Anton was happy that the death of a family was prevented because his two Spirit Wolves that was patrolling together with the archmages detected the enemies but he also felt a little wary about the new enemies since they were powerful.
His Spirit Wolves were truly powerful and no ordinary people could contend with them.
“Everyone I have to give you a warning to be very careful during the next few days, at least, until the criminals are apprehended. They seemed to be very powerful so please don’t leave the suite for now and if you do need to, please don’t be alone, and bring at least a couple of wolves with you and one of them should be a Dire Wolf,” Anton said to his family and friends.
“Your suite will be very noisy then since we will be conducting our business here like the meetings for the Cosplay Event,” Antonia said.
“I was told not to open the cinema for now. The Supreme Mage said that it would be dangerous for the viewers since if enemies attacked defenseless people while they were gathered together, it would be a massacre,” Anders said.
“I think we’ll all be fine here. We, the mages will be busy with our magic practice anyway during the day,” Frederick said but Anton could see that Devon and some of the others like Phillip and Selena’s two friends were a little gloomy about being confined to the suite but then again, Anton already told them that they could go outside as long as they brought a couple of wolves with them for protection if they value their lives.
Then all went back to their rooms to continue resting that night. Anton wondered about the goal of the enemies. Did they have specific goals or were they just creating chaos? Were they part of the original passengers or did they enter the ship somehow? Then again, it was not his responsibility to learn that information and he wasn’t curious enough.
Normally, with the situation, people wouldn’t have a restful sleep but because of the Coral Comb and the Pearl of the Ocean that came from the Pink Dolphins and the Blue Whales that Anton befriended, everyone surprisingly slept well. The good thing about the powerful artifacts from the ocean was they didn’t put anyone in a deep sleep that they couldn’t wake up immediately. It was still a normal sleep that one would awaken immediately if disturbed. It was just that once you’re asleep because of the items, it will be a restful sleep that would rejuvenate one’s mind and body.
Even Anton’s rich friends from New Drennor began to look at the Coral Comb with desire because as busy people, they knew the benefits of a restful sleep and the comb already proved itself. They kept offering coins to Anna for the comb and his sister wisely ignored them.
Anton was glad that there was no more incident until morning arrived. It appeared that the attacks only happened at night. Lucia also happily announced that the Dining Hall was open and active so they all went there for breakfast.
Because of the work of the mages, there were still very few people who actually knew about the gruesome incidents and Anton was very surprised that they were also able to prevent the information from spreading within the middle part of the ship where Torun and the others were located. In Anton’s knowledge, information was very hard to contain but he knew that if there were more victims, no one would be able to prevent the news from spreading to everyone. That was, if they didn’t use any magic since, to be honest, Anton still did not have any idea what the true capabilities of magic were. The only thing he knew was to attack and defend with spells. He didn’t have any idea of how powerful magic was in other ways like mind magic, dimension magic, chaos magic, and things like that and those were just his speculations that came from reading novels and watching fantasy shows from Earth.

Anton’s magic was straightforward. He cast elemental spells that would damage his enemies, cast buff and healing spells that would increase his and his allies' defenses and heal them of their damage, and summon creatures that would assist them in their fights. He remembered one fantasy book where straightforward spells like his were considered lower-tier spells. In that book, the spells that were considered high-tier were the ones that would allow a wizard to travel dimensions, alter the fabric of matter, bring into reality conceptualized ideas, and more of the same advanced and complex spell crafting.
He didn’t know if there were spells like that in this world but Anton was guessing that there were. That was also the main reason why he wasn’t truly considering himself as an archmage. He was just a brute wizard who used spells to pummel others. He would only truly consider himself a true wizard if he could cast spells with those types of complex powers that he was thinking about.
Anton had this tentative idea that once his family was safe and once he reached the pinnacle of his Diablo II system which admittedly would be extremely difficult since the idea that he could change and combine the structure of his Diablo II spells made them complex enough, he would then apply to become a student of truly learned wizards or sages of this world and learn the mystery of the universe. That was the only way he could learn how his system truly works.
Of course, before he would do something like that, Anton also wanted to become an adventurer first to fulfill his otaku dream of becoming an adventurer in another world. He didn’t even know if the place that they were going to would have something like the standard Adventurer guild that any otaku could see in animes and novels.
After breakfast, everyone set up the suite as their temporary workspace. The dinner table would be the conference room for his father, Nemina, Antonia, and Lucia, and whoever they needed to talk to.
The home theater setup was still going to be used as everyone’s magic classroom. Anna, Frederick, Lunelle, Ramona, Belinda, and Walter would be using it to practice their magic. Anton noticed that most of the mana power banks were already filled and soon they would be using the table that he had made as a huge mana power bank to cast their spells to empty their spell slots so they could memorize their spells again.
Anton found that sort of magic practice tedious and was glad that he didn’t have to practice his magic that way. He would practice his magic by entering his Diablo II system and leveling up his Paladin character in his room which the door would remain open.
He wondered how the mages in the family would be able to practice their magic with his father and the others creating noises at the dinner table that was transformed into temporary office space. Even Selena and her two friends were a little noisy. Apparently, the three beautiful women were now in their room arranging all of their belongings to be converted to new by Anton which was promised by his father and would do later during lunch.
Anton found that situation a little funny since before they went to the Dining Hall for breakfast, his father approached him and with a red face asked him to repair Norma and Belue’s clothes and other belongings using his magic. Selena had been telling them of his wonderful magic that made clothes, and pieces of jewelry, however old and torn to something new. Of course, he agreed but he did joke about it a little about making Norma and Belue his father’s harem which earned him a knock on the head.
