The wild claw academy is an agglomeration of young people which comes from important families, while most of them have to face the reality that without their backings they wouldn't be too much, there was a place for them to flaunty their wealth as much as they wanted…. the academic city which surrounded the campus Latiz.
When merchant groups and families which dedicated to the manufacturing of many different goods noticed the potential, they immediately proposed a deal to the academy, they would pay to have the selling rights if the area, the land would still be property of the academy but the stores will be in charge of them.
After so many years the city flourished, which resulted in the current scene, raw materials, magic herbs, weapons and equipment, clothes, information, restaurants, there was a bit of almost everything to see in Latiz.
Apparently, Calvin arrived at Latiz earlier than he expected so he lived in the city until the start of the school year, the same happened to Yvonne so the girls separated from them and went straight to their area of choice leaving the boys alone to "get along".
It was a bit weird to hang around with people you just met and if you add to that the fact that Michael wasn't too fond of talking, then things got awkward quite soon, on the other hand, now that the girls weren't here Calvin had a suspicious smile on his face.
"Come with me my fellow students, I will take you to the best place in the city".
Daimon had a bad premonition but since he had nothing else to do, then he shrugged and just followed Calvin, on the way he saw some places which had guards at the entrance, some of them had the emblem of a specific family on their front doors.
Calvin noticed Daimon's curiosity so he explained.
"Those are private clubs, only the members of those families and their allies can enter, they are like social clubs, most of them are managed by third year students, you don't miss anything they basically reunite to badmouth others and do lame parties".
*Pfft*
Calvin's humor made everyone relax, even Michael who at first looked quite forced was now laughing from time to time, without noticing they arrived at something that looked like a modern tavern, on the front there was a big signal with the form of a scepter on which was written, "Happy Wanderer".
The place looked quite nice, it was a big white building with three floors, the door was closed and there was a guard at the entrance so it looked like a place where you can't enter without an invitation, luckily for them Calvin had one.
He approached the guard and showed him a little black card with the image of a dune and they were allowed to enter, the inside was quite modern looking, there were tables and an elegant bar made out off some kind of black mineral, although it was day on the outside, the lights were dim on the inside.
There were no waiters, but the barman immediately received them, well more accurately he greeted Calvin.
"Calvin my friend, how come you are here so early, did you skip your classes or what?".
The three of them took a seat at the bar and Calvin presented them.
"Lucas you unhappy bastard, I came here with my classmates, give us something nice to drink to we can start calling ourselves friends".
The barman nodded and started preparing some drinks, on the mean time Daimon saw that the place wasn't too crowded, some of the tables were occupied and everyone looked quite happy, all in all the place had a relaxed calm atmosphere.
Daimon came out of his daze when he heard Calvin asking.
"This place is managed by someone from my family, what do you think, it's quite nice right?".
Both Daimon and Michael nodded, Lucas finished preparing the drinks and handed them to Calvin.
"Your father told me to not serve you any alcohol, so only soft drinks for you".
Calvin sighed, still the idea wasn't to get drunk but to start getting along with Daimon and Michael so he didn't complain.
Everyone took their glass and with a toast, they drank the contents, it was something citric and refreshing, Daimon liked it quite a bit.
"Not bad, maybe I will bring mom here later", he thought.
After a couple of drinks Calvin patted their shoulders and invited them to the second floor, apparently only those who were friends of the members of Calvin's family could go upstairs.
"Come with me, the second floor has an incredible view of the city", he said as they went upstairs.
The second floor was different from the first floor, there was a corridor with only one door at each side of it, the first door had a yellow sign which according to Calvin meant that someone was already using it that private room.
The other one was always reserved for Calvin; in fact, he used the same black card which he showed to the guard as the key to open the door.
"Cool right, while others use medals and other archaic things which can be stolen, this magic formation needs this special card and my elegant presence to work hahaha".
The door opened and they entered, the inside of the room was quite elegant there was a big couch, a little bar in one of the corners and even something that reminded Daimon a pool table, just like Calvin mentioned there was a two-sided window which occupied a third part of the wall that looked at the street.
"We can look at the city, but those on the other side only see a wall", said Michael.
Calvin clapped.
"Exactly my friend… it wouldn't be funny otherwise".
Daimon was about to sit on the couch when the door opened and a woman with a white mask entered the room.
"Oi brat, your father told me that if I saw you on the second floor, I had to kick your ass all the way to the street, I can't believe it, you have male company, I wonder when did your tastes changed so much?".
Michael who was drinking on the bar nearly choked with his juice, Daimon on the hand was confused, when the woman entered, he thought Calvin brought some "entertainment", but apparently that was not the case.
Seeing his little reunion going to hell Calvin sighed.
"They are my classmates… can't you be more ladylike for once, you wild woman?".
? Daimon and Michael approached Calvin, if they weren't welcomed there was no need to stay, but Calvin mediated.
"Please don't take her words too seriously, she is the younger sister of my father and the owner of this bar… my aunt Mireya Ghrish".
Mireya inspected the young men in front of her, at first, she thought they were just skirt chasers like her nephew, but that didn't seem to be the case, in fact the boy with black hair wasn't even paying her any attention, while the blue haired one did look at her but he was indifferent.
As she was about to properly present herself, a cold sensation filled the room, she saw the black-haired young man frowning his eyebrows, it wasn't only her, Michael and Calvin who were closer to Daimon recognized the feeling pretty well, it was the same as that time at the welcome party, so they knew someone was about to suffer.
Calvin thought Daimon might have felt offended due to his aunt's previous words, so he decided to interfere.
"Daimon, she like to joke around, but she isn't a bad person, don't take it too personally…".
Daimon interrupted him.
"It's not that, I return in thirty minutes… there is something I have to take care of".
Surprisingly Michael spoke this time.
"Something… or someone? we aren't close enough to call each other friends, but isn't that the point of this whole thing?".
Calvin nodded.
"Is something happening to your sister and the girls? They are also our classmates so count us in for the fun hahaha".
Daimon sighed, he has given Aisha so many treasures from the system to protect herself, that he wasn't worried about her safety, but he had a slight feeling of discomfort, and there was no harm in double checking.
"Fine you two also come, but it's just a hunch, I might be wrong so don't blame me if it's just a waste of time, okay?".
Calvin and Michael nodded, as they were about to leave the room Mireya spoke.
"I can't believe my eyes, you are actually not being a lazy ass for the first time since I have known you… although there are girls included which explains a lot, I will also go with you, your father asked me to prevent others from breaking your neck".
Calvin wanted to refuse but Daimon interrupted him
"Let her come, an early stage Archmage will be a good reinforce in case things go to hell".
While Mireya was surprised that a star ranked mage could see through the disguising effect of her mask, Calvin shrugged.
"Fine let's go".
Without saying anything else, they left the happy wanderer and followed Daimon, thanks to core synchrony he could more or less feel where were his soulmates, the closest one of course was Aisha, when he arrived to his destination there was a commotion going on, some students were laying on the ground while Aisha, Leslie, Yvonne and Liliana were fighting together.
The other party was conformed by second grade students, a couple three star ranked mages and a four-star ranked knight.
"Now that is something new", thought Daimon as he walked next to his mother.
The knight unsheathed his sword but before he could say anything, Daimon's voice drew everyone's attention.
"The next time you all will be coming with me, running all the way here isn't healthy".
