My Elf System

30. Royal Banquet [7]:- Jealous Mia.

30. Royal Banquet [7]:- Jealous Mia.

Hearing the words Adrian said and noticing the look on his face, Orion’s lips stretched into a smile. “Very well then, I accept your challenge and may the best elf win,” Orion stretched his arm to give Adrian a handshake to seal the deal.

“Agreed.”

The two smiled and discussed a bit more before heading their separate ways.

Adrian, Scott and the maid walked towards their initial destination while Orion and Mia headed towards theirs.

While Adrian and Scott were walking, Scott suddenly spoke up.

“You were amazing, master. I’ve never seen you look as cool as you did when speaking with the prince.”

“Thank you, Scott, but let’s forget about that for now,” Adrian had a smile on his face while he was walking and he still couldn’t believe what had just occurred. 

“Once we get home, we’ll immediately begin to plan a new training schedule.”

“I understand, master, and as your personal spirit guardian, I promise to do everything in my power to help you grow stronger.”

“Thank you so much, buddy.”

“You’re welcome master,” Scott smiled to his master before noticing his master’s feet hurriedly walking towards the restroom.

‘Hehe… it seems master has been holding it in ever since he saw the prince. It’s a good thing he didn’t pee in his pants in front of the prince… hehe,’ Scott giggled in his thoughts as he trailed behind his master.

While Adrian, Scott and the maid went on their way, Orion and Mia decided to return to the hall.

However, while they were walking, Mia had a cute pout on her face and it was easy to see that she wasn’t pleased with something that had happened.

“Mia, is something wrong?” Orion asked, unsure of what could have caused her to be pouting while walking beside him.

“It’s nothing, master,” Mia harrumphed while walking with her hands crossed on her chest, and she refused to look at Orion’s face.

Orion rolled his eyes at how cute his spirit guardian looked right now. “You’re lying, Mia.”

“Fine, the truth is that I don’t like that boy.”

“Huh? Adrian? Why?”

Mia didn’t reply at first but when she did, she muttered to herself. “Who does he think he is, coming out of nowhere to become master’s first friend, doesn’t he know I was the first to know master? I am the one who deserves to be master’s first friend,” Mia pouted cutely again, recalling how Adrian became Orion’s friend instead of her.

Although she muttered it to herself so that Orion wouldn’t hear what she was saying, but with his sharp ears, Orion was able to hear every single word she uttered and this made him giggle to himself before he grabbed hold of Mia’s hand.

Mia was surprised to see Orion suddenly holding her hand. “Master?”

“Mia, you shouldn’t be worried about not being my first friend.”

“Huh? Why?”

“Because you are more than a friend to me.”

“R-really?” Mia leaned closer to Orion, staring into his eyes as she waited for him to confirm his words.

“Yes, Mia.”

“Does this mean Mia is very special to master?” Mia’s eyes sparkled in excitement.

“Yes Mia, you’re very important to me.”

Hearing Orion’s words, Mia giggled and her tails wagged excitedly as well. “Hehe......Thank you, master.”

“You’re welcome,” Orion smiled back as he noticed the happy smile on his beautiful spirit guardian.

The two continued to talk while returning to the Grand Hall where the awakening ceremony was taking place, but while they were walking, Orion recalled what Adrian said about his mother.

‘It still feels like a dream to hear that Mama won the tournament at such a young age.’

‘But this means I will have to work hard as well to achieve something even greater,’

‘I know Mama will be very proud of me if I’m able to win the tournament at a very young age and I really want to see how happy she and Aunt Elena will be when I win the tournament,’

‘Adrian’s goal is to become an Earl or a Duke while mine is to become the first elf to ever win the tournament at the age of ten,’

‘Our goals won’t be easy to achieve but I’m prepared to work hard for the future,’

‘Because, I know Mama worked hard as well to win the last tournament,’

‘There’s no doubt about it, Mama is truly amazing.’

“Mama is the greatest,” Orion muttered confidently with a smile on his face as he finally arrived at the hall.

Meanwhile, a smile appeared on Evelyn’s face as well when she overheard her baby praising her while entering the hall.

Orion and Mia joined Evelyn and Elena in the hall and the party lasted for a few more hours until everyone returned home later that evening.

The four of them felt exhausted after the ceremony so they decided to sleep together in Evelyn’s bedroom and because her bed was extremely big, it could comfortably take the four of them.  

=====

The next morning, Orion opened his eyes to notice his head resting on his mother’s beautiful mountain peaks.

It was easy for him to know that he was resting on his mother’s breast because of her soothing scent.

‘Mama’s scent is the best.’

‘It always smells like flowers and I can’t get enough of it.’

‘I love her scent so much,’ Orion buried his head deeper into her bosom and he felt a hand slowly stroking his head.

He raised his head to see his beautiful mother smiling at him.

“Good morning, Mama.”

“Good morning, sweetie,” Evelyn planted a kiss on his forehead and asked. “How do you feel?”

“I feel fine, Mama,” Orion replied before turning around to look for Mia but she wasn’t on the bed with him and Evelyn.

“Is something wrong, sweetie?”

“I can’t find Mia.”

“She has returned to the spirit realm, dear.”

“She has?”

“Yes sweetie, she went back home to see her mother, but if you’d like to know, mama could teach you how to summon her now if you feel like seeing her.”

“Thanks, Mama, but I’ll do that after eating breakfast.”

“Okay, sweetie,” Evelyn kissed her baby’s cheeks but noticed Elena groggily opening her eyes as she woke up beside Orion.

Orion turned to his left to see his aunt with her hair a bit disheveled.

“Good morning, Auntie,”

“Good morning, dear,” Elena said with a yawn as she stretched her tired body.

“Thanks for yesterday, Auntie,” Orion thanked Elena for making all the preparations for the awakening ceremony.

He knew his Aunt had been working very hard to ensure everything worked out perfectly for his awakening ceremony and Orion was thankful for everything she did for him.

Knowing what he was thanking her for, a smile appeared on Elena’s lips and she leaned towards him to kiss his cheeks. “You’re welcome, dear.”

Orion giggled before saying. “You had been working really hard to prepare the ceremony, Auntie. How do you feel?”

Sensing the opportunity to have Orion all to herself, Elena swiftly made a sad look on her face. “I feel sad dear.”
