CHAPTER 61 – THE SAME NAME, PART 5

The next day, Ratoka dragged his heavy feeling body even though he felt exhausted and slightly sick, and brought some of the seeds he picked yesterday with him to meet Elise

The seeds Ratoka had were about the size of his hand, and they were pinkish in color While they can’t be eaten raw, they’re really sweet and delicious if they’re boiled

Certain plants are good for recovering body strength when eaten, Ratoka reht him those words Since Elise has a weak body, he thinks they’ll be perfect for her

While sticking to the shadows as much as possible to avoid the heat, Ratoka wondered if Elise would still be expecting hi

However, when he arrived at the garden, he saw Elise looking down from her ith a dejected expression on her face, and his heartbeat increased rapidly

“Elise-sama!”

He rushed towards herand called out her name, and when Elise noticed Ratoka, her expression was one of surprise and joy

“Elise-sama!”

The greeting he got in return was the exact sah he used to hate it so much, maybe it’s because of Elise’s overjoyed expression, Ratoka didn’t eventhat Eliza changed his name on her ohen Ratoka thinks that it’s Elise’s name, he doesn’t mind so much anymore

“I’…… and I didn’t come to visit”

“No, don’t worry about it ……Since you haven’t been to seehappened to you……”

Her relief at seeing hi suilt inside his chest He made Elise worry about him, and that he also doubted whether Elise would worry about hiain he lowered his head and apologized

Then, he held out his gift in an attempt to make himself feel better

“Uathered it for you”

He grasped the seeds tightly while his heart started beating faster again Since Elise’s roo to have to toss them up to her

What if she said she doesn’t need such a thing, his heart was pounding After all, she’s still a noble What if she doesn’t like these seeds, that evenat

While Ratoka aiting nervously, Elise tilted her head in confusion Then, to the shi+vering Ratoka, Elise asked a question in wonder

“Gathering? Er, what’s that mean?”

It was such an unexpected response, that Ratoka’s brain could no longer process as going on

“Ah, ……Eh?”

Ratoka could only reply in a goofy voice, and look at Elise blankly Silence fell for a moment between them
