Mr. Pantalone has no crazy plans today.

Therefore, although Amber was one of the people in charge of taking care of Cole, she was not actually aware of what Cole had really gone through, something that was tacitly concealed by both the Knights and the Fools.

Therefore, she knew very well that no matter what she said, Cole would still be wary of her.

This left her feeling a little flustered and unsure how to respond, so she awkwardly scratched her cheek.

Amber, who had originally intended to use this topic to smooth things over, found herself at a loss for words after Yura's remarks, even in the current atmosphere.

Seeing Amber looking somewhat bewildered, Yura took the opportunity to change the subject.

"Instead of doing things that would make her feel resistant, it would be better to prepare food for the weak and injured person. Judging from her thin appearance, it is clear that she has not eaten for a long time. Isn't that the most important thing right now?"

"For patients with weak constitutions, the most suitable food is liquid food. Such food will not harm the stomach of patients who have been fasting for a long time, and it can also give them some time to adapt. You should be prepared for this."

These words made Amber, who was initially flustered, suddenly remember something she had forgotten.

"Ah! I had forgotten about it if you hadn't mentioned it. Come to think of it, I was just making a pot of thick soup. I was talking about other things and completely forgot about this important thing."

Reminded by Yura, Amber remembered the important thing she had forgotten. With a silly smile, she put her hands together and apologized to Cole and Yura, who were sitting on the bed.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll be right back."

After saying that, Amber went out for a while.

He returned quickly, carrying a bowl of thick soup that had been prepared.

He then chuckled and scooped up a spoonful of soup for Cole, who was sitting on the bed. After blowing on the still-steaming soup to cool it down, he brought it to her lips.

"Come on, try this rich soup that I made with lots and lots of nutritious ingredients, specially prepared for you."

"Ah...I don't need it..."

Cole, who was initially wary and resistant, still wanted to resist something.

Weakened and powerless, she had no strength to resist Amber's forced feeding. Before she could finish speaking, Amber forcibly put a spoonful of soup into her mouth.

The moment the rich soup entered her mouth, the warm, fragrant, and delicious sensation instantly filled her entire body.

When Cole, who had been trying to resist, realized that her consciousness had returned to reality, she had already subconsciously swallowed the thick soup in her mouth.

This made her unable to utter the words she had been trying to say.

Amber looked excited after seeing her swallow the soup.

"How is it? How is it? Isn't it delicious? You know, I'm very confident in my cooking skills!"

Cole was overwhelmed by Amber's enthusiasm and could only passively accept the kindness that Amber was forcibly offering, which made her feel extremely passive.

I also personally felt that the passionate girl in front of me had no intention of harming me, just as she showed.

This fiery emotion overwhelmed her completely, yet she had to admit it.

To be honest, she didn't dislike the feeling of being cared for and looked after, but on the other hand, her inner unease and resistance made her afraid to accept such kindness.

This conflicting feeling left her at a loss, until she saw Amber's expectant eyes, at which point she answered timidly in a low voice.

"...It's...delicious."

"Great! If you like it, eat more. I have plenty here, so don't be shy."

Upon hearing Cole's reply, Amber couldn't help but show an expression of immense joy.

After scooping out another spoonful and blowing on it to cool it down, he held it to her lips. After swallowing the thick soup, the warm and comfortable feeling made her feel completely immersed in it.

She secretly glanced at the girl feeding her out of the corner of her eye, which warmed her heart.

Is this what it feels like to be cared for?

The warmth from Amber lessened the unease and fear she felt in this unfamiliar environment.

Meanwhile, Yura watched as Cole, fed by Amber, gradually finished the entire bowl of soup. Just as Amber was about to get another bowl after seeing that the soup was gone, she realized that Cole was still in the middle of a mess.

"Oh, it's all gone. I'll go get another bowl."

Just as she took a step, Cole grabbed the hem of her dress.

This made Amber look at Cora, who was pursing her lips, seemingly unwilling to let her leave, with a puzzled expression.

"What's wrong?"

"I……"

Cole did what Amber asked instinctively, leaving her unsure how to respond.

She was simply used to Amber's presence and didn't want Amber to leave.

However, she couldn't bring herself to say those words. Seeing Cole's somewhat embarrassed behavior, Yura, who had witnessed everything, naturally saw through Cole's thoughts and smoothed things over.

"Alright, Amber, it's not advisable for a weak patient to eat too much after waking up. Rest is more important for the injured, and care is the most important thing for a weak patient."

"You're right, then I'll take care of things here from now on."

After hearing Yura's explanation, Amber agreed.

Then she stopped thinking about other things, gave up the idea of ​​making another bowl of soup, and prepared to take good care of Cole.

After seeing Yura's reaction, Cole's initial unease and fear towards Yura became even more complicated.

Based on her impression of Yura, she was clearly in cahoots with those who had done those terrible things to her.
