Teora 10: I’ll Walk

When Neito regained consciousness, he was in one of Metallica’s affiliate medical facilities After the battle had ended, his Miscellaneous comrades had carried hiunshot to his arm He had passed out from blood loss, and other than that, he hadn’t received any e

He could be discharged in a relatively short time, apparently, and he had done quite well this time around Exceptional results for Misc… Sorry about Manaka Don’t let it get you down The Misc Supervisor who came to see him explained as such, and had just left the hospital rooo

Maki finished up the flowers before shaking her hands in an exaggerated gesture

“… Thank you”

“You’re welco talked about even at the main branch!”

Perhaps she was trying to cheer hietic tone

“… I’m… sorry”

In a coe, Maki made a sullen expression
