Chapter 48: The Watch Duty

(There. Go over there, Hobu) (Lyan)

Following Lyan's words, the hobgoblin changed his direction and went in the direction Lyan mentioned. Lyan is currently watching over his shadow hobgoblin as he ordered him to explore the perimeter.

(Ah... Instant Noodles, are the best...) (Lilith)

Lilith's sleep-talking sounded inside Lyan's mind.

The spirits inside the grimoire's space are currently sleeping after getting full from eating the instant noodles they found inside Lyan's room. Lilith, Griselda, and Arturia slept in the living room, while the others went to their respective rooms.

Since he's currently on the watch duty, Lyan decided to observe from the hobgoblin's sight as the hobgoblin explores the perimeter to prevent himself from getting bored.

*Rustle!* *Rustle!* *Rustle!*

Rustling sound appeared from the bushes.

The hobgoblin stopped its tracks because of the rustling sound. With his sword ready, the hobgoblin slowly approached the source of the sound.

*Whoosh!*
