Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

After seeing Daimon’s performance, Richard had many things to process, like the fact that a one-star mage was physically strong enough to overwhelm a sixth star knight, specially because he knew that wasn’t Daimon’s limit.

“This kid is not an amateur, so I’m pretty sure he’s got some tricks up his sleeve”, he thought before dismissing the lesson.

“Brats, you are free for the rest of the day, your teacher Boris and me will stay to discuss a couple of things”.

Since they were dismissed Daimon and the others left the training grounds leaving behind a handful or work for their teachers.

Aliya looked at them leaving and she turned to see Richard.

“Uncle Richard what was the result… between the armor spell created by the Gaia’s Emperor and our representative variant factor?”.

Richard smiled, “It’s… incredible, contrary to what we thought, the origin of his abnormal strength seems to be a really harsh training regimen created by miss Aura, but that’s even better, an innate increase in strength is something fixed while it might be useful at the beginning it will become meaningless at higher realms”.

He then told them about the shackles of despair Daimon showed to them, and how he started using them since he was five years old.

Boris nodded, “So basically he has an abnormal amount of vitality and a body helps him not collapse and instead improve his strength”.

“And the will to stick to such a barbarian training even when he was quite young”, thought Aliya.

Richard shrugged, “Well it hasn’t even been a day and your bet seems to be paying off, little Aliya, I can’t wait to see what that kid becomes in the future, but for now let’s focus on the present”.

While Richard, Boris and Aliya discussed about what the tactics for the elite class would be, the students went to the restaurant of the academy to eat something.

Yvonne smiled, “Loren since the instructor gave us the rest of the day, let’s go hang around at Calvin’s family tavern, you have to meet his aunt she is such a good person”.

Calvin nearly tripped, he tried by all means to prevent Loren to know his aunt, because he was sure she was going to badmouth him for her own amusement.

“Bad idea, Lucas knows how to make good drinks, but the one in charge of the kitchen isn’t as skilled as the chefs of the academy so…”.

Before he could finish his sentence, Michael put the last nail on his coffin.

“No problem, we can eat here at the academy and then go to the happy wanderer, your aunt told us to drop by whenever we wanted anyway right Calvin?”.

​ Calvin gritted his teeth, “Wait till I meet your fiancee you short bastard, she is going to fall in love at first sight with this young master”, he thought, but right now seeing Loren’s curious expression he had no choice but to bite the bullet.

“Sounds like a good plan, “thanks” for the idea Michael”, he said with a smile that wasn’t a smile.

While everyone laughed at Calvin’s misfortune, they arrived at the restaurant, just like always the place was crowded, practically every table was either full or was already occupied by a few people.

Apparently, Loren didn’t know the first ranked of the elite class had a table exclusive for him, previously she saw Calvin, Yvonne, Leslie and Liliana sitting with him, but she thought they just got here earlier.

But now she saw that in a corner there was a table which wasn’t occupied, more accurately it was avoided as if it was something dangerous, her question was answered a few seconds later when Daimon’s badge glowed, and some kind of semi-transparent barrier became visible around the table.

They all took a seat and ordered what they wanted, while they waited for the food to be delivered at them, Loren stole a couple of glances at Calvin, until the she couldn’t hold her curiosity back anymore.

“Calvin since I’m going to meet your aunt later, why don’t you tell me something about her?”.

Calvin had a complex expression, but since she liked Loren, she was going to meet his aunt anyway, so it was better to get that out of the way as soon as possible.

“Well, there is not that much to say, she is the younger sister of my father, she used to be gentle when I was a kid, but now she just a ruthless woman… that being said she is not a bad a person and I know she is going to like you”.

Loren smiled, “I hope so”.

Daimon was amused by Calvin’s situation, he didn’t have to go through something like that with any of the girls, in fact he hasn’t met the parents or other relatives of them, with the exception of Liz and Elaine since Erin was their mother, but he didn’t have to pass the rite of “meeting the family”.

“Well sooner or later I will pay a visit to both Naktis and Silverheart”, he thought.

The food appeared on the table not too long after they ordered, Loren was surprised that the academy actually used a short teleportation formation for something as mundane as ordering food, but it was also not that uncommon considering the weight that being the first ranked in a whole grade meant.

Everyone’s attention was suddenly drawn by Liz’s playful voice.

“Say “ahhh” Daimon ♥”.

Daimon looked at Liz but contrary to what she expected, he accepted the offer and the others didn’t look surprised.

Yvonne laughed, “I’m sorry Liz but the very first thing Daimon and Aisha did at the welcome party was feed each other… before he beat a pair of guys so bad that everyone nearly pissed their pants”.

Aisha gave Liz a triumphant smile, “They might not know about us, but that doesn’t change I arrived first to the academy”, she thought.

Since Michael on purpose made things hard for him, Calvin decided to get back at him.

“Oi Michael now that we are closer, why don’t you tell us about your fiancee, I guess is normal for someone as boring as you to be engaged, but who is the lucky lady?”.

In a rare occasion Michael was actually shy, he doubted for a moment before he said.

“As I previously told you I never got to know my parents, “Lockstar” is the surname given to me by my master which has been taking care of me since I was three years old, when I passed his tests and since we grew together… his granddaughter became my fiancee”.

“She is the same age as me, but my master only allowed her to enter the academy when she becomes a peak one-star mage… she will probably join in a couple of months”.

Loren looked confused, “I didn’t know you could enter the academy once the year has already started?”.

Michael shook his head.

“She is a special case, just like Daimon, Aisha and me, she has dual affinity, but in her case is wood… and poison, besides she is a descendant of a half emperor and the academy can never have enough favors from them”.

Calvin had goosebumps remembering a “friend” he met in the past which turned out to have poison affinity, she didn’t take the break up too good, so he ended having fever and a terrible headache due to a little “gift” she left behind.

“Now I understand why you act so loyal and that, she got you from the balls”.

Michael nearly choked, “She is not like that, in fact I have never seen her use poison for anything… and I’m not acting you bastard”.

They kept talking about other things while enjoying their food, the other students looked with envious filled eyes how Daimon was personally feed by two beauties.

Once everyone had their fill, they stood up, the girls went all together to the bathroom for some reason which Daimon, Michael and Calvin didn’t understand, so they just stood still and waited for them.

While the girls were gone, a couple of people approached them, their badges were different to any of the ones Daimon have seen before, which meant they could only be third grade students.

In total there were three guys who approached them, two of them didn’t have any visible characteristic from a beast race while the last one was a member of the Jolbaris family, but unlike Alexander which hair was orange with white stripes, for him it was the other way around.

Calvin saw the badges and he sighed, “Well I can cross fighting against sixth star mages out of my list I guess”.

Then something no one expected happened, this guy from the Jolbaris family slightly bowed and presented himself.

“Gabriel Jolbaris greets the young master of the Revy and Argent clan… please relax I didn’t come here to fight and I would like to keep my balls attached to my body”.

Daimon frowned his brows, “What does a member from the Jolbaris family wants from me?”.

Gabriel looked at the other new year’s which were curiously looking at them, and he shook his head.

“If you don’t mind, can we go to a place where we can talk without being interrupted, your friends can come too if you want, of course you can choice the place”.

While Gabriel was speaking the girls including Liz returned from the bathroom, just in time to hear his proposition.

Gabriel noticed Daimon didn’t look convinced and he used his last resort.

“I’m not sided with Alexander, you can go and ask anyone that knows anything about the Jolbaris, I hate him to the point that even my hair is naturally contrary to his, okay?”.

Liz’s eyes glowed for a moment, she sent Daimon a message with mana that only he could hear.

“He is telling the truth, there are two half emperors in the Jolbaris family and they aren’t friendly with each other according to mom, that doesn’t mean he is trust worthy tough”.

Daimon nodded, besides the guy which Aisha killed back when she met Liz and Alexander, Arthur Jolbaris only has daughters, something he learnt that time when Erin took him to spy on them.
