Chapter 336 – Extraversion 4. Eat
“Hmm.”
After a walk in the garden with Claudia.
Standing in front of the mirror, Klaus tilted his head.
– Dad! –
– Yes. Claudia. Why? –
– Dad, I think he’s gained weight! –
– Uh? –
– Your forearms are a little thicker than last time! –
– … Really? –
– Really! –
Those words that make men and women, regardless of gender, speechless.
I gained weight. Even a child can see the change at once!
Klaus sighed and looked in the mirror again.
As far as I could with my keen eye, I could see that he had gained flesh, albeit very slightly.
In fact, I was aware that I had gained a little weight compared to before.
I rarely run with my body like I used to, and most of it was desk work.
He was doing outside activities for no reason, but he stayed only in the Demon King’s family, afraid that Yulia would keep paying attention to him.
So, the only way was to reduce the amount of food I ate a while ago.
However, after hearing Claudia’s words today, I thought it would be better to move.
‘The war hero has now stepped back and does nothing, just eats and rolls around… Well, it wouldn’t be strange if the body gained weight.’
It’s not that it’s round enough to roll around.
If you think that you were a bit skinny before, you might say that you like it better now.
However, it’s a bit strange to hear that you’ve gained weight while lounging around in your room when you’re a war hero.
‘The best way is to break a sweat by sparring…’
Previously, he used to sparring with Yuliana and Kayla.
At that time, he continued to stay at the front line and was in charge of many tasks, which was possible.
However, after he stepped down, Yulia and Kaela took over their duties in earnest.
Naturally, I lost a lot of time to compete with the two.
Excluding those two, the only people he could compete with were Natasha and Cecily.
Natasha, of course, is in the elves’ territory far away from here.
Cecily is in the process of returning to her own family and taking on the role of her head of the family.
‘It seems that sparring is impossible.’
Then, all that was left was to move the body without using any skills.
However, this was a concern because the body had already been trained to the limit, so there was a part that could not be reached with normal momentum.
I’ve never once worried about gaining weight during the episode.
It was Klaus who realized that this kind of problem could arise as he passed the time.
“Klaus. This is Planche.”
“Come in.”
When permission is given, the door opens and Planche enters.
Stepping inside her, she had brought a simple snack.
“I heard from her ladies-in-waiting that you skipped lunch.”
“I have no desire to eat.”
“Nothing good comes from skipping meals. Let’s make it simple with Yogi.”
“No. Are you okay. I think I’ve gained a bit of weight lately, so I’m thinking of cutting down on the amount of food I eat.”
At Klaus’s words, Planche nodded her head alas.
Maybe that’s why I haven’t been eating well lately.
After looking at Klaus for a while, Planche put the things he had brought on the table.
And I went behind the man who was examining my body in front of the stretching mirror.
“… It doesn’t seem like much of a problem to me.”
“I think so too, but Claudia said so.”
“Are you talking about the princess?”
A little girl who has inherited all of her parents’ strengths and already exudes the energy of a strong person.
Her eyes on her opponent were also very sharp, if she said she had gained weight.
It was right to see that it was not a joke, but that he noticed a subtle change.
If it was someone else, I would have laughed and moved on.
However, since that opponent is Klaus’s daughter, the princess of the demonic family, she is a little too lazy to pass it on.
So Planche looked around at the man standing in front of the mirror once more.
“Looking at this, you seem a little stronger than before.”
“Isn’t that the same as saying you’ve gained some weight?”
“My personal opinion is that there is nothing wrong with it, but… It seems Klaus-sama has already made up his mind to go back to the old days.”
Regardless of gender, regardless of age, it is never a pleasant thing to be evaluated for gaining weight.
So Klaus nodded his head, and Planche sneaked back.
“If you don’t, Klaus-sama. Can I be your opponent?”
“… Do you have an opponent? You?”
At Planche’s words, Klaus narrowed his eyes for a moment and looked at Planche.
In terms of overall combat ability, Planche is clearly a strong man who cannot be compared to others.
She’s now the chamberlain, and before that, she worked as a maid, so she just didn’t know that.
It wasn’t for nothing that Klaus called her the strongest maid ever.
But Yuliana, whom Klaus evaluates as stronger than himself.
Compared to Natasha, Cecily, and Kayla, who were just below that level, she was a bit lacking.
Unlike each one who has a powerful one-shot, Planche specializes in quick yet restrained movements.
Wasn’t she the one who assassinated her enemies for the purpose of cleaning her up right away?
‘I don’t know if this is an assassination. It’s probably lacking in sparring.’
A surprise attack is only effective when the enemy does not discover that it is a surprise attack.
Although she didn’t know anything about it if she fought Planche in a situation where she didn’t know anything.
Now, these two are fighting and letting each other know that they will fight each other openly.
He must have known for sure that Planche would launch an ambush right away.
That’s why she would read Planche’s movements by expanding her senses after preparing herself.
It can be seen that it is very unlikely that her strengths will be fully expressed.
“Can you really do it?”
“Yeah. You can.”
Klaus had to tilt his head at Planche’s confident answer.
Her specialty is the sharpness that comes from her stealthiness and sophistication.
It’s supremely useful for ambush or assassination, but it has no strengths in a frontal power fight like this.
Nevertheless, since he came out so confidently, it became very ambiguous to reject this.
“… Great.”
“Do you allow it?”
“If you asked me to do it, why would you refuse? I also have to play with my body properly, so if it’s at your level, I’d rather say it’s good. Then let’s go right away.”
“All right. If so, I will go right away.”
Anyway, Yulia was still busy with work.
And Kaela has returned from her leave, and she has now gone on her off-campus training with her convict side’s bodyguard.
Naturally, the Demon King’s gymnasium would have been empty, so he would be able to rampage properly.
“… Hey, Planche?”
But the next scene was enough to embarrass Klaus.
Didn’t you say you were going to go to the gymnasium and jump right in?
Why did that woman suddenly take off her clothes and suddenly she was shocked?
Flutter!-
“Hey, what are you doing…”
“Didn’t I tell you? I will deal with you.”
“I said so. But wasn’t that what you meant by sparring?”
“Dalian?”
“Yes. Because there’s nothing better than sparring to move wildly!”
“To move violently… Sparring in the gymnasium is good, but sparring on the bed is also judged to be intense enough. And the consumption of stamina is higher than expected.”
“Flanche, you…”
“His Majesty the Demon King asked us to find out why Klaus-nim’s food intake decreased. And now that we know the reason, wouldn’t it be right to seek a solution together?”
Klaus’ expression strangely changes at Planche’s answer.
Are you saying that Yulia gave her permission to do this now, and not anyone else?
It’s not another place, it’s the demon king’s house, but it’s no different from Yulia’s bedroom, isn’t it?
“Haven’t you already done everything for the other women?”
“Flanche, that…”
“Don’t worry. This is nothing but to increase Klaus-nim’s activity. So there is nothing to worry about. You just have to be with me.”
The reason for pushing it is very strange, but also strangely logical.
While thinking so, Planche showed her pure white and smooth skin without regret.
He even pushed Klaus to the side of the bed, which he would never have done normally.
“Tell me honestly. Is this really for me?”
“Of course. All of this is for Klaus.”
“Very frankly, say it again. Isn’t your greed or something else here?”
Then Planche’s hand, which was untying Klaus’ coat, trembled for a moment.
However, it was only for a very short time, an extremely fleeting moment.
Planche, who perfectly captured Klaus, skillfully took off Klaus’ top and opened his mouth.
“I’m just doing this for Klaus-sama.”
Planche said that without changing a single expression.
Thanks to that, Klaus couldn’t help but let out an absurd laugh.
The touch of the woman who answered like that was very urgent, and she looked anxious again.
