However, what was hardest to believe was the incredible stroke of luck she found herself into.

[color=ed1c24]“To think I would get bumped up the ranks all at once, and even get a medal. I guess I can finally stop worrying about money?”[/color] The grin in her face was one of partial disbelief as she finished getting into her [url=https://danbooru.donmai.us/posts/3291733]new uniform[/url], swung her coat over her shoulders, and struck a cool pose in front of her mirror.

A few minutes later…

[color=ed1c24]“May I… erm, come in?”[/color] Akari’s voice was hesitant as she reached Commander’s office and laid eyes on the scene going on there. [color=ed1c24]“I’m, Lieutenant—no, I mean Major Chiyoda. I believe I was… called here because of my recent promotion?
