God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Keith spent two whole hours with Alvlin as he discussed about a revolver with a swap-able cylinder before ditching the entire idea. It was cool, but very impractical since trying to make the cylinder swap-able introduced a lot of issues.

And these issues were things that Keith did not want to deal with at the moment.

Instead, he gave Alvlin the revolver that Amelia had gifted him and pointed at the hammer, "I want you to use this hammer on your new gun. It has to be a double action revolver and it has to be a powerful one that uses the hunter's bullets. Feel free to use this gun as a base if you want."

Alvlin picked up the gun and inspected it before nodding, "Just the hammer then. I'll make a new weapon instead of using this one. Any other requirements?"

"Nope, I just want power and uh, try to do the grooving inside the barrel. The theory that I just told you a few minutes ago? About how we can make the bullets spin and what not."

"Sure, come back here in... four days."

Keith then left the workshop and went back to Clara's house where he saw his entire team lazing around. Experience tales with empire

"Looks like all of you are ready." he said as he looked at them before smiling.

Caleb nodded and got up from the chair, "Yeah, let's go!"

Everyone in the room got up and so did Amelia. The trio looked at her questioningly and seeing this, Keith chuckled before explaining to them.

"She'll be living with us and she'll pay the ten braks that's needed for groceries. Don't worry too much about it guys."

Laura looked at her two childhood friends and then at Keith before nodding. She knew that she had no right to object, not when she wasn't really paying any rent. Amelia had also agreed to pay for groceries, so she wasn't getting any special treatment.

Nathan also nodded, "Yeah, it'll be fun with more people."

The furniture and most of the things in the house belonged to the church, so they didn't have too much to move. Though, Amelia had four large bags filled to the brim with neatly folded clothes and on top of that, she also had two boxes of jewellery.

Keith looked at it and then glanced at the one bag that belonged to Clara. He felt a strange sense of relief, but he still turned to look at Amelia, trying to taunt her.

"Are these all, or do you have a few more bags filled with shoes?"

"Oh yeah!" Amelia exclaimed, not taking his taunt as a taunt and instead thanked him, "I almost forgot. There's a bag in my room and it's got my footwear." she said, smiling proudly.

Keith's lips twitched, but he shook his head and grabbed one of the bags before carrying it over his shoulder. Clara carried her own while the trio helped Amelia since they didn't really have anything they owned.

Most of their things, including clothes, were left in Baroma Kingdom.

Keith had to hire four rickshaws to get to the place as he felt too lazy to walk.

'I'm contributing to the economy and helping poor people by using their services.' he told himself instead of blaming his own laziness.

Once they reached their new house, all of them rushed inside and Keith threw Amelia's bag at her with full strength. It hit her accurately and pushed her to the ground.

"Dammit!! What did I even do to you!?" she screamed below the bag, making Keith feel like he really had done it without any reason.

He frowned as he watched her push the bag away and contemplated the reasons for his actions, only to realise that he had no reason.

'Wow, I'm turning into an asshole...' he thought as he walked over to her and sighed, "I'm sorry. I just... I don't know why I did that."

Amelia glanced up at him, her breath hitching as her eyes lingered on the curve of his neck, the sharp line of his jaw, before finally meeting his gaze. In his eyes, she saw guilt and regret, raw and vulnerable, stirring emotions she never expected.

He had literally hit her with a bag filled with clothes, carelessly, thoughtlessly, for no apparent reason.

Yet, in this moment, all she wanted was to close the distance, to wrap her arms around him and whisper that it was okay, that she forgave him. Not because he deserved it, but because her heart couldn't do otherwise.

Keith too, saw the sudden change in her expression and felt worried. He immediately took out his system screen to see what was going on in her mind and the only thing there was that she wanted to hug him.

Though she wanted to, she held herself back and clicked her tongue.

"Tch, annoying bastard. I hate you."

Keith, not knowing what to do, sighed and took a few steps back. On one end, he did not want to get too much on her good side, but on the other end, he also did not want to antagonise her too much.

"Meh." he said and looked at the others, "Clara and I will take the master bedroom." he said and heard them gasp.

Laura excitedly looked at Caleb, "See?! I told you that there was something going on between these two!" she said and shifted her attention to Keith, "So, is it official yet? Though, I wanted to ask... is dating between co-workers allowed? Our previous boss prohibited it since it'll cause problems with the job."

Keith let out a soft sigh. He knew that it was a bad thing, to date a co-worker. He didn't really want his teammates to start dating, but since he himself was in a relationship, he knew that prohibiting it would not be a good example.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

He shook his head, "Feel free to date, but when you're working, I want you to focus completely on the job."

Hearing this, Nathan immediately got on his knees and looked at Amelia, "Lady, would you like to-"

"No."
