My ship girl setup is off...

Page 148

After separating from him, Elizabeth, breathing heavily, stared at him. Clearly, she was now getting into the mood, which pleased Zheng Ri.

"Is there anything else we need to do? Well, something even more comfortable, of course, but before that, I need to give you this..."

After saying that, Zheng Ri took out a small black box from the inside pocket of his clothes and, while she was still in a daze, slipped the ring onto her right hand.

Chapter 394 The Belated Ring

"Eh? Eh?!!"

In a daze, Elizabeth felt something being put on her finger. She glanced at it subconsciously and saw that the thing she had always wanted was now on her ring finger.

Staring at the oath ring that shimmered with tiny lights, Elizabeth blinked her bewildered eyes, stunned for a few seconds before finally reacting. Her eyes widened and her mouth gaped open, somewhat incredulous, yet...

"How about it? This is the surprise I prepared for you. I know my lovely Queen arrived in my port a long time ago and has been working hard to maintain it. You've worked so hard all this way."

"So although this ring is late, it won't be forgotten, Elizabeth."

Seeing Elizabeth staring intently at her right ring finger, her left hand covering her mouth, and tears welling up in her eyes, almost spilling out, Zheng Ri gently held her right hand and whispered something in her ear.

"You...you, humph! I thought you had forgotten me, but it turns out you still remember. Well done, my servant..."

As he spoke in her ear, Elizabeth forced back her tears, then smiled sweetly, put her hands on her hips, showed her little tiger teeth, and looked up at him, but her mouth remained stubborn.

Is that all?

"What do you mean 'only this'? Do you want to see me cry in your arms, all moved to tears? Don't even think about it, I won't do that, but..."

Elizabeth wiped away her tears with her wrist and looked at him with displeasure. After all, she was Her Majesty the Queen; how could she possibly do such a thing?

However, after speaking, Elizabeth still pouted, lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushed with shy pink, and opened her right hand, which was adorned with the vow ring, slowly placing her palm against his, her fingers tightly intertwined with his, holding his hand, not wanting to be separated from him.

At least not now.

"However, considering your attitude towards..."

Having said these words, I finally placed the ring in your hand. I grant you permission to hold my hand, and from this day forward, no matter what happens, I, this king, will walk with you forever…”

Nestled in his arms, holding his hand, listening to the reassuring heartbeat in his chest, she spoke words of affection that she would never normally express. Only here, at this moment, in the room with just the two of them, would Elizabeth say such things to him.

"Really? I thought that was what you, as my ship girl, thought from the beginning."

Hearing Elizabeth's heartfelt words, Zheng Ri was quite moved. If he felt guilty when facing Long Island, he felt moved when facing Elizabeth.

"Are you an idiot? When have I ever thought differently? It's just that I was using my identity as a ship girl before."

"Now, I'm speaking to you as your wife, your beloved, in the guise of our marriage ship."

Looking up at Zheng Ri's face, Elizabeth immediately retorted that she had never failed as a ship girl, and it was always the same; it was just that this time it was a more intimate relationship.

"I'm sorry, my silly Bai, I didn't doubt you. I was just trusting you in a different way."

Because her right hand was being held tightly by her, Zheng Ri reached out his left hand to stroke her head, and Elizabeth obediently lowered her head to let him stroke her. He was someone she could never be separated from, and she would allow him to do whatever he wanted.

At the very least, I can't live without him, and I can't live without him.

His fingers touched her finely cared-for soft hair, the golden color of which, along with the small crown on her head, symbolized her status. Following the direction of her hair, he gently touched her small ears and her round, pink earlobes, then stroked her fair, soft face, gently lifting her chin, her rosy lips slightly parted.

"Should we...should we continue? I'm ready now, both mentally and in terms of the next steps..."

Elizabeth's expression revealed tension and bewilderment, but she still slowly closed her eyes, preparing to receive his gentleness and roughness, whether it was a storm or a passionate encounter, she was ready, and even looked forward to his whispered words to her afterward.

However, even with this in mind, things can sometimes go wrong.

Just as Elizabeth closed her eyes, preparing to receive his deep kiss, the door creaked open with a loud "!" as if the lock had been twisted by immense pressure. The door, which had been closed, was pushed open slightly, causing Elizabeth to stare blankly for over ten seconds without reacting.

"I'm very sorry to have disturbed the Commander and Her Majesty the Queen, but... everyone, since you've taken this step, it's only natural to step forward, right?"

However, just when Elizabeth thought everything was alright, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a beautiful and elegant figure walked in. It was Belfast. She even gave a curtsy to Elizabeth and turned to the door to speak. Only then did someone else enter from outside the door.

"I apologize, Your Majesty, for my rudeness..."

The group that entered included Neptune, Cheshire, the Prince of Wales, Howe, Belfast, Edinburgh, Southampton, and others. Warspite, who came in last, was holding his forehead, Nelson couldn't bear to watch, and Rodney was covering his mouth and chuckling.

When she saw Neptune and Cheshire, her face only turned slightly red. But when Howe, Southampton, and Warspite came in, Elizabeth's face turned white, blue, and purple. This was a very interesting scene for Zheng Ri to witness. Finally, Elizabeth pointed her trembling finger at Warspite and asked him in an incredulous tone.

"War-weariness... could it be that you also..."

"Your Majesty, it's not like that... I was just guarding outside, but they insisted on getting close enough to spy on us, there was nothing I could do..."

Warspite said with a helpless expression, then looked at the group of idiots pretending to enjoy the scenery and couldn't help but shake his head.

"So you found out after all, didn't you?!"

“Uh, yes… yes, Your Majesty…”

As soon as she finished speaking, Elizabeth was overwhelmed with shame and immediately lay down.

Chapter 395 Silly Cheshire and Miss Unlucky

"It's all your fault, you silly cat! It's all because you had nothing better to do than go and spy on us. Did it really have to come to this?"

"~~~~()~~~~, This isn't Cheshire's fault! I was just curious, so I peeked inside, and then you all leaned in, and it got too heavy, so it just happened..."

"And Cheshire really wanted to see her darling too~, who knew it would turn out like this, waaaaaa o(mouth)o"

In the hallway outside, Cheshire and Neptune were carrying two enormous suitcases filled with extremely heavy stones, with a large bucket of water balanced on their heads.

The ground beneath their feet began to crack, and the person watching them was none other than Belfast, who had been caught while innocently passing by out of curiosity. She was now watching them from the opposite side.

Of course, because Neptune and Cheshire bribed Belfast, they secretly activated a bit of their ship equipment's power; otherwise, they probably would have collapsed from exhaustion on the ground after a whole day.

Little Bei, who had been bribed, stared blankly with innocent eyes, swinging her short legs clad in white stockings as she sat on the stool. She secretly hid the snacks they had given her, intending to secretly report it to her future self in exchange for a chance to meet the Commander.

It has to be said that if Jeong-il knew, he would definitely say, "Little Belfast, you are really despicable now, but because Little Belfast is so cute, I forgive her."

Similarly, Southampton was also subjected to torture next to them. Not only did she have to report to Hood to retake the course on ladylike etiquette, but she was also punished by being sent to the maids' corps to learn how to serve others. That was alright, but she also had to retake the etiquette of the Royal Knights, which gave her a headache.

King George V was not one to nitpick; if anything was slightly off, he would demand it, and if it wasn't right, he would start over!

If it were just this, it would be fine, but Southampton knew that King George V would treat people differently, and knew that his punishment would be more severe.

As for the comparison of treatment? Forget about it. King George V would only require the commander to know and perform one or two general actions. As for himself?

Southampton shook his head sadly, "My God."

"By the way, silly cat, where are Edinburgh and Howe?"

After peeking around, Neptune realized that it was just himself, Cheshire, and Southampton. He asked Cheshire, "Aren't there a few other people who are going to be punished?"

"His Highness the Prince of Wales has been placed under a prohibition order and has been required to work overtime on a mission. Miss Howe is in the same boat; she was captured by Belfast in Edinburgh and we don't know what she's doing there. And don't call Cheshire a silly cat! Cheshire is absolutely adorable!"

"It should be called 'Super Invincible I Love You!'"

"Silly Cat"

"Silly young lady!"

Neptune and Cheshire didn't get along, and they started arguing at the drop of a hat, which naturally attracted Gloucester, who happened to be passing by.

"Are you two still arguing? Her Majesty the Queen is already very displeased. If this continues, I will have to suggest it to Head Maid Belfast."

Gloucester's words successfully silenced them both, causing the two who didn't get along to shut up and obediently accept their punishment.

But while they quieted down, little Belfast was anything but. She jumped off the stool, went to Gloucester's side, tugged at her skirt, and then told Gloucester what had happened.

Suddenly, Gloucester's gaze sharpened, and he looked at the two unfortunate souls, making them tremble and think the same thing.

We've been betrayed!

...

"I mean, Elizabeth, they really couldn't possibly endure such punishment, could they?"

He lay on his side on the royal sofa, watching Elizabeth sitting in front of the magnificent dressing table, letting Jarvis, Perseus, and Charybdis dress her up. He opened his mouth to her, pleading for mercy on behalf of Shiba Inu and the others, but Elizabeth did not agree to his request.

"That won't do. These guys are always giving me trouble. Now that things have gotten this bad, what kind of order would it be if they weren't punished?"

Elizabeth answered him with her eyes closed, her tone tinged with anger, but not directed at him, but at the troublesome ship girls.

Zheng Ri thought about it for a moment and realized that Elizabeth was usually proud, shy, and arrogant. Now that she had finally put a ring on her finger and let her experience the sweetness of love, it was one thing for a bunch of people to be eavesdropping, but they also ruined the perfect atmosphere. It would be strange if she wasn't angry.

So Zheng Ri stopped talking and just watched her with her eyes closed as she was dressed up. However, just watching like that was a bit boring, since it was still the same clothes, just a change of hairstyle.

Of course, it wasn't particularly boring, but the silhouettes of Perseus and Charybdis were so alluring that even if they did nothing, they exuded their beautiful qualities, making it impossible not to look at them.

There's no way around it, I'm used to it. Even when I'm looking at my phone, I'm constantly drawn to it. Seriously, where did this succubus come from? Normally, I'd definitely glare at her fiercely.

But since I made a vow with Elizabeth today, I can't keep looking at them, that wouldn't be right. After thinking it over, I decided to go for a walk.

Elizabeth, I'm going out for a bit.

"Wait! Where are you going?!"

"Her Majesty the Queen!"

When Elizabeth heard Zheng Ri say that she wanted to go for a walk, she couldn't sit still anymore. Regardless of how her hairstyle had changed, she came to him after being reminded by Charybdis and hugged him tightly.

Elizabeth was terrified that he might slip out of her sight in the blink of an eye, a fear that she couldn't quite explain, as if something was about to snatch him away, and this premonition grew stronger and stronger.

"Where are you going? Don't leave me... If you're going, let me go with you."

Elizabeth's eyes began to well up with tears, and she looked at him with teary eyes, which made Zheng Ri somewhat unsure of what to do.

Thinking straight, I'm not going out to do anything, am I? Why am I so worried?

"I'm just going to the... restroom."

"...Scylla, you go with him."

"what?"

Elizabeth froze when he said he was going to the toilet, then instructed Scylla to follow him, which made Zheng Ri even more confused.

"I understand, Your Majesty."

However, Scylla was clearly pleased, looking at Masahiro with a meaningful gaze.

Chapter 396 The County Magistrate's Wife

"Scylla, you don't actually need to come with me. I'm just going to the restroom for a little while."

"That won't do, Master. Her Majesty the Queen sent me here to simply accompany you. Please don't worry, I won't do anything to spy on you. Of course, if there's anything you need, Master, you can instruct me to do it for you, such as..."

"Helping you hold the faucet or something is also an option..."

When he came out on the main day, he told Scylla that it wasn't necessary, as the toilet wasn't far away and she didn't need to come with him. However, Scylla completely ignored his instructions. Instead, after glancing around and finding that there were no other ship girls present, she secretly approached him and whispered stimulating words in his ear.

It was an instinctive, subconscious reaction to the dragon raising its head.

"Hehe, I can see that Master's desires are a little strong~ But that makes sense, after all, you have so many marriage ships, otherwise it would be troublesome for them all."

Scylla maintained a smile on her face, but her eyes were fixed on Zheng Ri's thighs, as if she were carefully appreciating them. Finally, she slowly nodded, and a brighter smile appeared on her face.

"You are, Scylla, right? You were the ship girl I created the time before last, but I don't remember really spending much time with you... you..."

Zheng Ri naturally noticed where her gaze was fixed, but it didn't matter. There's a saying that goes, if you're not embarrassed, it's the other person who's embarrassed. Besides, he already knew that he couldn't change his status as the number one pervert in the port area. So Zheng Ri could only let her stare at him like a cat staring at its crotch, hoping that she would show weakness and back down.

"Yes, Master. It's a pleasure to meet you for the first time—no, this is our third meeting. My Master, please allow me to formally greet you. I am Scylla, a Dido-class light anti-aircraft cruiser. As you can see, I am just an ordinary, unremarkable maid."

Scylla maintained her smile, then formally curtsied to him, before her gaze returned to his thighs, which made Zheng Ri feel awkward.

"Just an ordinary maid? I feel that the fact that you dare to stare at me like that already makes you extraordinary, really."

Unexpectedly, she wasn't embarrassed at all. On the contrary, Zheng Ri awkwardly used his "covering his groin" technique to cover his private parts and block her view, but it didn't seem to work. Her gaze was still fixed on him.

What's more, the last ordinary person was an office worker, and a big fan of liking posts.

"Really? That's wonderful! I'm so happy to receive your praise, Master."

"Okay, it's nothing really, but could you please stop staring at me like that? I might be a bit twisted with my own ship girls, but there's no need to do this to a ship girl who just arrived recently."

Unable to bear her direct gaze any longer, Zheng Ri could only plead with her with a bitter face, as he really didn't want Elizabeth to be so relentlessly pressured right after he gave her the ring.

While silver parties are great, they also have rules.

"Hehe~, Master, you've misunderstood something. I am Your Majesty's maidservant, which means that during this time, whatever you wish to do to me is permitted."

Seeing Zheng Ri's crotch-covering technique, Scylla took another step forward and stood in front of him, bending slightly over and getting close to him, speaking to him so that Zheng Ri could feel the elegant fragrance and alluring breath emanating from her body.

Is that so?

"Yes, that's right, Master. Although I am Her Majesty the Queen's maid, I am also your maid. Moreover, in the port area, your words carry more weight than Her Majesty the Queen's. Therefore, whatever you wish to do to me, I can accept it."

Scylla's smile grew even brighter as she explained to him this simplest of truths in the port area.

Because the commander has unlimited power in the port, and most of the ship girls under his command are the pinnacle of combat power in this world, he is essentially above everyone else. Any order that comes from his mouth is equivalent to the will of God for this world.

However, it was clear that her master did not understand these things very well, but Scylla did not care, in fact, it was better that way.
