Volume 8 Chapter 19: He Returned?!

As the two talked about this,

"What is all of this?!" A louder sound came from the outside. Keith and Fira glance at one another. I should have expected this; it was not a surprise. The two exited the greenhouse to see Alfia and the others returning home,

"Yo!" That causal greeting only got a head slap from the elf.

"Don't try to "Yo," us! When did you have time to build these two houses?" They had gone to classes for a few hours only to return home to two literal houses! Just saying this sounded wrong!

"How long did it take you to build this, Keith?" Scarlet glanced at the houses.

"Uhh, I think about half a day." Keith had started once he had breakfast. So yeah, around half a day.

"…" Alfia and the others were speechless. Are you kidding me? It took you half a day to build something like this?! But why are we so shocked? Now that everyone had time to think about it, this was Keith. He was one crazy person. It was even more so when he wanted to do something.

"Dorm Mother Diana," Alfia glanced at Diana and the other dorm mothers. But Diana was also surprised, "Uh, I didn't even know he was doing something like that by himself."

"Keith is so funny." Nephele was laughing while Udine examined the houses, "You used my stones."

"Mmhmm. I thought it would be perfect to grow vegetables.

"Grow vegetables? It's not a house you live in?"

"No. This is to help grow vegetables at a specific temperature and humidity." Keith explained, "What Krystal said made me realize that specific fruits and vegetables will have a different taste depending on the temperature."

"You got all that when I said those mangos tasted different?!" Krystal was baffled. She only said it tasted different! So you make two houses from that one sentence?!

"..." Alfia and Scarlet felt they had lost a brain cell.

"You guys can go check it out if you want." Keith gestured. And that's when the others entered the greenhouse, "It's warm here!"

"Diana, I will leave you and Fira to this."

"Mmhmm." Diana nodded.

"Also, we need to work on the garden as well." Now that everyone was here, it was time to do it.

"…But we just had class." Everyone had returned from a long and harsh lecture.

"And you guys are going to have more exercise."

"Yippe!!!" Herrick and Melor waved their hands back and forth when they heard that. The others could only shake their heads. Only these two would be excited about this.

"Let's go!" Keith ignored their stares as he got outside. Alfia and the others could only sigh. They really had no say in this. Unless they didn't want food, then yeah...they had to do it.

"Can the two of you not go so fast?!" Scarlet roared as she watched how Herrick and Melor moved. The two were going supernova speed. Dirt was sent all over the place!

"We're going to get dirty either way! Look at Sarah and Krystal; the two are going crazy." Those two girls were in charge of putting seeds into the ground. They went at a great pace. Going down and into the dirt, the two girls were covered.

"..." Scarlet took a deep sigh and continued forward.

"If you guys want something to eat, you guys have to do more!" Keith shouted. The faster they move, the faster they get everything done.

"…Understood."

...

"Grrrr."

"Is the ground shaking?"

"What's going on?"

"Who do you think is doing this?" Shire scoffed as he pointed at the office. The cause was coming from there.

"You're going to break the academy if you keep going on like this." Sohma sighed as he noticed his legs going up and down like a crazed engine.

"…I haven't eaten his food." Cadmus gritted his teeth. These last few weeks were Cadmus without food. Well, delicious food.

"It's your fault for always trying to find flaws." Sohma sighed. This was definitely entirely Cadmus's fault. He had to critique every single thing the spirit had made.

"What? She said to tell her if anything needs to be changed." That was her fault for telling them to critique her food!

"But to say that she shouldn't use any eggs?" Sohma commented. An omelet needed eggs. That was the tipping point.

"Not when she used 70% vegetables." Those vegetables were used more than the eggs! How could that be called an omelet?!

"Hah," Sohma sighed. This guy is going to get buried. What made it worse was that he had to watch over him, so he couldn't go there!

"When will he return?" Once Keith returned, everything would be fine!

"How is Keith this good?" Tennol took a deep sigh as he laughed when he entered the office.

"Wasn't he gone for the last few days?"

"What?!" Cadmus appeared before him and grabbed his shoulders, "The kid has returned?!"

"Yeah!" Tennol nodded,

"Why didn't you tell me?!"

"You were moping inside your room. No one could have gone inside!" The dark aura that was going on forbade everyone from entering.

"…" Cadmus didn't even care as he dashed off without a thought!

"…" Tennol and the others stared at one another, "Are you sure we should let him go like that?" Wouldn't Keith be in trouble?

"He'll be fine...I think." Actually, I should follow him. Sohma took a deep sigh as he went after him.
