As Feodor left the mess hall, he was assaulted by good and bad luck at the same time.

The bad luck: it suddenly started raining at the exact moment he stepped outside. Very heavily. The good luck: as he ran through the torrential downpour, he saw a rest stop with a roof attached to it. Feodor rushed for the rest stop and the roof’s salvation.

Panting, he ducked inside it and found himself face to face with another person, similarly dripping wet and out of breath, who had arrived just before him.

After a while Lakish, now with his officer’s jacket draped over her shoulders, cleared her throat nervously. “…Um…”

“What?”

“I-I’m sorry. About your jacket, I mean. And, um, thank you very much.”

Feodor shook his head. “Don’t worry about it. I’m also responsible for keeping you all in good health.”

He shook water off his clothes and took off his glasses, quickly wiping raindrops off its lenses before putting them back on. Taking a look outside revealed gray skies that hid the sun, with rain continuing to pour down. Though the cold was tolerable enough, he didn’t feel like running back out and getting himself soaked again just yet.

“U-umm…” She was glancing repeatedly at him for some reason, grumbling and muttering to herself. “Stupid Tiat… going and saying all that nonsense… I’m completely aware of it now…”

“Your face’s a bit red,” Feodor offered.

Lakish jumped. “Ahhhh?!”

“You might’ve caught a cold. It could be a good idea to visit the medbay later.”

“O-oh! Yes, got it, I’ll d-do that!” she cried in a panic, curling up into a shivering ball and wiggling as far away from Feodor as possible. It reminded him vaguely of a baby rabbit. How cute.

Even Feodor was still a guy. Although there was a great deal of things to keep in mind where these girls were concerned, it didn’t keep his heart from racing just a bit faster in these kinds of situations where he was alone with one of them.

But she’s markless. With just that one fact, he felt that the distance between them might as well be an impassable canyon. He’d have to put aside any passion he might feel.

“Um…”

“Hmm?”

“This might be sudden, but do you… you know… hate markless?”

Wait, did she read my mind?! Instantly, Feodor was on his guard. He didn’t consider it an overreaction to take such an idea seriously. He knew all too well that there were some underhanded races in this world who were more than capable of doing just that.

“I know it’s strange to ask, because you’re also markless, but… if you do, is there any reason why?”

“…Not especially.” Feodor took a breath, calming himself. “It seems natural to me. Ever since I was born, there’s never been any decent characters among the markless I’ve known. No matter where I go, I only meet the twisted sorts.”

His own family members already fit the definition of strange, but that wasn’t where it ended. Even the markless Feodor formed relationships with as friends or acquaintances due to their similar races tended to be very much abnormal in varied ways.
