I Was Sent to an All-Female Frontline Unit to Get Rid of Some of the Trouble, but the Most Beautiful Girls Who Are Rumored to Hate Men Love Me So Much That I Have a Hard Time at Night - Chapter 13: Morning (2)
Chapter 13: Morning (2)
“Huh…!?”
Helping Norn put on her underwear…!?
The shocking words left me speechless.
If I can be of help, I want to be useful in any way possible.
That thought hasn’t changed, not even now.
But… helping Norn put on her underwear…!?
“W-why would I do something like that…!?”
“Why? Well, do you think it’s okay for me to walk around with my breasts exposed?”
“Huh!?”
Exposed.
In other words, what Norn is currently covering with her left hand and arm would be completely visible…!
“T-that’s… not good, or rather, that would be very problematic… um… I-I think you should wear clothes…”
My words got terribly stuck, but she’s a woman.
And not just any woman—someone as beautiful as Norn saying something like that makes me nervous…
My face is getting really hot…!
“Right? But bras have hooks on the back, so it’s really hard to put them on alone.”
“I-is that so…?”
Of course, I barely know anything about women’s underwear.
“Yeah. But if you help me, Finn, I can put it on right away.”
“T-that may be true, but… I’ve never put underwear on a woman before, so I don’t know if I can do it properly…”
“Such a cute worry… but don’t worry, I’ll teach you very carefully.”
“! C-carefully…?”
“Yes, carefully… I’ll make sure to teach you thoroughly.”
“…”
Somehow, Norn’s voice sounded a little seductive.
I can’t put it into words properly, but there was this mysterious, bewitching atmosphere…
But if Norn is troubled and asking for my help—
“Then, first, let’s go to my room together?”
Norn’s room.
I feel a little nervous, but if it means I can be of help to her…!
“Underst—”
“No way!!”
“!?”
A loud voice echoed through the entire floor.
With hurried footsteps, Elena appeared.
Her expression looked very flustered, and before I could react, she covered my eyes with both hands.
“Hey, Norn! Stop sleeping without clothes already! And what are you trying to do, dragging Finn into your room!?”
“Dragging him in? That sounds so bad~. I was just asking Finn to help me put on my bra.”
“Wha—!? F-Finn!? Is that true!?”
“Y-yes… She said it was difficult to do alone, so I was going to… h-help Norn with her u-underwear…”
Saying it out loud made it even more embarrassing, and I covered my face with both hands.
Elena then removed her hands from my eyes and—
“Ugh…! Norn! Stop lying to confuse Finn! You can put on underwear by yourself!”
“Eh~? But it’s easier if someone helps—”
“Just put it on by yourself! And hurry up and come to the living room!!”
“Ah—”
The moment Elena firmly ordered her, Norn fell silent.
At the same time, I heard the sound of a door closing.
When I slowly lowered my hands from my face, I saw Elena standing there, sighing after closing the door.
“E-Elena…”
I muttered, and Elena quickly approached me.
“Finn, did Norn do anything weird to you?”
“W-weird…? I don’t think so…”
“I see…”
She sighed in relief and then gently patted my head.
“Talking about girls’ underwear first thing in the morning must have been really embarrassing for you, Finn… but it’s okay now.”
“S-sorry… I just wanted to help, but in the end, I ended up causing trouble…”
“No, it’s fine. I understand how you feel, Finn, so don’t worry… Come on, everyone’s waiting. Let’s go to the living room together.”
“Elena… Yes…!”
Nodding, I walked with Elena toward the living room.
—Being with Elena makes my heart feel warm.
Being with everyone in this frontline unit makes my heart feel warm.
Since joining the military, I’ve never felt this way before…
As we walked, that thought grew stronger within me.
Then, I suddenly smelled something very nice, a scent that wasn’t there before.
This is… the smell of food!
Thinking that, I entered the living room with Elena—
“Ah! You two are back!”
“Welcome back!”
“The food’s ready, Teraward!”
“Let’s all eat together!”
“Y-yes!”
As everyone welcomed us, I sat down with Elena and looked at the table.
And there—
“…Wow! A-amazing…!”
A perfectly grilled steak.
A fluffy omelet.
A fragrant, delicious-smelling soup.
A colorful, vibrant salad, and more.
Just looking at it made my stomach growl—it all looked incredibly delicious.
As I stared in awe—
“Finn, you don’t have to just look. You can eat too, you know.”
Hearing that voice, I turned to my side.
There stood Sephia, a beautiful blonde woman.
“Sephia…! You made this meal, didn’t you!?”
“Yes. Not just me, but I took charge of the main dishes… I’ve never cooked for a man before, so I feel a bit nervous.”
With her cheeks slightly flushed, Sephia looked somewhat embarrassed.
The more I looked at it, the more her food seemed to shine.
“You may start eating anytime. Please use the utensils over there and enjoy your meal.”
“O-okay…!”
To start, I decided to try the omelet.
I picked up a spoon and faced the omelet in front of me.
“…!”
“Teraward is holding a spoon…!”
“So cute…”
“Getting to see Teraward eat…!”
“What kind of face will he make while eating…?”
“It’s definitely going to be adorable…!”
“I can already imagine it.”
For some reason, everyone started getting excited.
But since no one was directly talking to me, I focused on the omelet in front of me and moved my spoon closer—
“Report! Report!”
Suddenly, a female soldier rushed into the living room and spoke—
“Enemy sighted at the frontline! Five hundred of them! They’re heading toward this base!!”
“!?”
Hearing the report, I instinctively loosened my grip on the spoon.
Enemies…!
That’s right… Everyone here has such a bright atmosphere that I almost forgot—this is the frontlines of a war zone.
Yesterday, there were no enemy attacks, but here, enemies coming is just an everyday occurrence!
“Everyone—”
Just as I was about to call out to them, I looked at everyone and saw their expressions darken.
Hearing the number 500, I thought they were feeling down, but—
“…Unbelievable.”
“The worst…”
“Teraward was about to eat…”
“We were about to see his cute eating face…”
“Unforgivable…”
Their voices were quiet, so I couldn’t hear exactly what they were saying, but they didn’t seem discouraged.
Rather, their fighting spirit was rising.
Elena stood up beside me and declared—
“Everyone! I’m mad too, but we fight as usual! Let’s show Finn the strength of the Luvankrum Empire’s strongest unit! This is our chance to impress him!”
And with those words, everyone’s spirits ignited.
Together, we left the base and headed toward the enemy sighting point────
