My Elf System

"This is all your fault, Evelyn." Ariel voiced out her thoughts as she kept staring out the window of the magical chariot she was in. "I'm definitely going to blame you if we do not make it to the academy before the tournament begins." Explore more at m,v l'e-NovelBin.net

"Your Majesty, haven't you been blaming Queen Evelyn since we began our journey to the academy?"

"Zip it, Karen. I wasn't talking to you."

"Okay," Karen said quietly as her eyes became as big as a sad little puppy's, then she turned to her left to hug her best friend.

She let out a little whimper at the same time and Elena smiled before patting her back, hoping it would be enough to cheer her up.

For weeks now, Ariel had been a lot meaner to her than usual, and of course, this saddened Karen a lot, but she kept holding it in like the good maid that she was.

She had been waiting patiently to see her friend before telling her everything about it, and Elena listened to everything Karen had to say.

Even though some of the words she said were lies and the others weren't, Elena didn't mind this. Instead, she continued to listen to what her best friend had to say.

She even offered Karen her shoulder to lean on as well, but after listening to Karen complain about the way Ariel had been treating her for the past few weeks, Elena had come to the realization that Karen was definitely waiting patiently for Orion to graduate as soon as he could before she would then request to be Orion's personal maid.

However, only time would tell if the purple-haired maid would get what she wanted.

Meanwhile, Evelyn had a mesmerizing smile on her face as she noticed how impatient Ariel was feeling.

Ariel had wanted them to teleport to the academy for more than an hour now, but Evelyn had told them to sit back, relax, and drink some tea together while catching up on things that had happened in their lives while they were all busy in their respective kingdoms for the past few months.

At first, Ariel willingly sat down and had a little tea session with Evelyn, but after a few minutes, she became impatient and couldn't wait to arrive at the academy and watch the tournament.

Although she liked elven tea a lot, Ariel wasn't interested in it at the moment.

Instead, she was interested in seeing her cute underlings again. So, although she loved elven tea, she loved her cute underlings a lot more than the sweet, aromatic tea.

However, what Ariel didn't know was that she had slowly begun to develop feelings for Orion.

Ariel believed that the feelings she was having right now were the same feelings that a master would have when they missed their apprentice after being away from them for a long time.

But that wasn't what she was feeling and Evelyn knew this, but she wouldn't say anything about it. Instead, she would sit back and watch as Ariel slowly realized that her feelings for Orion weren't that of a Master but of a woman.

Evelyn's lips widened even more and she leaned back comfortably in her chair.

The golden chariot continued to glide seamlessly through the sky and in less than a few minutes, they arrived safely at the academy.

Unlike Ariel, Evelyn wasn't bothered or worried about how slow they were driving to the academy because she had known that the tournament was yet to begin. She had simply wanted all of them to enjoy their time together before arriving at the academy.

There was no way she would intentionally arrive late to the academy when her baby was going to participate in the tournament.

Ariel knew about this as well, and this was why she had been a bit more relaxed when Evelyn kept trying to make them drink tea together.

Within minutes, they had arrived at the spot specifically meant for the Apex Mages.

Ariel, Karen, Elena, and Evelyn noticed that all the other Apex Mages in the mortal realm had arrived, and the first person to notice their arrival and welcome them was none other than the Witch Queen herself.

"Evelyn, I've missed you so much." Isabella spread her arms wide as she walked towards Evelyn to give her a hug.

Evelyn smiled and responded by giving Isabella a hug as well. "I've missed you too, Isabella."

Isabella had ginger-colored hair with hazel-colored eyes, and she was wearing a one-piece dress that revealed how stunning her body was.

Her perfect hourglass body was clearly shaped by her dress which greatly complimented her beautiful face that still looked as though she was in her late twenties.

Although she was more than five centuries old, Isabella still had her beautiful and youthful appearance.

She continued to hug Evelyn a bit longer and the moment she was satisfied with the hug she had given the elf queen, Isabella directed her attention elsewhere.

She leaned towards Elena and gave her a hug as well before congratulating her on her ascension.

Meanwhile, Ariel wasn't in the mood to waste her precious time like the other ladies who were busy hugging each other.

She swiftly passed by Isabella and the others before taking a seat where she wouldn't miss today's activities. However, Isabella suddenly appeared beside Ariel and took a seat next to her.

She leaned closer to Ariel with a genuine smile on her face but Ariel was trying her best not to look in Isabella's direction.

She was trying her best not to say anything or react to the weird way the witch queen was acting beside her, but Isabella continued to behave in an annoying manner even after sitting by her side.

In the end, Ariel couldn't tolerate her anymore, so she asked, "What do you want?"

"You didn't give me a hug when you arrived, why?"

"Because I do not hug creeps like you."

"Oh, so you won't give me a hug because I'm a creep, is that right?"
