Silence persisted for a few seconds. From their expression, rather than trusting Nayta, they decided to just trust themselves. Due to the difference in perspective, two groups were formed. One was the group that agreed with Nayta's suggestion of staying together, while the other was planning to try and exit the castle.
"Sorry, Nayta. However, we just can't stay still and wait for a rescue that we don't know when will come," Helviree explained, a sorry expression covering her face. "We'd rather find an exit ourselves and call for help."
Those who agreed with Helviree were Ejderha, Emily, Rana, Jasmine, Lily, and Rose. When nobody else tried to move to their side, they left the dining hall and scattered.
"... We can only pray for their safety..." Nayta muttered under her breath.
