Erin patted Daimon's head; she was happy that her future partner had a good way to see things even when he was at such a young age.

One often tends to envy those who are considered geniuses, but what other people doesn't know is that those who are outstanding might have privileges but sometimes they also have obligations, such was the case of Erin.

"I'm one of the few that survived of my generation, when I was younger the Revy clan was in an open war with the undead, all because the son of the person who used to be the ancestor in that moment killed the successor of another half emperor, my mother was the strongest within the Arch ranks in our family at that time so of course I was also a target for them".

"After many of the outstanding members of the young generation died due to the conflict, all the elders complained, the ones dying were their sons, daughters, little brothers and sisters… while the ancestor was not doing anything but excusing his son and not participating in the war".

"Finally, the ancestor couldn't ignore the clan's opinion and the final decision was that one representative from each family will be sent to fight to decide a winner, but the undead half emperor somehow managed to kill the son of our ancestor and after that the fight became bloodier".

"The ancestor died in battle and my mother took the lead in the war which lasted almost 20 years, both sides ended losing a lot of Arch ranks and there were many other who suffered horrible wounds due to the corpse poison used by the undead… my mother among them".

Erin stopped for a moment as before continuing.

"During the war the clan head position was unoccupied, but once my mother was weakened and bedridden, the elder that supported Edgar a moment ago suddenly appeared with young man and a letter written by the ancestor stating that the young man was his missing son… Edgar Revy".

"Although my mother was not a peak Archmage anymore, the respect that many of the surviving elders had for her was so high that, even if Edgar's family branch was one of the few that didn't suffer heavy losses, they had no other option than convince my mother to support their ascension as the main branch of the family".

"My mother knew she didn't have too much time left and the clan wouldn't have survived an internal strife for power so, for the first time in her life she asked something, she wanted me to be the one to unite the strongest branch of that time and the one that had the trust of almost the whole clan"

"Of course, my mother wasn't willing to ignore my will so instead of marrying Edgar the solution was to perform the sun and moon ceremony, there was going to be an eclipse that year, so the deal was that I and Edgar will participate to create a new life thus showing the clan that we supported him becoming the new clan head".

Erin smiled.

"That's how your big sister Elaine came into my life, I was an early-stage mage lord when I had my first daughter, my mother died not too long after and perhaps the sun and the moon did bless me, because after Elaine's birth my cultivation speed increased by a lot, to the point that a couple of years later, I was at the peak of the mage lord realm".

"Unlike what Edgar thought I didn't like him one bit and since he was declared the clan head, he tried to force me to marry him, the punishment elder you saw before was the only survivor from the pre-war generation, he was my mother's friend and that's why he didn't allow Edgar to do what he wanted".

"He treated me as if I was his own daughter and protected me from Edgar's family, there was another eclipse that year, the last one in the last 2000 years in fact we performed the ceremony again and after that I cut off any ties with Edgar or the clan and focused in my daughters and my cultivation".

"Peace brought prosperity to our clan and as time passed, I became stronger, my goal was that my daughters didn't have to go through the same things as me so I trained and cultivated with all my heart, at some point I occupied my mother's former position as the champion of the clan and eventually I managed to break through and became a half emperor".

As if she suddenly remembered something she added.

"Ahh I almost forgot, along the way I met Aura and since at that point of my life I was also a battle maniac like her we easily became friends, that's a short but accurate summary of my lif…".

Before Erin could finish speaking, she was interrupted when Daimon suddenly hugged her, the story might look short but how could he not know she skipped some of the worst things that happened to her, core synchrony was more than an incredible skill, while Daimon was listening to her story he could feel Erin's strong emotions, as if he was in her shoes.

The hatred she felt when that despicable old man suddenly decided to participate to get power in the family after Erin's mother ended bedridden due to all the battle she had to fight, the sadness and sorrow she felt when her mother passed away and the impotence she felt when Edgar's family tried to force her to marry someone she didn't love.

Daimon felt as if his heart was breaking, through the whole first part of the story, luckily not everything were bad things, he could also feel the relieve Erin experienced when the punishment elder took her as his daughter, the determination she forged in her heart to give Elaine and Liz a better life and the joy of getting a friend in whom she could trust from the time she met Aura.

While was still hugging Erin, Aisha's voice made him wake up from his daze.

"Darling, did you know that common people in the Wonder Myriad stellar chart, believe that depending on your element of affinity you are destined to go through different things in your life, for example those with fire affinity are said to be involved in a lot of battles, wind element mages are bound to travel and things like that… those with dark element affinity are supposed to be prone to suffering".

Aisha stopped for a moment before smiling.

"Perhaps you came to this world to become our light darling", she added.

Erin hugged him back, to be honest although she indeed had to go through a lot of bad things, she also had good memories like when Aura visited her for the first time and nearly half killed Edgar for acting all high and mighty despite being only an early Archmage, just because he thought he was some big shot due to being the clan head, but it was true that when she met Daimon, she felt a huge positive change coming to their life, and so far, that was the case.

Arthur Jolbaris had no longer an excuse to pester her anymore, Edgar got his cultivation abolished and he was going to be imprisoned while his family practically lost the support of other elders due to his mistake, her daughters were no longer in a fight and they even reunited with their only friend, not to mention that it has only been a couple of days since he became a part of her life.

Erin gave Daimon a kiss before saying.

"You are right Aisha; little Daimon is my lucky charm, so of course he will have to be close to me at all times ?".

Of course, Aisha couldn't be left behind so she stood up and also kissed her son, they only stopped when Aura's angry voice interrupted them.

"Ahem, I just left for a couple of minutes and you are already flirting with each other… Erin I understand that Daimon and Aisha don't participate, but why the hell are you sitting all relaxed while we are dealing with the stupid magic beasts?".

Erin shook her head.

"Don't be angry, you like to fight anyway, I was just telling little Daimon about my past and I have to admit that now I feel refreshed as if a weight was lifted from my shoulders, so I only gave him a kiss as a reward, I don't see any problem in that".

Aisha nodded.

"He is my darling so I couldn't leave Erin have all the fun for herself", she added.

Elaine sighed.

"I expected that from my mother… but since when you became selfish like that Aisha?".

Aisha smiled.

"Since I became his soulmate", she answered.

Liz laughed.

"Well said, Aisha but you are forgetting we are all the same now, so you will have to share him with us now".

She descended from the sky and also kissed Daimon.

"We hunted a lot of Keratos, do you have enough of those coins to get big sister a good grimoire ??".

Aura felt a vein popping in her neck, "you both mother and daughter are both shameless", she said, and Elaine nodded.

Daimon's sudden laugh made all the girls smile, this was a good family to belong to, even though he was all, a son, nephew, little brother, disciple and future husband.

He checked the current balance and he almost choked while laughing, he counted the zeros just to be sure he didn't see it wrong but the result was the same.

[Current balance: 45,000,000 coins]

"How many Keratos did you three killed?", he asked.

The sisters and Aura thought for a second and they all reached the same conclusion. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"I lost the count", they all said.

Daimon opened the log of the system and there was a lot of new lines, the didn't kill as much as he thought, for some reason the peak Arch ranked ones that Aura hunted were sold by 800,000 coins each one and that's how the number of coins reached such a high figure.

"I have enough to get one fragment of Laplace for the five of you".

"Mm?", all of them were confused by what he said.

Aura took the initiative to ask.

"The five of us you say but including that pair of shameless foxes, Elaine and me, we are only four?".

Daimon suddenly remembered that he hasn't told them about Narasha, seeing even his mother giving him an accusatory gaze he sighed.

"Don't look at me like that, the one missing is for Disaster, no for the spirit that resides within Disaster, her name is Narasha and… she is also my soulmate".
