Orion stood outside the mansion, looking at his Grandparents, Little Lyra, and Seraph standing there to see him off.
He couldn't help but curl his lips, "Why are you guys coming to see me off as if I'm going to my death. It's just an academy test."
Bang!
Eldric slapped the back of his head, "Don't say unlucky things at this time brat. You will worry your Grandma to death."
Orion rubbed the back of his head sheepishly and kneeled down in front of Lyra. "Be good and listen to your elders okay?"
She looked at him with pitiful eyes, "Can't I go with you? You didn't even make food for us that you promised."
He couldn't help but laugh lightly, "Well I have been quite busy during this time. The next time I return, I promise to feed you daily okay? Now be good and stay put."
