Seeing that Daimon was confused by her affirmation Erin decided to explain a bit more of her judgement about him.
"Auntie and your big sisters have the highest blood purity among the members of our race, so we have a special kind of magic called "heart mirror" that allow us to see the true intentions of other people, back when I was a little child our clan was in war with the undead and it was this ability which helped auntie manage to survive up to this day.
"Unfortunately, is not something we can activate or deactivate at will, instead it only triggers from time to time and is either for those who will have a positive effect on our life or those who seek to harm us".
"I don't know about Liz or Elaine but for auntie, the very moment I saw you the heart mirror went crazy, so I know you will be an important person for me in the future ♥".
Even Aisha was surprised this time, Elizabeth didn't tell her about the "heart mirror" before.
Erin saw Aisha's reaction and she added.
"Don't blame Liz or Elaine, I prohibited them to speak about it because if other families get to know it, who knows what they would try to do to get their hands on my daughters… it's already hard to deal with the Jolbaris and they are supposed to be our allies, of course this little secret of us pales in comparison to what little Daimon can do and since he is truly treating us as family then there is no need for secrets between us ♥".
Daimon felt warm in his heart, the word "family" was used carelessly but in reality, it was hard to find people that truly cared about other than themselves, just look at Aisha's own father who sold her off to the Naktis, it was reassuring knowing that he could trust his back to someone without having to worry about being stabbed while not paying attention.
Even Evangeline agreed with him on that.
"Do you know why I suggested you to make them your soulmates?", she said.
Daimon shrugged.
"I don't know because you like to mess with me?", he answered.
"Well, that was also a part of why but the main reason is that the system can judge whether a person is a potential "partner" or "threat" to you and it would never be wrong".
"Unless they are above the source of the system which is… impossible", she said to herself, before continuing.
"I maintain my previous affirmation you are truly one lucky bastard; I can't even imagine how many people would kill for the opportunity to be with any of the woman around you, so don't waste the opportunity, at the very least you should made them your soulmates so they don't get taken by some other guy, it's a good future "investment" hehehe"
Just like the whispers of the devil, Evangeline's words made Daimon consider her idea, "I hate to admit it but… she's got a point god damn".
"Mm?", Erin seemed to notice something and she smiled.
"Right now, whatever you had in your mind made the heart mirror activate just like when I first saw you ♥, can you tell us what are you thinking little Daimon?".
Daimon who was lost in his thoughts returned to reality when he heard Erin speaking to him.
"Ahem, it's just something I obtained thanks to my inheritance which allow me to help other people… but I'm not sure if it is a good idea to try it because there might be some "inconveniences" in the future".
Aisha remembered the soulmate thing and she laughed in a low voice.
"Darling, if your idea is that soulmate thing then I completely agree… I only see benefits on that anyway".
Aisha knew that maybe she was being selfish but, Elizabeth and Elaine were the only friends she had made in her whole life, of course the decision was up to them but on her side, she gave her full support to her son offering them the chance to go further than what anyone on the wonder myriad stellar chart has ever gone.
Daimon sighed, "Evangeline I'm pretty sure this is what you wanted to happen from the beginning but honestly, I'm completely fine with it… this time".
"Auntie, big sisters… there is a way for me to help you break the shackles of the Arch ranks on the future but the conditions are not set by me but the inheritance I have so I will show you the "contract" and you will decide whether you want it or not, in mom's case I didn't have a choice because it was needed for me to bring her back but this time it will be up to you".
Erin smiled and shook her head.
"Little Daimon I have lived for more than two thousand years and I have seen a lot of weird conditions to use some kind of spells, besides I don't think it can be something bad if you did it for Aisha".
Instead of speaking about he showed the soulmate tab so they could judge it themselves.
"This is what I'm talking about… read it carefully".
Elizabeth's eyes lit up as soon as she saw the weird "projection" in front of her, as a magic blacksmith she was interested in mastering every new application that magic might have, just like the gun design she got from the human race.
"Wow is this some kind of image done with light magic, little Daimon, you must teach it to your big sister!!!".
Elaine shook her head, although she was also curious about the screen from the system, unlike her sister she paid more attention to what was written on it, just like her mother told Daimon before, her heart mirror also went crazy when she met him but she thought that it could have been a coincidence since he was related to Aisha but now… she changed her opinion.
"Little Daimon, correct me if I'm wrong but this is basically a contract to become lifelong partners, right?".
…
"And you said you signed this with… Aisha".
Unlike what he expected he didn't feel ashamed of having Aisha as his soulmate anymore, "stupid Evangeline corrupting me", he thought before answering.
"Yes, although for mom it was not an option but a necessity".
Elaine didn't say anything else, she turned to see her mother and Elizabeth who stayed silent all this time and seeing their smiling expression she internally sighed, "looks like these two didn't even bother to hide their opinion".
Erin read the conditions of the soulmate and she was a bit surprised; her supposition was more oriented to some type of ritual spells that normally needed the caster to do some preparations or maybe even sacrifices to work, although they were not taught in the academies, spells that burned the life force in exchange of a stronger offensive, healing etc. existed.
So, she couldn't help but smile when she read that the "conditions" were basically things that she already was doing for Daimon, with the exception of the lover part of course but she understood why he doubted about telling them of this, "he is still a little child after all, it's normal he feels shy about this kind of things ♥", she concluded.
Elizabeth on the other hand was still focused on how the screen worked, she just quickly read what was written on it and she didn't bother to give it a second glance.
Aisha nodded.
"Before you decide let me show you something interesting", a thin dark mist appeared around her body before it took the form of a black mantle, Aisha turned to see Erin and asked.
"Did you feel any mana a moment ago?".
Erin shook her head.
"No… wait was that even a spell?".
Aisha smiled.
"It's called "Crow mantle" and it is a booster type spell I got thanks to my darling ♥".
This time the pair of sisters and mother were in awe, a spell used without mana was something technically impossible… of course you could use a substitute to your own mana like mana crystals under certain circumstances but it was just another form of mana at the end of the day.
But just right before their eyes, Aisha used a spell were there weren't any traces of mana on its execution, not only that, as far as they knew Aisha didn't have darkness affinity and she used a non-chant spell as if it was her main element instead of metal.
Erin wrapped her tail around Daimon a bit before saying.
"Oh my, you really like to surprise others, right? little Daimon hehehe ♥".
