The rest of the night passed without any further interruptions, the earlier tension slowly fading away as silence settled over the room once again.
And eventually, as time moved forward, both Emilia and Celeste woke up from their sleep, their expressions noticeably calmer than before as they stretched lazily, clearly refreshed from the rest they had managed to get despite everything that had happened.
Leon, who had remained awake the entire time, simply stood near the window as he watched them.
A faint smile appeared on his face as he noticed how relaxed they looked compared to the night before, where danger had been lurking just outside their reach.
Celeste was the first to fully wake up, rubbing her eyes slightly before walking toward Leon.
Her hand instinctively reached out to grab his shoulder as she tried to get a better look at his face, clearly searching for any signs of exhaustion.
