Chapter 444 The Enigmatic Lady

Outside, Orion released a deep breath, setting aside the rest of the questions he had wanted to ask Saria, especially regarding the gem he had seen on her forehead. He headed in the direction where the Princess of the Garden had walked.

After a few minutes, he finally spotted her seated on a large rock in the middle of the forest, with several pixies flying around her, engaging in what seemed like a conversation.

Just as Orion noticed them, it was also when they noticed his arrival.

"You are here," the Princess of the Garden said, looking a bit surprised as she gazed at Orion.

Orion raised a brow and responded, "Why are you acting so surprised? Didn't you say that you wanted to see me?" He asked.

The Princess of the Garden chuckled for a few seconds before she responded, "Considering what I've been told, I thought that you would forget our promise and walk away since there would be no one to stop you from deciding whether to keep your promise or not."

Understanding her words, Orion couldn't help but be surprised. "You already heard about it?" he asked as he continued to walk forward and arrived in front of the Princess of the Garden.

"Of course, I have. The fact that the Queen had lost her strength because her magical energy was now sealed, and the only one who managed to save them was the foreigner who came into the kingdom a few days ago. Something as significant as the attempted assassination of the royal family couldn't escape my ears," the Princess of the Garden replied with a smile, locking her gaze with Orion, who was now standing in front of her.

Since he had already suspected that the woman in front of him held more authority than the Queen or any of the major clans in the kingdom, Orion wasn't particularly surprised by her words. The only thing that concerned him was her abilities and how strong she was.

Still, he felt more confident. As such, he said, "Don't worry, an agreement is an agreement. Since I didn't have the chance to discuss it with her today, I will ask and see what her choice is tomorrow. But don't expect too much, because I'm not certain that she would want to stay either."

The Princess of the Garden nodded her head with a somewhat defeated expression, "I know," she said, "But there's no reason not to try, right?"

Orion nodded, considering there was no harm in trying, even if one was determined to fail. Orion opened his mouth, about to ask what she was talking about with Saria.

However, she suddenly added, "Oh, I've been feeling strange lately ever since you penetrated me and released your semen inside me. I wanted to ask if this is normal."

Orion heard her question and immediately remembered that he had forgotten to tell her that she was going to carry his child after their last encounter.

"Ahem!" Orion cleared his throat, wondering how he should explain it to her.

The Princess of the Garden immediately noticed Orion's abrupt change in composure and instantly understood that Orion had an idea of what was currently going on with her. She stared at him curiously and simply waited for him to speak.

Seeing no other way to properly explain the situation without being direct, Orion opened his lips and uttered, "You are pregnant."

"I am pregnant…" The Princess of the Garden said, nodding her head in understanding before she immediately became stunned.

"Who's pregnant?" She asked, her brows furrowing in confusion as she stared at Orion.

"You are. That's the reason why you have been feeling strange lately," Orion responded, with a raised eyebrow at her question.

"I had forgotten to tell you earlier so that you would be prepared, so I'm sorry about that," he apologized.

Meanwhile, the Princess of the Garden couldn't help but be stunned momentarily at Orion's words once again. Of course, after staying in this garden for god knows how long, she had interacted with several generations of the Prismerian Kingdom long enough to understand what being pregnant meant.

Immediately, she shook her head, "I am not pregnant. Some like me cannot become pregnant, so there is no way that I am pregnant."

Orion could only frown at her words. "Are you currently feeling a slight arching and burning sensation in your stomach along with a slight feeling of weakness right now?" he asked.

"Yes, I am." The Princess of the Garden narrowed her eyes at him and responded, "Don't tell me that is the reason you think I'm pregnant."

Orion's brow twitched at her stubborn reluctance to believe that she might be pregnant.

Not wanting to speak any longer, he held out his hand and moved it towards her stomach. However, the moment he touched her, the Pixies unexpectedly shot off from the branches where they had been resting and zoomed straight at him.

Fortunately, Orion had been keeping an eye on them. He instantly stretched his right arm upwards and activated his gift. Bright bluish tendrils of lightning shot out from his outstretched arm in the blink of an eye, immediately converging into a net.

This net halted the advancing Pixies, shocking or singeing some of those who still attempted to move forward. It also inadvertently trapped both the Princess of the Garden and him inside.

"Although I am not yet sure why you choose to deny it, but right now, you are a hundred per cent pregnant," Orion said with a serious expression before he sighed and added, "Trust me, I have seen this kind of situation before, so I naturally understand what I am talking about. But why are you even denying it…."

Before Orion could even complete his words, he felt the hand of the Princess of the Garden tremble within his grip.

Even though it felt like she was blind with her pupils that always felt distant, despite the fact she could see, Orion could swear that he had never really felt like she was looking at him until this moment.
