Keith and Clara went back into the hall and saw that people were getting ready to leave. It was the sa with Alia, but Keith noticed that the trio were nowhere to be seen.
'I made sure that those assassins don't attack so where in the hell did these three disappear off to?' he mused as he checked his system, only to see that all three of them had the sa idea as him and were currently engaging in snu snu activities.
He walked over to Arthur and Alia before joining them to go back ho.
"Where are the others?" Alia asked as she looked around.
Keith shrugged, "Who knows. They probably got tired and went back ho or... well, you know the things that are common in events like these."
"Ah.. I see." Alia said and moved closer to him, "I'm feeling a little tired. Carry ."
"Go ask your brother..." Keith said as he glanced at Adrian who was on the other side of Arthur but to his surprise, he saw Arthur frowning at him.
'Ah... does he actually want to carry her?' he thought as he felt like crying.
He silently looked at Alia who now looked disgruntled and sighed, 'So tis, it's better to not know what people are thinking.'
Keith quickly poured over his system screen that showed him the thoughts of Arthur and realized that the man had decided to support his daughter when it ca to her selection for a partner.
He sighed inwardly and lifted her up in an instant, catching her by surprise. Keith did not look at her face and simply walked forward while she lted in his embrace.
Clara watched Keith give Alia a princess carry treatnt and even though she felt a slight jealousy, the happiness in her heart overpowered the negative emotion.
Adrian was caught by surprise but a wide grin appeared on his face once he absorbed the scene in front of him.
As for Arthur, he didn't say a thing or show any kind of emotion as he walked behind Keith.
The group got back ho and Keith finally looked down at Alia who was now acting like she was asleep. The urge to ss with her was strong, but he fought against his instincts and went along with her acting as he carried her to her room and placed her on the bed.
Alia felt the absence of his touch and hastily rolled around on her bed.
'Let's see how you respond... if you reject now, I don't think I'll ever be able to muster up the confidence to tell you about my feeling.' she thought as she felt her eyes tearing up.
"I... want you, Keith. I... want..."
Keith silently stared at her, knowing that she was just acting like she was sleeping.
He stood still, unable to decide on what to say. A part of him wanted her to accept herself, to tell him about her feelings while she believed that she wasn't his type.
Another part of him wanted to tell her that he liked her too, but before he could decide, his emotions took over.
"What a coward." he said and walked out of the room, leaving her alone.
Alia imdiately opened her eyes and tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Coward huh..." she muttered, "Did he know that I was awake? Or does he want to tell it to him while properly? Ugh! Stop confusing ...."
She then grabbed a pillow and buried her face in it while Keith silently walked back to the room that he was supposed to share with Clara.
Miya and Clara were both in their pajamas, ready to sleep.
"Yeah, let's go to bed." he said as he took off his shirt and put on an old loose shirt instead.
He then grabbed a pair of pants and looked at the two, "Close your eyes Miya."
"Okay" she said and dived under the blanket.
Keith then put on his pants and joined the two on the bed before he closed his eyes. He felt tired, but he had other things to to at this mont.
He took a look at his spatial dinsion and saw Gerald sitting on the ground while ten corpses were scattered around him.
'Alright, looks like he's made up his mind.' Keith thought as he began to make so minor preparations.
Gerald silently sat and waited for the voice. As ti passed, he grew slightly anxious but all of a sudden, he heard the voice again.
"I will save your daughter. But you'll have to tell her to work under Keith. As for what kind of work he'll give her, I will not interfere. In return, you will be his sword."
"As you wish, oh great god." Gerald said and just when he thought that he would be ignored once again, the voice resounded in his head.
"Get so rest. Your daughter will join you soon."
As Keith saw him walk into the hut, he shifted his attention to Zander who was playing with four naked won in his bedroom.
"Well, ti to give you a gift, Zander." Keith muttered as he glanced at the ten dead bodies and made them disappear. Your adventure continues at empire
With his system inside Zander as the teleport point, he spent so of his ntal energy and made the dead bodies appear close to the second prince.
This caught him by surprise and the girls scread as they saw lifeless bodies fall onto the floor out of nowhere.
Zander stared at the dead bodies in shock, not reacting to the screams of the won near him.
That was until a letter appeared right in front of him. It fell on the mattress, right in front of him and he slowly picked it up before he began to read the contents of the letter.
Hi Zander, sorry for the sudden ssage but.... I just wanted to tell you one thing.
This is just the beginning. I'll make sure that you'll suffer more.
