Volume 7 Chapter 68: I Need Your Help

Volume 7 Chapter 68: I Need Your Help

The atmosphere had changed in a matter of a few days. Everyone realized the situation: Krystal had been wandering around the island like a fool. It was pretty noticeable after these last few days. 

"Is she going to be alright?" Scarlet muttered to Alfia as she noticed Krystal watered a plant a few days ago. However, her hand was motionless, still in a downpour motion. Plus, she was watering dirt! That was not normal by her standards. 

And that was not the only weird thing; the girl spaced out during her meals, walked into a column, and waved her sword aimlessly. 

"What was in the letter?" Faelyn frowned. Besides Keith, Faelyn was the second person she talked to the most. The two got along with one another. 

Krystal was out of it right now, and she was worried about her. 

It was clear to everyone that the letter Krystal had received after the party's return was the root of her distress. Something that was inside the letter had unsettled her deeply. 

"I don't think we should pry," Arlo interjected, "If she doesn't want to say anything about it, then we can't force it out." 

"But-"

"Headmaster, what was said in that thing?" Everyone's eyes were now directed at one person.

"Why are you asking me?"

"Because you received a letter that had to do with Krystal." 

"Say what? Aidiun, you have a big mouth!" It had to be this elf! 

Aidiun shrugged, "It's not my fault you say it in front of everyone. And it has something to do with a student."

"By the way, where is Keith?" 

"Where do you think?"

...

Krystal walked around the hallway. But as she did, she had an aimless look. What am I going to do? 

"Well, if it isn't Krystal." Krystal looked up to see it was Doyle. 

"Hello, Prince Doyle." Krystal nodded.

"Why are you walking all alone?"

"…Just thinking about some things." Krystal backed away from him. She didn't like him at all. Some time ago, Krystal would meet with him because of her father's business in the castle. She didn't like him one bit. 

"Come on, you can talk to me about everything." Doyle had a grin as he said this. But that only made her uncomfortable.

"There's really nothing I can talk about with you."

"What? With what happened at the grand duchy, don't you need the help of a royal?" There were three main factions in the Solis Kingdom. The one with the most power right now was the Royal Family. 

"!"

"If you tell me what's going on I could help you." Doyle grinned. 

"..." Krystal's eyes wavered slightly before, 

"Krystal, there you are." Krystal and Doyle turned their heads over to see Keith. 

"Doyle, I'm pretty sure what you're doing is unbecoming a prince."

"I don't know what you're talking about." Doyle frowned. Keith shook his head, "Please be more mindful of what you do. Tristan and Carolyn are watching over you."

"…" Doyle's expression turned dark as he stared at the man. 

"Let's go now." "Mmhmm." Paying no mind to him, Keith turned to Krystal. The two walked away. 

Now that the two of them were gone, Doyle's expression was livid, "How dare he talk to me like that!" Talking about Tristan and Carolyn was a big no for him.

"Who does that bastard think he is?! He's just some smuck!"

"You need to be more calm around him." Someone else spoke up. But Doyle's expression turned dark, "However-"

"You will gain more power once everything is done."

"Fine. I will let him have this win right now!"

"Please tell me you're not friends with that guy." Doyle wasn't the only one who didn't like the other. Once they were out of earshot, Keith immediately blurted out. 

"Of course not! I just met him by coincidence!" She couldn't be friends with that guy. 

"That's good. I would really have to question your judgment on some of your friends." Keith sighed in relief. 

"...Hey, doesn't that mean you as well."

"I'm an exception." A proud grin formed as Keith had no shame in saying this. 

"Pff." Once that was said, the two went into silence as they walked.  

"... Aren't you going to ask me?" 

"Hmm?" 

"I mean with the letter? Aren't you going to ask me what was in the letter?" Everyone tried not to say anything about it. But she could tell there was something off. They probably understood why Krystal felt this way. That was why they tried to help her in any way they could. 

However, there was an outlier. 

The only person who didn't say anything about it was Keith. Even when he saw how distressed she was, he never asked about it with her.

"That's because you will tell me when you're ready."

"…" Krystal went silent.

"Just know that we are always there to back you up if anything happens." Keith grinned. 

"What if I happen to take Doyle's offer?"

"Then you are an idiot." 

When she heard that, she sighed deeply, "Please help me. I need everyone's help."
