Volume 6.5 Chapter 62: Encircled On All Side
Keith waved his hand as he headed home with Jack and Knight. But as the two walked, "What's the matter with you?" He noticed something off with this guy. Jack was a step behind. It was weird as he fidgeted around as well.
"Nothing! There's absolutely nothing wrong!" Jack's voice quivered with a hint of defensiveness. Keith exchanged a knowing look with Knight, who responded with a snort. There was definitely something amiss. Could it be about the food incident? As Keith pondered,
"Come on! Do I look like a person who would cause trouble?!"
"Do you really want me to ask this question?" Keith and Knight tilted their heads. Was there really a need to ask?
"Hey! I'm not like you!" Jack's eyes twitched. Keith was definitely worse than him! The trouble he caused was definitely too much to count compared to his.
"So, you're not causing-" "Let's go take a walk!" Before Keith could finish his sentence, Jack pushed him! That only caused Keith to be even more wary. What is going on?
When the three returned to the mansion, Keith understood the reason!
What awaited him in front of the door was the three great spirits. But they were not the only ones; Cadmus, Sohma, and Aidiun were also there.
"Welcome home, Keith." Diana greeted Keith as always. What the man responded with was a frozen expression as he nodded, "I'm back, but I need to go now."
"Oh no, you don't!" Before the man could have the chance to retreat, Cadmus slammed him into the ground! Keith glared, "Did you have to use gravity magic?!" So ruthless! His entire body was indented into the floor!
"I couldn't stop myself; you were about to go at your top speed." Keith was ready to dash off! So he made his move. Grabbing Keith by the neck,
"We need to have a little talk!"
"..." That's not a little talk. That pressure coming off the dragon's body. It was anything but a little talk!
"What do we need to talk about?" And why are you all looking at me like that? The adults had strange looks.
"Let's not talk here. You just came home, Keith." Aidiun coughed. And like that, the man was brought into the living room, where he was forced to sit.
"Can you guys not surround me like this? I feel like I'm being on the chopping block." Everyone surrounded him on all sides; Alfia and the others were doing the same thing, making a double layer!
"Relax, we're all friends here." Alfia grinned.
Red flag! When Alfia grinned like that, something was definitely wrong. I need to escape. But as he was about to get up,
"Keith, there's no need for you to get up." "Yeah, just stay here and relax."
Aidiun and Sohma held him down! These two were actually doing that!
"..." No escape. Even if Keith got past them, he saw Carolyn and the others on the side, ready to jump him.
"What do you guys want to talk about?" Keith continued to have a calm expression, undisturbed. Well, he was extremely disturbed on the inside, sweating buckets.
Cadmus grinned, "A little kitten told me you have a way to increase the taste of meat.
"..." Keith glared at Herrick. That no kitten, that's a big dumb lion! While Keith glared at the lion, the others stared at him.
"Yes, I know a way to make it taste delicious." Keith wasn't going to deny it. With so many people gazing at him, it was too difficult to deny it. Once he said it,
"How are we going to do this?!" The excitement on Cadmus's face was amazing. The others glowed as well. Hearing Keith say it made it even perfect! When they heard it from Herrick and Alfia, they were baffled. Coming from Keith's mouth cemented it.
Keith raised his hand, "Hold it! When did I ever say I was going to do it?" There was something very wrong.
"What?! Are you really not going to?!" "Why not?!"
Cadmus and the others glared. Keith declared, "I really don't need to do it."
"Huh?"
"I'm not in a food-making mood."
"Demon!" "Devil!" "How could you do this to us?!"
This man was teasing them! Keith scoffed, "Hey, I never said I would do it."
"If you don't do this, I will tell on you!" Cadmus got some letters ready to send to his family!
Keith shrugged, "Go for it! I doubt they would care!"
"Evil!"
Keith laughed. But that caused Udine to tug on his shoulders, "Are you really not going to do anything about it?"
"Nah, I'm just messing with you guys."
"Hah?!"
"What, you really think I wouldn't?" Keith giggled. After hearing them ask like that, he decided to do it.
"Are you guys really going to annoy me every day if I don't do it?" Keith chuckled.
"..."
"What's with the silence?!" You guys were actually planning to do something like that?!
"Now, now. What do you need from us?!"
"Nothing. Actually, the only person I really need is Arlo." "Me?!" Arlo didn't think his name would be called out.
"Of course! I need you to build the thing!" "Okay!" Arlo pumped his fist as he was ready to get to work.
"It will probably take me a day to make it." Keith thought about it; the construction of it was simplistic enough.
"We just need to go to Dalen to get some materials."
"We'll do it!" Herrick and Melor raised their hands!
"Okay. Let me get the design done." Keith cracked his back as he was getting to work on designing. But as he returned to his room,
"YES!" What he could hear was the giant shouting that soon came afterward.
"..." Keith could only shake his head. There was nothing to say about this.
