Volume 11 Chapter 23: Details About Them
“...Guys, am I scary?” During lunch, Keith had to ask them this question. Carolyn tilted her head, “Really depends on the situation.”
“Huh?”
“You get angry by stages, and when you’re at the end, you’re scary enough that I want to jump out the window to escape.” The incident with Cadmus was enough to instill that fear into her. There was no way she didn’t want to do that. Heck! She still felt fear even as she hid behind Long Yueying and Yukiko.
“Indeed, the stage 5 was fierce," Krystal nodded.
“Stage 5?! He went to stage 5 when?!” Herrick and the others were entirely surprised by this. They had gotten him to stage 3. Who in the world got him to stage 5?!
"Yeah, Cadmus got him to a stage 6." The man went above that.
"Hah!" Herrick and the others widened.
“...” Are you guys acting like I’m some kind of meter?!
"Why are you asking that?" Angelica was out of the loop.
"Because of who he was grouped up with for his dungeon practical."
“Mmhmm. To be honest, I don’t think I’m that scary.” He wasn’t going to bite their heads off and try to kick them out.
“Well, Leona, can you give me details about the two?” That was something he was slightly confused about. But Leona was in the same class as Muriel and Jerome.
“Hmm, I didn't think much about them. Jerome is a hothead who doesn’t like nobles in general. For Muriel, she’s the standard studious person. There’s really nothing I can say about them.” Leona didn’t look at them that much.
“I see.” Keith got an idea from her. “Does anyone know about Lucy?” That was something he was actually confused about. What surprised him was that she wasn’t on his radar. It was quite a strange thing. He handed her papers and such, yet he couldn't recognize her. It was like she had a built-in ninja skill. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
“She’s a commoner.”
“Then she’s the only one besides Jerome.” This one was a little surprising. To get into S-class, they needed to have a good number of things. But the critical thing to have was knowledge.
“The commoner test and noble test are quite different from one another. But for her to get here meant that she has a good foundation.” Gabriel explained. The commoner test was made to be simpler than the noble test. However, they need to hit a specific score to get into S-class.
“But she's also one of the five who almost got dropped.” Last semester, the bottom five S-class students would face off against the top five students of A-class. Whoever won would stay in S-class or drop down to A-class.
“Oh,” this was news to him. Scarlet nodded, “Mmhmm, she was going to be demoted but stayed here.” That meant she passed.
“Okay, that gave me a good idea of what to do now.” Keith nodded. That was when Carolyn questioned, “So why did you do all of this?”
“Hmm?”
“Don’t play dumb; you’re the reason why we’re having this dungeon practical.” They were not fools at all; it was clear that Keith was the one who asked Aidiun to do this.
“Oh, I have my reasons for this,” A devious grin formed. But that only caused the others to grow curious. What are you planning to go with this? But Keith didn't say much about it as he headed off.
At the library, Keith started to look at the books there. But as he did so, Keith then noticed a figure there. It was none other than Muriel. She was picking out a book from the shelf. As she was doing this, Keith took a sigh as he walked and picked it up,
“Here,” “Eh?!”
“You needed it, right?” Keith sighed, “If you’re going to get a book from the top shelf, you should get the ladders. They’re here for a reason.” Keith grinned as he placed the book in her hands. That was the only thing he said as he walked over and started to read his book. It was a good way to pass the time. But what he didn’t know was that Muriel had sat across from him.
“...”
“...Do you have anything you want to say to me?”
“...Umm, that book you’re reading…it’s about magic tools.”
“Mmhmm, it’s magic tools. I’ve been thinking about some magic tools I could make.” By making such tools, it would make cooking much more straightforward. There are many types of things he was quite interested in making.
“Do you have a hobby for magic tools?!” Muriel’s eyes widened as she stared at Keith. But that was only for a brief moment as she quickly sat back down.
“I-” “I’m interested in some magic tools.” Keith smiled as he explained. And that was when Muriel asked, “Then do you know of the new gadget called the crystal camera!”
“Oh, that. My brother was the one who made it.” Keith muttered.
“Really?!”
“Mmhmm.” Muriel and Keith started to talk for some more before Keith realized the time, “Oh, I have to go now.” If he didn’t leave now, the others would get uppity at dinner.
“Ah,” Muriel realized the time as well.
“We can talk like this again if you like,” Keith smiled as he walked away from there.
