Five days after the audience, there was no nightly duty tonight. Lily's important feminine days had begun yesterday, so I too had been given a holiday. Contact with me was basically forbidden for her as well; she had entered a period of abstinence. I suddenly wondered whether those days had simply never arrived during the journey from the capital of the Marie Kingdom to here, but being the type who can read the room, I asked nothing.
Because medicine production had been halted, my fully operational testers had also stopped production. Stock was already accumulated, so there was no need to make more so soon. I did wonder what would happen to the efficacy if it sat too long, but there was no way to check, so I simply chose to believe it would not change.
