The hug with Daphne was short but it felt like he poured all his heart into that. He really finds himself refreshed just by her being there for him. The same effect happens with Rose.
He knew that in reality, those girls couldn't help him at all in terms of what was about to happen in the future but in another way they helped him.
Of course, after the hug, Daphne was stunned to the point that neither of them talked to each other at all.
Daphne actually wanted a kiss instead of a hug but she was happy nonetheless. And if only she knew that Orion enjoy hugs more than kisses then maybe she would be disappointed.
Orion for the time being just ignored Merlin who was faking that he wasn't looking in their direction.
Orion after some time just said this much.
"You know what, I believe that it's time to start both your and Rose's training in magic.
And I mean real training." Orion said with a smile on his face. He really was confused at this time. He felt attraction towards both Rose and Daphne. So he didn't want to do anything too much with either of the girls as long as he didn't choose between one of the girls.
But hearing this from Orion, Daphne felt a sudden excitement in her heart. For both Orion's unusual affectionate touch and what he just said.
Finally both she and Rose will get the magical training they were waiting for. And more than that, they wanted to quit their current physical training at all costs.
Little did they know that Orion never planned to stop their physical training at all. Magical training will be there but only after their physical training is done.
"Alright, I believe its too late already now. Time to get going," Orion said ask as he stood up on top of the roof.
He didn't just say this out of the blue either, he felt there was something wrong up there. He could feel dark magic up in the sky.
Most likely Dementors and he didn't want to be out here especially Daphne out here.
So he made sure that he escorted her until he could see the Gryffindor's dorm.

After he saw Daphne going, it was finally time to talk with Merlin. But this time it wasn't the story time but more like making a plan.
"So now that we know much about what's going on, tell me what the plan is," Orion asked with a serious tone. Gone was the usual happy easy-going attitude.
Merlin was taken aback himself after seeing how Orion had changed a little bit. But he still didn't point it out.
[So you planned to go against death] He just asked, before making any plan or talking about it. Merlin has to first understand what Orion was thinking.
"Hmm of course, If not me then who?
Usually, I wouldn't say that but I really want another reincarnator with some cheat to take this role but unfortunately, that ain't the case." Orion just sighs.
[Hmm a perfect example of with power comes great responsibilities] Merlin added with a shrug.
"Huh hmm, saving the world and being a hero. Honestly not my thing but what choice do I have?
Now enough wasting time, let's focus on the upcoming world calamity first.
Do you have any plan on how we can stop death from getting her hands on rebirth of magic" Orion said with a serious tone, something which Merlin wasn't expecting. But appreciated it nonetheless.
[You are acting different, before we talk may I ask what brought this change ] Merlin smiled and asked. He was finally seeing Orion taking things seriously.
Not like he wasn't serious before but that's only when it comes to money or his own training. In almost everything else he had a nonchalant attitude and this is not just after the 3-year training, he was like this even before that.
Orion on the other hand just snorted.
"What you expect, you think that you will say something like someone is trying to destroy the world and can still follow through with my GOJO phase.
Anyways, playtime has to be kept aside until we deal with this mistress of death first. later I will just play Saitama and punch people around. " Orion said with a sneer, like accusing Merlin that he didn't tell something this serious to him beforehand.
And although he didn't say it outright, Merlin himself knew that the boy was thinking that. But thanks to all that the boy is finally serious.
[Well if you are in the business mode then I will hold nothing back.
There are honestly only two ways to handle the upcoming problem. One is that you go ahead and fight Death one on one]
"Yeah, tell me what level of a witch she is, if she is considered one at this point"
[9] Merlin didn't hesitate and said.
"Yeah, so how about you stop suggesting me suicide route and tell me something which actually works," Orion just rolled his eyes.
[Okay okay I know you are agitated but at least listen to the ways alright? Even if you don't use them, they might come in handy later on.]
"Sigh, fine tell," Orion calms his nerves and agitated mood and with still annoyance in his tone replies.
"As I said there are two ways.
One is to fight her, which will need you to master all three major laws. As I said I am sure that you yourself must have come to this outcome after having time to think about it. You can't directly fight with her in terms of power, that is almost impossible.
But if you remember what I said back then might see why I wanted you to learn major laws in the first place.
Upon mastering three major laws, one has enough authority to even alter reality to some degree. And that is when you can close the gap with her.
But that too will need time. Not to mention we are unsure that it's even possible. Even I was only able to semi-master all of them and had to pay a heavy price for that.]
"One minute, you never talk about any price before ?" Orion interjected but Merlin just waved his hands to indicate not to disturb him.
[Don't worry you won't have to pay any price like that, you don't need to know what happens but just know this much semi-mastering different major laws has consequences. But in your case, you are mastering them entirely so don't worry.
I did it because I didn't had any other choice. I after all knew that there was no choice for me to master all of them. Nor I had to time or the potential to achieve it] Merlin added with a little dejected tone of his own. And hearing this Orion got curious about what was the price was but he didn't spoke. Right now that wasn't important.
Maybe with your attitude and Integration technique, you would have reached to her level in a few hundred years. I kid you not when I say that you have the biggest potential out of all the magicals I have seen so far Orion but you are lacking time. I only said this way so that you know what's possible when you master all the Laws to their highest form.] .
"I see... so what is the actual way which we will be working on ?" Orion just took a few seconds to process the information and immediately asked.
[Well... that is a long process but I believe we might be able to do that...I suppose...
