Arthur watched the young woman eat her meal as he took a bit of his own. The taste was still the same: nothing. If he ate meat, it would taste like a piece of plastic. If he ate soup, it would taste like hot water.

Little Yin seemed to have calmed down as she ate the stew that Arthur had given her. He kept some food in his subspace whenever he visited the inn so he was prepared for a few nights in the wilderness.

"Do you want to talk about it?" he asked, watching her gulp down her food before staring at it. Then, to Arthur's surprise, she shook her head in refusal. "Are you fine with what you saw?"

"Do you mean the thing about using my powers?" asked Yin, to which Arthur nodded. "The last time I was pursued, I was saved thanks to you. You could have thrown me at Babo and left with the reward, but you did not. If I grow strong, I will repay that debt."
