The Catacombs, Slera's Castle—Hallways [ Night ].
Soon after leaving the library, Shinto steadily made his way down towards the first floor of the castle to head back to the guest room. However, whilst walking on the carpets of the castle, a certain thought came to mind.
"...hmm. Although I said I would inform Kaisus, how exactly would I explain it to him?" Tilting his head at the question before him, he considered the options available.
If he were to tell the news of his mentor's death, it would mean being barraged by the countless questions as to how he had found out of such details. However, that was not the problem.
Instead, the issue was, Shinto did not know how to approach the topic,
"Argh... This is hard," he scruffled his hair whilst pondering on the matter. "I can't say out of nowhere that Lier had died, right? So... There has to be a better way of telling him instead of it being out of the blue."
