The next morning Lucien gathered the family in the Kitchen for breakfast. While they sat around eating and laughing. Lucien started up the business conversation.
"So, aunt Nita, how was England?"
"It was good, the Queen wants our help in taking the northern lands. She says that conquering the north is something an English monarch has never been able to achieve. "
Nita took a large gulp of her morning mimosa and waited for Lucien to comment on her update.
"Good, then we will help. There are only benefits to this alliance. I'm sure Mama Thea can make the alliance official. What about the plan to establish the Monarch authority in the United Kingdom?"
Mama Thea smiled at Lucien and just nodded her head. She wanted the news to be a surprise for Lucien when he found out. So, she spared no details.
"Well okay then. Now to important matters. If any of you feel that you are ready to complete the first baptism, You can take two single-core wands to eat. It will power up your souls and strengthen your body while helping to further fuse with your Tri-core soul wands." Lucien had already sent a letter and a shipment of wands to Mystic falls to help the family out there.
Lucien went on to tell the family about the expected auction and to be pared for anything. After Breakfast Lucien took Vega to go see the Dark elves in their new magic research and development building.
"Ahh, Master Lucien. What brought you here today?" The head researcher, Farvi Kondria. He was a descendant of science House in the Dark elf tribe.
"I'm just here to seek counsel, It is about my partner Vega. She is a Wampus Cat Variant. I want to know about the old worlds beast evolution methods. "
Farvi, lead Lucien and Vega to his office and the sat down to talk about the ways to help Vega evolve. Most of the methods required Vega to be of a higher level. The only thing that Lucien could do for her now, was to feed her energy-rich herbs. However, they were extremely hard to find in the modern world.
"Master Lucien, might I suggest China or South American. The Amazon has many magical herbs unpicked for thousand of year, that have accumulated lots of energy during that time. and if my memories serve correct. China has always been the home of what they refer to as 'Heavenly resources'. It is why the lead the magical world in potions and alchemy." Farvi Explained
Lucien thought to himself for a moment, he had yet to find out where he would spend his vacation this summer.
"That sounds like a great Idea Farvi. Thank you. Though, I do have one question."
Lucien told farvi about his trip to the chamber of secrets and how he stumbled upon Salazar Slytherin's study. Lucien explained what he remembered from a book Salazar had written about the magical beast to Deamon evolution
"My Lord, that is incredibly dangerous. Turning Vega from magical beast to Deamon requires you as her Master. To channel a mass amount of demonic energy. If you are not careful, it can turn Vega into a rogue demon and make you feral. All you will know is destruction. and your soul will be corrupted and as a result corrupt.."
"All of you." Lucien finished Farvi's sentence
"Thank you, Farvi, I was just curious about it. As you know, to have a daemon is extremely beneficial." Lucien added, then took his leave.
In some of the oldest records of witch-kind, It recorded that witches and sorcerers used to contract daemons as familiar. Wielding unstoppable power, the Deamon would grow with its master. But when it reached the higher ranks if the master couldn't defeat the Deamon, the master's entire existence would be devoured by the Deamon, setting it free to roam the world. Destroying everything in its path.
That fact, coupled with the dangerous of evolving a magical beast into a daemon, forced summoning daemons as familiars into becoming a taboo, in the magical world.
Outside the dark elf research building
'My Lord, what will we do? I do not wish to put you in danger for my own selfish dėsɨrė to become stronger'
'Do not worry about that Vega, as your Master it's my Job to make sure you reach the highest possible stage of your existence. and if that stage is not high enough for you, then I will change your existence into something even greater.'
Lucien rubbed Vega's head and leaped on to her back.
Lucien let a loud whistle that Nokby taught him to call Turoth, His Owl.
'Turoth, It is time you Join the ranks, my friend. I will make you stronger as well' Lucien had sent a mental message to Turoth.
"haha Good! I always knew you were meant for great things, Turoth. " Lucien shouted in the air, Turoth began to perform acrobatics in the air.
At the Dubois Castle, Lucien was packing his things, while Nokby was gathering attendants to accompany Lucien. Nokby knew Lucien would want to enjoy his stay and build another manor in both China and the Amazon.
Lucien then Informed everyone he was going on vacation. Which Charlotte, Emma, and Leanna wanted to join. Zhura was naturally coming to spend time with Nokby. They become rather close over the year. Lucien was happy for them. He needed to rebuild the Bennett family and an elf bloodline would only make them stronger. Beside, Nokby was really happy and began to relax a little bit.
This also affected Tondy and Visney. Now that Nokby had found someone, they no longer hid their relationship, which also made them very happy. As everyone was getting ready to leave. A giant tan owl swooped by and dropped a letter into Lucien's hand.
The letter was from Hermione Granger.
