Volume 5 Chapter 2: A Greeting Is An Order

These guys are too much of a worrywart. Keith sighed as he sat in his bed.

"Po!" Mir came up and stayed beside him. Keith smiled as he patted the snowball's head, "I know. I know. They care about my well-being."

After dinner, Gabriel and the rest insisted that Keith go rest. Even if he was alright with cooking dinner, they should at least wash the dishes. They pushed him out of the kitchen before he could say anything. As he was ready to go to sleep. 

Keith.

Keith opened his eyes. Diana?

Mmhmm, it's me. 

Where are you right now?

Can you come to my location?

Sure. Keith got up from his bed and got dressed. 

"Po?" Mir tilted his head as Keith got dressed. Patting his head, "Don't worry about it. I'm going to meet with Diana."

"Po!" But Mir jumped up and down. There was no way he could let Keith leave like that!

"You can come with me," Keith laughed. 

"Po!" And the snowball agreed like that! He jumped onto Keith's shoulders. 

Keith sensed where Diana was. The position she was in was close. Diana, I'm going to teleport to you. The gates were closed. 

Understood. 

Like that, Keith and Mir started to glow as they disappeared from his room. And the two arrived at the forest.

"Keith," The first thing he saw was Diana. 

"Diana, are you alright?" Keith was worried. 

Diana made a strange expression, "I should be asking you that! You almost died." His injuries were deadly

"I should be fine in a few days." Keith waved his hand, "What have you been doing?"

When Keith said this, Diana's expression contorted as she muttered, "This is all my fault."

"Eh?"

"Sister, this is my fault. This has nothing to do with you." Another voice cut into their conversation. Keith turned around. His eyes widened, "Aren't you-"

"Yes, I am the one who attacked you." The person scratched her head, embarrassed to say this. 

"Umm-" Keith had no words to say. The person introduced herself, "A greeting is an order. I'm the great spirit of the wind, Nephele."

A great spirit? Keith turned to Diana, and the latter nodded. This was indeed another great spirit. 

"Why did you attack me?" That was something he needed an explanation about. 

Nephele's expression turned wry as she explained, "That was an oversight on my part."

"I know that." That was definitely her fault, "But why did you attack me?"

"That was because I was trying to find my sister."

"Your sister?"

"Big sister Diana," Nephele answered. 

"Oh,"

"You see, I have been searching for my big sister for quite some time now. But I couldn't find her anywhere. But I felt her mana in that direction." Nephele pointed somewhere.

"Ahh, that time." It has to be that. The place she pointed to was where Diana dealt with the wyverns. 

"Big sister was the only one who could deal with those wyverns so easily!"

"..." Keith stared at Diana, and the latter looked away, not wanting to meet the child's gaze. 

"I thought you had taken my sister away. There was a large chunk of her mana on you."

"Ah, from the contract."

"I didn't think it was a life and death contract." Nephele was sweating like no tomorrow, "I dodged a bullet right there!" If Keith died, her big sister died along with him.

"Dodge a bullet in my butt!" Diana slapped Nephele's head, "How dare you harm my benefactor?! You would have killed him if we didn't jump in!" Diana had noticed something was off. Keith's life force dimmed. It meant he was close to death. She didn't hesitate to teleport to his side when she realized this.  

"I said I was sorry! And those other creatures were so scary!" Just remembering the others was enough to cause Nephele to shake in her boots. 

"Do you understand the consequences?" Diana didn't want to let this go.

Keith raised his hand, "It's fine, Diana. She apologized. That's good enough." Hearing Nephele's explanation, he found it somewhat understandable. 

"My saint!" Nephele placed her hands together as she bowed her head to this saint. How could someone be so kind?! 

"..." Diana gave her a dirty look. But since Keith said something, there was no point in continuing.

"Diana, when are you going to return home?"

Diana had an apologetic look, "Keith, I still need to do some things before I return."

"There's no need to apologize. Please take this." Keith brought up a lunchbox.

"You didn't have to." Diana's expression softened when she saw this.  

"It's fine. I know you didn't eat anything today. I also added some orc lord into it to help you out." Keith knew the orc lord was the best thing to help Diana's body. 

"Thank you." Diana smiled softly. Like that, Keith disappeared from there. 

"That kid is interesting," Nephele muttered. Now that she had a good look at Keith, the person didn't seem so bad. 

"Shut it." Diana grabbed her ears, "I'm still going to punish you for all the trouble you caused." 

"Sister! You're going to rip my ears off!" Nephele cried. Diana let go as she looked at the food in her hand.

"I'm hungry." There was nothing else to do after scolding. But that caused Nephele to frown,

"Do you need to?" Spirits didn't need to eat. What they needed was a rich amount of mana. 

"Hmpf! Then I won't give you any." Diana looked away from her as she opened the case. And when she did, Nephele's expression changed.  

She had never smelled something so aromatic before. 

Diana looked down at the cottage pie. He added my favorite oranges. That child. She could tell how much effort Keith had put into her lunch.

"Big sister."

"No."

"Don't be so stingy."

"You're the one who said you didn't want any."

"Sister!"

"Hmpf!" Diana cared less as she started to eat.
