44 Chapter 44

After a restful night's sleep, Klaus awoke refreshed, except for one minor inconvenience – his stomach. A series of groans escaped his lips as the gnawing hunger, exacerbated by the previous day's missed meals, intensified. He stumbled to the bathroom, tidied himself up, and then hurried to the first-floor canteen.

Mirabelle had informed him that the Lionhart youth training ground boasted four active canteens, the closest being located on the dormitory's first floor. As Klaus entered the canteen, he was pleasantly surprised by the aroma of food wafting through the air, indicating that breakfast was already prepared despite the early hour. His delight increased upon finding himself the sole patron inside. He wasted no time in approaching the buffet, selecting a large plate, and filling it with a mountain of food.
