Chapter 97

Ten minutes later, watching the marines skillfully take out lounge chairs, sun umbrellas, and other items, Ain fell into silence.

This is hardly a mission! It's practically a vacation!

"Come on! Ain, don't be shy!"

Ain bit her lower lip, finally made up her mind, walked into her room, changed into a relatively conservative black swimsuit, and shyly lay down on the lounge chair next to Karl.

"Is this really okay? Everyone is performing their duties, and we are here... enjoying ourselves?"

Karl smiled and said, "You'll get used to it. Besides, we are Navy officers; our primary mission is to eliminate pirates!"

"Just leave other matters to the marines. We can't possibly do everything ourselves, right?"

Ain nodded thoughtfully. Karl's words were not without reason. On Vice Admiral Tsuru's ship, she was the one doing "other matters," and now that she was on Karl's ship, she was just a bit unaccustomed to it.

"Is our mission this time to invite that Pirate Empress, the world's most beautiful woman?"

"Mm."

"Do you think she is really the most beautiful woman in the world?"

A scumbag's instinct told Karl that Ain had an ulterior motive. After a moment of thought, he said, "I've never seen her, so how would I know if she's really that good-looking?"

"Maybe she's not even as good-looking as you!"

The corners of Ain's mouth lifted slightly. She turned her head to look at Karl, her smile blooming like a flower: "Do you think I'm very good-looking?"

"Otherwise? You are the famous beauty of our 24th training camp!"

Receiving Karl's praise, Ain felt sweet inside.

Looking at Karl's profile, Ain thought to herself: You are too! The 24th training camp, no, the most handsome man in the entire Navy! ===== CHAPTER 99 =====
