Fii’s was the Captain… Or so she wanted to say, but she knew that it was impossible to become like him.
That’s why she set a more realistic goal.
“I guess I’d pick Kain-san.”
“Kain-san?”
“Who the heck is that?”
Fii replied.
“You know, he’s the one that’s always hiding in the treetops, and who for some reason always hides his mouth. He’s really kind.”
“Hidings in the treetops?”
“He hides his face?”
“Is that really a knight…?”
Apparently nobody knew about him. Even though Captain York, Crow-san, Orbull-san, and Palwick-san were so famous…
“Muu, he’s so really cool though…”
Fii puffed her cheeks unhappily and swore that she would one day make Kain-san known to them.
While the the boys chatted about this and that, they headed towards the lower parts of town.
It wasn’t rare for them to wander about here, and some of the familiar shopkeepers waved to them.
About thirty percent of the apprentice knights were from noble families while the other seventy percent consisted of commoners. Well, commoners and people with dubious backgrounds like Fii.
Out of the people Fii was close to, it was Doug and Remié that were nobles. Gorms, Slad, and Gheith were from Lowtown.
Perhaps because commoners formed the majority, the apprentice knights most frequented Lowtown. It was most appropriate for their salary as well, so even the apprentices from noble backgrounds became used to it.
But well, once they got a little older like Crow-san and their salaries increased a little, many would start going to more mature stores though.
Anyway, although they were heading to Lowtown today, their destination was a little different this time.
Fii suddenly realised that she hadn’t asked where they were going.
She had thought for sure that they’d be shopping or something, but they were headed in a different direction to the shopping district.
“Hey, where are we going by the way?”
The boys replied.
“Aah, did we not mention? Today we’re all going to the sauna.”
“It’s a bit lonely just bathing everyday, yanno?”
“Recently this cheap place appeared, so we all decided to go.”
Sauna…
In other words, taking off your clothes, entering a room filled with steam, and sweating your body clean…
And, very obviously, something that everyone entered together…
Dear midoriha-san,
Nice to meet you!
Thank you for reading my story.
I also have trouble figuring out the ships while writing it, so I’m glad that you’re enjoying yourself.
Also, thank you for the wonderful picture.
Kain carrying Fii in a princess carry. It’s terribly cute.
I hope that you’ll continue to enjoy my story.
