Volume 14 Chapter 4: 

The next day, Keith raised his hand into the air as he was ready to leave with the others. But when he was about to, he patted Eri on the head, “Remember to be careful and listen to dorm mother Diana, okay.” 

“Mmhmm.”

“Keith, you’re being too much of a worrywart. As long as Diana is there, you don’t need to worry.” Alfia shook her head. Diana was a great protector that would beat anyone who tried to cause problems. 

Keith sighed, “I know, but I'm still worried about her.” That was not something he could do. Eri was jumping into a new environment. He could tell she was still wary of her surroundings even if she didn't say it. At least she opened up to Fira and the smaller creatures. It may be because they were young; Eri and Lei were the closest to one another.

Mir acted like the big brother in this situation. 

"..." Such a dotting father. Carolyn and the others shook their heads at how he acted. However, it worked for him. 

“Good morning, Keith!” Muriel and the others greeted him with a smile. Keith sighed, “Good morning to you guys as well.” Long Lihua tilted her head, “What’s the matter with the greeting, superstar?” 

“Please don’t call me that.” It was getting embarrassing now. But the dragon woman continued to laugh, “Haha, aww, is someone so cute?” 

“…Don’t make me call Grandma Yueying on you.” He got that woman on speed dial, and it would be something. He knew how brutal Long Yueying was in training for this dragon girl. 

“Hey! Why are you bringing the ancestor into this?” But then she realized, "There's no-" How was this possible? There was no way Long Yueying could instantly come here! 

"She's right behind you." 

"!" Long Lihua jolted upwards and quickly turned her head to see no one there. Quickly glancing backward, he saw with a grin. 

"Keith!"

“That’s what I thought.” He sat down, and that was when Ayaka questioned, “You didn’t bring the girl with you?” 

“Hmm? Eri? I don’t think it would be good.” 

“…I see.” “You’ve been acting really odd.” Keith blinked. This was one of the weirdest things happening: Ayaka had been staring at Eri for quite some time. 

This was weird since it was her, as she was super aloof…Well, even more aloof than before. Keith could only shake his head as class started. But when this happened. 

"Hah," Keith looked over to see the lion sighing as he stared at the board. 

Magic class. That was when Keith and the others were going to be sparring with one another. However, Keith wasn't focused on that. He was sitting by himself and started to focus on his water magic. He had taken a deep breath as he continued to channel his water magic. While he was doing that, I needed to think of a way to use water magic. That was something he was going to do. What is water magic?

“Hah.”

“Keith! There’s a giant water bubble on top of your head!” The others pointed as they saw a giant ball of water floating on top of him. Before, they just said something that caused

Pop. The water ball popped, and it splashed on everyone! “Keith!” “Dude!” Keith scratched his head, “Sorry about that. I didn’t control my mana.”

“You idiot!” Keith was getting yelled at, but that was when the girls dashed out while some boys kept shaking their heads. But that was when the others were going to get him.

…

“Come on, guys. I said I was sorry.” Keith scratched his head while the others were going to do so. There were towels on their faces. Long Lihua’s eyes narrowed, “Are you kidding me? Why did you make such a big thing?” “I was lost in thought.” His mind was traced off as he thought about it.

“….What would happen if it was fire magic?’ That was something they all didn’t want to find out. 

Just the thought was enough to cause  him to go crazy as well. It would have burned all of them. Herrick crunched his knuckles, “Don’t you think we should do something like that?” It was going to be a dangerous fight between the two of them. 

However, that was Keith raised his hand,  “Are you guys going to attack me when I have this here?” He had raised his lunchbox…if anything was going to happen to him, it would be a problem. Herrick and Melor instantly died down, “We forgive you!”

 “Alright, let’s get some food.” Food would always change everything. Long Lihua opened it up, “What’s inside it?”

“In one box, you have some meat and other assortments. And the last one, you have a potato assortment.” That was something that they were all curious by. They started to eat the potato dishes as if there was nothing wrong at all. But as they were savoring the taste, that was enough to cause them to grin back and forth.

“Keith, you really are going to make it so delicious!” That was something they couldn’t believe at all. The others were doing the same thing as well. But while they were doing this, that was when Keith muttered, “These days are the best.”
