As Simon fell asleep, Sonya and Akaza watched him with slightly strange expressions.
The silence between them lasted for several seconds before Akaza spoke.
"He really fell asleep."
Sonya looked at him.
"Did you expect him to stay awake forever?"
Akaza shrugged.
"Honestly? Yes. He did so many things in the academy to the point that it was looking like he could do almost anything."
"You can't blame me for thinking he would stay awake forever since he also does not trust us."
Sonya looked down at Simon.
"You're not wrong. I would not have been surprised if he remained awake."
The two became silent again.
Simon sleeping made him look younger. Even though he was sleeping, they didn't for once believe that he was harmless.
Lilith was still fresh in their minds and they had no desire to anger a being that could battle Demon Kings.
Simon's usual cold and indifferent eyes were closed, and the sharpness that made others forget his age was no longer present.
