    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hello, dorm mother Diana." Herrick greeted Diana. She was an enigma, but he could feel it. She was so much stronger than Nephele.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Wee home, Herrick." Diana smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Is Keith home?" Herrick looked around.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Keith will return in a few hours. He went to the library. Gabriel, Jack, and Sarah won''t be joining us today. They''re going to a party."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see," Herrick remembered something about them heading to a party.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Where is Master Fira?" Herrick wanted to meet with the little spirit.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Diana chuckled, "Fira is in the back dealing with the garden."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Thank you." With that, Herrick headed back to the ground. And he saw another person there as well.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Arlo, you''re here as well?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Herrick, wee home!" Fira waved her hand.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, hi." Arlo slowly waved.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Aren''t you going to the party?" Last time he checked, shouldn''t Arlo also be there; he was a human.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Arlo scratched his head. "No. That party is for humans. But I''m only half." He could go but didn''t want to bother the others because he was half-dwarf. The others would shun him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You were looking for Fira, right. I won''t bother you two." Arlo got up, ready to return to his room.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hey," Herrick called out,


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">Herrick started to scratch his head before speaking, "I''m kinda bad at things like this. But I-" Before Herrick could say it, he hesitated and then thought,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Argh!" A scream came out the next second, which confused Arlo and Fira, "I''m sorry."


    <span style="font-weight:400">That caused Arlo to be confused, "About what?" What was there to apologize for?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m sorry about what I said about you being weaker than me," Herrick remembered what he said to him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ah," Arlo waved his hand, "You don''t have to worry about that!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"No. What I said was wrong. You''re different from me; however, you''re strong. I realized that Ick many things and need to improve."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see," Arlo didn''t say anything. However, a thought came to his mind, "Wait here for a moment," Arlo quickly headed into the mansion. He returned a secondter,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What''s that?" Arlo had brought something with him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"This is a pot I created," Arlo smiled, "It''s not the same as the one you have. I used some materials that will help keep your nt stable. That way, you don''t have to worry about it so much,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">Herrick''s eyes widened.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"If you continue to walk with it all the time, the shaking would affect it. I made this pot so it can withstand the vibration."


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m not as strong as you. But I can make things to help out," Arlo scratched his head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Thanks," Herrick smiled. That was something he could never think of.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"No problem. Let me know if you need help," Arlo smiled.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"This is nice," While the two talked, Diana and Nephele watched the newfound friendship.


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">While that happened on the ind, Keith was at the library taking out some books. And when he headed to his usual spot, he was surprised to spot Ange.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Senior Ange, why are you here?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ah, Keith." Ange looked up and exined, "You see. I still need to do some work here."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see." A little work? That giant pile of paperwork said something differently.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you need help?" However, Ange shook her head, "I''m fine. How can I ask my junior for help? I can finish it in an hour!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"We''re going to be closing in half an hour!" The librarian stated.


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you still need my help?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...Please," Ange sighed.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What do you need me to work on?" Keith smiled as he sat across from her.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Please check this paperwork here," Ange handed the paperwork over to him, "You just need to check if it''s correct with the paper here,"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Gotcha," Keith smiled. Like that, he got to work. The task was simple enough as he worked. As he did,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...What''s the matter, Senior?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How could you move so fast?!" Keith''s hands were like a blur.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"This is normal pace, though?" Keith had always checked the paperwork from his bakery. This was light work for him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"..." "Let''s keep going."
