Volume 15 Chapter 5: Heading To The Demon Kingdom
Keith and the others returned home after informing the customers of the break. Yet, as they walked, the two workers stared at Keith. They had taken a few steps away from him. Eri and the others were held in Nephele's arms as they stared with their round eyes.
However, he was unfazed.
"This is not my fault, okay? It's yours." One princess glared at him so deeply, stabbing into his chest. Carolyn pinched his side, "You didn't have to blurt out those jars. How could you do this to your fiancee?!"
"Are you really adding fiancee into this?" Keith grabbed her by the head as he squeezed. Muriel quickly covered Eri's eyes, not allowing her to see such a goofy sight.
Carolyn flayed her arms around like a fool, "Because of you, I lost my jars!" Thalia and Julius hounded her down and took the rest of the jam she hid.
"That's because you tried to hide it against them." Julius, he would understand. But for Thalia, it was wrong. Plus, wasn't it supposed to be for them?
"That's because mama loves jam too much!" Thalia was an avid eater and enjoyer of fruits and sweets. There was no way she was going to give it up.
"Plus, she already has those jams from you! Why did she have to take mine!" She got extra!
"..." This was true.
"Why do you always hold my head up like that? Aren't you afraid my head will crack?"
"It's fine, you can survive." Since he had done it so many times, there was no need to worry about it.
"Hehe, then you're fine with me?" Carolyn stuck close to Keith before turning to Eri, "Eri, you got to find a man like this when you grow-Ep!"
"Eri, close your eyes and count to ten." The child did just that as Keith grasped her head; it was like crushing an apple.
Later in the day, Keith turned to Eri, “Eri, have you packed everything you need?” These days, he told the fox girl to pack up her items. She didn't need too much as Keith had everything.
“Mmhmm.” Eri nodded as she calmly packed all of her things. Finishing up, “Keith, can I come in.”
“Yeah.” Keith chuckled, “There’s no need for you to act shy.” Scarlet would enter his room whenever she wanted. She was not the only one: Carolyn, Scarlet, and Alfia. At this point, there was no need to stop them, as it would have been more of an issue if he hadn't. Scarlet entered the room,
“Keith, can I ask for your help?”
“Hmm? What’s the matter?”
“Well, can you come to my kingdom instead of returning home?”
“Eh?” To go to your kingdom? There was something he never expected coming from him. But that was when Scarlet explained, “Well, don’t you think you should go out and get something new?” There was something he was happening.
“Sure.” Keith nodded and patted her head, “I can head to the demon kingdom.”
“Really?”
“Of course! What are friends for!” Keith grinned, ”Ahh, Eri. Do you want to come with us?”
“Mmmhmm!” The fox girl waved her hand. Wherever Keith went, she would follow.
“Okay!” Keith smiled at him, “Then I’ll inform my parents about what happened.” Since he couldn’t go back there, they would need to do so. Scarlet smiled, “Thank you so much about this, Keith.”
“It’s fine.” Keith waved his hand.
…
“What?! You’re not going to be coming with me?!” Carolyn was taken aback as she stared at Keith. This was news to her! He was supposed to come with her home. However, he just said he wasn't going to now. Keith scratched his head, “I’ll be leaving later. I have something I need to do.”
“Then I can wait for you as well.” Carolyn wanted to go home with him. But Keith shook his head, “I think Aunty and Uncle are waiting for you. Now go.” Keith rubbed her head. However, that only caused Carolyn to frown as she hugged Eri, “I’m going to miss you so much.”
“Miss you too.” Eri gradually grew accustomed to the hug. And that was when the others slowly bombarded her as well. Herrick rubbed her head, “When I get back, I’ll get some good meat from my kingdom!”
“Be good and follow Keith’s words as well.”
“Mmhmm!” Eri nodded as the group slowly walked away from there. But Alfia gave one final look, “Why aren’t you leaving?”
“Because I need something else to do.” Scarlet rolled her eyes. Once they had left, Keith tilted his head, “You sure it was a good idea not to tell the others about this?”
“Mmhmm, I don’t want them to worry.” Scarlet shook her head. If she had mentioned anything about it, then it would have caused some sort of issue. Keith smiled, “Alright, let’s pack up some things.” It was time for them to head over there as well.
What do you think?
