Part 4
"Excuse me."
In the prefabricated building that would be built as the office. Atago entered the room and saluted the Admiral.
"I have put you through trouble, haven't I?" Said a man who sat lightly on a chair.
"I'm glad that the convoy fleet was safe. What about the destroyers?"
"One is heavily damaged. The rest is slightly damaged."
"Let her rest in the dock. She's a praiseworthy ship. Please bring the date and time for the Equipment Utilization Permission and Sortie Permission written application back to me. Don’t look inside, I’ll sign it."
After saying that, he glanced at Atago.
"Anyway, you’re preparing it right?"
“Yes.”
Atago presented a bunch of documents which she held behind her back.
The admiral signed the documents one to another. Atago’s staring at that situation while smiling.
“Thanks to that, looks like the 14th DesDiv have deepened their unity further.”
“That’s great.”
“That’s because Admiral is extremely concerned about Akebono-chan’s solitude.”
“It’s because Destroyer Division is a vital point of a Naval Base, isn’t it?”
“You can’t ask for an office bombardment anymore, right?”
“Leaving it as it was without doing anything is the most depressing thing. And then, it was such a good opportunity to be spoiled by the battleship and aircraft carrier.”
He returned the signed documents to Atago.
"I’ll leave it to you for sending that to the higher ups."
“I understand. You’ve received a call just now and it’s on hold.”
"Pick it up and hand it over. How about a meal with two people this time? "
“Didn't you tell Tatsuta-san the same thing during the other day? No, thank you.”
Atago flat refused and said that while went out of the office.
The admiral shrugged his shoulder then picked up the phone receiver. After shutting the wiretap off through some secret devices, it's then connected.
"... Ah, it's me. I'm helped by Kagerou's arrival. I heard that she's been producing good results. With her, our Destroyer Division is perfect.... What? Return her? That's stupid, she's already used with YokoBase water. I won't return her even if you say so."
He laughed, then suppressed his voice.
"I have something to ask. It's about Abyssal Fleet's area of activity. The recent fleet raid’s course shouldn't have been attacked in the first place. I managed to overcome the crisis, but... how about you? ...Ah, as expected."
The admiral nodded slightly to the other party on the phone.
"The Abyssal Fleet is approaching, huh? They've resumed their activities.... Yes, I know, the important person is going on an official trip there. At that time."
The phone receiver hasn't been put down. Their conversation continued.
Yokosuka waves basked by the sunlight shone glitteringly. It's coming to the attracting pier, soaking it.
The sea was still, calm as it was.
To be continued.
Note : YEAH FINALLY THE FIRST VOLUME IS OVER. But there's still an afterwords by the author and last illustration by NOCO. I'll publish them separately from this. Also, if you noticed that last paragraph [Yokosuka waves basked by the sunlight shone glitteringly] and remember something like [Hi no hikari abite yuramekitatsu Kagerou no you ni], yes, that's right. This is the reference for that great song. God damn TOM's songs really have trivial references everywhere.
Anyway don't worry I'll absolutely continue to work on this novel since Kagerou is my wife!
