Summary 

She died once in her original life, and then died two more times after being reborn as the princess of a fallen kingdom.In her fourth life, she just wanted to live quietly and for a long time— cooking the food she loved, staying low-key, and avoiding wanted posters.But whenever she cooks, people react strangely:

• “It’s delicious…”
• “I’ve never eaten anything like this anywhere in the Empire!”
• “If you ever want to open a restaurant, tell me. I will invest. No—please let me invest.”
• “If she opens a restaurant, I’m investing.”

…What kind of food have these people been eating all this time?On top of that, a hungry little “puppy” she picked up in her garden keeps following her. Except he’s not a real dog— he’s a small, abandoned boy who clings to her like a lost pet.“Alina is my lifesaver.”Things started getting too big and complicated, so she ran away.But then—“I found you, my Alina.”The boy who used to be a small puppy-like kid came back as a large dog-sized young man—fully grown, strong, and devoted to her.***“Hold me. Like before.”Now taller than Alina by a whole head, the man looks at her with big, puppy-like eyes.The moment her hand brushes his broad back, Rihardt pulls her tightly into his arms—almost crushing her— and whispers sweetly:“I’m never letting you go.”The words are sweet, yet Alina feels a cold chill run down her spine.
