Volume 10 Chapter 6: Candy 

“Is this the first time you’ve been on a boat?” Long Lihua smiled. 

“Mmhmm,” Keith nodded as his eyes were locked on the sea. It was mesmerizing, calling out to him even. 

“And I take it that this is the same for the others as well?” Long Lihua then pointed at Carolyn and Krystal. Their faces were green as they held their stomachs. 

“...Yeah,” Keith looked at the two, “I think you guys should go to your rooms and rest up.” Seasickness. This was a clear sign they were seasick. 

“We can-yeah, let’s go to our rooms.” Carolyn quickly switched gears as her face slowly bloated up. Being on the boat for the first time would make anyone seasick like a fat fish. The best thing to do was to lie down in this situation. 

“I don’t think I can move in this situation,” Krystal muttered as her legs shook back and forth. How embarrassing. She couldn’t believe the sea would make her like this.  

Keith sighed as he picked the two up, “I’m going to bring these two to their room first. I hope you don’t mind.”

“It’s fine. It’s normal to get seasick.” Long Lihua understood what the two were going through. That was when the boy had brought them back to their room.

“The two of you rest up here and take a breather.” 

"Mmhmm." "Okay." 

He returned to the deck to see Long Qiqiang training. The dragon was practicing by himself. His punches were strong enough to make a sound. Keith walked over, “Do you need a sparring partner?”

“Sure,” Long Qiqiang raised his fist, and like that, the two started to spar with one another. Unlike their fight, this was a bit more mundane as each punch had little to no force. However, it was more so about technique.

“You’re pretty good at this,” Long Qiqiang grinned as he continued to block the blows coming his way. 

Keith also grinned, “I can tell you’re pretty good yourself.” There was no need to say anything about this since they had fought with one another. The two knew about how the other was a fighting prodigy.

“Let’s pick up a pace, shall we?”

“Mmhmm,” Agreeing with one another, they had picked up the pace. After some time, the two of them were out of breath, “This is the first time he has pushed me so hard.” Usually, he would be fighting someone, and they would be pummeled.

“That was a good workout for me as well.”

“You should really spar with my cousin.” Lihua would definitely grow from this if she did. 

“Long Lihua? Sparred with her for a bit. She’s pretty good.” The dragon girl was quite something, as she could probably beat anyone. Even he would have a tough time. 

“I see, so the priestess has become stronger than before.” 

“Sounds to me that you had thought otherwise about her.”

“Of course, the elders in our clan have been telling her that she shouldn’t be going to the academy. Instead, she should be training at home. But the two decided not to and follow their own path.” The girls decided to come here, which was unknown to the others. 

“I’m kinda confused about how your island is run?” From how he talked, it seemed that the way things operated didn’t have a monarchy position.

“Ahh, it would be different from what you used to see,” Long Qiqiang understood the problem, “Our island is run by two ancestors; they’re the founders of the island. From this, they created their own clans. However, what watches all the orders is the elders. Right now, there are six elders: three from the Kazemori clan and three from the Long clan.”

“Ahh, makes a lot more sense now.” Keith nodded when he heard all of that. But then he froze, “Wait a moment, how old are your ancestors?” If he said something about the ancestors, they should still be alive. 

“They should be more than 500 at the least,” The person who said this was the fox who had come to the academy with Long Qiqiang.

“Oh, Shinzo.” “Hello,”

The fox person smiled, “My name is Shinzo Kazemori. What you said about them is that they’re quite old. More so, it’s actually quite difficult to meet with them.”

“It is?”  “Mmhmm, the elders are the only people allowed to meet with them. Besides them, Lihua and Ayaka can meet with them. They could only do so because they’re direct descendants and the most talented of all of us.”

“I see. You guys have some strange rules,” Keith laughed. But that caused Long Qiqiang to shrug, “We've gotten used to something like that.” It wasn’t strange when everyone followed it. 

Shinzo added, “But I’m surprised you can deal with seasickness so easily.”

“Was it not easy for you two?”

“It was worse for Qiqiang. The boy was gagging and throwing up every 2 minutes,” Shinzo laughed, but that only caused Qiqiang to scoff, “Oh please, you were doing the same thing.” He was only in a better state for a few minutes. The two were out of commission the first time they rode a boat.

“Then do you guys want this?” Some wrapped orbs were brought before them.

“Hmm?” “What are these?”

“Oh, these are candies that I made for my company. It’s good for seasickness as well.” Lemon is a good remedy for motion sickness.

“Let me try,” Qiqiang tossed the thing in, but then Keith’s eyes raised, “You’re supposed to take off the wrapper.

“…Ah,”

“Reckless.” Shinzo laughed as he unwrapped his and popped it into his mouth. Sucking on it, the lemony flavor started to flow into his mouth, “This is really soothing.”

“Mmhmm, it’s meant to do that.” Keith grinned as he started to take out some other things, “I also have some blue plum flavors, orange, apple, and strawberry flavors as well.” There were many flavors he had made using them. Shinzo and Long Qiqiang were quite interested in it, “Let’s try them.” They were quite interested in the flavors now.
