Duke Kling looked over the messy carpet for a while, but didn't say anything.
"Are you okay, Sir? Were you hurt?"
"… Oh no, I'm alright. Didn't you get hurt?"
"I'm fine…"
Colin looked at Iric who was cleaning up the floor with a worried look on his face.
Although he reached out again to help him, Iric politely refused his offer.
"It seems dangerous to leave lots of broken pieces unattended. I think it's better to call a servant and change the carpet."
"Sure, go ahead."
"Let me call the servant to go get some water and new carpet! Wait a minute!"
Then Colin, who thought that he had work to do now, quickly stood up and left the office.
Iric stretched his back after collecting all the broken pieces on one side.
Kling was still keeping his eye on the carpet. Iric, who had been watching him since he was young, noticed that he was uncomfortable.
"What's the matter with you, sir?"
Duke Kling tilted his head to one side for a moment and then shook his hand strongly.
