Besides...

'Is her forehead okay?'

The wound he had been looking at all the way to the capital that it became annoying.

Sir Ahin must have been able to heal her without pain, but he could only feel relieved if he saw this with his own eyes. This doesn't mean he doesn't trust Ahin, he just doesn't feel comfortable.

Carcel hurriedly got up and left the room. Charlotte's room was diagonally across from Carcel's room.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a faint glimmer of light in Charlotte's door slit.

He was about to knock on the door.

"Forget it, you should get some sleep."

"Isn't it too early?"

"You have to go to bed earlier than usual, aren't you tired of the hard journey? Do not stay up late and go to bed immediately."

"Uh understood . Emma should sleep soon, too."

Hearing the voices that were inside, Carcel pulled his hand out to knock on the door.

His stiff hand and fingers hovered aimlessly in front of the door for a moment.

He quickly turned and left.

When his door closed, Charlotte's door opened, and Emma came out with the candlestick and walked down the hall.

In the hallway where Emma walked, only darkness and silence subsided.

***

A few days later, Sir Heather's funeral was held.

Externally, he was said to have died in an accident while protecting Theo from the Mana Gate.

His burial was solemn due to Carcel's special care.

Charlotte, wearing the black dress of mourning the Heinst family had prepared for her, made her way to Theo's room to pick him up.

Irina, who had prepared beforehand, said she was going to help Theo change his clothes, but somehow there was a noise coming from the open door.

"Young master!"

"Young master, it's okay. Shall we try this?"

"Young master!"

Charlotte entered the room feeling dizzy. The scene happening in the room now was similar to what she had seen in the Lannia Palace before.

Theo cradling his body in the corner, and the maids few steps away from him.

'Why is he doing that today?'

Unlike the servants of Lannia's mansion, the ones in front of him now were familiar faces, so he shouldn't have to do this.

"Theo, why are you doing this?"

"Sister?"

Theo, who was about to run to Charlotte as he usually does, froze in place as soon as he saw her.

He looked at Charlotte up and down, then turned around and back into the corner again. Charlotte looked at herself as did Theo.

'Is he afraid of mourning clothes?'

It was a reasonable assumption. Perhaps children should not have dark colors, because everyone in the palace wears mourning clothes.

'He must have sensed the gloomy atmosphere.'

The atmosphere was covered in dark color. Theo must have felt an ominous feeling as soon as he opened his eyes in the morning.

Furthermore, it was only natural that Theo had attended the funeral of his father, the former Duke of Heinst just half a year ago.
