Chapter 172: Chapter 172
Arthur's Point of View
Pendragon Estate
When it rains, it fucking pours. "Hi, Arthur!"
Looking up from my sandwich, I immediately sighed. "If it isn't the pupils." Kine, Ayda, Cassidy, and Floyd had all let themselves into my home. "One of these days, I am going to get a butler or servant of some manner just to tell people not to barge in here."
Ayda immediately replied. "We were going to head to your office to speak to you until we heard you in the kitchen." She informed me.
"Lovely." Was my muted response.
"Hi, Arthur!" Floyd greeted again just as cheerfully.
I felt a headache building. "Floyd." The man jumped on the other side of the counter and grunted since it looked like he belly-flopped on the floor.
Kine crossed his arms and scoffed. "Always so welcoming."
Taking a bite of my sandwich, I didn't bother to swallow before speaking. "Given that I can't be left alone for more than twenty-four hours, I'd like to eat alone and in peace."
Floyd popped up next to me suddenly and looked at my sandwich. "Would you like me to whip you up some grub!?" He asked excitedly.
"First of all, back up." I told him. The source of this content is N0veII_bIn
This asshole bent over even more and arched his back up. "Like this?"
My eye twitched as I had to remember who I was dealing with. "No." Pushing him away, he stumbled before diving onto the other side of the counter again. "A home-cooked meal would be nice, but this is simple enough. I like my sand-"
Snorting amused, I responded with the spoon paused right in front of my mouth. "What? Fly off into the sunset? Your teachers ask you to do something, and you come here with a piss pour attitude? How in the world you were chosen as their student is beyond me."
Kine glared at me as he clenched his jaw in anger. "Arthur..." Ayda said slowly.
"Yeah?" I said after sipping on my stew.
The Elf moved across from me and placed both her hands on the counter as she stared at me. "Please just answer the question." Her tone was firm.
Rolling my eyes, I finished my stew quickly before turning to Cassidy. "Can we talk when I get back? I promise you'll get my undivided attention."
Cassidy gave a firm nod. "When the Priestesses call, we answer."
"Most of us." Kine commented as he stared at me.
I nodded in agreement, and Ayda sighed in annoyance. "Not many would argue with that assessment." The Elf pointed out.
"I know I wouldn't." My two cents weren't appreciated.
Floyd then handed me back my sandwich before walking off and fiddling with something. "Me neither!"
Opening a portal, I dumped the sandwich into it before summoning a new one. "Anyone need to come with?" I inquired.
"Ah think this is private, Arthur." Cassidy stated, and she gestured to my portal. "Ya behave yerself now, and Ah'll see ya when ya get back."
"Yes, Mom!" I said in an overly dramatic tone before seeing Ayda roll her eyes. "Don't take that tone of thought process with me, young lady!" The Elf quirked a brow as I pointed at her. "I can read you like a book."
Ayda opened her mouth to respond, but Floyd gasped excitedly. "Really!?" Then he grabbed Ayda by her shoulders and shook her. "What's the cover look like!?"
I do some stupid shit. On purpose, mind you, but Floyd is something special. Never once have I ever thought he was all there, and every instance I meet him just confirms it more and more. However, there was something about him that always threw me off.
The green-haired Elf just looked at me, slightly amused. "Never considered to be wary of the words that come out of your mouth, have you? Do you even listen to yourself?"
Scoffing, I turned to the portal. "Fuck no! I'd probably give myself an aneurism." Cassidy giggled at that as I left and appeared in the Temple Throne Room with two high and mighty Priestesses. "Forgive me, Priestess, for I have sinned." I immediately said upon them looking towards me with my portal quickly closing behind me.
