"Master exhausted his mana," Markus explained with a bitter smile.
"I can see who you all learn it from - Marie and yourself, that is," Grace derided Markus sarcastically. "Leave him to me, I'll take him to his room."
"Master is quite heavy..." Markus muttered.
"I've carried heavier," Grace scoffed and strung Guy over her shoulders like a sack of rice and walked towards his room.
