Book 3: Epilogue 5
** Lark **
When the boss and the other guy looked back, they saw the “young miss”ーLark poking out her head from behind the door.
Now out of her combat uniform, the shirts and trousers made of synthetic linen she donned seemed quite thin-looking, but, in fact, Lark herself has lost a lot of weight.
「Young miss! Why are you up?! You have to go back to sleep!」the boss cried.
「So noisy. I’m doing just fine.」
Beads of sweat pearled on Lark’s forehead as she walked out with a hand on the wall for support.
「I don’t see any fine in you at all. We’re so worried that our hearts are about to explode. Please just go back and rest.」
「Don’t be crazy. You guys were so cowardly, I had to take care of everything after all.」
「We should have just ignored such a big monster. You’re the one who insisted on “crushing” it. We didn’t really need to turn around the Queen of the Night.」
