Exactly as he had expected.

Charlotte was holding the candlestick and sticking her head out of the room.

It was bad time that Carcel bit his lips a bit as he looked at his clothes.

Earlier, the leader of Theros committed suicide right in front of him and blood covered his clothes.

The clothes he was wearing now were white, even if the hall was dark if you looked closely you could see blood.

Obviously, it wasn't something a noble girl like Charlotte should have seen. What if Charlotte shivered from fright?

Originally, he would never have cared for anyone to see him, but unfortunately his opponent was Charlotte.

Just as he didn't want to touch Theo with his bloody hands, he didn't want her to see him like that.

Carcel moved quickly and hid in the dark, he was afraid that Charlotte would see him in his clothes.

She was indifferent as she was standing in front of the dim candlelight.

Carcel stared clearly at Charlotte's smile and their eyes quickly met, then he spoke awkwardly.

"Have you not slept yet ?"

Thinking about it, she would often meet him in the hallway when he came back as if she was waiting for him.

Is there anyone but Theo waiting for him to come back? Thinking about it, it was different now when his deceased mother and father were waiting for him.

"Ah, I lay down to sleep, but I couldn't, so I have been reading a book for a while."

Charlotte muttered a few words as an excuse. She had already opened the book but could never read. This was because she kept thinking of Carcel who had gone and blamed herself for his anxiety.

He must have been on the way to find the person who was the cause of these operations, she was sure he would be fine, but she couldn't get rid of the anxiety.

So when Charlotte heard Carcel's voice when he arrived, she came out.

'I don't know why he's suddenly avoiding me.'

Charlotte didn't get close to him and just stood there, I thought he wanted to put some distance between them, so she didn't get as close to him as he wanted.

"Has the duke just come back?"

"That's right."

"Did you find the person who was after Theo?"

"Yes ."

Carcel replied that to reassure her.

"So you don't have to worry now."

"I feel better now ."

Charlotte closed her eyes this time and smiled at him.

"I was very worried, but now I'm relieved."

Carcel could not take his eyes off her and was dissatisfied with her distant appearance.

He wanted to get a little closer.

However, before he could act on his will, Charlotte greeted him first.

"You must be tired. Go in . You need to sleep now."

Carcel felt deep regret at the same time relieved that she hadn't seen him.

Charlotte slightly bowed her head as she walked in, and when she entered the light in the corridor had completely disappeared.
