He made up for Barbara's shortcomings when she was lacking, and used his soft voice to set off her when she was gradually able to sing the lyrics completely.

Even though they had never sung a duet together before, these two clumsy people managed to gradually piece together a powerful song through their efforts.

The singing moved the water droplets, forming leaping notes and water rings, which swirled around the two people.

Youya could also feel that her body seemed to have gained some kind of cleansing. The small wounds continued to heal, and the lavender bruises gradually disappeared, returning to its former fair and tender appearance.

More importantly, she could feel her legs, and...

At that moment, it seemed as if some force supported her, allowing Youya to stand up with the help of Barbara.

This experience so astonished her that if it had not been inappropriate, she would have shouted "medical miracle".

But in the next moment, her legs, which had regained some strength, lost consciousness again and she fell forward.

Barbara was startled by this sudden situation, but she still hugged Youya tightly to prevent her from falling to the ground with her knees, and she also saw Youya's smile at this time.

Before this, she had seen the other person's smile that shone like a sunflower, her sly smile like a cat when she teased her, and her somewhat sad smile when she realized that growing up was not always a good thing.

But no matter which one, it can't compare to this smile.

It was a heart-warming smile, like petals blown by the breeze, floating before your eyes.

"...I, stood up...even if it was only briefly, but...Barbara saw it, right?"

Her voice seemed to have some kind of magic, making Barbara experience an extremely simple happiness.

Although it was just a normal, nothing special standing up.

But, for the girl in front of him.

What kind of miracle does it mean?

Barbara couldn't say that she could understand how she felt, but there was one thing... one thing she could confirm in particular.

If you continue hugging, you will definitely be heard.

...the noisy sound of my own heartbeat.

Chapter 26 About Fish...

lunch time.

It had been a while since Barbara got the Eye of God. During this time, she went to see Lady Maria and told her what had happened. This made her sigh that God was indeed always watching over the devout people.

However, she did not say anything, but gently asked Barbara to go back first and tell her father about it in the evening.

Barbara was in a very good mood and carefully put the Eye of God in her pocket. Then she got her meal in the cafeteria and went to the second floor.

She was not so overwhelmed by the surprise that she forgot her appointment with Youya to have lunch together at noon.

Just as she walked to Youya's room, the door was opened. Youya, who was driving a wheelchair, opened the door for her and invited her in.

After all, this time the group wasn't just bringing one person, and Barbara's two hands were both occupied, so she obviously couldn't free a hand to open the door.

Barbara, who entered the room, didn't know that not long after she entered, Kaia in the next room pushed open the door, thinking about something thoughtfully.

Now her attention was completely attracted by the dishes neatly arranged on the table.

For some reason, after obtaining the Eye of God, she felt that her appetite seemed to be stronger.

The portion was so big that it barely looked like something the two girls could finish.

Although I had a lot to say to Youya, my stomach started to protest when I smelled the aroma of the food.

Especially the spicy dried fish that garnished the food, which always seemed to attract her more than before.

Youya was also surprised by the sumptuousness of today's lunch, and then she joked: "Is this a small celebration banquet? I haven't had such a big meal before."

She wheeled her wheelchair to her usual spot and picked up her knife and fork.

The fried veal steak is fragrant and makes your mouth water.

"Wait a minute, don't forget this!"

Fortunately, after being teased, Barbara reacted in time and took out the pills that Mrs. Maria asked her to bring to Youya.

Because the water element has a very good healing effect, most of Youya's external injuries, including the swelling that prevented her from lying on her back, disappeared, and she no longer needed to take the painkillers she had taken before.

These are the medicines that Mrs. Maria said can supplement the body with specific nutrients. After all, although the healing of wounds cannot be separated from the help of water elements, it is also inseparable from the hard work of cells in the body.

Without hesitation, Youya swallowed the pills handed to her by Barbara with water, picked up the knife and fork again and looked at the table.

To make it easier to eat, Barbara had already divided the fried steak, which had been fried until crispy, into two equal pieces.

Leave one piece as is and squeeze lemon juice on the other.

Although Youya considers herself not a fanatic of Western food, after all, her previous physical condition did not allow her to do so. But now that her body has recovered, this kind of food can finally be added to her diet.

Without further ado, let’s try the original steak.

The beef fried in olive oil is very tender, the butter on the outside, and the generous sprinkling of salt and pepper fill every piece of meat with the smoky aroma of the seasonings. Just chew it gently, and you can feel the gravy dancing on the tip of your tongue.

Gradually, the girl's expression softened without any need for control.

Savoring delicious food is the greatest happiness in life.

“Hmm… Um, gu…”

After enjoying it quietly for a while, she also looked at the bread that came with the meal. The freshly baked bread was fluffy and soft. It only needed to be gently pressed with a dinner knife to break it into two. After dividing it into three equal parts, Youya also spread the sour cream on the side.

When you take a bite, the refreshing sour taste and rich milky flavor spread in the air.

This is also delicious——

Steak, bread, steak again, and broccoli and cherry tomatoes. After a hearty meal like this, Yuya finally had time to talk to Barbara.

"…Barbara can eat spicy food."

"Yeah. I really like spicy food, especially this. I order it almost every time."

She even had a piece of spicy dried fish in her mouth. It seemed to be a snack after dinner?

And Youya was staring at the only fish left on her plate, like a mathematician thinking about a difficult math problem.

Noticing her gaze, Barbara did not guard her food. She swallowed the dried fish generously and then handed the spicy dried fish to her.

"Youya, do you want to try it?"

"Yeah... I have a little problem with fish food..."

Youya leaned back a little, with an expression of being overwhelmed on her little face.

"Hey! Yuya hates eating fish?"

"Well... I don't mean I hate it, it's just a little hard to swallow..."

This surprised Barbara. Mondstadt is backed by the Wine Lake, with a comfortable climate and abundant freshwater fish resources. Therefore, there are many fish dishes on the table. As a native of Mondstadt, Barbara has naturally eaten these dishes, but they are not staple foods.

But Youya is different. The Lawrence family lives outside Mond City, in a settlement developed by an earlier group of people.

Normally, they live off the land and the water, and occasionally exchange food with traveling merchants.

After all, even if they went to Mondstadt, no one would want to sell them anything. As the farmer who sold apples said, he would rather feed all his apples to pigeons than leave Lawrence a core.

This means that in the absence of a normal transaction system, important resources such as food must be distributed. As the eldest daughter, Eula at least has no worries about food and clothing, but "Yuya", a poor little girl living under someone else's roof, does not have this condition.

Although she wouldn't starve to death, it was normal to miss something in her three meals a day. There were several side branches like her, and the adults in the clan had to make sure they were well fed.

In order to avoid starvation, those people with more "enlightened" ideas will definitely find something to eat.

Hunting wild boars in the mountains without real skills is just a waste of time - looking for trouble.

Then we can only pursue the less risky option, picking wild fruits. But eating fruits alone is not enough, the human body must have sufficient protein to avoid collapse.

The chicken and duck farmers think that raising chickens and ducks is a job for peasants. How can these "nobles" bend down to pick up eggs while stepping on a mixture of feces and materials? (In fact, they raise them secretly, but they don't have the skills and they are in the wild. They are either taken away by wolves or secretly fed by someone who doesn't control his mouth. In the end, they are all gone.)

Then we can only harm the river fish that no one cares about. Thanks to this——

In the past, the staple food that Yuya ate the most was fish, besides potatoes. During special periods, she could only eat fish, and the taste was only better than grilled fish with a little salt.

Therefore, in this case, although Youya is not so delicate that she cannot eat fish, at least under the conditions allowed, she really doesn't want to touch fish...

In order to change the subject, Youya picked up the half piece of steak that she had specially reserved and handed it to her.

"Well, anyway - although eating fish is good for the body, Barbara, at our age, we still need to eat some of this."

Faced with her teasing, Barbara's cute and lively eyes...seemed to dodge a little.

Then--

Chapter 27 Feeding Play~

"Then, I'm not welcome."

"Eh……"

The girl's light pink lips were shiny even without lipstick, and she snatched her favorite steak like a cat.

When Youya realized that she had actually fed Barbara directly, her cheeks became flushed and she didn't know where to look.

...Don't, don't be nervous.

It’s just ordinary feeding. Girls do this kind of thing between best friends, right?

Not to mention that she and Barbara are just children. Only people with wrong thoughts would have to face the wall.

"Uh-huh——"

Barbara chewed the steak with her small mouth, as if she was savoring the flavor.

For some reason, Youya became even more nervous and... expectant?

"How, how is it?"

Barbara said approvingly after chewing and swallowing seriously.

“It’s delicious.”

"That's great."

Although she didn't make the lunch, Youya was still excited. She just held up her little face and looked at her with a smile on her face.

"I'm so happy that you like what I like."

"...!"

Perhaps because the meaning of the words was too straightforward, Barbara's face suddenly turned red and she stammered and was unable to speak.

Seeing her embarrassment, Youya looked at the fruits and vegetables on her plate that she had not finished eating, and naturally changed the subject: "Come to think of it, I actually always thought that Barbara would prefer salad."

Upon hearing this, Barbara immediately shook her head, and her half-spiral ponytails swayed, exuding the scent that Youya liked.

"I don't have this hobby. But if Youya likes it, I can ask my mother for the recipe and try to make it for you..."

"Ah, there's no need to do that..."

"Hmm? Is Youya worried that my mother and I can't get along?" Barbara smiled shyly, "It seems that everyone has this idea, but actually my mother and I have a very good relationship."

She pointed out that

Youya was silent for a while.

Barbara's parents divorced, and she followed her father away from her mother and sister, and her last name was also changed.

At her age, it wouldn't be surprising for her to think that "her father and I were abandoned by our mother", but right now, it's the exact opposite...

"Although I left my mother, I know she actually loved me very much. Sometimes I could see her praying under the statue of the wind god outside the church."

Barbara recounted this incident that she had never mentioned to her father, and at the same time she looked down at the cherry tomatoes on the plate, as if recalling something.

"Last year on my birthday, my mother gave me a sunflower-style dress. I've been thinking about when I can wear it, but I feel that I don't deserve such a dazzling dress. After all... I can't compare to my sister."

Before she finished her words, she felt her cheek being gently poked by the slender, white fingers coming from Youya in front of her.

"——Although I know that I am just an insignificant idler and cannot presume to comment on Barbara's family affairs. However, there is only one thing I want to refute!"

Barbara's figure was reflected in her eyes.

"For me, who was saved by Barbara, there is no one more dazzling than you. Please be more confident."

"...Yuya."

"Besides, Barbara also has the Eye of God, doesn't she?"
