The carriage door opened with a smooth click.
And from within, Orion stepped out.
A hush fell over the immediate area.
The sunlight descended on the fine noble blue robes, making the silver embroidery glisten like living lightning. His posture was upright, graceful yet relaxed.
Long black hair tied neatly behind, his expression remained calm. Neither arrogant nor submissive, but approachable in a way that made even the commoners gather their courage to stare at him. Neither nobles nor royals could exude such charm so effortlessly.
Even those who didn't know him stopped and stared.
"Who… who is that?" one girl whispered, her voice trembling.
"Which noble house does he belong to?"
"Is that a visiting prince?"
The murmurs spread like wildfire.
But Orion paid them no mind.
