Hectically Strange

(Hm?)

In the middle of the night, Raphael opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the ceiling of his parents' room. He saw it almost every night, every time he visited his Mom and Mother for their nightly routine. But he noticed some changes, such as the new lighting. 

But Raphael found it somewhat peculiar. He remembered that he should be at the mansion in the dungeon to spend the night with Czarina and Inari, but he was in their main mansion for unknown reason. 

His current position was not the only thing that baffled him; he seemed to be out of control with his own body as well. He tried to move his arms or get up to observe the surroundings, but it did not seem to be working. 

(What is happening to my body...?) 

Along with it, he discovered that he could not utter a word as well. He could even cast no skill or spell. His abilities should have prevented him from being controlled, but the current situation was not in his favor.
