Getting Married Without My Badge

A well-written letter was folded squarely and placed in a blue envelope with a dolphin on it.

After licking the envelope with her tongue, she pressed firmly to close it.

“Oh, this is my favorite…!”

After thinking about it for a while, Clare finally put the sticker of the knife rabbit she loved on the envelope. It was a big decision.

“Miss! You have to go to school now!”

Ash called from under the stairs.

“Yes!”

Clare came down to the living room with her backpack and letter envelope.

“Ash, I’m sending this!”

“Are you sending it to the great master?”

“Yes, it’s the fastest way to get there!”

Clare put on her backpack and sneakers.

“But what about my sister?”

Clare asked.

“She has already left.”

After putting the letter in the bag that she was carrying around her shoulder, she fixed Clare’s shoelaces once more.

“Hey! I wanted to go out together!”

Clare pouted and gave a look of disappointment.

“She left early because an important guest was visiting. She said it will be for a while.”

“Is the lieutenant general doing this to bully my older sister?”

“It’s not like that.”

Ash came out and took out the bike.

She put Clare in the back seat, then pulled out the bike and went down the small hill.

“Does Miss want her to marry him?”

“Ummm…”

Clare pondered for a moment and shook her head.

“I heard it on the radio, but the bad guy needs to roll a little.”

So he has to roll more too!

Ash vowed to be careful when letting Clare listen to radio broadcasts in the future.

It was as if she had heard the episode of ‘The Ex-Husband’s Belated Regrets’ aired a week ago.

The bike went down the hill quickly. Ash sat on the saddle of the bicycle and pedaled.

“By the way…”

Clare said to Ash’s back.

“Can I brag about my relationship with you at school?”

“No.”

“Then what can I be proud of?”

“You can brag that you got the knife rabbit sticker she got last time.”

“That’s too weak!”

Clare frowned.

“Yesterday, Lily’s daddy came to ask for money, and she said that her mom beat him up!”

She wanted to brag too, and Clare stuck out her tongue.

‘Is home education in this neighborhood okay?’

With that thought in mind, Ash peddled a little faster.

It was the beginning of a peaceful day.

~*~

The Royal Knights arrived only one day after contacting that they were visiting for exchange purposes.

This was really disrespectful from the Navy’s point of view.

It was also a problem that they contacted them late after leaving, but the visit of the knights caused a setback in the internal schedule of the navy.

In addition, by doing this, it was like creating a hierarchy between organizations and emphasizing it.

The fact that the kingdom’s military organization even had a law stating that they were all in the same position under the king showed how disrespectful it was. Read only at pm tl.

“Is every noble family like that?”

Leto said, staring at the blue sea beyond the harbor.

“What do you mean?”

Lieutenant Colonel Ice, who was next to him, answered with a smirk.

In his middle age, he boasted of tanned skin.

“Since the lieutenant general is also a nobleman. Isn’t Oceanus a family that even Delat couldn’t get a business card from?”

“He’s a little bit of a bastard.”

“Don’t be rude.”

Not knowing how to react, Lieutenant Colonel Ice laughed.

“Anyway, what are our noble royal knights doing now?”

“Lieutenant Fist will be responding now.”

Leto’s aide, Lieutenant Fist, was now weeping and eating to deal with uninvited guests.

“I don’t want to cry.”

“Aren’t you a lieutenant?”

“Those capital’s scoundrels.”

“Haha…”

Lieutenant Colonel Ice responded with a dull smile instead. Surely that had some potential.

After the conversation, Leto looked back.

“Is everyone gathered?”

In front of him, his troops stood in line. There were 10 members of the unit, and if you include Leto and Lieutenant Colonel Ice, there were a total of 12.

All of the Special Ship Commands under the Naval Headquarters gathered.

After finishing the roll call, Leto explained the schedule.

“New gear has arrived.”

Square bags were standing in a row where he blinked.

The bag, painted black with hard material, looked like an ordinary briefcase.

“Those who are called will grab a new bag, and the rest will board the frigate. The crew on board observed a trial run”

“O Merciful Mother in heaven…!”

Ami prayed earnestly.

“Please, let this poor woman get on the frigate…!”

Unfortunately, Ami was included in the named list.

“Damn god.”

Ami came back with her bag.

“We can’t help it.”

Noah, who was called likewise, sat next to her and opened the bag.

Inside was an outfit in the shape of a protective gear that looked like it was made of dark iron.

“That means our power is great. There are very few people who can dive next to a submarine.”

“I wish I could bribe them with more money…”

“What a snob.”

Noah, who answered roughly, took out the gear and put it on.

The snow-like snow-shoes she wore on the soles were also worn on her wrists, ankles, and knees, like braces.

After checking her gear, Noah sat and lifted her legs high into the sky.

‘Is it lighter than before?’

She got up and walked over to her seat a few times.

It was definitely lighter. Noah was quite satisfied with this new gear.

The crew members who finished wearing them gathered in one place again.

The rest of the crew got on the ship under the leadership of Lieutenant Colonel Ice and set off first.

The sound of the water crashing at the front was so refreshing.

“There is a message.”

Leto, who was in charge of the rest, was also wearing gear.

“Be aware that submarines may be more difficult to enter and maintain underwater than before.”

The crew quickly grasped the message in their minds.

“Be careful, the submarine says that her underwater entry and maintenance can be more difficult than before.”

A wrinkle appeared between the foreheads of the other divers, including Ami.

“It’ll run at an average speed immediately after joining the frigate, and then dive according to my signal.”

“Yes!” 

The short reply roared.

“Captain Bello.”

Leto called Noah.

“Did you call me?”

“Do you know Major General Francie?”

It was a random question. Noah was quite puzzled, but she quickly replied that she knew.

“Yes.”

As if asking about something obvious, Noah’s eyebrow twitched. Then Leto’s expression hardened slightly.

“Wasn’t he the military commander who served last year?”

“You don’t know each other?”

Noah shook her head and said.

“I’ve seen him maybe once or twice.”

“…”

“Are there any problems?”

“No.”

Even though he turned around saying it was nothing special, Leto still had an unfamiliar look on his face.

“…”

But Noah only stared at Leto like that, and didn’t ask more.

When she returned to her seat, Ami was smirking as she waited.

“Why did he call you? To say that he loves you?”

“Lieutenant Chitia, bang your head.”

“What?!”

Ami grunted, but gently banged her head and got up right away.

“…We’ve always made a clear distinction between public and private talks.”

Noah said with a communication device installed. She put a small earplug-like thing over her ear and tapped it with her finger, and a small noise rang out.

Then it clicked with a beep sound.

Noah spoke to the telecommunication apparatus.

“Captain Noah Bello of the Navy’s Special Ships Command, I request you to confirm communication.”

After a while, a familiar voice was heard.

[Captain Bello, communication has been confirmed.]

It was Lieutenant Colonel Ice who was on the frigate.

[It is located 3 nautical miles from the headquarters. The location will be sent to you soon, so when you set out, you just have to join along the route.]

After finishing the communication, Noah winked at Leto.

“Everyone!”

At Leto’s call, the crew stood in front of the pier.

The sea far away from the horizon was sparkling white, but the sea water in the harbor was strangely dark.

However, there was also a hint of blue light in it. But no one fell into the water.

Soon the crew threw themselves into the sea.

~*~

The Naval Headquarters was the supreme body that oversees the Navy.

There were several units organized under the headquarters, and the most recently established was the ‘Special Ship Command’.

Only 13 elite members belonged to this so-called ‘speciality’.

Although the scale was the smallest among all the units, it was also the place where the most outstanding achievers were placed in the shortest time since the establishment.

“I feel it every time…”

Ami admired her reflection on the sea surface.

“Magic is really amazing.”

The way she was leisurely walking on the sea was like a miracle from god.

However, this was not such a fanciful, mythical power.

It was the result of the explosion of the tower.

“How did they not fight with this great technology 100 years ago?” 

“So? Adbello is great!”

Hornes, who came closer, gleamed.

“It’s because the master of the tower from Adbello exploded the tower, so we are where we are today.”

Noah was worried about Hornes.

But he was right.

All of this now was the result of the revolution that the magic tower has achieved over the past 100 years.

Magic has improved the quality of life by applying it in various fields, breaking away from the primitive idea of ​​imitating natural phenomena.

And the most developed field of magic in the Kingdom of Adlabor was the military realm.

The ‘gears’ worn by these members now was the essence of Adlabor magic research.

The Special Ship Command was a magical combat unit that fought with the advanced magic technology developed by the Adbello family and the magic tower.
