章 213: Judge a book from the cover

I love strawberries. I don't have a clue about how these can be so red since it's the middle of February, but they're just perfect as the first strawberries of the year.

They're sour, but I can just add honey to make them taste sweeter. The aroma is bold, so much that I can sense it if there are some in a room right from the door.

Oh, I'll soon be able to have them more often, won't I?

Those came from the south: a messenger brought them with him while delivering a missive for the Lord of Kyre. What a surprise!

I reminded Alexander to reward a smart messenger that thought about a detail like fresh fruits on his way back. He also rode during the night to deliver them before they got ruined.

«For sure, you know how to choose your employees,» I comment while digging in.

I will get fat, like this, but I don't care. Right now, I'd eat strawberries until exploding.
