Chapter 1-3 (1/2)

In losing weight, limited caloric intake… No! It’s exercise!

After getting used to moving around from running, let’s try out some sports.

Having decided as such, first is stretching.

Bodybuilding is the most important part of exercise after all.

I go ahead and try stretching my body and, this body is flexible, flexible.

How smoothly my body stretches.

Yo, yo, to. Un. My body moves smoothly in just the way I thought.

Isn’t this a great body.

While having such a potential and not exercising, what a waste.

I don’t want to damage my knees, so for the first day I started from walking, but as expected, my state is very good.

I took a break after one hour of walking, but my my mood was elevated, a sign my body still had an urge to move.

However, that’s all for today.

After finishing my post-exercise cool-down and stretching, I took a relieving shower.

“Ya, Tou-sama.”

While passing by father, I gave a refreshing greeting.

Father made a blank expression.

Come to think of it, I was never this energetic at noon before.

The me before would be in the middle of eating sweets on my bed at this time.

After exercising, I become thirsty.

Usually I would have some homemade lemonade with lots of honey without hesitation, but today I drew some water from underground and drank it.

Puha-! It’s pleasantly cool and refreshing.

Pure water without any impurities is as expected, delicious. Having been blessed with this nature yet having not taking advantage of it until now, how wasteful.

“Young master, If you would say it to us, we would draw fresh water for you at any time.”

The maid, Mary, called to me while watching me draw water.

“No, I can do this much myself. I’m always causing trouble for you, so please let me take care of my own business myself.”

“No, it’s not trouble at all.”

Mary made a face like she had been doused by cold water.

Now that I think of it, I have a feeling this is the first time I have shown any consideration toward the maids.

Our Helan territory is famous for its beautiful nature.

A vast stretch of land abundant with vegetation, with over ten natural flower gardens within the territory.

The father of our country, the first king said, “If I’m going to die, I want it to be here,” expressing his love for this land.

However, The amount of people in this time period with a love of nature is decreasing.

Visitors to our territory decreases by the year; additionally, it possesses no unique local product.

Residents are moving into another territory when experiencing financial difficultly.

Our territory progressively declined in this way.

While it would fine if we received assistance from the king, sadly our house possesses no such connections.

Well, I’ll look for a hint for solving that along the way.

First is taking care of myself.
