Evelyn smiled and kissed Orion on his cheeks. "I understand a lot of things are not making sense to you right now, sweetie. But trust Mama, and I promise to explain everything to you after breakfast."
"How does that sound?" She asked.
"Okay, mama."
"That's my boy," Evelyn kissed his cheeks again and rubbed her nose against his, causing Orion to giggle.
She lovingly placed her hands on his face and said while looking into his eyes. "Alright, then. Let's go have our bath first and then we'll have breakfast, okay sweetie?"
"Okay, mama," Orion replied cutely and Evelyn's heart skipped a bit. She was so proud of how cute her son looked.
There was no doubt about it, her baby was the cutest elf ever!!!
"Aw, my baby is so cute," Evelyn hugged Orion gently and began to rub her cheeks against his, causing Orion to giggle at his mother's affectionate display of love.
"Promise Mama you will never stop loving her."
"I promise, mama."
"Thanks, sweetie, now let's get going so that Mama can teach you everything you need to know," Evelyn guided Orion as he stood up from the bed.
Orion tripped a bit when he tried walking on his own, but with the help of his mother, he was able to get used to his new body very quickly.
He noticed a standing mirror and Orion stood in front of it to check himself out.
He noticed his pointed ears and his short blonde hair as well.
Just by looking at his appearance, Orion noticed he looked like a two-year-old human.
This was also the appearance of a normal forest elf, but Orion was slightly taller than the average two-year-old forest elf.
Right after he was done checking out his body, Orion followed his mother into the bathroom and when he came out, his gaze fell on his aunt, stepping into Evelyn's bedroom.
"Aunt Elena!!" Orion shouted excitedly and ran to his aunt to hug her.
"Orion," Elena lifted Orion from the ground and kissed his cheeks.
"You're so big now. Just yesterday, you could barely even call my name, but now you're saying it a lot easier," she said, rubbing her nose against his just like his mum.
"Hehe.... Mama says she'll tell me everything about why I'm growing so big."
"Really?"
"Yes," He nodded his head in response. "Right after we're done with breakfast."
"Is that so? Well, lucky you, because breakfast is ready and set in the dining room, would you like to eat now?"
"Yes," Orion replied excitedly with a cute expression and Elena couldn't get enough of how adorable her cute little nephew looked.
"Aw, my nephew is just the cutest nephew ever. I don't ever want to let you go, stay with Auntie forever, and leave your bad mama alone," Elena teasingly whispered the last part into Orion's ear before tickling his ear by blowing air into it.
However, Evelyn's sharp ears heard Elena's words, even though Elena tried really hard to whisper them.
"Ara, Ara, don't tell me, you're trying to steal my baby from me?" A murderous aura suddenly erupted behind Elena and she flinched in fear, knowing her sister was aiming her murderous aura at her.
"Save me, Orion," She instantly hid behind Orion, hoping Evelyn wouldn't attack her because of her cute little baby.
Orion giggled because he knew his mother and aunt were trying their best to make him happy in his new home. Orion turned around to face his mother with his hands spread wide to protect his beloved aunt behind him.
"It's okay, Auntie, I will protect you."
Elena felt touched by Orion's words and she hid behind him even more. "My knight in shining armor," Elena complimented him with a huge smile on her face while poking her tongue towards Evelyn.
Seeing how her precious little baby was protecting her sister, Evelyn got a little jealous but she suppressed her feelings because her little boy looked so adorable while protecting his aunt.
Evelyn dispersed her threatening aura and replaced her fearsome demeanor with a graceful smile while she opened her arms wide to welcome Orion into her embrace. "Fine, I'll forgive your aunt, now baby, come here and hug Mama."
Orion smiled and ran to Evelyn to hug her.
Elena smiled watching the two of them together. She noticed Evelyn, spreading one of her arms to welcome Elena into her embrace as well and Elena joined them so that the three of them could hug.
A few minutes later, Elena suggested they all go to the dining room to have breakfast and Evelyn nodded her head in agreement.
While walking out of the queen's bedroom, Evelyn asked. "So, what's the update with the elders?" Her voice wasn't the same playful voice she'd had while playing with Orion and Elena a few minutes ago.
Her demeanor now looked more graceful as a queen because their discussion was related to Orion's future.
Nothing mattered more to Evelyn than to ensure a beautiful future for her handsome little elf baby.
"I've informed them of your desire to have Orion awaken his mana core tomorrow," Elena replied.
"So, how did they react?"
"They would like to have an audience with you today."
Evelyn nodded in understanding before asking. "And what about Sebastian, have you informed him of what we intend to do the day after tomorrow."
Sebastian was the head butler in the castle. But since he, the junior butlers, and the maids were currently on leave, Elena had to relieve him of his leave to inform him about what the queen intended to do.
"Sebastian was ecstatic to hear about what you intend to do the day after tomorrow, he said he informed three maids about the preparations but somehow all the maids and butlers began requesting to be relieved from their leave."
"What? The maids want to resume work again?"
Elena giggled with a nod, noticing the surprised look on Evelyn's face. "Yes, they are all eager to see your cute little baby as well. They should be here tomorrow morning before you and Orion leave the castle."
Hearing this, Evelyn smiled and continued to walk to the dining room with Orion in her arms to have their breakfast.
Meanwhile, Orion was currently preoccupied with reading the details of his newly developed system, so he was unaware of the things his mother and his aunt were talking about.
