Volume 8 Chapter 65: Happy Birthday Carolyn Pt 1
Everyone had become hectic. News about what had occurred between the Solis and Philosopher kingdoms had exploded these weeks. The Philosopher Kingdom tried to use the Princess of the Solis Kingdom to destroy the world.
That news was spread throughout the lands.
Two names were continuously brought out during this conversation; Masked Thief and Princess Carolyn. The elegant thief had stolen the princess away from the grasp of the evil prince. That was how people were saying it.
The princess in question had a grin plastered on her face as she stared at her room: it was completely empty. It was time for her to say goodbye to this place. As she left,
"Did you pack everything?" Tristan smiled.
"Mmhmm!" Carolyn nodded with a happy look.
Tristan sighed, "How could you look so happy?"
"Of course, she should be happy; after all, she's going to live on the same island with her prince," Maria grinned. But that caused Carolyn's cheeks to turn bubbly, "Do you have to say it out loud?" It was decided that she would live on the same island as Keith.
"To be honest, you should have joined his island in the beginning," The prince sighed. From the very start, Carolyn was better off being with Keith. That smile was a testament to how much it was so. She had never been this bright over here.
Carolyn grinned, "Don't worry about it; I'm doing it right now!"
"…" Tristan sighed, "So much I have to do."
"Good luck with that, brother." That was not her problem anymore!
"Cheeky!" Tristan pinched the girl's cheeks, "But seeing you like this is the best." He could tell that Carolyn had always been the free spirit type of girl. But this island here had been holding her back. It only got worse when Alger had involved himself.
"Mmhmm," Tristan and Maria held her shoulders as she was prepared to leave, "Huh? What are you guys doing?"
"Sorry about this, Sister. But we have orders from the higher-up to bring you to the island personally." Maria grinned.
"Say what?" Higher-up was definitely Keith.
"Ehehe, Just play along." Carolyn's eyes were covered, and she was brought to the island.
"Guys, do you have to do this?"
"Mmhmm."
"Did you bring the package?" Now she heard Sarah and Gabriel.
"Mmhmm."
"... I'm a package?" Carolyn wanted to retort to that. But she decided to play along as the four brought her to the second island. As she wondered what was going to happen,
"What-"
"Surprise!" Everyone shouted as the blindfold came off. Lights continued to blind her as small confetti rained down.
"Mother, Father, Grandpa Cedric? Grandpa Lionel?!" There were so many people that she knew here. It was surprising. What was more, there was also a large amount of food spread around!
"What is all of this?"
"Since we couldn't celebrate your birthday, we should celebrate now." Julius smiled. That wedding had consumed all of their time and their daughter's birthday. It was time to make up for it.
"Thank you so much!" Carolyn smiled!
"Come on, Birthday Girl! Go eat! All of your favorites are there," Sarah and Scarlet grabbed her hands and brought her over to the spread. The number of dishes on the table was incredible.
"How did Keith have the time to make all of this?"
"Keith and the dorm mothers worked together to make this." Everyone saw how the four went to work: Diana and Keith were on cooking duty, Udine was boiling, and Nephele was chopping. It was a super combination.
"Thank you so much!"
"You should really say that to Keith. He's been sending letters and strategizing all of this for you."
"..." That guy. Her heart was filled with sugar as she continued to eat the food. But as they did so,
"What kind of meat is this?" Lionel questioned. It melted in his mouth and was quite savory.
"Oh, that's the variant Keith had defeated in the S-rank dungeon."
"Eh?!" Variant? S-rank dungeon? Are you kidding me with that?!
"So he finally cooked the thing," Alfia and the others nodded; the group knew about Keith defeating a variant and the floor boss. They had that T-Rex; it was a matter of time for the other.
"..." The adults stared at how content they looked. What kind of things have they been eating?
"Little Gem, what have you been eating on this island?" Cedric questioned Krystal.
"Hmm, not many things."
"Okay,"
"We did eat dragon honey every day. Also, we get to eat eggs from an A-rank monster."
"..."
"Cooo!" On the side, Eldi sounded. She heard her name being spoken.
"..." How was that not many things?! Each one would definitely kill someone! And she was one of the people who joined later. What else did they eat?!
"But where's Keith?" Now that was mentioned, the boy wasn't here right now.
William tilted his head, "He wasn't in the kitchen either."
"This kid. He was the one who devised everything; how could he be late to it?" Cedric shook his head. This was a little too weird.
"He must have a reason," Camelia knew he wouldn't do anything. But then she stared at all the girls here, "But to think my grandson would know so many beautiful ladies."
Carolyn, Sarah, Krystal, Alfia, Faelyn, Scarlet. All of them were quite beautiful.
"..." Lionel coughed, "Dear, not right now."
Thalia chuckled, "To think he would be such a sinful man,"
"I'mma kill him when I see him," Julius was straightforward.
"Dad," Carolyn wanted to say something. However,
"What's this about killing on such a day, Uncle Julius?" Keith came out from the side. He had a grin as he rolled something onto the island.
