Chapter 354 05.0353: "Gold and Purple Shura Field (Part )"
Facing Farida's sudden approach, Louise instinctively stepped back, but quickly stopped her retreat with her own will and stepped forward instead. Their chests collided unexpectedly and they bounced together, leaving a face-to-face distance of not too large or too small for them.
"Yes, I had almost forgotten that you were a midshipman, Midshipman Louise.
I have checked your academic performance. With all due respect, it may be difficult for you to pass the naval lieutenant examination given your level.
But after all, you and my dear have worked together, and since we are destined to be together, I will help you out of reluctance."
The distinguished blonde girl gave Louise an unexpectedly sweet smile, and she took out a new parchment scroll from her bosom and handed it to Louise.
"This is an appointment letter for a candidate officer at the Solar Segment Fleet Headquarters. The department head to which it belongs is a close friend of my father and uncle from 20 years ago. The authorization stamp can be stamped at the Holy Terra Navy Department.
Take the expedition fleet's communications express ship that will depart tomorrow morning, and then transit through the Abyss Port. You will be able to report to the designated department of the Solar Segment Fleet in as little as six Terra months.
With my Hood family as a guarantee, and relying on your past achievements, as long as you don't make big mistakes and accumulate experience for the next fifteen or sixteen years, you will definitely be able to become the captain of an escort ship and be promoted to the rank of military officer.
Perhaps by then, you will serve as the captain of a warship in the Solar Star Domain's expeditionary fleet and personally protect your beloved Cadia.
I believe that your former comrades and relatives will be proud of you when they see you return to Cadia as a higher-valued Imperial currency."
Through previous background checks, she knew that Louise had a dark history of failing to successfully fulfill the Kashezin oath.
Farida's smile was calm and sweet. She took the initiative to put the scroll of the Admiralty appointment book, which touched Louise's soft spot and symbolized a bright future and supreme glory, into her hands.
"I will write to you from time to time, little sister."
Farida spoke softly, watching Louise fall into silence, revealing a sinister smile that she had never shown in front of Horatio.
[Hehe, the bad girl Thei once gave some useful advice when we talked about this matter.]
As the 'self-proclaimed' mistress of the house, Farida has to maintain the composure and dignity of a legal wife when dealing with the little bitch who is entangled with the male master.
Under no circumstances should you resort to violence. Directly fighting is not only disrespectful, but is also likely to make your loved one dislike you.
After all, Horatio is of noble blood, and polygamy is a legal system of the empire. It is also his duty to mint coins for the emperor, so it is his freedom, right and obligation to find as many partners as he wants.
Therefore, when dealing with such messes, the ladies of Abyss Port often try to elegantly give these little hooves an offer that they cannot refuse, in order to demonstrate the unshakable legitimacy of their own status.
It was also to make these women retreat and leave as decently as possible, to make them give up in the face of difficulties and consciously give up the world of two people between her and Horatio.
It would be best if the other party could withdraw on their own, if not.
Then she could only grit her teeth and endure the existence of these competitors, find ways to compete with them, and continue to suppress them to consolidate her position in Horatio's heart and consolidate her position as the legal wife.
Farida knew exactly what she wanted.
Although the Imperial Aristocratic Law does not stipulate the identity of a legal wife, the public has subconsciously believed that there is only one legal wife.
What she had to do was to gain the position of his legal wife, so that these latecomers would not be able to endanger her position in Horatio's heart.
Louise stared at the golden band with the emblem of the Sun Fleet on the scroll for a long time without saying a word. She was indeed surprised by the "olive branch" thrown by Farida.
The Solar Segment Fleet is the dream destination of all Imperial Navy officers, the place of supreme glory for the Empire, and the cradle of the Navy. Simply being able to serve in it is a symbol of supreme honor.
It only takes fifteen or sixteen years for one to become the captain of a battleship, join the Solar Star Domain expeditionary fleet, and return to Cadia as one of the golden lights of the Divine Emperor's will.
A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier, and the value of a naval officer is far greater than that of a general of the Astra Militarum. For Louise, a standard soldier who equates her life journey with her military career, it is a fatal temptation.
For a moment, Louise imagined herself wearing the platinum uniform of the Sunlight Fleet, walking out of her own warship under a sky filled with military music and streamers, and accepting the warm cheers and golden olive branches from the people of Cardia.
Louise understood that this was a choice, she could only choose one between a bright future and the present where they could stay together.
But she was absolutely unwilling to leave Horatio. Thinking of this, Louise's hands began to tremble.
"No... How can the relationship between him and me be...!"
Faced with this golden olive branch that would be hard for any Imperial Navy candidate to refuse, Louise gasped, closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and stuffed the scroll back, then glared fiercely at Farida who was facing her with the relaxed attitude unique to a queen.
Seeing this answer, the blonde's face turned cold again, and her free left hand habitually stroked near the empty armed belt, and the atmosphere dropped by dozens of degrees again.
Horatio, who was hiding in the shadows nearby and eavesdropping, gasped when he saw this scene.
He just wanted to take advantage of Farida's absence to go out and meet Louise to exchange statements, so as to get through this hurdle tonight first, and then slowly bring his two lovers together.
Unexpectedly, by the time he found Louise, the Shura Field had already erupted. As the military supervisor, Farida's insight was much more astute than he had imagined.
The incident broke out so suddenly that it disrupted his original plan to bring the two together.
"Hiss!!!" He rubbed his chin, his brain spinning at high speed, wondering how to solve the problem.
It is obvious that these two strong female soldiers will not submit to each other, and it is unlikely that they will recognize each other's existence in a short period of time.
The only thing he could do was to delay this problem as much as possible, use time and opportunities to dilute the competition between the two, let them get used to each other's existence, and then find an opportunity to bring the two together.
[Okay, let’s do this, separate them first, and then find an opportunity to bring them together later.]
Just as the two women's eyes were charged with electricity and they were confronting each other, the atmosphere was gradually becoming solemn in the ominous silence.
Louise's eyes suddenly regained warmth, her tense body softened again, and the curves of her eyes and mouth became particularly gentle. Farida was stunned for a moment, then realized something, and quickly turned around, revealing a sweet and warm smile.
"Louise, Farida, what are you talking about?" Horatio strode over with a smile and asked loudly.
"My dear, it's nothing. I was just passing on the recommendation letter for the Navy Lieutenant Examination to Candidate Louise. I didn't expect that your colleague is such a wonderful person. We talked a lot."
Farida looked at Horatio and gave him a gentle and lovely smile, then looked at Louise with a "talking" look:
"Yes, my dear little sister Louise."
"Yes, it's nothing, you don't have to worry, Horatio. I get along very well with Inspector Hood."
Louise smiled, as if nothing had just happened between them.
Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming somewhat weird, Horatio immediately and accurately used his skills to control the situation.
“Really? I’m glad you guys can have a good chat. Louise has really helped me a lot in these past few months. She’s my close comrade-in-arms.
Farida, as one of the closest people to me, it is great that you can understand this.”
Horatio stepped forward, using his solid and secure body to separate the two women, and pretended to be unaware of the previous Shura scene.
"I am also very happy to have such a capable secretary to assist you and share your pressure."
Farida reached out without hesitation, and in front of Louise, she put her arms around his neck and rubbed her delicate face against his cheek affectionately.
"I'm just afraid that if you stay away from me for too long, the relationship between us will become distant. But I wasn't jealous just now. I'm from the Hood family..."
"How could the love between us fade away?" Horatio chuckled and stroked Farida's beautiful cheek to comfort her.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. It's quite cold at night. Let's go back to the RV and rest."
Farida, smiling, let go of her arm, took his hand, and made a gesture to leave, turning back to wave at Louise:
"Goodbye, Officer Candidate Louise, and I hope you have a good rest tonight~"
Louise said nothing, but looked at Horatio with her clear purple eyes. The cold wind made her nose and cheeks red.
!!!
Louise had always slept in the RV with Horatio before, and there was no rest tent for her in the camp. Where could she rest?
At this moment, Horatio felt as if time had stopped for a moment, and he couldn't help but have the idea of escaping. However, the position that separated the two beautiful ladies before now put him in a situation where he was attacked from both sides, making it impossible for him to escape.
"Farida, Louise, I came to see you for something serious.
There is a very important task tonight, and I am afraid it will take several days of all-night work to complete it."
Horatio immediately adopted the serious tone of Commander Ikari and said:
"The snow is about to melt, and the light infantry regiment in charge of our flank will inevitably face the difficult situation of being blocked in their march.
The 1st Brigade where we are is highly mechanized and is marching along the highway, so we are likely to face the dangerous situation of being disconnected from the front and rear.
In addition, the daily report sent to me by the Aviation Ministry today mentioned that there seemed to be some abnormal meteorite activities in outer space. Some people in the fleet suspected that this was a sign of alien activities.
In order to avoid unexpected situations, and also for our safety and future victory, I think it is necessary to work overtime these few nights to prepare the air force plan for the Aviation Reserve. As for the office location, I think the RV is a good choice, it is big enough and warm enough.
Ladies, I wonder if I have the honor to borrow your strength for a while."
Louise's purple eyes lit up, with a restrained smirk beneath her curved eyebrows.
She smiled and looked into Farida's green eyes with her bright purple eyes, as if to say to her, 'I won't sleep with him, and you can forget about it. At worst, we can all stop resting and work.'
"Hmph!" Farida bit her lip and let out a muffled groan.
In silent agreement, Louise and Farida stared at each other, holding Horatio's arms on the left and right, and walked towards the RV not far away.
The blonde held Horatio's hand tighter. The soft touch and refreshing fragrance of her arm flowed through his body like an electric current.
He almost gritted his teeth, using his extraordinary willpower to control a part of his body from standing up instantly, so as to avoid falling into an even more unfavorable situation at this inappropriate time, and to avoid becoming the fuse for a quarrel between Louise and Farida.
[Let’s bring them together first to work, and wait until they are used to each other before we talk about advancement.] He thought rationally.
In the darkness where no one was paying attention, a pair of clear and bright brown eyes looked at the three people who were in a stalemate like stone statues, and then they stuck together in a twisted posture and gradually walked away.
A figure walked out of the darkness, and the light shone on the dark and shiny skin like creamy chocolate. No wonder this person could blend perfectly into the night.
"Hmm~ The Shura field of little girls is really interesting, 'little captain'." The mature and sexy female pilot snorted and chuckled, stretched her arms lazily, yawned, and smacked her lips:
"Hmm, where should I sleep tonight? Forget it, I'll just make do with the driver's seat of the Skyhawk shuttle. It looks like the sortie missions will be more frequent in the next few days~"
