Inside the banquet hall of Chalon Castle, the breakfast venue.

Piel conveyed news about Theo to Maximin.

"Father, Theo said he'll sleep until lunch. He didn't sleep at all last night."

"What did you say...? What did you just say, daughter?"

Maximin, with eyes wide open, asked back.

"He didn't sleep at all last night, so he's sleeping until lunch. He's sleeping right now. I don't know what he was doing all night."

Piel repeated, still with her lips pouting out.

Clatter!

Maximin got up from his seat without having breakfast.

"Let's go to Theo quickly! Was there anything else unusual?"

Piel, not understanding why her father was so surprised, simply complied.

"...? It seemed like the window was open. There was a lot of wind noise."

"Let's go quickly, daughter! Sorry, but I'll leave first. Don't worry about me, go ahead and eat."

Maximin slightly bowed to the guests in the banquet hall and then headed to Theo's room with Piel.

However, among the remaining guests, not a single person continued their breakfast.

Irene spoke softly, looking around at the others.

"...Should we go too?"

"Of course."

"Let's go, Irene."

Seria and Amy nodded in turn and got up from their seats.

Alice and Alphs followed suit.

Thus, the five of them also quickly made their way to Theo's room.

------

In front of Theo's room.

Maximin knocked on the door forcefully.

"Theo! Are you in there! Answer me!"

But no sound came from inside.

"...Can't be helped."

Maximin took a stance to kick the door with his back foot.

He could have ordered a servant or butler to bring the key to the room, but every second was crucial at this moment.

"Excuse me."

With those words, Maximin kicked the door with all his might.

Crash─!

With a loud noise, the door immediately flew off its hinges.

Theo, who had been soundly sleeping on the bed, startled awake.

He frowned but, seeing Maximin, returned to his usual expression.

"What's the matter... Lord Maximin. I told Piel I'd skip breakfast and lunch..."

"You! I heard you didn't sleep all night! Is there somewhere you're not feeling well!"

Maximin hurriedly approached Theo and examined his body.

Then,

"Ugh."

A sharp pain surged through Theo's body.

Many people were murmuring and looking at him from the corridor outside the room.

"Theo!"

"What's happening?"
