Volume 9 Chapter 22: 50th store
When they returned for dinner,
"Ahh, you met with them. Please keep it a secret." William requested. Hearing how the two followed Keith to the forest, it was expected they had met with the snowballs.
"Understood." Krystal nodded. Of course, she would keep this under wraps. If anyone else found out about this, they would definitely go crazy with it.
"But Uncle William, I think the king knows about this?" From how Carolyn reacted, this was not their first meeting.
"Yes, Julius knows about this. So does the headmaster and deputy headmaster." Only a handful of people outside the city knew about this.
"I see." Krystal turned to Keith,
"What?"
"What do you mean what? You’re clearly acting too nonchalant about this." The man continued to be so carefree. It was concerning.
Carolyn shook her head, "He's always been like that."
...
After dinner, Keith had entered May's room. And when he was there, Mel quickly bowed,
"Can I have a moment of her time?"
"Young Master, what do you need?"
"Um, am I bothering you?" May looked slightly distraught. There were a lot of letters on her desk. She shook her head, "No! It's nothing, Young Master!"
"I was thinking about making a chocolate factory." Keith grinned. And when that was said,
"A chocolate factory?" May was interested.
"It's a place where we can sell chocolate sweets and other delicious things." There were many things he could do with chocolate. And having a factory that solely focused on making it was lovely.
"I think that can be arranged." May thought about it as she added, "We can also put it as a storefront and a factory behind it, which would make it easier for workers."
"Yeah, that was what I was thinking as well. That way, they could get the chocolate treats as well." Keith couldn't hide his excitement. May nodded, "Then I will have Coyler find a plot of land where we can do so."
"That's great! We'll also need to find new workers," Keith grinned. It was time for him to do some recruiting again!
"Umm, Young Master, I know it's your break. But can we go somewhere?"
"Hmm? Where do you want to go?"
"Well, you see, there's a bakery opening up, and it's our 50th one. So I was asked to do the grand opening. But since you're here, you should be able to go, right?"
"Oh, sure. I can go with you." Woah, we're opening our 50th one. This was a little surprising. He had gotten to the point where he had opened so much in the northern region.
"When are we leaving?"
"We're going tomorrow."
"Then I'm going to pack up!" Keith grinned as he headed out.
...
"You two behave and listen to your big brother, understand?" Sophia warned the two children. It was time for them to head off to the town for the grand opening of the 50th store. Keith and May weren't going alone; four people were coming along with him.
"We'll behave!" Leon and Laura sounded.
"Let's go now!" Keith grinned. That was when they started to move.
"It's been so long since we have gone on a trip together like this!" The last time he did so was a couple of months ago.
"Mmhmm!" Leon and Laura nodded. Actually, there has never been a time when they had gone out together for so long for the children. The two hadn't gone out to hunt yet, which was unsurprising since they were kids. And the added gates really stomped camping and traveling. While that happened,

"This will be fun!" "Camping!" Leon and Laura grinned.
"…" "Here, young master." May quickly brought out a tissue for him.
"Thank you so much."
"Seriously, you're acting like such a doting brother."
"Because I am."
"What's going to happen when you have a kid?" Carolyn wondered. But that was when her cheeks turned red.
Keith scoffed, "That's years away!"
"Anyways, this would be your 50th store," Krystal muttered. She was quite surprised by the number of stores that opened like this.
Keith nodded, "You know me, I have so many competent people that I have to expand."
"And now you have expanded to the south as well." Her home is about to get one as well.
"Well, it was more like your grandpa forced me to put one there." That was not his idea; Cedric was the one who pushed the damn thing onto him.
"…Sorry."
"It's fine." Keith waved, "It's just another person asking for it, which is unsurprising." This was not his first rodeo.
"You either get annoyed by them for a lifetime or build one, right?" Carolyn grinned. She remembered what occurred when the first bakery opened.
"Of course," Keith laughed.
"Also, isn't it overkill to have you here?" Michael was going with him on this trip. The commander going on the trip with them? Yeah, that was pretty overkill in his book.
That only caused Michael to scoff, "Relax, it's not like I'm going to do anything horrible."
"But you being here is still crazy."
"Of course! With so many people here, you need support." Michael pounded his chest. There were so many royals inside the carriage. Of course, he came as backup.
"…" Are you kidding me?
"Oh, please. What could go wrong." Those words were something that was going to make Keith regret.
