The long rainy season finally came to an end. There would be a refreshing breeze in the morning – a weather perfect for a light jacket to be put on top.

Under the especially tall skies and cleaner sunlight of a certain countryside village,Team Mochi was waiting to be sent in for the first mission they received from the Association.

Sitting on the middle of the mountain, they had to keep on waiting so in the meantime, Sophia kept on fidgeting with her watch.

“Oi, Sophia,” Yeorum called her.

“Huh?”

“Stop looking at your watch.”

“Why. Theres an article about me. Do you wanna have a look?”

“Like I said, just stop looking at it. Its gonna distract you.”

“No. Its my first time getting so much attention.”

“Ey.”

Yeorum tried to snatch the watch off her hand. “Okay, I wont. I wont. So damn strict,” Sophia said irritatedly before finally turning off the hologram of her watch.

“Are you guys alright?”

“Huh? Uhh… fuu, a bit nervous.”

“…Just so-so.”

Soujiro and Kim Ji-in both touched their respective weapons – the bow and the musket. The metal feeling colder than usual was probably due to the climate of early Autumn. The chill touching their fingers made their hearts colder as well.

Blankly sitting in silence, the four of them turned quiet. Before long, Kim Ji-in broke the silence.

“……Do you think, we can do well.”

Her words represented the thoughts of everyone else.

“I know right, f*ck. People were so freaking expectant. My guardian was cheering me up like crazy as well. Tch…”

“I got a call from my mum as well. Haha… Apparently theres another placard at the entrance of my village. Do you want a look?”

“No.”

“Ah okay… sorry Sophia.” Soujiro apologised.

“Kim Ji-in, what about you?”

“My mum was expecting a lot. Its probably all because Im with Yeorum though.”

Her words reminded them of the core focus of the team.
