Chafne was aware of the anomalies on her side, but Shane was completely in the dark, having no idea what was happening.
Coupled with the various odd events occurring that day, Shane didn't want to think too much about it anymore; he just wanted to go back and get a good rest.
So, after dumping all the matters of the Sand Scale Clan's settlement in Enchanting Demon City on Liel, Shane turned on his heel and left, with Liel wearing a particularly disgruntled expression. He returned to his room, locked the door, and went straight to bed.
As for how much attention the news of Chafne allowing the Sand Scale Clan to settle in Enchanting Demon City garnered, that was no longer Shane's concern.
That day, Shane never left his room again; aside from eating and drinking, he was almost unseen.
It wasn't that he was truly too exhausted to move; it was mainly because it was a good opportunity to avoid Liel's challenge, and Shane was naturally willing to play the part of an invalid.
