After meeting with god, I wake up back to the campground in the Humvee to a crying desperately Emily

“You’re alive… You’re alive…Wahhhhh” With tearful smiles, she lunges at me, almost pushing me down with her weight, grabbing my shirt and cry into it.3

This girl seems to be a handful, she cries at times of pain and of joy. How this delicate flower can even make it to the ranks of a knight remains a mystery to me. And even so, how did she even get the permission to attend knighthood. How she embraces me and uses my shirt as a tissue to wipe her tears from crying hysterically honestly it’s somewhat cute.

Holding her tightly I then try to comfort her: “Alright...yosh…yosh…I’m here...stop crying.”

“I…I…” She stutters in her tears.

“Let’s have some dinner shall we?” I suggest having dinner.

“Shoot! I forgot to catch some food to cook.”

“It’s alright, I’ll treat you today.”

I open the footlocker and if my military knowledge is true, some of the military rations should be concealed in the foam casing of the trunk. And so I was right! Two packs of MREs were hidden under the casing, some soldiers might have gotten too selfish and jacked 2 extra packs of MREs. I then heat them up using the instructional manual.

First, open up the heating bags, put the entrees, main course and what needed to be heated into the heating bag. Second, we’ll need to prepare the drinks, but the problem is that Emily’s leather cantine might leak through. I search for a few of those metal canteens holders that soldiers would use to heat up their food. After a while, I found one with a brand new canteen. Now, these I can use, I pour out the juice beverages powder, pour in the hot water we have been boiling and pass the hot beverage to Emily.

“This is?” Emily asks.

“It’s a beverage that soldiers get when they are issued with these food packs. Try it out!” I offer her the drink.

She receives the drink with two hands and slowly blowing the steam coming from the drink: “*slurps* Uhwa! This is great! This tastes even better than any juices that I have ever drink. Mitsuha-san, are soldiers in your homeland nobles? Since these beverages seem to only fit for a noble.”

From my knowledge, military MREs have been a trend to eat by civilian military nuts lately, so I give my answer: “Not really. These are pretty much available to the common mass.”

“Your homeland sounds amazing!”

However, the world I was in was somewhat more troubling than amazing. With the fanatic terrorist kidnapping people in the Middle East, many disputes over disbanding the UN and many places just recovered from the chemical weapons

“Well not that much…” I say with a sarcastic sigh.

After a few minutes, our food was finally ready to be eaten. I use the combat knife to make a cut to help to open the bags easier. I then open the food bag to reveal a deliciously hearty meal.

Meat Stew with beans and black bread sides, the main course of USMC menu D5, is consist of pork, white beans, onions and tomatoes. The pork is braised for 3 hours in a mixture of tomato sauce and baked white beans. The Black bread side is made from rye flour, dried raisin and red yeast.

“Fuwahahhh…” she swoons in excitement as the flavorful steam rise up filling our nostrils with extreme ecstasy.

Taking our first bite, we then both are astonished by the flavours of the reheated stew in the bags.

“UMAIII! This is so good!” She swoons again, this time is about the wonderful taste that she has with the MRE rather than salted pork or corned beef.

“Tell me more about yourself Mitsuha-san. You seem to not be from the land of Emestria, your attire differs from those in both Xinji and Shoujin. Yet your name bears a resemblance to the syllables that those two countries’ citizens would use.” She asks me.

“Well, you’re right to know that I’m not from Emestria. However, I’m not going to tell you where I’m from just yet. For that, you’ll have to guess” I say with a wink. Playing a mysterious suave mercenary is gonna fun, so I decided to tease her about my originality.

“Ehh? Tell me! Pwease….” She tries to use her charms on me, it didn’t work though. Maybe not how she wanted though since it somewhat almost make my heart skipped a beat. Things don’t escalate further than this since, after a full meal, she falls asleep on my lap like a cat.

And I feel somewhat more
