Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

Since Leena decided to be a bit honest with them, things stopped being so tense, now that she shared something as important as the secret behind both Dana and her lineage, she was in the same boat as them.

Erin drank the juice and then frowned.

“Hey wait a second, that means we both never gave our all when we fought each other”.

Leena nodded, her previously stiffness disappeared as she relaxed on her chair.

“I guess we both had something to hide… or are you telling me you could predict all those ambushes we went through back at the academy without any kind of special technique?”.

Erin hid her expression with her glass, although she never admitted anything nor boasted about it, back when she was younger, she didn’t have the privilege of hiding her heart mirror as much as she would have liked.

It only activated when she was in a life and death situation, the problem is that such cases repeated way too much during the war.

Just like the Revy family was in war with the undead, the Jolbaris fought against the demons at the same time, so both Erin and Leena had to survive a lot of assassination attempts and other.

The difference was that the Jolbaris always have two half emperors guarding the fort, so besides Arthur’s father, Leena’s father was also a half emperor granting her a better protection compared to Erin, a couple of times undead and demons joined hands to get rid of both of them, and Leena witnessed how Erin avoided their traps without anyone’s help.

That’s how their rivalry started, both princesses of their clans, both targeted by the enemies of their families and both considered among the most outstanding women in their generation.

Aura chuckled at the scene of Erin and Leena remembering their time at the academy, then she talked using the mental connection.

“Who would have thought the day will come where three out of the five female half emperors of the whole stellar chart will be physically present in one place, that is something you don’t see every day”.

Daimon inwardly shrugged.

“Yeah, but it was hard to prevent them attacking their throats at first sight you know… speaking of that what actually surprises me is that, my normally fierce and combative Aura is behaving so good”.

“Humph, that’s because is Leena instead of Angela, if not you would have enjoyed the scene of a werewolf and a vampire trying to destroy each other, without any reason or provocation”.

Erin’s voice interrupted Daimon and Aura, since Aura wasn’t exclusively taking with Daimon, Erin heard them and she also replied.

If Daimon learned anything due to this experience was that he needed to investigate more about the other half emperors, even then he has somewhat heard of the woman Erin was talking about… since he is also a vampire.

That’s why he was a bit confused.

“The matriarch of the Nosfear family… isn’t she known for being the one sent to negotiate for the vampires, do you have pending matters with her?”.

Out of three clans, the Naktis and the Silverheart families have always had a warmongering approach thanks to their rulers, in comparison the Nosfear were kept in control thanks to the matriarch.

Aisha had a basic respect of her because she protected her daughter from Victor while her father abandoned her in exchange for some benefits, that’s why Daimon was a bit confused about why Aura would have a feud with such a person.

Aura sighed.

“Not really, it’s a bit hard to explain but since we saw each other we simply didn’t get along, in fact most of the half emperors hate each other, that’s why we normally just talk with each other through something similar of a sigil lector”.

“And we only meet in person when there is a situation that could destroy the stellar chart, like that time when Disaster ran rampant, making Leena come here is a bigger of an achievement than what you think”.

Erin’s eyes seemed to glow for a second as she spoke with a charming voice.

“She is right, fortunately I have a reward waiting for you later”.

Once Elaine returned from the guest’s mansion Leena stopped drinking, she stood up and said goodbye to them.

“I need to leave, it would be a hassle if Arthur goes to my mansion and I’m not there, I leave Dana under your care kid, I’m eager to see how your class will fare at the tournament the next week”.

Erin waved her hand and opened a path in the barrier for Leena which she used to tele transport with space shift.

“Daimon go see your mother and Liz, you need to explain them why that little girl will go… but after that you are ours”.

Erin’s gaze was a bit intense as she spoke with a smile, she wanted Daimon to clear all his pending matters so he could spend the rest of the weekend with her and Elaine.

Erin and Elaine stayed behind, but Aura accompanied him, with how things will be getting, the only way to feel safe during this weekend will be having a half emperor near at all times after all.

On the way Aura hugged Daimon’s right arm, while at the academy she publicly had to act as the principal, when she was at the Revy or Argent clans, she could act the way she wanted.

“Mm?”, Daimon felt Aura’s gaze on his back which made him turn to see her.

“What’s the problem Aura, you seem to be worried about something?”.

Aura smiled, she hugged his arm and cheered up.

“It’s nothing, it’s just that after the situation with Disaster, nothing big happened in the galaxies and now in just a matter of a few years a lot of things that can change our whole life are appearing one after each other”.

Daimon caressed her cute wolf ears, how could he not notice she was worried about the exploration, Erin wasn’t present when Aura met Dimas, so she couldn’t understand the shock Aura felt when she met an emperor level magic beast.

Her reasoning was simple, “If something like that was hidden in a planet, we have colonized for so many years, what could be inside a place that hasn’t been visited for who knows how many time”.

Aura’s tail wagged as she enjoyed Daimon’s caresses, until she heard his next words.

“There is something you aren’t telling me, is it because of whatever happened to you when you were trapped inside that secret realm?”.

Aura stopped in cold, besides Erin no one knew what she went through which forced her to become a half emperor… or die.

She pointed at her eye which had that slight scar Daimon has been curious off for quite some time, before saying.

“This is a reminder of how things can go to hell in a matter of seconds inside a secret realm, no one knows the grade of the place where I was trapped because the entrance opened and closed before anyone could measure the mana coming out of it”.

“I also didn’t know it until a few days ago when I met that serpent guy at the frozen plain… I’m eighty percent sure that place was destined for someone with at least that amount of strength, I only managed so survive because I was stuck at the first part of the trial”.

“Not only that, inside my mana was sealed I could only trust in my battle reflexes and my sword and I was already an Archmage at that point… what I’m trying to say is that would you consider not entering that place if me and Erin evaluate it to be too dangerous?”.

Daimon remained silent for a moment before he shaking his head.

“You know I can’t do that, as long as others enter that place there is a possibility of one of our enemies getting stronger than us, you know it once someone hesitates in taking risks to become stronger, that’s the end of the road”.

Aura smiled; her worries disappeared as soon as she heard Daimon’s answer, she was just testing him, according to what she went through.

“Everyone puts too much importance on mana, talent, affinities and the like… but at the end of the day all of that can be changed, that’s what a fortunate encounter is, but a strong will can’t be obtained by external means or luck”, she thought to herself.

“If the record of that place was right, I was the weakest out of all the ones that entered that secret realm and yet I’m the only one that managed to survive”.

Now that she cleared her doubts, Aura happily clung onto her lover until they reached the guest’s mansion, there was a familiar person waiting at the entrance… Ernest Revy, the old man which had a grudge against Erin for the punishment Edgar had to go through.

Apparently, the old man didn’t expect to see Aura, because his face paled as soon as he caught a glimpse of her, still he gritted his teeth and said.

“I want to see the matriarch, I went to the mansion of both the clan head and the champion and no one answered my call, then I found this interesting scene of people from other families occupying the supreme elder’s mansion”.

Daimon smirked.

“Why would that worry you, it’s not like this is your mansion or anything like that am I right?”.

Ernest felt his lungs filling with anger, but her knew the black-haired youth was provoking him, if he fell for that, then he will die without a tomb, so instead of acting he slightly bowed his head.

“I ask the young master to not be offended by my words, as an elder is my duty to see for the interests and rules of the family, in any case I’m not here for that”.

Daimon took out his sigil lector and sent a message to Erin with it, then he waited to get an answer which he immediately showed to Ernest.

“Not interested”.

Those two words made Ernest clench his fists so hard his nails dug in the palm of his hands, but he simply did his best to smile and then left.

“Thanks for the matriarch for answering me, I will take my leave”.

Daimon observed the back of the old man, a strange light glowed on his eyes for a moment before he entered the guest’s mansion followed by Aura.
