    <span style="font-weight:400">It would be wrong to send them away aftering all the way here. And he could say no to those eyes. Those eyes were saying they wanted to look around and y. Just looking at them made Keith sigh in defeat.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yay!" "Big brother is the best!" The little ones clung to Keith''s legs, theirughter echoing through the forest. Keith couldn''t help but smile at their cuteness.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"But make sure to stick by my side. I don''t want you guys to get hurt." There were still monsters in this forest. Danger lurked around.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!" And the two didn''t let go; actually, they used whatever strength they could muster as they clutched onto Keith''s leg. They were two little kos.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"There''s no need to cling to me so tightly. Just hold my hand as we go." The two nodded, their trust in him evident. As they walked, the snowballs were in front of them, ready to face any challenge.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hoo!" That was when they heard a scream. A giant rooster blocked their path. They looked at the four snowballs.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Giant chickens!" Leon blurted out. Keith nodded, "Yeah, they''re giant chickens." Well, giant roosters. But he wasn''t going to correct the child''s words.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Fira, constrict them. Inti and the rest, take them out." Keith ordered.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Understood!" "Po!" The five nodded as they went forth! Before those roosters could charge at them, vines burst from the ground. The rooster''s legs were constricted, making it fly. That was when Inti and the rest charged!


    <span style="font-weight:400">A rampaging freight train. That was the only way to describe their movement.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Big brother, what are you doing?" "Umm?" What Leon and Laura saw was ck.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good children shouldn''t see something like this." There was blood flying all over the ce. No way Keith was going to show them something like that. After a few seconds, the battle was finished.


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Po!" Inti and the rest charged at the three, wanting to get a head pat. But Keith shouted,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Hold!" That caused the four to stop in their tracks.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You need to clean first." Their fur was covered in blood.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Bo," Inti and the rest looked dejected. Keith asked Laura, "Laura, can you clean them up?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Okay!" Laura nodded as she raised her hand and chanted. Tiny bubbles surrounded the snowballs as they popped on them, cleaning them off.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good job, your magic has improved. Did Mother teach you?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!" Laura nodded.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I can use fire!" Not wanting to be left out, Leon made fire appear in his hand.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good job! The two of you have learned magic so well!" This was true. The two learned at a rapid pace. They could be strong mages in the future.


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yes, yes. I haven''t forgotten." Keith sighed as he patted the snowballs'' heads. Leon and Laura were back up as they patted as well.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s keep going." He remembered his objective; this was training for Fira and the others. Like that, they set off. But it became apparent to Keith.


    <span style="font-weight:400">This might be too weak for them. Mir and the others literally popped their opponents out of existence! Should I bring them somewhere else another time?


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Alright, I think we can stop and take a break." Keith looked at the amount they had; it was enough.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s sit over there and have lunch," Keith pointed under a big tree. The little ones nodded as they sat down with him.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Po po!" "Don''t worry, I have snacks for you all." Keith quickly brought out loaves of bread. The snowballs were content with them.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Do you two want to try some pie?" Keith asked.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Pie?" "It''s sweet?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. It''s made from apples." Keith grinned. When he brought it out, the little ones got closer to it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Tasty!" "Mmhmm!" Flowers bloomed around as Leon and Laura chewed happily.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!" Fira was the same as she munched on a piece.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"How are the others?" Keith wanted to know.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Father and Mother are doing great. But they really miss you."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I see." Keith scratched his head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Big Brother Eric and Alvin work hard!"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"That''s great. What about Derek?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Umm, Michael is punishing him."


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"He did something, and Michael is punishing him."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Pff, that sounds so like him." I''m d nothing has changed over thest few months.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ahh! Big Brother! Big Sister May miss you a lot." Lauramented.


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


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...I see." I should write a letter to her as well. Keith continued to ask them questions about it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"She would sit in your seat and look out the window."
