The Path of Magic VIII Void Nonsense V

Causing her to then stand up before then finally disappearing surprising Silas causing him to then playfully shake his head.

"Lady Clare is quite a good role model if not a little strict? In any case, I've never doubted her wisdom.. you're lucky she likes you! She's usually incredibly prideful being The Goddess of Dragons in all? No matter the case.. I'm so proud of you!"

Silas proudly confessed causing Noel to then quickly calm down before then adorably hugging Silas surprising him after noticing her teary expression.

"Big brother.. D-Do you think Aurel would really marry me? I-I know it might sound strange bu-"

Noel worriedly confessed before then quickly being cut off causing Silas to then playfully shake his head.

"It's not strange at all! You may be his 'aunt' in name and blood but Royal Bloodlines are in fact very flexible! Not to mention he doesn't discriminate against you being older.. I believe Hanah's case would prove that much!"

"An-And don't ask me who that is! He's been in so many antics as of late so it'll be quite difficult to explain them all.. I'm so proud of 'little' Aurel!"

Silas proudly comforted surprising Noel, causing her to slowly calm down before adorably giggling, having thought it through before, and happily nodding.

"Bi-Big brother always makes me feel better! I love you so much! You-Your the best big brother"

Noel happily praised surprising Silas causing him to then proudly smile.

Before then playfully kissing Noel's forehead causing her to adorably giggle all the while causing Silas's heart to then adorably melt.

'So precious! However I feel for our precious little Aurel now, Clare's speech lit a fire in my precious little sister! She'll no doubt become Aurel's most in important Anchor with time!"

"Let's hope she isn't so strict with him when the time comes to teach him. No matter! That's for future Silas to watch!'

Silas happily thought before then adorably hugging Noel even tighter.

All the while three days had soon passed.. during this time Bradley was finishing up his 'pilgrimage' and was informed by Theodore who had kept in contact with Kethryllia that Princess Suna.

And his 'daughter' Scarlet would be arriving soon along with informing Bradley of the young prince's temporary coma and fast relationship with Octavia.

And after hearing about both Rory's and Stella's first introduction being 'somewhat' pleasant yet competitive.. Bradley couldn't help but gently sigh with relief having hoped for more or less the same would happen again with Scarlet.

All the while.. the continent was soon also informed of the celestial scandal after discovering the reason behind Bradley's sudden pilgrimage through none other than their mothers.

Followed up and supported by none other than both Temples of Inari and Fluff.. surprising everyone at how much their favorite 'Dreamy' Prince.

And now Celestial 'King' had done on his many 'adventures'.

All the while this was happening the shy Molly had been having a sleepover with Celie and the others as Theodore was away with Bradley resulting in Molly already being introduced to the others days earlier.

However, she hadn't spoken a word and adorably hid from any new faces the entire time causing Celie to then investigate herself before then eventually simply asking Theodore while they were alone surprising her.

Causing Celie's heart to then drop before then making it her mission to coddle Molly! While the others have gotten used to her behavior and wanted to help too after noticing Celie's efforts causing even Aldra, and Amber.

And even Annie to do the same and surprisingly enough Molly had in fact gotten attached to the playful Annie of all people surprising everyone.

All the while 'all' of this was happening.. Hanah had already become furious at the fact that both her plans and cookies had gone to waste since the young prince had yet to return causing her to then angrily pout most of these three days.

Causing both Ruby and Luna to then helplessly watch, all the while.. back with the young prince who had finally healed up he had been entirely focused on his connection to the essence and Void Sequencing.

Causing Tillie to surprisingly feel somewhat proud yet still annoyed after remembering the young prince had now owed her a total of eleven favors as compared to his previous two.

Since he had decided to enlist her help to train him two days earlier resulting in the young prince finally breaking through and then some until finally, he was now a Mid-Level Mage with an incredible comprehension speed.

Having not slept during these three days in Silas's Dreamworld resulting in him focusing mostly on Void Sequencing however despite being considered a Mid-Level Mage he was more like a High-Level Mage Apprentice.

Due to him only having 'some' of the knowledge of spells he had read about in the library and Void Sequencing rather than Elemental Sequencing which would have helped far more with said knowledge having never touched.

Or heard of a Void Spell causing the young prince to be both ahead and far behind the average mage however with his comprehension speed improved it'll only be a short while until he's able to catch up and perhaps even breakthrough.

And become a High-Level Mage causing the young prince's start on his magic path to somewhat be amazing yet.. bizarre seeing as Tillie had indeed given the young prince a greater advantage over other Mages of the same rank.

However.. with such advantages came drawbacks now having to learn more of the basics of what many would've thought were two entirely different magic paths meaning double the magic research and comprehension needed.

Thankfully with the help of increasing his comprehension speed through Void Sequencing, he'd only now be 'slightly' more overburdened than normal 'dedicated' Mages, causing the young prince to then adorably rub his eyes.

Causing most of the runes to then slowly disappear all the while some still drifted causing the young prince to then adorably flip over before then facing the sleepy Tillie causing her to then curiously glance to the young.

Before then surprisingly hugging him even tighter.

"You should be 'fully' healed by now.. however this will the last time we meet for quite a while, I'm genuinely relieved that I'm still able to take one but.. I must continue with my original plans and bring about the next Dark Age so I can't afford to-"

Tillie helplessly explained before then being cut off causing the young prince to then adorably become teary.

"Till-Tillie st-still need breaks! S-So I-If you ever need some-someone no matter w-what I'll stay with you ev-even if-"

The young prince tearily reassured.

Before then being cut off himself causing Tillie to then playfully flick the young prince's head before then quickly frowning.

"Don't say another word 'Auri'.. you might regret it! I'll return one of these days and collect those.. 'favors' so naturally 'if' I need to take a 'break' at the time I'll take one! And since you've offered.."

"I'd also expect to keep you for three days and three nights while on each these 'breaks'.. no matter what 'may' have transpired in the future even if you 'decided' to hate m-"

Tillie warned before then adorably being cut off by the young prince excitedly hugging her even tighter surprising her before then being cut off once again.

"Prom-Promise? Prom-Promise promise?!"

The young prince excitedly asked causing Tillie to then freeze after noticing the young prince's eyes sparkle.

All the while causing her to then frown once more before then quickly pinching both of the young prince's cheeks.

"Yes.. how would you ever repay my favors if we don't? Right.. we only have several hours 'left' together and since you've broken through after asking for my guidance through favors.."

Tillie curiously asked before then suddenly conjuring up a strangely Golden Void Necklace with a strange purple void crystal with what looked to be strange black runes floating inside of it.

Before then curiously looking to the young prince.

"I 'used' to wear this necklace all the time when I was 'much'.. much younger.. but it no longer matches anything in my 'new' wardrobe so it's practically just gathering 'dust', not really since the Void is still the Void but a funny thought no less?"

Tillie asked before then carefully placing the necklace around the young prince's neck and under his pajamas surprising him causing him to then adorably blush.

All the while causing Tillie to then quickly flick his forehead two more times causing the young prince to then adorably ignore pain.

Having wanted to stay with Tillie as long as he could causing him to then quickly hug Tillie even tighter causing her to then lazily shake her head.

Before then returning to the warm cuddling session, after what felt like 'several' hours had passed.. It was finally time for the young prince to wake up causing him to then adorably pout causing Tillie to then lazily sigh.

"I'll be keeping tabs on you.. and don't lose that necklace!"

Tillie warned before then gently kissing the young prince's neck.

Causing him to then adorably blush before then finally waking up, after waking up the young prince adorably kept his eyes close before then adorably becoming teary causing the young prince to then adorably remember something else.

Before then quickly rubbing his eyes causing him to then finally notice Stella, and Rory on sleeping on his lap causing Octavia to then gently blow into his ear surprising him causing him to then adorably blush.

Before then being cut off causing both Stella and Rory to then quickly wake up as well before then excitedly pouncing on the young prince.

"W-We missed you so much!"

Rory tearily confessed causing Stella to then both quickly and tearily nod all the while causing the young prince to then adorably become teary before then finally hugging all three.

After the hugs had finished all three had soon calmed down causing Octavia to then notice something before then playfully smiling causing her to then adorably pass him one of the magic books Kethryllia had left for him surprising him.

"As a 'Highmage' I can notice these sort of things you know! You should've already made a breakthrough and become a full-fledged Mage! Now people can call you Mage Aurel!"

"Rory, you should have noticed too with you 'still' being a mere 'Grand' Mage in all?"

Octavia teasingly asked causing Rory to then immediately pout causing Stella to then adorably pout as well having not even had a chance to visit the library.

Causing the young prince after noticing then to then adorably whisper into both Octavia's and Rory's ears surprising both causing both to then adorably look to Stella surprising Stella as well.

Causing her to then adorably look back with an adorably blushing expression causing Octavia to then quickly nod.

"Let's celebrate little brother's recovery and head to that Library! We might as well help our favorite little sister learn magic while we're at it you know!"

Octavia excitedly explained surprising Stella.

Causing Rory to then quickly nod with approval all the while causing Stella to then happily smile before then excitedly hugging all three.

After the hugs had ended everyone had soon gotten dressed except for the young prince who had decided to adorably put his now clean clothes and freshly polished insignias into his ring.

Before then whispering into Rory's ear so he could go have a bath first having not done so in three days despite already being somewhat clean through spells while he slept.

Causing him to then quickly warm miss baths all the while causing Rory to then quickly nod having also thought that he would after such a long time.

Before then telling the others causing all four to then adorably sneak to the baths before then surprisingly being greeted by Annie, Mili, Mai, and Molly at the entrance surprising all four while the rest were with Iris and the others.
