Side Story: Piping Hot Meat Plus Zara and Mell’s Romance Support Squad
MELL was irreplaceable to the Second Expeditionary Squadron.
But Mell was not an ordinary girl.
She was born and raised in the Fore Elf woods, abandoned by her fiancé, Lance, and thanks to her strong will, she decided to move to the royal capital and work for a living. Mell had another problem on her hands: she possessed extremely strong magical energy but was unable to actually use magic.
She discovered her magical energy was unimaginably powerful only after measuring it for the first time. What, exactly, was stopping her from using it as she pleased?
That answer turned out to be directly related to an issue plaguing the Fore Elves as a whole.
At first, her village’s magic healer told her that he sealed her energy away because it was simply too powerful. However, that wasn’t the full truth. There was a Dark Dragon locked away inside the Fore Elf woods—requiring sacrifices of people with strong magical energy.
The healer’s plan was to spare Mell’s life and sacrifice his own in her place.
The Dark Dragon had been offered sacrifices of Fore Elves for many years already. Yet that grim history came to an end once Sir Aiskoletta, the great hero, slayed the monster.
No Fore Elf would have to give up their life for the beast ever again.
However, the seal on Mell’s magical energy remained in place.
Even after the Dark Dragon’s defeat, the threat of Mell losing control of her magic still existed.
She had no talent for casting spells and didn’t have a need for so much magical energy in the first place. Even the seal on her energy had no negative effects on Mell or the healer who cast it. That was why, after some discussion, they decided to leave it in place.
The Fore Elves lived for many, many years under a system of arranged marriages. But now, they could marry the person they loved.
That was when something shocking happened.
Lance, Mell’s ex-fiancé, came to her and proposed marriage. Everyone watched the scene in anticipation of her answer, but Mell bluntly told him, “I can’t. I’ve already promised to marry Zara.”
Mell finally had her shot at true happiness.
Everyone wished the couple well. However, three months passed after the Dark Dragon slaying, yet Zara and Mell had yet to even announce their engagement to the world.
Were the two ever going to get married?
This is the story of Ulgus and the “Zara and Mell’s Romance Support Squad”—formed out of concern for the future of their relationship.
