I Can Copy Curses

He hadn\'t expected that Orion would be able to pass the test. In fact, he had long lost hope that Orion would succeed due to his perceived lack of talent. But now, seeing him standing in front of him, even in a holographic version, he could see the confidence in his eyes that he hadn\'t seen five years ago.

"I never thought you would pass the test," Butler Rio said, looking at Orion. "It seems luck is with Young Master Orion."

Orion smiled at him, not because of his compliment but because of how ironic the last sentence he said was.

"It was indeed luck, I guess," he said, smiling. He didn\'t know if his death on Earth was his fortune or his misfortune.

"So, what did you call me here for?" Butler Rio asked. "You wouldn\'t just call me here to congratulate you, would you?"

"About that, it\'s like this…" Orion explained the whole situation to him in detail.

As Rio heard everything Orion said, his face became ugly in the end.

"Don\'t worry, Young Master Orion," he said assuringly. "I will inform the Master right away."

"Make sure this reaches the ears of the Magus Emperor," Orion added.

"As you say, Young Master," Rio nodded.

"Remember, we only have a week," Orion said solemnly. "Alright, you can go now."

Rio nodded as his holographic view disappeared from the circular crystal.

"Young Master, can I come with you too tomorrow?" Lisa asked as she took the crystal back.

Orion also wanted to invite her to this. He knew that she was hiding her strength intentionally because, from what he could remember from five years ago, she was already at the iron rank at that time; therefore, she should at least be at the silver rank, if not more, right now.

"You can indeed join us tomorrow," he said to her. "By the way, do you have an extra space bracelet on you?" He further asked.

He really needed a space bracelet right now. If the situation where he couldn\'t use the other dimension came, then all his weapons would be stuck there, and he would be weaponless at that time.

"Space bracelet?" Lisa shook her head at him. "I don\'t have it right now, but I could get you one tomorrow if you want."

"Yeah," Orion nodded. "Do that."

"Alright," he further said. "You can go now."

Lisa nodded and left this place.

Orion then sat down on the bed and thought through some things about this world.

\'It was only an hour ago; I knew nothing about the Magus Kingdom, but now I know everything.\'

He understood the world of the Magus Kingdom and the various territories in it.

The first was the strongest of all the emperor, who ruled the entire Magus Kingdom, known as the Magus Emperor Maximus.

After him were the seven Magi Kings. Each of them ruled a small group of planets scattered across the entire star realm, called Haven. These groups of planets came into three categories: 1-star, 2-star, and 3-star planets.

He also understood many things he previously wasn\'t sure about through his memories, like that he didn\'t know anything about space bracelets before, but now he knew about them.

As he thought about all those things, he sighed in relief that his memories had returned. Without them, he wondered how long the clueless version of himself would have survived in such a world.

\'I should sleep and get some rest. Tomorrow is going to be a long day.\'

Orion thought as he went to his bed and fell asleep a moment later.

The next day, he woke up early and took a bath in the mini-pond in his room before preparing himself for what was to come.

After that, he waited, and not long after, a knock sounded at his door.

He knew it could only be Lisa this early, but he still went into the other dimension and checked. To his surprise, she didn\'t come alone; Famir and Ryfin were with her.

Orion felt a little conflicted seeing them. He didn\'t blame them for not believing him, but he still couldn\'t let it go.

\'Why am I grumpy like a kid? All of this is just a misunderstanding. So, I should just chill.\'

He thought as he came back to his room and opened the door.

Lisa, Famir, and Ryfin—all three of them entered his room.

But Famir and Ryfin didn\'t go deep before they stopped and looked at Orion apologetically.

"I know it\'s very late, but we are sorry for not believing you," Famir said with his head down. Ryfin nodded from the side.

They learned the truth after some people witnessed the fight between the assassin and Orion in the middle of Market Street. With nothing better to do, they began spreading the details of the fight to one another, and soon everyone in Aethelgard City knew what had happened.

Famir and Ryfin also learned about the fight that way, and then they recalled what Orion had told them when that person \'died\' at his hands.

Like that, they came to know that all this time they were wrong about Orion, and they felt deeply remorseful.

They wanted to apologize to Orion right away, but they couldn\'t find him at his house for a week. This made them depressed, but last night they encountered Lisa, who finally led them here.

Seeing their remorseful expressions, Orion understood that they had learned the truth. So he also didn\'t dwell on it much, realizing that it was all just a misunderstanding.

"It\'s alright," Orion said, accepting their apology as he smiled at them. "I already knew you guys would come to apologize, so no problem on my end. Haha."

Lisa, seeing Orion forgive them, nodded inwardly.

Famir and Ryfin also sighed in relief as Orion forgave them. They had been carrying a heavy burden of guilt due to this misunderstanding, but Orion\'s forgiveness brought them immense relief.

At that moment, Orion suddenly called out to two of them.

"You two, come with me for a moment to another room."

Famir, Ryfin, and even Lisa seemed confused about what Orion wanted so secretly from them. But knowing Orion, Famir and Ryfin nodded and followed him into another room.

Lisa alone stood there with a foul expression on her face.

\'Bad Young Master, now that he met his friends, he forgot about me.\'

She wondered what could be so secretive that she—his personal maid—wasn\'t allowed to know.

***

After Orion and the other two arrived at the different rooms, Orion began explaining what he wanted.

"Listen, the body I am occupying right now has a very unique and big background, and Lisa is my personal maid according to this body, so you guys should keep your mouth shut about transmigration or anything related to it near Lisa; otherwise, I might get into some huge trouble. Understood?"

They nodded heavily upon hearing Orion. Although they felt shocked and a little bit jealous, they knew what to do and what not to do.

"Good," Orion smiled, seeing they understood as he asked something from them. "Do you guys know the plan right?"

Famir and Ryfin appeared confused as to what plan Orion was talking about.

Seeing their confused faces, Orion once again explained everything about the secrets of Aethelgard City.
