Something That Cannot Be Delayed

Ethan felt something poking the side of his face, forcing him to open his eyes slowly.

His entire body felt heavy, which was a sensation that he had already experienced in the past.

“You must really like sleeping on the floor of the common room, Ethan,” George said in a teasing tone. “It makes me want to try it as well.”

It took Ethan a few seconds to process what his senior was talking about. However, after seeing his Manor Mates looking at him with amused expressions on their faces, he finally understood what happened to him.

“George, can you please pick me up and place me on the sofa,” Ethan said. “Although there’s carpet here, the floor is still hard.”

The Third Year chuckled after hearing Ethan’s request and tried to pick the young man up, but to his surprise, Ethan’s body was as heavy as lead.

“Noah, a bit of help,” George stated. “Ethan is so heavy. I can’t lift him alone.”
