The morning light has just risen from the end of the sea, piercing the dark curtain that covers the night sky and casting a warm light onto the sparkling sea.

Bismarck, who had stayed in the prayer room, crept to his feet in the early morning, carefully preparing to get up from the warm bed and leave.

Looking at the side face that was still sleeping under the covers, Bismarck sighed slightly, and quietly withdrew the hand that Jiqi had grasped, his delicate face flushed like a sunset. Perhaps, as Tirpitz told her, love sometimes comes unexpectedly, and even though you are not fully prepared, you already have the heart to accept it.

Although there was no formal marriage proposal last night, and there was no vigorous vow, Bismarck's right hand still appeared the ring of vows that she had longed for and hoped to obtain by winning the game.

This ring was exchanged for her exploits many years ago, just to prevent some admirals from taking the trouble to sign a contract with her, so she would wear it every time she went to the front to eliminate a lot of unnecessary trouble. Later, when he arrived at the academy, the ring gradually lost its usefulness. After all, the academy is full of midshipmen who have not yet graduated, and no one dares to hope that they can sign a contract with themselves, a ship girl with countless meritorious achievements. As a result, the ring became an ordinary ornament, which Bismarck threw into his ship's space.

But in the end it had its true owner, and when the Admiral had been able to make Bismarck fall in love, she had found the most comforting comfort in the night of yesterday, when she had felt so frustrated and sad, and in that warm embrace she had found the place she had been seeking. Although she failed to achieve the status of a wedding ship by virtue of her own strength, Bismarck felt extremely satisfied with this situation, as if the entire town guard mansion was a warm home for her, which gave her a strong sense of belonging.

Perhaps, I will never be able to do without this gentle fool in the future. Bismarck smiled and stretched out his hand, brushing the side of Jiqi's face a little bit, feeling the warmth from the palm of his hand.

"...... Bismarck? Jiqi blinked in confusion as he looked at the figure sitting sideways on the edge of the bed, revealing a silly smile.

"Division...... Commander? Are you awake? Bismarck was like a frightened thrush, trembling and trying to withdraw his outstretched hand, but unexpectedly, Jiqi, who had woken up, suddenly grabbed his slender wrist, and there was no sense of letting go.

"Yes, as soon as I woke up, I found a cat that had eaten and wiped clean like it had run away." Ji Qi replied with a wicked smile, looking at her red and shy face in a daze, her dodgy eyes reflected in her pupils.

"Talent...... I didn't want to run away, Commander, don't talk nonsense. Bismarck whispered a defense, but with unbelievable hesitation in his tone.

"But it's only so early, where does Bismarck want to go?" Jiqi pulled the soft girl closer to the warm quilt again, looked at her hot face and asked softly.

"I ...... I," Bismarck stammered, not knowing how to answer the other's question. She actually wanted to sneak back to her room while everyone was not paying attention, although she didn't know why she didn't want others to know about this thing that should have been announced openly, but there was always a trace of fear in her heart, afraid that after she became a wedding ship, other people would look at her with strange eyes.

Especially if she doesn't want to meet Yamato, the other party is naturally qualified to wear the Ring of Oath as the winner of this game, and she is just a defeated second place, what right does she have to get the ring on her hand.

Thinking of this, she sighed slightly, lowered her head to look at the wedding ring on her finger, and was silent.

"Still worried?" Jiqi looked at the girl who didn't speak and asked softly, he knew that although Bismarck had always appeared in front of everyone with a strong appearance, the other side hidden in the darkness was extremely soft, like a poor little girl, in need of encouragement and care from others.

"Hmm." Bismarck buried himself in Jiqi's chest and nodded slightly. "Because I don't think I'm qualified to wear this ring, Yamato is the winner of this competition, and I, no." In the end, the girl's voice gradually became weaker, and she lost her former self-confidence.

"There is no right or wrong in this kind of thing, and there is no qualification or disqualification for this kind of thing, all that is needed is to like each other." He knew that Bismarck, after yesterday's defeat, had been suffering from gains and losses, and had completely lost his usual iron blood and pride. "So you don't have to worry, Bismarck, because I've been behind you, silently watching you." He pressed the girl's soft cheek to his cheek and spoke vigorously.

Bismarck looked at Jiqi's serious face, and nodded silently for a long time. Those red eyes no longer flickered and dodged, but were as determined as ever. Although she Bismarck lost to Yamato, it does not mean that she will be afraid of it, or even have the courage to face the other party. Because she has this ring that Jiqi put on her hand, and she also has the great encouragement of her beloved. These are like a pair of invisible hands that have been giving her support and strength behind her.

"I see, Commander." Bismarck nodded vigorously, and there was no more confusion in his eyes. "I will never back down because of defeat again, because I am Bismarck, the Bismarck who inherited the crystallization of German technology and will never be defeated." Her voice was not loud, but at this time it exuded an unquestionable majesty.

"This is my Bismarck, the girl who is always full of confidence and will never stop because of frustration." Jiqi scratched Bismarck's nose and smiled happily.

He had always feared that Bismarck would remain in the shadows because of this defeat, sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire. But now it seems that such worries are completely unnecessary, because she is a battleship with the name of Bismarck of Germany, who has been given the name of the iron-blooded prime minister.

"So can the Admiral let me go? I'll have to go to the office to sort out the documents later. Bismarck said with a cold face, and there was no longer the softness and hesitation in his tone, as if the shy Persian cat had once again stirred up his spirits and become proud.

"Huh?" Jiqi opened his mouth wide, looking at the girl in front of him in disbelief who said that her face would change, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. "Yes...... But it's still early, so there's no need to go so early, right? He looked at the faint light of the sky beyond the heavy curtains, trying to make an excuse to spend time with the soft cat.

But this beautiful idea can only be an unrealistic fantasy after all, Bismarck squeezed Jiqi's wrist hard, and slowly removed his paws in his cries of pain, and his red pupils shrunk like a cat that whispered angrily.

"It's not too early for the commander, and if I mess around with the commander any longer, the official documents of the entire town guard mansion will not be processed in the morning." Bismarck sneered, with a cunning smile that seemed to see through everything. She naturally knows what kind of thoughts Jiqi is holding on to lie in bed now, after all, she has been bullied last night. Therefore, after she has regained her former majesty, she must teach this commander who dares to commit a crime a good lesson, and let her know what is called the tsundere of the Persian cat.

"Yes...... But Bismarck, you ...... last night," a pain came from his wrist before he could finish his prayers, and all his next words turned into a monotonous cry of pain, and there was no possibility of saying all the words.

"Commander, what do you think happened to me last night?" Bismarck asked triumphantly, the hand holding Jiqi's wrist showing no sign of letting go. Now she is anti-customer, and she is no longer the soft cat of last night.

Although it has to be said that she enjoyed the strange feeling of last night, in order to maintain her majesty at the moment, Bismarck also had to expel the images that appeared in her mind and gave rise to the ripples in it, and hid those charms deep in her heart.

"Nothing, nothing." Jiqi looked at the girl in front of him with a wry smile, helplessly watching his sweet dream shatter in an instant. thought that he could enjoy Bismarck's soft side silently all the time, but he didn't expect that in the end, it could only be a bubble that could be broken at the touch of a button. But that's fine, at least you don't have to see such a heart-wrenching Bismarck, you don't need to see her lost soul, because Bismarck last night was not the real her, and the current Bismarck is the girl who will never fail.

"By the way, now I'm also the wedding ship of the town guard." Speaking of this, Bismarck's face flushed slightly, she looked at the ring on her hand, coughed a few times to hide her shyness, and continued: "So I also have the responsibility of accompanying the commander in the future, of course, these are all based on the commander's good behavior, so ...... If the commander wants to, he must be obedient. The more Bismarck's voice became quieter and quieter, and although she was now full of confidence, she still felt deeply ashamed to say these words.

But as she said, she has now put on a ring and become the wedding ship of the town guard's mansion, and naturally she has to take the corresponding responsibility, although she is ashamed, but she must say it, otherwise this stupid person with a bad smile will take advantage of her softness to gain an inch, and the self who was bullied last night is the best proof. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but snort coldly.

"So the commander should think about how to behave in the future to make me satisfied." The tsundere Bismarck said as he panicked towards the door, as if trying to take advantage of this only opportunity to escape. After all, as a wedding ship, she can't treat the commander with a straight face like in the past, but once she shows a soft look, this villain will definitely climb up the pole and use all means to leave herself.

So Bismarck could only take this only opportunity to get out, otherwise he would definitely be ridiculed fiercely by his otaku sister and lose his majesty as a sister. Thinking of this, Bismarck, who walked to the door, looked at Jiqi who showed a pitiful look, gritted his teeth, or opened the door and left, leaving Jiqi with a broken dream to look helplessly at the empty room, sighing.

It seems that this revolution has not yet succeeded, and I still need to work hard, Jiqi smiled weakly in his heart, looking at the hidden door and crying with a sad face.
