Volume 6 Chapter 19: We need To Practice
After talking with Sakura briefly, she left as she needed to do some things. Before she left, she didn't forget to get thirds. Cedric asked, "Is that girl your girlfriend?"
"No. Just a senior I met with." Keith smiled.
"Good." "Eh?" What did he mean by good?
"Because that girl is an 11, and you're a 7 out of 10," Cedric smirked.
"..." Keith tilted his head, "Who's a 10 then?"
"You're looking at one,"
"Pff." "Hey! Don't you dare laugh! When I was your age, I was called one of the handsome five!"
"Handsome five?" Is that a band name? Keith shook his head as he continued to work. As he did,
"Keith, we're here!" Keith looked up, and his eyes widened. It was Herrick and Alfia. That was precisely why his mouth was slightly opened.
"Why did you guys come?!" Aren't you guys wearing those bracelets?!
"Of course, we have to come here! We need to get something to eat!" With Keith working, they wouldn't get lunch. So they needed to come here to get something.
"..." So good food is more important than your dignity? Well, that might only be the case for Herrick. Alfia was teetering between shame and hunger.
"You guys want your usual, right?" Keith asked.
"Mmhmm!" Behind the two were the others. Like that, Keith quickly got to work, But as he did,
"Wait a minute, are those kids living with you?" Cedric questioned.
"Yeah."
"Doesn't that mean they get to eat your food every day?" When that was said, the expression on every customer changed.
"Don't get me even started on what they eat at lunch!" Out of nowhere, Tennol started to talk!
"These kids get to eat like a banquet every day! It's so annoying!" He heard everything from Aidiun. Cadmus also added to that fire!
"Instructor Tennol?!" Alfia and the others were so confused! Why was this person saying this? But the other thing on their minds was how this man knew?!
"That Aidiun always comes with such a delicious lunch! How could I not be angry when he eats before us?!" Tennol scoffed. His annoyance meter was high.
Cedric and the other customers turned to them. The dark aura around their body was incredible.
"Ahh,"
"So lucky."
"To eat the boss's cooking every single day."
"...What do we do?" Alfia slightly tensed. The envy and jealousy were so thick someone could cut it.
"Hmpf! They're just jealous of us! The food Keith cooks in the mansion is so delicious!" Herrick grinned.
"..."
"..." Are you trying to kill us all?! If looks could kill, they would die ten times over.
"Guys, here is your order," Keith handed the food over to them. And like that, the group started eating, ignoring the envious stares. However, Melor and Gabriel turned to the two.
"Come on," "Don't you dare do anything stupid."
"What are the two of them wearing?" Cedric questioned. He noticed the weird movement Alfia and Herrick had.
"It's practice," Keith explained.
"Is this really practice?" It looked more like a show.
"It is," Tennol added, "But it's also punishment for failing an assignment."
"Don't tell me my granddaughter had to wear that," Cedric's eyes darkened. If his granddaughter had to wear that, he would go crazy.
"Relax, she passed the assignment, Cedric."
"Good."
...
The following day, Alfia had a dark expression. When she left her room, she spotted the person she disliked most.
"Why is the first thing I see is you?!"
"Same! I don't want to see you either!" It was only two days, but they were going to kill one another.
Walking was the only thing they could do. However, the rest was a different matter. They kept getting in the way of the other.
Alfia took a deep sigh, "Look. We're going to have to get along."
"Ugh." Just hearing the word "get along" made him gag.
Don't ugh me! Alfia was about to lose it before she explained, "You understand if we don't pass the second time, we might get stuck like this even longer."
"..." Herrick shut up. The thought of being next to her was something he didn't want.
"We need to create a plan to deal with it." Alfia decided. If they were going to battle the golem again, they needed to devise a plan.
"Alright. Let's practice outside." Herrick went outside. They might have to fight outside to get synergy. Diana was waiting outside,
"Do you guys need my help to practice?"
"Hmm?" "You can help us?"
"With this." Diana tapped on the ground, and a golem formed from the ground!
"You can do that?!" Herrick blinked as he stared at the golem.
"Of course I can." Diana smiled, "Now the two of you can practice to your heart's content."
