Volume 6 Chapter 6: The Reason For Joining

Volume 6 Chapter 6: The Reason For Joining

Keith stretched his hands back and forth; that was a lot of paperwork. Even with the tea reinvigorating his body, it didn't stop him from getting tired. That was why Ange suggested,

"I know! How about we go somewhere tomorrow! It will be my treat!" Ange suggested.

Guess I will be doing this again. Keith sighed. But he was okay with it. As he headed to the gates, he spotted some elves along the way. And the group noticed him as well. 

"We need to talk to you."

"Hmm? What do you want to talk about?"

"We want to join your island!" The elves stated.

"You want to join my island?" Keith frowned. He thought he heard something wrong. 

"Yes," "Why do you want to-"

"We want to join your island as well!" The elves weren't alone, as beastmen and dwarves came from the other side. 

"Huh?! You dwarves can't join this island!" The elves scoffed.

"Why can't we?! You elves shouldn't be the ones joining." An argument ensued. When this happened, Keith scratched his head. He knew what to do next; escape! He quickly walked away from there before they had the chance to notice he had gone missing. 

"What is wrong with those people?" Keith shook his head as he quickly returned home.

"Welcome home, Keith!" "Po!" Fira and Mir quickly jumped at him. Keith caught the two, 

"Mmhmm, I'm back!"

"Keith, welcome home." Nephele greeted him as well.  

"Thank you." Keith headed to the backyard; there, he saw the rest. Melor and Herrick trained Arlo while Gabriel and Jack sparred with one another. As they practiced, the rest sipped on some tea.

Keith went to the fridge to get himself some juice. As he drank, "What are you guys reading?" He noticed the girls reading a book. 

"It's a romance between a princess and a noble."

"Eh? It's not about a princess and a commoner?" Wouldn't that be a better story?

"Nope. It feels unrealistic." There was an immeasurable gap between a commoner and a noble. 

"Yeah, a noble would be better." Alfia smiled.

"..." 

"Yes, the two had been friends for quite some time. However, the two had their own duties. As the princess, she had to be prim and proper. While the noble had to watch over his land."

"I see. What happened next?"

"We're at the good part! The princess had an arranged marriage to expand the kingdom! And her friend whisked her away during the marriage!" 

"How many volumes does it have?"

"7! It was such a great stopper!" Carolyn smiled.

"I see." Keith gazed at everyone's expression. Even Faelyn, the calm and cold type, was interested in something like that.  

"I heard they were going to do a play for this," Sarah commented. 

"Really?! Then we should go watch it together!" 

"Is that fine with you?"

"Of course! It's more fun when there are more people." They should do it together. Keith smiled as he watched how they acted. Guess I should prepare dinner.

...

While they ate food, Cadmus told Keith, "Keith, there's a lot of people who want to join your island." 

"Eh? How many?" "There's about 40."

"40?!" What in the world?! Why was there so many.

"Let me guess, it's beastmen, elves, and dwarves, right?" Keith questioned. 

"Yes," Cadmus nodded, "They all want to join your island. How did you know?"

"That's because some came and asked me," Herrick, Melor, and Alfia's eyes changed when they heard that. 

"What happened?" 

"Well, they waited for me by the gate and asked to join the island. And then they started an argument, so I left before I saw that." He didn't want to witness a bloodbath. 

"Those guys!" Alfia slammed her hands onto the table. 

"I can't believe they're bothering you now." Alfia and Faelyn were expected. However, their target now was Keith.

"Keith, you still have that damn poster on the bulletin board, right."

"I think I still have that." He kinda left it there and forgot. 

"For starters, you need to take that off," That poster was too eye-catching for everyone. That would cause people to continue to come. 

"Also, don't say yes to them."

"I know that." There was no way he was going to say yes.

"If they do, then say they have to get permission from any of us." They can't burden Keith and the others with something like this.  

"Understood,"

"You two are good with this, right?" Alfia turned to Melor and Herrick.

"Of course." "Yeah, I don't want my food to be cut."

"Eh?"

"You guys haven't thought about it? If we add more people on the island, that would mean our food would probably be cut down?" Herrick explained. How come no one thought about it?

"Come on, guys! You don't need to- What's the matter?" Keith noticed how everyone's expression changed from Herrick's words. 

"Our food might go down?"

"Now that you mentioned it," Everyone's thought had been unified at this moment, "We should have a good screening!"

"Yeah! We can't have a bunch of random people joining our island!"

"It's exclusive."

"Indeed! You cannot let any random people join! Those people don't understand the goodness of the food!" Cadmus roared. That was an oversight on his part!

"..." Your eyes are scary.
