The Admiral of Hogwarts

“Belfast's problem occurred during her investiture. Unlike your impression of the 21st century, where the Prince of Wales took over due to the Queen's advanced age, this medal is currently awarded by the Queen herself.”

Hood laughed as she said this. “But Belfast almost addressed the Queen as 'Princess' the moment she saw her.”

For royal ladies, etiquette must be impeccable at all times, especially for those renowned for their royal connections when meeting members of the royal family.

Therefore, Belfast's minor slip-up became a source of amusement for the British ship girls.

“I think you're thinking about something impolite, my dear Commander.” Hood immediately inquired through the admiral network when she saw Hugo deep in thought instead of laughing after hearing the story.

“Can you tell me what you're thinking?”

“I remember the Queen is in her sixties now, but in your minds, she should still be that teenage princess.” Hugo, with no guard against ship girls, blurted out after Hood's question.

“Time really flies. But I guess your perception of time is different from humans.”

“Of course, it's different. We are actually closer to the heroic spirits you have in mind. Therefore, time basically leaves no trace on us.”

At this point, Hood rolled her eyes at Hugo through the admiral network. “So, we are eternally young.”

“On the other hand, what sustains our existence is actually memory. It's the memory that humans have of us. Therefore, as long as there is someone in this world who remembers our existence, we can continue to exist.”

Hood paused here, then said in a very solemn tone. “And as long as you, Commander, can become an Ancient God Admiral, all of us ship girls can gain eternal life at the same time.”

“It seems I have a lot to do in the future.” Hugo replied in an equally solemn tone after thinking seriously for a few minutes.

“But thanks to your reminder, I think I now know what my goal is for the future.”

For Hugo, Hood's reminder pointed out an important path for his future.

Ever since he regained his memories from his previous life, Hugo had been somewhat confused about his future, because he knew he had come to a fairy tale he had read in his previous life, but he didn't know what he should do after the seven years depicted in the fairy tale.

But now Hugo had found his future goal, which was to get as much help as possible from more ship girls, and then become a powerful Ancient God Admiral, leading the ship girls to eternal life.

Because of this, the work report was paused for several minutes. Then Hood, who had finished her report, exited the communication channel, and Massachusetts, who was in charge of American operations, began to report.

“Although development in the United States has been short, the overall level of development is good due to the large population—” Massachusetts began to report to Hugo in a methodical manner.

According to her, the ship girls had successfully built a base each in New York on the East Coast and Los Angeles on the West Coast, and then began recruiting and expanding their forces.

“The various conflicts here are obviously more acute than in the British wizarding world.” Massachusetts complained to Hugo about some of the things she encountered while working.

“At the beginning, we were directly blinded by the situation of the American magical world described in the data. Only in actual operation did we realize that the various situations here were much worse than we imagined.”

“For example, the status of various mixed-blood wizards or magical creatures, and the problem of extreme wealth monopoly similar to the British wizarding world.” Massachusetts explained.

“For example, we now have a number of wizards who are mixed with non-human creatures. They have received standard education, but they are basically unable to find a job that matches their level of education through normal channels.”

“Even Britain is better than here. At least, except for the years when the noseless guy was active, hate-based attacks were not very common in the British wizarding world.”

“But in the United States, almost every day people are attacked because of their blood or identity.”

“For example, the first non-ship girl member we recruited here was picked up on the street. At that time, he lost too much blood due to some evil curse attacks and fell outside our駐紮地. If we hadn't rescued him, he would have been dead.”

“Then you must pay attention to safety.” Hugo earnestly urged. “Don't worry, at least now we have gained a firm foothold in these gathering areas.” Massachusetts said with pride.

“I have to say that these guys who like to discriminate against others here do love to provoke trouble, but the level of skill in their hands is really hard to compliment.”

“At least compared to the wizards in Britain, they are not as good as those in the Old World in terms of inheritance. Basically, they just use those few spells back and forth. Once you are familiar with them, they are much easier to deal with than those enemies in the Old World.”

“That's good, that's good—” Hugo nodded slightly. At least in terms of fighting will and fighting skills, he believed that those troublemakers were definitely no match for the battle-hardened ship girls. What he was worried about before was just that some weird-effect magic might pose a threat to the ship girls.

After listening to Massachusetts' report on the situation in the United States, Hugo first opened his eyes and drank some of the drinks that the flight attendants began to distribute, and then began to listen to the Soviet Union's report on this period.

Unlike Hood and Massachusetts before them, the Soviet Union's area of activity covered the entire Eastern Europe, and their side was also the place facing the most intense conflict at the moment.

Ship girls basically do not participate in wars between humans without the order of the admiral, and the reason they were involved in the war this time was to recapture the Port of Piran, which was likely to fall into the flames of war.

But what they didn't expect was that those people they saved by stopping the war became their staunch supporters, and then, for humanitarian reasons, they began to slowly break through the original planned scope of action and completely involved in this war.

“Thanks to everyone's help, we are now able to successfully advance our plan.” At the beginning, the Soviet Union thanked all the ship girls present.

“During this period, our infiltration of the wizarding world has basically entered a comprehensive defensive position, because now we have almost put all our energy into the battlefield in the Balkan Peninsula.”

Next, the Soviet Union began to report to Hugo on the specific situation of the war to recapture the home port. Unlike what Hugo had imagined before, the ship girl side had gained a far greater advantage than even in the previous speculation.

“Dear Commander Comrade, I would like to remind you that even if we are just some old-fashioned warships from history. But once placed on land, no land combat unit on this planet will be our opponent.” The Soviet Union immediately said proudly to Hugo after sensing the doubts in Hugo Sen's mind.
