My apologies, I had thought you a regular companion of Kainé's. You are quite right. I had only meant it while I was away, as the magic of this place keeps me from accompanying her at all times. Discipline takes diligence and constant reinforcement.

Thank fuck I'll get a goddamn break from this shit...

[Kainé smirks at Satoko's reply it seemed the other girl had taken her side. She shouldered one of her swords and took a defiant stance.]

Hear that? She said, piss off, book.

[Satoko could also thank Grandma for Kainé's attitude. She had sworn like a sailor as well. However, Kainé's insults seemed to be directed more at the book and not at Satoko at all.

This time, the tsukumogami seemed to ignore Kainé's dismissal as it went on about its plans to shape Kainé into a proper woman.]

Another thing we shall address in due time, is your lack of clothing. A lady should cover herself and display proper modesty.

[It wasn't the first time she had heard that either. Well, Weiss only voiced his displeasure. This book was trying to actually mold her!]

Yeah, good luck with that. I do things my way.

[She turned back to Satoko and tilted her head.]

How 'bout we get to the part where we fight?

Kainé! Remember it is only a training match!
