Five days have passed since I woke up, but I was still forbidden to leave the mansion.
The fact that he lost consciousness and didn't wake up again reminded his parents of the time a year and a half ago, and they seem to be cautious.
People around me may think it's boring, but I personally don't think so.
Because this quiet time helped me organize my memories.

What was the sight you saw in that forest?
And who was the last voice you heard?

That voice said to me, "Remember."
I still can't remember what I need to remember.
Even so, that voice sounds familiar to me, and even when I remember it, I don't feel any fear, so it might not be a bad opponent.

As I sorted through my memories, I came to the conclusion that I must go to that forest again.
I'm sure that what happened in that forest, and the owner of the last voice, must be the key to going back in time and losing the magical power. Possibly, it may also be a chance to regain magical power... I even find such a hope.

It would be difficult to go to that place again right now.
I have to convince my parents and His Highness to do that, and if something happens, I will worry and cause trouble for everyone.

-Even so, I have to go.
I finally found some clues.

Standing by the window of the room, looking out at the garden and pondering deeply, I felt a soft touch against my leg.
I squat down to follow that feeling, and my clear eyes and gaze meet.

"meow"

And there was another surprise.
Right after His Highness returned, Kuro suddenly appeared. He got out of the black bed in his room and started walking, jumped on the bed where I was sleeping as usual, curled up and tried to sleep again.
Surprised and bewildered by the sudden appearance of Kuro, then hugged Kuro from joy and relief and shouted "Kuro! Where have you been! ’, but he refused, twisting his body reluctantly, probably because he wanted to sleep.

Still, I was really happy that Kuro came back to me again.

I asked Kuro about what happened in that forest, but he only squealed "Meow meow" cutely.

Maybe... If you rely on Theodore-sama, there is a high chance that he will understand what Kuro is saying. He's vague and murky, but I think he can understand the language of spirits.

However, I also hesitate to meet Theodore-sama.
That's all, Theodore-sama's state at that time was different from Theodore-sama I always knew.

――Did Lord Theodore and I promise something in the past?

I don't know if I should ask that question.
I wonder if there is something in the past that only Theodore-sama remembers that I don't remember.
You were introduced to Theodore-sama after you became His Highness' fiancée, but is it possible that you met him before that?

When I was thinking about what I should do, I heard a knock on the door of the room, so I answered "yes" from inside the room.

"You can see the customer."
"Eh, thank you."

I heard the voice of the maid from the back of the door, so I replied.
So, did the promised time come? These days, I have a lot to think about, and I feel like time flies by.

Okay, let's go.
I took a deep breath in order to refresh my depressed feelings, and after stroking Kuro once more before leaving the room, I headed for the door to welcome the guest.

"Rachel-san, it's been a long time! I was very worried when I heard that you collapsed.
Is your body okay now? "
"Yeah, I'm fine now. Thank you for coming all the way to see me even though you're busy, Anna-san."
