The Hero cursed.

"Hero Kael."

The next day, Sarah, who was the last one to be on watch duty yesterday, woke Kael up.

"Hmm?"

Kael responded groggily, his eyes half-opened and his vision hazy.

"The scouts have reported that the beasts have moved. They will be here within a few hours."

Sarah informed, and in an instant, Kael's sleepiness disappeared.

"What? Already?"

"Yes."

Sarah nodded.

Kael looked around and saw all three soldiers staring at him. This made him frown.

"Was I the last one to wake up?"

"You sleep too much."

Lyra nodded.

Aria, however, just chuckled and,

"I don't think the one who doesn't even perform night duty has the right to say this."

"Are you on his side now? Did you fall for his seduction as well?"

"W-What are yo—"

"That's enough. Prepare yourself, we are leaving. You have 15 minutes."

Before the flustered Aria could say anything, Kael ordered as he stood up.
