'My attributes have increased a bit.'
'The bloodline feature has also been added as well.'
'Aside from these two, there are no other changes in my status.'
'Too bad the percentage of my mage and knight rank didn't change.'
'I think the Blaze rats I fought couldn't increase my rank because I was stronger than them.'
'I guess this means I will have to face stronger beasts and monsters if I want to rank higher.'
'Oh well. Let's call it a night.' Orion yawned, and his eyelids became too heavy for him to stay awake.
A few minutes later, Orion fell asleep just like Evelyn and Elena.
The next morning, he groggily opened his eyes to see his wonderful mother smiling at him with a beautiful smile on her face.
"Good morning handsome. Did you sleep well?" Evelyn asked, gently stroking Orion's blonde hair.
Orion smiled, enjoying the touch of his mother as he responded to her. "Good morning, beautiful. Yes, I did."
Once his eyes had adjusted to his surroundings, Orion looked toward Elena and noticed that his beautiful aunt was still asleep like a cute princess.
He smiled, but he could still feel his head being stroked by Evelyn, and he returned his attention to her; then he recalled how he woke and found Evelyn already staring at his sleeping face.
It wasn't even the first time he would wake up to see his mother stroking his hair and smiling at him.
Orion wondered why his mother loved doing this every morning.
"Mama really likes looking at me in the morning while I'm sleeping."
"Yes, I do. Mama loves waking up in the morning to see my baby's cute little face while he sleeps."
"Why do you do that every morning?"
"Because baby is too cute and irresistible." Evelyn rubbed Orion's nose with her own, causing him to giggle.
"Mama is really weird."
"You think so? Well, I think Mama just doesn't want to forget baby's cute little face. If possible, Mama would prefer to stare at baby's face all day long."
"Too bad I don't like sleeping for hours."
"Yes. It's really a shame, and that's why Mama is trying to save all of baby's cute images in her head before you grow bigger. Mama only wishes that you will remain as cute as you are for a little longer before you grow and become even more handsome." Evelyn rubbed his cheeks with hers and Orion smiled a bit before thinking about what his mother said.
He understood why his mother would want him to remain young forever, but Orion would prefer to be an adult right now.
Evelyn noticed the look on her baby's face. She could see that Orion was already lost in his thoughts even though a beautiful elf mother was currently in front of him, and she knew the reason why he was thinking too much, so she tried to put his mind at ease.
"Mama would be happy if baby could remain as young as he currently is for a long time, but Mama would definitely be a lot happier to see baby becoming a handsome adult soon." Evelyn smiled and kissed Orion on his forehead.
"Anything for you, dear.".
The two continued to converse and giggle until Elena joined them in the bathtub, and they all bathed together as the bathroom became filled with the sound of them talking, laughing, and playing.
======
A few days later, a handsome young elf walked along the street, heading towards the guild.
He had platinum blonde hair with blue eyes and was a lot better looking than most other forest elves his age.
The handsome young elf was none other than Orion himself, and the reason why his hair color had changed was due to the contract skill he had obtained from Mia, {The shape-shifting skill}.
This skill allowed Orion to change his appearance, making it easier for him to blend in with other elves without anyone knowing he was actually the prince.
Currently, Orion was making his way towards a very huge building in the capital city of the kingdom.
The building was none other than the guild.
Orion hoped to register in the guild today so that he would be able to explore dungeons and labyrinths.
The moment he stepped into the building, he saw a huge lobby filled with chairs and desks occupied by adventurers who were busy conversing and laughing in the room.
He walked towards the counter where he could see a row of ten beautiful female receptionists standing behind the counter.
Each of these women was tasked with receiving each adventurer's quest, which they picked from the quest board, and for newbies like Orion, the receptionists were also there to answer any inquiries about the guild.
They all had a beautiful smile on their faces and one would think it was easy for anyone to do the job of a receptionist in the guild. However, that wasn't the case, but these women were determined to maintain a friendly atmosphere within the guild even though it could be challenging at times to calm some annoying or drunk adventurers.
Orion approached one of the female elves who happened to be a nature elf with beautiful green hair, green eyes, and a stunning body as well.
The female elf noticed Orion walking in her direction and she welcomed him with a smile. " Welcome to the Golden Oak Guild, Would you like to register as a member of the guild?"
The female receptionist knew this was Orion's first time in the guild because she hadn't seen him in the guild before. Also, she had noticed him glancing around the room when he had walked in, making it quite obvious that it was his first time in the guild.
It was clear to see that Orion was still really young, but the receptionist could see the flow of mana circulating within his body which was similar to that of a Rank 3 mage or knight, and this meant that Orion was more than ready to raid F-rank dungeons and labyrinths, and to carry out any other F-rank quests of his desire.
"Yes, please." Orion replied and the beautiful elf smiled in return.
"Okay, please give me a minute."
The female receptionist pulled out a form from a drawer before handing it over to Orion with an ink and a quill pen.
"Please fill out the form with the necessary information."
Orion glanced at the form he was holding. The guild didn't mind adventurers registering with their real names or aliases because there were nobles within the guild who would rather live the simple life of an adventurer without wanting to expose who they really were to anyone else.
Orion smiled as he took the quill pen to fill in the necessary details, knowing that this was certainly the beginning of a new chapter in his life.

A/N:- This will be little Orion's last appearance. Thank you so much for reading this far. I really want to release two chapters daily again but my health condition won't permit me. Hopefully, things become better soon.
