Chapter 95: 95. Girlfriend.
'Yes.' Orion replied and his body began to glow as a massive influx of information flooded his mind.
Now, Orion knew what needed to be done with the sword and horn for his body to be able to absorb miasma.
However, he also realized that he didn't have to do it right now because of where he had to be. So he decided to keep the magical artifacts in his inventory for now.
When the time was right, he would begin to take the steps needed to make his body become adapted to miasma.
For now, there was an important place he had to be, and if he continued to remain here, his girlfriend would definitely become upset with him.
'Nah, I'm certain she's already upset with me.'
'She'll definitely ask about where I've been and why I couldn't wake her up before leaving.'
'I could have woken her up this morning, but I didn't because she looked so cute while sleeping.'
'Oh, well. I guess I have no other choice but to rain kisses on her beautiful lips.'
'Hopefully, she won't be too upset with me anymore.' Orion's lips widened into a smile as he couldn't wait to rain kisses on Mia's lips when he finally saw her.
With his mind made up on his next course of action, Orion teleported away from where he had killed the goblin king and trolls.
Then, he appeared in one of the teleportation arrays in the village.
This particular teleportation array led straight to the Capital city, and once Orion arrived there, he would use his teleportation skill to instantly teleport to the castle.
Over the years, Orion's teleportation skill had improved, but it hadn't improved to the point that he could teleport himself to anywhere in the kingdom.
He still had a long way to go before he would be able to do this.
Unlike him, Evelyn could teleport herself anywhere she wanted in the mortal realm.
Such was the difference between an Apex Mage and an transcendent mage, which is what Orion currently was.
Orion knew the path to becoming an Apex Mage wouldn't be easy, but he was prepared to put in the required work to become an Apex Mage like his mother.
Speaking of his beautiful mother, Orion's lips stretched into a smile when he recalled how excited his mother was when the both of them worked on a few runes together to improve the kingdom.
He knew his mother had always hoped to acquire the skills of a rune monarch, but he never expected her to be so excited about working with him.
She had practically been like a little girl who had been offered the best birthday present she could ever wish for.
Evelyn kept giggling, smiling, and humming different songs to herself as the two of them continued to work on a couple of runes together.
Even Orion was surprised to see a new side of his beautiful mother.
He had never seen his mother as happy as that before, but he knew that one of the main reasons why Evelyn felt so happy and cheerful was because she was working alongside him.
Of course, Mia also worked with them, and the three of them played a huge role in improving the kingdom, with Elena occasionally helping them while attending to her royal duties.
Some of the things they worked on were runes that helped improve the kingdom's security and agriculture.
In terms of the kingdom's security, there had been cases of beast tides occurring from outside the kingdom's borders, with large beasts rampaging in the kingdom for one reason or the other.
The beasts' stampede destroyed farms, houses, and infrastructures.
Surprisingly, it wasn't something new and it usually occurred on a yearly basis, but to prevent this, a unique rune barrier was developed around the kingdom's border.
The rune barrier was developed by Orion, Mia, and Evelyn and it was developed in a way that it would automatically create an illusion once it sensed the presence of many beasts and monsters of certain ranks.
The illusion created by the rune barrier helped to ward off dangerous beasts, thereby reducing the number of beast tides occurring per year.
Of course, this illusion wasn't strong enough to fool high-ranking beasts like wyverns, griffins, and the like, but it helped to reduce the number of beast tides in the kingdom.
Previously, there had been about five to six beast tides a year, but ever since the rune barrier was constructed, the beast tides reduced from six to zero over the years.
In terms of agriculture, Orion, Evelyn, and Mia discovered rune combinations that helped enhance crop growth, increase yields, and improve soil quality, allowing the kingdom to have a stable food supply like never before.
At first, the farmers were shocked when they noticed the size of the harvested fruits, but aside from being shocked, they were also filled with joy after noticing how sweet and tasty the fruits and vegetables had become.
It didn't take long for everyone within the kingdom to swiftly accept the new changes that had occurred in the kingdom in terms of agriculture and it was all thanks to the royal family.
Now, the elf kingdom was the only Kingdom in the mortal realm whose fruits and vegetables were three times bigger and sweeter than the others.
There was no doubt about it, the royal family of the elf kingdom was simply the best monarchy in the entire mortal realm.
Aside from these two things that they had improved within the kingdom, Orion, Mia, Elena, and Evelyn also developed a rune-powered irrigation system that helped provide water to both El'vendom and El'rial.
This newly developed irrigation system also helped to support the kingdom's agriculture, allowing everyone in the kingdom to love and respect their future king.
With a pleased smile on his face, Orion stepped into the teleportation array and arrived at the capital city.
The moment he arrived there, he swiftly activated his teleportation skill to arrive directly in front of the castle.
He didn't want anyone in the teleportation array to see him because, in a way, he had become a celebrity in his own kingdom. So, he swiftly made his way to the castle because he didn't want his ever-dynamic fans to come running towards him the moment they spotted him.
