"... I apologise... My behaviour was not appropriate..."
"..." — Both witnesses, the announcing guard and Paige, shared a concerned glance, feeling sorry to receive unnecessary apologies.
"... What is the matter, Paige?" — Aware of their discomfort, the Duke asked slowly regaining his composure.
"Ah... I came to inform you that I have placed the order to the crafter, and he said the item would be ready in two days..."
"Hmm? Only two?"
"Yes! Apparently, he foresaw the need for the replacement of the paper so in his free time he dedicated himself to craft more since it took a lot of preparation to make the first pile in a short time. He has been making them gradually and believes the amount he piles in the next two days will be good enough to last a while for the Lady."
"... I see... Gustav has been very thoughtful... I must thank him properly when I see him." — Orland announced, thankful for the crafter's efficiency.
