บท 211: A Small Break

"It is very tasty!"

Erika was wolfing down the stew without any manners, as she sat at my side. She was enjoying the meal I had prepared for her. I think this might be the first time she eats something I've cooked. I suppose it probably means a lot for her.

"Is that so? I am glad you like it."

"It is amazing you can cook already, Blake! You will make a perfect husband!"

"…Again with that."

I sighed as I averted my gaze from Erika, who was looking at me as if I were a rare prize. For a while now she had been obsessed with things like these. It reminded me a bit of Elizabeth. Do girls in this country are taught to say such strange things? I don't know what to say but I shall ignore her for now.

"Y-Yeah, I guess…" Said Eric.

"But shouldn't the husband hunt? It's the wife the one that cooks… He hasn't hunted a single thing today!" Said Chris.
