Chapter 144: Ask Her Hand in Marriage?
'Thanks, Lumi. But now, it's time to find Nyss.'
He aimlessly walked back towards the main building. Oftentimes, he had seen her going towards the cafeteria after classes, so he was hoping to find her there as the café was opposite the training ground on the other side of the academy.
It wasn't long before he reached the cafeteria—a place filled with the chaos of students chatting and going on their way on the stone-paved pathways.
He exhaled a long sigh and began walking around, looking for her here and there. He also spotted the elf from whom he bought the porridge before multiple times.
Deciding to try his luck, he headed towards her shop, "Excuse me, 10 bowls of porridge."
"Ah, it's been a while since you came. I thought you didn't like my porridge." The elven woman turned around and charmingly smiled.
Orion chuckled, "How can that be? It's one of the most delicious porridges I have eaten. Can you please pack 10 bowls of it?"
"Looks like you really liked it, huh. Sure, give me a minute." She said before heading back to prepare the porridge.
He looked around before calmly asking, "Have you seen Nyss Blackwell around? I want to have a chat with her about some work, but can't find her for some reason."
"Oh? You're asking about the Death Flower?" She let out a soft chuckle. "She's usually at the café three shops down from here."
Orion's eyes lit up as he nodded his head, "Thanks for answering, but what's the deal with Death Flower? She isn't that bad."
The elven woman couldn't help but lightly laugh, "Who knows? All I've heard are rumors that misfortune befalls those who get close to her. You can verify its truth and tell me."
