No lights were turned on at 6 Saint Derain Square because of the disturbance outside. A moment later, Shade lowered his voice and said to the princess and the maids:

"It seemed The Church's Ring Arcanists were carrying out a mission in Saint Derain Square, but not on our side. Something happened at the neighbor's house across the square. Judging by the Elemental Reaction, the person leading them was at least Eleventh Ring. Something major must have happened nearby."

The last time such a serious incident had occurred on a night in Saint Derain Square was during the first "Dice Story Collection" incident at the turn of autumn and winter in Year 1853:

"I'm not sure whether they're containing a relic or pursuing cultists, but it has nothing to do with us. The Church's team has already brought the situation under control, so let's just pretend we don't know what happened."

Leisha stood at the bedroom door, worriedly wrapping an arm around Angelina, who was still hugging a pillow. Both Her Royal Highnesses the Princess had their long hair loose, and both were looking at the same person.

"They won't come knocking on our door in the middle of the night, will they?"

"Probably not. Even if they investigate afterward, they'll wait until daylight unless it's some special case, like the plague on Snow Mountain."

He turned away from the curtains.

"You don't need to leave this house. Even if someone comes to the door, I can casually open a doorway for you and let you hide inside for the time being. But since we still don't know what's going on, have the three maids stay in the Side Bedroom next door. Leisha, have Angelina stay in this room too."

That was practically an announcement that the "nightlife was over,"
