Chapter 26: Space shift
Once Elizabeth returned with the food they started eating while, while Daimon was eating, he tried to think on what his new surname would be, unlike what Erin proposed he wanted to change his surname permanently to cut off any relation he had with the Naktis, it took him some time to decide until he suddenly got some inspiration thinking on the
Aisha saw her son smiling and she was a bit confused.
"Darling what happened?".
Daimon turned to see his mother before saying.
"I decided, from now and onwards my surname will be "Licht".
Aisha smiled.
"It's not a bad surname, but why did you choose it out of all the options?".
Daimon pointed at himself.
"The nemesis of vampires is light, although high ranked ones are not affected by the sun, the light projected by mithril is still lethal to them, Licht means light… also this way my own existence will go against the Naktis".
Aisha was surprised, she knew Daimon had a deep grudge against Victor since his actions were what mainly caused her death but, listening to his words it seems like he hated them even more than what she originally thought.
Erin nodded.
"Daimon Licht, I like how it sounds ♥, Aisha are you okay with it? after all you two will be using the same surname during a lot of time".
"I don't have a problem with it, the only one from the Silverheart family who actually cared for me was my mother and… she is no longer with us so I don't have any affection to them, besides with this I will share the same surname with my darling ♥", she said.
Erin shook her head.
"Alright, I will take care of the background story for you two so looks like we all set".
Elizabeth interrupted her mother.
"Nop, there is still one thing we need to do… we need to get some clothes for little Daimon hehehe".
Listening to Liz's words Daimon had a bad premonition and he was right, once they finished eating the girls dragged him along to Erin's room, luckily, he didn't need to go out of the mansion, instead Elizabeth took a set of clothes from the ones Daimon had and went out to one of the stores in the Revy family grounds.
A couple of hours later she returned and that was when the "fashion show" started, Elizabeth brought almost 50 different sets of clothes, but from all of them only one called Daimons attention, normally the clothing style on almost all the galaxies was similar to the one on the European medieval times although some races had their own unique styles just like the Revy clan where they used more eastern oriented clothes.
Although Elizabeth made him try on every set so she could see what was the style that suited Daimon the most the set of clothes he chose was somewhat similar to the modern clothes used back on earth, a black long sleeve shirt, white pants and a white jacket with purple decorations, once he tried them, he immediately liked the set of clothes.
Liz nodded.
"It suits you pretty nice, I guess humans do make some of the most comfortable clothes".
The rest of the day they just kept on preparing for their meeting with the matriarch of the Argent family, Daimon's hair was a bit too long so Aisha cut his hair like she has always done, at the end they just returned to sleep together but this time Daimon told them to at least keep some underwear on.
Unfortunately, he miscalculated, they actually looked more tempting using slight lingerie than just being naked, it was almost midnight when he managed to finally fell asleep.
The next morning Daimon woke up early because he felt Erin standing from the bed to speak with someone on her sigil lector and judging by her indifferent expression, she was not speaking with someone she got along with.
Once the transmission ended Erin noticed Daimon was awake so she returned to her previous position while placing him on top of her body.
"I'm sorry, I accidentally woke you up".
Daimon noticed her serious expression and he asked.
"Is everything okay?".
Erin caressed his hair before answering.
"Yes, it's just that dealing with despicable people first in the morning puts me in a bad mood so… little Daimon will have to spoil me or I might stay all day in bed ♥".
"What are you a kid", he thought
Daimon knew what she wanted so he just gave her a quick kiss to avoid waking the other girls, he already learned his lesson, the others would only kiss him individually unless they saw him doing it by his own will, in that case they will act as a pack of ferocious beasts which prey on him.
Today was colder than previous days so they stayed in bed more time than usual, especially Liz it took Daimon almost ten minutes to make wake her up.
Erin decided to visit the Argent clan with Daimon and Aisha today since they were all ready and she had already told them their invented story background, they basically were the son of an unknown werewolf and a member from the Revy clan who died some time ago when "Daimon" was born, so his older sister "Aisha" took care of him, thanks to the money their mother left them they didn't need to work, the young brother arrived late at the annual talent evaluation but coincidentally Elizabeth was there so she personally witnessed with her own eyes his unique characteristics as a variant.
The story was quite simple and no one could relate him to Daimon Naktis since he had claws, once the preparations were finished Erin gave some instructions to her daughters before using a spell to hide Daimon and Aisha before she left the Revy clan flying with them.
Erin's attribute was darkness, the spell she used was called "Dark curtain" which allowed her to create a field that deflected light thus making them "invisible" to others, also as a half emperor her technique to fly was on a better level than an Archmage she created something like an invisible dome where Aisha and Daimon could sit and just enjoy the travel without being affected by the pressure of the air or anything.
While they were on their way to the Argent clan, Aisha activated the effect of the god of mischief bracelet and her hair color among with some minor aspects of her face changed, to be honest Daimon and her shared some resemblance and now that their ages were not too far from each other they truly looked like siblings.
At some point when they were far from the Revy clan Erin suddenly stopped, she took out a map where there were some places marked in red circles and after confirming her surroundings, she dispelled the dark curtain and both Daimon and Aisha became visible again.
"We are out of the detection range of the elders stationed at the outer area of the clan, I will use "space shift" from this point on, you should be fine since there is a barrier protecting you but just to be safe close your eye until I say so".
Space shift was the spell unique to half emperors which allowed them to connect one point with other for a few seconds to shorten the distance, the space was still a mystery for all the people of the Wonder Myriad stellar chart and although Erin has taken her daughters with her before while using space shift, they suffered some minor side effects like dizziness although they were Archmages.
So just to be safe she asked them to close their eyes, Daimon and Aisha did as she said and Erin placed her hand on top of the barrier that was helping them to fly before they disappeared from the place, they were floating a moment ago, Erin kept on repeating this while being unaware that Daimon was "seeing" everything with his sixth sense.
Unfortunately, sixth sense was a passive skill which meant he could not deactivate it, at first Daimon was more or less fine but after the six time he experienced the space shift his mind started getting dizzy.
"Oi E-Evangeline, can't you do something about this? I feel like my head is going to explode".
Evangeline who was seeing everything refused.
"No, this is good for you believe me, others need a lot of time to enter in contact with the laws of space but sixth sense allow you to "see" more than other people, you already know how this works after some specific actions you might develop a skill, just think how useful would be if you learn how to move using space as the method".
…
Daimon hated to admit it but she was right, if he could somehow learn how to use space shift then he would have a triumph card to use in dangerous situations, so he gritted his teeth and tried to adjust his breathing to calm down, needless to say but it was futile, his senses were experiencing an overwhelming amount of information every time Erin used the spell and this kept repeating for almost 30 minutes until suddenly everything around him silenced.
*Ding*
[A new skill was created due to a specific action]
"Finally, god damn I feel as if my head is splitting apart", he thought.
