We paid a few more visits to the empire’s treasury and had a few dates in the city, which was slowly returning to its normal life.
The shops and cafes opened after the people saw that the plundering did not start. One of the reasons is that the bait fleet was too busy keeping their ships afloat and repairing them for the return, and Xera was no longer interested in anything but the treasury.
“Can we go there again?”
“No.”
“But please~!”
“I said no.”
“Please~! Uuuu!” Seeing this one turn into a child was both adorable and creepy. If it was about the other girls, they would be only adorable. But it is Xera, our meathead knight who was just recently calling for a crusade against this city.
“Mother said no, which means no.”
“But pweeeeeease!” I ignored her further pleas.
“Miss Delight, where are we going today~?” (L)
“I allow you to choose the place where I will be entertained today~!” (C)
‘Damn you both…’ After seeing no support, Xera could only accept another date.
After we returned from the date, we gathered everybody at the conference room.
“Now that the majority of the treasury was cleared…” I glanced at Xera and a few keys she borrowed to lock the rooms where she stores the bags with gold.
“We need to prepare for the departure.” The duke and the crown prince sighed. The former one spent his time borrowing the paintings and sculptures from wherever he could find, while the latter was nowhere to be seen but the girls look at him with disgust so he must’ve had fun as well.
“Cheer up, everybody. The fleet would arrive tomorrow and we will return immediately. All at once.” I put an accent on the last part.
The conference ended with an almost unanimous voting for staying here, which was vetoed by the chairship.
‘Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta’
A helicopter started taking off. On its way it hit a lifeboat and went down into the sea.
‘Ta-ta-ta-ta-ta’
The second helicopter lasted not longer.
After I extinguished the fire, I checked the radars.
I was not exactly surprised to see them malfunction. All I could do is send Xera to the observation post.
During the past two days I was heating the boilers and now, after 3 hours of waiting, I was reported of an armada approaching.
I plotted the course and sent the ship back home while myself I jumped off and headed to the bait fleet to inform them of the departure. After I was done, I returned.
I entered the bridge and headed straight to the duke.
“Can Your Grace do me a favor?”
“What would you need?” He looked at me with suspicion.

“I want you to order the fleet to return home.”
“I am sorry, Miss, but I am not qualified to do it.” (D)
“I see… Then we will have to do it the hard way... In case you decide to cooperate, I will ‘suddenly’ forget of many precious things you have borrowed in this city.”
“Deal…” (D)
I took him with me and once again jumped off the ship before heading to the main fleet which finally deigned us worthy of being visited.
At the flagship we were met with vine and salted meat but we had to skip the banquet because driving a battlecruiser while being drunk… well, it is not prohibited but it is highly unrecommended.
I approached the admiral.
“Your Grace, we welcome you aboard. Miss, you are welcome as well.” (A)
“Oh my, thank you for noticing me. I am here to deliver you some good news~.”
“For example?” The welcoming business smile of the admiral became stiff.
“We conquered the capital and signed a peace treaty.” The admiral’s face was now like of a dead fish.
“Now, please return back home~.”
“We cannot, as we were ordered by…” (A)
“And I, as the Prime minister and commander of this campaign order you to turn around and return.” (D)
“Yes, Your Grace…” With the chain of command successfully restored and operation successfully completed we were now free to do whatever we want. Of course, eating salted food and drinking alcohol is only a good idea when you are on a solid ground so we had no option but to return to the ship.
After we returned to the bridge and everyone was at their positions I increased speed and we headed back home.
