Kalia paused for a moment at Simons words, then turned her head to look at Simon, then asked again in a serious tone.
Just you and me?
Yeah. The others will be here.
Kalias ears turned red as she stared intently at his face, which showed a hint of understanding.
So thats why earlier tonight
Kalia mumbled words that Simon couldnt understand, and then blew air out of her mouth as if she had a fever, lifting her loose bangs.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Simon smirked and asked, as if wondering why she was making that face, but Kalia shook her head and muttered, Ah, never mind.
Kalia had been side-eyeing Simon, but suddenly she poked his well-toned abs with her elbow and said.
Oof.
He wanted to ask what that meant, but her attack left him speechless. Kalias elbow poke wasnt exactly gentle, but was more like a regular elbow.
Heeh!
Simon walked quickly, trying not to show any signs of pain as he forced a pale smile.
He didnt know why, but Kalia seemed slightly excited.
So much so that she might not even know what kind of punch she had just thrown.
Okay, I got it. I understand.
Hmm?
You said not to overdo it geez, youre really something.
But what are you talking about, Kalia?
I just cant help myself.
Kalia, who had been laughing a lot, lifted Sasha up and down high in the sky as if she suddenly felt better.
The sound of a laughing babys pierced the sky, and at the same time, Simons dulled brain belatedly caught the intent of the words.
Wait, no. Kalia might be misunderstanding something right now
But it seemed like Kalia had completely misconstrued things and was happily playing with the baby, her laughter saying it all.
Which food is good for stamina?
For some reason, a sense of pressure washed over him that they couldnt let the night end without doing anything.
Simon unconsciously clenched his fists and made up his mind.

After roughly entrusting their luggage and Sasha, Kalia and Simon headed straight to the annex.
If you know how to ride a horse, youd better go on a horse. The path where the forest and the river harmonize is very good for horseback riding.
At the managers words, Kalia widened her eyes.
When was the last time she rode a horse?
During her pregnancy, she couldnt ride, and after giving birth, she was confined to the castle for almost 100 days without moving. Despite all kinds of effective medicine, her own recovery power like a monster, and Simons dedicated healing magic, her body fully recovered, but people around her were still worried about her.
Kalia was even barely allowed to exercise Hemmie as an excuse, let alone riding a horse.
Lets ride. I want to run again after a long time.
Are you sure its okay?
To be honest I feel healthier now than before giving birth to Sasha. Im not as unhealthy as I used to be.
Kalia glanced at Simon as she spoke, hoping to give herself more confidence in her own words.
Well, Im glad youre healthier now.
But why did Simon suddenly feel uneasy about Kalias words?
Research. I have to do research. Research
Simon shuddered and made a strong determination to study the state magic that enhances physical strength and stamina once more.
