'Since when did she get so close to those girls...? Weren't they avoiding her before...?'
Before Leon could dwell on it too much, one of the knights suddenly spoke up, catching everyone's attention.
"By the way... has anyone called the young master?"
The group exchanged awkward glances. They had been planning to invite Eren to join them—since he had helped them a lot during the expedition—but none of them had actually gone to fetch him yet.
Luckily, a male servant who had just arrived with a tray of fresh food spoke up.
"The young master is currently resting."
He explained that Marie, Eren's personal maid, had instructed all the servants not to disturb him, as he was sleeping.
This news made several of the knights blink in surprise.
"Already...? It's still early evening, isn't it?"
"Well... I guess it makes sense," Spoke Kristoff as he joined them.
"Fighting a Level 5 monster at his age... that must've taken a heavy toll on him."
