Back at the manor, Rory had just finished dinner.
Instead of returning to her room immediately after dinner, she remained seated on the living room sofa, absentmindedly playing with Terry while holding her light-brain.
Yuel sat beside her.
Watching her distracted state, he shook his head helplessly.
"Rory, if you're worried about Vincent, I can have someone bring him back, alright?"
"I'm not worried about him." Rory replied stubbornly.
Ever since they had returned from the Divine Fallen Battlefield, Xarion had already snuck back to the manor.
Yuel had also checked with the military earlier—Vangar had returned to the army and was currently supervising Aren's training.
Only Vincent remained completely unreachable. He still hadn't replied to the message Rory had sent him.
She had even contacted Lola, only to discover she had gone off-world to another planet for fun and wasn't in the Firebird Clan at all.
She didn't even know whether Vincent had returned yet.
