"Ah......."
Back on the spaceship and looking at the Star Ocean outside the window, Ann let out a silent sigh. At this moment, a voice rang in her ear.
"Princess."
"Ah, Audrey......."
Ann turned to look, seeing Audrey quietly standing not too far away, looking at her.
"Has the knight returned?"
"The master has not returned."
"I see....... I'm sorry, could you pour me a cup of tea?"
"Of course."
Upon hearing Ann's request, Audrey nodded. Then she left the room and returned a moment later, carrying a pot of black tea, placing the teapot in front of Ann.
"Please."
"Hmm....... Thank you, Audrey, can we chat?"
"Of course."
Seeing Ann initiating the conversation, Audrey was somewhat surprised, but still nodded. Meanwhile, Ann sat on the sofa, lifted the black tea in her hand, and stared at the ripples wavering on the surface.
