While Aura stayed behind, Aisha, Liz followed Yvonne and the others including Mireya and Dana towards the changing rooms of the training grounds, but before their figures disappeared, they heard Erin speaking in their minds.


    "Tonight we have something to attend to, be prepared to leave at any moment".


    "Mm", both Aisha and Liz mentally nodded.


    Daimon then looked at Michael, Calvin and Gabriel which were left aside.


    "You three can go to the men''s changing room, there is also a spring there".


    Calvin sighed before leaving with a defeated expression, Michael followed him just in case Calvin decided to try something stupid, as for Gabriel he didn''t feel taking a bath so he returned to the guest''s mansion to wait for his sister.


    Once they all left only Daimon, Aura, ine and Erin remained.


    Erin gave Aura and interrogative gaze, ording to the deal only her daughter and her were supposed to apany Daimon for the rest of the weakened.


    Aura softly snorted feeling Erin''s slightly hostile intention.


    "Don''t look at me like that you old vixen, we both have a way to detect when that intervention monolith of your ex''s family is deployed, your heart mirror should have activated too right?".


    Erin pouted before she clung onto Daimon''s right arm.


    "Aura is being mean to me, my husband you must stand up for me".


    Daimon raised an eyebrow, not because Erin''s act, but because of what Aura mentioned, if Erin''s heart mirror activated then there was something which could be troublesome happening soon.


    It was specially like that because ine also looked surprised by Aura''s words, which means her heart mirror didn''t advise her, like it happened for her mother.


    Daimon then extended his free arm towards Aura, since Erin hasn''t told him anything about her heart mirror reacting, then he decided to tease her a little and the best way to do it was to spoil Aura while ignoring her.


    Aura smiled when she felt Daimon dragging her into his arms, her cute wolf tail wagged when she felt the warm of her lover enveloping her, and her heart felt sweet when she heard him tenderly speaking at her as he caressed her ears.


    "My cute Aura is the best".


    Aura gave Erin a condescending gaze, before saying.


    "Although I don''t have the ability of that old vixen, I already know how the space protected by an intervention monolith looks like, and since only three people should have one and none of them lives in the ce where I saw it, then there must be something important happening soon… unfortunately for the details you will have to ask Erin".


    Daimon patted Aura''s head a couple of times before turning to see the other woman in his arms, Erin was looking away as if she was ignoring Daimon, but she couldn''t remain like that when she felt Daimon caressing her long fluffy tail.


    "Be a good a girl and tell me".


    "Wuuhh ?", Erin cutely bit her lower lip, but after one second, she couldn''t resist to let out afortable sound before giving up.


    "I was going to tell you after the meeting with the lightning assassin, but Aura ruined the surprise, my heart mirror gave me a warning that something could potentially affect us, is going to happen tonight, approximately at one thousand kilometers from the city".


    "If webine the timing and the fact that I noticed the activation of an intervention monolith made me realize that old bastard Ernest is making some kind of move tonight".


    Ernest Revy thought he managed to steal the prototype of an intervention monolith by making it look as if the thing was destroyed in a test, a long time ago.


    Unfortunately for him he fell in a trap, Erin ced a spying magic formation linked to a special sigil lector inside the core of the monolith, so that whenever it got activated, she could know where.


    The best way to stop someone from trying to achieve something was to make him believe he made it, so she turned a blind eye to Ernest stealing the prototype.


    In other words, Ernest basically dug his own grave so many years ago, which was understandable considering he fell in the schemes of the most cunning woman of the gxy.


    Daimon contemted things for a moment, to be honest with the punishment Edgar got was enough, although he tried to marry Liz and ine with Alexander, he didn''t directly harm them.


    Also, however things were, the truth was that Edgar was Liz and ine''s father, that''s why Daimon didn''t bother to get rid of him, but now things were different, given the current state of the ster chart, there was no ce for unnecessary risks.


    A cold light shed through Daimon''s eyes, attacks from outside of the wall are easy to defend, but an internal strife is not the same, since he will be leaving to the exploration then it was time to get rid of any lose ends that could be a threat.


    Daimon smirked, remembering a certain gift he gave Erin some time ago which wille handy in this situation.


    "Erin prepare some "evidences", tonight we''ll get rid of the spine that has been bothering us, one thousand kilometers isn''t a small distance for someone that can''t use space shift so that guy''s house should be empty right now".


    Erin nodded knowing what Daimon meant, she already gave Ernest a chance to repent of his actions out of respect to her mother which wanted the n to stay in one piece, so now that they were getting funny ideas… it was time to remove the infection from the root.


    A faint trace of a conflicted light appeared in ine''s eyes, but then she remembered the miserable fate that would have awaited her and Liz if Erin wouldn''t have returned in time, when Edgar sneakily brought Arthur into the n.


    Then her gaze became determined, off course that little moment of hesitation didn''t escape Daimon''s eyes, but that''s how things needed to be, in this world strength is the golden rule, if they were weaker then Daimon didn''t doubt that Edgar would have killed him if he had the chance.


    Erin then giggled; her next words broke the serious atmosphere that had been building up.


    "We''ll leave in a couple of hours, but for now, what do you say, do you want to steal a peek to the hot spring for the old times".


    The corner of Daimon''s lips trembled as he shook his head.


    "No thanks".


    Aura gave Erin an usatory gaze before sighing.


    "Sometimes I really wish I would find a new best friend who isn''t crazy you know?".


    Erin shrugged at Aura.


    "If we don''t enjoy life then what''s the point of living for thousands of years".


    The rest of the day was quite normal, the girls enjoyed their time at the hot springs, Michael had a small date with Haylee to Calvin''s disgust.


    In a weird turn out of events Veronica, Anya and Irina separated form their daughters to not "bother" them, although Yvonne and the others felt a bit suspicious about it, they took the chance to have a girl''s day with Aisha, Loren and Dana.


    Mireya on the other hand dragged Calvin to be her "assistant" as she visited the fashion area of themercial district, as a punishment for having being too slow to tell his grandfather about the alliance Daimon was creating.


    After seeing the lightning assassining all the way from wherever he was, then she of course advised her father toe, but due to thete notice she got lectured which transformed into anger towards Calvin for not having told her, that Michael''s master was also a half emperor.


    She didn''t pay too much attention before, but now she noticed there was a representative of each of the families or forces which backed up all the members of the elite ss, with the exception of Loren which''s family had some internal troubles.


    As soon as the sun settled, Aisha and Liz excused themselves and returned to their room before taking out a ck case out of their storage rings, a simr scene happened back at Erin''s mansion where Daimon, Aura, ine and Erin spent the day.


    …


    The night at Lykos was cold but well illuminated thanks to the three moons what were near the, but today it was clouded, thunders reverberated through the sky whichbined with the whistling sound of the wind made all the habitants of the to seek refuge in their houses.


    About one thousand kilometers away from the Revy family main grounds, there was a neutral city called Redven, it was neutral because none of the bigger families was in charge of it, instead it was managed by amercial association.


    Inside the mansion of the Redven''s city lord, something like a social event was currently being upheld, maids wearing revealing outfits twirled around like butterflies as they brought food and sses containing different drinks for the guests.


    Some of them even gave seductive gazes at the guests before apanying him or her upstairs, in some cases the guest in question simply dragged the maid and started engaging in intercourse with them.


    The room was filled with moans and a strong lewd smell, asscivious as the previous scene might seem it wasn''t something umon, many nobles indulged in the pleasures of flesh.


    The door of the mansion opened and a tall handsome man entered followed by two figures fully covered with ck robes, without anyone paying special attention to them, the three new guests entered the kitchen and after taking out a medal with skull engraved on it, a magic circle illuminated on a wall revealing a secret passage.


    At the other side of the passage, Ernest and his supporters were sat on a table with slightly angered faces.


    Ernest looked at the handsome man and snorted.


    "You arete".


    The handsome man smirked revealing his teeth were ck instead of white and simply ignored Ernest''sins before taking a seat.


    "Of course, I''m, I felt hungry so I stopped to take a snack in the way".


    The sinister voice of the manbined with that smile full of ck teeth made Ernest''s supporters tremble.
