<span style="font-weight:400">"Can someone tell me what''s going on here?" Keith stated as he stared at Sophia, May, and Fira.
<span style="font-weight:400">The three were sitting on the ground while Keith had a tense expression.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I don''t know what you''re talking about, Son." Sophia looked away, trying not to make eye contact with her son. But Keith got close to Sophia''s face and brought the jar to their faces,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mind telling me how these cookies disappeared?!"
<span style="font-weight:400">It was arge jar. It was supposed to be stuffed full of cookies.
<span style="font-weight:400">But it was now empty!
<span style="font-weight:400">He had no words. This amount was supposed tost a week. But this was gone in a day! And Keith knew who the culprits were.
<span style="font-weight:400">Sophia, May, and Fira had a sweet tooth. Well, everyone in the estate enjoyed sweets. But these three were the worst. They couldn''t stop eating them.
<span style="font-weight:400">They would need one every hour!
<span style="font-weight:400">That was why he called all three of them here.
<span style="font-weight:400">What they did was too far.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Dear, someone might have stolen them instead," Sophia stated. May nodded,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yeah! An animal might have entered the estate and stolen the cookies!" Fira nodded her head quickly as she said this. Keith frowned and stared at the three''s faces,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Then why do I see some crumbs on your faces?"
<span style="font-weight:400">He could see it on Fira''s face. It wasn''t long since they finished it!
<span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?" Fira quickly covered her mouth, trying to hide the crumbs.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You guys can''t hide it from me." May and Sophia were good at hiding. But he could see some crumbs.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I guess I shouldn''t make any cookies for some time." Keith shrugged as he took the jar. Before he could leave the room,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, don''t do it!" "Young Master, No!" "We did it!"
<span style="font-weight:400">Hearing Keith''s words, the three didn''t hesitate to reveal it. Keith couldn''t help but shake his head,
<span style="font-weight:400">"You guys shouldn''t eat so many sweets."
<span style="font-weight:400">"We work out a lot." "I help out in the estate!." "Spirits don''t gain weight."
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." What they said was true. Because they live in a cold climate, they need more food for their bodies. Sophia worked out using magic while May cleaned the estate. Fira, he didn''t know about it.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Keep it to a minimum next time." Keith left the room. But he could hear the girls screaming in relief. He shook his head as he entered the kitchen,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Gus, you have to make more cookies."
<span style="font-weight:400">"What?! Didn''t I refill the jar two days ago?!" Gus dropped his knife. His expression said it all.
<span style="font-weight:400">He was in disbelief.
<span style="font-weight:400">"...They ate it all." When Keith revealed this, Gus dropped to the floor.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Come on!" Gus roared out!
<span style="font-weight:400">"There, there." Keith couldn''t help but feel bad for him. The person who suffered the most from all this was Gus. That man was forced to make bread and sweets like a madman!
<span style="font-weight:400">"Young Master, can you help me out." Gus stared at him.
<span style="font-weight:400">But Keith waved his hand. "Sorry. But this isn''t my problem."
<span style="font-weight:400">"But you made all of this!" Gus wanted to cry, "I have to make it for the knights too!" It wasn''t only for Sophia and the rest.
<span style="font-weight:400">Gus also had to bake it for the knights too!
<span style="font-weight:400">"Ahh, I will think of a way to fix it." Keith had a thought.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Really?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yes. But I need to think about it first." Keith stated.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Please do something! I don''t think I can take it!" Gus grabbed Keith''s shoulders and shook him!
<span style="font-weight:400">...
<span style="font-weight:400">"What''s going on, Father?" William called all of them to the dining room to talk about something.
<span style="font-weight:400">"We''ll be going to the academy."
<span style="font-weight:400">"We are?!" Keith was excited.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." William nodded, "We''ll go to the royal capital first to meet with your grandparents. There, we can go to the academy afterward."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Alright!" Keith raised his hand into the air with excitement.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Pack whatever you need. We''ll be leaving by tomorrow." Keith nodded his head. And like that, Keith got to work packing up. While Keith was packing up, Sophia entered his room,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, remember there''s no need for you to have too many winter clothes."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Understood, Mother!" Unlike their territory, the royal capital was warm.
<span style="font-weight:400">It didn''t take long for Keith to finish packing his clothes. But there was something else he had to do. He went to the kitchen,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Gus, I''m going to be cooking something."
<span style="font-weight:400">"What are you making? Boss?" Gus was excited. Keith stated, "I''m going to make something easy and delicious."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hmm?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Don''t worry, you don''t need to make it...I think." Keith had a strained expression.
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." Gus had nothing to say.
