Perhaps when the night truly grew late, he might feel something different and suppress everything here.
Sure enough, when the night was quiet and deep, a faint rustling came from the room next door. Uchiha Hikaru found it very strange.
"What's going on? There isn't even anyone talking. He shouldn't be plotting anything, should he?" Uchiha Hikaru found it even more peculiar, but he decided to keep listening.
Before long, the rustling completely stopped. He slowly relaxed, thinking he could finally go to sleep.
"No, it's precisely because the sound stopped that this feels most abnormal. Why should I be able to sleep peacefully?" At that moment, Uchiha Hikaru instead questioned himself.
He decided to turn around quietly. He immediately got up and prepared to see what exactly had happened next door.
He walked to the door and prepared to knock. After three thuds, the door still did not open.
"Second Prince, are you in there? Could you be asleep?" At first, Uchiha Hikaru thought that was the case. After all that tossing about, the Second Prince must have been exhausted and wanted to sleep immediately.
Besides, Uchiha Hikaru had already anticipated this during the day. The Second Prince had likely expended the most stamina and had been completely unable to withstand Uchiha Hikaru and the First Prince joining forces.
There was no response to the first knock. Uchiha Hikaru turned and prepared to knock a second time, and that second knock completely alerted the many guards.
When he knocked for the third time, even the First Prince upstairs heard it. Yawning, he slowly came down the stairs.
"What's going on? Instead of sleeping this late at night, what are you making such a fuss about?" The First Prince looked like he had a bit of morning temper.
No matter
