I Can Copy Curses

Its name was Gusto Delicacy, situated in the same city Orion had seen earlier—New Heaven. But this time, he was inside the city with his big sister and Elyn.

After leaving the Emperor Heaven Palace, Barion and all the elders returned to the family while Emily suggested she and Orion explore the city first.

Orion liked the idea and immediately asked his father for permission. Barion, with a helpless smile, shook his head and granted them the freedom his children needed.

And that's how they found themselves in this place, waiting for their food to arrive.

"Here."

Some time later, the waiter brought their food, and Orion began devouring it.

"Orion, are you happy with the emperor's decision?" Emily asked as she took a water bottle from the table.

Orion nodded while eating. "Hmm, I'm satisfied. Though it was a little questionable, I think this is the best-case scenario for us."

Emily smiled when she saw that Orion didn't blame the emperor for his decision. "You've matured, I think. I had thought you would definitely be angry at the emperor's decision."

Orion chewed his food as he looked at his sister. "The emperor wants me to find Evans. Only if I apprehend him and bring him back to the royal court will he not blame me for what happened. That's what he said for everyone to hear so no one gets dissatisfied with his decision. But I believe he is simply stalling for time.

He gave me three months to find Evans, and guess what event is three months later?"

"Dollas Academy," Emily calmly answered and asked. "If you and I can see that the emperor is favoring you, can't the others notice this too?"

Orion nodded and drank some water from the bottle on the table.

"Well," he said after drinking water, "the Emperor made a valid point there, asking those who accused me if I and Evans were somehow working together in that place or not. The Silverflame family and the Grimwolf family immediately took the bait and agreed with the Emperor, saying I must have something to do with the whole incident and I must have been working with the Valen Family for that."

He once again began eating his food.

"After that, everything became easy for the Emperor. He immediately asked me to bring Evans in three months' time, and if I couldn't bring him in that period, that would mean I am guilty.

With this decision, the Silverflame family and the Grimwolf family could only shut their mouths and accept the Emperor's decision, even if they were unsatisfied, because they also agreed with the Emperor that I am working with the Valen family."

Emily nodded, wondering since when her little brother had become so wise. But soon, her face turned pale, thinking about what she was about to do.

'My whole family is cursed, it seems,' she thought in despair.

"What happened?" Orion asked in concern when he saw the depressed look on his sister's face.

Elyn, who had already noticed it, understood the reason behind Emily's expression but couldn't do anything about it.

Emily shook her head. "Nothing, I just recalled a dungeon mission I'm about to undertake with Elyn."

"What dungeon?" Orion asked curiously.

Emily replied, "A dungeon recently discovered on this planet. As this planet is mostly unexplored, dungeons have become very frequent. Almost every month, a new dungeon is discovered, and people enter to clear it. That's why I decided to come with you here today, as I had already planned with Elyn to go to this dungeon, which will fully open in 2 days."

"What level is the dungeon?" Orion asked, suddenly interested and deciding he would go there if the level of the dungeon met his requirements.

"The boss of the dungeon is a peak platinum rank monster," Emily said, her brows furrowed. "You also want to go there?"

"Can I?" Orion asked. He didn't know if there were any requirements for entering a dungeon, so he wasn't clear about whether he should be given permission or not.

"You can, but I have to talk to the Dungeon Management Association for that," Emily said.

Orion nodded as he finished eating everything and said, "Please do that. I would also like to enter the dungeon."

Emily nodded.

At that moment, all three of them had finished eating, and it was time for them to leave.

Emily stood up and cleaned her hands with the napkins on the table. "I have already booked rooms for us in this city, so we will live there for the two days until the dungeon opens."

Orion nodded and did the same. "Alright, but I will need a separate room."

Elyn laughed suddenly at that moment. "Who would want to live with you in the same room?"

Orion smiled. "It's not that I don't want to share a room with two of the Three Blossoms, it's just that I plan to train all night, and that would probably disturb your sweet sleep."

"Humph—" Elyn was about to continue bickering with Orion when Emily interfered.

"Don't worry, I have booked the entire floor, so there is plenty of room for everyone."

Orion nodded. He had expected that, considering his big sister's habit of spending more money than usual.

"Alright, let's leave now," Emily said to them.

Orion and Elyn nodded, and they soon left the restaurant, headed towards a skyscraper visible in the distance from them.

As they walked, Orion couldn't help but admire the city's architecture and the advanced technology that seamlessly blended with the traditional elements of the Magus Kingdom. The streets were bustling with people, and the sight of flying shuttles above added a futuristic touch to the whole scene.

'This is phenomenal.'

Orion was genuinely surprised. He had already seen everything when he came to the restaurant, but he couldn't help but get amazed as he was once again walking the streets of this beautiful city. The blend of futuristic architecture with the traditional charm of the Magus Kingdom was beyond captivating.
