Chapter 26 (2/2)

“I’ve said this before, but is it actually that good? I mean, it ain’t bad, but…”

“Yeah! It’s yummy!”

Back when she was a princess, Fii had never really cared much about food, but recently everything seemed to taste particularly delicious.

Perhaps the two weeks in the villa and the exertion as a knight apprentice had taught her the joys of eating.

Whatever the reason, the food was delicious to Fii.

But one night, just as she had finished one plate, she stopped.

“Huh? Are you done?” asked Remié.

Normally she would be helping herself to a large plate of seconds.

“Yeah. Crow-san told me to try and keep my current figure.”

She actually wanted to eat more, but she endured for the Captain’s sake.

“I see.”

“Your training really has taken a weird direction, huh.”

Normally it was common sense to eat a lot and grow as large as possible.

Although there were a few exceptions, knights would fundamentally gain power proportional to their size. Gorms was a good example of that.

“Really?”

“Really.”

Fii looked on enviously at the stew Slad was eating, but he pretended not to notice as he nodded in reply.
