Chapter 266: The second layer of the magic ruin (part 1)

Luckily although Demon Light base shape was that of white flames, it wasn't fire perse, and instead combined the capability of battle aura of having a semi-corporeal state, because right now, Daimon could see the from time to time what was outside of the sphere he created.

It was like being inside of a pipeline, with an inconstant flow of water, that suddenly accelerated for a couple of minutes and then deaccelerated, forcing the sphere to stop in cold and causing Daimon's back to hit the sphere at a high speed.

The Risha sisters heard a sound similar to that of metals colliding each time that happened, and then turned to see Aisha who was leisurely hugging Daimon's chest.

"I don't think people bodies should make that sound?", mumbled Yvonne.

It wouldn't be strange if Daimon was reinforcing his body with battle aura, a knight do increase its physical strength with each breakthrough, but the natural defense of one's body doesn't change until the Knight Lord rank, previous to that, they have to reinforce themselves with battle aura whenever they need it.

If anything, she would have just assumed he was using metal affinity properties, which Daimon could do as metal was the third element in which he focused.

But since they were in close contact, even without using her special eyes she could tell Daimon wasn't circulating mana or battle aura through his body.

"Daimon's lineage is grants him quite a tough body, the base for a regular mage or knight, attacks to start having some sort of effect would be the Lord rank~", said Aisha as she poked Daimon's chest with her finger.

"That's a bit… too much", Liliana who grew surrounded by knights knew the abysmal increase in physical strength granted to them by each breakthrough.

Considering they were inside a magic ruin which for them was accessible only for those below the six-star ranked, even if Daimon could be both a mage and knight, he would at most be a five-star knight, meaning he could jump half four minor realms and the gap between two divisions, it was outrageous, or at least she has never heard of someone achieving something similar.

Daimon made a gesture with his hand and a wisp of Demon Light appeared floating on the air.

"Unlike others I can increase my physical strength and defense by training, but in exchange my battle aura doesn't help me reinforce my body, you wouldn't believe the harsh training Aura made me do… like lifting tons of weight while getting hit by a hammer".

"…", the Risha sisters were speechless, ultimately, they shook their heads, the more they got to know about Daimon, the more they realized that trying to judge any aspect of him with the standards they knew, was a bad idea.

…

That travel which involved them suddenly accelerating to an insane speed only to stop for a few seconds before starting all over again, continued for about one day, the girls even fell asleep at some point, using Daimon's body as a huggable pillow.

"Hang on, we are about to reach the end of the dimensional tunnel", the sphere stopped moving at a high speed one last time, and Daimon saw the exit of the dimensional tunnel about one hundred meters ahead of them, so he woke up Aisha and the others, in case it was needed he could use blink to take them with him, but they needed to be in contact for it work.

"Mm", the girls immediately opened their eyes and tightened their grips on Daimon's arms and chest, as they prepared themselves just in case.

Once the sphere passed through the exit, the disruption that was blocking Daimon's mana sense disappeared, so he was able to see their surroundings, but he had no time to process it, his body trembled and his organs agitated as if a large boulder was suddenly dropped on his shoulders.

Aisha immediately reacted, as she caught the smell of Daimon's blood, she looked upwards just to see a faint trace of blood coming from Daimon's mouth, the Risha sisters noticed the sudden change in Aisha's expression and they also turned to see Daimon.

"Dai…", as the girls were about to ask what was happening, the white sphere vanished, and they were all now surrounded by water, and that wasn't all, their bodies were put through an insane pressure and strong currents, that threatened with crushing their bones for a split of a second, before their images flashed upwards.

In intervals of one hundred meters, Daimon repeatedly used blink to make them get out of the whirlpool that was trying to suck them downwards to drown them.

'Darling!', while they were forced to keep their eyes closed, Aisha noticed that with each use of blink Daimon's body trembled a bit, and she was about to use one of her spells, when Daimon's voice echoed in her mind.

'Don't do it, this place punishes you each time you use mana or battle aura, my natural recovery can out heal the damage of using blink, so I'm only suffering a bit due to having used Demon Light earlier'.

Aisha slowly nodded, and she then focused on just hanging on tight to not be dragged by the strong currents, in any case she didn't have water or wind element affinities to help in this particular situation.

After a couple of dozens of times using blink, they were ejected from the sea, having gone through about four kilometers of water, the girls immediately took a deep breath and then looked downwards.

What they came from was a huge whirlpool in the ocean whose total diameter was about one hundred kilometers, and the currents it produced were so strong that even above on the air where they were right now, there was a certain sensation of being dragged towards it.

"Little Red!", Aisha shouted and the blood bat was summoned below them, once they landed on the large back of the blood bat, the girls immediately let go of Daimon and started inspecting him with their mana senses.

Daimon who was laying backwards on the blood bat, spat all the blood that accumulated on his mouth and then changed his position to be sitting cross legged.

"Damn, who the hell placed the exit of a portal at such a horrible place", the normally cheerful Leslie couldn't help but swear, upon seeing Daimon's current tired expression and the whirlpool that now looked smaller because the blood bat immediately flew upwards to get far from it.

Even Aisha who trusted the abnormal recovery capacities of her son, felt her heart clenching at the sight of Daimon coughing blood from time to time.

'Evangeline what the hell was that?', she said through the mental connection.

'That place was originally meant to be an exit, that's why the dimensional tunnel ended there, but apparently someone sealed it and then casted a curse on it… if any of you would have used mana there you would have lost a limb or two, I know how you feel but Daimon was the only one who could withstand the backslash'.

'Eve is right, I tried to come out from the inventory but Daimon stopped me from doing so', added Narasha.

After a couple of minutes, Daimon wiped the leftover bad blood on his lips and then took a deep breath, each time he used blink it felt like being stabbed on all his organs at the same time, and that was after it being reduced by his natural resistance against curses, and the Dull Nerves passive that lessened the physical pain.

Seeing the girls whose expressions were like those wives who are worried about the wellbeing of their husband, Daimon bitterly smiled.

"I'm fine… it did hurt like hell though, but I just need to eat something and I will recover to the max".

The Risha sisters let out a sigh of relief, Daimon wasn't the type to brag, if he said something, then they believed he could do it.

Lilia on the other hand took out a little box and then sat on Daimon's lap.

"Here let me help you da… Daimon", what Aisha took out of her ring was food she prepared and stored in her ring, she personally fed her son, knowing the Flesh Conversion passive would use the food to accelerate his recovery.

If they were in a safe place, she would have asked him to drink her blood, but this wasn't the moment to get romantic, they were in open sky on a hostile place, and so recovering was first on the list.

The Risha sisters watched Aisha feeding Daimon, and the three of them felt a bit jealous of how close they were, but ultimately, they were happy to see Daimon recovering some color.

Once Aisha finished feeding her son, she tapped her hand on the blood bat and ordered it to look for a safe place to land, while she accommodated Daimon so that his face rested on her lap this time.

The blood bat obeyed, the restriction on the sky that affected them at magic ruin before, wasn't present here, so the blood bat didn't have to flap its wings and instead smoothly glided on the air using mana and nearly doubling its previous speed.

"Watch out!", Yvonne who was inspecting their surroundings with her special eyes, suddenly urged Aisha and the blood bat dodged sidewards avoiding a spear that came from below.

Aisha snorted and then with a snap of her fingers, the clouds near them changed to a dark gray color, before electricity started flowing from them gathering on the tip of her index finger.

"Thunder Arrow", Aisha's soft voice was barely discernible as a loud thunder echoed through the sky, before a line of purple light was shot downwards to the approximate area from which the spear came from.

Then a few figures came from below the sea and avoided the attack, but one was a step too late and was hit by Aisha's Thunder Arrow.

"Aghhhh!", a lung tearing scream filled the whole place, the figure who was an armored humanoid person riding on top of what seemed to be a flying fish but of the size of an adult horse, became visible before it exploded in flames due to the heat of the lightning, dying in horrible pain.

"Hurley!", the other figures, who were similarly wearing full body armors and riding flying fishes, shouted seeing their comrade dying so miserably before they surrounded the blood bat, but they weren't the ones that drew the girl's attention, there was one guy behind all of them floating on the sky by himself.

A heavy pressure fell on the blood bat forcing it to go down a bit.

"Archmage", mumbled the Risha sisters, although the pressure didn't even compare to the one of their mothers, it was still an Arch ranked, and just being affected by its pressure made it hard to breath.

"I don't like to bully juniors, surrender or die", the Archmage's imposing cold voice made the air tremble, the blood bat was forced to step back again, but it still managed to not be completely suppressed by the enemy.

"Oh, really?", Daimon whose eyes were closed a moment ago, slowly opened them, then everyone's eyes contracted as an even greater pressure fell from above.

The armored guys on riding on their fishes tried to runaway but the three of them as well as the Archmage were all grabbed by a one-kilometer large arm made out of green battle aura.

From above a man's figure completely clad in a black armor which was leaking a green threatening battle aura, slowly descended until it was floating in front of the blood bat.

"Horals listen to the young master's command, how does young master want me to deal with those pests, can I suggest peel their skin and then bath them in a pit of salt?", by the end of his sentence, the black armored knight took out a small bottle of salt and a knife from within its armor as he made the gesture of peeling and "seasoning".

Daimon listened to the sadist suggestions of the Bone general he acquired that time he killed the smiling ghoul and he inwardly sighed.

"Just keep them in check and go look for a safe place to rest, don't kill them understood!".

"Yes… Horals listen and obey", the now discouraged black armored knight, flew upwards dragging the Archmage and the other guys with him, disappearing from Daimon's field of vision a moment later.

Daimon felt the interrogative gazes of the Risha sisters on him, and she cleared his throat.

"I have never tasked him to do something like that, he was crazy before it became my subordinate".
