"Speaking of that, now that you and Mellie will be in the same team, you need to know who to be aware of".


    "As the time went by, the families of the wives of the king wanted me to resign my tittle as queen to one of them, especially the mother of the crowned prince, whoes from the Arcarius family, but I refused which ended up creating fractures in the rtions that some of the nobles had with the royals".


    "I guess you already noticed that even as the queen I couldn''t directly teleport myself to this city, and the reason is very simple… the niece of the current n head of the Malleus family or the Trident Marshal, is one of the three wives of the king".


    "Long story short I can''t directly appear in the cities of the families who had a marriage rtionship with the king, which include the Malleus, Vs and Keran families".


    "In total there are three princes and two princesses, the crowned prince Terry Malleus is the older of them, then we have the princess from the Vs family, Daphne Vs, the next is Mellie who got her tittle due to being my little sister andstly, the twin princes of the Keran families".


    Daimon frowned, there were more royals than what he expected, which meant there will be more troubles to deal with.


    "So, I guess, it''s safe to assume they will be going after us?", he asked.


    Ae shook her head.


    "Not exactly after you, both the beast hunt and the three-art tournament are team events, but nothing bans "alliances" between the teams, so as you can probable already guess, the royals are sort of like the "captains" of the teams, and they will first eliminate those who aren''t in an alliance before fighting themselves".


    Daimon shrugged, as he thought.


    ''So, I''ll be facing the whale shark, hammerhead shark and narwhal once again''.


    It didn''t really matter though, he had to win the beast hunt due to his mission anyway, so for him, regardless of Mellie being in his team or not, he''ll have to fight against everyone anyway.


    The queen saw that Daimon''s expression didn''t quiver at all and she inwardly nodded in affirmation.


    "That being said, there are exceptions who can keep up with the royals, the representative from the neo nobles and the middle son of the ckfin Duke are the ones thate to my mind right now".


    "Anything else I should know about the ones that will attend the beast hunt?", asked Daimon, but the queen as well as Mellie both shook their heads in response.


    "That''s as far as I can confirm, there is no list of the onesing and some years not all attend, but those are the ones who had never skipped the two main events besides the royal banquets".


    "If there isn''t anything else, we should return to the mansion, this prison isn''t particrly a good ce to be", mumbled Mellie.


    Ae smiled at her sister and then with a wave of her hand a portal transported them back to the living room of her mansion.


    She then took out hermunication device whish was a small octagonal te, and softly snorted.


    "I need to tend to some small matters, feel free to enjoy themodities of the mansion, if you need anything just ask Martha, she''ll also bring you what you asked me earlier in a couple of minutes".


    "Mina don''t let Mellie skip her training session, I''ll return for the dinner", after saying that and without leaving Mellie say anything, Ae disappeared from the room.


    As soon as the queen left, her security head, the expressionless Mina dragged Mellie who had a bitter smile expression with her.


    "We should return to our rooms too", said Daimon.


    "Mm", the girls had no objection so they walked towards the rooms the head maid assigned to them.


    Daimon stole a gaze at Aisha before he talked with her directly to her mind through the mental connection.


    ''Mom I''ll be catching up with the new abilities I got''.


    ''Don''t worry darling, I will pay those three a visit so we can have a "girls talk", butter you''ll have to spoil me in exchange~''.


    Daimon chuckled at his mother and they took separate ways, to the Risha sisters surprise, Aisha tagged along with them while Daimon stayed alone in their room.


    Or at least that''s what they thought, because as soon as Daimon closed the door behind him, Narasha came out of the inventory in her light body form.


    "Eve is sleeping, can I make youpany Daimon?", she asked.


    Daimon jumped on the bed and amodated himself face up, with the pillow reasting below his head.


    "Sure,e here", he said as he tapped the space next to him on the bed.


    Unfortunately, Narasha''s form had no facial factions, and was only femininely shaped because she wanted to look more like a person, Daimon once asked if she couldn''t imitate her true appearance, but her answer was pretty surprising.


    Basically, she didn''t have one, even she didn''t know how she "looked", since she was born, the only thing she had was her capacity to think and her voice, so technically her body was Disaster, but she existed apart from the sword.


    That''s one of the reasons that made Daimon put more effort into bing stronger, since Evangeline kind of mentioned, that her grimoire was supposed to cover all her "needs", but it will be faster if Daimon advances as he is the host of the system.


    Just like that extra skill Aura had, which practically solved her only "weak point" in other words, long distancebat, or Erin''s Dark Firmament which solved theck of darkness mana in sunny days, their grimoires existed toplement their paths, simr to how the system grew ording to Daimon''s wishes.<novelnext></novelnext>


    Still, that didn''t prevent Narasha from giggling and thenying down on the bed next to Daimon, she even rested her head on his shoulder, as she wouldn''t distract him because she had no weight being an agglomeration of light in this form.


    Daimon smiled and then he focused his attention on the interface of the system, there has been quite a lot happeningtely, so that he hasn''t properly reviewed thetest changes, like the mission temple.


    He only saw the lineage temple function, because it triggered the trial after he drank the Shark Blood liqueur.


    [Mission Temple]


    [Having entered into contact with other system bearers, the host has fulfilled the requirements to unlock the mission temple function, from now and onwards, missions will trigger due to certain specific actions or situations (The host will be able to reject, but some rewards won''t be offered twice, special missions will be avable for seven days, if not confirmed they will disappear)]


    Daimon then scrolled down and saw the three separated screens.


    [Ongoing Missions]


    [Stealing from the hero (Clear Water Kingdom): The hero of light Adam was prepared the stage to findpanions and allies in the Clear Water kingdom, but its way was blocked by the host at a critical part of the event (Completion rate 30/100) overscore possible <!>]


    [Permanent Missions]


    [Novice Appraiser Promotion…]


    [Novice Magic cksmith Promotion…]


    [Novice Alchemist Promotion…]


    [Novice Swordsman Promotion…]


    [Novice Gunslinger Promotion…]


    [Novice Melee Combatant…]


    Daimon stopped scrolling as the list continued, he already understood the concept of the second screen, what surprised him was that he was considered a "Novice" in swordsmanship, when ording to Aura his skill was refined enough to put most Lord ranked knights to shame, partly because he has trained a lot while in the state of Core Synchrony.


    Narasha looked at the screen Daimon was seeing and she shared her opinion with him.


    "I remember you told me you only bought the fundamentals from a lot of professions, because the books for the next level were locked in the shop, the evaluation of the system might be based on that instead of your actual skill".


    Besides Daimon himself and Aura who was the one that taught him, Narasha was the one that knew better how good was Daimon with the sword, and she was sure he was by no means a novice after all.


    Daimon nodded, his battle prowess wasn''t reflected by his actual either mage or knight realm, which was shown in his status screen, so the system couldn''t calcte some things, which was good as he didn''t want topletely depend on it.


    But what truly caught Daimon''s attention was the third screen of the mission temple.


    [Special Missions]


    [As a reward for having unlocked the mission temple, the system has awarded the host a one-time special mission without a penalty]


    [Unveiling the truth: Discover who is behind the chaos in Neptune and expose him in front of your allies <!>]


    Daimon clicked on the "!" icon and then the details of the mission showed.


    [Reward: Random Function Pass X1]


    [Penalty in case of failure: None]


    [Remaining review time: 5d 8h]


    Needless to say, Daimon immediately epted the mission, as there were no downsides to it, if he managed toplete it, he will get an interesting reward if not, then nothing happened.


    He also was interested in the overscore part, so he clicked on it and got a short exnation of it.


    [Overscore: Avable for some missions and trials, if the performance of the host goes over 100%, the count will re-start at the next reward tier (low, middle, high, irregr)]


    He was surprised to see the word "Irregr", which happened to be the same ssification as his most powerful skill… Core Synchrony.


    Besides that, there was something that made him frown, the fact that there was an unknown being pulling the string the strings in the shadows, which wasn''t Adam or Marcus.


    "Another system bearer perhaps", he mumbled before he shrugged.


    Whoever was hiding to be the fisher, will be surprised to see that instead of a little fish has attracted a shark with his bait.
