Chapter 229: [Lolita & Panzer]
Extra chapter thanks to Kodenir
[Panzer Four!]
Tanks, advance.
In the video, "Translation Girl Iroha" leaned out of the hatch, and pointed forward with a determined look.
The tanks roared into action with that rallying cry.
Immediately after, I lost my balance and tumbled inside the vehicle.
[Iroha!?]
[Iroha-chan~!?]
With a clunk, my head banged against the interior as I collapsed.
Phew, wearing a helmet was a good idea. Maybe I should thank cosplay for the first time?
[Ugh. Why me? Why am I the only one!?
[That's my line! What's wrong with your core stability!?]
Is it possible for someone to be so ill-suited for this, even with a pistol?!
Even the instructor gave me a scolding, <<You again!?>>.
<<Because it's dangerous, close the hatch and sit quietly inside! You can still see outside from the sight there.>>
<<Y-yes>>
I reluctantly sat down in the commander's seat.
Once again, the tank started moving.
Incredible vibrations and noise.
It felt like you could hear a marching band or something.
[Oryaaaah! Move, move, move~!]
Ah-nee was shouting from the driver's seat.
Right now, she's the one driving this tank.
[Ah-nee, please drive safely, okay!?]
[Leave it to me, Captain Iroha~!]
[C-Captain!]
>Captain Iroha!
>Commander Iroha!!
>Commander Iroha!!!
>Sir Iroha Sir!!!!
Hah, hah I also want orders from Iroha-chan!
>I'd love to undergo ridiculously tough training while being scolded
>Well, Iroha-chan would probably be the first one to get exhausted though
"Don't go adding names for me on your own!? And what's with these weird people popping up!?"
"By the way, for those who want to draw fan art, the one Iroha-chan was wearing was Ah-nee~"
All the detailed preparations were handled by that person
[Alright, ready for firing!]
It felt like the surroundings had quieted down a bit.
Tension hung in the air.
The barrel of the cannon was aimed into the distance.
It was just an empty sandy terrain, but that was the setup.
[Hehehe I've been looking forward to this moment.]
Angu Ogu laughed confidently.
For the finer details, the instructor took care of everything, so all she had to do was press the fire button. But for this moment, she chose to be the gunner.
This time, there was a clear split in opinions on who wanted to be the driver or gunner.
By the way, I didn't like either, so I opted to be the commander. I thought it was the safest.
[Alright then fire away!]
[Firing one!]
With a resounding vibration through the air, the projectile got launched.
As if exploding on the distant ground, dust billowed up.
-Boom!
The vibration transmitted through the seat was a sensation akin to fireworks beneath the belly. Yet, it was a distinct and different feeling.
"Ahh~. Even remembering it now, it was amazing. Seriously, it felt so exhilarating!"
Angu Ogu exclaimed in excitement while watching the video.
After the shot, white smoke rose from the barrel.
"So, that's how the first shooting experience went."
>Shooting ranges are kind of intimidating
>But it looked like so much fun. I might give it a try
>It's quite pricey, but I'd like to experience it at least once
After finishing playing all the videos, there was a pause.
Just as they were about to wrap up the livestream,
Ah-nee exclaimed.
"Oh, right, Iroha-chan! Everything is set up, so we should promote that thing too!"
"Huh, are you really going to do it?"
"Of course!"
>What is it, what is it?
>Oh, is it that thing where they were collecting ideas from the viewers?
>I'm really looking forward to it.
"Entitled Iroha-chan's First-Ever Learning'!"
Ah-nee proudly announced the livestream title with a triumphant expression.
