"Here, I want to give you this," Orion said, extending the sack containing the two Devourer's bracelets to Saraphina.
The other won gathered around Orion, and Saraphina cast curious and sceptical glances at the sack.
Saraphina accepted the sack from Orion, her expression filled with doubt. "What's inside?" she asked, her voice tinged with suspicion.
"Open it and see for yourself," Orion replied.
With a furrowed brow, Saraphina nodded and untied the sack, prompting keen interest from the other won.
As she revealed the Devourer's bracelet, a puzzled expression appeared on Saraphina's face. She turned back to Orion. "What is this?" she asked, her frown deepening.
"That is the Devourer's bracelet you asked for yesterday. I made sure to get it for you as soon as possible," Orion responded with a warm smile.
He might have obtained the Devourer's bracelet by chance, but that didn't change the fact that Seraphina had asked for it earlier. Giving her the Devourer's bracelets now would further prove his love for her, and that was sothing Orion always prioritized with all his won.
Of course, it was challenging, but it was a task he willingly accepted.
Upon hearing Orion's words, Seraphina's and Greta's eyes brightened. Saraphina imdiately appeared before Orion and hugged him tightly, wrapping her legs around him as well.
Greta exhaled in happiness, impressed that Orion had gotten his hands on a Devourer's bracelet a few days after Seraphina had asked for it.
However, the rest of the won, who had no idea what was happening, couldn't help but sigh in confusion. They were puzzled by Seraphina's joyful reaction to receiving the bracelet and unsure how to react to the unfolding scene before them.
The jealousy in Ursa, Ingrid, and several others dissipated as they realized that this was likely sothing personal between Orion and Seraphina.
"Thank you! Thank you!!" Seraphina exclaid joyfully.
She sealed her lips with Orion's, giving him a deep, wet kiss before pulling back slightly. A string of saliva connected their lips montarily, and Seraphina quickly wiped it away with her lips before returning to her feet.
"Alright, now tell , how did you manage to get it so quickly?" Seraphina's expression shifted drastically as she focused her gaze on Orion.
She understood the value of the Devourer's bracelet from the mont she heard about it and its functions. She knew there was no way the Four-eared elves would willingly hand it over without sothing equally valuable in return and a valid reason. These were her speculations, and there was still a high chance that negotiations would fail. Therefore, she was worried about what Orion might have done or offered to obtain the Devourer's bracelet for her.
"Well, after I ntioned that my beloved partner was interested and wanted to experint with it for a while, they instantly handed it over to ," Orion cleared his throat and responded with a smile.
Seraphina snorted at Orion's words. She got the hint from Orion's tone and couldn't help but inwardly sigh in relief that Orion hadn't resorted to anything outrageous to obtain the Devourer's bracelet. "Thank you," Seraphina responded.
"You're welco. Just be careful when experinting with them; I don't want anything bad happening to you," Orion cautioned.
Seraphina couldn't help but ask, "Them?"
Orion nodded, "Check it; there's still another one in there," he responded, pointing at the sack.
Seraphina's eyes widened in response to Orion's words. Imdiately, she rechecked the sack, dumbfounded to find another Devourer's bracelet she hadn't noticed earlier due to her excitent.
Seraphina raised her head and looked at Orion briefly before shaking her head tiredly in defeat. "You are really sothing," she said.
"I know," Orion responded, "Don't worry about returning them, though; the Four-eared elves permanently gave them to us, so you can experint with them as you wish," he added.
Seraphina was dumbfounded once again as she focused on Orion. Her thoughts raced as she contemplated how Orion could have permanently acquired only one but two Devourer's bracelets.
Though she trusted Orion's words, she found it hard to believe how he had accomplished all this in such a short amount of ti.
"You know, you're utterly unbelievable sotis," Seraphina said, sighing in defeat.
"Again, I know. Be careful when you're experinting in the workshop. I need to be sowhere now," Orion responded. He leaned in and kissed her quickly before turning around to do the sa for the won nearby.
After bidding them all goodbye, Orion exited the house with Crystalia and imdiately headed towards the Third Border City.
…....…..
Third Border City
Palace manor
Queen Selene sat upon a throne crafted from beautiful crystals, adorned with various colourful gems, her expression impassive as she regarded Elara and a few other clan leaders and family heads standing before her.
"So, the Four-eared elves were indeed ntioned in the 'Ancient Codex' and participated in the 'Great War," Selene stated.
Elara nodded in confirmation. "Not only that, according to the 'Ancient Codex,' they had close ties with the Dream Elves, Nightwalker Elves, and Dawn Elves. Together, they ford a formidable alliance, which enabled them to survive the 'Great War' and secure a stellar gate to enter this world," Elara explained.
"I see," Selene replied, nodding in understanding.
Just as she was about to speak further, the hall's door swung open, and a guard entered, imdiately bowing before her.
"What is it?" Selene asked with a frown as she observed the guards.
Their interruption of such an important eting suggested sothing serious had occurred, prompting her imdiate curiosity.
"Your Highness, Warrior Orion and Princess Crystalia are in the castle, waiting to see you," the guard announced.
Selene sighed in relief upon hearing the guard's words. "Escort them in," she replied.
Although she could already guess the reason for their visit, she was curious about why they were both visiting her simultaneously, especially this early morning.
The guard nodded in response and imdiately exited the throne room.
"You all can leave and focus on gathering more information about them; we'll continue this another ti," Selene ordered, her voice directed at Elara and the others.
They all nodded and proceeded to exit the throne hall one by one.
