"Phew~~"
With Ichiro's guidance, Keion eventually completed the treatment successfully, though it took a while. As she watched Tenshin Ichiro resting on the bed, she let out a long sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Ichiro."
Ichiro smiled and handed her a handkerchief to wipe off her sweat. "It's nothing. But you finished so quickly. You've improved a lot lately, Keion. This was organ repair, after all."

A bead of cold sweat slowly slid down Ichiro's forehead. I'm done for. She's angry!
"Captain, I was wrong! I shouldn't have forgotten to come for training! I'm very sorry!"
"Sorry? Why
