My Elf System - Chapter 17

Chapter 17: 17. Mama’s Spirit Guardians [2].
Evelyn nodded her head and all three spirits exclaimed with joy. “Yay!!!”

They circled Orion, tickling and playing with him, until he began to giggle and laugh.

Orion could see how excited and lively all three sylphs were and it made him relaxed and happy to be around them.

A few minutes later, Evelyn was still smiling and chuckling at the way all three sylphs were playing with her little baby while Orion was giggling as well.

Soon, they stopped tickling him and looked closer at him, they were observing something in him as they had noticed the amount of magical energy flowing around him.

“Are you guys seeing this?” One of the sylphs asked the other two.

“Yes, we are, but do you think he might be the one?”

“Yep, without a doubt, he’s definitely the one.”

“Wow, to think we’ll be the first ones to see ‘HIM’,” The first sylph said.

“Indeed, it’s truly an honor.”

“An honor, indeed.”

“What are you girls talking about?” Evelyn asked with a curious look on her face.

The three sylphs giggled to themselves while circling around Evelyn and they replied in unison. “Hehe…. it’s a secret.”

“Well, you will soon find out, and by then it won’t be a secret anymore.”

“So you have nothing to worry about.”

“Indeed, you have nothing to worry about.”

“Everyone will surely celebrate in the spirit realm once they hear about this.”

“They’ll be happy as well.”

“I can’t wait to tell everyone back home.”

“What are we waiting for? Let’s go back home.”

“Indeed.”

“Agreed.”

“Goodbye, your Highness,” All three sylphs waved goodbye to Evelyn and Orion before vanishing from their sights and returning to the spirit realm.

“Bye,” Orion also waved goodbye to them as they all vanished before him.

Evelyn smiled when she saw the smile on his face.

“So, what do you think about my spirit guardians?” She asked. “Are you excited to have your own spirit guardian now?”

“Yes, Mama, I can’t wait to have mine as well,” Orion replied as his eyes sparkled with excitement.

Evelyn smiled and giggled at his cute reaction but she was glad to see that she was able to bring a smile to his face again.

She didn’t like the way her baby had frowned earlier, but she was happy now that she could give Orion something to look forward to tomorrow.

Evelyn smiled and held Orion’s hand in hers before taking him to the bathroom to have a bath with him.

While they walked, she asked. “Did you notice how all three sylphs looked alike?”

“Yes, I did.”

“Well, that’s because they are sisters, and they all have a strong affinity for wind magic.”

“Does this mean that Mama has a strong affinity for wind magic too?”

“Yes, baby, and this means that your spirit guardian will have a strong affinity with the elements you end up having a strong affinity with as well.”

“Okay mama,” Orion replied with a smile on his face as he happily skipped into his mother’s bathroom.

While they were bathing together, a series of notifications flooded into his screen, and Orion read every single one of them.

Right after Orion was done reading his status and bathing with his mother, they both went to the kitchen to get themselves something to eat.

Since the maids and butlers would be resuming work tomorrow, things wouldn’t be as quiet as they had been in the castle so far, for the next few weeks.

Elena returned home on time to have dinner with them and everyone ate together.

The moment they were done eating, Evelyn taught Orion everything he needed to know about tomorrow to prepare him for when he would summon a spirit of his own and form a mana core as well.

A few hours later, Evelyn tucked Orion into bed and the three of them slept together in Evelyn’s bedroom.

However, to Orion’s surprise, he woke up the next morning and noticed some changes in his body.
