Chapter 15: Hot springs

Now that everything was cleared Elaine and Elizabeth guided them to the room they will be staying, since this was Elizabeth's personal mansion no one will enter here without permission and Elizabeth lived alone since she used magic formations to maintain the mansion clean.

Daimon was the first one to enter the room, it was a quite spacious room with a couch, a closet and a desk, the beds on used by the Revy family members were quite big since below the Archmage rank they could not hide their tails away so they needed some extra space for them, the room also had its own bathroom which Aisha was happy to see, after all she was a lady of noble birth and it was getting a bit uncomfortable to shower without shampoo and soap.

But Elizabeth stopped her.

"I built a special area to bathe, you know the culture of my race is quite fond of nature since we use spiritual magic, so I have a hot spring of my own which was conditioned to become a bath, what do you say Aisha want to try it?".

Aisha smiled.

"Yes, that is one of the things I missed back on the red mist planet".

Elaine nodded.

"I need to relax too so will I will also go; besides it's been a while since we took a bath together, come with us little Daimon I'm pretty sure you will like it ♥".

Daimon could see the predatory gaze on both Elizabeth and Elaine and he knew this will not have a good end for him, but his mother already agreed so he had no other option but to accept.

"Fine", he answered.

Elizabeth dragged him along while guiding them to a hidden stair which led to the basement of the mansion where the hot spring was, the whole area had a barrier set up to avoid "curious" eyes, although Daimon was quite hesitant first once he saw the scenery of the hot springs, he was marveled.

The basement was a huge open space that was practically occupied by a natural formed pool, surrounded by trees, the floor was made out of some kind of wood and there was also a garden the whole place was designed to relax and enjoy the calmness, Daimon noticed there was a slight amount of steam coming from the water.

"This is a paradise", he thought, Lykos had a low temperature by nature that's why Aisha heated the water in which they bathed on the cave but now the water of this place was naturally heated by the planet itself and the temperature of it was perfect.

Elaine saw Daimon admiring the place and she regretted not having built a place like this on her own mansion.

"Tsk, I bet this was planned by Elizabeth since she spoke with Aisha".

One they reached the entrance of the pool Elizabeth showed them some laundry baskets before she started undressing,

"You can leave your clothes there, now let's go in… Daimon come with take a bath with big sister ♥".

Once Elizabeth finished taking off her clothes, she also undressed Daimon even when he tried to refuse claiming he could do it himself, Elaine and Aisha followed did the same and the four of them entered the pool, as expected the warm water gave a really comfortable feeling.

They leaned against one of the rock walls of the pool with the exception of Daimon that was sitting on Elizabeth's lap.

Speaking of Daimon, he closed his eyes first because it was quite a relaxing sensation and second because he didn't know where to look at, no matter the direction there were beautiful naked bodies at both his sides and not only that but Elizabeth's bare breast were pressing against the back of his head.

Surprisingly Evangeline didn't say anything so after a moment he calmed down remembering that right now he was a little child so there wasn't anything bad with him taking a bath with them, "it's just a bath, I always enter with mom so there is nothing to worry about".

At some point Elaine took out a bottle from her storage ring and a couple of little cups.

"Let's drink some wine to celebrate the three of us calling each other sisters again". she poured some wine into the cups and passed them to Aisha and Elizabeth.

"Cheers", the three said before drinking the wine.

Elizabeth didn't finish the wine on his cup, instead she gave it to Daimon.

"Try it little Daimon, it's important for a man to learn how to drink if you want to be popular with girls ♥, you don't mind right Aisha? It's not a strong wine after all".

Aisha considered it for a moment but she allowed it, this wine was called soft blossom and its alcoholic content was quite low so there was nothing wrong on letting her son try a bit of it.

"Fine but only a bit", having gotten his mother's permission Daimon drank a sip of the left-over wine in Elizabeth's cup, the taste was quite sweet and he couldn't feel the alcohol so he drank the rest of it without any problems, in fact drinking the wine added some extra charm to the whole experience of the hot spring.

Elizabeth patted his head.

"That's good, from now on how about we bath here every time, after all sister doesn't have a personal hot spring like this so you can come here with us to relax and forget about all that political nonsense".

Elaine stretched her body a bit before pouring more wine on her cup.

"Yeah, it's a good idea, besides I'm sure our mother will be happy to see us spending some time together, Aisha I noticed that your current appearance is not a disguise and you seem to be only a one-star mage now so… please tell me what happened".

Aisha turned to see her son and Daimon nodded, just like when he met Elizabeth, he could tell that Elaine was honestly worried about his mother and he was happy she had some good friends to trust.

"Basically, the day on which the Naktis evaluated Daimon's talent for magic they considered him not fit for it and his body constitution wasn't also particularly inclined to develop battle aura so they decided to abandon him… Victor tried to take advantage of the situation to get rid of my son but I stopped him, some elders arrived at the scene and they sided with Victor but thy were still only tied with me, the problem was Victor's father Velian Naktis".

Elaine slightly frowned her face.

"Wasn't that old monster on a life and death meditation to try advancing?".

Aisha shrugged.

"Well, it seems like he failed but he still managed to put a step into the next realm because he was able to corner me to the point where I had no other choice but to use a forbidden spell to escape"

Daimon got immediately interested hearing the word "advancing".

"Mom… I don't want to interrupt but, you only told me the realms until the Archmage or the Magus king rank, what are the realms after that?".

Elizabeth patted Daimon's head.

"You are too young to know about that, for now just focus on enjoying this bath with your big sisters ♥".

Daimon wasn't convinced by her answer.

"No… big sister Elizabeth, if you want to be a part of my family, I don't want secrets between us".

"Hahaha, he got you there Liz", said Aisha before explaining her son.

"It's not that I didn't want to darling but we all signed a magic contract when we assisted the academy which forbid us to reveal information about anything beyond the Archmage rank to people below it".

Evangeline interfered this time.

"That kind thing doesn't work on your soulmates, when she became one any ill "status", disability or restriction on her body were eliminated.

Daimon smiled.

"Mom, you remember the soulmate thing I show you before?".

Aisha nodded.

"Yes, why?".

"You are no longer bound by that magic contract since you became one", he answered.

"What!!!", exclaimed both Elizabeth and Elaine.

Aisha was also surprised, the contract signed was supposed to be definitive because you actually needed to place a little portion of your soul into it which guaranteed that if you broke the contract then… you will die.

But now they listened to a little child saying that the collective contract accorded by all the rational races was somehow nullified so of course they were surprised beyond words, even Elizabeth who knew that Aisha revived was in awe because bringing someone back from the death was hard but possible, but manipulating the soul was out of question even… for those above the Archmage realm.
