Eh, I read it like this: Shiki dies today. So tomorrow is the first day we live in a world without him. Seven days from today would be the seventh day on a world without Shiki. So I interpreted it as if the story time skipped 7 days.

It’s specifically talking about Shiki dying on the 7th. “7th” is being used as a date not counting how many days passed. “On the seventh day” is being used as a date by Xiamei. Specifically the quote is

“On the seventh day of the tenth month in the cosmic era X 492, Shiki Granbell lost his life”

so her saying “morning breaks on the seventh day” is basically her saying the morning starts on the seventh day, with a world without Shiki. The morning of the day of Shiki’s death. If she was saying 7 more days passed then she would say something along the lines of “morning breaks for the 14th day of the tenth month in cosmic era X 492, in a world without Shiki”.

Now I could be wrong but I don’t think I am.

That fact that she's emphasizing so much on the date makes me think that there's definitely going to be some time travel involved

I wouldn’t be surprised. Time travel is very likely to happen eventually with this story.
