"Hey Victor, why don't you get some rest? Your eyes are heavy, and you haven't had any sleep yet. We'll take care of things here while you rest!" Thomas expressed concern, noticing Victor's exhaustion from two consecutive sleepless nights due to his overwhelming worry for the children.
"N-no, I can't rest yet, especially without any news about the kids yet!" Victor insisted, though the dryness of his lips betrayed the toll of his continuous search for the children and his persistent questioning of Thunder about the tracing progress of the location of the kids.
