Chapter 82: Keith's First Plan

If there was one person Keith was confident in knowing about, then that would be Clark, the main protagonist of the novel. But there was one problem. He wasn't supposed to be a part of any church at the moment.Keith stared at him with a loss for words, but the more he stared, the more he felt like something was off.

'Clark should have only been eighteen years old right now... and he was extremely outgoing and naive back then, but this guy in front of me... feels more like the Clark during the end of the novel.' he thought and frowned.

'It's fine, there's no need to panic.' he calmed his beating heart, 'He doesn't know about me so I'll stay on the sidelines and observe.'

As he silently kept his eye on Clark, more and more people began to appear on the beach and all of a sudden, Clark also had his eyes locked onto one person just like Keith.

Keith followed Clark's gaze and saw that he was looking at a familiar hateful face, Timmy.

Seeing this, Keith couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly.

'Don't tell me... is this even possible?' he thought, frowning as he still had his eyes on Clark, 'Did he regress back in time? If he did, does he have the powers from his past life or did he start anew?'

He had too many questions, but he was certain that he would be able to get his answers soon. Clark never knew Timmy during this time and this would continue for a few years after the war ends.

So seeing Clark staring at Timmy only meant one thing; he knew him.

And Keith had also seen Clark ball his fists, which meant that he was either pissed or had an aggressive attitude towards Timmy. This was only possible if Clark had experienced bad things due to him and this happened in the novel.

Keith took a deep breath and closed his eyes. It took him a few seconds to calm down and this time, he did not focus on Clark and instead, he looked around.

Most people were already here and only a few minutes later, multiple instructors went back to their respective groups. The masked lady walked over to Keith's group and looked at them.

"You'll need a name for your team. Anything will work." she said and waited for them to decide on one.

Half of them looked at Keith while the other half looked at Brandon. Keith smiled slightly and patted Brandon's shoulder, "As an official leader, you should take this."

Brandon nodded, not caring much about the spit in people's opinions about who the team leader should have been, "Well, Team Sera should work right?"

The lady nodded, "Okay, team Sera it is. From now onwards, you guys will call me instructor Sera."

'Damn, there's too many Sera's now. There you, the team, Seraphelle, Goddess Seraphelle and Goddess Seraphina.' Keith thought and shook his head as he was pretty bad with remembering names.

"Anyways, the first task for you guys is to drag wooden logs from the forest back to the beach. There will be other teams that will be taking care of cutting the trees. Also, this will go on until noon and then, you'll be allowed to go to the temporary market that we set up for you guys.

Today, you'll get free lunch, but from tomorrow, you'll have to bring your own things to trade for various items. The market will have a lot of things. Meat, grains, flour, spices, salt, weapons, traps and even clothes. Keep in mind though, that the prices of these items will be expensive. I suggest trading with the others instead of using the market.

You will have an hour of free time to eat and do your trades, but after that, there will be various combat type events along with recreational events." she said and looked around to see if the other instructors were done with their speeches.

When she saw that everyone was still talking, she looked back at her team and said, "Keep in mind that most of your actions will have an impact on your grades when you're here. Good trades, will get you points from the money church. Performing well during the recreational events will help you with Art Chuch.

Protecting your teammates and others from various things will of course, grant you points from protection church. Medicine and War churches are the same, so something related to those churches and you'll get points. Searᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

There will be two weeks worth of siege event which is specifically made to get you points from the war church. There are other ways too, but this will be the best source for war church points."

Keith took in all the information and nodded silently. His goal was to get top two for protection church, but for that to happen, he would have to rally all the members and teams that belonged to protection church first.

'Too much work....' he complained in his mind, but he didn't have any plans to withdraw from the task, 'I'll see what I can do but there's no point in stressing myself out. Let's just carry whatever logs these guys want and during that time, I can think about the variables.'

Instructor Sera saw the other teams getting into positions and looked at her own, "Alright then, you guys stand right there and wait for people to bring the logs to you."

Keith and the others looked a the place she pointed at before they walked over.

After sending her team to a good spot, instructor Sera left. Keith looked around and walked over to Amelia, knowing too well that he'd have to wait for a few long minutes for the first log to get to his team.

"Hey, you're good at talking to people, so I want you to do something for us." he said as he got closer to Amelia.

She looked up at him and nodded, curious about his plans.

"Just talk to the other teams from our Church and get them to cooperate with us. Suggest free help and resources as long as it isn't too much. I want our church to get the first or at least the second place."
