Listen, my fondness for sweet foods somehow reached the ears of the soldiers at Watatsumi Island. As a result, they prepared a cake for me, saying, "Gorou, please take it." Conditions at Watatsumi Island are not that well, and I should exercise restraint as a general... But if I refuse this cake, I'm afraid I'll disappoint them. So I try to put myself in their shoes! If I receive a letter asking for help in a similar situation, how should I give advice? "Share this cake with soldiers and friends, and when there is something good in the future, share it with others." Yep! That's the way to go! Let's have the cake together! | |

I recently caught wind that the troops are planning a birthday celebration for me. Though I don't want to trouble everyone, I also don't want to disappoint them. After some consideration, I've decided to host a tournament. The format will require participants to register in teams of two, which will allow each person to demonstrate their individual skill on top of promoting teamwork and trust! I've sent letters to Captain Beidou and Kazuha, and I hope they can make it here on time. As for Narukami Island, Arataki Itto was the first to reply, saying: "Don't you worry, 'cause victory belongs to Arataki 'No Doubt About It-to'!" Thoma has also responded that he intends to participate alongside Taroumaru. Such a gathering of masters and experts — ah, I can barely contain my excitement... Um, I mean— would you come join the tournament as my partner? That is, if you have the time, of course. With you by me side, we'd be invincible! | |

Have you been well lately? Those alchemical potions we bought from you last time were just amazing! Everyone feels like they have a lot more energy while they work, and the cargo ship that carried them also brought way more goods than usual. Speaking of goods... Though we all understand that relying solely on imports isn't practical in the long term, rushing things here won't do us any good. We still need to improve productivity on Watatsumi Island, one step at a time. In the meantime, instilling confidence and maintaining morale is equally important. So, after some deliberation with the soldiers, we decided to work together and use some really novel ingredients to make a celebratory cake! You're the hero behind our success this time, so please be sure to have a taste of this "Morale Cake." And let's continue to work hard together in the days to come! | |

Among the recent reader-response letters sent by Yae Publishing House, one was exceptionally lengthy and written in a rather... unrestrained manner. Although the editor's note suggested it could be dismissed with a casual reply, I believe in responding sincerely, whether addressing soldiers or readers. It's just that... The author claimed to be a leader versed in martial arts, painting, rock music, insect behavioral studies, card games, and a commander of elite troops who frequent key facilities like the Tenryou Commission. Then, after several pages of this grandiloquence, the letter abruptly ended... without posing a single question for me to answer. You've seen much more of the world than I have. Have you ever encountered such an accomplished figure? What troubles do you think someone like them might face? And if you have the time, could you read through and comment on my draft reply? Of course, no good deed shall go unrewarded. Allow me to compensate you with fresh seafood delicacies from Watatsumi Island! | |

| On previous birthdays, having Radish and Fish Stew would really hit the spot. After all, we had to keep everything simple, resources were far too scarce to be deployed so lavishly. I didn't expect you to bring me such an exquisite cake just to celebrate my birthday. Thank you, Traveler! It looks so artistic, but I don't even know where to start cutting it... Hmm... Any advice, Traveler? | |
| C'mon, Tawara, say hi to the Traveler! Haha, he's quite frisky! As our camp dog, tracking enemies and retrieving wounded are what Tawara is best at. But rather than sending him on missions, I much prefer to see him relaxed and carefree like this. As for the responsibility of protecting this hard-won peace... leave it to me! | |
| Good morning! I was just about to start my training routine. Why don't you join me for a few rounds of strength training? Regular training is crucial in order to respond to the various emerging situations on the battlefield. On top of that, warriors must have a profound understanding of tactics— Oh, you want to know the secrets behind my formations? Let me give you a demonstration. With your intelligence and talent, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it in no time! | |
| I thought it over and decided to wait for you on the bridge. This way, we can talk a little in private before you reach the campsite. Word of your heroic deeds in Natlan has already spread — everyone's eager to hear how you overcame the odds. Would you mind telling me how you pulled it off? —Ah, wait! That's something the others will probably ask you too. If I bring it up now, won't that make our chat feel pointle—? ...Anyway, let's talk about something else first. The cherry blossoms falling around us... They're beautiful, aren't they? |
