Chapter 280 The Next Place

"My dear child, it's time to wake up~"

Frederick's face flushed slightly as he watched his child suckle like a child. But knowing that it was almost time, he could only urge him slowly, clinging to his child. Even though they were always together, there would always be times when they had to be apart.

"Huh? Frederick, I wasn't asleep, I was just half asleep."

Hearing her call his name, Zheng Ri opened his eyes, looked at Frederick with a doting smile on his face, spat out, and then asked her what she wanted.

"Hehe~, it seems you've forgotten, my lovely child. Do you remember saying we had to explore every faction's territory? Have you forgotten?"

Seeing his sleepy look, Frederick chuckled softly, ignoring the softness he was about to exhale, and instead gently touched his temples with his slender, white fingertips to keep him from falling asleep.

Can I not go?

As Frederick gently massaged him, Masaharu felt himself slowly becoming more awake, but he still didn't want to move. It wasn't just because he was being exploited by the ship girls in turn, but also because... they were taking such good care of him.

Looking around, he saw himself resting his head on Frederick's soft thighs, with Hu Teng massaging his body. On the other side, Rupprecht, the proud young lady, had become quite clingy, holding his hands tightly and refusing to let go. Although she didn't say anything, it was clear from her dark golden eyes that she didn't want to be separated from him.

Most importantly, whenever I touch her sensitive spots, she'll hit me with a pillow. After feeling embarrassed, she'll obediently sit down and do her rehabilitation exercises. It's amazing.

Furthermore, in this atmosphere, Zheng Ri felt inexplicably inflated, enjoying things he didn't have before, like a pufferfish that had grown big. Now, when it came to leaving this environment, to be honest, he was definitely not happy.

"In that case, I think Richelieu will be very troubled, Commander. So for everyone's sake, you'd better get up quickly. She's already on her way."

Hu Teng spoke in his still cold voice, as if he were lecturing. However, as Hu Teng swayed his body, Zheng Ri heard a clear, bell-like sound. Turning his gaze, he saw that Hu Teng was only wearing simple clothes that covered his nipples, revealing a large area of ​​fair skin, and he was also wearing a cat ear headband.

Most importantly, she wore a pink necklace around her neck, which was chained to her wrist. With just a gentle pull, she could make Hu Teng obey her commands and come to her.

"emmm..."

Jeongil didn't speak, but was thinking. After tugging slightly at the chains, he gave up.

To be honest, the fact that a cold beauty like Hu Teng took the initiative to play role-playing games initially excited Zheng Ri, but after playing for a while, he started to feel that way.

"Alright, my child, although I also want to enjoy this wonderful erotic melody with you again, you always have to keep your promise to the ship girls, don't you?"

Seeing that Jeongil was still hesitant, Frederick added fuel to the fire by kissing his forehead, urging him to fulfill the promise he had made.

After all, they've waited so long, filled with joy to welcome their beloved, only to find that he refuses to come before them. Whether they are ship girls or human women, they would all feel disappointed.

"Alright, since Frederick and Hutten have both said so, it wouldn't be good if I didn't get up."

Frederick's urging and the movements of her hands fully woke him up. She was right; he had stayed in Ironblood for some time, and it was time to move on to the next place.

The.

Moreover, thinking of Richelieu, Zheng Ri immediately thought of the swimsuit he had bought for her, and so he stood up.

"I hate to say this, but Commander, isn't it a bit inappropriate to be thinking about other people while surrounded by ship girls?"

Hu Teng noticed his reaction and gaze; it was clear his mind wasn't on the subject. This made Hu Teng wonder if calling out Richelieu's name was a mistake. Perhaps he should try a different approach to remind him?

"It's alright, get up now, don't keep them waiting."

After saying that, Zheng Ri remembered to put on some clothes. After all, neither he nor Frederick and the others had more than one piece of clothing on them. They couldn't possibly go to Richelieu naked.

However, when he tried to get up, Frederick stopped him, a slightly reluctant expression on his face.

"My child, since we're going to be separated for a while, shouldn't we have a kiss?"

"certainly"

Knowing how much Frederick, with her maternal instincts, clung to him, Zheng Ri naturally wouldn't refuse her request. Instead, he sat up and kissed her...

"What's wrong? Are you a little cold? My child, do you need my hug?"

Zheng Ri, having changed into his clothes, arrived at the designated spot to await Richelieu's arrival. However, having gotten used to being dressed for several days without any clothes, he felt a strange discomfort now that he was dressed, but this feeling was fleeting.

"No need, Frederick. It wouldn't be good if Richelieu saw us later."

Zheng Ri politely declined, saying that although she had no image to speak of, she didn't want to start kissing him while hugging him. If Richelieu saw this and it was snowing, she would know what the pain of a white album was.

"Hehe, alright then, my child."

Having roughly guessed his thoughts, Frederick did not interfere, but chose to respect his choice.

However, Zheng Ri and Frederick did not have to wait long. Soon, a blue car sped over and stopped less than ten meters away from them, and several beautiful figures got out of the car one after another.

"Phew~, it's finally our turn. I didn't expect you to still be waiting here. It was worth driving to pick you up. But you seem to be living a pretty comfortable life."

Jean Bart got out of the driver's seat and spoke cheerfully, but when her eyes fell on him, her expression changed and she gave a slight smile.

"It's alright, thank you for your hard work, Jeanbart. But where's Sister Li?"

Zheng Ri thanked her and then asked if the person he wanted to see was there. However, upon hearing his question, Barr raised an eyebrow and turned to look at the passenger seat.

"I didn't expect he'd like you more than me. Tch, how unpleasant. Alright, come out now."

After Jean Bart finished rambling, Zheng Ri looked at the passenger seat, and then the car door was slowly opened, revealing red shoes as the first thing he saw.

Chapter 281 Don't Let Waiting Become Regret

"The old year has ended, and the new year has arrived. Likewise, I've changed into an outfit called 'New Year's Attire.' Do I look good in this, Commander?"

After getting out of the passenger seat, Richelieu, wearing her red mid-heeled shoes, strolled over to Masahiro with a shy smile, hoping to get a satisfactory answer from him.

Zheng Ri was captivated by Richelieu's outfit; it was like seeing a picture versus seeing the real person – the difference was striking.

Her red mid-heeled shoes showcased her uniqueness. Dressed in a white kimono, Richelieu toned down her identity as a bishop, transforming into a noble lady. She exuded a gentle yet powerful aura, and the small white hat she wore added to her elegance and beauty, giving her a distinctive charm.

What's even more alluring is her confident and perfect face and eyes. Her lowered eyelids reveal her gentleness and pleading. Her beautiful, azalea-like eyes gradually draw you in, making it impossible not to stare into their depths.

"I can tell, I look great in this outfit, don't I, Commander?"

Richelieu waited for a long time but did not get the reply he wanted. However, judging from his stunned expression, he had already gained more satisfaction than he had imagined.

"Yes, yes, Sister Li, you look so beautiful in this outfit! I couldn't help but stare at you in amazement."

Reminded by Richelieu, Zheng Ri quickly came to his senses and tried to salvage his image by not being so lecherous, but judging from the disdainful expression on Jean Bart's face, it seemed to be of no use.

"Thank you for your praise, Commander. In that case, I won't pursue your matter further... Frederick the Great, it's been a long time."

Richelieu spoke with a smile, then looked at Frederick, walked up to her and greeted her, to which Frederick happily replied.

“I can see that you are very happy today, Bishop Richelieu.”

"Yes, receiving support from a loved one brings joy. Although there was a minor, insignificant incident, it was harmless."

Watching Richelieu walk past him, Zheng Ri was somewhat confused by her words. Had he done something wrong? But as he pondered this, Algeria, who had gotten out of the back seat, approached him and gently slid her index finger across...

It went over his neck, reminding him.

“Commander, Bishop Richelieu means... you have a hickey on your neck. For a loving woman, having her lover marked as her own is an insult, but you did well, so she forgave you.”

Algeria smiled, lightly touching his kiss mark as she spoke, while Zheng Ri belatedly touched the spot she indicated, recalling in his mind which ship girl had sucked on him, and thought of that tsundere young lady who was particularly clingy afterward.

There's no way around it. I can't just turn around and ask her now, or we'll definitely start arguing.

"There's no need to remind him, Algeria. He sowed the seeds of his own misfortune, so he should reap the consequences."

Compared to the kind-hearted Algeria and Richelieu who didn't pursue the matter, Jean Bart wouldn't let him off so easily. He would at least make him apologize after satisfying himself.

“Your Highness Jeanbart, love should be based on mutual understanding. Since Lord Richelieu is not pursuing this matter, you should also be magnanimous. Am I right, Commander?”

Instead of criticizing Jean Bart, Joan of Arc lectured him, saying that since it was love, he should be forgiven and tolerant, and as long as he did not commit any fundamental errors, it was all acceptable. So, towards the end, Joan of Arc looked at Jeong Il, hoping to gain his approval.

"Um, maybe, yes, probably right..."

Zheng Ri didn't quite agree with Joan of Arc's words, but since he was the actual beneficiary, he couldn't bring himself to say it was wrong. However, with Jean Bart staring straight at him, Zheng Ri had no choice but to give a vague and general answer.

Unfortunately, Japan currently lacks a flexible moral bottom line and controllable motivation, making it less than Paradox Interactive's.

"It's alright, the Holy Light will guide our choices, Commander."

Seeing his unwavering resolve, Joan of Arc smiled and said something, then winked at him as if she had something to say.

"Then that's settled, Frederick the Great."

"Of course, Ironblood will always welcome our allies, Bishop Richelieu."

After exchanging amicable farewells, Richelieu pulled Zheng Ri into the back seat of the carriage and, under Frederick the Great's watchful eye, gradually led him away from the area. Along the way, Richelieu asked Zheng Ri some questions.

"Commander, is there anything you wish to handle next? If so, I'd like to assist you."

After saying that, Richelieu took his hand and said gently that if he had something to deal with, she could accompany him; if not, they should go to a place where both of them could relax and enjoy themselves.

"Sister Li, you said it's a new year now, so what I need to do is definitely... a major construction project!!"

Under Richelieu's tolerant gaze, Zheng Ri voiced his thoughts: How could he not build something at the start of the new year? This was the time when his luck was at its best; he had to build!

The big ones must be built! The small ones must also be built! Only then can it be considered complete.

"Looks like we'll have new companions and sisters, Commander. Thanks for your hard work, Jean Bart."

"I heard that. I remember it was in the South District, right?"

After giving a brief reply, Jean Bart thought for a moment, then turned the car around and drove to another place, since that place was almost abandoned.

"Welcome, Master! Miss Richelieu, are you looking to build something? Do you need my help? Dido will do her best!"

After driving to the location he remembered, Zheng Ri saw Dido cleaning. When she saw him, Dido's face lit up with surprise. She immediately dropped her broom and rushed to him, then greeted him and Richelieu.

"Thank you for your hard work, Dido. How did you know I wanted to build this?"

He hugged the somewhat timid maid, patted her head comfortingly, and asked, "How did she know I was here to build it?"

"It was the head maid who said that if you come here, Master, you'll definitely be here to build, so Dido will come here regularly to clean and wait for you!"

Dido happily nuzzled against him and told him about her plans. After listening, Zheng Ri felt something was off. What if he hadn't come? Would Dido have to keep waiting for him to come?

This reminded Zheng Ri of Raiden from Fleet C, who was consuming the resources dismantled by her sisters while waiting for the admiral to return—it was terrifying.

You need to come often.

"I'm sorry to trouble you, Dido. I need to start building now. Can you help me?"

Feeling even more apologetic towards Dido, Zheng Ri spoke gently, which pleased Dido greatly. She immediately ran off to prepare resources and materials, while Richelieu and the others noticed something was off about Zheng Ri's face and offered a reminder.

"Commander, what's wrong with you?"

"No, I was just thinking about sad things."

Seeing Zheng Ri's expression, Richelieu thought he just felt sorry for Dido, who had been assigned to clean this place, so he smiled and comforted him, telling him not to worry so much.

"Commander, don't overthink it. This is Belfast's arrangement, and there will be rotations. She wouldn't do anything to Dido; she just comes here occasionally. I come here to patrol from time to time."

"Alright, it's just that the scenery brought back memories, it's nothing."

of"

Shaking his head, Zheng Ri banished the bad thoughts from his mind and then went to the construction machine. Seeing that it was still in a normal state and hadn't accumulated any dust, he knew that the maids had taken care of it.

"Master, the resources have been placed inside and are awaiting your summons."

Dido, who had put the items inside, returned to his side, talking happily. Zheng Ri also pressed the construction button, without even checking the time, and accelerated the process.

What are you looking at? Only unlucky people look at the time. Lucky people just build it directly.

However, the moment Zheng Ri pressed the accelerator, he felt something floating down. Looking up, he saw a beam of holy but golden light, along with feathers that were drifting down.

Chapter 282 A nun? A succubus!

"what is this?"

Looking up at the falling white feathers and the holy golden light, Zheng Ri quickly realized what was happening. He picked up the pure feather that was falling in front of him, not understanding what was going on.

"Congratulations, Commander, it seems we've gained another powerful ally."

Masaharu didn't understand the strange phenomenon before her eyes, but Richelieu understood exactly what it was: the commander had built legendary-level ship girls, because only in this way could such a phenomenon occur.

After all, when Rebus woke up in the research pod, it caused a similar result.

"I didn't expect him to be so lucky..."

Jean Bart, who followed along, saw this strange phenomenon. A hint of surprise appeared on his usually calm face, but he quickly regained his composure.

"The commander is really lucky. I wonder which new ally he is."

"If possible, it would be great if it were someone from our camp."

Algeria congratulated him, but his gaze was fixed on the construction gate that had not yet been opened. Joan of Arc, on the other hand, hoped that the new companions would be on her side, so that she could better protect the commander and advance on the road in the coming days.

"Did I win?"

Seeing their appearance, Zheng Ri belatedly realized what was happening. His face, which had initially shown some anticipation, turned into a look of surprise, but he quickly composed himself. After all, these were his new ship girls, and he needed to maintain his image.

So Zheng Ri stood properly in front of the door, watching it open automatically. After more than ten seconds, the door opened, but no one came out.
