"I'LL THINK ABOUT IT AT THAT TIME." He shrugged his shoulders, radiating a mysterious sense of self-confidence.
There'd be serious trouble if Isaac found out his true intentions later.
Clara opened her mouth to say something, but the deafening boom of an explosion was heard from over the mountains.
"Look out! Magic beasts have appeared!"
In the distance, birds flew through the sky making a large commotion. The words 'magic beasts' changed what everyone was doing. Tossing aside the vine that he had been holding, Isaac hurriedly rushed over to Clara and stood in front of her to block her way.
"Clara, go back to the villa with the others!"
"We'll take care of things here, so please return."
Upon hearing word of an unexpected attack by magic beasts, Clara and the servants quickly started to leave the area. Alex and Isaac mounted their horses, keeping an eye on the direction of the explosion as they secured the path of retreat.
"Ciel."
"Where the hell is Ciel?"
"It seems everyone is safe."
Theo used flight magic to land in the courtyard. He was holding Louis, who had fainted, at his side. Clara ran over to Theo as soon as she saw him.
"Brother. Where is Ciel?"
Theo entrusted Louis, still passed out, to the servants. He glowered as he looked out beyond the villa, which was covered in barriers. Before anyone could stop him, Alex secured his sword and urged his horse forward.
"You must have just missed him on the way back. What are you going to do?"
After asking that question, Theo looked at Alex. It was a good opportunity to find out who he had feelings for.
"I am going to find him."
"But Your Highness...!" Theo nodded his head when Alex readily stepped up.
"I'll give you this. It will help you find Ciel." Just in case it was needed, he handed Alex a magic tool that could locate the tracking necklace that Ciel was wearing.
"I'll go too!"
"An immense flood of magic beasts will overrun us soon. Since Louis is unconscious, you and I are the only ones here who can deal with the magic beasts."
"Brother!"
"Trust in Ciel a little more."
A massive horde of magic beasts was said to be headed in their direction, but Theo's reaction was preternaturally calm.
Clara was worried. Theo clasped her hand firmly while Isaac readied his sword in order to deal with their immediate situation.
