The girl who was walking slowly from the door of the hotel was not only striking about her special hair color and pupil color. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info looked at it from a distance from the door, and her generous and natural temperament was what made it stand out the most.

The girl, who was laughing with her companions, caught a glimpse of the three people standing at the door from a distance, and then, without knowing who she greeted, raised her hand and shook it, but the girl who jumped up happily fell to the ground with her feet staggering straight and falling forward. This scene made the three men standing at the door of the hotel slapped their foreheads with a tacit understanding, covered their faces and sighed.

Fortunately, the short-haired woman next to the girl, who looked about the same age as Cruz, quickly supported her and saved her from having a positive and all-round intimate contact with the earth. If he hadn't seen the woman with the neat short black hair beside the girl, Levi would have been unable to help but make a move just now. Although the companions around the girl should be ordinary people living in a peaceful world, Levi wants the girl to avoid falling on the ground, and why not just teleport over to help her up?

"Mao, long time no see. ”

Levi smiled at the woman who had just picked up the silver-haired girl, this was also a friend he had met in his previous cooperation with Mithril, a Chinese-American, his full name was Melissa Mao, his military rank was higher than that of Sosuke Sagara and Cruz, and he was also the boss of the two of them, and was the leader of the team composed of the three of them.

"Ah, long time no see! I didn't expect to meet you here, but when Sousuke told me yesterday that you might be at this hotel, I wondered if he had made a mistake. This kid didn't get good grades in school at all!"

Mao was also afraid that what he said would be heard by the students behind him, so he quickened his pace and walked into the hotel first, and lowered his voice when he greeted Levi.

"Oh, didn't Sagara get good grades in school? I thought that someone like him who was so serious and strict with himself shouldn't be too bad no matter what he did. ”

Levi said as if surprised as if he was joking. Of course, he knew that if Sosuke Sagara did not do well in school, it must be due to the lack of time and energy due to his heavy responsibilities and the fact that he often had to juggle other tasks in the army. Although it is true that there are many things in this world that require a certain amount of talent to do well, that often refers to the level that continues to deepen after reaching a certain level. You can't just train hard to be a muscular pervert like Jack Lakan, and in the same way, you can't be a scientist like Super Suzune just by working hard. However, the high school curriculum is not to mention that of scientists, and with Levy's years of experience, it has not yet reached the limit of completely distinguishing talents. Of course, when it comes to school, people who are naturally smart can learn more in less time. But as long as they are willing to work hard, even children with a stupid head will not be able to get the same score as those geniuses in the exam. Like Sosuke Sagara, who is strict with himself in everything, and others seem to think that he is even excessively harsh and almost masochistic, if he goes all out to study, even if the foundation is poor and he lags behind at the beginning, he can catch up quickly, at least he will not become a poor student who is teased by others for his grades.

"How can this kid have time and be in the mood to study?, ah, let's not talk about it for now, we'll talk about it later. ”

Mao patted Sagara on the shoulder, feeling a little pity for the young man. But the students in the back had already come to the door, so it was naturally inconvenient to talk about things that should not be known to ordinary people.

"You can sit on the couch over there for a while, or you can walk around, and I'll go check in with Sousuke first. ”

Cruz beckoned the boys and girls to rest on the couch where Levi had been sitting before, neither he nor Mao had introduced Levi to the children, so they had met strangers on the way. Anyway, the children had only seen Levi standing in the doorway, and they hadn't seen him talk much to the three of them.

However, when passing by Levi's side, the silver-haired girl who almost fell outside the door before still took advantage of the lack of attention of her companions and quietly greeted Levi with her eyes.

"Mr. McDowell, it's a pleasure to meet you here. This morning Mao told me that he might meet an acquaintance at the hot spring hotel today, and I thought she was referring to Lieutenant Commander Madukas who had sent other people on the ship here in advance to meet her!"

The silver-haired girl sat in a chair by the bed in the living room of Lévy's suite, and covered her mouth to Lévy about some interesting things that had happened on their way to the hotel today.

For high school students, a few hours of travel is not a tiring task at all. What's more, the so-called rush is just sitting in someone else's car and chatting to pass the time. Even if you are really tired, as long as you reach the destination, you will definitely have the strength to come immediately. Originally, a group of young people gathered together had this effect of 'stimulating potential'.

Sousuke Sagara's group of classmates, who had just arrived at the hotel, said that they had all gone out to the forest to 'explore'. The silver-haired girl sitting in Lévy's room politely came to visit Lévy's room on the grounds that her body was relatively weak and she needed a little rest after she had been bumpy for a long time.

After all, the girl, whose full name is Teresa Testarosa, is only one year older than Levi's 'youngest daughter' and one year younger than Levi's 'eldest daughter', despite having just turned sixteen this year. However, she is truly the supreme leader of the unit to which Sosuke Sagara, Cruz Wieba, and Melissa Mao belong, the commander-in-chief of the Western Pacific branch of Mithril, and the captain of the attack on the Yoshi submarine [Son of Dannu].

In the eyes of Sosuke Sagara and the three other front-line combatants, Levi was a comrade-in-arms with special abilities who had helped them many times, but in the eyes of Commander Tystarosa, who was in charge of the central affairs, Lévi was an unfathomable 'force' that could use his strength to tide over difficulties when necessary.

Soldiers like Sosuke Sagara only need to complete the orders given from above, and as for whether or not there is Levi's help in the operation, although they must have some expectations after tasting the sweetness a few times, they will not calculate the assistance of others into their own strength. Seeking the help of someone like Levi was one of the 'diplomatic jobs' of a commander like the silver-haired girl, and she naturally needed to pay more attention to etiquette and communication than Sagara, who regarded Lévy as a 'temporary comrade-in-arms', or even Cruz, a 'close friend' - let's take it seriously.
