p4
>Hmm...
>It feels like my swimsuit's gotten smaller.
>...Did it shrink...?

>!?...Don't tell me...
>I gained weight!?

p5
>Here
>Don't hold back
>Be sure to eat lots and lots.
>S-Sure...

>That, huh...

>To think this would happen to me...
>I'm ashamed to be a Karlsland soldier...!
>[If Hartmann finds out about this...]

>Trude
>Did you perhaps
>gain weight?


p6
>D-Don't be ridiculous!
>There's no way a Karlsland soldier would do something as disgraceful as gaining weight!
>Hey, don't touch me!
>Ah, it's true.
>Hm~~


>Liar
>Don't touch me!

>Geez, it's not like it's a big deal or anything.
>All units! A Neuroi has appeared!

p7
>Ueee~
>It had to come out during swim practise ><;
>Why can't the Neuroi take days off too...

>Wahaha!
>Us soldiers must always be ready to battle at a moment's notice!

>Well then
>Please take care of it, Trude.
>Looks like a single middle-class.
>Major Sakamoto brought your 190s just in case <3

p8
>As expected of the major. She never overlooks anything.
>[Hartmann can spectate...]
>Hartmann!
>You don't mind if I take this one, do you?
>Go ahead
>I'll let you have this one, Trude!
>Ahem

>Barkhorn, moving out!!

>If it's Barkhorn
>She should be able to take out a recon unit no problem.

p9
>Is that it?

>This is Barkhorn. I've spotted the Neuroi, Minna!
>Be careful, Trude!

>Now engaging the target!

p11
>Bullets aren't having any effect.
>This one's tough.
>However...

>It looks like this might be a bit too much for even Barkhorn.
>I'm a little worried.
>Yeah.
>Erika, you head back to the base and go to Tru-
>Don't worry about it, Minna.

>This is Trude we're talking about!!

>I can't let Hartmann
>bother herself with this
>I'm more than enough!!!

p14
>Ah!

>Barkhorn-san did it!

>Trude
>Good job.
>Ah, Minna
>Thank you.

>Looks like it wasn't a problem.

p15
>That's my Trude!
>Gya!

>But you sure took your time, didn't you, Trude?

>Did these heavy things make it harder to fly, I wonder~?

>That Neuroi was just sturdier than usual, that's all!
>It's definitely not because I got
>fat!!

>Huh!?

>That Barkhorn...
>did she just...
>[She gained weight, huh?]
>Trude...
>Hyahhoo~
>You fell for it!

p16
>I've misjudged you! Hartmann!
>To think I believed you for even a second!

>How foolish of me!!!!

>Trude is mad~
>I've done it now~
>Stop right there, Hartmann! [This time you'll pay!!!]
>Get back here!
>It's as they say, "a blade needs a scabbard".

>I guess so.
>If you always leave your blade exposed, it gets damaged in unexpected places.
>Look like Hartmann is a very important scabbard for Barkhorn.
>Fufu

p17
>Indeed.
>I hope it'll stay that way for a while.
>(Though maybe without the weight gain)
