Act 38 - The Medal Ceremony, and...
A month after the prisoner exchange.
Upon entrusting Fort Casper's defense to no more than eight thousand soldiers, Major General Ellman, the mixed army returned to Fort Gallia. There was no indication that the Keel Fortress would move, because the defensive line centered around Fort Casper formed a uniform shape. Lamberto and Ninehardt also went straight through the Gallia Fortress and back to the King's Capital.
Sometimes I had been away from the Gallia fortress for a while, Otto and others were so chased to their daily work that the sense of time was mahi.
Next to that otto is Ashton's figure, who officially took a step as a military teacher. Usually as a proximity to Otto, he was slapped on various things about the military.
Olivia and Claudia, on the other hand.
(If I asked you about this story, what would Ensign look like?
Claudia desperately returns her naturally loose cheeks. When I coughed up with Cohon, I knocked on the door.
"Claudia, right? You can come in."
Olivia guessed exactly right, even though she hasn't named it yet. Claudia opens the door wondering if it is also characteristic of the way she knocks.
There's the look of Olivia reading the book as she sleeps in bed unchanged. Olivia turned to Claudia and suddenly hit a hard word.
"What's going on? You look funny like that?
Was my cheek loose again before I realized it? Claudia argues hastily.
"Beh, I don't look funny or anything! More good news than that! Don't be surprised to ask. What a decision to award the" Golden Lion Medal "to Ensign!
"... hmm"
Olivia reads the book again when she answers that she doesn't seem interested. Silence dominates the scene, and the sound of perplexing and turning the book softly echoes in my ear.
(What!? That's it!?
They react unexpectedly and Claudia unwittingly solidifies. Speaking of which, I thought something similar had happened before.
(I thought I'd been pushed through a lot of trouble then...)
Claudia smiles bitterly before stuffing Olivia, who is sleeping in bed.
"Ensign! Don't you understand? It's the Golden Lion Medal, right? Only a few people have been awarded so far. This is a great honor."
"... Claudia really likes honor, doesn't she? I know I've told you before, but I'd rather have books and good food than that."
Olivia says as she gently taps the book in her hand. Claudia looks casually at the cover of the book, even though she is stunned by the statement.
Then, unexpectedly, it was Comet, a prank-loving fairy I used to read as a kid.
"Does Ensign like the prank-loving fairy Comet?
"Yeah. It's funny how Comet works so hard to prank you, even though you're freaked out by humans. Have you read Claudia, too?
Claudia answers with her chest stretched against Olivia, who looks intrigued. That question is just a stupid one.
"I'm not proud of it, but I have the Comet series in its entirety...... and it's embarrassing, but I've thought about catching it because I believe Comet is there"
As soon as she passed on her embarrassing childhood memories as she scratched her cheeks, Olivia jumped out of bed and grabbed both of Claudia's shoulders disappointingly.
It's like the predator who found his prey. Claudia screams unexpectedly at the impending appearance.
"Hey, what is it? Huh!?
"Together! I'm totally with you! I tried to catch Comet, too!
Claudia breathes a ho when she finds out Olivia's attitude is due to the joy of finding the same companion. At the same time, I felt happy.
Because I didn't have one friend at the time who would empathize with me. Claudia therefore makes one suggestion.
"Oh, really? That's an odd encounter. If you like it so much, can I give it to you? Because I think I still have the whole roll at my parents" house. "
"What!? Are you sure?"
Olivia smiles as if the flowers were blooming. If you could turn a smile like this, most men would fall.
If he's a man of great nobility, he's going to give away about a hundred or two books fine. Claudia felt her shoulder bones clasp, but thought it had no such benefit either.
"Of course I don't mind. But there are more than twenty copies of the Comet series. Um... are you okay?
Asked looking over the mountains and the books piled up all over the room, Olivia nodded loudly just saying she had no problem at all.
"I'm perfectly fine. Because Ashton will help me clean it up. Claudia's with Ashton, too, and she's a good person!
"Ha. Thank you for that."
While I'm slightly confused by the same strange rhetoric, I'll be honest with you at once.
(For now, I told him about the Golden Lion Medal. I'll see if you need this later.)
Claudia glanced at the white box holding beside her and spoke to Olivia.
"By the way, does Ensign have your liturgical clothes?
"A tuxedo? I don't have that."
"You've had trouble with that. The Symphony is required to wear liturgical clothing."
"Can't it be military uniforms?
He asked, pinching the military uniform Olivia was wearing. For the most part, it's enough with military uniforms, but the Symphony goes into one of the exceptions.
"Unfortunately, no"
"Eh. Then you don't have to be at the Symphony."
Claudia smiles and grabs Olivia's arm as she tries to reach for the book again. Was that unexpected behavior, Olivia rounding her eyes?
"K, Claudia!?
"What do you do if you don't have a lead role!... you have no choice anymore. I thought that would happen, and I brought the liturgical clothes I kept in reserve. Fortunately, Ensign and I are almost the same height, so I think we can wear them without any problems"
"Er, that's bad. You don't have to worry about me."
Olivia throws up a bar reading line as she strays her eyes. Claudia squeezed her arms even harder as she tried to shake them off subtly.
"Say that with more emotion. Come on, get dressed quickly. Oh, if there's anything inconvenient, don't hesitate to say it. Because I'll re-tailor it."
With that said, I hand Olivia a white courtesy dress. The shoulder tag is embroidered with a cup and lion, the crest of the kingdom.
I left it in the box for spare, but apparently there's no damage.
"Yep. You know, Claudia's getting tough lately."
Olivia takes off her uniform, pointing her mouth, but reluctantly so. The making is the same as the military uniform, so it didn't take long for Olivia to finish dressing.
There is the figure of a Rin woman officer, as if she had jumped out of the world of stories.
"You look great, as I thought."
With such praise, Olivia has tipped her little neck over and over as she pinches her liturgical clothes. It feels like I'm obviously dissatisfied.
"What have you done?
From what I've seen, there's no problem with the length. Thought you wouldn't even have to re-tailor it.
"Mm-hmm. You kind of have a pretty painful chest. Loose hips..."
…………
"Claudia, are you asking?
"That's what it is. Please keep it on because it is a specification."
"Huh? But I said I would re-tailor it if it was inconvenient earlier..."
"There's nowhere to re-tailor"
"Just now..."
"None."
"... well, you are. I think Claudia's right, too."
Olivia takes off her liturgical clothes as she leans her neck many more times. Cold, watched by a glance as cold as ice.

─ ─ Fortress Gallia, Great Hall.
It is a large hall that is rarely used, but only today it was different. The chandelier emits brilliant light on the ceiling, with the iconic cup of the kingdom and the lion's crest flag flying on the side walls.
And there is an alignment of civilians on the left and martial officers on the right, centered on the main paul of the fortress. Next to Paul, Otto.
On the pedestal was placed a golden medal that mimicked a lion.
"Now I'd like to start the medal ceremony."
The trumpet sounds with the signal of initiation, and a heavy door is opened by the guard. It was Olivia dressed in white liturgical clothing who showed up.
Moving forward dignified without looking cowardly before the officers in line. Only rumors precede and for the first time many of the civilians I have seen stare with a surprise look.
Some of them were taking off their glasses and wiping their lenses.
(I suppose you thought she was a fancy girl, just like her Excellency in the beginning)
Yes Otto is guessing that a civilian who was nearby said, "Who is it? And whoever said she was a gorgeous girl," and so on.
As Olivia walks over in front of Paul, she kneels one knee to flow with her hands against her chest. Otto was simply surprised by his truly brilliant behavior.
Because I didn't have time to teach liturgical practices, so some misconduct was meant to meditate on my eyes. As he gazes at Claudia, who lines up at the edge of the line, he is shaking his thoughtful head sideways.
Apparently, Claudia didn't even plant it. When I took my gaze off and turned to Paul, my eyes were shining like I had found something interesting.
"Ensign Olivia. In recognition of this great achievement, I hereby award the Golden Lion Medal"
"Ha, it's an extra honor."
Otto puts a medal on Olivia's chest on one knee. Olivia took a step back when she stood up and offered a deep salute.
Turning back on his heel, he flicks a crimson cloak engraved with the crest of the kingdom and walks right out. There was a lot of exclamation coming out of the officers.
"And excuse me!
The soldiers who have suddenly broken in make the place white at once. Otto's fury flies as the officers frown.
"We're in the middle of a medal ceremony right now! You couldn't wait any longer!
"Also, I'm sorry. But."
Paul opens his mouth to the soldier who hesitates.
"I don't mind. What can I do for you?"
"Ha, it's faster than Wang Du! The third and fourth armies have been destroyed on the northern front!
Sometimes, Light Yin Calendar 999.
Further dark clouds can enter the kingdom.
