My Elf System-Chapter 220 - . Cooking Disaster.

Within seconds, Mia had changed her clothes, now she was wearing only an apron that was tied snugly around her slim waist.

The strings of her apron crossed over her bare back, so everyone could see her clear beautiful skin right now.

Meanwhile, Orion remained seated in the living room but he could see what Mia was wearing even though she was a few feet away from him. "You call that a cooking attire?" Orion asked.

"Hey, no peeking."

"I can’t help it, I had to look. Anyway, you’re seriously going to cook while dressed like that?" Orion asked with a teasing smile on his lips.

"Yeah, I am. I like it because it keeps me cool while I work," Mia replied and spun around to show off her apron.

Meanwhile, Dahlia stood a few steps away from Mia, but she was fidgeting nervously because she was dressed like Mia, which meant that Dahlia was currently wearing nothing but an apron.

"I-I feel... exposed," Dahlia muttered as she stared down at the black apron she was wearing.

"Nah, you look great, Dahlia," Orion gave Dahlia a thumbs up as he admired her sexy body, but Dahlia’s cheeks turned crimson and she tried to hide the smile on her face.

Mia, on the other hand, cleared her throat to draw Orion’s attention towards her before saying. "Ahem, aren’t you forgetting someone?"

"Hmm, am I?" Orion asked in a puzzled tone while acting as though he didn’t know what Mia was talking about.

Mia pouted and leaned closer to him. "Yes, you are. So, what do you think?" Mia spread her arm wide to show Orion the apron she was wearing.

"You look deliciously distracting."

"Hehe, I’ll take that as a compliment," Mia giggled and spun around to give Orion a better view of her body, but her apron was currently covering her pointy nipples and lower lips, so Orion could only be shown a glimpse of her body. Although, this was enough to make him feel aroused.

With that out of the way, the trio returned to the kitchen and they gathered around the recipe book.

The book was now floating in front of them while the pages were propped, allowing them to see the detailed instructions of several recipes.

"Okay," Orion began to read the steps aloud. "We need to combine these ingredients in exact amounts, then we’ll infuse the mixture with a little bit of mana. Sounds simple enough."

Mia grabbed a bowl and her blue eyes gleamed with determination. "Let’s do this," she said as she turned her attention towards the ingredients they had gathered on the counter.

Dahlia cautiously measured out the flour with steady hands, but she had a nervous expression on her face. "I think we need to whisk it first…"

"Leave it to me," Mia declared happily with a huge smile on her face.

She swiftly grabbed a whisk and began to attack the mixture with a lot of enthusiasm. The bowl wobbled precariously and a puff of flour exploded into the air, coating her face and silver hair in white powder.

Seeing this, Orion couldn’t help but burst into laughter ."Mia, you’re supposed to mix, not blow up the ingredients."

"It’s fine," Mia replied, waving her hand which inadvertently sent another cloud of flour into the air. "See? It’s artistic," She said with a giggle. Stay connected through novelbuddy

Dahlia’s lips twitched into a small smile as she reached for a towel. "Here, Princess Mia, let me help," Dahlia moved forward to help Mia wipe the flour away from her face, but the weird cooking wasn’t over just yet.

It had barely just begun.

They continued to cook, but Mia playfully smudged some flour on Orion and Dahlia’s cheeks.

Meanwhile, Orion and Dahlia coughed out with a smile on their faces. Mia was truly something else and neither of them could ever stay mad at her for acting so childish.

Besides, her positive attitude and vibes were infectious and no one would want to stop the fox princess from being happy.

"You’re supposed to be helping Mia, not making a bigger mess," Orion said teasingly as he reached out to wipe a streak of flour from Mia’s nose.

Mia grinned and leaned closer to Orion until their faces were mere inches apart from each other; then she swiftly stole a kiss from his sexy lips, not minding the fact that her lips, nose, and face as a whole were covered in flour.

The three continued to giggle and have fun while practicing some of the simple recipes for today.

They were currently practicing how to make a souffle, but the kitchen had turned into a disaster zone.

Flour covered the counter and most of Mia’s body as well. So, the kitchen which had initially been organized and tidy, was now littered with utensils and half-empty bowls.

Although it might seem like the three of them were unable to produce anything, they were actually able to make a souffle.

The golden-colored souffle shimmered at the center of the counter like a golden trophy, and the three of them approached their experiment as they tried to take a bite of the dessert.

"We did it," Mia declared as she nudged Orion a bit. "See? I told you teamwork makes dreams work."

"Nope, you didn’t say that, and that sounded cringe."

"No, it didn’t."

"It did, but I’ll admit it, the souffle turned out better than I had expected."

Dahlia nodded in agreement with Orion’s words.

She was standing close to the two with her hands clasped in front of her chest as she admired the souffle in front of them.

It was the first time she was ever cooking with Orion and Mia, and Dahlia had recorded this special moment in her memory.

It had been a special activity for her and today had definitely become a day she would never forget.

With that out of her way, Mia swiftly pulled Dahlia into a side hug. "Come on, Dahlia, let’s dig in together. It’s our first meal together, let’s enjoy every bite of it.

Dahlia nodded with a smile and the three ate the soufflé. Then they cooked, ate again, and had more fun. Their laughter echoed loudly within Orion’s dorm room, and the moment they were done, they rested a bit to gather their strength.

It was now midday, and the sun was shining brightly over the academy. Meanwhile, Orion, Dahlia, and Mia made their way to the training grounds to practice for the upcoming air ball tournament.

Initially, the air ball tournament used to be reserved for just the students, but because Stella Hall didn’t have enough members in its team, the academy allowed the attendants of the top three students to join the tournament as well.

Now, Dahlia and Mia were allowed to train, just like Lilith and Aslan’s attendants.

Air ball was a sport Orion was familiar with back on Earth.

On Earth, it was called a Quidditch game, but over here, it had a few differences from the one Orion was familiar with.

Well, to be honest, it had a little bit of similarity to a movie he had watched once.

Anyways, Orion focused his mind on what was currently important.

He approached the training ground, along with Mia and Dahlia, and the three walked over to the equipment rack to pick up a magically enchanted broomstick, which was specifically designed for the air ball tournament.

Mia’s silver tail swished excitedly as she examined the broomstick in her hands. "The air ball tournament sounds amazing. Will you be teaching us a few tricks?"

"It would be nice to learn some tricks, but let’s focus on the basics first. We need to get you two comfortable with working in the air and getting used to your new gear.

Dahlia clutched her broomstick tightly And her purple eyes widened in apprehension after hearing what Orion said. She slowly raised up her hand to say what was on her mind.

"I’ve never flown before."

"I know, Dahlia, and that’s why I’m here, to teach you everything I know. Trust me, Dahlia, you’re gonna love it. There’s nothing like feeling the wind in your hair and the world beneath you.

"I… I’m not so sure I can handle heights," Dahlia murmured and tightened her grip on her broomstick.

Orion stepped closer and placed an arm on her shoulder while reassuring her with a warm smile. "Don’t worry about that. I’ll teach you everything you need to know and I’ll be right here with you. But we’ll start slow, okay?"

Dahlia smiled and nodded her head in response.

’I knew it, His Highness is the best. I love him!!’

A/N:- Thank you so much for the continued support, as always.

To be honest, I didn’t know Orion wasn’t the only character in the contest. You can’t imagine how surprised I was when I discovered that both Orion and Mia had qualified for the quarter-final round in different sections.

Orion will be contesting in the fourth round of the quarter-final (in the male section), while Mia will be contesting in the third round (in the female section). Thank you so much, as always.
