Summary[]
During the Loki Familia's expedition, the night before they were to reach the 59th Floor of the dungeon, they stopped to camp out on the 50th Floor. At night, Tione snuck around the guards, forcing Lefiya to accompany her, in order to sneak into the headquarters tent in which Finn was sleeping in.
Unable to stop the her rising surge of blood at the thought of exploring the deep floors the next day, Tione decided to sneak into the bedroom of her loved one. Lefiya, who was supposed to sleep in the same tent as her, was lamenting why she had to follow along. As she followed the Amazoness who was uttering an eerie laugh, Tione imagined a future in which the captain was being used as a body pillow, at last ending up at their destination. Ignoring Lefiya's pleas to reconsider, Tione quickly entered the dark tent.
However, once they entered what awaited them wasn't a sleeping Pallum, but rather a High Elf that looked at them with a freezing gaze. Tione asked Riveria where Finn was, with her responding that his thumb ached so he moved to a different tent. Riveria's anger fell down upon an upset Tione and a crying Lefiya. With Tione's cry, both girls were forced back to their tent and then forced to sleep.
Meanwhile, Finn had moved to the Hephaestus Familia tent after sensing danger. Gathering the gazes of the male and female smiths, he requested permission to stay for the night from Tsubaki with an expression that looked like he was holding back a sigh. Tsubaki replied that as payment she will have him be her body pillow.
