Chapter 875 Isadora’s Predicament
Hearing Patriarch Rylan’s instructions, Lyndon, Lief, and the others nodded in solemn agreement. After what they had learned, they understood the gravity of the situation and the need for secrecy.
“Alright. Since you’ve all heard what Mr. Orion said regarding the punishment, you can head out to inform the rest of the Four-eared Elves race. Tell them this is their only chance to integrate into the Orion’s Cities or be expelled if they fail to fulfil their task flawlessly. You may go,” Patriarch Rylan commanded, observing their solemn nods as they left the room individually, including Lyndon.
Once they were all gone, Patriarch Rylan decided to go upstairs and check on the two children, who were likely pretending to be sound asleep.

Third Border City
Garden
As they landed before the grand entrance of the Garden, Orion glanced at Isadora. “I know this is your first time officially meeting my wife, Aurora, and the Pixie royal family, but don’t worry. Just follow my lead, and everything will be fine,” he reassured her, observing her anxious expression.
Isadora nodded in understanding. “I’ll keep that in mind, Mr. Orion,” she replied, trying to calm her nerves and the twitching of her ears, which seemed to intensify as they neared the Garden. Working closely with Orion for two days gave her a glimpse of the Garden’s distinct atmosphere compared to the Orion Cities, making her anxious about behaving appropriately to avoid trouble.
“What’s going on with your ears?” Orion asked curiously, noticing Isadora’s ear twitches. He hadn’t noticed it before, as their previous movements were subtle enough that he assumed she was controlling them herself. However, seeing them twitch so noticeably now, he couldn’t help but ask about her well-being.
Perhaps he had been pushing her to work too much.
Isadora, however, swiftly shook her head. “You don’t need to worry, Mr Orion. This is simply something that happens once in a while. It’s nothing serious,” she quickly reassured him.
“Okay, let’s go then,” Orion responded. He approached the guards standing at the entrance of the Garden, nodding at them as he passed through the passageway leading to the Garden.
Isadora followed behind him, her eyes brightening in surprise and amazement when she entered the Garden. The sun’s brilliance shone down upon the jewels, flowers, and trees, lighting them with a beautiful, mesmerizing hue. She looked around, trying to imprint everything into her mind.
“It’s beautiful,” Isadora muttered, her gaze lingering on the breathtaking scenery.
Suddenly, her attention was drawn forward to a familiar figure. The woman was dressed in a green, carpet-like gown adorned with intricate leaf designs of various sizes and colours. Her hair, a blend of golden and green, was crowned with a tiara made of vine flowers, with white pupils observing them as she approached their direction.
“Although you might have already seen her before, I’ll make an official introduction,” Orion said, noticing Isadora’s dazed expression. “Aurora, this is Isadora, my personal assistant. Isadora, meet Aurora, the proprietor of the Garden and my wife.”
Isadora’s brows inwardly twitched upon hearing how Orion had introduced her, knowing she had many titles that could have suited the occasion. However, considering her decision to work under him and her current dilemma, she chose not to dwell on it. She bowed slightly and said, “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Aurora. I hope we get the chance to get along in the future.”
Aurora smiled warmly, her curious eyes on Isadora’s fiercely twitching ears. “It’s a pleasure to meet you too, Princess Isadora,” she responded, then added with concern, “Is there anything wrong, Miss Isadora?”
Isadora quickly replied, “No, it’s nothing. My ears are like this once in a while. They would stop twitching so violently after a while.” She then shifted her attention towards Orion, who was also looking at her suspiciously and nodded in affirmation at him.
“Okay, if you say so,” Aurora responded, furrowing her brows in confusion, sensing something was amiss with Isadora. However, if Isadora did not mention it, she felt she had no right to pry.
“Come on, let me escort you to the Pixie Kingdom,” she added, turning around and grasping Orion’s right hand with her left before leading the way.
Observing this scene, Isadora couldn’t help but ponder how Orion managed to care for so many wives. Although she had only met a few of them, like Healer Greta, Reena, Dariya Malaia, Anara, and even his first child, Grace, it was clear they were all deeply in love with him. Isadora struggled to understand this, especially considering that many of these women were tree nymphs and could not bear children. How Orion had achieved such a feat was beyond her understanding.
Isadora suppressed the instinctual twitching in her ears as she followed Aurora and Orion through the Garden. She marvelled atthe sight ofvarious Pixies flying around, tending to the Garden, guarding it, or attending to various other tasks.
After twenty minutes, they finally reached their destination.
They stood before the entrance gate of the Pixie Kingdom, a structure made of thick bushes and tall trees that concealed their surroundings. Various guards and officials hovered in the air, awaiting their arrival.
At the forefront stood two regal figures: High King Eldric and High Queen Rowena. They instantly approached them.
“High King Eldric, High Queen Rowena, it’s good to see you both doing well. I hope the situation in the Pixie Kingdom has returned to normal,” Orion greeted with a smile.
They nodded in response.
Orion gestured beside him, “This is Isadora, my personal assistant. Isadora, meet High King Eldric and High Queen Rowena, the leaders of the Pixie race.”
“It’s a pleasure to meet you,” Isadora greeted, bowing respectfully in their direction.
High King Eldric and High Queen Rowena looked at Isadora curiously as they nodded in response.
High King Eldric instantly soared into the sky above Orion and Isadora, sprinkling his pixie dust over them.
Isadora, who was watching with curiosity, was surprised when she felt a wave of lightheadedness hit her and noticed her body was gradually shrinking.
