Reincarnated With The Van Helsing System

Daimon saw the previously worried Walford now having a smile of contempt on his face, and he smirked.

"Oh, so you recovered some confidence, that's good otherwise it will be no fun crushing you", he said.

Walford's face twisted, up until now he has had to live under the shadow of the top three, his grandfather told him that he was being prepared to shine at an important point for the Arcarius family.

But deep inside he knew that besides Ezequiel, he had no confidence in defeating Lance or the crowned prince, and that was making him go crazy, as the say goes, comparisons are a source of troubles.

But all that was left behind when his grandfather presented him with the legacy of the Arcarius, the three-colored water, thanks to that his battle prowess increased to the point where he didn't need to fear Lance or the crowned prince, he was finally a part of the top three.

Naturally he wasn't happy just with that and instead he wanted the fame and recognition that becoming the strongest in the young generation of the kingdom will bring to him and the Arcarius.

And his dream seemed to be becoming true during the first three rounds, he got nice results and he just needed to face the crowned prince and Lance on the fourth round, his grandfather paved the way to him and his subordinates, so that they wouldn't encounter too many obstacles.

That unfortunately worked not only for him, but for those who encountered members of his team though, but it was a small prince to pay, the more members of his team that arrived at the throne room, the cleanlier his victory over others will be.

But now in front of him, everything crumbled apart, three captains the crowned prince included were eliminated by a nobody who appeared out of nowhere, and since there was so little time left, and the other party has sat on the throne twice, while he hasn't been able to even approach it, there was only a single path for victory in front of him, and that is defeating and eliminating the silver haired masked guy, from the tournament.

With a hatred filled expression, Walford beckoned and his four subordinates surrounded him, so that there was one in each direction with him as the center.

"I won't make the same mistake as Terry, if one controlling the power of a bunch isn't enough to beat you, how about an army acting together".

"Heavenly Turtle Battle Array!".

Battle aura suddenly exploded around the bodies of Walford and his team, a character appeared above each one of them, and then the five sources of battle aura mixed together, the ground shook a bit and a large curtain of dust was raised.

"Mm?", Daimon noticed the temperature of the throne room suddenly dropped dramatically, to the point that a thin layer of ice started appearing on every surface, including him and the girls, that being said they just circulated some mana to get rid of it, with the exception of Liliana who completely ignored the cold.

The curtain of dust was suddenly blown aside by a large beast-like extremity made out of ice blue battle aura, to reveal the result of what Walford did earlier, it was the application of battle aura exclusive for Archknights, an avatar made with battle aura solidification!

And a giant fifty-meter size turtle made of ice battle aura to be more accurate, the four members of Walford's team were each placed at the four legs while Walford was floating in the neck of the turtle, working as the bridge between the body and the head.

"What do you think, this is the legacy martial art of my family, one that we have kept a secret up to this day, well it's not like we haven't used it before, but there were no witnesses left whenever we had to", said Walford.

Daimon injected mana in his infinity eyes and saw the different mana flows that were conforming the giant turtle, everything was tied together by three-blue colored mana, which was a thing the five ones forming the turtle had in common, if anything Walford's three-colored mana was a bit brighter than the others.

'Well, the Minister did say tat after drinking that thing one would be enlightened in water related affinities for a certain amount of time, and also the strength will be amplified for some time, so they are using that as a way to project a temporal battle aura avatar, so he realized that alone he is no match for me', he thought.

Daimon was right, Walford previously believed he alone could beat Lance and the Crowned prince in a 1v1 battle, but after seeing that spell Lance used against Daimon and the fact that Terry could use the second step of Bloodlust to reach the Arch rank, he realized he was still short a bit to be on par with them.

Luckily the four who reached the throne room of his team, all have drunk the three colored water once, and combined with him who has drank it twice plus the fourth effect of the lakes, he was able to use the trump card his grandfather prepared for him.

Outside of the maze, the spectators were in awe, the knight ones especially, how could they not recognize the application of battle aura that only peak Mortal level knights can use.

Daimon had confirmed a few suspicions he had with Vincent earlier and this one was one of them, first the people of Neptune didn't gain a Manifestation Phenomenon nor Will Manipulation when they were in the Lord ranks, which made the average Lord rank from Neptune weaker than the average Lord rank from the Wonder Myriad Stellar chart.

Second, the Arch ranks here only developed a Domain or a Battle Avatar when they reached the peak, that's why those guys riding flying fishes they met when they arrived at the second layer of Neptune, were terrified when they saw Horal's Avatar, despite the fact that he isn't peak Arch rank but a middle stage one.

Daimon previously supposed this, because although he has seen Annete using a domain when she attacked Sting, Mellie who has fought seriously at his side and isn't any worse in terms of talent than her older sister, didn't have a Manifestation Phenomenon, it didn't make sense, unless you completely eliminated the traits developed by Lord ranks from the equation.

'So, the traits gained thanks to the major realms are indeed related to laws huh, miss Aliya is going to be charmed to learn this information', thought Daimon.

Now that he could peek at laws, he could see that what was holding everything in place for that giant turtle, despite the different battle auras used to create that pseudo-Avatar, were the law of the three lakes, which were resonating in the bodies of Walford and the other four.

And yet this was only possible because of the positive effect of the lake, the three-colored water they drank wasn't enough to achieve this, but he could tell that Walford is a step behind of turning into a Knight like the ones he knows off, meaning that if he is able to endure a third dosage of three-colored water while he is in the Lord rank, he will develop Will Manipulation, and probably be able to manifest a Battle Avatar at the early stage of the Arch rank, like every knight back at Daimon's galaxy.

Outside of the maze, the Minister was all smiles, he gazed at Vincent with mockery, for this moment, he has endured the tittle of "Number two" of the kingdom, ever since his teenage years, the lakes have been in his family for such a long time, but those who could absorb even one dosage of the three-colored water are rare, and so far, only him and Walford have been able to endure two of them.

Unfortunately for him, the second one he drank was when he had already become an Arch rank, back then he felt a sensation of loss, as if he missed something really important, something that would have changed his life, if he only had drunk the second dosage while in the Lord ranks, so through the years he tried a lot of times, putting his faith in the younger generations until Walford who was equal to him in terms of talent appeared.

"Oh, so the Minister has plagiarized uncle's ability to control other people's water mana, and made it into a legacy martial art which was "hidden" for an important moment, how dramatic~", Raymond who was in cloud nine a second ago, was brought down all the way to hell, by Annete's sharp words.

But before he could complain, Vincent added.

"No, he really "kept" this secret up until now, because none in his family was or is able to pull this off, that child is only able to do it thanks to the external help of the lakes, am I right, Raymond?".

The Minister gritted his teeth, he knew this would happen, though none of them could see the laws of the lake, for maximum Stellar ranked, they could still "feel" traces of them, they are surrounded by laws all the time after all.

And it was as Vincent stated, the effects of the lake were increasing the effectivity of the three-colored water in Walford and his team member's bodies, it was like drinking another dosage without any side effects for them.

Though temporal, Walford became the first to enjoy the results of drinking three dosages of three-colored water while in the Lord ranks, in the history of the Arcarius, his realm was even temporarily boosted to a middle stage Lord rank, but that's not what mattered, but the fact that the Battle Array could be displayed thanks to that.

"Humph, so what, you Malleus can control other water mages mana, and my Arcarius can do the same with ice battle aura, we are finally in fair terms, and you are now complaining, Vincent", he coldly said.

In Raymond's mind, he and his family were always one step behind Vincent, because of this, but now things will change, after experiencing a temporal triple dosage of three-colored water, his grandson should be able to endure a real third dosage later on, and then the effects won't be temporal, his Arcarius family will get an heir with the potential to lead a whole generation, it was a turning point for his family.

…

Back at the maze, Daimon became a flash of purple light and charged towards the giant turtle.

"Clang!", the sounds of metal colliding echoed through the throne room, as Disaster clashed against the right frontal leg of the turtle, he saw that one of the many pieces of armor that was previously protecting Walford or his other team members moved through the outer layer of the turtle, and was used to block his attack.

Not only that, but the turtle wasn't pushed backwards like the crowned prince, which made Walford wildly laugh, in this form they were essentially a tank, the battle aura of five knights in the Lord ranks, since his subordinates got boosted from the star ranks, to the Lord rank, combined and amplified was enough to parry the shockwave caused by the silver haired masked guy's monstrous physical strength, and the Half Stellar ranked pieces of armor could stop the attacks from that ominous black sword.

All the observation and scheming his grandfather and him had done so far, was finally paying off.

"What happens, even a monster like you can't outshine the one hundred tons of physical strength that this Battle Avatar can create right hahaha!", Walford wished so and the right frontal leg of the turtle took some impulse and attacked Daimon, who responded by swinging Disaster at it.

"Boooom!", a thunder-like explosion occurred the moment the two attacks clashed, sparks flew as the three armored layered leg of the turtle clashed against Disaster, the attacks cancelled each other and none of them was able to get the advantage.

"This is just the beginning, do it you four!", shouted Walford, originally in this battle formation, a mage should be in the shell position of the turtle to use long ranged attacks as a complement of this tank-like Battle Avatar, but his vice-captain which is the only mage the Arcarius has been able to nurture so far, was eliminated, so now he had to rely on the four subordinates to launch long ranged martial arts for his plan.

"Ice Hail!", from the four legs, countless pieces of sharp and heavy ice were shot, aiming at both Daimon, the throne where the girls were sitting and the possible retreat paths they could take.

The machine gun like attack rained upon the whole area, and the sounds of little ice crystals exploding as well as the ground or anything that was attacked by it being destroyed filled the room.

"Stop!", only when Walford ordered, the four knights on the legs of the turtle ceased the fire, a cold mist liberated by the explosion of all those ice crystals was filling the room now, but it was all dispersed by an explosion of white flames in the middle of the room, right in front the throne.

Daimon's figure who was standing in front of the girls that left the throne to assist him, was revealed when the mist disappeared, if he entered Core Synchrony, he could easily deal with the pseudo-Avatar in front of him, since his battle prowess reached, he middle stage of the Arch rank in that state, but that would be revealing too much too soon.
