### Current Timeline

#### Reset Arc

The evening of the family meeting, Roberto knocks on the door of the study, bringing tea for Shuri only to find the room empty.

A few days into the extended family members staying at the estate, her ladyship calls for a meeting with the head maid, Gwen, the knight commander Alberon and himself. Shuri concludes that there is a certain unrest within the household, seeing as Alberon directly requested a meeting, instead of going through Roberto as is proper. Alberon confesses that he had thought that Shuri had been purposely turning a blind eye towards the level of discipline Valentino von Neuschwanstein had been subjecting Elias von Neuschwanstein to. Alberon continues on to say he requested a meeting with him to express his concerns, to which Roberto adamantly denies hearing anything from Alberon nor anything regarding the young master. Roberto goes on to confess he had thought Shuri had called a meeting to inform them of her departure, causing Gwen to express her own confusion. They start arguing before Shuri stops them and instructs him to summon all the staff.

Following Shuri's confrontation with the extended family, she and Roberto report that everyone related to the incident had either left or was fired. Their meeting is chaotically interrupted by the arrival of the children, and the two quickly take their leave. In the staff's lounge, as they are going through the aftermath of losing so many staff members, Gwen shares with him how she herself had struggled with becoming head maid at such a young age, how she empathized with her ladyship's and wished to do what she could to help her. Although they had been scolded, she was glad to hear that Shuri trusted them. Roberto agrees with her, adding how relieved he is that the children and the mistress continue to smile despite such schemes from their relatives.
