Volume 3.5 Chapter 56: Duel
The sword never landed on Todd. That was because Cadmus and the two arrived. Cadmus was holding onto Keith's sword. He was doing it with his fingers!
"The principal has come to save us!"
"We're saved!"
The students screamed in relief and salvation. With the principal here, there was no way Keith would dare to cause more trouble.
Contrary to what they thought,
"Grandpa Cadmus. Move out of the way. I don't care if it's you. But I'm going to cut this fool down." Keith continued to push his sword forward. It was between Cadmus's fingers.
"..." The students stared at him in shock! How could he say something like that?! In front of the principal, no less!
Cadmus blinked a few times when he heard that. And so did Sohma and Aidiun. This was a surprise for them.
Keith wasn't the type to say something like that. He may be aloof, but he knew time, place, and occasion.
"Let's calm down. I will hear you out before you go on your rampage." Cadmus reasoned.
"I know you're angry. But you shouldn't take it out on everyone else,"
Keith's actions destroyed half of the mansion. And Keith could probably blow the whole thing up if he kept going!
"...Fine," Keith sheathed his sword. But his gaze was cold. His eyes never left Todd.
Cadmus sighed. At least he isn't blowing things up. He knew this was the best he would get out of Keith. He turned to Todd,
"You're coming with me. You have a lot of explaining to do," Since Keith was so pissed off, this guy had to do something egregious.
"I-" Todd didn't know what to say. Cadmus was much different from Keith. If Keith was like a tiger rushing at him with all his force, Cadmus is a predator, waiting for the moment the other would flip out. It was imposing.
Like that, everyone was brought back to his office.
"Can anyone explain to me what happened?" Cadmus questioned. He was out of the loop about everything that occurred. It was too sudden for his brain to process.
"Principal! I demand justice!" Todd was the first to speak as he got up from his seat. He pointed at Keith, "This guy here rushed into my island and started to attack people! He wanted to kill me as well! I did nothing to deserve this!"
"Heh, you did nothing at all? That's hilarious," Keith scoffed at him when he heard that. But that caused Todd to frown,
"What are you talking about?"
"How about how you blackmailed my friend into burning my cart down?" Keith glared at him! That was not nothing!
"!" Todd's expression changed.
"Do you think I wouldn't figure out what you did?" How naive could he be?
"What?" Cadmus's expression turned dark when he heard that. He was the cause of the cart's destruction?
Todd's expression turned red, "You have no proof that Jack followed my orders!"
"..." The way you said it makes you have an ulterior motive. Keith looked at Cadmus and the others, who had dark expressions. Of course, they would catch onto something like that.
"Keith, are you sure he said something about this?"
"Mmhmm. Also, you can make Todd go through those lie detection orbs," That was the best way to figure out whether or not Todd did it.
"!" Todd's expression paled when he heard that.
"That is one way to find out," Cadmus nodded as he stared at Todd.
"So? You can't do anything to me! This is between my family and the Baron's family! This had nothing to do with the academy!"
Cadmus frowned. What Todd said did make sense as well. Even if they were suppressing the other, this was between nobles and not by the academy. The most he could do was put him on suspension or expel him.
"Then I challenge you to a duel," Keith stated with a dark expression. Everyone's expressions changed when they heard that.
