At the area where the half emperors were sitting, Lars had a bad premonition after seeing all the participators from Alexander's class miserably loosing, so he tried to stir up some troubles.
"Argent matriarch, I though the Lefay family was punished by their ancestor's betrayal and had their offensive spells confiscated, perhaps there has been a "breach" in the seal which wasn't notified to us?".
Aura snorted at Lars suggestive tone.
"Since when your Furious Whirlwind academy has a say in the matters of my Wild Claw academy, Lars?".
Listening to Aura not even giving him the minimal respect of calling him by his tittle, Lars felt his supposition hit the spot, which made him inwardly smile, but he kept a calm expression on the surface before saying in a rightful voice.
"All the forces of the White Fang galaxy supported the motion of stripping the Lefay family out of their offensive spells as well as their Arch ranked records, so if anything like that happened it would affect us all, why don't we…".
Lars fell a sharp gaze piercing him and he noticed the field marshal glaring at him, which killed his courage in a split of a second, but he refused to back off this time, until he heard Aura saying.
"The forbidden knowledge level of the library isn't just guarded by the principal, vice principal Diana and Vice principal Leeris had the other keys, and without using the three of them at the same time, no one can get access to it, your accusations are quite serious this time".
Lars gritted his teeth, accusing the academy was one thing, but including the army and also the Leeris family made it a serious matter, especially because the Jolbaris also had some connections with the Leeris family.
"Ahem, if that's the case then I can only praise that Lefay girl from having created her own spell", said Lars as he inwardly cursed the universe for putting things difficult for him in these last days.
…
Back at the platform the assistants took Ramon's battered body to the infirmary, while they wondered how could a girl that looked so gentle like Loren had such a vicious spell.
Even the referees raised an eyebrow, the Lefay family had a complicated history, so it was a bit worrisome to see their young generation be so cruel, still their job was done so they remained silent while taking note to mention it to the field marshal later.
Loren slowly got off the platform only to be received by Calvin with a worried expression as he looked at the places where the needles pierced her, only after he was sure she didn't seem to present necrosis due to the exposition to darkness corrosion he let out a sigh of relief.
Loren blushed as she saw Calvin's making sure she was fine, but right now it wasn't the time for that, she felt an intense gaze on her back and looked at the stands were a middle-aged woman was staring at her with a frowned expression.
"So that woman was the one that came", she mumbled.
Calvin noticed Loren didn't seem to be happy even if she won and he chuckled.
"Today we should celebrate, how about we go to the happy wanderer, Lucas is there so we'll enjoy some of his cocktails, Daimon you and the shrimp can come too".
Michael snorted but he nodded, his master was lost somewhere so he had nothing else to do, and Haylee liked the snacks and drinks of the happy wanderer.
Daimon also agreed, since the tournament was done earlier than yesterday, it was about time for them to eat.
But as he was about to accept, he noticed all the spectators had already left and the staff was in the process of doing the same, Boris and Aliya as well as the Risha mothers, Aura, Aleah and even Arianna were coming to see them.
"Let's check on Yvonne and the others first", he said, which earned him a giggle from Aisha.
Daimon then stood up and walked to the resting area, followed by the others and Calvin which was giving him a "knowing gaze" and thumbs up, until Loren nudged him.
Besides, Daimon and his classmates, only the Risha mothers, Aura and Aliya entered the resting area to see how were the Risha sisters doing.
There was a private room for each participant, and also a common area, as soon as Daimon reached the common area, he was welcomed by the three sisters sitting on a couch each with their own situation to deal with.
Yvonne was covering her face with her hands and looked as if she wanted to dig a hole to hide, Liliana who although seemed to have regained her cool was slightly blushed, and last but not least, Leslie who was laying down using Liliana's thighs as her pillow and was looking intensely at the roof.
"Are you three, okay?", the three of them were suddenly startled by Daimon's voice, only then they noticed their mothers and the others came to see them.
Yvonne immediately looked at Aura with a hope filled expression before saying.
"Miss Aura, could it be possible for my match to not be repeated in the screens?".
Aura raised an eyebrow, before shaking her head as she smiled.
"I'm sorry, that is a contract we have with the other families that came, but don't worry, the repetition only lasts until you leave the platform".
Yvonne remembered the embarrassing things she said and did after using her legacy spell, especially how she acted towards Daimon before leaving.
"Thanks, for your understanding", she mumbled with a defeated expression.
Daimon offered them to come to the Happy Wanderer to eat with them, but their mothers kindly rejected him, saying that their daughters needed to rest a couple of hours just to make sure everything was okay.
After saying goodbye to them, Boris and Aliya also excused themselves, the rest of them were transported by Aura using space shift and appeared inside the Happy Wanderer not too long after.
Mireya and Solomon weren't here, but Lucas was behind the bar cleaning some cups, so he greeted them and started preparing some drinks for them.
Calvin on the other hand went to the kitchen to prepare some food, while Daimon and the others took a seat at one of the tables.
Aura couldn't help but look at Loren before saying.
"Little girl, your performance back then gave some old farts something to argue about, while I wouldn't normally inquire into someone's spells, I will have to answer at some point".
Loren took a sip of the drinks that Lucas just placed on the table, as she answered.
"Miss Aura… will my spell bring troubles to my family?", Loren didn't see anyone from her family coming, that's why she showed the result of her modified spell in the previous fight, but after the match ended, she saw the wife of the supreme elder from her family and knew things would get spiky.
But to her surprise Aura laughed as she patted her shoulder, resulting in a slightly weird scene, considering that in this form she was shorter than Loren.
"Don't worry about it, you developed that spell yourself so there is nothing they can say about it".
Loren let out a sigh of relief, Calvin also returned with some snacks and other dishes and she asked him to stay.
"To be honest it was an accidental discovery, it isn't like the corrosive light that humans had created, light element healing spells stimulate the natural recovery of the body, I just learned a way to "heal" just what I wanted, so that the vitality kept accumulating until the body couldn't contain it, it's like filling a glove with water until it's about to explode".
"The only problem is that while I'm doing it, I can't use major healings on anyone else but my target, or I would lose my focus and the result will be the contrary, I would just end up helping my enemy".
Mireya entered the bar just in time to hear Loren's explanation and she sighed.
'Of course, someone that finds Calvin attractive can't be normal', she thought as she joined them to eat.
The rest of the noon went by quite fast, besides Aleah asking Daimon to spar with her, just to be scolded by Mireya since tomorrow Daimon had to participate in the tournament, they spent a couple of hours discussing about the matches that were left, and the performance of Yvonne and the others, until it was time for them to leave.
While Daimon and the girls returned to their mansion, this time Loren asked Mireya if she could stay with them, probably because she didn't want to be aborded by the wife of the supreme elder, Mireya accepted to leave her occupy her room while warning Calvin to beat him if he tried to sneak in.
Meanwhile at the female dormitories, Yvonne, Leslie and Liliana were sitting in front of their mothers, an awkward atmosphere filled the room until Irina broke the silence.
"Little girls, you should have told us that you were able to use your legacy spells now… we would have explained more about them to you".
Even the normally carefree Veronica had a serious expression as she looked at Leslie.
"Especially you, it's easy for us to lose control after using "Feather Massacre, our crane lineage makes us really "passionate" you know, I was tempted to stop your match since you could have killed that brat", although Veronica tried to keep a serious face, she couldn't help but smile by the end of her speech.
Anya on the other hand sat Liliana on her lap and stroked her hair as if she wanted to comfort her.
"To think someone melted Lili's heart already", she said in her slightly cold but gentle voice.
Irina cleared her throat as she tried to keep her calm self.
"I know young people nowadays are quite… open about some things, but to think the three of you found your "center" in the same person, I guess we have to have another talk with lady Erin".
The three Risha sisters exchanged gazes and seeing the suffering in the eyes of the other they all sighed.
'Someone please help me', they thought.
