That evening, although I don't know if it was really nighttime, Fatima allowed the three of us to rest. Fatima merged with her clones and closed her eyes for a moment before sitting down on the spot. As soon as she gave permission, Ember and Fang dropped like corpses and fell into sleep.
Not only do they have a lot of bruises, but they also seem both mentally and physically exhausted. Since the two fell down on the cold stone ground, I moved them individually to the portable bed I kept inside my storage ring.
After laying them down side-by-side, they seemed so deeply asleep that even if I did something, they probably wouldn't wake up. Of course, I wouldn't do something shameless like that. Even if I were to attempt it, at least I would do so when they're awake.
After that, I got nothing else to do. I wasn't that sleepy yet, so I just blankly stared at Fatima who was sitting quietly by the side. Having noticed my stare, she smiled and asked.
