Volume 3.5 Chapter 44:

Keith Freed lost to Krystal Rustchil!

That alone was enough to cause everyone to go crazy! And the rumors were getting out of hand as well.

"I heard Krystal beat Keith with one hand!"

"That's crazy!"

"How could he lose like this?"

Hearing all of this, Carolyn grabbed her head. What is up with these rumors. There was no way those rumors were true. Anyone could tell that the students were exaggerating it.

But said person in the rumor wasn't even focused on it. What Keith was focused on was the design of his cart! He and Arlo stared at one of the blueprints he designed.

"Leader is incredible! This design is interesting!" Arlo couldn't help but marvel at the design.

"Thanks. But do you think we can build this?" Keith questioned. That was what he was concerned about.

"Sure. I think we can finish it in two days if we put our minds to it," Arlo commented. Arlo wasn't acting so formal around Keith and Gabriel anymore. He was one of them.

After talking to him for some time, he had gotten used to it. Well, the only thing that hadn't changed was the leader thing. But Keith accepted it.

"But what are you going to do with the burner?" Arlo questioned. From the blueprints, he couldn't see the burner.

"I was thinking about putting a fire crystal on the bottom. That way, I can switch up the things on top when I had the chance,"

"I see,"

"And I think we can start when we get home! Dalen said I can use some of the materials," Keith smiled. Dalen practically threw the materials at him. He had everything ready.

"That's great!" Arlo smiled.

"Those two really don't care about anything going around them," Tristan sighed. Those two were in their own world.

"It's a normal day,"

....

"Wow! There's a lot of materials," Arlo marveled at the wood Skar and the other dwarves brought.

Skar nodded, "Boss said you can use this wood,"

"Let's get to work!" It was time for the two of them to work. While they did that, Skar and the other dwarves worked on the mansion.

Arlo nodded!

"Keith, do you need our help?" Fira and Mir jumped on Keith. But Keith shook his head,

"There's no need. I want you guys to tend to the garden." This was a safety hazard.

"What do we start with first, Leader?" Arlo questioned.

"We'll make the base first." Keith smiled. The two were in overdrive as they worked. But because of this,

"Keith isn't in class again,"

"Did losing to Krystal affect him that bad?"

"That kid is also a Bradley."

The students started to murmur. This was the second day Keith missed class.

"Where is Keith right now?" Carolyn nudged Gabriel. This guy lived on the same island as him.

"He's working on the cart right now," Gabriel had dark circles under his eyes as he stated.

"What happened to you?"

"Well, besides Keith and Arlo working day and night on the cart, the dwarves are working on the mansion as well. I can't get a good night's sleep." Gabriel yawned.

Do they not need sleep? Gabriel questioned in his mind. When he looked out the window, he saw the dwarves still hard at work! That was something.

"..." Forget I said anything.

"Also, he told me to give you this," Gabriel handed a box to Carolyn,

"Hmm?"

"Keith was worried that you would be hungry. He told me to hand you this," Before Gabriel left, Keith handed two lunchboxes to him.

"..." A smile formed on Carolyn's face.

"Everyone!" Carolyn and Gabriel turned their heads. The person who screamed out was the prince of the mermaid kingdom, Chelan. A dark expression formed on his face.

"I think everyone has enough of this farce!"

"What do you mean?" Scarlet questioned.

"I think we need to change the class representative," Chelan stated.

"And you want that spot?" The class narrowed their eyes at him. Anyone could tell he wanted it.

"Of course, I want to be the representative," Chelan answered. The atmosphere became even deadlier.

"But I really don't care if it's another student. It just can't be Keith. People are saying that our year is the worst one. And that's because of him!" He could hear it all.

Others were mocking them because of Keith.

"That's why I want to strip him of the title! I want you all to be together with me when we deal with this."

"I'm down," Herrick answered first.

"Since he's in, I'm in," Melor laughed. One by one, the students started to agree.

"What about you, Princess Carolyn?" The entire class turned to Carolyn. Everyone knew about the close relationship the two had.

But the latter shrugged, "I don't really care."

"What about you?"

"Same," Gabriel shook his head.

Carolyn and Gabriel shared a look with one another.

I don't think you guys even realize how much Keith cares about the position? This man had zero idea and zero care about this.
