D-898 until discharge.

"Ishina, what do you plan to do after discharge?"

"Hmm. I don’t have a concrete plan yet, but I’ll probably go back to studying."@@novelbin@@

"What kind of— Hey, Jason! Your boots are mismatched with your squadmates'!"

"Ugh! Thanks! Patty, Matty, for the love of—!"

In the past, I would’ve run straight over and grabbed my juniors by the collars whenever they messed up. But lately, I had been living a rather relaxed life.

That was because Jaiden and Milphy had both been promoted to senior private this month, and Benny had just joined them.

Oh, and in three months, Ishina would also be promoted and transferred to another unit.

The same went for Aquila and me. Which meant… we had less than three-digit days left until discharge!

Wow, less than three digits left… I’ve never been happier.

…In my previous life’s South Korea, wasn’t three-digit service days just the normal thing? Maybe I was just imagining it.

Anyway, that was why I had been feeling extra lighthearted lately.

Even Ishina, who had always had dark circles under his eyes, looked much more refreshed. Aquila, too, seemed completely at ease. And Karon—well, he was always smiling.

"Jaiden, you need to do a better job managing the recruits. Three of them died in training last time."

"…I’m sorry."

Just because we were both senior privates didn’t mean we were equal. Jaiden and I had over a year’s gap in experience, and even now, I made sure to keep him in check. Life was perfect.

"Hey, Salvia."

"Yes?"

"The new recruits are getting lazy. Are you slacking off?"
