Village Head's Debauchery

He walked into the mansion, which remained undamaged, unlike the surrounding buildings, thanks to the warriors' protection.

Evadne shook her head in defeat as she cast one last look at Isadora and the others before following him inside.

Witnessing everything that had just occurred, Fifi wondered if she could have ignored this situation in the first place. Looking at the young woman's silent, trembling figure before her, Fifi shook her head in response.

"If you are looking for the best way to handle this issue, then the best thing you can do now is wait until Warrior Orion returns and report your issues properly to him. Until then, you should respect the rules and keep your rivalry against each other to yourself," Fifi responded.

"In the meantime, this matter will also be reported to the Village Chief so that he can prepare to handle the issue that took place and the one responsible for it when Warrior Orion returns," she added.

Isadora nodded her head in understanding, her shoulders dropping low in defeat. Though worried about the punishment Leif and the others might receive, her eyes shone brightly with fierce determination. She realised that only Warrior Orion could help them out of the situation.

The next time she encountered him, she swore upon her god that she would convince him and forge a better relationship with him, even if it meant using some of her personal treasures that she had managed to bring to this place safely.

"Okay, thank you, Warrior..." Isadora began, attempting to thank the woman before her before realising she didn't know her name.

Fifi understood. "You can call me Warrior Fifi," she responded.

"Thank you for stopping us from taking actions we might regret, Warrior Fifi. If we have the chance to again, I hope we can talk more and help me understand more about the Orion's Cities," Isadora responded, bowing slightly towards Fifi.

Since things had already become the way they were now, she could only do her best to try and forge a good rapport with the strongest individuals in this territory, and from the strength that the woman before her had shown, it wasn't difficult to tell that she was one of them.

Isadora nodded respectfully towards the warriors, who still had their eyes fixed on their figures as they turned around and left the area.

…....…

Patriarch Rylan's residence

Knock!!

The door pulled open within seconds, revealing Patriarch Rylan. He wore a firm and serious expression as he looked at Isadora, Lyndon, and Leona.

"I want you all to explain everything that had transpired to me immediately."

…....…

Garden

Pixie Kingdom

"So what do you think about it? Do you like it?" Prince Alden asked, his eyes fixed on the crimson-golden mixed-coloured Pixie wings behind Orion's back.

Orion nodded in response. "It's good, but I still don't understand why we need such a thing," he responded, staring at Prince Alden with a confused expression.

Orion was amazed when he saw the artificial wings specially created for Pixies who had lost their wings, along with several other removable ones like those he wore for others who were content with their natural wings.

Even though it was exhilarating to finally fly without Ursa's gift , and despite Aerialia saying that he wasn't ready for such a technique capable of it yet, he still couldn't grasp why he needed to wear such a thing.

Witnessing Orion's confused expression, Prince Alden sighed deeply and explained, "Considering that everyone in the Kingdom was present earlier today, they are all aware that you are currently in the Kingdom. Knowing your popularity, you will surely attract attention from your admirers and those who don't like you.''

''So, isn't it best to hide your identity and avoid anything hindering you from properly completing your first task?" Prince Alden's plan was carefully thought out, understanding that if Orion wanted to complete his task effectively, this was the best method they could use.

Also, it would make it difficult for his first brother to trace them upon his return, ensuring they would be undisturbed during the task and giving them the time needed to forge a stronger relationship with Orion.

Prince Alden inwardly smiled as he contemplated his plan. He saw nothing wrong with it except for some minor unexpected occurrences he planned to address.

Orion nodded. He understood that Prince Alden's plan was reasonable, especially since he planned to finish as soon as possible.

"I will also hide my identity since people might become suspicious seeing you and me together. Wait here; I'll be back soon," Prince Alden responded before entering the fitting room.

He removed his robe, revealing a milky shirt and brown trousers underneath. He tied back his waist-length blonde hair into a ponytail and donned a cap made from leaves, going the extra mile to conceal his identity. After all, his future and reputation depended on the success of this day.

Once he finished, he handed the robe to the shopkeeper, instructing him to send it to the Canopy Palace before returning to Orion.

He nodded inwardly in approval as he observed Orion, dressed in his blue bell breeze attire, adorned with sparkling artificial, removable Pixie wings and a leaf head cap, ensuring his identity remained concealed.

"Alright, since we're all set, let's head over to the Gardener's Guild and collect our task," Prince Alden said, taking the lead as they exited the shop and soared toward the Gardener's Guild.

…....…..

Twenty minutes later

Orion swiftly pierced the root of a bizarre plant, resembling a cactus and a violet mushroom hybrid, and yanked it out just in time to evade its rapidly moving roots. He utilised his Celestial energy to control the artificial Pixie wings on his back by twirling in the air to dodge its attack.

He then dived downwards and plunged his wooden spear through the mushroom tip, spinning it around to obliterate the bizarre plant.

"That's Blightroot weed, a dangerous nuisance that releases toxic spores, causing nearby plants to wilt and wither, often poisoning them with a toxin that spreads easily," Prince Alden explained, impressed by Orion's swift movement.
