Almost all the teams except rk''s and Keith''s were having the same problems as Timmy and his team. One by one, they all fainted due to dehydration andck of energy, which prompted the masked instructors to teleport them back to the other ind.
Even though it was just the fourth day since the event started, there were only two teams left on this ind. One was Keith''s and the other was rk''s. Most of them didn''t even know the cause of their loose bowels when they were taken back.
The guys from the church of medicine should have been able to neutralise thexative, but Keith knew the truth. No matter how much knowledge they had, they wouldn''t be able to make a cure without raw ingredients. But how did rk manage to do this? It was thanks to a particr snake''s venom sack.
This snake''s venom sack could be used for other products like tranquillisers or pain suppressants. There were other methods of making medicine for loose bowels that way cheaper but little did they know that the only way of counteracting rk''sxative was to make powder using the snake''s venom as one of the ingredients.
Another reason for this was the fact that this "cure" was supposed to be discovered in the future and since rk was from the future, he used this knowledge to the fullest. Like most protagonists, rk had experience in multiple fields, but even then, he his core talent lied in causing havoc.
Which was exactly what happened in the past few days as people gathered at the pond and fought others due to food shortage.
On the fifth day, Keith looked at the four who had just woken up and yawned tiredly, "Guys, let''s attack rk today. Not now, but after I wake up."
Brandon nodded and cupped some water with his palms and used it to rinse his mouth.
He spit the water on the ground before looking at Keith, "Are you sure? What if someone else attacks us when we''re too involved in the fight?"
"It''s fine, we have seven and they only have three. If someone else joins the fight, then we leave everything and run." Keith said as he took the nket that the four of them used to keep themselves warm and sat down on the 3yers of nkets as he stretched his legs.
He looked up at ra and Amelia who silently joined him, with ra in the middle and Amelia on the other side. Amelia silently watched as she saw her friend hug Keith without any of the hesitation that she had a few days ago, but this left a bitter feeling in her heart for an unknown reason.N?v(el)B\\jnn
''..... I feel weird.'' she thought, noticing the weird feeling in her heart as she looped her arms around her knees and closed her eyes.
ra on the other hand sniffed at Keith''s chest like a hungry cat before using his thighs as a pillow. Her legs kicked Amelia who just wanted to sleep and she hurriedly got up before apologising.
"I didn''t mean it, I''m sorry!" She said as she put her hand on Amelia''s shoulder, "Um.... also, can you like move to the other side? To Keith''s left?"
Amelia silently stared at ra and nodded before she crawled to Keith''s left before covering herself with the nket while leaving her head outside. She watched ra getfortable on Keith''sp and exhaled heavily.
"Looks like you guys have gotten reallyfortable with each other, huh?" she asked. She didn''t know why she was spouting nonsense right now, but she felt bitter and wanted to vent indirectly.
Keith slowly turned his head to look at her, "Well, yeah. I''d say it''s thanks to you."
Hearing his words, she felt like a cold stone had been dropped in her stomach. She frowned as her eyes lingered on him, her thoughts drifting.
''.... am I getting jealous? Me? There''s no way that''s possible... he''s handsome and is quite a gentleman to others but he''s an asshole when ites to me. Well, a good kind of asshole but still.. Ugh, damn I hate him.'' he thought as her gaze slowly moved to his neck and lingered on his trapezius muscles.
He was still pretty skinny, but he had grown quite a bit of muscle in the past three months and for the first time, Amelia was entranced.
Just as she was staring at him, a high pitched but barely audible yelp reached Amelia''s ears. There was some shuffling under the nket but since her head was outside, she couldn''t see what was going on inside unless she actively went down under the nket, which she did not wish to do. Not right now when Keith was staring straight at her.
The straight face of his made her thoughts falter, her imagination of ra doing something funny under the nket, crumbling. ra clearly wasn''t someone who''d participate in such naughty acts when there were people around them, or at least that was what she thought as she could never imagine ra doing such things.
But her world view shattered when she heard a muffled moan and saw Keith suddenly look away.
Unable to ept the sudden change, her body moved on it''s own. She grabbed the nket and pulled, wanting to see what in the hell was going on under the nket, only to see Keith''s hand on ra''s back.
His thumb pressed down as it slowly rotated in circles.
Keith hurriedly grabbed the nket and covered her as her back was, in fact bare.
"What the hell is your problem?" he whispered to Amelia as he looked at the other four who were groggily walking around, oblivious to what had happened just now.

"I... I just thought that you were taking advantage of ra since she doesn''t speak out about her problems. Yeah, I was trying to look out for her." she said, partially making up a reason for her actions and partially to convince herself away from the true reason behind her actions.
"Well, she told me that her back hurts so I''m giving her a massage. I already told you before to not jump to conclusions in your head and to ask about things to rify." Keith replied, exasperated with her actions.
