An assassination attempt forces Neuvillette and Wriothesley to work together. But the case ends up getting a lot more complicated than they had thought it would. And so does their feelings towards each other.

This is the Part 2 of The Iudex's Day Off! If you have yet to read that, please do so first before starting this one! This takes place after the end of Fontaine's archon quest. Be mindful of spoilers! "Who is here to see me?" "The dendro archon, Monsieur." Sedene repeated. "The dendro archon?" "Yes, apparently she brings urgent news." Just what kind of news would be so urgent that it would warrant an archon leaving their nation?

Wriothesley takes it upon himself to investigate the sudden disappearances of melusines when Sigewinne doesn't return from her sudden day off. This leads him straight to the Chief Justice himself, only to find that Neuvillette too seems to have taken a few days off. Warning! This story, while just like my other stories, doesn't have smut, unlike my previous stories it is on the more mature side, here and there (mostly some jokes). Read at your own discretion. The title may change. OMG I'm obsessed with this ship! This story is getting written ASAP! Credit for cover goes to @Liiiiiiimsao on Twitter
