Time passed very quickly without Lawrend and Humility realizing it.
By the time Lawrend stopped, it was already the next day.
"It's taking too long nowadays," Lawrend muttered to himself.
Humility was sleeping with her arms on the desk. Lawrend took out a towel from his Storage Ring and wrapped it around her shoulders. He took one last look before leaving the room with a fresh set of clothing.
Lawrend started to realize that time felt shorter for him. If before he only needed a couple of hours, he now needed a full day to satisfy his maids. He couldn't help but imagine how long it would take in the future.
Lawrend looked around the hallway and decided to find Elena's room. He wanted to check on his sons and daughters.
…
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
"Who is it?" Elena asked from inside the room.
"It's me."
Silence immediately followed, and then a sudden sound of heavy footsteps.
"Master!"
