomorrow's matches have another meaning for the first years, those who lose will be removed from the elite class… the principal will make the official announcement, so I won't say more".

"Besides, Daimon will have the right to bestow a position to others in the elite class, as long as he remains as the first rank", added Aliya to seal the deal, how could she let a new source of "knowledge" such as Aleah escape from her eyes after all.

Diana didn't know whether she should laugh or cry, that pair of uncle and niece didn't even let her put up some fight and directly cut her chances of getting a talent as big as Aleah.

'Whatever, the inter-academy at the end of the year will be a good moment for her to see the superiority in battle techniques and tactics of the army'.

Aleah then turned to see Daimon and she smiled at him.

"Then it's settled, you'll give me a position in the elite class right Daimon?".

Aisha, Liz, Elaine and even Erin raised an eyebrow, normally people don't become so casual after meeting, specially among nobles, Daimon is an exception as he for some reason doesn't like etiquette, something the girls relate to the hatred he has towards the Naktis, vampires do tend to act in a noble and refined way after all.

If they were to know he simply isn't used to such stuff due to his past life, their expressions would be quite interesting to see, leaving that aside, apparently Aleah was the same, in fact she seemed to be quite informal and comfortable with Daimon after their spar.

Daimon nodded as he jumped out of the platform.

"Sure, you'll have to wait until we return though, if you accompany us to see the tournament, I can introduce you to my "junior sister", with whom you'll be making team inside the magic ruin".

Aleah's eyes glowed as she heard the words junior sister, she saw his perfectly toned body which wasn't too bulky nor to slim but perfectly balanced while still having such an imposing physical strength, so it was obvious his training regimen isn't by any means normal.

"If she is similar to you, then I don't mind lending a hand… but if she is an herbivore then forget it, I'll rather hunt solo, than having someone dragging me down".

Calvin facepalmed, thanking to the heavens that Aura wasn't here to hear Aleah call her disciple "herbivore".

Daimon on the other hand chuckled, her tone was full of pride but it wasn't arrogant at all, it was as if she was just stating the truth.

He couldn't help but find Aleah's personality rather fresh and amusing, someone so straightforward is easy to befriend, at least for him who wasn't used to the scheming way to be, of the nobility of this world, until Erin taught him of course.

"You'll understand after seeing today's matches", said Daimon which made Aleah feel a bit expectant, as there might be other people with which she could warm up before fighting against Daimon later.

After that everyone went to the restaurant to grab something to eat, on the way Daimon noticed other students giving him some weird gazes, which made him think that maybe someone was spreading rumors about him, but after putting some attention to some whispers here and there, he chuckled.

"You see, the demon has brought another two girls from the outside".

"A werecat and another member of the Revy family, lucky bastard".

"I mean he is the first ranked of the elite class, it would be weird for him to be single".

And other similar comments were being gossiped between the other students, normally such things don't cause any reaction, the teachers simply take it as something normal, and the other girls can't hear it, but this time one of the people in question had a really good hearing sense.

Aleah's hears slightly twitched and she couldn't help but steal a gaze at Daimon, only now she noticed that he was indeed surrounded by girls, earlier she didn't pay any attention, since Calvin and Michael were also in the same "position", as all the other members of the class were girls.

But to her surprise Calvin was keeping some distance with the girls, the only the exception was Loren, and Michael had Haylee holding onto his arm.

"It seems that even your reputation is outstanding, Daimon", she said in a playful voice.

While the other members of the class thought Aleah was referring to the fact that other students opened a way for Daimon as soon as they saw him, Aisha, Liz and Elaine softly giggled at it.

"Ahem, everyone is free to believe whatever they want", said Daimon avoiding the bullet.

'The people of this world surely like gossiping, go train you freaking magic or something', he thought as he glared at the other students.

Boris, Aliya and surprisingly even Diana stayed with them for the lunch break, luckily the table assigned to Daimon was made to fit the whole class which is about thirty people, so everyone could sit wherever they wanted to.

Besides some chatting about random subjects, what stood the most was the large number of empty plates that piled up next to Aleah, but no one found it weird, unlike mana who can be taken from the surroundings, battle aura is produced within the body, and knights can take more advantage of the nutrients contained in the flesh of magic beasts than mages.

Daimon was the same, in fact he has never reached the point of feeling "stuffed", even after eating the meat of high ranked magic beast at most he was satisfied.

'I wonder were all the mana that my body absorbs but is rejected by my core goes', thought Daimon as he munched a piece of grilled meat.

Once everyone had their fill, Boris guided them to the stadium, just like yesterday there was a huge line of students that wanted to get the free seats, the difference was that no one tried to cause problems to Daimon and the others.

"How weird, isn't this the time of the day when Alexander comes to be a pain in the ass", said Calvin, he recognized some of the guys that were hanging around with Alexander yesterday, but he wasn't anywhere to be seen.

'I don't think, he'll be allowed to be near any man for q long time', though Daimon as he inwardly laughed.

Diana said goodbye to them and went to the skybox of the principals, not without stealing a last gaze to Aleah.

"Two of the participants of today come from the army's academy, just a little reminder, the techniques they will be using are just the basics".

Aleah didn't pay too much attention to Diana's words, although she didn't know who fought yesterday, she knew who were the top ten of the second year's elite class, and all of them were nobles and were affiliated to the Wild Claw academy one way or another.

And she wasn't interested since those from the ranks eleven to twenty were probably all middle stage four star ranked mages or knights, and if they had abnormal fighting skills that surpassed their realms like Daimon, they wouldn't be that low in the ranks.

"I don't think you should underestimate those guys from the army, they are among the top fifteen despite them being an early stage four star ranked mage and a knight", said Daimon as he remembered the two people without any beast characteristics from the two groups that appeared yesterday.

Aleah leisurely sat on the couch as she stretched her arms, as she spoke with all naturality.

"That's what I'm talking about, to be considered decent you need to be able to cross at least one major realm".

Noticing the weird gazes, she was receiving, Aleah scratched the back of her head.

"… That's what I believe at least".

Daimon and the others didn't know what to say, luckily everyone here had a higher battle prowess compared to their realms, so there were no hard feelings, in fact the only one surprised here was Calvin.

'Since when you take into account how other people feels about your sharp tongue?', he thought.

Many memories flashed through Calvin's mind in a split of a second, before he looked at Loren's calm and refined appearance.

'I guess she and that wild aunt of mine are guilty, for my strike zone'.

…

While the first year's elite class was enjoying the time previous to the start of today's matches, in the resting area, the second year's elite class was sitting, the tense atmosphere was suffocating.

Arianna, Gina, Lana and one of the two guys from the Argent family were sitting next to each other, while the Jester Risha, Caleb Allier, Harald Faresh and Samuel Jolbaris were glaring at them.

Even before the matches started everyone already had their own grudges to resolve, and they were all placed in the same room for the last one hour prior to the start, so you can imagine the smell of powder that was present in the resting room.

But then a sudden voice interrupted the atmosphere as someone entered the room.

"You all look really confident in getting the spot, that this is a mere competition for your ranks at this point am I right… and you call me arrogant humph!".

Arianna raised an eyebrow at the newcomer, the foxlike ears and tail gave him away as a member of the Revy family.

'I guess that just like among the Argent there are always people that doesn't agree, the same happens in the Revy family' she thought seeing the newcomer sitting next to her other cousin.
