A Special Encounter With An Imperial Princess As I Get Reincarnated To Isekai

An Encounter With Yuki

Days blurred into an indistinct flow of time as Satoru gradually opened his weary eyes, his expression one of mild exhaustion.

He had been enduring Janne's intense training regimen, which had notably improved his magical abilities and physical endurance.

But today, he felt drained. He wanted to visit the Celestial Atrium in Astralsya to unwind, perhaps even train with Yuki at the Kendo club.

Entering his bathroom for a quick wash, Satoru looked at his reflection in the mirror. There was a sense of both familiarity and alienation.

The face staring back at him was that of a handsome young man with black hair.

His bangs framed his face perfectly, not too long and not too short.

His face was lean, with a defined jawline free of any excess flesh.

His newly transformed visage was one he found quite satisfactory, devoid of the nerdy and overworked aura he once had.

Descending the stairs, Satoru was greeted by the nostalgic scent of freshly baked bread.

It was the loaf he had received from Yuki during a casual stroll in Astralsya a few days prior.

He still felt grateful for Yuki's generosity, although he couldn't fathom why she had given him the bread in the first place.

But for someone like Yuki, with her vast and wealthy family, a loaf of bread was likely just a trivial gift.

"Finally decided to use that loaf? It's been sitting here for days," Satoru remarked, his voice tinged with mild curiosity.

"Yeah, just felt like making a sandwich today," Janne replied, her tone casual.

In truth, Janne had delayed using the bread because she knew it was a gift from Yuki.

She couldn't quite understand why Yuki seemed so interested in Satoru.

They had only known each other for about a week.

Yet, Yuki, an imperial princess with a busy schedule, had taken the time to stroll through Astralsya with Satoru and even gifted him a loaf of bread at that day.

Janne couldn't help but wonder about Satoru's significance to Yuki.

For someone who had only known him for a week, Yuki's actions seemed unusually close and considerate.

Satoru sat down at the kitchen table, savoring the aroma of the freshly made sandwich.

Janne joined him, her eyes scrutinizing him with a mix of curiosity and concern.

"So, what's your plan for today?" Janne asked, breaking the silence.

"I was thinking of heading to the Celestial Atrium. Maybe relax a bit, and if I feel up to it, I'll visit the Kendo club and train with Yuki," Satoru replied between bites.

Janne nodded, her expression contemplative. "Just don't overdo it. You've been pushing yourself pretty hard lately."

"I know," Satoru said, smiling softly. "But I feel like I need to keep improving. There's so much more I want to learn and achieve."

Janne sighed, her concern evident. "Just promise me you'll take it easy, okay? Don't push yourself to the point of exhaustion again."

Satoru reached out, giving her hand a reassuring squeeze. "I promise."

With breakfast finished, Satoru gathered his things and prepared to leave.

Janne watched him with a mixture of pride, annoyance, resignation and apprehension.
