The Hill Behind the Estate ( 378 )

Armand Region, Armand Estate – The Next Morning

Javier stretched lazily as he woke up. He glanced to his side, noticing the empty space beside him. Liana and Gloria are already up, huh…?

With a sigh, he rolled out of bed and headed to the shower to freshen up. After a quick rinse, he dressed in proper noble attire—simple yet elegant, befitting his status.

Knock, knock.

A familiar, gentle voice came from the other side of the door. "Young master~"

"Ah, Liana. Come in."

Liana stepped inside, her usual calm smile on her face. "Lord Garius is calling for you."

Javier adjusted his cuffs and nodded. "Oh? Alright, let's go. Where's Gloria?"

"She's already waiting for us with Lord Garius," Liana replied.

"Figures," Javier said with a small chuckle. "Alright then, let's not keep them waiting."

With that, he followed Liana out of the room.
