Chapter 166

What is the commander's love like? Actually, Lin Ge has always been very interested in this, because Mikasa had previously introduced him to a story about a divine person.

But because of schoolwork issues, training issues, commission issues, and so on, I have never had time to learn about such stories.

Then this time, under the encouragement of Prince Ou Gen Qin Wang, and furthermore, the current commission has already been led by Guanghui, so he also has extra time to resolve the doubts he has always had.

When Qin Ge and Prince Ou Gen Qin Wang entered the library together, the library attendant Mei Ling was sitting at the library counter, holding a book in her hands, reading it with great relish.

It seemed she sensed someone's arrival; Mei Ling lifted her head and saw Qin Ge, as well as Prince Ou Gen Qin Wang standing beside him.

"Qin Ge Instructor, you've come to the library to read books again; what kind of books do you want to read today?" Because Qin Ge has been compiling teaching materials since last year, he often goes to the library, so he and Mei Ling are already acquaintances; now whenever he comes, Mei Ling greets him warmly.

"Uh... I want to look for some books about the relationship between commanders and ship girls." Qin Ge hesitated a moment, but still told Mei Ling the truth.

"Hehe, I didn't expect our Qin Ge Instructor to also be stirred by spring feelings, taking a fancy to that ship girl of our fleet?" Mei Ling said with a laugh, and finally glanced at Qin Ge behind Prince Ou Gen Qin Wang, saying, 'Could it be him?'

"Uh... no, that's not it." Qin Ge quickly waved his hands and said, 'I want to study the strength of the relationship between commanders and ship girls, and its impact on the battlefield situation.'

"Hehe, it seems the words of someone who talks strategy are really different; just talking about love can actually be said to affect the battlefield situation, admirable." Mei Ling said teasingly.

"Uh..." Qin Ge was instantly speechless.

Alright, I'm not teasing you anymore." Mei Ling laughed, "Regarding the books you're looking for about the relationship between commanders and shipgirls, they are in the commander and shipgirls' daily life area on the right side of the first floor; just go in and you'll see them."

Okay, thank you." Qin Ge nodded quickly and led Ou Gen Qin Wang over.

Mei Ling saw Qin Ge's somewhat flustered figure and couldn't help but smile, "Wishing you success, Instructor Qin Ge."

Although Qin Ge indeed heard those words, he merely raised his hand and waved it, then quickened his pace and left the library counter.

Hehe, Commander, why do I get the feeling you're scared of this question?" Ou Gen Qin Wang said.

This isn't fear; it's being embarrassed about being embarrassed." Qin Ge whispered to Ou Gen Qin Wang, "After all, talking about matters between men and women is… well, private. So speaking so openly like this makes me a bit embarrassed…"

Oh, I see, the Commander is shy after all. I never expected such a tall and stern man to be shy when facing emotional matters—truly eye-opening." Ou Gen Qin Wang appeared to have an epiphany, but his eyes held a hint of teasing.

With her intelligence, how could she not see what kind of person Qin Ge is? By saying this, she neither reveals herself nor seems overly teasing, and it won't increase Qin Ge's dislike toward her—why not?

It's natural for anyone encountering this to feel shy, but some have thicker skin and thus indirectly overlook it, while others are more delicate and sensitive, so they pay special attention." Qin Ge hurriedly said to Ou Gen Qin Wang.

So the Commander belongs to that more sensitive type, huh?" Ou Gen Qin Wang said with a chuckle.

Cough, cough, I suppose so." Qin Ge spoke vaguely, and the two arrived at the area Mei Ling had mentioned.

Apparently to avoid Ou Gen Qin Wang's questioning, Qin Ge casually picked up a book and began reading, quickly entering a focused state. As for Ou Gen Qin Wang beside him, seeing Xu Fei enter that state, he also refrained from speaking to disturb him, instead taking a book from the shelf and reading it himself.

The issue of feelings between commanders and shipgirls has existed since the first batch of commanders and shipgirls.

Although shipgirls possess the power of warships, when they are not activating Ship Equipment they are no different from ordinary human girls; only in later research was it discovered that their reproductive systems differ from humans', while other aspects show little difference.

Thus they resemble the most perfect aspect of human women—beautiful, noble, cute, etc. —and describing them with such adjectives feels insufficient to capture their entirety.

They seem like incarnations of miracles, embodying humanity's yearning for the finest aspect of women.

Therefore, after many commanders and shipgirls have engaged in Cooperation for a long time, they become more familiar with each other, and love arises between them. This love can be very complex, yet also very simple.

Humans always have an appreciation for beauty, so as the embodiment of beauty, shipgirls naturally attract the pursuit of human commanders. Moreover, shipgirls are born that way and remain so regardless of the passage of time.

Consequently, this near-eternal beauty causes most commanders to flock to them.

Moreover, many develop feelings between them. After all, humans are not plants—who can be emotionless? On the battlefield, having shared life-and-death struggles together for humanity's survival, over time there surely exists a feeling of mutual trust and reliance.

And this feeling of mutual trust and reliance is actually the foundation of love, the budding of all emotions.

Countless commanders and shipgirls walk together holding this belief. Yet here another new problem extends: the number of shipgirls a commander possesses is not singular; it could be two, or many.

Thus another issue arises: if two or multiple shipgirls simultaneously like the commander, what should be done?

What should be done then?" Qin Ge, upon reading this point in the book, couldn't help but become more curious; after silently reciting a sentence in his mind, he promptly continued looking downward.

This is the viewpoint proposed by the first-generation commander; exactly who it was can no longer be verified, but now all commanders would thank him for proposing this view.

He said: Although a shipgirl is an ordinary girl when she lowers her Ship Equipment, she has always been, from beginning to end, a weapon in the eyes of humanity.

Because shipgirls are weapons, humans can possess many weapons; likewise, humans can also love many weapons. After all, many people love knives, guns, and swords, so it is only natural for a commander to like shipgirls.

Therefore, this initial commander, under everyone's blessings, formed an Oath relationship with the second and third shipgirls, and others followed suit.

Beautifully named the commander and shipgirl Oath, how could it be called bigamy?

Qin Ge, upon seeing this, was greatly shocked…
