Volume 3 Chapter 7: That Isn’t Your Horse Anymore

During dinner, Keith and the family were having a meal. It was quite a feast. It was the day before Keith's journey to the academy. 

"Keith, do you really have to take this test?" Sophia questioned. 

Keith nodded, "Mmhmm, I have to take the test," It was something he needed to do. 

"But I'm surprised," Alvin added as he snapped his fingers, "I thought the principal would pass you like that." That was how fast he thought Keith would enter the academy. 

All enrollees would require an examination to get in. But he didn't think Keith would need one. That was because of how much Cadmus wanted Keith to attend the academy. 

"Grandpa Cadmus did say I didn't need to take the test. But Uncle Sohma said I will need it, or it will look weird." Sohma was the one who suggested Keith should take the test. 

And he understood why. 

It would be weird to other students that one student didn't need to take the test. 

"Are you sure you don't want to use the teleportation gate?" Sophia questioned. With how the big city became, a teleportation gate was added. 

Keith shook, "I prefer riding than going through a teleportation gate."

Keith could arrive at the royal capital in an instant. But he didn't want that. It was more fun traveling by horse. 

"I see," William nodded, "Remember to pack everything you need on the journey."

"Already prepared," Keith smiled. He had everything ready to go. 

...

The next morning, Keith was dressed in warm clothing. He had his sword around his waist. He was ready to set off. William and the rest of the family were outside to see him set off. 

"Good luck on your way there, Keith," William stated. 

"Mmhmm,"

"Remember to watch out for monsters," Sophia warned. There were going to be monsters along the way there. 

"I know, Mother." Keith smiled. He looked at the two children, "Big Brother will be gone for a while. Remember to behave, okay?"

"Okay!" The two children shouted. 

Keith smiled as he patted their heads, "Good. I'll buy you some souvenirs when I have the chance,"

"Kid, don't think about messing with my horse," Michael frowned as he brought Barton. 

Keith laughed, "Relax. Barton is a great horse. There's nothing to worry about,"

"..." I'm not concerned about that. Of course, Michael knew he was a good horse. What he was afraid of was Barton being stolen by Keith. 

Keith was going to use Barton for his journey. As he got on top of the horse,

Eric sighed, "Michael, you have to face the facts. Barton is already Keiths."

Derek added, "The hierarchy is probably Keith and then you."

"...You two really want to fight, huh?" Michael crunched his knuckles as he stared at them. These two were asking for it!

"Heh," Keith chuckled as he patted Barton's head. 

"I'm off now!" Keith waved his hands as he was ready to set off. Aria flew up in the sky while Fira rode on Keith's shoulders. 

"Barton! Go fast!" Fira shouted. She wanted the horse to go as fast as possible. 

Keith laughed, "Barton, you can go all out," 

"Ngeh!" Barton made a slight snort as he ran! The speed was incredible as it zipped out the gates before it could fully open.

"Wooohooo!" Keith shouted out loud. 

"..." Alvin turned to Michael, "Don't ever say that Barton is your horse. Accept reality."

"..." Michael wanted to throw himself out the window!

...

Keith's group continued to ride without a thought. But after some time, 

"Barton, you should take a break. There's a stream up ahead." Keith stated. He had been traveling around the northern region for some time now. He knew some locations where they could rest. 

Barton slowed down, and Keith got off the horse. He grabbed the harness and brought him to the stream, "Drink a lot. We're going to be riding for some time,"

Without resting, Keith and Barton could make it there in a couple of days. But where would the fun be in that? He wanted to take his time to get there. 

"Delicious," Fira was drinking some water as well. But Keith suddenly placed his finger on Fira's face!

Shh! Aria raised her wings as well. A monster. That was what the two felt as they looked around. 

From the right. Keith stared at Barton, and the horse understood. It kept silent. Like that, Keith went with Aria. And what the two found was a giant bear. Its body was huge. What was more, its fang stuck out from the mouth. They were sharp and could cut through steel.  

Keith stared at Aria. The latter nodded. And like that, the two of them made their move! Keith quickly dashed at it!

"Rawr!" The bear roared as it stared at Keith! It was ready to strike Keith down. But the ground became uneven, and a sinkhole formed! 

The bear didn't know what happened when its entire body dropped into that sinkhole! Keith took the chance and swung his blade, taking its head off!
