Daimon put the whole situation with Ernest in the back of his mind, back when they were bathing Erin gave Aura the stage light but this time that wasn't the case, she extended her arms.
"Come sit with me little Daimon", she said.
Daimon sat down on her lap which made the owner of the restaurant who was waiting to take their order almost forgot how to breath, "the matriarch seems to be really close with this young boy", still she knew this was not her place to speak so she limited herself to smile.
Elizabeth has ordered food from this restaurant before so they left her decide what would they eat, Elizabeth smiled, she pointed at some of the options in the menu while being careful enough to avoid Daimon see what they were, the owner of the restaurant nodded and left the room.
Aura who was sitting on the right side next to Erin stole a couple of glances at Daimon, she was still surprised by his boldness before, being kissed and kissing are two different things, especially when you're the one receiving the kiss is a half emperor.
"Erin, that old bastard is going to do something stupid sooner or later you know?", she said.
Erin smiled.
"It's easier to avoid a spear in daylight than an arrow in darkness, of course Ernest and his supporters are going to be nervous since I'm ignoring their voices, they will start making mistakes which will allow me to identify every one of them and… deal with them".
Their conversation was interrupted by someone knocking at the door, after getting Erin's permission three waiters carrying a lot of plates with different kinds of meat and vegetables, the owner placed a large grill over the table while the waiters accommodated the plates around it.
The waiters bowed once and left the room without raying anything and the owner explained.
"This is a tradition we copied from the humans, when they are with their closest friends or family, everyone is free to eat from each other's plate to demonstrate how much they trust themselves".
"The meat is selected by its taste not by the rank of the magic beast they belong to… still there is ninth star ranked meat on the plates marked with a red stripe so please be careful", said the owner while looking at Daimon and Aisha.
Erin nodded and the owner retired, without waiting Aisha took a fork and used it to take a piece of meat, she put some spices on it and placed it on the grill, she changed the side that was cooking after a couple of seconds and once it was completely done, she extended her arm and offered it to Daimon.
"Say "ahhh" darling ♥"
Daimon accepted her offer, the meat was quite tender and the taste was really good, the spices combined perfectly with it and the fact that he was personally feed by a beauty like Aisha complemented all.
"It's quite tasty, thanks mom", he said.
Hearing that of course all the girls wanted to try doing the same so one after the other took different portions of meat and cooked them for him to eat, until it was Aura's turn, she decided to make things interesting.
She took a piece of meat from one of the red stripped plates and cooked it, she bit it and then offered the rest to Daimon.
"I wonder will you accept the food personally cooked by your master?".
Daimon sighed, she was clearly trying to get back at him for the kiss in the bathroom, unfortunately things were not going to work as she expected.
Evangeline surprisingly took it as a challenge.
"Humph, you are the apex predator, it will be a joke for all the existence if you ever feel bad because you ate something, don't worry and eat it".
Daimon smiled and before Aura reacted, he ate the meat.
…
Eating meat of magic beasts with a higher realm than the one you are will have two probable ends, first you will get a simple stomach ache or secondly if the difference is too much then… you will explode due to the excess of mana that eating it will apport to your body.
Of course, Aura carefully selected one that would at most give Daimon an upset stomach instead of a horrible death but contrary to what she expected, nothing happened Daimon even took other pieces of high-level meat and ate them.
Aisha laughed.
"Common sense doesn't apply to my darling; I suggest you to stop treating him like a novice mage… Aura".
Erin smiled.
"Speaking of not treating little Daimon as a little kid, I think you owe him a "little reward" again, he managed to do something you didn't expect, right?".
Aura was speechless.
"This cunning fox… she actually saw everything that happened back in the bathroom", she thought, still she wasn't known for her bravery for nothing.
Aura approached Daimon and gave him a short kiss, of course the other girls couldn't be left behind and did the same, even Elaine kissed him once.
"It's easier when there is no reason to be ashamed since everyone is doing it", it's what all of them thought.
Having feasted on both the food and the girls Daimon felt satisfied, they finished eating and the owner of the restaurant didn't charge them anything, now that other people saw the matriarch eating here, there will be lines forming to get a table on the first floor just in case they have the luck to see Erin and her group here again.
Now that everyone had their fill, Elaine wanted to show Daimon some of the interesting places of the Revy clan, still it was getting late so they only visited the area near the clan head's mansion.
They arrived at a big white house, on they could see a lot of children, some looked to be in the same age as Daimon, but there were others who were older, they entered the house and Daimon could see there were a lot of classrooms, in some of them the kids were learning the basics of magic theories, while in others there were some easy practical examples.
"It looks like a kindergarten", he thought.
Elaine smiled; this was something she implemented.
"This is a pre-academy, since everyone just start assisting the academy once they become one star ranked mages which often happens when they turn 13 or 14 years old, what do you say little Daimon would like to try it?".
Erin immediately refused.
"What can they teach little Daimon that two half emperors can't teach him, besides since we became soulmates we are no longer affected by the collective contract, so there is a lot of things we can talk about… like forbidden spells".
Aisha agreed.
"Erin is right, if someone is going to help my darling on his magic theory foundation, two half emperors are the best one can probably get… well with the only exception of the Greenwich Sage maybe".
Aura interrupted this time.
"Nah that weirdo, loves books and knowledge more than his own life but he is not the type to share them with others, I remember that some of the old farts in my academy tried to invite him over to give conferences and his answer was "if you want my knowledge then you must offer me something I don't know yet", the dumbfounded expression in their arrogant faces was priceless".
Daimon agreed with Erin, although he looked like a kid, mentally he wasn't one so spending time in a place that looked like a kindergarten would be boring, besides why would he choose to pass the time with kids when he had some of the most beautiful women at home.
"Auntie and mom are right, I think it would be better for me to learn at home, I will go to the academy once the time comes", he said.
Erin saw the sun setting and she smiled.
"Speaking of the time, I think is time to sleep now… Aura are you going to stay?", she asked.
Aura yawned.
"Yeah, I decided to live in your mansion from now and onwards, my presence is only required in the academy from time to time anyway, now I have something more important to give my total attention ♥".
