My Elf System

19. Scary Maids.



19. Scary Maids.

At the edge of the corridor behind them, Orion spotted seven maids with the aid of his skill [Omnivision]. They were hiding behind a wall as they admired their prince from a safe distance.

“Do you see him?” One of the maids whispered.

“Yes, I do.”

“It’s him.”

“It’s really him.”

“It’s prince Galdur.”

“He looks so young.”

“And handsome too.”

“I wanna touch him.”

“Aww, I’m in love, the prince is so cute.”

“Do you think he would mind having me as his personal sla... I mean maid.”

“Me too, I wouldn’t mind doing certain things with the prince once he’s all grown up.”

“Please, ladies, keep your dirty thoughts to yourself. We’re maids of the royal family, we can’t be seen behaving in such…”

“Shh, keep quiet, you’re disrupting my concentration.”

“Shut up, when have you ever concentrated on anything before?”

“Hmm, true, but those things never mattered to me as much as the prince does right now.”

*Sighs* 

“I wonder how you got the job as a maid in the first place.”

“With luck, that’s for sure.”

Everyone giggled after one of the maids said this, but one of them suddenly noticed something.

“Hey girls, are you seeing this?”

“Oh, no. Prince Galdur is heading to the courtyard with the princess.”

“Hurry up girls, we have to see more of him.”

“You’re right. I can’t get enough of the prince.”

“He’s just too cute.”

The seven maids hurriedly walked through the hallway to have a better look at Orion while keeping a safe distance from him so that he and Elena wouldn’t notice their presence.

However, Orion had not only seen them already, but he heard every single word each of the maids uttered as well.

‘Scary,’ Orion uttered in his thoughts.

‘A high elf's hearing range is truly scary.’

‘Also, the maids in the castle are truly scary.’ 

‘It’s a good thing Auntie is with me right now.’

‘Because if she wasn’t, I’m sure the maids would have devoured me with their eyes right now.’

Cold sweat began to accumulate on his forehead and Elena smiled, noticing the worried look on his face.

“You have nothing to worry about dear, those girls won’t do anything to you without my permission.’

Orion felt relieved after hearing Elena’s words.

He wasn’t really worried about the maids. He was just surprised by how honest they were about their desires, hence why he said the maids were scary.

Anyway, Orion had made up his mind not to pay too much attention to the maids again as he tried his best to focus on what he had to do today.

Since today would be the day he awakened his mana core, this meant that he would have to leave the castle.

He would have to attend a sacred site which also happened to be the only place with a dense amount of mana.

It is also the only place in the kingdom where the spirit realm intercepts with the mortal realm.

The spirit realm is said to be the home of many dangerous spirit beasts and spirits as well, which means that it wouldn’t be surprising to see dangerous beasts being summoned along with docile spirits and elementals.

‘Yep, there’s really nothing to be scared or worried about,’ Orion tried to calm his nerves by taking slow and steady breaths while walking towards the courtyard.

“Your Highness.” 

Upon arriving at the courtyard, Orion and Elena noticed a Coachman in front of them bowing before them and inviting them to walk towards a carriage.

The carriage had four huge dark Pegasuses in front of it.

Seeing the Pegasuses, Orion’s eyes widened in surprise.

Never would he have imagined himself seeing a real-life Pegasus before, but now there were four of them in front of him.

Even with the aid of his [Omnivision] skill, Orion had little to no experience of what the outside world looked like.

He had never stepped out of the castle before and his [Omnivision] skill had a limited range, which meant that Orion couldn’t see anything beyond the castle.

However, because he had never really bothered to check out the castle thoroughly, he had never seen the Pegasus before.

With that out of the way, Orion and Elena walked into the carriage and once they were seated, the Coachman hurried to his own seat as well.

In front of him were the four dark Pegasus, wearing a harness encrusted with gemstones.

The Pegasus slowly unfolded their wings, before gliding into the skies with the carriage attached to them.

As the carriage left the ground and the castle, Orion decided to take a look at the castle behind him.

As expected, the castle he was living in was really big.

‘It looks even bigger than I was expecting,’ he thought to himself, amazed by how the elves were able to build such a huge and magnificent castle within the kingdom.

‘However, this wasn’t the weirdest part about the castle.’

‘The weirdest part about the castle was where the castle was currently located.’

In the elven kingdom, the castle was located at the top of the largest tree. It was nestled on the branches of the tree with the trunk of the tree serving as a strong foundation of the castle.

The branches were arranged in a way that made the tree trunk look like a strong, sturdy nest for the castle.

The castle walls, towers, and roofs were all integrated into the tree’s branches, making it look like a natural part of the tree itself.

Of course, the castle also looked like a normal medieval-type castle, which meant that it had a throne room, the royal family's private chambers, a Grand hall for feasts and celebrations, the Council chambers, the gardens, a kitchen, dining areas and so much more.

Since the tree was the largest in the kingdom, it made the castle feel like it was overlooking the rest of the elves in the kingdom.

‘Amazing.’

‘I never knew the castle was so high up from the ground.’

‘I’m so glad to be living in this world.’

Orion continued to admire the castle with a smile on his face while looking at everything around him as the royal chariot glided through the sky with the help of the Pegasuses.
