Chapter 135: 135. Dinner With Mom, Aunt And Lucille.

It had been a long day and Orion was currently done with his training. He teleported straight back to his room to have a bath and rinse his sweat away.

Dahlia was still preoccupied with her new friends, so she hadn't returned back to the dorm yet.

The moment Orion was done bathing, he stepped out of the bathroom to change his clothes, but while Orion was doing this, Evelyn was in the lounge, sitting in front of a round dinner table.

She had arrived a couple of minutes ago and she walked straight to Orion's bedroom. Elena was also in Orion's bedroom, but right now, she was in the kitchen, making dinner for everyone with Lucille by her side.

While both ladies were still busy, Orion stepped out of his room to find Evelyn smiling at him.

Orion instinctively smiled in return as he approached Evelyn. "What's wrong?" Orion asked with a chuckle, noticing the beautiful smile on his mother's face.

"It's nothing, sweetie. Mama was just pleased to see her precious little baby all grown up. It's amazing to witness the things you've done over the past eighteen years and Mama couldn't be more proud of you."

"Thanks, mom. But it's really thanks to you and Aunt Elena. You two are the best women in my life."

Hearing this, Evelyn smiled and felt touched by his words. "Thanks, dear."

"You're welcome."

"So how was your day? I heard you registered for a sports club and had practice today,)."

"Yes, we did."

"Meet any new friends?"

"Yeah, a prince from the beast kingdom and a noble from the mermaid kingdom."

"You're participating in the activity club tournament, aren't you?"

"Great, that means Mama will be coming over to watch the tournament."

Orion smiled then he heard Lucille and Elena walking into the room with everyone's meal hovering behind them before settling down on the table.

Seeing how Lucille sat down on a chair and was about to eat with them, Orion couldn't help but ask a question he had been wanting to ask since he noticed Lucille in the room.

"I thought you wanted to give yourself a two-day rest period?" Lucille had told Orion that she would give herself two days to sleep once she was done deciding which club she would approve.

"Yes, I did, but there are two reasons why I'm here and not in my bedroom right now."

"What are they?"

"The first one is because your Aunt invited me over for dinner," Just like Elena, Lucille barely had enough sleep for months.

She had been working very hard and she wanted to give herself a break of two days where she would do nothing but sleep all day long.

However, when Elena invited her over for dinner as a thank-you for helping her out yesterday, Lucille agreed to come, and that was why she was here right now.

"All right, so what's the second reason?"

"The second reason is because I'm waiting to..." Lucille had just been about to inform Orion of the second reason when she suddenly noticed her smart bracelet blinking. "Oh, perfect timing,"

Lucille and Elena exchanged glances at each other, and then Elena replied. "We'll handle it ourselves,"

"Phil and his men aren't really much of a threat to us. I'll handle Neil and his attendant while Princess Elena could help take out Phil and his men," Lucille suggested.

"That won't be a problem."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Lucille thanked Elena.

Listening to the two of them deciding on what they planned to do next, Evelyn nodded in understanding with a smile on her face. "Very well, I'll be watching very closely from here," Evelyn preferred to remain in the room to see how Elena and Lucille would handle the incoming threat.

Elena and Lucille weren't bothered by this; they didn't even want her to help them, but they wouldn't stop Evelyn from helping them if she decided to do so.

"All right, let's eat; time isn't on our side," Elena suggested, and everyone agreed.

The clock was ticking and their food was getting cold.

Also, since Elena and Lucille had noticed Neil and his attendant watching the magical barrier for the past two days, they knew Phil would be aiming to launch a surprise attack by midnight so they had to be ready in time to create a surprise of their own.

Everyone grabbed their utensils and they were about to dig into the food. But when Orion grabbed him, he noticed no one was eating, but they were instead staring at him.

"What's wrong?"

"Aren't you going to say anything about the fight?" Elena asked.

"Like what?"

"Like saying you would want to join us or something along that line."

"Nah, I'm not interested in that."

"Then what are you interested in?" It was Evelyn who asked this.

"In taking a look at the journal Miss Lucille told me about yesterday,"

The moment Orion said this, Lucille suddenly recalled something. "Oh, that reminds me, I met Professor Daisy this morning, and she told me Sabrina has started working on the journal again. It seemed she couldn't wait to start working with you, so she instinctively started working on the journal again even though she had abandoned it a few months ago."

"Does this mean she could be deciphering the runes now?"

"Yes."

"Can I see her tonight?"

"I don't see a reason why you shouldn't be able to do that."

"Great, then let's eat as fast as we can."

Orion, Evelyn, Elena and Lucille began to eat and chat a bit, without feeling even a little worried about the incoming threat heading towards the academy.

Meanwhile, in Sabrina's private study, countless number of papers had been burned to ashes.

Soot could also be seen scattered all over the shelves, books, floor, wall, and ceiling. A huge pile of books was currently all over Sabrina who was already unconscious on the floor due to the explosion that occurred within her private study.
