　He had gone out and had not come back.

　I think it's because they heard about the cat beastmen that they are even more anxious about the possibility that ...... they might have lost Athos. I, too, am very anxious.

　He probably went out to look for Mr. Athos, that's what he told me. I got scared. I wondered if Gaius would disappear, too. The thought of that made me nervous, and I realized that I, too, had run out of the way of Mr. Lan's words to stop me.

　All I could think about was Gaius. I just had to catch up with Gaius, that's all I could think about.
