This ti Solomon didn't block the space due to Daimon's petition, so Aura could take them directly inside of the Happy Wanderer.
To Daimon's surprise, almost everyone was already there, the ones missing were Dana, Arianna and Lana as well as the two who were coming from Lydia's academy and Hector, the guy who used to serve the Ascott but was abandoned and pledged loyalty to Daimon.
"Good morning", Stella who was drinking a cup of coffee greeted Daimon and the others, she could barely contain her happiness, but that was understandable since her little sister advanced to five-star mage realm thanks to the petal of the snow lotus she refined.
Gina on the other hand nodded at them and remained silent next to her older sister, as she doesn't really know anyone here with the exception of Aleah.
"I'll go pick that your junior sister and the Ramir girl", said Aura before she used space shift to leave.
The others took a seat to wait for those who were yet to arrive, Erin who wasn't dark curtain for a change in the routine, giggled while she sent a ssage through her sigil lector.
Daimon could perfectly recognize that cunning smirk in Erin's face and he chuckled.
'What did you do?", he asked in a voice only she could hear.
'I told Leena and Lydia that if they don't hurry up, you'll leave without them~'.
Daimon bitterly smiled, the only Half Emperors allowed to go to the entrance of the magic ruin was the principal of the academy as well as the field marshal, besides them only the designated mage lord who had the chance to enter and the teacher of the students could go too, at least until the students entered the ruin.
But Aura wasn't planning on taking Alexander and the other students who weren't allied with Daimon, so they left beforehand since they would have to take a larger route, and wait in a nearby planet until the field marshal allowed them to use the transportation magic formation which was now under the supervision of the army.
'She is going to complain, because that would an Dana will have to spend ti with Alexander you know?'.
Erin chuckled and then started a countdown with her left hand, but before she could finish, Leena with a hurried expression appeared with Dana, not even a couple of seconds later, Lydia knocked on the door with an out of breath expression.
Mireya opened the door and Lydia entered with her two students, a boy of about 14 years old and a girl who seed to be in her early twenties.
Both Lydia and Leena glared at Erin, noticing that Aura wasn't here which ant there was still ti for them.
"Don't look at like that, you should have been here earlier", said Erin as she shrugged.
"I had a fall out with Arthur after the list of participants was released you know?", mumbled Leena as she rubbed her forehead, the past weekend was such a headache for her.
Once the list of those who were going to the magic ruin was made public, Arthur thought Dana was going with Alexander, but when he went to talk with Leena, she made it clear that her niece will be accompanying Daimon.
Which of course made Arthur angry, but ultimately, she just had to say sothing along the lines of "Who can be a better companion than the one who defeated the previously acclaid "number one" with a single spell".
Unfortunately for Arthur no matter how angry he was, he could only swallow his complains and leave, needless to say but from that mont onwards things got pretty tense, so Leena had to watch over Gabriel and Dana.
In Lydia's case she was late because she had to rush to pick up her students, and judging by their auras Daimon supposed she had to wait since they were advancing not too long ago.
"Co and greet Daimon you two", said Lydia to her students.
"Samuel Frost, it's a pleasure Demon of the elite class".
"Rachel Frost".
Contrary to what Daimon expected, Lydia's students were quite easy going, so he had no trouble exchanging greets with them.
Soone knocked on the door again and Aura also returned with Arianna and Lana, this ti Daimon opened the door.
Hector Damascus who beca Daimon's follower due to a certain incident entered with a sowhat stiff expression on his face.
"Hector greets young master Daimon", he said as he slightly bowed.
Daimon nodded, while his classmates still didn't know why he gave a spot to Hector, Daimon had so plans for him, but it all depended on how things went inside the magic ruin.
"Say goodbye, we are leaving no".
While Aura prepared herself to take everyone with her to the gate station of Lykos, everyone said goodbye to their families.
Before they left, Richard approached Daimon and dragged him to the other side of the room, as he showed him a huge scar he had on the left side of his chest.
"Kid, be wary of the "Pillars" from the demon army, they all have a number tattooed on a visible part of their bodies, from the humans the Penddra family as well as the Argon family are psychos, they can't be compared to the brats of the light faction and will actively hunt you down because you have darkness affinity".
"Lend those three a hand when the ti cos", said Richard as he let go of Daimon.
'We'll be waiting for your return at the border, if you can let us know how things are going', said the girls to Daimon through the ntal connection, since he will be inside the magic ruin, the most probable thing is that they can't communicate, on the brighter side, Evangeline told them that they could still feel Daimon's state thanks to their status as soulmates, so they'll know if he is in trouble or not, also Narasha and Aisha will go with him, so Daimon will have company.
"Let's go", Aura finished her preparations and with a wave of her hand Daimon and the others disappeared from the room.
"We should get going, I will see you later once they are about to co out", said Erin before she and her daughters left.
Zein, Leena, Lydia, Boris, Richard, Mireya, Solomon and Vereth followed not too long after, each one had their own things to attend after all.
…
After a couple of seconds Aura and the others appeared at the campus of the academy before she guided them to a secluded building near the area exclusive for the third-year students.
Aura used her identity token and the gates of the building opened themselves revealing a portal inside.
"This will take us to through the shortest route which is exclusive for the academy, for you it will be only a couple seconds since we will be moving at a speed that you would not be able to process it, I will create a barrier just in case so just close your eyes and everything will be okay".
"Mm", the students nodded and then Aura created a spherical barrier with her mana, everyone grouped with their respective closer companions and then Aura jumped into the portal followed by them.
For Daimon it was as if he was flashed by a brilliant light, the next thing he knew was that Aisha, the Risha sisters and surprisingly Aliya were clinging onto him, the world seed to move in slow motion for him.
"You are conscious!", Daimon saw Stella pointing at him with a surprised expression, which made Aura chuckle, she expected Daimon to be able to experience the high-speed transportation, as he has temporarily been harmonized wit the world while he activated core synchrony, not to ntion he had a certain comprehension of space.
That being said, Daimon couldn't move at all, because his mother and the other girls were holding him in place, it was a surreal experience to see the blurred surroundings outside of the spherical barrier.
"Lightning elent user", said Daimon in a try to excuse himself, which made Stella raise an eyebrow, but ultimately, she couldn't find an answer so she believed him, she saw the spell he used to finish Alexander with, and it was quite sothing so maybe his senses could sharpen enough to stay awake during this travel.
'How long will this last?', he asked to Aura, although Daimon was happy to see the process of the travel, if he couldn't move or do anything it was going to get boring.
'About twelve hours, you are lucky that this gate was created, a couple of hundreds of years ago, to travel from the academy to the border, you have to be in a dinsional tunnel for about a week'.
Daimon had a bitter expression, twelve hours without nothing to do were still not cool.
'Another reason to create a spaceship instead of just relying on the portals', thought Daimon.
For so reason the races of the Wonder Myriad stellar chart had developed the ans to teleport, but they had no spaceships, could be because of the existence of Half Emperors and the fact that runes existed before the material for the flying carriages were discovered
So, all the planets with a decent level of mana had formations hidden on them to be sued like a node in a net to which only so had access, in this case the net was ford by the branches of the Wild Claw academy and the one in control was the main campus.
Daimon closed his eyes and tried to ditate to pass on ti, but as he did it, without noticing he fell asleep, making Stella sigh.
"Such a rare experience like using the high-speed portal and he fell asleep", she mumbled making Aura giggle.
'Well, he didn't sleep too much in the past two nights', she thought to herself, rembering all the "love" he gave them.
