What a pitiful girl.

The eldest daughter of the Iris family has received too much criticism and denial...

"Like-like commander leads like-like ship girl." Lorraine finally reacted.

Are you that obvious?

He shook his head and said, "Forget it, let's focus on what's in front of us first."

Thinking of this, he smiled and said, "Well, how about we make a pact?"

"What...promise?" Republic sobbed.

"You can't give up until my wish comes true, okay?"

Republic was stunned. "A wish?"

Lorraine responded softly, "Yes, a wish."

Republic cried and threw herself into Lorraine's arms.

The latter used all his strength to catch the young lady.

It’s still too weak, Lorraine thought with some resentment.

But seeing Gongguo agreeing with tears in his eyes, he couldn't bear to have any spoiling thoughts.

He patted Republic's back gently, soothingly.

Until the eldest daughter of Iris was tired of crying, Lorraine gently picked her up.

"So light," he thought.

Gently put Republic on the bed and cover him with the quilt.

He looked around.

As plain as a burgundy room.

Then he looked at the girl in front of him again.

Thank you for the hard work and the suffering you endured for so long in that sea of ​​nothingness.

From now on, come with me. In our new life, those things will no longer happen.

I swear on the Commander's behalf.

Lorraine thought about it and left quietly.

Chapter 97 Chat

As Lorraine walked out of the Republic's room, he saw Burgundy leaning against the door frame of his room.

"Are you comforted?" Burgundy raised an eyebrow.

"I knew you could do it." She handed over a glass of water as if nothing had happened.

Lorraine took it and drank it in one gulp.

He was extremely worried just now. He had to think carefully before speaking, for fear that the Republic would fall apart.

Fortunately, the wall was not too thick, and he could faintly hear the cry of the Republic, so he arrived in time.

Burgundy crossed his arms, "How's it going?"

"Even though you say you dislike the newcomer for being too young, you actually care about him." Lorraine smiled while holding a water cup.

"Well, I can't stop the commander from making that decision." Burgundy curled his lips.

"At least she's stabilized. Her condition is much more serious than yours." Lorraine sighed.

Burgundy couldn't help but sigh. Every Iris ship girl has her own inner demons.

Especially those of them who were unable to land during the war due to various reasons.

The root cause is the feeling of helplessness and the fear of being abandoned.

But... now I don't have to worry about so much.

Burgundy thought that she only needed to protect one person. After all, the Theocracy had nothing to do with her since she killed that adult.

This is even more true for the Republic. She never owes the Theocracy anything. It would be better to say that the Theocracy owes her something.

"Anyway, as far as I know, the Theocracy still has no plans to restart the Republic level." Burgundy said lightly.

Lorraine had a headache because some things were hard to explain. He couldn't just say it was the republic in the shit in his previous life.

"Not only does the Theocracy owe her a debt," Burgundy shook his head, "but she's putting pressure on herself."

"You should go to bed early, or you won't be able to get up tomorrow." Burgundy snorted and looked at Lorraine. It was already 12 o'clock.

"Okay." Lorraine rubbed the cup for a while, then turned off the lights outside and returned to his room.

--------

The tears flowed endlessly, like a rain. Actually, I already knew it, but facing it was too scary.

So I turned my back to the moonlight and let my thoughts wander. It was as if this would prevent the holy moonlight from revealing my ugly appearance.

I wish I could go back to the beginning. But unfortunately, nothing can stay the same any longer. Thinking of this, tears flow like a continuous rain.

If she wiped away her tears, ah, she remembered -

Chute……

Towards the long night;

Sombrer…

Towards the abyss.

Disappeared in the surging waves, without a trace.

Tomber……

Into the long, dark night.

However, when she forced her eyes open, she could vaguely see blue-purple starlight shining through the sea, slightly illuminating her face.

It was already past nine o'clock when Republic woke up from bed.

It seems that her alarm was turned off.

Wait, it's nine o'clock?!

She suddenly threw back the quilt, and then she realized that today was a celebration.

"Well, I'm on vacation today." The eldest lady convinced herself with one sentence and lay back down.

Then sleep a little longer? There's no training mission today, and the commander doesn't seem to have anything else to do.

Hey, wait, last night, sir, didn't you...

Fragments of memories kept flashing back, eventually forming a clear memory.

"Ah," she said a little embarrassedly. The young lady grabbed the quilt to cover her slightly red face, and the last bit of sleepiness disappeared.

Forget it, the boss and the others are probably already up.

"Click~" The door was pushed open and a girl in black walked in.

The Republic was a little surprised, "Sister Burgundy?"

"Uh-huh." Miss Knight said, holding breakfast in her hands.

"That guy hasn't woken up yet." Miss Knight smiled, there was still plenty of time.

So Burgundy lay at the bedside of the Republic.

"How are you? Are you feeling better?" she asked, looking at the eldest lady of the Church.

If the Church restarted the Republic-class and Alsace-class shipbuilding plans at the same time, I would probably have to salute her and call her "Your Excellency" now.

Miss Knight smiled and shook her head.

Why think about these things?

Republic held the porridge and stirred it, "Sister Burgundy, do you think I am troublesome?"

"What's the trouble?" Burgundy blinked.

"There are some things I can obviously handle." Republic said weakly.

"For example?" Burgundy's expression remained unchanged, still smiling. She tilted her head and looked at the little hat.

It is decorated with a white ribbon with a pattern of red and blue interwoven on the ribbon.

The pattern is a cross and iris.

"Iris blossoms with pride," Miss Knight said without a word. "You seem to have experienced many battles, and finally left the battlefield with regret and fear."

"But it seems that these are not the things that hurt you the most, my dear sister." Burgundy supported his chin with one hand.

As expected of girls, they became sisters so quickly.

"I don't know." Republic lowered his head, still stirring the bowl of porridge in front of him a little uncomfortably.

"It's okay. Even so, you're still blooming bravely." Burgundy said lightly, "Well, you didn't embarrass us Iris. You're much better than those pampered young masters and young ladies."

Republic was stunned for a moment, then his lips curled up, "Thank you."

Burgundy glanced at the clock and said, "Ah, now that you're done, go wash up and put the dishes in the dishwasher. I'll go wake up that stupid commander."

"Okay~" Republic responded softly.

"Be good." Burgundy smiled contentedly, stood up and went to the room opposite.

A few minutes later, Gongxing finished washing up and saw Lao Luo sitting at the dining table with a decadent look on his face.

"Sir..." Republic said with some concern.

"It's okay." Lorraine waved his hand. "I stayed up late to review last night..." He yawned.

"Sir, you still need to review..." Republic lowered his head.

Burgundy glared at Lorraine, "It's okay, it's not the first or second time."

Lorraine drank her porridge slowly, enjoying the rare morning.

Teacher Jiang Feng hopes that he will join the Discipline Department to help. Lorraine, Burgundy, and the Republic are already celebrities on campus. After all, the students are future commanders, and they have already developed some of the military's habit of admiring the strong. Letting these two help will definitely be effective.

Lorraine naturally agreed happily. If she could earn credits by just taking a walk on campus every day, why not do it?

But after the celebration is over, things really start to get busy.

Lorraine had a headache. They were also asked to take an additional practical course to practice combating piracy, escorting and other missions.

After all, the commander will not do nothing but clean up the sea. If the port area wants to prosper, it must get some benefit from maritime trade.

There are also various strange tests, and there are winter camps during the holidays.

There are so many things to do, I’m sorry.

Lorraine looked around bored, then decided to watch Burgundy clear the table.

Then he looked into the kitchen and saw Republic throwing the bowls into the dishwasher one by one.

A beam of light shone in from the balcony, passing across the side of his face. It then illuminated Burgundy's left side. The Knight's black dress absorbed the light, its lines reflecting a dark golden glow, creating a mysterious effect. Finally, it illuminated the Republic's right side. The red dress on the right side of the eldest lady's dress, awakened by the daylight, burned redder than the sun.

"That's great." He laughed.

Chapter 98 Newly Appointed Member of the Discipline Department

If you have nothing to do in the afternoon, should you go out?

Lorraine thought about it and finally decided to stay at home.

The Republic’s new sighting, aiming and fire control systems haven’t been ready yet, and I’ve been running around for the past two days. What’s wrong with taking a break?

Ignoring the group's request for General Luo to lead the team, and then beating up European friends in other exchange programs, Lorraine just lay on the sofa with peace of mind.

The afternoon sun was so warm that it made Lorraine's corpse spots look much darker (bushi).

He picked up the tablet and started working on the design that he hadn't finished last night.

The Republic and Burgundy were also doing their own things. The former was still working hard to learn the neglected theoretical knowledge, while the latter was conducting basic swordsmanship training in the living room.

Lorraine was always afraid that Miss Knight would get upset and chop something up.
