"Tomorrow our Mercenary Group is setting out," someone said.
"Where to?"
"To the other side of the Alps, Innsbruck City. It's said to have been invaded by the Wolf Family's vanguard."
"Just The Azure Longsword going?"
"Of course not. Part of the force is coming from the Earl of Innsbruck, and the Weisbach family is providing another part."
"So, we're just assisting?"
Sitting on small stools inside Fire Island, Medea and Thira were nibbling on sunflower seeds from a plate on their table, chattering away.
When Aske teleported to Fire Island, he asked in confusion, "Where is everyone?"
"They're all on holiday," Medea said.
"Holiday?" Aske was even more puzzled.
"Didn't you say yesterday, after training ended, to let everyone relax for a day?" Thira asked.
"Did I say that?" Aske frowned.
The two girls looked horrified. No way! Was he really going to deny it? That's a bit too much, Squad Leader!
