Palmer, being an accomplice to that night's events, found himself under house arrest as well. However, this guy was completely unaware of it. Palmer believed that Lebius had finally had a change of heart and was giving him a long holiday.
"It seems our boss isn't as heartless and rigid as I thought," Palmer remarked about Lebius.
Bologue couldn't bring himself to shatter this poor devil's illusion and tell him that this wasn't a vacation but house arrest, and who knows, by tomorrow the two of them might end up in the Black Prison together.
Lately, Palmer has been eating and sleeping a lot, blissfully happy. Bologue, who could barely be considered his roommate, discovered that Palmer was truly carefree. So carefree, in fact, that Bologue wondered if this guy had some intellectual issues.
"Hey? Why are you standing there dumbfounded?" Palmer frowned. "You're reading first thing in the morning? You're just too studious."
"N-no... nothing."
