43. {NET 2}:- Mia Loves Master Too.

Evelyn nodded her head in understanding before turning her attention back to her cute little bundle of joy.

She knelt down before Orion and hugged him tightly. "My baby, Mama is going to miss you,"

Orion smiled and hugged her in return. "I'll miss you too,"

Evelyn pulled back from the hug to look into his eyes. "Don't forget to have fun and never forget that nothing will ever change the way Mama feels about you, okay?" 

"Okay, Mama,"

Evelyn smiled and kissed Orion on his forehead. "Mama loves you so much sweetie,"

"I love you too Mama,"

Elena also knelt down before Orion and kissed his forehead as well. "Good luck dear and never forget that Auntie loves you too,"

"I won't, and I love you too Auntie," Orion replied back with a smile on his face.

However, he could hear a certain vixen giggling behind him, so he turned around to see his beautiful spirit guardian.

"Hehe..... Mia loves master too," Mia said with a hint of redness on her cheeks before kissing Orion on his forehead just like Evelyn and Elena.

Orion smiled and kissed Mia on her forehead as well. "I love you too, Mia,"

Mia's cheeks and ears reddened instantly because unlike Evelyn and Elena who kissed him, Orion didn't kiss them back.

Also, hearing Orion saying that he loved her made the little vixen heart to beat faster than ever before.

Mia slowly held on to her chest, almost as though she was trying to slow down her rapid beating heart.

Orion noticed this and a smile appeared on his face but he also noticed the look of jealousy on his mother and Aunt's face who were still kneeling before him.

Orion rolled his eyes with a smile on his face because he knew what they wanted, so he beckoned them to come closer and he kissed their foreheads as well.

However, the moment he was done with this, Orion suddenly recalled Hilda and the maid standing behind him.

He swiftly turned around to see the two of them trying their best not to look at what was going on in front of them, but their reddened cheeks and ears already made it easier for him to know that they had been watching and listening to everything that had occurred.

His cheeks reddened in embarrassment when he suddenly realized what he had done in public.

Before today, whenever things like this occurred, it was always done within Evelyn's bedroom or whenever it was just the four of them in the castle but now, he had openly kissed three beautiful females and brazenly declared his love for them as well, it would surely take a few hours for him to get over the embarrassment he had made of himself.

With that out of the way, the maid guided Evelyn, Elena and Mia to a separate castle reserved for the royal family while Hilda guided Orion into the castle where other contestants were waiting.

As they made their way to the castle, Hilda harrumphed before opening her mouth to speak. "It's been a while since I last saw your Highness. Although, it's been a decade since we last saw each other, I hope Your Highness hasn't forgotten about me already,"

Hilda was there on the first day Orion arrived into this world. She was also the female elf who instructed him on what to do when Orion awakened his mana core and summoned his spirit guardian.

"I haven't forgotten about you, Miss Hilda and thank you for everything you've done for me and my family. I really appreciate the instructions you gave me during the time of my mana core awakening,"

"You're welcome Your Highness, I'm really pleased to hear you say that, but do you know I was also present during the Royal banquet, celebrating your mana core awakening?"

"No, I didn't know. So, you really came? I'm sorry I didn't recognize you among the other nobles,"

Hilda giggled and replied. "It's fine your Highness and besides, my husband and I were seated on a seat a bit far from where you could have seen us,"

'Oh, so she has a husband?' Orion thought to himself..

'I wasn't really expecting this but then again, I knew little to nothing about Hilda until today,' 

"To be honest, Your Highness, I was surprised when Viscount Joralf Meir asked if you would be participating in the tournament,"

"He did?"

"Oh, you didn't know?"

Orion shook his head in response to her question.

Joralf Meir was the father of Adrian, so Orion knew about his name through Adrian.

However, when Joralf asked Evelyn if the prince would be participating in the tournament, Orion wasn't in the grand hall, he was with Mia and didn't know about their discussion.

"Anyways, I'm glad you summoned the courage to participate with everyone,"

"Thank you, Miss Hilda,"

Hilda giggled once again after hearing Orion's cute little voice. "Your Highness, you don't need to act so formal when talking to me, you can call me Hilda, I'll really like that,"

"Okay,"

"Thank you, Your Highness, but do you know, you're the youngest elf participating in this tournament?"

"I know the age limit is between ten to seventeen but I wasn't expecting to be the only ten year old elf participating in the tournament,"

"You are the only one , Your Highness. Other elves in the Junior section are between the ages of thirteen and seventeen. So, please try to have as much fun as you can throughout the tournament. Our aim is to ensure all nobles have fun in the tournament, however, they shouldn't forget what it means to be a noble,"

Orion smiled and nodded his head in understanding. "Okay Hilda,"

Hilda smiled in return but suddenly recalled something she forgot to give to Orion.

"Oh, I almost forgot, Your Highness, please have this," Hilda handed Orion a blank card.

"Hilda, what is this?"

"It's a magical card Your Highness, the first of its kind. It was recently developed by the combined efforts of humans and witches from the human kingdom and witch kingdom,"

"Humans and witches made these?" Orion inquired with sparkling eyes.

Hilda giggled after noticing the excited look on Orion's face. "Ufufufu--- It seems Your Highness have heard a few things about humans and witches living in other kingdoms,"

"Yes, Mama and Aunt Elena told me a lot about them, but what does the card do?"

"The magical card is linked to an advanced magical technique, developed by us. It helps to display your name, age, status and it also helps to ensure accurate and real-time updates of the progress you've made. Try applying your mana into the card," Hilda instructed and Orion did as he was instructed.

The blank card suddenly changed color and a few elvish words appeared on the card.

Just as Hilda had mentioned earlier, Orion could see his name, age, status and a number written at the top left corner of the card.

"The number represents the room Your Highness will be staying in the castle. The castle is really big and it has hundreds of rooms capable of occupying all elves contesting in the Junior Tournament section, there are also other rooms available for music and indoor games,"

Orion nodded his head in understanding before turning his gaze towards his card once again to view the room he had been assigned to stay in.

'It seems I'll be staying in Room 111,'

"I would advise Your Highness to keep your card in your pocket. Once you're inside the castle, you can either keep it with you at all times or you can keep it someplace safe in your room," Hilda advised and Orion placed the card into his pocket.

They stepped into the castle and Orion noticed a large hall with hundreds of elves standing and talking with one another.

The moment they noticed his presence in the hall, everyone became silent and they bowed towards him in unison.

Even though the hall seemed quiet, Orion's heightened sense of hearing could hear the whispers occurring between the elves bowing before him.

"Hey, Carl, What's wrong? Why's everyone else bowing? Is Her Majesty here?" A young forest elf asked his friend while his body remained bend, bowing towards Orion's direction.

They were in the far end of the hall, so they couldn't see Orion who had entered the hall just now.

"No, Her Majesty isn't here, but Prince Galdur is,"

"The Prince? He's here?"

"Yes, didn't you hear one of the nobles yelling for everyone to bow down for the prince?"

The two elves were commoners contesting in the elf tournament.

Aside from these two elves, Orion also heard four female elves around the age of seventeen whispering to each other.

"I heard the prince is here," One of the female elf said.

"He is,"

"I can't believe we will be contesting in the same tournament as the prince,"

"I know right, It feels like a dream,"

"Were you able to see his face?" The first female elf asked.

"Yes,"

"Me too,"

"Really, How did he look like? Was he handsome?" The fourth girl inquired.

"He was----" The second female elf began to reply but she was interrupted by the sudden sound of explosion erupting from the raised platform at the far end of the hall.
