Editing Unlimited Fafnir:Brynhildr Valkyries Chapter 3 (section)

===Part 4===

The wind was howling.

The trees outside were swaying violently while raindrops fell diagonally to strike the window.

"A day like this... reminds me of ''that day''."

From the student council office, I watched the storm approaching Midgard from afar and murmured to myself.

Located in a tropical zone, Midgard was frequently attacked by typhoons. The schedules of transport ships would avoid them as much as possible, but weather was impossible to predict precisely.

However, procedures to apply for access through Midgardsormr were extremely strict and complicated. Rescheduling due to weather would require a vast amount of paperwork to obtain authorization again.

The "invisible bridge" of Bifrost, the safe route into Midgard, would change with each application. Hence, losses in time would also be incurred. Consequently, rescheduling was quite rare.

These were details that I learned half a year ago when I became student council president.

"—President Mitsuki! I have assembled the members of the Dragon Subjugation Squad and the student council as instructed!"

Entering the student council office while panting, a girl reported to me.

"Noted. In that case, the Dragon Subjugation Squad will be in charge of aiding the transport ship to reach port. Student council members will assist Midgard's staff to treat those who feel unwell. I will take command at the pier."

After issuing orders to her, I placed a communicator on my ear.

Let me make some sweets for everyone after the job is done.

Thinking that to myself, I left the office.



After passing through a wind barrier constructed by twenty people...

The transport ship arrived safely at port inside the storm.

I issued orders to others while boarding the ship in search of our new comrades who had arrived at Midgard today.

—She was supposed to be my age.

Recalling the photo and personal details from the profile I had read, I looked for her on the deck.

Next, she walked out from the cabin while supported by Mica-san.

"Mica-san!"

I called to the principal's secretary and ran over.

"—Ah, Mitsuki-san. May I trouble you to look after her? She is suffering severely from seasickness..."

"Urgh... I really wanna puke..."

Supported by Mica-san, the silver-haired girl was groaning with a pallid countenance.

"Are you alright? I shall call a stretch straight away to take you to the infirmary."

"...T-Thank you..."

She thanked me. This was the first time for her to look in my direction. Set in an exquisite face, her large and beautiful eyes looked like gemstones. Even from my perspective as a member of the same gender, I found her to be an extremely adorable girl.

"Who are you...?"

Her bloodless lips quivered to ask me.

After calling for a stretcher, I introduced myself to her.

"My name is Mononobe Mitsuki. I am the student council president and captain of the Dragon Subjugation Squad."

"U-Umm, I'm..."

The girl looked like she wanted to introduce herself too but stopped halfway. She was probably feeling unwell.

"No need to force yourself. You are Iris Freyja, aren't you? I already know your name because I have read your profile."

Iris-san nodded. Stumbling, she extended her hand.

"...Pleased to meet you, Mitsuki-chan."

"Yes, a pleasure to meet you too, Iris-san."

I shook hands with her and replied with a smile.

Although the circumstances were the same as Miyako's arrival, the impression she left me was completely different.

Compared to Miyako, who had excess capacity to care for others, Iris-san felt slightly unreliable.

However, I could feel some kind of strong will inside those eyes of hers, staring at me—
