    <span style="font-weight:400">There was a moment of silence before Carolyn shouted, "Keith, you''re first ce!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith wanted to say something about this. He was holding back so hard when he saw the devious expression on Carolyn''s face!


    <span style="font-weight:400">I''m in pinch distance!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And this year''s freshman representative is also Keith Freed!" Cadmus shouted! Everyone''s expression changed even more when they heard that.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Pleasee up and say this year''s greeting!" Cadmus turned in Keith''s direction. Keith sighed. There was nothing he could do now.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood!" Keith walked up to the podium. While he was doing this, everyone was staring at him. All the attention was on him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"He''s the legendary fourth son of Marquis Freed."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"He''s the creator of the White Forest Bakery and White Owl Merchantpany."


    <span style="font-weight:400">Everyone heard about Keith''s name at least once. His name was intertwined with the White Forest Bakery and White Owl Merchant Company. And those two were widely known.


    <span style="font-weight:400">When he was up on the stage, Cadmus had a big grin on his face,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''ve been waiting for the day of your enrollment," His stomach was going to be filled with good food!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Principal Cadmus, can you not say something like that?" Keith let out a dry cough. You do understand everyone could hear you, right?!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What? The principal had been waiting for this child''s enrollment?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What is his rtionship with the principal?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How could he act like this?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">More people were confused as to it. From what Cadmus said, it seemed the two knew each other!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Huh? Principal Cadmus? Why are you calling me that? Call me grandpa like the other times," Cadmus scoffed. He liked Grandpa more than the principal. Since Keith said it so many times, it stuck with him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Dude!!! Keith didn''t know whether tough or cry at the moment. Carolyn was crying on the sidelines. That was because everyone''s eyes turned wide.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Grandpa?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"He calls the principal Grandpa?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Are you kidding me?!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">There were so many royals eyeing them down. That was because the principal was an ancient dragon capable of destroying everything. Yet this child called him Grandpa!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Principal Cadmus, we''re in a formal background," They were in front of so many royals!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Who cares," Cadmus shrugged his shoulders. He really didn''t care about what was going on around him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And stop calling me Princip-Mgh!" Before Cadmus could say anything else, Sohma came up behind and clotheslined him. Sohma turned to Keith,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Sorry about that, Student Keith." He never expected this fool to do something like that!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"It''s fine, Vice-Principal," Keith shook his head at the sight. He turned to the students. Cadmus had ced even more pressure on him than normal!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Showing the closeness the two had made people wonder even more!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith looked at the script that was on the stand. Easy. Keith stated, "Let''s sing our anthem,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">Like that, everyone started to sing the anthem calmly. Afterward, Keith was going to end it like this.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"And Keith here has some few words for you all!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What?!" Keith was going to go crazy! He couldn''t believe he would say something like that! Sohma looked like he was going to tear him a new one.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith took a deep breath and stated, "Thest words I have to say to everyone is that let''s have a pleasant school year. And I''m happy to make friends with everyone here,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">The expressions on everyone''s face changed when they heard that. But Keith didn''t mind as he walked back to his seat. I''m d this is over with.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Carolyn had a grin on her face as she stared at Keith,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good job out there, Keith," Gabriel praised. Under all that pressure, he continued to have a straight face.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Thanks," Keith sighed. The pledge continued with Sohma being the one to say it. It didn''t take long before Sohma told the students to break.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keith and Carolyn walked over to their parents.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Big Brother, that was awesome!" Leon and Laura were the first ones toe and grab his legs!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...Thanks," Keith had nothing to say about it. But Grandpa Cadmus really tried to screw me over.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"My son is this year''s representative," William chuckled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Kid, that was an interesting speech," Juliusughed.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." Keith''s expression turned dark.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Big sister Carolyn!" The two little children shouted as they rushed over to Carolyn''s side!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I missed the two of you!" Carolyn hugged the two tightly. Carolyn would meet the two little ones from time to time. And the three were ever so close.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Heh," The two kids giggled as they hugged her tightly. While that happened, Thalia stated,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith, please watch over my daughter during the school year,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Don''t worry about it, Aunty. I will watch over her," Keith nodded.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mother," Carolyn blushed when she heard that.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Keithughed, "What? She''s worried you might do something stupid,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You''re the one who''s going to do something stupid!" Carolyn quipped. But Keith pinched her cheeks.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Tsk, tsk."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We have to go now," Keith noticed the students were going to their ssrooms now.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Stay safe!" One by one, his family members hugged him. Thest two were Leon and Laura.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Guys, while I''m gone, I''m going to trust you guys to water and take care of the garden, okay?" Keith stated. It was an important job.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!" "Okay!" The two children nodded their heads. Keith smiled and hugged the two of them. Keith turned to Aria and Fira, "Fira, Aria, I''m going to summon you guyster."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood!" Like that, the two left their families and headed off to ss.
