I conducted my morning stretch ritual as Bita watched me, his gaze told me that he thought I was crazy. Once I had finished preparing myself for the day, I did a once-over of myself to ensure that I had everything. I felt my sword at my hip which brought me more comfort than I ever thought it would. I shut my eyes for a moment, took a deep breath, and opened them as I began to walk towards the door.
"K-Kenji-san wait a minute!" Bita ran towards me, his feet made their soft pattering noise on the stone floor as he did so. "You really plan to just… head out? Didn't you come here to fight the Demon King's army?"
