A dinner with the guests

After receiving the Earl of Monarey, we joined Silvia and Yul in the sitting room. When we arrived, there was this strange air between them, but I ignored it. Klaus and Claude didn't seem to notice — or maybe they chose not to. 

The servants served us tea, and we talked about almost everything that I missed in the five years. They shared their own stories, misadventures, hardships, and everything. I had fun listening, but at the same time, felt a little regretful that I wasn't there to witness it. 

Yulis, Silvia, Klaus, and Claude had matured for sure. They grew as a person in these five years, holding equal power and influence over the empire. 

We didn't notice the time and only we realized it when Fabian told us it was time for dinner. With that being said, we followed him to have dinner. Sam and Law were already there, staring in our direction without saying a word.
