First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448: Passing Time

After arriving outside his room, Orion paused momentarily and let out a tired sigh, his hand reaching out to gently turn the handle.

With a soft click, the door slowly swung open, revealing the interior of his simple room, now slightly dark due to evening’s shadow.

Inside, Orion’s gaze immediately went towards the small figure sitting atop his study table, legs gently swinging as she curiously studied the scattered parchments that were left behind from his earlier research.

Hearing the faint creaking of the door opening, Lyra’s head swiftly turned around, eyes lighting up instantly with joy.

"Papa!" she exclaimed happily, quickly leaping from the chair, her tiny feet softly padding against the plush carpet as she rushed toward Orion.

Reaching him, she tightly wrapped her small arms around his leg, her face lifted upwards with a radiant smile that instantly warmed Orion’s previously heavy heart.

Orion felt his earlier tension and heaviness fade away in an instant, gently patting her head with affection. "Yes, Little Lyra, I’m back," he softly said, feeling his mood becoming lighter.

She tilted her head, smiling brighter as she happily pulled him into the room towards the study table to ask questions about what those are.

Orion chuckled, closing the door behind him with a gentle click and followed after to see what questions she had.

The next two days passed peacefully, the entire mansion radiating with warmth and happiness at Orion’s return.

Seraph had started to come out of her room more often to talk with Orion or just wander the mansion to become more familiar with the others. At first she was very nervous but seeing the warm atmosphere of others she slowly let her guard down.

And on the other hand Lyra, with her sweet and curious nature, quickly won over the hearts of everyone residing within the mansion, from Edgar and lazy Lucan to both grandparents as well as the maids in the mansion.

Indeed, Lyra was spoiled even more excessively than Orion himself. Even Orion couldn’t help but be speechless when he saw how much both Selene and Eldric were spoiling Little Lyra.

And even Edgar was subtly handing her small sweets from time to time behind Orion’s back while Lucan had no such inhibition as he brought an entire shop of sweets and set it up at a corner of the Estate for Little Lyra to eat whatever she wanted.

Orion couldn’t help but feel his lips violently twitching, he really felt like slapping Lucan and when he went to him to say her teeth would go bad, the only thing Lucan said with a serious expression which made him speechless was: "She is an Exalted Grade being. Let’s not talk about these sweets, she can eat the entire capital without her teeth going bad."

In these two days, Orion had not been idle either. He had taken the time to visit Thunderpeak Royal Academy, where he inquired about the upcoming test to see how much time is left and when they needed to set off, while also asking where they would need to go.

He then went to the academy’s library and meticulously researched the place he would be heading to for the test and thoroughly read various texts regarding the demons, deepening his understanding and preparing himself for any unforeseen situations.

Meanwhile, at the mansion, Little Lyra found Rina and convinced her to change Orion’s boring room to something interesting and eagerly spent the last two days redecorating his room, turning the whole room upside down.

They didn’t allow Orion anywhere near the room during this process, forcing him to temporarily sleep in another room within the mansion.
