Okay, maybe scratch that about a break! I'm far too invested!

I also realized that I misspelled his name when I was telling you that I was misspelling his name

💀😭😭

 It's Wriothesley.

 I'm gonna try to keep to that but...

 Fun fact: For the first few chapters I just copy-pasted his name from the wiki. This guy's name is just too much for my brain to handle

Wriothesley's POV

 How the hell did he manage to do this?!

 As I went through the documents one by one I was left with more and more shock.

 I feel useless!

 Neuvillette, whose knowledge about Meropide's precise inner workings is limited, did twice the amount of work than I did.

 Because he was bored.

 ...

 And there is not a single mistake to find in here!

 How?!?

 Now I know why the two of them were looking at him like some sort of strange creature.

 He finished all of this in that amount of time?!

 After the budget report?!

 Speaking of the budget report.

 He finished the last two pages of that as well.

 I found them on my desk as I was sorting through the files.

 There was even a little note stuck to it along with a little sticker I'm 100% sure he got from Sigewinne.

 The sticker was a little heart, as for the note... It had only two words on it...

 Love you

 Ugh!

 My heart!

 I want to go down there and kiss my cute dragon!

 You know what?

 That's exactly what I'm gonna do!

 I got up and ran down the stairs.

 Sadly, a certain person's presence ruined my plans.

 "Lady Furina."

 What even is my office at this point?

 Why is she here?

 I'm not even going to ask when she got here.

 "Duke Wriothesley! Come, join us!" She waved invitingly.

 This. Is. My. Office.

 I don't need an invitation.

 And...

 "Why are you all sitting on the ground?"

 "Not enough space on the table." Claude explained.

 "Not enough space?"

 He leaned to the side, revealing the thing they were all sitting around.

 Maps.

 Tens of maps, both old and new.

 Though...

 "Are those maps of Meropide?"

 "Yeah! Aunty Furina brought them!" Claude exclaimed excitedly.
