Angel did not dare draw any conclusions about Toby's condition either. Perhaps there were other reasons it had remained unconscious.
For example, perhaps that giant serpent had done something to it earlier.
Or perhaps Toby had done something itself.
Angel carefully recalled what had happened. Although Toby had appeared within that giant serpent's territory, and the little snakes around it had been hostile toward Toby, the giant serpent itself did not seem to have attacked Toby.
Even if Gravity Veins had protected Toby, they were nothing at all against the giant serpent's strength and defenses.

Moreover, when Angel had fled with Toby, the giant serpent had launched a frenzied attack on him without hesitation. It had clearly treated him differently from Toby. In the end, even after Angel left Shadow Cave, the giant serpent had pursued him outside. Its hatred was plain to see.
What twist had occurred in between?
The more Angel thought about it, the tighter his brows furrowed. After hesitating for a while, he decided to ask Sanders for help.
Although Sanders had acted tsundere for most of the day earlier, when Angel actively sought his help, he no longer put on that aloof front and fixed his gaze on Toby.

Kant said, "Your mentor is right. Toby may simply be sleeping too deeply."
Angel nodded, seeming to accept that answer, but unease
