「Is that so? Then, let’s go.」

Major Slayra told us to learn from these girls.

I’m a soldier.

A soldier’s job is to follow orders.

I don’t know what I’m supposed to do but I’ll do whatever it takes to do it.

「By the way, are you okay with that arrangement?」

「Of course, sir. However, Second Lieutenant, are you alright with that?」

「I’m okay, Sergeant Love.」

「Hehe, sorry to oppose you second lieutenant but I would prefer to be called East. That’s the name my grandma back home gave me.」

「Understood. Just call me Robos.」

「Affirmative, Second Lieutenant Robos.」

This guy sounds so light hearted but…..

We’re going to be partners from now on so let’s leave other things behind.

「Then, let’s go to that baseball store or something.」

「Affirmative」

「OOhh!」

「Ohhh!」

Thus, from the bright ground, an improvised four-man unit departed.

「Have you two ever watched a baseball game?」

「I’ve seen a few matches from the side of the stadium but I was working at that time so I don’t know much about it.」

「I haven’t seen one either since I’ve been too busy with work.」

「Whoah, I guess it’s hard being a soldier.」

「Right, right, it’s hard work.」

「Hey Tashiba, you’re being too easy going……」

While chatting with the commoners, who were asking us questions in a very casual manner, we walked toward a baseball equipment store that is owned by the Schenker family.

On the back alleyway we passed, there was a poster, the glue’s not even dry yet, saying: The baseball team, East City’s  Shopping Street Bald Team, is looking for members. Bald heads are preferred. Those with hair should shave it off.

I had wondered earlier whether a strange business such as a baseball store could be viable but…..if it’s this popular, I guess it is.

The cat that was taking a nap woke up startled by our footsteps, knocked over a potted yellow flowers, and ran away.

It had been extremely hot every day but today was unusually cooler.

I know how it feels to want to sleep so sorry for waking you up.

However, it feels a little strange to be walking in the city unprotected like this.

Normally, I watch the behavior of passersby with my eyes like saucers and I was always ready to be a shield in case of an emergency and my spirit was always boiling.

I had never paid attention to the flyers on the back alley wall or the color of the flowers on the pot by the kitchen door nor did I care.

「So, where is this place you are talking about?」

「The Schenker stores are all in central city. The practice place for White Beams was also in central city. The headquarters of MSG and master’s parent’s house are also in central city so our homebase is in central city.」

She’s a woman with many words just like my mother.

「Look look, there it is. That store with the bat and ball sign….」

Come to think of it, I couldn’t even send a letter to my parent’s house so far because of my mission. However, while I’m doing my current mission, I should be allowed to at least send a letter, right?

I’ll ask former Major Slayra about it later…..I was suddenly pulled into the store by Tashiba who’s still talking, while thinking about that.

She’s not afraid of a soldier even though she’s a commoner…..no, maybe she’s just an airhead.

I’m going to learn baseball from her from now on so this is going to be a pain in the ass.

Three days after ordering uniforms from the baseball supply store, Tashiba and I were watching a baseball match while our skin was being cooked by the sunlight.

Sergeant East and Mamu are going to practice catching when this game ends.

「Robos-sama, would you like a hot dog?」

「No」

「How about ale?」

「I’m working」

「Who do you think will win?」

「I don’t know.」
