36 Confronting Chris

"Ely, the sautéed fish here is also delicious."

The day after proposing the matter of becoming the adopted son to Serena's brother, Oliver.

After finishing the morning training, I was enjoying lunch with Serena. Well, it's enjoyable, right? It is, but...

"Um, well... I can eat by myself..."

"Of course, I understand that. However, showing affection between engaged partners like this is very important, don't you think? Right, Mir?"

"I won't deny that, but, Your Highness Elysion seems a bit troubled. In that case, let Mir assist with the meal in place of the young lady..."

"Impossible!, go away."

And so, while Serena was trying to feed me fish cut neatly with a fish spoon, Mir, for some reason, tried to interfere and feed me instead. The two of them seemed to get along well today too, but during their exchange, I couldn't bring myself to eat. Please, let me eat by myself.
