Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System
Chapter 125.1: A pet for the elite class (part 1)The ice cages safely landed on the ground and even if they shook from time to time, the ones inside weren't strong enough to break free from them, the giant ice block on the other hand illuminated in an orange tone before it exploded into many pieces of ice.
Mist was created due to the clash between Dimas's ice and the high temperature flames, of the captain Caldras mentioned, while the vision was blocked due to a curtain of mist, Liz and Dimas heard a disdaining voice mocking them.
"Humph, lowly ice creature, how dare you use these puny tricks with a descendant of a noble fire spirit!!!".
Liz waved her hand and the mist was dispersed revealing the owner of that voice, just like Caldras, their captain was also possessing the body of a lizardman but this one was different, it was way taller than Caldras reaching about 2 meters and its whole body was covered in flame like tattoos.
The Lizardman evaluated its surroundings, he noticed all his subordinates were captured by Dimas and also saw the ice fortress in which Daimon and the others were hiding.
Then focused his attention on Liz.
"Natives of this poor galaxy, you have colluded with an ice basilisk to harm me, Agramy a member of the spirit army of lord Efres, the punishment is death… but considering you didn't know who you were attacking, one thousand years of servitude under me will save you from destiny".
Although the fortress didn't have windows courtesy of Dimas common sense, Daimon was using truth seeker eyes and sixth sense at the same time to watch what was happening, and his gaze turned hostile as he easily recognized the intention in Agramy's eyes… lust.
"Liz don't kill that idiot… I have something better reserved for him", he said through their mental connection.
Agramy ignorant of the horrible destiny which awaited him, got angry seeing that Liz didn't even bother to answer him, but on the other hand he found her captivating so instead he tried to use the "soft" way to get her.
The tattoos on the lizard man glowed and then the body felt inert to the ground, allowing Liz and Dimas to see the true appearance of Agramy, its body had a basic human figure, but it was completely red-transparent as if it was made out of fire, including his hair and eye sockets which were only pure fire.
He was just wearing some kind of cloth to cover his lower body while his upper body was in plain view, Agramy's eyes were filled with pride, for spirit races the more solid their the better their pedigree was, although he was born from an affair, his father is a noble so he inherited a basic human form from him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAnd he was right to be proud, fore djinns without a noble lineage need to reach the planetary subjugation realm to get a semi solid body, while he had one even as a peak mortal being, although it wasn't a complete one, his starting point was higher compared to his peers.
Agramy smiled at Liz and made a noble like gesture.
"You have a decent affinity with fire, why don't you follow me, if you help me kill that disgusting snake, I will share some of the merit with you, what do you say, don't you want to see a bigger world instead of being trapped in this deserted place?".
Liz kept her indifferent expression, but Dimas on the other hand talked back since Agramy called him "serpent".
"Who are you trying to fool, that half assed solid form of yours is lame, one of the advantages of spirit races is that they get to chose the form that fits them the best, but you gave up that just for the easy path… your potential as a common spirit is ruined and your lineage as a noble is diluted, in other words you are the worst of both worlds".
Dimas then laughed out loud and pointed at himself with his tail.
"Not to mention you are so ugly, if you want to be proud of something then be proud on the fact that you got to see such a handsome ice mirage basilisk like me".
…
This time even Daimon couldn't help but mentally laugh.
"What an interesting guy", he thought.
Agramy on the other hand didn't find it funny, his true self was exposed by Dimas and in front of the female he was trying to bring to his side, what was worse is that it was an ice attributed entity the one that did it.
Seeing that Liz was also laughing at him, his whole body exploded in flames making the temperature of the room to suddenly increase like crazy.
"Die, you filthy animal".
Agramy's flames condensed into a line of fire which was shot directly at the fortress, although Agramy made it look as if he was going to attack Dimas, his true target was whatever was being protected by the fortress.
Surprisingly Liz didn't even flinch, she crossed her arms and simply let the fire impact against the fortress, but the explosion Agramy was expecting didn't happen, he gritted his teeth and turned to see Dimas.
"I wonder what's inside that fortress for you to protect it with that force?".
Dimas smirked, his snake like eyes seemed to glow with cunningness, but unlike the previous times he used his magic, his scales weren't illuminated which meant… he didn't do anything.
"Fire djinns apparently have a poor vision; I didn't do anything, it's just that your flames are no match for those… whatever they are".
"Mm?", Agramy focused his attention on the ice fortress again, his eyes narrowed as he noticed a thin layer of white fire blocking his flames, no the correct thing to say was that his flames were being engulfed by that white fire.
A small space with the size of a gate opened on the wall of the fortress from where the figure of a young man with a cold expression appeared before the wall closed again, unlike his normal appearance in public Daimon's hair had his original silver color.
Not only that, the mana of the world seemed to harmonize with Daimon, as if it danced around him creating a veil of different elements, among them there was fire, lightning, darkness and even light.
Liz smiled from ear to ear.
"Harmonizing with the mana of the world, which gather the elements to which the mage has a high affinity with, the precursor of a domain… "Manifestation".
In other words, Daimon was using the strength of a mage lord, thanks to core synchrony, although his knight realm didn't go up because none of his soulmates was a knight, his control and power over the elements that conformed demon light with the exception of his battle aura did increase a lot.
Liz nodded.
"As a star ranked mage, he was able easily to kill Caldras's partner, so in his current state his flames can overwhelm the ones of this guy without any problem", she thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDaimon looked at Agramy's unsightly expression and he snorted.
"Flirting with my girl in front of me, is the same as asking to die… but since you didn't know who you were offending, I will give you a chance, an eternity of servitude as the lowest kind of vassal would be enough for you to keep one of your two heads".
Agramy nearly lost it, a native of a low place just returned his words to him, and what was worse was that he noticed the "maiden in love", expression in Liz's face, which meant the woman he was trying to court was already taken.
"In that case none of you needs to survive, get burn to a crisp!!!".
With a loud shout, Agramy's flames exploded in all directions forming a huge fire tsunami, the walls and the roof of the cave started melting due to the high temperature, but before he could launch his attack the sound of fingers snapping echoed through the cave.
As if it was heavenly mandate, Agramy's fire disappeared and the cave returned to its usual silent state, Daimon stood still with a relaxed expression while he held a black/ blue sword on his right hand, from which a black threatening mist was leaking.
The strongest magic sword known in the wonder myriad stellar chart… Disaster, and even more importantly Daimon's precious battle partner, Narasha which used the natural ability of disaster to devour Agramy's flames as if they were nothing.
Daimon smiled, "Well done Narasha", he thought before his image flashed as he used blink to appear in front of Agramy, which was still processing what happened.
"Impossible, besides those anomalies which have set a foot into the planetary subjugation realm, no one should be able to completely negate my attack!!!", he mumbled.
Still, he wasn't an Arch ranked for nothing, Agramy saw Daimon appearing in front of him and he immediately retired a couple of dozens of meters, not feeling like playing anymore his eyes glowed with fierceness.
"Domain!!!", he shouted and the world seemed to become red for a moment, the cave was fully engulfed in fire making all the ice within five kilometers to melt, creating a huge shocking wave due to the abrupt change from cold to hot.
When the cloud caused by the evaporation of the ice finally dispersed, what appeared was miserably beaten Agramy with burning marks on his face, which was chained by yellow/orange chains made out of fire.
Dimas sighed, at the look of his "home", besides the gates which seemed to have been protected by the inscription, the magic formation and the ice fortress which was protecting the other students of the elite class, his castle became currents of water which were running through the many holes left behind by the activation of Agramy's domain.
"What an uncivilized guy, I have to recreate my den you know?".
Unfortunately for Dimas, Agramy's mind wasn't in a correct state to answer right now, a moment ago when he was activating his domain, his flames were cancelled by Liz's flames, and then his body froze as he felt an overwhelming amount of killing intention targeting him.
Daimon punched his face with his fists which were covered in demon light, making him experience just a bit of hell, Agramy which was laying on the ground powerless felt his heart clenching when he heard footsteps coming his way.
