That person who just called Orion was none other than Runo.
"Runo!"
Orion would be lying if he said he wasn't surprised to see him here.
He had known that people from the other two domains would co to the Magus Kingdom for the Emperor's birthday, but the thought of seeing Runo never crossed his mind. He had never expected that his family was one of the big families in the Human Federation Realm.
And looking behind him, it wasn't just him who ca; others were with him.
He could see Sam and Rina with him.
"How have you been, Orion?" Runo asked, extending his hand.
Orion smiled and shook his hand. "I'm fine, and I'm really surprised to see you here."
"But I wasn't. When we heard that a new genius had erged in the Magus Kingdom who snatched away Astral's number 1 position in the elite ranking, we knew that person could only be you. Therefore, we expected to see you on such a big occasion, and here you are," Runo said.
Orion laughed lightly at that. He hadn't expected his fa to have even reached the other two domains, surpassing his expectations.
Thinking of sothing, he turned to his father, who seed to understand everything and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, just enjoy the banquet."
"Hahaha, Runo, you've made a good friend. I've known Barion since I ca to the Magus Kingdom years ago, and you just happen to make his son your friend," Runo's father laughed heartily.
He had known about Orion and everything that had transpired in that dungeon from Sam. So, it didn't take long for him to figure out that his son had changed so much just because of that person, and he was indebted to him from the bottom of his heart.
Only he understood what it ant to have a son who was too arrogant for his own good, and he had been very anxious about this personality of his son.
But since the day he had returned from that dungeon, he could see sothing had changed in him, and as ti passed, these changes brought about a positive transformation in his son's personality. That made him very happy, and when he learned that it was because of a person nad Orion, he wanted to thank him personally.
However, since he was not in the sa domain as Orion, he couldn't do that, but he always felt indebted to him.
And after just finding out that Orion was the son of a friend of his, he couldn't be any happier.
"Barion, I am really indebted to your son in many ways," he said to Barion.
"Haha, Lucas, forget about that. Do you rember that Estor guy I told you about..." Barion, Lucas, and Estor soon began talking, completely ignoring Runo and Orion.
They looked at each other and laughed before separating from their parents' group and forming a group of their own, including Sam and Rina.
They talked a lot about each of their families. When Orion ntioned he was from one of the seven magi families, they weren't surprised at all, which made Orion believe that his entire biography might have been spread to the entire universe.
As they talked, Orion could feel that Runo had changed completely. He didn't have the arrogant air about him and instead looked calm all the ti.
'I guess people do change,' he noted.
Curious about sothing, Orion asked, "How is your domain different from the Magus Kingdom? Is there also a king?"
Since the ti he had gotten his mories back, he had been wondering about the power system in the Human Federation Realm.
The power system in the Magus Kingdom suited the world very well. An Emperor overlooking the whole kingdom, seven major families controlling seven important parts of the world, each having a king of their own haven.
This made Orion curious about the power system of the Human Federation Realm.
But Runo's answer surprised him.
"It's very complicated."
Orion kind of understood sothing. He believed that since the Human Federation Realm resembled Earth very much—like a future version of Earth—the power system there might also include governnts and many other organizations holding power, like on Earth, instead of a single family like in the Magus Kingdom.
"WHO IS ORION??!!!"
At that mont, a very loud shout reverberated throughout the hall, catching almost every guest off guard.
They all turned to see that a man of twenty years of age had entered the hall, followed by many individuals.
"That guy is here," Runo muttered helplessly.
"Do you know him?" Orion asked.
Runo nodded. "He's from the sa domain as , but he's sowhat of a crack—a battle maniac, you could say."
Orion smiled wryly. "So, he must have heard of in your domain and co to challenge when he arrived here?"
Runo nodded. "That's the case. He's also one of the top five geniuses in our domain under the platinum rank, so you have to be careful."
Orion nodded, and to Runo, Rina, and Sam's surprise, he unexpectedly stepped forward at that mont.
"You are searching for Orion?" he asked, looking at the man.
The man nodded seriously and asked, "Do you know him?"
He appeared to have dark red hair and a well-built body. He wore a light blue suit and a tie. Apart from his square-shaped face, he looked good enough.
"You an the Orion who ranked top in the elite ranking?" Orion asked for confirmation.
The man nodded excitedly, thinking the guy in front of him might know his whereabouts.
Orion shook his head in pity. "You ca at the wrong ti."
The square-faced man frowned. "What do you an?"
Orion sighed and pointed at the man he beat up a mont ago. "Do you see him? That guy is Orion. The poor guy has been challenged again and again, fighting one man after another since he ca to the banquet. So ti ago, he fought his hundredth battle and fell asleep."
"You an to say he won a hundred battles in a row?" the man was shocked.
Orion laughed. "Indeed, just give this man a rest for a mont."
The square-faced man nodded. "My respect for him has increased even more after this."
He walked away towards his family after saying those words.
But Orion's eyes in that mont were drawn to soone who had just entered the hall, and his expression changed dramatically.
