Track 2

Sorry to keep you waiting, Chief. I’ve finished making it.

Thank you so much…! You can even cook… Nayuki-kun, you really—

Th-This is…?!

“Fatigue Recovery Dish – Honey Lemon Natto over Rice”. This is a wonderful dish that uses ingredients that help with restoring energy. It has a refreshing taste and is quite easy to eat as well.

I also eat this meal before deadlines or when there’s a lot of work to do. I can confirm that it’s very effective.

(...I know it’s wrong of me to think this when Nayuki-kun went out of his way to make it for me, but…)

(Isn’t it kind of… glowing?! It’s supposed to be made from simple ingredients, but somehow…just looking at it sends shivers down my spine!)

Please enjoy it while it’s still warm.

(But… I can’t just let the ingredients and Nayuki-kun’s kindness go to waste like this…!)

Chief? If you’re unsure on how you’re supposed to eat it, then shall I feed you?

If you gather up the ingredients on the spoon like this for a perfect bite…

I-I’m good, don’t worry…! Um, thank you for the food…!

?!

(I couldn’t tell from the way it looked but the texture is surprisingly soft?! It tastes… Sour? Sweet?! The more I eat, the more my tongue loses touch with reality… Like my tastebuds are being whisked away…)

How does it taste?

(munch, munch…) Um, yeah. It’s been a while since I’ve had such warm food.

I feel a sense of relief… I think. Maybe I’ll be able to sleep pretty well tonight!

I’m glad to hear that. I can guarantee that you won’t be tired at all once tomorrow comes.

(Is that so…?)

Ah, I’ll go get you a drink. Please enjoy your meal, Chief.

Thank you…

(...The spoon feels so heavy. Anyway, I’ll try my best to finish all of this…!)

Wha.. What’s this……

My body is so…light?!

(Up until yesterday, both my body and mind felt so heavy! But now, I feel great, like I’ve had a long, good night’s sleep! It’s as if I can handle any work thrown my way—)

…Is this the power of that fatigue recovery dish? Nayuki-kun’s recipe is so…incredible!!
