Synopsis
“Stella, please find the cursed jar and break it!”
In the Credion Empire, where she had been taken hostage, Stella encountered a group of small beings. Their earnest pleas were so endearing that she decided to grant their request.
But what emerged from the jar was none other than a pickaxe.
“This is a noble pickaxe blessed by the Goddess Terra! Now Stella can become a noble farmer too!”
Farming?
Though she was an illegitimate child, farming had always been far removed from Stella’s life. She simply shook her head, certain that such a thing could never suit her.
And yet, as time passed,
she found herself reaching for the pickaxe again and again,
as if the garden beyond was calling out to her.
Strange… why do I suddenly want to farm so badly?
Kai had always been solely focused on expanding the territory under his rule.
He had no interest in anything else—
until one day, in a corner of the imperial palace, he discovered a mysterious field. Drawn by an inexplicable fragrance, he found himself approaching it.
And there, he discovered… a carrot?
“What is a carrot doing in a place like this…?”
“What, are you hungry? You look like a low-ranking knight—go ahead and take it. You can eat it.”
At the sight of a strange woman holding a pickaxe and speaking so kindly, Kai unconsciously picked up a carrot and took a bite.
That night—
“What was with that carrot… why does it keep coming to mind?”
