My ship girl setup is off...

Page 40

No, that shouldn't be the case. I can't think like that. I can't possibly say that the Commander practically swore an oath to me back in the Eastern Empire...

Binjiang shook his head, trying to shake off the strange thoughts in his mind. After all, this was too outrageous. The Commander was having IPA with the other premarital examiners from Donghuang, while he was sleeping soundly in the bedroom. Was that reasonable? It was very unreasonable!

But what happened next made Binjiang feel that this idea could be confirmed, because Ninghai, Haitian, Haiqi, and Zhenhai came out of Pinghai's dormitory, and without exception, they were all wearing rings on their hands, which made Binjiang start to panic.

Am I mistaken? This is the only chance I'll ever have.

"Oh? Binjiang, good afternoon. What kind of look is that?"

After greeting Binjiang, Zhenhai noticed something was off about her gaze. Then, following her gaze, he saw the Oath Ring on his right hand and gradually understood the reason.

"Zhenhai...did I miss something?"

Binjiang saw the rings on Zhenhai and the others' hands, and her originally sunny and cheerful mood instantly turned sour. The commander was the only one who didn't make an oath with her. What was going on?

"Binjiang, you're overthinking it. Although Pinghai and Ninghai became your husband's wives later, we only spent one wonderful night with him, so don't overthink it."

Yixian's explanation completely broke Binjiang's defenses. What? Everyone else is already starting IMPA, and he's still sleeping soundly? This is unacceptable!

"Is this really a renovation or an expansion? Why are there so many things I've never seen before along the way?"

Zheng Ri followed the route to the dining hall and sat down. Although it was past the restaurant's opening time, there were still two or three ship girls idly waiting for their food.

At the same time, thinking about what I had just seen, such as the incredibly grand-looking palace and the towering cathedral, I even wondered if I had gone to the wrong place...

"Huh? Commander, what are you doing here?"

While Zheng Ri was sitting and waiting for Da Feng Feng, a rather tall figure came up to him, his purplish-gray eyes filled with unexpected joy.

"Oh, you're Noshiro, right? I've been waiting for Taihou."

When Noshiro heard Masahi call her name, a slight smile appeared on her face, but when she heard Taihou's name, the smile vanished instantly.

"Then, Commander, may I sit next to you and wait with you?"

"Row"

As soon as Masahiro finished speaking, Noshiro sat down next to him and took his arm.

Chapter 125 Hesitation

"Noshiro... so you've taken the initiative now?"

Feeling his arm being taken, Masahi looked at Noshiro, who was looking down, and asked curiously, while feeling a little happy. After all, he had read Noshiro's file. This ship girl was quite rational, the kind who wouldn't have much of a chance if he didn't take the initiative.

"Hmm... Agano-neechan told me that my personality isn't very good, and that the Commander won't come looking for me if I don't take the initiative..."

Noshiro blushed as she spoke to Masahiro, knowing that if she didn't come to the Commander, with so many ship girls to take care of, when would it be her turn? So she had no choice but to take the initiative.

"No way! You actually have a great personality and you wouldn't intentionally cause trouble for others."

Zheng Ri pondered what he had seen in the file.

The characteristics of the generation of ship girls are that most of them have this kind of personality. The beauties with long black hair are generally the type with a cold personality. It can only be said that if there is no topic, it is impossible to start a conversation.

"Is that really what the Commander thinks? I knew Agano-neechan was worrying too much. She said that if I don't change, I won't be able to communicate properly with the Commander. Plus, she likes to tease and joke with me all the time, she's really irreverent."

Hearing the commander say that, Noshiro immediately raised her head. After all, she was a little shy about the commander praising her. At the same time, she began to talk about her sister's daily life.

This way, while Masahiro waits for Taihou, he can hear what interesting things his ship girls talk about when he's not around.

"Actually, it's alright overall. After all, you, Agano, have such a kind and interesting older sister. As for myself, it's not so good. I'm all alone now, and there are some things I can't tell them."

Listening to Noshiro's rambling, Masahi thought about the past and the present. There was nothing to say about the past. Now he lived a daily life of being fed and watered, although he was quite happy with it.

But there's a sense of emptiness, like a dream, unreal. I'm afraid that one day I'll wake up and find myself lying in a hospital bed staring at the ceiling, reflecting on this moment.

"Commander, is there something you're having trouble telling me? If you'd like, you can tell me. I won't tell anyone about your affairs."

Seeing Masahiro's complicated expression, Noshiro moved closer to him, pressing her body even closer to the Commander, feeling a strong urge to hold him in her arms and comfort him.

Noshiro immediately realized her bad intentions and stopped what she was doing, secretly taking a step back. But thinking that this wouldn't allow her to get any closer to the Commander, she moved back.

Noshiro, what are you doing?

Masahi watched as Noshiro first took a step back, then moved back for some reason. Was her butt itchy or something?

"Ah! No, Commander, I'm just feeling a little unwell, but it's nothing."

After thinking it over, Noshiro decided to take things a step further with the commander and immediately started pursuing him. If not now, when?

"It's alright. If you're feeling unwell, go see a doctor... no, I mean, go see Akashi. After all, you're all ship girls, so if you're not feeling well, it's a serious matter."

"Commander, you're really alright! Let's talk about you now. I want to know... more about you..."

In the end, Noshiro still looked at him with her head slightly lowered, maintaining that sense of shame in her heart. Masahi also understood that Noshiro was shy, and that her personality was a bit off.

"My own affairs? I just feel that the ship girls around me are all very kind to me, and I don't doubt their kindness. It's just that I've been in contact with them so much that I can't think about my own affairs or the future on my own."

"After all, I am your commander. Is it really a good idea to leave all the affairs of the port to you?"

Masahi pulled his hand away from Noshiro's grasp, carefully examining her as he explained, "After all, I'm not stupid. I can tell that my ship girl doesn't want me to get involved in so many things."

However, being constantly called "Commander" by them, I always feel uneasy or unrealistic if I don't do something about it.

"Commander, I think you're overthinking it. From the moment you created us ship girls, we have always fought for you. We will not be bound by human conventions, nor will we be restricted by nations."

After understanding the commander's words, Noshiro became serious, frowning as she explained to him, trying to give him a boost of confidence.

"Leave the port matters to us. To put it bluntly, despite your best efforts, humans still can't compare to ship girls in many ways. So why don't you entrust everything to us? We will fulfill all your expectations."

"As for your desire for private time, I will discuss your request with them. As for the future, we will continue on this path together, until..."

After saying that, Noshiro closed her mouth. She didn't say "until the end of his life," because that was something that no ship girl could rationally accept, and neither could she.

"Well, let's focus on the present for now. Who knows what the future holds? Thank you, Noshiro."

Understanding what she wanted to say, Zheng Ri reached out and gently stroked her smooth, waist-length black hair. Seeing her slightly shy expression, Zheng Ri laughed. What was she thinking? Why not go to the dock and get some fries?

"Um... Commander, you're welcome. By the way, do you have some time these next few days? If possible... could you come to my house? Agano-neechan said she wants to see you."

Noshiro lowered her head slightly, her heart racing as she pondered her next move. Inviting the Commander to her house was too rash, wasn't it? Would the Commander think she liked effeminate girls?

"Hmm, so that's what Noshiro was planning from the beginning. Was that what you were thinking from the start? And when Agano said he wanted to see me, it was actually you who wanted to see me, wasn't it?"

Seeing Noshiro's reaction, Masahi suddenly found it interesting.

Teasing serious ship girls is awesome!

"I! I didn't! I didn't think that..."

"Commander!! Taihou has been searching so hard for you~ Commander, you should give Taihou a reward~"

Before Noshiro could finish speaking, she saw Taihou suddenly appear and sit face-to-face on the Commander's lap, looking charming and alluring.

Noshiro's expression disappeared.

Chapter 126 The Dragon King's Crooked Mouth

"Oh, it's my Dafeng! I've been waiting for you for so long, Dafeng! Where have you been? I've been waiting for you in the cafeteria for ages!"

Zheng Ri held Da Feng's delicate body, looking at her breasts, which were bigger than his own head, and the skirt that was so short it barely covered her buttocks. He then looked at her fair and delicate face and her beauty, and gave her a thumbs up in his heart.

Taifeng, you, big big yoshi, modo modo!

"Commander~ It's all Taihou's fault. Because Taihou was preparing a little surprise for you, she wasted your precious time. Please punish Taihou properly, Commander~"

Taihou pressed her waist together, making her stern press even closer to Masahiro's thighs, then held his head in her hands, her pretty face so close to their noses that they were less than a centimeter apart. Her wine-red eyes were filled with him, and she was so completely smitten that her eyes were practically glowing with hearts.

"Since Taifeng has said so, then let's consider it Taifeng's fault. I will definitely punish Taifeng severely later."

Zheng Ri's hands slowly slid to the stern of Taihou, preparing to give it a hard slap and feel the tender, sighing sphere.

However, he suddenly remembered that Noshiro was watching him, so he stopped his mischievous hands, after all, he still needed to maintain a proper image in front of Noshiro.

Although Zheng Ri was unaware that her image in the ship girls' chat group had long been transformed into someone who only wanted to be lewd all day long, and even her private information had been posted by the ship girls herself, such as the Commander's Strategy Manual.

"Hmm? Commander, why aren't you punishing Taihou severely? Oh~ so Commander was chatting with the little fairy in private~ no wonder Commander didn't punish Taihou severely."

Taihou was curious as to why her commander had suddenly stopped. Then, following his gaze, she saw that it was Noshiro watching from the side. And remembering how the commander had been chatting with her just now, Taihou started talking a little bit like she was stealing food.

"I...I didn't! I was just talking to the commander about some ordinary things."

Hearing Taihou's slander, Noshiro frowned. She had only just seen the Commander and wanted to chat with him before inviting him to her room. How did it turn out like this?

And...does the Commander like that type?

Noshiro looked at Taihou being hugged by Masahi and thought to herself, "At most, I can only hold hands with the Commander or something, but Taihou can just sit on top of me. Or is it that she would be more pleasing to the Commander if she did that?"

"Is there anything you need to tell the Commander? The Commander only needs to look after Taihou, right~ Commander~"

Taihou insisted that it was Noshiro's fault. If it weren't for this little fairy, the commander would have directly taken action, and there would have been no need to pay so much attention.

So Taihou straightened her body and wrapped her large, soft deck around Zhengri's head, letting him feel her love.

"Well, it's not like that. After all, it's normal for me to chat with Noshiro. She's my ship girl, and besides, Taihou, you need my care too, right?"

"Mmm~ Taihou needs Commander to take good care of her~ Commander, will you take care of Taihou now? Commander, you can play the dad."

"How about Taihou plays the daughter? A stern father punishing his disobedient daughter, ugh! Commander, really..."

Zheng Ri's words stirred up Da Feng, who then started brainstorming ideas, such as having his absolute favorite commander act as the father and himself as the daughter, but he was still too shy.

Come on over right away.

"No! Shameless..."

Hearing Taihou's ambiguous and suggestive words, Noshiro's face flushed red. After all, she had heard her older sister say similar things before, but she thought it was a joke. Who knew that she was serious?

"Alright, alright, whatever you say, Da Feng. I'll give you a good talking to when I get back. Nodo, that's all for now. I'm going to talk to Da Feng about this. We'll talk about it next time. Let's go, Da Feng."

"Ah! Commander's princess carry, Taihou is so happy...so blissful..."

Hearing Da Feng's words, Zheng Ri felt that this was wonderful, so he could only agree to Da Feng's request. At the same time, he warned her not to talk nonsense, because he could not accept it.

So Zheng Ri had no choice but to reach out and hug Tai Feng, adjust her position, and pick her up in a princess carry. He was going to teach her a lesson. In the end, only Noshiro, who was still thinking about bad things, was left standing there. This was too exciting, and she couldn't accept it for a while.

"My foolish little sister, you're so slow! Even I, your older sister, shake my head when I see you."

As the sun set, Agano, who had been secretly observing, came out and looked at his younger sister Noshiro, who was still in a daze, and couldn't help but shake his head and say something.

"Sister! When did you arrive?"

"When? That was when Noshiro was chatting with the Commander, right? She said something about Agano-neechan wanting to see you, didn't she? Noshiro, lying isn't a good habit~"

Agano held one hand to her chest and touched her lips with the other as she spoke. After observing her sister's reaction, Agano sat down next to her and reminded her.

"It's all because Agano-neechan always teases me..."

Noshiro couldn't help but puff out her cheeks as she spoke, feeling utterly exposed in front of her older sister.

"Hehe~ That's just my personality. Besides, Noshiro, why can't you learn from me? Even if I can't learn from her, learning from her personality would be no problem at all for the Commander."

"Agano-neechan, let's forget about it and choose another one."

Listening to Agano's somewhat exasperated words, Noshiro felt a little annoyed. After all, this opportunity was brought to her by her older sister, but that was just her personality. There was nothing she could do about it. She couldn't learn her sister's personality, and her younger sister's personality was also difficult to change. All she could say was that the future was promising.

"Hmm...actually, I have a plan, but Noshiro, I'll be charging tuition afterwards~"

"Agano-neechan, tell me, how can I change myself?"

Seeing that Noshiro had already taken the bait, Agano grinned crookedly.

Chapter 127 Big Phoenix

"Commander~ You've come to the wrong place, Taihou's house is over there~"

As Masaharu carried Taihou away from the dining hall, he suddenly forgot which seat Taihou and the others lived in. Suddenly, with Taihou pointing, Masaharu found his seat and looked at the very distinctive Sakura Empire-style... self-built house in front of him.

"Da Fengfeng, are you applying for an expansion or a renovation? You can even build a self-built house?"

Masaru carried Taihou to the elegant Sakura Empire-style house in front of him. There was a small stone path leading to the entrance, and the walls were marked with Sakura Empire characters. Although he couldn't understand them, Masaru was sure that this was Taihou's house.

Zheng Ri immediately began to feel envious. After all, thinking about the previous housing prices, it would have taken him thirty years of hard work to afford them, which was really unbearable.

"Mmm, Commander~ This is Taihou and Commander's favorite little house. From now on, Commander can do some naughty things with Taihou in this house."

Taihou wrapped her arms around Masahiro's neck and looked at her self-built house. Actually, she was still a little dissatisfied with the house. The yard was a bit small, and she couldn't take a bath with her beloved Commander.

However, the thought of her commander playing some games in the kitchen made Taihou's face gradually turn red, and she began to fantasize about some fun little games.

"Dafeng, how much did this cost? Are you all so rich?"

Zheng Ri didn't go straight into Da Feng's house. Instead, he started to observe it. After all, it was his own Da Feng's house, so he had to take a good look at it. At the same time, he was thinking about whether he could build a villa with his money.

After all, this was his biggest wish, and a house is a very important part of being a Donghuang person.

"Hehe, actually, Taihou didn't spend much money, just 200,000 resource coins. If Commander wants, Taihou can actually put the house under Commander's account~"
