Volume 6 Chapter 77: In Heaven Right Now
Keith stretched his hands into the air as he took a deep sigh. Today is the day; it was time to head to the dungeon. He stared down at the snowball and spirit sleeping.
"Aria, take care of them." Keith turned to Aria. The latter flew onto his shoulders and nestled his face. This caused Keith to sigh, "I'm sorry. But I can't summon you in front of so many people." Well, he could. But he chose not to do it for now. It would be a little surprising for the others if he did.
"Hoo." "If there's any trouble, I will summon you immediately." With that said, the owl flew back to her stand. Keith nodded as he headed for the guild. When he arrived, he saw Madison working at the counter.
"Madison, am I the first to arrive?" Looking around, he noticed Titus and the other parties had yet to arrive.
"Titus is talking with the vice-guildmaster about some things. He will come down in a few minutes."
"Understood." Keith nodded and was going to sit on a bench and wait.
"Keith," "Hmm? What's the matter?" As Keith stared at Madison, he noticed how she was fidgeting around. It was weird since Madison wasn't the type to do it. But since it was her, it was cute.
"Here," After a few seconds of fidgeting around, she raised something up.
"Hmm? A pendant?" A tiny little pendant was in her hand. Madison explained, "I'm giving this to you. It's a good luck charm to keep you safe on your expedition."
"Oh,"
"I know it might be tacky. And you should be safe out there with them around." Madison started to ramble as her cheeks turned red.

"No, I love it. Thank you." Keith smiled as he took the pendant. He tied it around his waist, "With this, I feel like I can take down 10 monsters in one go!"
"Don't charge in recklessly," Madison warned.
"I won't. Thank you so much, Madison." He was grateful for the gift. He talked with Madison for some time before the other parties arrived. The first one was White Lily. Morgan entered the guild and noticed his presence,
"Keith, are you the first one to arrive?"
"Mr.Titus's party is here. I'm the second one." Keith scratched. You guys are dressed to fight. All of their gear was top-notch, from what he could tell. Morgan was dressed in a sky blue robe as she held onto a staff.
"Keith, why did you come here so early in the morning?" A resounding voice called out from Morgan's party. The person had tanned skin. The woman sat beside Keith and got really close. Madison frowned, "Shakti, please be more mindful."
"Come now! There's no need to be such a spoiled sport. Or are you really that jealous?" A devious grin formed on Shakti's face as she stared at Madison.
And that caused the woman to glare daggers. Am I in danger? Keith thought to himself. He was sitting between the two of them. So Madison's glare was going through him first to Shakti!
He changed the subject as he asked, "Ms.Shakti, are you fine with wearing so little?" What made her eye-catching was how she was dressed. Unlike the rest of the girls who were geared up, Shakti wore some revealing clothes.
"Just call me Shakti." Shakti pouted as she answered, "I'm fine like this. Armor is just going to get in my way. But what's with the armor you're wearing?" It was her turn to question him.
"Hmm?" "I thought for sure you would wear some flashy armor instead."
Keith scratched his head, "I don't like flashy things. As long as the armor works fine, then I'm good."
"Aww, Just the cutest!" Shakti didn't hesitate as she hugged Keith's head, slamming his face into her ample bosom.
"Shakti! Don't do that!" Madison grabbed Keith's hand, wanting to pull him out of there. Shakti tilted her head, "But he's fine with this, am I right?"
"..." No response.
"See,"
"What is going on over here?" Keith turned his head to see Groa and his party coming over. He quickly got up from his seat and headed for him. But he noticed something off.
"Groa, what's with the look?" The bearman was giving him a weird look.
"You got flowers in each arm. You lucky dog!"
