Volume 7 Chapter 42: Did You Have To Call Them?

"Alright! Now that we have our materials, it's time to work! The first thing we need to do is make the base!" Keith got straight to the point. Dalen and the dwarves had dropped off the materials on his island.

What lay before everyone was a giant hole.

"Umm, Keith. Shouldn't you explain something first before we start?" Alfia commented. There was something different with today; a few more heads were here.

"Since this is a really big project, I thought we needed an extra pair of hands."

"..." Sure, asking for more people was the right move. However,

DID YOU HAVE TO CALL THEM?!

The student council president and disciplinary committee captain were here on the island!

"I can't believe you are asking me to do this." Angelica chuckled. It was such a dry chuckle, displaying her disbelief. Keith shrugged, "You owe me one for all that work." It was time to pay up.

"..."

Sakura had a thousand-yard stare. She was dragged along because of her.

"What should we be doing for the base?"

"The key thing about this is it should be flat and smooth. That way, when we place the marble on top, we can push it down, and it will stick."

"Understood." "How do we start?"

"For starters, we mix the cement and dirt to make a rough paste. Can I leave this to you and Alfia, Senior Ange?"

"On it. You will make the sphere while I add the cement into it." Angelica suggested.

This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.

"Understood, Senior." Alfia nodded. Like that, the two girls made their move as they quickly moved their thing. Slowly, it twirled together.

"Alright, I will add the stones and water in as well. Herrick tossed in the pebble." While Keith splashed water into the sphere, Herrick and the others hurled the stones in. Slowly, the sphere turned into a dark grey substance.

"Please place it right over here."

"Understood." The two dropped it down into the hole.

"What's next?"

"Wear these." What Keith brought out for them were some worker's clothes.

"...Are you sure we should wear these?" These clothes looked really clunky.

"If you want to ruin your clothes, you don't have to wear them." Keith chuckled. Besides the materials, he had also requested some work clothes for everyone. Things were about to get dirty.

Alfia and the girls were still a little off.

"Come now, guys. Nephele and Udine are wearing it." Keith pointed at Nephele and Udine. Those two already wore them instantly.

"Hah," They sighed deeply as they wore the outfits. They even had boots as well.

"Alright, the next thing we need to do is to level the thing. I had already marked the height I want it. So we can just level it ourselves." He handed the tools over to them.

"Let's go!"

"When you asked for our help, I didn't think it would be like this." Angelica laughed as she leveled it. How could this guy ask her to do something like this?!

"You did say I can ask you whenever you have the time." Keith grinned.

"…" Angelica wanted to cry, and so did Sakura. She was caught in the crossfire. She only wanted to relax in the garden but saw the two discussing something. But as they were doing this,

"Good work, guys! Keep it up!" Cadmus continued to shout out from the side.

"Keith, I've been meaning to ask."

"Yes, the principal always stays here." Keith explained, "And he should be helping us out!" That dragon was sitting on the sideline, watching them work.

"You should get in here!" Aidiun added with a loud shout. Sohma's eyes darkened, "Are you kidding me?" These two were helping out while that dragon was outside.

"And mess my shirt up! Who are you kidding?"

"If you don't want your clothing to be dirty, then get dressed. I got your outfit!" Without any hesitation, Keith kicked the guy off the chair.

"…" Angelica and Sakura could only stare; their eyes widened in dumbfoundedness.

"Umm, is that supposed to happen?"

"Oh, that's another Tuesday," Alfia explained.

"It's a norm." Everyone nodded as they watched Keith force Cadmus to get dressed.

"How could you do this to your principal?!" Cadmus sniffed as he was forced to change.

"I don't care. Now get to work, you mooch!" Keith ignored one crying dragon as he continued to work.

"Don't you think this would be great training?" Herrick muttered as he felt his legs stuck to the ground.

"Stop messing around," Alfia scolded. But when she did,

Splat. Her face went straight into the ground.

"Princess?!" Faelyn tried to move forward, but she fell straight into the cement as well!

"It's so difficult to move!" Alfia muttered as she pulled her face up, covered in cement. Keith could only shake his head as he continued to work.
