A lucky reunion

A couple of seconds after being hit by Thea's contract breaking ability, Pablo finally calmed down, he was bleeding from his mouth, nose, eyes and ears, some of his skin also teared revealing the flesh below, all in all he looked half dead though he didn't lose as much vitality as his appearance would suggest.

And that of course didn't escape the sharp eyes of the Black Empress, she suddenly grabbed Pablo by his neck and lifted him, while she tightened her grip on it.

"Even with my ability after being freed from the contract, a miserable mortal ranked assassin from Black Wave like you, should be one step away from his grave, so how come you look quite lively, what's your surname?", demanded Thea, her snake-like eyes were opened and a fierce aura was surrounding her.

Pablo was having trouble to breath right now due him being choked by Thea, but that wasn't the worse, he had started foaming from his mouth due to the murderous aura she was exuding right now.

"B-Bolge…", he managed to force himself to say before his eyes rolled back as he fainted, Daimon cleared his throat to wake Thea from her daze, so that she wouldn't accidentally kill their informant.

"Ahem, miss Thea, leave the interrogation to Horals please, I assure you the results will be up to your liking".

Thea nodded and then threw Pablo on the ground, while she stole a gaze at the girl from the angel fish clan before saying.

"Sorry, this guy is related to the leader of the branch of Black Wave on the Maelstrom Sea, a bastard who just like this idiot and Black Beard seems to have a fetish for the members of the angel fish clan, like my friend who is now missing, seeing that little girl made me remind about it… I wasn't there when she needed my help".

Daimon saw Thea clenching her fists with a genuinely angered expression, not only with all the guys that joined hands to ambush the captain of the Silver Dawn pirates, but to herself who wasn't available to lend a hand when it happened.

Only now she realized she was tricked, because Ulkrear and the other general that betrayed her, asked for help during a mission because they encountered a middle stage Stellar rank rival magic beast, so she departed to help them and the pirates made their move at that moment, in other wors she was baited.

Daimon looked at the girl from the angel fish clan and then poked her forehead with his finger, while he kicked Pablo who was still unconscious on the floor, he then nodded at Horals and allowed him to take him to a more private place to start the interrogatory.

While Horals was bringing Pablo to have a good "conversation" to the bathroom, a habit the bone general developed because Daimon didn't like to see a bloody mess on the floor and it was easier to clean in the bathroom,

The sisters saw Daimon getting touchy with that girl and they pouted, while Aisha had a smile which wasn't a smile, which made Daimon bitterly smile, but he momentarily ignored the intense gazes of the girls because there was something interesting happening in front of him.

The mixed characteristics of the girl from the angel fish clan diminished, not only that, her realm jumped all the way to the peak of the Lord rank, and she even grew taller and aged a bit, from looking around 16 years old to 19 years old.

Daimon then looked at the notifications from the system that appeared when he grabbed this girl from her upper back and smirked.

[A continuous curse has been casted upon all the males on the vicinity]

[An Apex Predator cannot be preyed upon by anything, the luck of the host can't be stolen… the curse "Royalty Charm" has failed to affect the host, do you wish to retaliate Y/N]

Daimon pressed no, because he still needed this girl for his plan to succeed, not to mention she didn't cast the curse, it was more of a self-preservation instinct, not only that, his interest was picked because his infinity eyes allowed him to see the curse entering Pablo, while he didn't notice anything.

The girl from the angel fish clan was just an early-stage Lord rank, sure he had abilities that couldn't be noticed by Arch ranks like Pablo, but curses required a direct clash between the resources and preparations made by caster and the mind strength, luck and other factors of the one being targeted.

This curse was activated at the spur of the moment, so unless this girl could be at two places at the same time and the second "her" killed at least a Half Stellar ranked by herself, there is no way she could have cursed Pablo without him noticing like that.

Luckily for Daimon, if some conditions were met, interactions and dynamics were processed by the system, and some options which normally aren't "real", do appear for him, as they trigger reactions for him a system user, which depending on his decisions might turn into missions or other things

Which was the case here, as it triggered a mission once he refused to retaliate, but he left the information to read later in the logs, since he was dealing with Pablo, until a moment ago when Thea entered the room marking the end of his troubles with Pablo.

He then opened the mission tab and was taken aback by the new addition; he had in the pending to accept section.

[Special Missions]

[Helping the Lucky Cursed Princess: After being ambushed the angel fish clan's last royal, had to burn out all the luck she accumulated to survive, since it wasn't enough her lineage and memories made for the difference, bring her safe and sound to her sole friend <!>]

Daimon clicked on the "!" icon and then the details of the mission showed.

[Objectives:

[Bring the Lucky Cursed Princess to the side of the Black Empress (0/1)]

[Secure the Princess well-being (0/1)]

[Give the Princess enough luck for her to recover her basic memories (0/100%) (You must be present when the luck is transferred and there is a 50% chance of you being affected)]

[Reward: The gratitude of the Black Empress Thea and the Silver Dawn Angel Marlene, Lucky Charm tittle]

[Penalty in case of failure: A random bad thing will happen to the host (from tripping to being struck by a lightning on a sunny day) depending on the end of the Lucky Cursed Princess]

[Remaining review time: 30 minutes]

After seeing such a good deal Daimon of course accepted the mission on a blink, it was then he poked the forehead of the girl from the angel fish clan, or more accurately their princess and the captain of the Silver Dawn pirates as well as Thea's friend.

Of course, since he had to be present when she stole luck from others to recover herself, there was a chance of him being affected too… or that would normally be the case, but he can't be preyed by anything.

[Ding]

[A continuous curse has been casted upon all the males on the vicinity]

[An Apex Predator cannot be preyed upon by anything, the luck of the host can't be stolen, the curse "Royalty Charm" has failed to affect the host, do you wish to retaliate Y/N]

He clicked "No", and then since the girl wasn't mistreated since he accepted the mission, she was now in presence of Thea and she took Pablo's luck, the mission ended.

[Ding]

[The mission "Helping the Lucky Cursed Princess" has been completed]

[A new title has been unlocked due to a specific action]

[Lucky Charm: Once a year, the host will receive help from the universe to achieve a desired feat (The host can't chose when it will be applied)]

Daimon raised an eyebrow, it was such a vague effect, but in any case it was a literal cake that fell from the sky, since he didn't have to do anything to complete the mission anyway, so there was no reason for him to complain.

In fact, he might need to thank to the girl from the angel fish clan, who now had a dizzy expression while she hold onto his arm for safety reasons, stealing others luck was a self-preserving instinct for her, so it activated when she was in a life-threatening situation.

'Was it because she was captured by enslavers related to Blaktr that they ended up being so easily exposed… did that allow her to meet me, so that she was saved?', wondered Daimon.

'It's a mix, I would say, luck can't directly go against destiny, she was indeed not directly delivered to that pervert, but she ended in another one of the branches of this degenerate's circus, that was her luck doing its part, she stile luck from those guys and that made it easier for you to find their base, but that was the limit, because the system protects you from being directly affected by such things, you would have gotten a notification if there was an attempt like before'.

'You casually meeting her, and choosing her due to the female assassin from earlier is your luck, so the rest is your merit, she only created a chance of someone saving her by delaying a bad end on her side… but if you ask me, she ended in the arms of a pervert anyway~', jokingly said Evangeline.

Daimon bitterly smiled.

'Hoh, Eve is getting bolder lately, one day my luck will be high enough for you to have a physical body, see if I don't smack your ass', he thought.

Daimon was brought back to reality, when the Black Empress jumped out of surprise, her eyes widened a bit as she exclaimed.

"M-Marlene!".

She jumped on Daimon's lap, grabbed the girl from the angel fish clan and then shook her by her shoulders, until the poor girl paled, she a was currently a Lord ranked being threated so roughly by an excited Stellar ranked, she nearly fainted due to the shock.

Daimon felt a chill running down his spine as he remembered that time when he met Liz and she lifted him to make him roll on the air, or when Erin hugged him so hard, he could feel his bones creak a bit.

'These high ranked girls can be quite scary, Daimon had to ask Thea to calm down, because she was going to kill her own friend by accident, he even saw her ability to steal luck activating, unfortunately he was the only male in the range of it, and he couldn't be deprived from his luck, so it didn't work, also the Empress body was… rubbing against Daimon quite a bit due to the movement, and though he had a really good self-control, just like when he shared a room with the sisters, his body was greedy enough to want to "devour" any beauty that was put in its path.

Not to mention apparently Abraham Van Helsing was a skirt chaser too, which combined with Daimon's desire to have lifelong partners, created the soulmate function, which made him more prompt to desire more women, luckily he didn't let his desires control him as that could be a "massacre", the pheromones of the his Apex Predator even affected Erin and Aura, imagine what would happen if they run loose, though it only affected girls who already had feelings for him, the sisters were here too.

Thea realized what she was doing to her friend and she let go of her, the poor girl from the angel fish clan was about to faint at this point, Daimon couldn't blame Thea though, she saw a random girl suddenly transform into the friend she was feeling guilty of not being able to find.

She changed that much due to the toll that her lineage and realm took, it made sense though, her whole existence was modified after losing so many things, from the last royal or her race to a mixed race slave.

'Well, she escaped the encirclement and ambush of Sting and Black Beard, while being an early stage Stellar rank, that's one hell of a luck strike, the price was high too', thought Daimon as he let go of Marlene, to not cause any misunderstand, she had to recover from her basic memories returning and the Black Empress nearly shaking her internal organs until they became paste.

Daimon could feel the gazes of the sisters and he cleared his throat.

"Though we are almost finished here, tomorrow I'm going to need your help, depending on the information Horals get for us".

That was enough to make the sisters smile and get distracted, while imagining they'll get to be alone with Daimon just like Aisha who was flirting with him earlier when they arrived.

"We are going to tag along as well of course", said Mellie, taking the sisters out of their imaginary world.

"Mm".

Jasmine and Daphne nodded agreeing with Mellie, which made the three sisters's gazes clash with the princesses's, for a moment, sparks flew all over the place, but they were interrupted when Horals, returned with a notebook and a weirded out expression, as he dragged a fainted Pablo.

"Young master I got all the information from that guy… I also have the key to the treasury of this place, even before I asked him, he slipped and broke his leg, the key was hidden in his flesh and fell out of his broken skin it was so weird, I properly cleaned it of course".

"…", Daimon was speechless, to think an Arch rank would trip on the bathroom and break his leg, though his cultivation was sealed, it was such a strike of bad luck, not deathly but really stupid.

Ultimately Daimon shrugged and took the key from Horals, on the surface the operations of this place had to keep go, but they didn't have a need for their accumulated resources to be kept there rotting, so they will gladly "donate" them for a greater cause, making him richer, also there was a lot of scumbags who will be taken care of, but that was the queen's work, he will only capture them as they might have information too, not to mention they were involved with Black Wave indirectly.

"Horals, go and capture all the bastards in the other rooms, if anyone resists break hos four limbs, knock them out, miss Thea can you help me with another contract, this guy will be our key to take down those idiots", said Daimon as he kicked Pablo waking him up.

"Mm", the Black Empress whose impression of Daimon has gone up another notch nodded and then one of her pupils changed from honey yellow to a light green color as she created a contract for him".

Daimon took out disaster and pointed it at Pablo's neck.

"Accept it, or die".

Pablo saw Horals who was yet to leave and his body shivered as he immediately accepted the contract, thus becoming Daimon's second subordinate, though the conditions were completely different, for him orders were absolute if he tried to betray them he will die on the spot as well, basically a slave.
