 A stern face appears in front of me with a thud. ...... What a stern face! You're going to be happy if you keep wrinkling your brow like that.

 You're right. We don't need a man who doesn't want to do his job. If there's one lazy person, discipline breaks down.

 The man rolls his eyes, as if he didn't expect me to apologize. The soldiers around him freeze.

 Captain Marius's face goes pale. ...... Oh, I've offended him. I'm not a lady... but it doesn't score me any points for being a bad girl.

 Come to think of it, this might be the first time I've ever talked to a captain like this. We didn't have much contact with soldiers in Durkis.

 That's it? Just 200 pushups? That's not really a punishment for anything, is it?

 Maybe I should tell you: ....... I'd rather be punished with a thousand pushups or so.

 I can't believe he can talk to the captain like that, maybe the vice captain. He is thinner than the captain, but has good muscles.

 Funny thing is, no matter how hard I try, I never get any muscles, so I envy him.

 You can't increase the number of times you do this if you don't encourage it. Two hundred times is no penalty at all.
