Selene softly rubbed Orion's head. "She seems heavily wounded, both physically and ntally. Give her so ti to open up to you. It might take a while."
The maids began serving them their food.
"Don't worry, Grandma. I'm not in a hurry. I've got a long life ahead." He said the last words aningfully.
Eldric suddenly changed the topic. "Lad, when are you going to enter the academy? The entrance tests are ongoing right now."
Orion's eyes lit up—this was what he had been waiting for. "Really? When can I enter?"
"Woah, woah, slow down there, lad," he laughed, looking at Orion's eagerness. "You can go there whenever you want. You'll have to take the test, though—the dean wants to see how talented you really are. So just go wild."
Orion quickly cald down. "What will the test be? History of the Thunderpeak Kingdom? Or my aptitude?"
Selene took over the conversation. "Well, you'll know once you go there, but it won't be anything written like kingdom history. What's even the use of that? You won't be taught sothing so useless unless you specifically ask for it."
"Hmm… that should be useful for nobles, right?" Orion curiously asked.
Eldric laughed. "Haha, it's the best awakener academy in the entire kingdom. Of course, they'd focus more on the awakening aspect rather than politics."
"Hmmm… then I'll go take the test tomorrow. I can't wait to start learning about mana," he said with an excited smile on his face.
The dinner continued with a relaxed atmosphere as Orion, Eldric, and Selene shared casual conversations about the academy, training routines, and even so humorous gossip about recent noble antics.
Fiora and Rina quietly attended to their needs, occasionally sharing gentle smiles or giggles at amusing things.
Eventually, the al concluded, and Orion stood up, stretching slightly. "Thank you for the wonderful dinner, Grandma, Grandpa."
Selene softly smiled, patting his shoulder dotingly. "You're always welco, dear. Have a restful night, tomorrow will be an exciting day."
"Don't stay up too late," Eldric added playfully, "you'll need your strength for the entrance test."
Orion chuckled, nodding at their advice. "I'll make sure to get a good rest."
Leaving the dining hall, Orion slowly walked towards his room with Fiora and Rina quietly following behind. As he entered, he turned to them with a warm smile. "You two have also worked hard today. Rest early as well."
"Yes, Master," both girls softly replied, bowing gently before quietly exiting the room.
Orion closed the door and walked towards the comfortable chair near his bed. Sitting down, he exhaled softly, relaxing into the plush cushions.
"Alright, let's see what I got today," Orion murmured, his thoughts directed inward.
[Master, you received a new title! (≧▽≦)]
Lumi's excited voice echoed clearly in his mind.
"Hmm? Right, I almost forgot about that." Orion quickly accessed his system screen.
[Hidden Achievent Title Unlocked: Bearer of Twisting Fates]
[Effect: Slight increase in future Fate-related encounters and opportunities.]
Orion raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Twisting fates, huh? Seems fitting considering today's events."
[Master, your fate is truly special! This title will help you encounter even more interesting events and opportunities. (☆▽☆)]
"Let's just hope these opportunities are beneficial," Orion chuckled softly. "Now, let check how many System Points I have."
He focused, pulling up his total System Points.
[Total System Points (SP): 257]
"257… not bad at all," he murmured thoughtfully.
[Master, how do you plan to use these points?]
Lumi curiously asked.
Orion considered for a mont. "What do you think would be the best option, Lumi? Should I save these points to expand my inventory or perhaps explore [The Forgotten Archive]?"
[Hmm…]
Lumi paused briefly, thoughtfully humming.
[Well, both have their pros and cons. Expanding your inventory can be useful in the future, though you already have a storage ring for now. As for [The Forgotten Archive], you don't have any relics or items linked to it yet. Saving your points could co in handy during crucial monts. In the end, the choice is yours, Master! (＾▽＾)]
Orion leaned back in his chair, tapping his finger lightly. After contemplating for a short mont, he shook his head lightly. "Leaving the points unused would just be a waste. Gacha has brought surprising benefits before."
[Are you saying what I think you're saying, Master?! (✧ω✧)]
Lumi's excitent surged.
Orion chuckled softly. "Exactly. Let's spend 250 points on 25 draws. Who knows, we might hit another jackpot."
[Yay! That's the spirit, Master! Let's gamble and win so treasures! o(≧▽≦)o]
Orion chuckled at her words, "You just want to see broke. Anyways, comnce the gamble."
[Ding! Comncing 25 draws…]
Orion leaned forward in anticipation, eyes filled with excitent. "Co on, Gacha God, don't abandon this ti."
[Let set the mood, Master! (≧▽≦)]
Instantly, a cheerful and thrilling orchestral lody began playing softly in the back of his mind, steadily building to a dramatic beat, perfectly suited to heighten the excitent of his impending draws.
"Alright, here goes nothing," Orion said, feeling his heartbeat quicken slightly. "Begin!"
[Ding! Initiating 25 consecutive draws! Best of luck, Master! (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧]
