He had only barely been able to get one word answers out of these two when he tried to talk to them earlier.
Don't even mention having an actual conversation!
The reason for this isn't even what he thinks, truthfully.
Nor Rudra nor Iris appreciated his flirting attempts, but that wasn't the reason for their dry conversation.
It was because they only knew how to talk about their power!
As a genius, Orion didn't focus on training as hard as most others because it came easier to him.
As a talented and bored prince, he did a bunch of things outside of training that he found entertaining.
Rudra and Iris weren't the same.
Their lives were about power and combat.
The reason Orion was given dry responses was because he simply didn't listen to what they were actually interested in talking about!
No one had asked him a question in the last ten minutes. Selene kept leaning toward Rudra. Elizabeth and Iris spoke like training sisters.
And Rudra… Rudra kept smiling.
