Chapter 381: Elysia's Fustration

At those words, Elysia's eyes immediately narrowed, and her initial reaction was to slap his hand away with the back of her right hand.

"Ouch!!" Orion instinctively rubbed his hand, feeling the force behind Elysia's slap.

"You're lucky I didn't break it," Elysia said with a scoff, her anger apparent in her expression. She then tried to stand up once more but winced in pain and landed back on her small buttocks.

Orion, who had sat upright to soothe his slapped hand, observed Elysia's struggling attempt to stand up with a smirk. "Well, it seems you're stuck here with me for the night. I was going to do my best to keep you company, but since it appears you can manage on your own, I'll get some rest for the day. See you in the morning," Orion said with a smile as he laid back on the bed once more, closing his eyes to sleep. 

He muttered, "Good night, Elysia."

Elysia watched him drift off to sleep, her annoyance growing just from looking at his face.
