"It wasn't just the look! Good, it wasn't just the look!
I flatten the dish in front of me as Morgen says happily.
"Sometimes it does, it just looks delicious, but if you try it, is that it? That's the dish! Good, that wasn't it, Almark!
"Yeah, Morgen. Okay, so let's swallow what's in your mouth and then we'll talk."
"This is next! Uh, surprise! I didn't think it tasted like this! It's good because it's delicious, but this flavor is unexpected, Almark!
"Yeah. You don't have to shake it on me."
Wendy stares with a much happier smile at Morgen, who carries the dishes into her mouth one after the other as she shudders.
Shortly after the meal began, he saw a lot of knives and forks lined up in front of him, and Morgen raised one of them high.
"I only use this one!
and proclaimed grandiose.
Bad, I didn't understand the table manners, and Almark, worried inside, was impressed by Morgen's manhood.
Some of the servants might have frowned, but Wendy laughed and was happy, and when she saw that Wendy, Ward was happy with tears.
It's good to be here with Morgen, Almark felt smug.
I don't have the power to make people smile like this. Morgen has the power to naturally soothe a person's mind, even if he's not after it himself.
"Are you eating Almark, too?
Wendy spoke to me, and Almark nodded.
"Yeah, sure. They're all delicious."
Honestly, Almark doesn't care much about food, and as a mercenary, he doesn't know much about the value of the dishes that are served right now because he has lived and grew up with something that builds up in his belly more than flavors.
I'm not really sure if it tastes good or not. I guess my tongue isn't keeping up with the complex flavors, analyze it myself.
But you can't let that disappoint Wendy, who looks happy at Morgen.
Almark smiles and carries the dish to his mouth.
"Wendy's the one who's gonna be fine if you don't eat it."
"When I saw the two of you, my chest was full"
I joke and say that, and Wendy laughs.
"Hey, tell me. I don't know how you two got here."
"It's not even a big deal. I drove a white horse from Galentore."
"Oh, that! Wendy, Almark was amazing!
Morgen speaks up.
"I rolled up the money to ride the white horse car from the Dean of the Academy."
"What, from the Dean of the College?
"Morgen, please don't mislead me."
They told Wendy this, which was a journey in turn. Wendy listened with interest to each and every one of them and laughed with sincere pleasure.
"Oh, yeah. Almark, look, that one."
After a brief talk, Morgen says so to Almark and looks him in the eye.
"Oh, yeah."
Almark nods and gets up.
"Uh, my baggage."
When I say that, Ward tells the servant to bring me the package as soon as he can.
Gratefully receive and stick your hands in your luggage.
"Er... there it is"
Almark took a book out of it.
"I brought Wendy a present."
"What, a book?
Confused, Wendy receives the book from Almark.
"Thank you. What kind of book is that?"
As Wendy tries to look at the back cover of the book, Morgen grins, pointing at the signs sandwiched in the book.
"Wendy, open it up here."
"Huh?"
"Come on, come on."
"Ugh, yeah."
Wendy opens the Frightening and Signs page.
"... ah"
A bright blue embossed flower was pinched there.
"Oh, no..."
Wendy doubted her own eyes.
"These flowers..."
"It was blooming by a forest creek on Norc Island."
says Almark.
"I really wanted Wendy to see it."
"Almark's behavior since he found the flower was amazing. Let's go see Wendy! Say."
"Morgen, don't mess around."
"'Cause that was amazing. Keep it up, hurry back to the dorm, look at the map, plan it, and take the money away from the dean."
"So that expression is misleading in many ways"
Almark and Morgen laugh and say each other, waiting for Wendy to react, staring at the embossed flower.
"It's nuts, tatia oi..."
Wendy shrugged.
Summer symbol of Norc Island.
And for Wendy, a symbol of the vacation I was looking forward to before this happened.
That suddenly appeared in front of her, who had given up nothing more fun, along with two classmates who she thought would never see during her vacation.
From its eyes staring at the embossed flower, tears overflowed again, spilling.
"Both of you... how many times are you gonna make me cry today"
I saw those tears. The two faces look worried cloudy.
Wendy laughed gently at the two of them, weeping.
"Thanks.... thank you both so much"
Seeing Wendy smile, the two boys grinned face-to-face as relieved.
