As I was lying on the bed in a daze, the sun had set before I knew it.

By the time I noticed, it was already completely dark, so I couldn't tell if it was early evening, just after sunset, or if the night was already late. However, if twilight had passed, it was highly likely that Sodi had returned to the castle.

Coi sat up and left the bedroom. As she wandered through the castle... just as she expected, she saw the figure of the elderly Sodi walking.

At almost the same moment Coi recognized him, it seemed he had also spotted Coi... Sodi turned and immediately rushed over to her.

"Oh, Your Majesty, are you awake? There is a matter I wished to discuss with you."

"Is it about that outfit?"

Coi couldn't help but ask about the "dress" without even waiting for Sodi to finish speaking.

"...No, that matter is still... a ways off, I'm afraid."

However, Sodi's reply was not a good one.

It had only been a few days since she had instructed Sodi and the others to reinvestigate... something she would have realized if she had thought about it calmly.
