Chapter 4: The Workplace Is a Play Place

Reign over the frosted heavens, Hyorinmaru!

*Shrieeeek!!!*

Hyorinmaru, were you able to take care of the ones over there?

Hey, hey. Does the scar on your face hurt?

Not at all.

Oh... Hey, hey. Aren't you hot?

I am not.

I think I'm thirsty. Can I have some ice?

Ice? Is there a place nearby where you can get any?

Noooo, I mean like...

Lieutenant Kusajishi, I don't mind if you tag along with us, but try not to bother us, will you?

I'm not bothering anyone. I'm just talking.

Exactly.

Master, where do we go next?

Right. There have been sightings of remnant Sword Beasts in the Rukon District.

We are to eliminate them in conjunction with Squad 6.

Understood.

Hey, hey. Don't you think those buns look yummy?

Lieutenant Kusajishi, you can go eat some snacks at the shop. We'll be heading out on our mission.

Aww. Come on, let's go together!

Lieutenant...

Your hair is pure white, Tooshy! And it's so fluffy!

You are both fluffy and poofy! You're like doggies!

Master... I am not sure what to do.

Lieutenant! That's enough!

Mmm, these buns are so yummy!

Master, are you sure getting a bun for her was the right thing to do?

I don't want to hear it. I know this is exactly what she wanted.

Hey, there's something over there! Wait for me!

Master, it looked like that was one of the Sword Beasts.

She's a lieutenant after all. I'm sure she can handle it without any problem.

Plus...if she stays with us any longer, I'm gonna go crazy. Letting her go do her own thing is the right choice.

Is that how it goes?

That's exactly how it goes.
