<span style="font-weight:400">The entire ride was Keith hounded by Cedric while Krystal tried her best to hold him back. It was even worse than him trying to wave off the bakery. However, this onlysted about three minutes as they arrived at the royal capital''s gate.
<span style="font-weight:400">"It''s the Rustchil carriage."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Someone from the Rustchil family had arrived."
<span style="font-weight:400">The guards quickly moved in front of the carriage to greet them. The news about the grand duke being framed was spread to them first. However,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Sniveling brat!" Cedric muttered as he left the carriage with a dark expression. The aura from him made the guards gasp. Such a dark and furious aura! The carriage didn''t stop as the coachman told the person to head to the academy next.
<span style="font-weight:400">Inside the carriage was a disheveled Keith and a tired Krystal.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What is wrong with that old geezer?" Keith erupted in frustration, his voice echoing in the carriage. He hastily got up, his hands trembling as he tried to fix his disheveled clothes. After getting shaken so much, it caused his hand to vibrate.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I don''t think he likes the idea of me being a waitress," Krystal muttered.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You think?!" Keith blinked. Cedric''s explosiveness was a no-brainer!
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"And I thought I would get some good nap." Why was there something like that?
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." You''re more concerned with the nap? Where were this guy''s priorities?
<span style="font-weight:400">"We''re finally home." Looking out the window, Keith saw they had returned to the city. Krystal took a deep sigh as well. We finally returned; the two had returned from a political battle.
<span style="font-weight:400">"I wonder what everyone''s doing." Keith got out of the carriage. It was time for them to head to the academy. The two then entered the ind, just like when they left.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith took a deep breath, "The air here is the best." No matter where he went, his ind always had the best air. While he was mesmerized by the smell,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Keith!" A yful voice called out. With it came,
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Po!" "Ho!" Two little cries also came forward as Keith turned his head, "Aww, Hello, you three!" The three monsters quickly jumped on him.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Did you guys miss me?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm!" "Po!" "Ho!" The three monsters quickly called. Fira turned over to Krystal,
<span style="font-weight:400">"Wee home, Krystal!" "Po!" The fairy and snowball quickly jumped over to her. The two were pretty close with her.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm." Krystal patted the two. But that was not the end of this assault.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Woof!" "Kwak!" "Meow!" "Pii!" The spirit squad then tackled Keith all at once.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"I missed you guys as well." Keith chuckled.
<span style="font-weight:400">0 attack power, but 100% fluffiness was there. He could die like this any other day!
<span style="font-weight:400">But that was not the end; the spirit squad quickly moved away. That was when a couple of shadows came flying on top of him!
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mgh!" Keith''s expression became indescribable as his face contorted as the giant weight came on his body.
<span style="font-weight:400">Krystal blinked before she said, "Hi guys,"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hello!" Herrick, Melor, and Jack waved, continuing to be on Keith''s body. The others soon came out.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What are you fools doing?" Alfia came out to see a giant pile on top of the man.
<span style="font-weight:400">"We saw Saphir and the others piling on Keith, so why not us?" It seemed pretty fun.
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." That''s because this guy likes fluffy things. There was a difference between them and the spirits.
<span style="font-weight:400">"….I think he''s dead," Krystal muttered. Keith was silent the moment those three piled on him.
<span style="font-weight:400">"...Not yet." Keith gritted his teeth as he stared at them.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Are you going to get off of me?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"No way." "After leaving so long, you need a special wee home!"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…" Killing me is your special way of saying wee home?
<span style="font-weight:400">"Seriously, you guys! You know that weight stacks when you guys are together like this, right?!" After they had gotten off, it was time for them to get lectured. However, the three seemed to be spacing out; everything was going in and out of the other ear. Keith shook his head,
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"How has the ind been going?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Oh, there was a day when Herrick went crazy because of no food."
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">“…” Should I be hearing this?
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"There''s also the incident in the living room where Alfia and Scarlet trie-" "Wait! Don''t tell him that!" The two girls quickly grabbed Melor by the mouth, shutting him up.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…It seems a lot of things happened while away." And I don''t think I need to find out about it. There was no way he would care about all of this.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Did anything else happen?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">“…” The moment that was said, Gabriel and the others flinched.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"…." Keith noticed it and sighed, "Alright. I will be going to my room and chill out." After being away for so long, it was time for him to get some sleep. Alfia and the others nodded,
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yes! Go to sleep!"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"You guys probably done a lot thesest few days!"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Alright then." Keith shook his head as he headed for his bedroom.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Phew! I thought for sure he was going to figure it out!" Herrick and the others were about to lose it. But one voice cut that down.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Guys, you understand that Keith already knows, right?" Krystal retorted.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?"
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">Gabriel, Alfia, Sarah, Faelyn, and Scarlet sighed at this.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"He just didn''t say anything about this." Keith understood they wanted to hide something and decided to let them hide it.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">"So what is it that you''re hiding?" Krystal blinked. For them to hide something like that from the guy meant it had to do something with the person himself.
<span style="font-weight:400">
<span style="font-weight:400">Scarlet sighed, "It''s about Keith. However, it''s something that we''re unsure of how to go about with this."
