After preventing the world from being destroyed, the ship girls started acting strangely.

"Well, Royal Fortune... she won't be able to get up for a while. She should rest well today, so please don't disturb her for now."

It has to be said that You Ran had a great time this time.

Although he ultimately had to take the lead himself, it's undeniable that the tentacles were quite convenient, allowing him to pose Royal Fortune in various ways while also subtly immersing himself in the storyline. Unfortunately, Royal Fortune became somewhat delirious in the end and wasn't quite capable of role-playing; otherwise, a little cooperation would have made it even more engaging.

"I understand, I'll go and inform everyone right away."

Nodding, after receiving You Ran's instruction, Charybdis thought for a moment and didn't rush back. Instead, he took his phone out of his pocket...

Hong Kong Main Group

Charybdis: "@All members, next week is the Royal Maid Experience Week. Does anyone want to sign up today? This Maid Experience Week is different from the usual ones~ There will be a surprise if you sign up today."

Lützow: "A surprise? What surprise? It can't be that the commander is coming, can it?"

Blücher: "You're overthinking it. If the commander could come, I'd sign up in a heartbeat, but that's simply impossible."

Charybdis: "@Lützov, you guessed it! That's right, the Commander will indeed be coming this time. There are limited spots available, so it's first come, first served."

Blücher: "Huh? Really?! Charybdis, you're not kidding me, are you?!"

San Francisco: "I have a bad feeling about this. The Commander doesn't have time to come here. This is obviously fake news. It's always the same, just to get us to work for free at the Royal Navy."

Saratoga: "I can only say that I'll laugh at whoever goes for the rest of her life. I signed up once before, and I was exhausted from cleaning every day, but I never saw the commander come once. Anyway, you'll know once you try. When you go, no one will say a word, and Gloucester is as fierce as a ghost."

Charybdis: “…”

Charybdis: "But this time the commander really will come."

Saratoga: "I don't believe it! I've been fooled once before, and I'm definitely not going to fall for it again!"

.........

On the other side, the royal palace.

Looking at the messages constantly being sent in the group on her phone, Newcastle quickly read them again and was slightly surprised. She knew Charybdis's personality quite well; she usually wouldn't, and had no need to, engage in false propaganda. In addition, considering the messages she had recently seen in the maid group, Newcastle was fairly certain that Charybdis had indeed persuaded the Commander to come.

Thinking of this, Newcastle looked at Queen Elizabeth, who was sitting in her seat with her chin resting on her hand, lost in thought, and an idea suddenly came to mind.

“Your Majesty, you’ve been sitting here in a daze all morning. Is something on your mind?” Newcastle asked softly, afraid of startling Queen Elizabeth.

"A whole morning?!" Elizabeth exclaimed in surprise as she snapped out of her daze. "Newcastle, you're exaggerating a bit! I admit I was a little distracted just now, but a whole morning is just too much."

"No, Your Majesty. To be precise, ever since you received some information about the Commander last time, you've been mostly lost in thought this week. I've rarely seen you not in a daze. Are you thinking about the Commander, Your Majesty?"

Knowing her own Majesty's temperament, she knew that if she tried to be tactful, things would get complicated, so Newcastle spoke very bluntly.

Hearing Newcastle's words, Elizabeth's face flushed red, clearly flustered at having her thoughts exposed: "Who...who thinks about that guy! Newcastle, don't talk nonsense! How could I possibly think about that rigid, stupid servant? I...I was just thinking about the long-term development of the royal family!"

Chapter 165 Silly White

Seeing Elizabeth's stubbornness, Newcastle couldn't help but chuckle softly: "Oh, I see. I was going to tell Your Majesty some important news about the Commander, but it seems you don't care. Well then, never mind."

With that, Newcastle stepped back and stood behind Elizabeth once more.

"News about a servant?!" Upon hearing Newcastle's words, Elizabeth was also anxious and quickly turned to look at Newcastle: "So what exactly is it about a servant... uh, cough cough, well... I'm not really concerned about this matter, but he is, after all, my servant. As the Queen of the Royal Family, it's only natural for me to care about my servants. Newcastle, just tell me quickly. I'm just listening casually, just to pass the time."

"Here's the thing, I just received a message in the maid group saying that the Commander will be coming to the Royal Family this afternoon to experience the Royal Family's traditional culture, which is the maid experience week we're planning to start next week."

Seeing that his master was extremely anxious, Newcastle didn't hold back and spoke directly.

"A servant is coming to the Royal Family?!" A hint of excitement flashed across Queen Elizabeth's face, but it quickly faded. "But what does that have to do with me? That stupid servant won't come looking for me on his own."

“The commander won’t come looking for you, but you can go to him on your own,” Newcastle suggested.

"You want me to go find him?! This, how is this possible! I am the Queen of the Royal Family. It's one thing if he doesn't come to me, but what kind of nonsense is it to ask a servant to go to him?"

Although Elizabeth was very tempted, she didn't say a word about it.

Knowing that his queen would hardly take the initiative without a suitable reason, Newcastle thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, you could actually use the excuse of signing up for this maid experience week to see the commander. That way, you can also spend some time with the commander. Why not?"

Elizabeth was stunned: "I'm going to...go to be a maid for a servant?! That would make that guy my master! No, no, that would be chaos."

“It’s only a short period of time, and you’ve already accumulated a lot of official business. Although it’s not a big deal, if you keep spacing out like that every day, the documents will only keep piling up,” Newcastle continued to advise.

"No, Newcastle, don't even mention it. Anyway... I just can't accept it."

Seeing Queen Elizabeth hesitate, Newcastle knew it was almost time, so he pressed on, saying, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Your Majesty, are you sure you don't want to go?"

“No!” Elizabeth refused firmly.

She couldn't afford to lose face, no matter what. If she became that servant's maid today, how could she ever call herself queen in front of him again?

Newcastle sighed regretfully: "Well, that's a pity. This precious opportunity will have to be given to other ship girls. The group chat went wild as soon as they heard the news that the commander was coming. Everyone is signing up, but there are limited spots, and they will probably be snapped up soon."

"That's all they're good for, fighting over such a small spot." Despite her continued saying that, Elizabeth was already getting restless. "But... well,"

“There are only three spots left,” Newcastle suddenly said.

"So fast?!"

Elizabeth had expected it to be quick, but not this quick.

"Yes, and I heard that Charybdis is currently with the commander. Once this list is finalized, it will be handed over directly to the commander, with absolutely no chance of being changed or cut in line."

Newcastle added another sentence.

"What?! How could this be?!"

Elizabeth is now really getting anxious.

"Hey! I didn't expect Warspite to sign up too. There are only three spots left."

"Even Warspite...!"

"There are only two left."

"Hmph, even so, I..."

"There's only one left."

"Wait, wait a minute! Um, you, oh dear~! Anyway, Newcastle is fast, so you should register me first! Warspite is so stupid, if she goes alone, her servants will definitely scold her. I, I can't let Warspite be bullied."

Elizabeth finally couldn't hold back and hurriedly shouted at Newcastle.

Seeing that his plan had succeeded, Newcastle couldn't help but smile: "What did Your Majesty say?"

"I said register, register! Hurry! Newcastle, stop dawdling! The spots will be snapped up soon!"

"But Your Majesty, didn't you just say it was impossible to go?" Newcastle asked, feigning ignorance.

"That was just now, and now it's now! Anyway, Newcastle, hurry up and register me!" Elizabeth was almost in tears.

"Alright, alright, Your Majesty, don't worry. I actually registered you as soon as I came in, so you don't need to worry about not having a spot."

Looking at His Majesty, who was stubborn but surprisingly sensible, Newcastle wanted to laugh, but couldn't help but drift off into thought.

Sigh, if only the Commander could be as easy to understand as His Majesty someday.

Newcastle sighed inwardly as he recalled that piece of wood.

"You've already registered?!" Elizabeth was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good... But Newcastle, don't think that I signed up because I wanted servants. I just wanted to accompany War-weary and experience our royal traditions. Please don't overthink it."

"Yes, Your Majesty, please rest assured, I understand."

Seeing that he had finally persuaded his master, Newcastle breathed a sigh of relief, took out his phone again, and logged into the group chat once more.

At this moment, the group chat was already buzzing with excitement, but as she expected, perhaps because the previous maid experience weeks had exhausted everyone's patience, although messages kept coming in one after another, no ship girls went to Karybdis to sign up.

While it wouldn't be difficult for His Majesty to add an extra spot to his own event, it would be better to do so legitimately. Therefore, Newcastle quickly began the editing process.

Newcastle: "@Charybdis, His Majesty would like to sign up for the maid experience week next week."

Saratoga: "?"

Warspite: "?"

Karybdis: "?"

Chapter 166 I'll sign up for my Weiwei too

Charybdis: "Huh? Newcastle, is this for real? Why does Her Majesty suddenly want to participate in this?"

Newcastle: "I guess I haven't had much official business lately, so I thought I'd try out a different kind of life. I'm not kidding. His Majesty is right next to me right now. I've already confirmed it. Just remember that, Charybdis."

Charybdis: "I see, I understand now."

Warspite: "Your Majesty... why did Your Majesty suddenly have this idea... if it's true, then I'll sign up too."

Charybdis: "Okay, then add Warspite, and we'll have two spots left. Are there any other ship girls who want to sign up?"

Marco Polo: "This...something's fishy. Is the Commander really coming?"

Lützow: "In that case, I'll sign up for our Bismarck first."

Binjiang: "? You mean it's like that? Then I'll sign up for our Yixian."

Littorio: "Okay, okay, so that's how you play, right? Then I'll sign up Vivi for me too."

Bumblebee: "And also, I'll sign up my company too!"

Charybdis: "No, no, you did this without my consent at all. It doesn't count. I need your consent."

Littorio: "That's easy, @Veneto, come and sign up."

Veneto: "......"

Veneto: "What is it that you want me to sign up for?"

Littorio: "Oh dear, time is of the essence, so don't worry about it for now. This is a great opportunity to get in touch with the Commander, so don't miss it. Even the Queen of the Royal Family has signed up, and there are only two spots left. Hurry up and sign up."

Veneto: "Even the Queen of the Royal Family has signed up? But..."

Littorio: "Don't hesitate any longer. How about this, I'll sign up with you, okay?"

(Anyway, if the commander comes, it's a huge win; if the commander doesn't come, at least there's company, so it's not a loss.)
