Volume 11 Chapter 7: Returning To The Academy
Late at night,
Cadmus and the other two started to make their move. The man had teleported into the cave where Keith and the others were. Inside were the five serpents. However, they were nothing compared to the size they had before.
"Even after all of that, they're still not dead," Long Yueying sighed. These creatures feed on earth. They would not go down if there were earth and fire. They were only in hibernation after being defeated.
"But they're going to be now," Cadmus raised his hand. One move was enough as a giant black orb appeared and ate all five of them! Pure obliteration with the flick of his hand!
"When did you learn how to do that?" They had never witnessed him use such destructive magic.
"It's something that I've been working on." Cadmus came in prepared. It was one of the things he had been working on over these years.
"..." Long Yueying and Yukiko couldn't ask. Creating magic was his forte.
"What's the matter, Yueying?" He noticed the dark expression on the woman's face.
"Keith said that he had faced off against one before." And this was the hole where these serpents came out. But the sixth serpent wasn't there at all.
"It was taken away."
"This is becoming even more abnormal by the second." Cadmus could only groan. That also causes the girls to worry for a few seconds. One serpent not being here was quite troublesome.
"By the way, do you know what is happening with the child?"
"Eh?"
"That child isn't something normal," Long Yueying felt it. It was not normal; how Keith fought was not ordinary. By human standards, it was definitely on the high side.
"His body is similar to our constitution. Also, he could use ice magic as well."
"And the mana he's able to wield," Yukiko muttered.
"Ahh, that, yeah, you don't need to worry about that." Cadmus scratched his head, "He's normal and not normal simultaneously."
...
"Do you guys have everything on you now?" "Mmhmm," Keith nodded. It was time for the four of them to return to the academy. They had been gone for so long. Now, it was time for them to return to the academy. And there was no need to take the boat as well since they had Cadmus here.
Instant teleportation.
"What's the matter, Long Hao?" They noticed the little fella had made a weird expression on his face. But that caused the boy to look up, "Can we play together soon?"
"Of course we can. I'll come visit whenever we can," Keith grinned as he patted the boy on the head. Fira did the same as she patted him. While Keith worked on getting the situation done, Fira was there to play with him. Fira and Ruby became great friends with the child.
"Mmhmm,"
"Let's go now!" Cadmus stated. That was when Yukiko and Long Yueying added, "We'll get to you once everything in the city has settled." They wanted to live with the dragon as much as possible.
Cadmus was silent as he snapped his fingers, causing all of them to disappear from there. Keith couldn't help but jeer, "You know you could have answered their response."
"Shut it!" Cadmus smacked him in the back of his head.
"But what was that expression you made before we left?" Keith noticed the off expression on the dragon's face.
"Nothing. You're going to find out about it later," Cadmus smiled as he disappeared. Keith turned to Long Lihua and Ayaka, "We're going to head back to our island now. See you guys in class tomorrow."
"Mmhmm! See you later!" The two waved as they headed over to their residence. Keith turned to the two, "Let's return home and get some rest ourselves!"
"Mmhmm!" Like that, the two headed to the island. And it was the usual as Diana was the one to greet them, "Welcome home, everyone. How was your trip?"
"It was interesting." Keith and the others had quite the journey in such a short time.
"Woof!" That was when the spirit squad had jumped at him. Keith couldn't help but hold them, "Aww, hello. You guys are back."
"Po!" They noticed the brown furball on top of Keith's shoulders. Keith smiled, "Let me introduce you all to our new family. He's Lei and will be with us starting today!"
"Woof!" Saphir and the others greeted him. But when that happened, Diana and the two spirits only stared. Is that what I think it is? Everyone shared a look with one another. Then, it was to the two girls who nodded.
"So I take it that the rest are outside?"
"Mmhmm, they've been pretty bummed out by you leaving," Diana let out a wry laugh.
Keith smiled, "Yeah, we did leave on short notice."
"But I doubt they would be mad once I made some treats for them." Keith grinned. The spirit of wind's eyes brightened, "Oh! What are you going to make for us today?!"
"For starters, how about some milk pudding first?"
"Mmhmm!" "Pudding," Udine was quite interested in what kind of pudding he would make.
Making the pudding was simple enough as he placed it before them. Nephele was in awe, "So this doesn't need eggs or anything like that?"
"Mmhmm, ginger and milk have a reaction where-"
"Keith, we don't understand." Carolyn rolled her eyes. He was the only person who understood what this meant. The rest didn't know so much. Either way, it was quite delicious.
"So good!" They couldn't help but gobble it up in a few bites. But as they did so, Lei and Mir were in the bowls! The two went in on the food and dropped into it. Keith chuckled, "Mir, you can't show Lei such a sight."
"Po!" "Po!"
…. You're lucky you guys are so adorable. And Mir was becoming a bad influence! Keith chuckled as he patted the two on the head. But as he did so, that was when he noticed the beautiful girl tugging on his shirt,
"Keith, is there more?"
"...Let me make some more." Keith grinned. It was going to be a long day ahead of him. He's going to be making quite a lot. Nephele was already finishing it up while Diana was content. Those two girls were quite the fiends for it.
