章 56: C56 - Into the Breach

We went to the sitting room to greet them and discuss any final preparations. Once we were settled and appeared regal, Aldo brought the Ravens in. They looked sleepy. After all, they had traveled all day yesterday and then went to bed late. 

Hopefully, that wouldn't cause them to be injured in the dungeon. We had discussed how dangerous dungeons were. Perhaps I should find a source of caffeine in this world. 

In my previous world, stimulants like caffeine or even amphetamines were heavily used. The ship doctors would constantly dose us to ensure we could maintain the grueling work pace of eighteen-hour days for months in a row. I shelved the thought for now.

Before anyone spoke, I noticed Rosalia examining me closely. I realized she must have felt the wards I had placed. Being unable to conceal them, unlike my mother or sister.
