"Lord Robin, we need to talk!"
"…?" Robin's soul sense immediately swept outward, picking up a group of people standing in front of the apartment. At their forefront stood Althera—and judging by her expression, she was clearly not in a good mood. "Tsk… Why is this day refusing to end?"
Then—whoosh~—with a simple, almost casual wave of his hand, the arrays were dismantled one after another, and the door opened. Robin straightened slightly and stood there with a smile overflowing with courtesy and respect. "The Monarch herself visiting my humble apartment? I'm truly honored beyond words!"
Step.
Althera entered without offering a single additional word. As usual, she carried her small sword in her left hand. Almost instantly, she swept the entire apartment with both her spiritual sense and her large, observant eyes. Curiosity filled them—especially since she had tried more than once to pierce the arrays with her senses earlier… and failed every time.
