My Lady Chef novel Chapter 88

Ezran's POV:

Back in the Kingdom of Guthrie...

2 months later...

My wife.....

has become popular as Elena, her "supposed" protege but now...

She is gaining more admirers and popularity as she took over the duties of the head cook and taught soldiers in charge of cooking on how to properly prepare food and even improved and taught more of the city people how to prepare meals that they can forage around the area in times of emergency or crisis

While working, she wore her old dresses and covered up her milky skin but there is no denying how beautiful she is despite her plain attire.

As a result, the quality of the food was consistent, morale is at an all-time high and soon the soldiers in charge of the food improved in a span of a few weeks as my senior knight led teams to put down any remnants of the Guthrian forces.

I have also noticed something.

Our forces' overall stamina and health have been oddly good lately. I even checked the mana of some of my knights and they are steadily getting stronger.

This may be due to my wife's practice of infusing a bit of her mana sprite's element into her food.

In theory, eating a large amount of infused mana cuisine can amplify a person's magic for a short time but a steady diet of consuming food infused with a small amount of mana was said to permanently improve a person's physical state and health.

More so if the mana dish correlates with the primary element your body possesses.

But this theory has never been proven yet but now that I am looking around using my draconic eyes. It seems like soldiers who have strong ties to fire and water manas are improving faster than those with air and earth mana.

As I stop over every day to see my wife supervising the soldier cooks alongside Kain, who effectively keeps away a few admirers from being too forward with her.

My heart continues to grow warm every time I see my beloved enjoying herself. Her contributions to maintaining the morale of my camp are sure to get noticed by the king.

Because in just 2 months, Guthrie has been cleared of any hostile opposition and is ready to be annexed into the Holy Kingdom.

The common folk who were now looking at us favorably have promised to obediently follow as long as the rules of the new ruler of the land are fair and just.

Well, that is for his Highness to decide. Perhaps he will be giving it to one of the younger princes to manage.

I have been asked by the other commanders who were currently still engaged in their own war campaign about the secret to completing my mission to the crown so fast.

They would never believe that the reason for my men's efficiency and improving performance is due to their anticipation to get back to camp and enjoy food cooked by their commander's wife.

I was smiling all day as I paid a secret visit to the Castle's kitchen where my wife is at her element.

"Your Grace! Is this looking okay?" One of the male cooks was having her check his bowl
