Morning time like that.

Linda, who knows how to distinguish between poisonous and edible mushrooms, went into the forest to pick mushrooms, and Agnes caught several birds with a rapier with Flora’s support magic.

I couldn’t understand at all what kind of magic I received or what movements I had to make to catch a bird, but they say people talk about results.

With those words, I couldn’t believe it when Agnes came right in front of me, carrying several birds that had holes in them and were bleeding.

It seemed like everyone was looking forward to Kailon’s cooking skills this time, but I was the only one who wasn’t looking forward to the dish.

All of the bird’s fur was removed, washed and trimmed, and then a stir-fried dish with vegetables and mushrooms and spices was served. Although I was stimulated by the smell, I could not taste the bird, so I could only smell it with my nose.

I was holding the bowl and slowly moving my head left and right as the scent wafted upward, savoring the scent. Kailon must have noticed that I wasn’t eating and suggested I eat.

“… Saint? Enjoy.”

“Ah, yes, thank you.”

After answering Kailon like that, I put down the bowl in front of him for a moment, said a prayer before the meal, and then carefully picked up the bowl again and struck it with my fork.

Because the meat had gone through a tenderizing process, it had a soft texture without feeling tough or dry.

But that didn’t mean I could feel the taste of the spices roasted with it, so I just felt the texture.

As I narrowed my brows, thinking that the day would come when I would still find chewing rubber delicious, I felt a sense of loss that I did not know why.

It was the same meal as usual, and I had lost my usual sense of taste. I didn’t know why I felt the loss so strongly, so I picked up a crunchy vegetable with a fork and quietly put it in my mouth.

Crunchy.

Crunchy.

Once again, the feeling of loss that follows the sound and texture that can be felt in the mouth, but the taste that cannot be felt.

I was wondering what on earth was the reason for this feeling of loss, and was able to remember that the sweetness I felt yesterday was the cause.

But where did that sweet taste come from?

As I put food in my mouth and repeated the chewing motion, meaninglessly, just in the name of replenishing nutrients, my thoughts flew back to yesterday and I recalled one by one the things I had put in my mouth yesterday.

Food, tonics, and more food.

And at the end, the time when I felt the rich taste was at night… , after Kylon’s goddaughter… After you put semen in your mouth?

After some thought, I found the answer, but I sighed as I thought I had found the answer for nothing.

Why on earth is that? I had this thought, and I was so dumbfounded that I almost sighed, so my eyebrows narrowed.

Since there were a lot of people around, I relaxed my expression again, but I still didn’t know what to say about this feeling, so all I could do was nod, swallow my moans, and stop the slow grinding of my fork.

“… Don’t you eat it?”

As I was waiting to stay still, Kailon’s voice from next to me touched me.

I was already uncomfortable thinking about the taste of Kylon’s semen, but when Kylon spoke to me, I almost reacted sensitively without realizing it.

But I could barely hold it in and just smiled bitterly and answered.

“Haha… It’s morning so I don’t seem to have much of an appetite.”

Just like that, right next to me, Linda was calling out to Kylon as if it was a waste to even hand over his voice to me.

“Kylon! Isn’t this delicious? These are the mushrooms I picked earlier, and these are the ones I usually ate… ”

Kailon was taken aback by Linda’s sudden mushroom lecture, but was soon defeated by her appeal to look at him, so he had no choice but to withdraw his gaze from me.

So, I was at the party again, but I sat alone in a place where no one at the party was paying attention and muttered repeatedly. Finally, I put mushrooms in my mouth, mumbled, swallowed what was in my mouth, and stopped eating.

Even if I ate a lot anyway, it only filled my stomach and didn’t fill my mood.

In fact, it was quite difficult to eat rice with only texture and no taste.

Even though I eat it because I feel a slight taste, I don’t feel any pleasure from eating it because it doesn’t have a very strong taste.

Just like that, breakfast ended as boring as before.

However, unlike before, the feeling of loss was greater.

No matter what I ate, I sighed at the absurdity of feeling a strong sweetness that I had never felt before from Kailon’s semen, and then realized how much I wish it had come from another food. The regret was growing.

“… Thank you for giving us our daily bread.”

After praying after the meal, the party once again walked towards the Holy Kingdom.

*

As time passed and they arrived in the Holy Kingdom, Kailon sighed and said that he was just as tired.

To be honest, I think the game’s time passed too quickly and the distance increased, resulting in a disaster, but the fact that we somehow made it was important.

After reaching the end, Kailon carefully looked around at the heroines.

“Then, if you have something to do or something to bring, prepare it and let’s meet here after tomorrow morning.”

The first to react to those words was Flora, who had just passed the castle walls and saw that the magic tower was nearby.

“Then, I want to go to the Magic Tower. I also want to get a new robe.”

“Okay, then what about Agnes and Linda?”

Kailon nodded at Flora’s words, let Flora go, and then looked back at Agnes and Linda.

Agnes then groaned and then glanced at the area where her residence was located and purred.

“I don’t really need it. If, while wandering around the village, you reach the mansion where my family is located, all you have to do is bring the rapier that is an heirloom from there.”

“Me too! I like this the best too!”

Here, there was Agnes, who appealed that she didn’t need anything more, and Linda, who exclaimed that the knuckles that Kylon bought her were the best, perhaps because it felt a little uncomfortable to send Kylon away with Agnes, or because she was being sincere.

Could it be that they are trying to win Kylon’s favor with that?

Well, if it was that close, I would welcome it.

So, Flora was the only one left out of this party for a while. However, Flora did not yet have a great liking for the hero, so it was normal for her to react indifferently or coldly.

Still, sometimes he shows a tsunami response, perhaps because he has a basic liking for him.

After checking his colleague’s condition, Kailon nodded once and then opened his mouth.

“Then, let’s find just one inn here… I think I should go to the cathedral there, and since I also have to go to the convent, I think I should go with Veronica.”

“Eck, there was a place called Kailon Business… ?”

As Kailon began to tell her where to go in advance, Linda looked disgusted and looked as if she thought it would be difficult for her to go there.

No matter how holy it is, not everyone is a believer, and as someone who is skilled in martial arts, she seems to have faith in her own efforts rather than faith in God, so she seemed to react that way.

And Agnes left Linda behind and cautiously opened her mouth.

“… If there was someone from the family, they could have helped. What do you think?”

That also meant that if he needed help, he would look for someone from his family in the Holy Kingdom. Kailon, who heard that, groaned and then nodded.

“Then I want to see Agnes, but I don’t want to go alone, so Linda should come with me.”

“Hmm… Well, it’s true that traveling alone is a bit like that… ”

At Kailon’s words, Linda slumped her shoulders as if she had no choice, decided to follow, and muttered.

Then Agnes, who heard those words, smiled lightly and looked at Linda.

“Thank you, I will take care of you for a while.”

“Well, it will be safer with me.”

As I was looking at that, I thought it was camaraderie.

Or maybe it’s because I feel good listening to Kylon.

I’m not sure, but I didn’t want to go too deep and see the reality, so I just followed Kailon in silence.

From what he said, it was clear that he would keep taking me with him.

It was clear that now that I had lost my abilities, I would have become an ordinary person who would bleed profusely if I got a cut without healing it.

What Kylon decided to give me at this convent was to give me a regular black nun’s uniform. So, it seemed like they were stopping by a convent, but seeing that they were also stopping by a cathedral unrelated to it made me think that maybe there was another reason at the convent as well.

After we each decided to do our own thing and split up, I checked the gaze of those around me, made sure no one was there, and then spoke carefully.

“… As I said before, you shouldn’t mess around… ?”

Surely you won’t end up kicking another heroine because of your bullshit here? Because of the mixture of fear and worry, I finally thought it would be better to say it one more time.

So, when I opened my mouth to him, he said this to me in a knowing tone, as if he was having trouble speaking.

“Okay, okay. I’m really just checking.”

Yes, Kailon is crazy about sex, but he is faithful to his role, so there won’t be any problems.

With that in mind, I followed Kylon.
