Meanwhile, Rina focused on brushing his hair back, tying it up neatly with a silk band. "There," she softly said, stepping back with a look of satisfaction.
When Orion finally looked into the mirror, even he paused for a moment.
’Damn... I actually look like a young noble now.’
[Hehehe~ Master, if I didn’t know better, I’d mistake you for a visiting prince! (≧∀≦)]
Rina placed a finger on her chin and focused on his head, "But your hair are getting longer, do you intend to keep them long, Master?"
Orion looked at his slightly long hair in the mirror, "Well, I will think about that later, they are good for now."
Fiora, on the other hand, stood with sparkling eyes filled with anticipation, "What do you think, Master?"
Orion stood up, giving the robe a slight adjustment as he walked toward the mirror and turned. "...Not bad. Makes me feel like I’m attending a coronation or something."
Rina smirked. "Well, you are going to make a grand entrance at the academy. Might as well do it in style."
[10/10 outfit. But... Master, just imagine the shock on those snobby noble brats when you walk in like this. Ahh I can already imagine noble daughters falling in love with you on first sight~ (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و ✧]
Orion smiled faintly. ’Good. Let them remember my face. As for the noble girls, well I will deal with that when the time comes.’
"Alright, let’s go. I want to see Grandpa and Grandma’s reaction," he excitedly said as he walked toward the exit.
Rina and Fiora looked at each other and proudly smiled before following after him.
Just as he exited the room, he remembered Seraph. "Ah wait, I won’t be back before evening, I should meet up with Seraph before leaving." He said to the two girls following him, "You go on ahead and I will follow up in 5 minutes."
Both of them nodded and continued walking ahead, while Orion changed his direction and headed toward Seraph’s room, which was just beside his own.
Knock Knock
"Good morning, Seraph. It’s me," he said and waited for a second, already expecting no reply from the other side. He softly pushed open the door.
His eyes slightly twitched seeing her sit in the same place again, ’Does she not move from there? Is she fixed in one place?’
Even still, he walked forward and sat down in front of her. Slowly, she turned her head towards him. However, this time even she paused looking at his attire.
Orion clearly caught her reaction and felt smug inside. "Hehe, I look good, right? I will be attending the entrance ceremony of the academy today, so I decided to drop by early as I’ll have to leave soon."
Saying that, he replaced the plate of Moonberries, since she had already finished the previous one.
Without any reply, she quietly listened to his talks. However, if one were to carefully observe her body language, they could understand that she was getting more and more used to his daily talks as the days passed.
And after a few minutes, he stood up. "Well, that’s about it. I’m in a hurry, let’s chat more next time," saying that, he left toward the gate while waving his hand.
Slowly, she turned her head and looked at his fading back, her eyes regaining some of their lost light as she felt the genuine warmth that Orion was providing her.
***
Walking toward the dining room, Orion thought about Seraph. ’I’m getting closer and closer to warming her up.’
