I tapped the call button on the laptop, initiating a connection to Princess Myrcella. To my surprise, she picked up almost immediately with no delay and hesitation.
With the advancements in technology, smartphones, laptops and computers now came equipped with a convenient feature which was video calling. This function allowed not just voice but also live visuals, enabling a more personal and face-to-face interaction through the screen.
Because of that, I wasn't just going to speak with her. I would also be able to see her.
And sure enough, the moment the connection was established, her camera lit up and her face appeared on the screen.
"Huh? Why'd you call? Is something wrong?" she asked with a casual tone, her expression relaxed. Judging from the faint steam wafting through the air and the slick sheen on her skin, she seemed to be enjoying herself in a warm bath. "And where have you even been? You've vanished for four whole months. I was beginning to worry, you know."
