Azur Lane Mobile Front.

"Only by appealing to her can we truly get our money back from back then."

After Clemenceau finished speaking, he stared intently at his sister.

She needs to get answers from Richelieu.

This will have an impact on many things in the future.

"Perhaps you are right."

"But you should know that the Sirens were also involved in this."

"Therefore, simply attributing everything to that one person is not objective."

Richelieu's answer surprised Clemenceau.

"Ah~ so that's what you were thinking?"

"Heh, it seems you're planning to let Ironblood go?"

"No, everything Ironblood does must come at a price."

"But Clemenceau."

As he spoke, Richelieu straightened up and brought his face close to Clemenceau's.

"We cannot vent all our hatred on Ironblood."

"Because that would allow the real enemies to escape the judgment they deserve."

Upon hearing this, Clemenceau nodded thoughtfully.

"I see, I understand what you mean."

"It seems that both you and that commander want more than I expected."

"Alright, let's put this matter aside for now."

As she spoke, Clemenceau's face once again revealed the smile that usually appeared when sisters were joking around.

"Now, let's talk about something lighter."

"Where has your relationship with that person progressed to?"

"Huh?!"

"No...how come you..."

Seeing the embarrassed expression on his older sister's face, Clemenceau's smile widened even more.

"Hmm? Why am I so gossipy, am I?"

Clemenceau seemed quite pleased to see Richelieu's shy and embarrassed expression.

She stood up, walked gracefully to Richelieu's side, and leaned down to whisper in her sister's ear.

"Just tell me!"

"this..."

Seeing that Richelieu was hesitant to speak, Clemenceau's eyes lit up and an idea came to him.

"Hmm, it seems I need to find a different way to get the answer."

"Hmm... let me guess, judging from your appearance, sister, you're still a while away from the final step, right?"

"..."

Clemenceau was met with silence.

However, this was not a problem for Clemenceau at all.

Sometimes, you don't even need the other person to actually say anything to get an answer.

She glanced at Richelieu's expression and immediately knew the answer.

"Oh dear~ it looks like I guessed right."

With that, Clemenceau sat back down in his seat.

"Well then, sister, now there's a problem."

"After the restoration of the motherland, the Holy See will surely be yours."

"So, what should that commander do?"

"Huh?"

Richelieu had never really thought about this problem.

Because in her initial plan, she actually intended to liberate her motherland and then run away.

After all, Clemenceau was actually more suited to lead a faction than she was.

"Hey, judging from your expression, you're not planning to pass this responsibility to me, are you?"

"Eh..."

"Well then, I'm sorry, but I'm afraid only you can take on this responsibility."

"However, sister."

"Whether it's out of concern for you or for the sake of Iris, I hope you can speed up your progress."

"I think you should remember that the commander was actually engaged to the flagship of the Sakura Empire."

"Once this marriage is finalized, what kind of position will you, and the Iris Kingdom you represent, occupy?"

Have you considered this?

"No, this too..."

Richelieu was somewhat bewildered.

She never expected that her personal issues would escalate to a matter of factionalism with just a few words from her younger sister.

"Clemenceau, isn't this... a little too much..."

"It's not an exaggeration, my sister."

“I’ve also investigated your commander.”

"It's no exaggeration to say that he was a biased person."

"His favoritism does have its limits. If you fall behind, it's possible that, incidentally, we Iris will also have to rank behind Sakura Empire."

"I'm not kidding~"

Chapter 628: Everything is moving

Clemenceau's words silenced Richelieu.

In her view, the feelings between herself and the commander should be untainted by any other factors.

However, their positions inevitably introduce some impurities into their relationship.

Richelieu was aware of this phenomenon of "love me, love my dog," and it was quite common.

"Let's talk about this later."

With a wry smile, Richelieu shook his head, banishing the thoughts that had just crossed his mind.

"We still have a lot to do, don't we?"

"Okay, you're right."

...

Meanwhile, just as Rob was about to look for Richelieu, another communication came knocking.

"Master, His Majesty is looking for you~"

When the head maid handed the communicator to Rob, it was clear that her expression was not good.

What did she say to you?

Robb keenly sensed that the young queen of the royal family might have said something to his head maid.

"It's nothing serious."

"They probably think I'm not on the royal side, which makes you, Master, more inclined to side with His Majesty."

Belfast didn't hide anything.

She knew very well that some things, once concealed, would cause even more serious consequences when they were revealed.

"Heh~ That's quite in line with His Majesty's style."

"However, I'm sorry to have troubled you."

As he spoke, Rob took the head maid's hand and patted it gently twice.

"Master, Belfast is certainly capable of this level of awareness. Please don't underestimate me~"

"Alright, don't keep His Majesty waiting. Just now, her tone wasn't very friendly."

...

As soon as the communication was connected, Queen Elizabeth's uniquely childlike voice filled the entire room.

"You damn human, did you do this on purpose?!"

"Your Majesty, please be more dignified."

"Even if you're going to hold me accountable, at least let me die knowing why, right?"

...

"Huhuhu~"

In the distant royal palace, in the Queen's chambers.

Queen Elizabeth was breathing heavily.

She had just tried to use the Belfast connection to gain more leverage in her conversation with Rob.

However, the attitude of the former head maid chilled Queen Elizabeth's heart.

"Human, why haven't you responded to the messages Hood sent you?"

"Your actions have violated the rules of Azur Lane."

"Furthermore, you clearly dispatched carrier-based aircraft to scout out the situation of our engagement with Ironblood, so why didn't you take any action?"

Rob leaned back casually in the chair.

He had expected the royal family to come looking for him.

After all, he had personally witnessed Hood being severely injured and going missing.

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

"We have indeed not received the information you sent."

"As you are aware, our communications are blocked when we are in combat."

"Ordinary communication methods simply cannot reach us."

"As for discovering the battle between your side and Ironblood, that's utter nonsense."

"Perhaps you are unaware, but we are currently at a critical stage in reclaiming the lost territory of the Iris Theocracy."

"It is simply impossible to send people to monitor other areas."

"Therefore, regarding what Your Majesty has mentioned, I can only say, I'm sorry, I don't know."

Although Queen Elizabeth was already mentally prepared for Robb's reply before the communication was even connected.

But when Rob said it out loud, she still felt her blood pressure spike.

"Very well, I'll pretend you don't know."

"Now, I formally request your assistance."

Are you going to refuse me this too?

"Indeed. Because our side will soon be engaged in battle with Ironblood."

"Your Majesty, is it realistic to allocate extra manpower to assist you at this time?"
