"Get in formation, everyone!" Ana declared, stepping forward as her body began to glow in order to activate her Gift [Armament].

'Oh shit! I nearly forgot that I told her the whole story about my entire comrades being killed by Demons. She must think I have a trauma or something.' My head suddenly rang.

I had to act the part!

"Y-yes. Thank you…" I smiled nervously, stepping back.
