CHAPTER 14

THIRD PERSON POINT OF VIEW

After the successful mission of the operation to liberate Midway, now Commander Wales and her secretary Cleveland are taking a walk around the base to relax after preparing reports following the mission's success. As they walk around the base, Cleveland is very excited about how lively the commercial area near the port is.

Cleveland: Wow! It really got very exciting around here!

Wales: Eagle Union and Royal Navy forces are gathering at this base, things will get busier from now on.

Cleveland: Do you know who will come by my side? It's the best warrior of the Eagle Union who has been awarded the highest number of battle stars.

Wales: Gray Ghost? The main forces of the Royal Navy will also arrive very soon, this base will surely become the center of all our ongoing activities.

Cleveland: (Very excited) Then we better greet them properly. We can't keep them waiting!

Cleveland runs away and his friend just smiles at Cleveland's action, then near Wales a girl with a black cloak and hood passes by, which at first glance stands out as suspicious, but it seems that no one notices.

Suddenly, a gust of wind snatches the hood off the girl, revealing that she is Ayanami, a destroyer from the Sakura Empire.

On the other hand, Wales and Cleveland go to the port to receive Illustrious, which is a leading aircraft carrier of the Illustrious class.

Illustrious walks and sees her friend Wales at the port waiting for her, and she smiles upon seeing an old friend after such a long time. Behind Illustrious is hidden Unicorn, who is also an aircraft carrier, but a light aircraft carrier.

Illustrious: What an honor that the prince has come to see me.

Wales: Please leave the formalities, old friend. You know you can call me by my name without honorifics. Long time no see, Illustrious.

Illustrious: Good morning, Prince of Wales, who is your friend?

Cleveland: My name is USS Cleveland, a cruiser from the Eagle Union. It's a pleasure.

In that moment, Cleveland realizes Unicorn and Unicorn hides behind Illustrious.

Illustrious: She is Unicorn, I'm sorry, but she is too shy, I hope you don't feel offended.

Cleveland: No, there's no problem. It's a pleasure to meet you, Unicorn.

TIME SKIP

Now Cleveland, Wales, and Illustrious are gathered in the office to discuss very important matters.

Illustrious: I was surprised that you made a sudden move and it turned out to be successful.

Wales: It was fortunate that a fleet returning from a mission discovered it by accident, so I had a chance to attack and I took it, which is why I was successful in the operation, although there were many damages to the allied fleet and they are already back.

Illustrious: I see... Hood and the others are two days or less away from the base and will join us.

Wales: (surprised) Shouldn't we be keeping an eye on Iron Blood? How is that going?

Illustrious: A temporary truce due to lack of information, what matters most to us is...

Wales: Just as I expected, the Sakura Empire.

Illustrious: Indeed.

Wales: If the empire makes its move, this base will be one of the hottest spots. Strengthening the base is the most natural thing to do. I hope the empire doesn't do anything foolish.
