Chapter: 136

Instead, she learned to grow and planted medicinal herbs in the garden.

“I used to make a living by selling herbs every year.”

Astelle replied without much meaning, but Kaizen became confused again when he heard her words.

‘Was it so hard to make a living?’

Kaizen walked on the grasses.

Even though he had been to the forest, this was the first time he had passed through the bushes like this.

Everywhere he went, there was a smell of moist dirt and grass.

He now looked up at the sky.

Reddish sun setting in a light purple sky.

There was Astelle three or four steps ahead.

Dressed in a plain dress, Astelle was holding a basket and picking up an unknown herb.

Suddenly Kaizen thought of the old days.

‘It turns out that I was in the forest with Astelle like this before.’

Astelle in her memory was always a beautifully decorated doll figure.

The background was always a place like an imperial palace or a banquet hall of a gorgeous mansion.

However, he had only entered the forest with Astelle once.

It was an old memory, like a page in a dusty book.

Kaizen shook off the dust that had accumulated in his memory that he had forgotten.

“I remember the old days,” Kaizen said in a calm tone.

Astelle turned her gaze to him.

Kaizen looked at her and continued, “We went hunting together on my birthday in the forest. Do you remember?”

Astelle clearly remembered it.

“Are you referring to the time when I went into the lake trying to save Your Majesty?”

It was a cold voice, but it was right.

“……yes, that day.”
