After leaving the restaurant Daimon calmly walked towards Aura's office, it didn't take him long to reach the entrance of the office, surprisingly Aura didn't have a secretary or something like that, instead there was a doorbell which he pressed.
A moment later the gate opened by itself and he entered the building, the place was rather simple there was a big hallway which led to the only door visible, and some decorations here and there.
It looked as if Aura didn't bother to change anything since she took the charge, which was understandable considering she didn't spend too much time in the academy at least until this specific year when Daimon became a student of course.
As Daimon was about to open the door of Aura's office, he heard a familiar voice speaking in a loud tone.
"This is unacceptable, having to wait for a mere one-star mage!".
"That one star mage is also the first ranked of the first year, something you couldn't achieve back then, so I would suggest you to shut up".
"Vice principal Jolbaris, tutor Ogien please don't raise your voices".
"I wonder is this a coincidence or is there some kind of agreement between the Ascott and the Jolbaris", thought Daimon.
One of the voices belonged to the vice principal from the Jolbaris family with whom he had some clashes at the admission exams, then it was the voice of the vice principal from the snow leopard tribe and lastly Boris also seemed to be there.
Previously when Daimon spoke with Aura through their mental connection, only the tutor of the alfear was here, so they probably arrived here after that.
As soon as he entered, Daimon felt a lot of gazes focusing on him but he completely ignored them and just sat on a free chair which was in front of Aura's desk.
Nicolas Jolbaris gritted his teeth as he demanded an explanation.
"If you don't mind me asking why the hell did you take so long to arrive?".
"I was eating so of course it took me some time to finish my meal, so why was I called here, I don't remember doing anything wrong?".
Nicolas nearly lost it, the Jolbaris were trying to bring some of the alfear noble families to their side, so when he received a call from Clarens saying that one of the students which has some connection with the royal family was beaten like a dog, he was furious.
"What kind of answer is that, how dare you make a vice principal waste time, I suggest that we revoke his status as a member of the elite class immediately!".
The same applied to Clarens he was standing next to Nicola with an unsightly expression on his face, he was the one in charge of the safety of his students, and was specifically assigned to that group because some of the students had some connections to the royals.
"It seems the discipline in the wild claw academy is deficient to the point where a first-year student doesn't bother to show the proper respect needed towards a vice principal".
Peak stage Arch ranked aren't cabbages, even the elite class only have a middle stage Archmage which is Boris as their tutor and the alfear that came aren't paladins of the blue-sky academy, the only reason as to why Clarens became their tutor was that connection.
So now if he couldn't find a scapegoat, the one who will be punished is him and the king isn't known for being comprehensive.
Boris saw that Daimon wasn't worried at all and he also calmed down, at this point he knew that kid always had a hidden card up his sleeve.
"Silence".
With a single word from Aura, both Nicolas and Clarens immediately shut their mouths.
Aura then looked at them and spoke.
"You two came directly to my office without any proper request, the minimal waiting time to request an audience with me is one day, so I won't accept any complains regarding who arrived earlier and who didn't… now tell me exactly what happened".
Clarens nodded but inwardly he gritted his teeth.
"It all happened earlier when I took my class to experience the rumored beautiful scenery of the frozen lake inside the campus, then….".
Clarens basically told all the presents what happened, not without adding a few extra things to make Daimon look like the main culprit.
Aura stole a couple of gazes at Daimon before saying.
"So, if I'm correctly understanding, your student played a harmless "prank" on one of the girls of the elite class and in exchange he was brutally beaten up is thar right?".
Clarens had an aggrieved expression as he answered.
"That's right lady Argent, I understand that the young generation is hot blooded, but breaking someone's limbs just for a little prank which had no consequences is too much".
"Bullshit".
Daimon snorted listening to the nonsense Clarens was spouting.
"I wonder if marquis Clarens would think the same if he was the one at the receiving end of that kind of "prank", the duel was over and the alfear didn't have anything to do with the result and yet that guy attacked my sister, not breaking his neck is already being merciful".
Before Clarens could argue, Daimon stroke while the iron was hot.
"If you are demanding an explanation over a distant member of a royal family, then I thing I should do the same, my sister is the young miss of both the Argent and Revy families, in any place attacking a princess is a capital crime!".
"I wonder what will matriarch Erin would say once I inform her of this "assassination attempt", against us".
Both Nicolas and Clarens nearly vomited blood.
"Since when a two-star ranked vine spell counts as an assassination attempt", they thought, as their faces blackened.
Daimon had a ridiculing smile on his face.
"You want to try suppressing me using politics and schemes, dream on, Erin and Elaine will be mad at me if I lose against two idiots after all what they taught me".
After thinking about it for a couple of minutes Clarens then changed his approach.
"Okay you made your point clear, but still your way of dealing with things wasn't the correct one".
Daimon shrugged.
"So, what do you suggest, I already gave you enough face leaving that guy one arm and one leg".
Clarens felt his lungs filled with anger but he still managed to calm down and answer.
"An apology, the beast faction and the alfear are part of the same alliance, so a sincere apology and a small compensation in the form of healing potions, that's the least you can do".
To everyone's surprise Daimon seemed to be actually considering the conditions stated by Clarens… or so they thought until he spoke.
"The apologize is out of question, since the alfear royal family can't afford a healing potion for their members, how about I give you a couple of bottles of light bandage potion?".
"Pfffft".
Boris finally couldn't hold back his laugh, the potion mentioned by Daimon is the worst healing potion that exists and is only effective for those below the star ranked, the reason as to why it exists is because it's the only potion which commoners non mage people can afford.
Even the normally serious vice principal Leeris from the snow leopard tribe couldn't prevent a soft laugh to escape from her mouth, but she recovered her composure once she felt Nicolas looking at her.
They kept arguing for about twenty minutes, every time Clarens demanded something, Daimon turned it for the worst, which made clear for them that he wasn't going to concede at all, unfortunately besides some empty threats they couldn't do anything, the one who acted first was the alfear after all.
Once Aura felt Daimon had made them suffer enough, she gave her verdict.
"This incident will be left behind by both parties, treason attacks after a duel are enough to be expelled, however the student in question isn't part of the wild claw academy, so as a sign of "good will" I won't demand a compensation from the alfear kingdom".
Aura let out a slight trace of her mana pressure as she glared at Clarens and Nicolas.
"Does anyone have a complaint with my decision?".
How could Nicolas and Clarens dare to object now that they felt Aura was getting angry, originally, they thought they would at least get an apology or something to use as an excuse for that alfear wounds.
"Damn, I'm going to have to use a treasure from my own reserves as an excuse", thought Clarens, if the alfear notified his family the only one in deep shit would be him, so he was going to bribe him, for someone with royal blood the price was going to be a high ranked magic treasure so his heart was bleeding right now.
Aura then waved her hand at Clarens and Nicolas as if she was chasing them away.
"If that's all you two may take your leave, Daimon, tutor Ogien and vice principal Leeris please stay behind".
Nicolas gave Daimon a poisonous gaze before leaving the room followed by Clarens.
Daimon didn't care, he leaned his back against the chair and then looked at Aura.
"So besides dealing with those clowns, what was the real reason for me to come here?".
Aura smiled, she pointed at the vice principal from the snow leopard tribe and then spoke.
"New information about the exploration… and also, I wanted you to meet someone".
