Episode 63
Honestly, I know it too.
My body? It's not the kind of body that would ever be called fat anywhere.
My chest and hips have grown noticeably, completing a properly feminine figure, so that's even more true.
In fact, I even have pretty 11-line abs carved on my stomach.
But all that confidence disappeared without a trace with just one comment from Aron.
'Am I fat? I have been eating a lot lately. But am I really fat enough for Aron to mention it?'
I even forgot that I had dropped the bread I was eating and checked my stomach.
Then I saw my slightly protruding lower belly.
Come to think of it, ever since I properly grew into a beastkin, my lower belly has become quite noticeable. Before that, I just had normal abs.
Was it because I ate too much using the excuse of growing as a beastkin?
Whatever the reason, the fact that there was fat was the most important thing.
'When did I get this fat?'
I didn't need to go back too far into the past to find the cause.
The tteokbokki I ate right after arriving in Poraka. It's only natural since I couldn't control my appetite and ate 10 plates.
I got too complacent just because I use aura.
"...Am I really fat?"
When I asked Aron with a trembling voice, he shook his head as if flustered.
The hand that had been poking my fat also stopped moving.
"Ah, no! You're not fat at all."
"Then why did you say I got fat? Honestly, it's because I'm fat, right? My lower belly is sticking out like this..."
The hands that had been tightly gripping Aron's arms now fidgeted with my stomach.
Unlike my firm abs, my lower belly was soft.
"Why didn't you stop me! If you knew I was getting fat like this, you should have stopped me. Were you just watching me eat all the time?"
Aron shook his head as if bewildered.
His lips tried to move, but my words weren't finished.
"Do you like me being fat?! You're going to go to another woman saying I got fat again! So annoying!"
Time for Aron to rebut?
I didn't even consider giving him that.
"I'm going to shower! Don't follow me! I won't shower with you! Were you secretly laughing at me for being fat while bathing me every day? Wash yourself, you pervert bastard!"
I immediately jumped off Aron's lap.
Quickly grabbing just my clothes, I moved my steps toward the bathroom.
Bang!
As soon as the door closed, I immediately threw off all my clothes and checked my body.
"Hmm..."
First, my skin passed.
Thanks to the power of being a Transformed Bishoujo, I haven't done any maintenance, but no problems are visible.
Rather, it looks pure white and elastic, so it's above passing grade.
"My arms... are they a bit fat?"
I lifted my right arm and poked my forearm with my left hand.
Then I felt soft flesh.
Clearly, my triceps used to be distinctly visible before.
"The chest needs fat, so I'll let that pass. Next is..."
Since breasts are better with more fat, I naturally moved on.
My gaze then went to my stomach.
"My abs don't seem very visible. More than anything, my lower belly is nothing but fat."
The abs that used to run from below my chest to my pelvis stopped at my lower belly.
On my lower belly, there was a bulging fat that seemed to say 'You got fat. You pig.'
I frowned.
"You. I won't let this slide. Starting tomorrow, it's diet time. Understood?"
After unnecessarily scolding my lower belly, Mia's gaze went a bit lower.
This time it was my thighs.
"A little fat looks good, but is it too much now?"
They look better now than in the old days when they were just muscle.
Should I say they're like plump fruit? In many ways, they're soft and my figure looks much prettier.
I just need to lose a little bit, right?
I lightly grabbed my thigh and glared at it.
"You too. I won't let you slide starting tomorrow either."
Only after declaring a diet to my own fat could Mia finally go to shower.
She had no idea that Aron outside had heard everything.
Right now, she was just angry at her fat.
*
Aron, who was listening to Mia's muttering outside, intuitively realized he had made a mistake.
While it was true that he said she gained weight, that wasn't his intention.
'I didn't mean it looked bad.'
The fat had just gone to where it should go.
A little fat on her waist connecting to her hips created a beautiful line, and her slightly protruding lower belly seemed to tempt him, saying 'I'm ready to get pregnant.'
When they first met, with a slight exaggeration, she could have passed as a boy.
Compared to that, she was much prettier and better looking now.
"But is she muttering to herself in there?"
First she was evaluating herself, and now she's scolding someone or something.
Just you wait, I won't let this slide.
She was saying things like that alone, and when I listened carefully, she was talking to her fat.
"Kheum! Pfft!"
Worried that Mia might hear, Aron laughed while holding his breath as much as possible.
To think that after getting angry and going inside, all she does is grab her own fat and scold it.
Could this too be to seduce me?
That's how much it seemed that way.
'If I go in now, she'll really hate it, right? I should hug her when she comes out after showering.'
Judging by Mia's sulkiness index, this isn't a major sulk.
Just a momentary outburst.
If she spends some time alone and I feed her something delicious, it'll resolve quickly.
"Then I should prepare things Mia likes."
This wasn't Mia's first diet declaration, and honestly, Aron thought it would be better if she gained a bit more weight.
Whether innate or not, whenever Mia gained weight, it always went to her butt or chest.
If she gained just a little more, it would be the perfect size.
"I should go out and get some food."
Leaving Mia who was showering, Aron went out of the room.
His footsteps headed straight to the kitchen.
*
After washing up with warm water, my mood improved.
My mind, which had been depressed, sensitive, and full of irritation, became clearer and I felt languid.
"Aron, I'm out. Go shower quickly."
I called out while drying my hair with a towel, but no answer came back.
"Aron?"
I casually hung the towel aside and looked around the room.
Though it was called a large room, since it was lodging, the interior was visible at a glance.
"What, he's not here. Where did he go?"
I almost grew suspicious at Aron's absence, but quickly dismissed it.
Getting suspicious just because he's gone for a moment is a sickness.
Aron needs his own time too.
"Then I should rest first. Hmm hmm."
Humming, I walked toward the bed when I saw the bread.
The breads I had started eating and then thrown on the floor.
My sensitive sense of smell immediately caught their scents.
"...Should I eat just one?"
Honestly, I'm still very hungry.
Growing as a beastkin? That excuse is embarrassing to use now, but it's true that my body is growing.
Lately, I've been growing taller so fast that I can feel it.
"Should I eat just one before Aron comes?"
Judging by my stomach hurting a bit lately, it seemed like my estrus would come soon.
Estrus comes, and right after that comes my period, so it's a time when I'm both hungry and sensitive in many ways.
And during this time, I need to eat.
'Is it because I'm preparing to make a baby? So I'm hungrier and more tired than usual?'
Naturally tearing off a piece of bread, I even rationalized it in my head.
This is all for my body.
It's unavoidable.
If I really end up having a baby, shouldn't I have enough nutrients?
Making up such reasons, I took a bite of the bread.
"Mmm...! Delicious! Should I tell him to buy more of this next time?"
A baguette filled with chocolate.
The outside is crispy and savory, while the center is filled with sweet chocolate.
"What, were you already eating? I brought milk and fruit too."
While I was eating absentmindedly, Aron had come in.
I hadn't even noticed that fact and was just eating bread.
"Guh, gulp! Kehk! Hueup...!"
Because of that, I got caught.
Too surprised, the bread I was swallowing blocked my esophagus.
"Mia! Drink this quickly."
Aron quickly came over and fed me milk, and only after drinking it did the bread go down.
"I, it's absolutely not that I wanted to eat bread! My estrus is coming soon, and if I get hungry I'll just get annoyed at you, so I had no choice but to eat..."
When I glanced at him to check his reaction, Aron smiled and stroked my head.
My body automatically reacted to his touch.
I pressed closer and the corners of my mouth rose.
"It's okay. You can eat whatever you want. Originally, when Mia gains weight, it all goes to your chest and butt anyway. So it doesn't even show."
"But you said that while touching my side. What was that about?"
Aron's hand gently poked my side again.
The feeling of his large, rough hand softly holding my waist.
"When I hold you like this, it feels good. It's smooth and soft, so it feels somehow calming."
"Really? Then you don't mind me?"
Only then did my gaze slowly turn toward the food Aron had brought.
Cheese, ham, fruit, milk.
Things that go well with bread or are good for light eating.
"Of course. Originally, as a beastkin who also uses aura, there's no way you could easily gain weight. Even if you ate like this every day, you wouldn't get fat."
"Then... should I try eating just a little?"
While nestled in Aron's embrace, I picked up a fruit and brought it to my mouth.
When I took a bite of the bright red strawberry, sweet and fresh flesh spread through my mouth.
"Delicious. Is this a really expensive fruit?"
"I just asked the innkeeper for some appropriate snacks and he gave them to me? Should I try one too?"
Before Aron could move first, I picked up a fruit and put it in his mouth.
"How is it?"
"It must be a really expensive fruit. It's much more delicious than I thought."
"Right?"
Saying that, I finished all the snacks while in Aron's embrace.
After eating, we lay together on the bed, played around, talked until late at night, and then fell asleep.
For now, I decided to temporarily ignore the misfortune and pain that would come in the future.
Even if I have to leave when the time comes, I should be happy now.
