Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System



While others might have not realized what happened in the black castle a moment ago, inside the white castle there were a few who did notice it, Thea's instincts warned her there were two strong beings clashing a few seconds ago.

Rita could see the mana thanks to her mana sense, even through the isolating formation of the black castle, as for Daimon he saw light and darkness laws suddenly gather there.

'Mm, so more laws not always mean to be stronger, it seems like quantity isn't what's important but quality, that Shaman guy is slightly weaker than old Vincent', he concluded.

Many aspects defined one's battle prowess, Daimon has been studying what makes a Stellar rank strong, since he is sure Erin and Aura can easily destroy each and any of the Early and middle stage ones he has seen fighting so far with the exception of Thea, for the high ranked ones, Blackbeard looks troublesome, but not to the point where they would need to avoid conflict, that guy Tideus is the same.

But the Maximum ranks are different, in a rough calculation even if those two were to join hands, Daimon thinks the best they could do will be stalling for some time.

And that has been making him want to see more Maximum Stellar ranks, to compare and make his own conclusions, thanks to the Shaman he now realized that there are levels among laws too.

Well, the three lakes helped him notice that too, since those are the strongest laws, he has seen, in a scale where Calvin's grandfather is a 10 and Vincent is around 9, the ones that appeared when the lakes combined, will be a freaking 100.

In this improvised scale he created, the Shaman will be at 8.5 while Aurora is an 8, that doesn't mean they are necessary weaker than Vincent, but in this case, they are, though for a different reason.

Aurora could be said to be in a lower realm despite being a Maximum ranked, her accumulation is smaller compared to Vincent, but her laws are of the same quality, the Shaman on the other hand, has a better accumulation even than Vincent, but the quality of his laws is lacking, resulting in Vincent being slightly stronger.

'Ah, I can already imagine the damn party being exhausting, why didn't Adam have to deal with all this, he just appeared out of nowhere, saved Jasmine and everyone loved him', thought Daimon, just to hear Evangeline giggling at him.

'Well, that's in part your fault Mr. "I don't want to use Casanova", I told you, the systems grow according to their owner's wishes, mmm, think of it like this, he chose to play in easy mode and you chose the hell mode~', she said with a playful voice.

'Naturally the rewards follow the same pattern, so while he is shallowly using the opportunities given to him, you are getting every single drop of benefits from them, that monstrous swordsmanship and your new affinity are an example of that'.

'Besides if you were to be the type to choose the easy way, then you wouldn't be worthy to be my host', she added to herself.

eαglesnᴏνel Ultimately Daimon nodded, that could be why those two were defeated by him during their first meeting, despite being two system users against one, decisions affected one's result after all.

Daimon looked through the window of Jasmine's room and saw many carriages going through the check points of the white hill, in other words the party was about to start.

Aurora materialized out of thin air in the middle of Jasmine's room all of a sudden, her expression was calm once again as she stole a gaze at Daimon.

She somehow felt as if he knew what happened earlier, but she still said.

"Come with me for a second, the others should start preparing, though we will start the celebration when the sun starts to settle, the party will officially start in thirty minutes".

As soon as Aurora finished speaking, maids entered Jasmine's room bringing rolling racks with all kinds of dresses and other accessories.

Which made the sisters eyes sparkle, unlike Aisha who has her wardrobe with her all the time, thanks to Daimon's inventory, they only had what the academy allowed them to bring in those rings and they haven't really gone shopping in Neptune.

Daimon could feel the accusatory gazes of those three, since they have seen him giving Aisha some clothes out of thin air, but he didn't bring any for them.

"Ahem, sure, I'll go with senior Aurora", said Daimon as he left the room with Aurora, leaving the girls who softly laughed at the whole situation, Jasmine included.

Aurora saw the happy expression of her granddaughter, which was genuine compared to the times she wanted to explore just to not be in this white castle that reminded her of the fact that her mother wasn't here anymore, and she inwardly nodded, this is what she wanted for her.

Aurora closed the door behind her and then turned to see Daimon who just took off his mask.

"So, what can I expect to happen in this welcome party, childish personal attacks, angry losers that claim something that wasn't theirs to begin with?", asked Daimon, which made Aurora sigh.

"Spying isn't good you know, but indeed, they are going to cause you trouble, besides death anything is fine, Purplecloud and Skyfire's sons will for sure take the chance, which my husband is going to create… crush them but don't kill them, it's for little Jas's sake, that's the only thing I ask", she said.

She has seen the way Daimon handles his enemies, there is no room for mercy once someone has pointed at him with a sword, she doesn't know why but even with her husband being present, she knows he will be able to pull it off if he decides to go for the kill.

Specially because Daimon has stated that even if both Vincent and Aurora were to try and kill him, if he wants to leave no one can stop him, so he isn't afraid of them, he can even take the others with him now.

In part that's why both Aurora, Annete and the Duchess were delighted of the fact that Daimon was acting as their bodyguard, of he isn't afraid of Maximum Stellar ranked, then what can possibly kill him in Neptune.

"I'm not asking something for free; he owes me a big one from some time ago, help me with this and it's yours, there are some really nice darkness affinity things in the Black Fortress's treasury and you can pick two", she said.

Daimon's bad habit showed, as he smirked, with Aurora's help the things needed for Aura's treasure will be completed, and now he'll also get what he needs for Erin and there is a chance the second hidden gem requirement is met, if it's something that is in the hands of the Shaman of course.

And he only needs to beat up some people, who he needed to deal with anyway, it was two birds one stone.

"No problem, we met a girl from the Purple Haze sect, they specialize in the use of poison, as for the other guy it's fire, right?", he asked.

Aurora nodded in response.

"Yes, though Skyfire's older son will suppress its realm since he is a peak Archmage as you call them, so his fire isn't weak at all, as for Purpleclous's son, he is actually a middle stage Lord rank, he was supposed to be the one to fight Triten's son, as he is the strongest in the young generation of the Elemental Sea".

Daimon thanked Aurora but he didn't show any worry regarding those two, which made Aurora inwardly nod, with this she can be at ease.

"You also prepare for the party, technically you are the guest of honor and little Jas will be the one to give you the token to enter my treasury, though you can take whatever you need and not just one item", she said as her body dispersed into countless rays of white light.

Daimon sighed, as someone who comes from a modern planet all the noble thing isn't up to his liking, Aisha made sure he learned etiquette and all though.

…

While the girls and Daimon prepared for the party, at the other side of the castle, Aurora who was already suing the robes of the Matriarch of the Light Palace, received a visit from a purple clothed woman.

It was none other than the mother of Sarah and the second in command of the Purple Haze sect.

"Lady Aurora, thanks for receiving me with such a short notice", said the purple clothed woman as she rose the sides of her clothes to greet Aurora.

"I'm a bit busy right now, so if you have something to say, now is the moment, Bell", calmly said Aurora.

The purple clothed woman didn't get offended by the straightforward words of Aurora, she instead nodded and then said.

"In truth it was my daughter who insisted me on coming, she saw her cousin's latest achievement in poison spells and since the notice of the "champion" of the Mermen Sea coming here arrived before Lady Aurora, it was obvious for whom that was prepared, I just wanted to warn you about it, my little Sarah still considers young miss, her friend… despite what happened back then, the same for me, though Sylvie it's not talking to me anymore".

Aurora remained silent for a moment, she looked at the roof of the room as if she was contemplating things for a moment before she just sighed.

"Thanks for the information, I will tell little Jas you came to say hi, or if you want to you can stay for the party".

The purple clothed woman shook her head as she stood up to leave.

"Thanks for your kind words, but Syl will attack me if she sees me near young miss, and I would do the same if I was her honestly, so I'll have to pass, but Sarah will stay, please keep an eye on her".

"Mm", Aurora nodded and then allowed the purple clothed woman to leave, while she was lost in her thoughts, with everything that was happening solving some pending matters wasn't a bad idea.

'I guess I'll have a talk with little Jas after the party ends', she thought.

Leaving that aside, the atmosphere on the white castle started to change to a festive one, the maids had prepared a waiting room for the people who arrived early to present their respects to Aurora, who were mostly the city lords of the territories under the management of the Light Palace.

The three patriarchs included of course, people kept arriving one after another, in those luxurious carriages while everything was prepared for the celebration.

The front yard was decorated, tables, chairs and other furniture was accommodated, the chefs of the castle prepared their own workstations and started preparing the main dishes which requires time to cook, little by little an elegant party took form.

Naturally the families of the clan heads that were waiting to pay their respects personally to Aurora, didn't get to enter the castle and instead were offered seats on the front yard, this was a special occasion and everyone was gossiping about the rising star from the Mermen Sea who was visiting the Light Palace, since the crowned prince of the Clear Water kingdom was a renowned fighter and he lost, not according to the rumors he was crushed in front of everyone.

This was also a perfect opportunity for the people that lived in the Light Island to meet the disciples of the other islands, it was a great chance to make connections and the like, ultimately the ones attending were nobles of their own sects.

The gate of the white castle opened and naturally the attention of all the presents was drawn at it, it was almost time for the start so the honored guest should appear at any time.

And they were right, since the ones coming out of the castle were none other than Daimon and the girls, they were all dazzling, literally and figuratively, since the clothes that were given to them were magic equipment.

Daimon looked at himself wearing this elegant white suit, which is actually the uniform of the Light Palace's elites, that so far only Sylvie, in other words, Aurora's direct disciple wear and he chuckled.

'For someone whose attribute is light, she is quite cunning', he thought.

This suit fit him perfectly and it is made with light affinity materials, it is not something that could be made in less than three or four days, meaning Aurora had ordered it to be made even before the tournament ended.

'At least it's quite similar to my usual attire anyway', thought Daimon.

Naturally, an "outsider" wearing the elite uniform of the Light Palace which even the knight who has served Aurora for the longest time isn't allowed to, and a man on top of that, made all the guests of the party dumbfounded.

Why do you ask, well, only the royal family of the Light Palace can use it, Sylvie has accepted Aurora as her master, so she is like an adopted daughter for her.

In other words, either the Matriarch of the Light Palace has finally accepted a male disciple or… he was going to become family for her in some other way.

And with that "revelation" the party officially started.
