I Became The Clack curtain’s Dedicated Chef.

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.
