Meanwhile, a few minutes after Orion and Mia left the venue of the award ceremony, Orion could be seen, sprawled on the ground,pletely exhausted after an intense sparring session with Mia.


    He and Mia had been fighting using only Kitsune magic, so Mia used a couple of attacks he had never seen her use before.


    Currently, his chest was beating rapidly, but he wasn''t sad that he lost the duel against Mia.


    The lowest tier of Kitsune magic could easily rival any elemental tier Three magic spells, so Orion had been prepared for what he was going to be facing against, and since the tier of Kitsune magic that Mia used was higher than the ones he could cast, it meant that Mia''s Kitsune magic spells were simr in power to that of tier four or even tier five elemental magic spells.


    This was the reason why Orion looked as though he had just barely survived a war.


    Currently, he was lying underneath a huge tree which helped to provide some shade from the bright sunlight.


    He was too tired to move his limbs, so he just wanted to rest a bit, eat, and finally sleep.


    As much as he would love to have a bath, he knew his body really needed sleep right now.


    Meanwhile, Mia, who was still feeling excited and eager to train, suddenly teleported on top of Orion, sitting down on his stomach while she ced her hands on his chest before looking down at his face.


    "Master, Mia is ready for another round, are you?" She asked, breathing roughly and panting heavily.


    "Don''t you think you need to take a break?" Orion inquired, seeing that Mia was equally as exhausted as him, but because she enjoyed training with her beloved master, Mia didn''t mind the fatigue creeping all over her body.


    "No, Mia is ready to train some more."


    "You definitely look tired. Let''s take a break for now."


    "B-but…" Mia wanted to say something, but Orion suddenly kissed her forehead, and Mia blushed at what Orion did.


    Orion rested his forehead on hers while looking into her eyes. "Let''s eat, and after a five-minute break, we''ll continue."


    "Promise?" Mia looked intently into his eyes, eager to hear his response.


    "I promise," Orion assured her and Mia giggled before kissing Orion on the lips.


    Mia''s face instantly turned red and she buried her face in Orion''s chest as she tried to hide her flushed face.


    It was the first time she had ever kissed Orion and her heart was racing even more than before.


    She giggled unconsciously, still finding it hard to believe that she had brazenly kissed Orion right now.


    Meanwhile, Orion''s eyes were still wide open in shock.


    He slowly lowered his gaze to see Mia giggling into his chest and a smile appeared on his face after seeing how excited she seemed to have her first kiss.


    He slowly patted her head and called her name. "Mia?"


    "Yes?"


    "I think we should go out on a pic."


    "Like a date?"


    "Yeah, exactly."


    Mia giggled and raised her head to look into Orion''s eyes. "Just the two of us?"


    "Well, I doubt Mama and Aunt Elena will let us have a pic alone."


    "Hehe.... That''s true. Then will everyone be joining us?"


    Orion smiled and patted her head. "Yes, but I''m not sure if the perverted olddy will be in the castle tomorrow. If not, then it will be only you, me, Mama, and Aunt Elena."


    "I like Goddess Ariel, she''s funny."


    "Yeah, she is."


    "So, we''ll be going on the pic tomorrow?"


    "We''ll have to ask Aunt Elena first."


    Orion and Mia both looked at Elena, whose head lolled against the tree as she acted like she was asleep.


    "How long do you intend on pretending to be asleep, Aunt Elena? We know you''re awake."


    ''I didn''t know,'' Mia spoke telepathically to Orion with a confused look on her face.


    ''Me neither, but let''s act as though we knew,'' Orion replied telepathically and Mia decided to y along.


    "Well, you two seemed like you were having fun, so Auntie didn''t want to disturb you," Elena stretched her arms as though she was just waking up.


    ''You see, I told you she was awake.''


    ''You were right.''


    Orion and Mia stood up from where they were seated and sat beside Elena.


    Once they were seated, Elena asked while bringing out their snacks from her items box. "Do you two really want to go on your date tomorrow?"


    "Yeah, and Auntie is allowed to join us as well."


    "Why would you think Auntie will agree to join you?"


    "Because Auntie loves me, and I love Auntie too."


    Hearing this, Elena smiled and kissed Orion on his forehead. "Fair enough. Auntie is interested in joining you on your date."


    "It''s a pic."


    "It''s still a date."


    "You''re making it sound like I''m going out with my girlfriend."


    "Oh, are you saying that you can''t go out on a date with Auntie because Auntie is too old?"


    "Nope, I''m saying Auntie is too beautiful, and I don''t think I''m worthy enough to go on a date with a beauty like you,"


    Elena''s cheeks reddened when she heard Orion''s words, and she tried her best to hide her flushed face. However, she couldn''t hide how happy she was right now.


    "Auntie wouldn''t mind going on a hundred dates with her favorite nephew," She said and kissed Orion on his cheek.


    "Thanks Auntie,"


    "Okay, little man, here''s your snack, now eat before we leave."


    "Leave? We can''t leave because Mia and I have…" Orion paused mid-sentence when he noticed Mia resting her head on his shoulder.


    She was already asleep and now he could see why Elena had said they would leave once he was finished eating.


    This also meant that they won''t be able to continue their sparring until another day.


    "Should I wake her up?"


    "There''s no need. Just let her stay the way she is. Mia was unable to sleepst night because she couldn''t wait to see you again."


    Orion smiled when he heard what Elena said. "Me too; I couldn''t wait to see you, Mia, and Mama again,"  He said while taking a bite of the snack in his hand.


    Elena took a bite of her snack as well, before asking Orion a question. "So, how does it feel to have your first kiss?"
