I Became an Academy Mechanic Genius

133 – Bianca

It was raining on the deck, so her clothes might get wet, but Bianca didn’t care.

In the midst of rough waves, she lined up her men and began to give a speech.

“I am an incompetent admiral! “I lost Clendor’s largest battleship and put your lives in danger because of my personal feelings of avenging the Empire!”

“······.”

All of her subordinates bowed their heads.

Not only was it not enough to have been defeated by the Empire, but the leader they were following was admitting his own incompetence, so they couldn’t help but feel even more intimidated.

“But not you! Your sin is simply following an incompetent leader. There is nothing wrong with you! “Lift your head up!”

“······!”

They say they have no sin.

At Bianca’s words, her subordinates began to raise their heads one by one.

At the same time, light began to come into their previously cloudy eyes little by little.

“Today’s battle is not your defeat! Nor is Klendor’s defeat! “It’s just my personal failure, nothing has changed!”

“······”

“Of course, the enemy is strong. But straighten your shoulders. The reason Klendor was able to become the emperor of the sea was because there were strong talents like you! So, I will not forgive anyone who has lost his pride!”

Bianca finished her speech and looked around at her subordinates.

The remnant-like face from before had completely disappeared.

Bianca nodded once and led them back into the bridge.

When I returned to the lodging, new clothes were prepared again.

When he glanced at the sentry, he explained.

“The captain ordered us to prepare new clothes. “And he told me to get ready because we’re going to eat in 20 minutes.”

“······.”

Bianca nodded his head.

Then I took off my wet clothes and changed into new ones.

Because there was a high-temperature airflow generator (dryer) nearby, I was able to quickly dry my body and clothes.

– Jump up.

When dinner time came, Bianca was guided by the guard to the restaurant.

In the process, we naturally got to see various facilities inside the battleship, and Bianca and her subordinates felt overwhelmed every time.

But he kept his expression as low as possible so as not to look intimidated.

That was when we arrived at the battleship’s restaurant.

“······.”

It was spectacular.

From noble mtl dot com

Is it possible to have a restaurant of this size on board a ship?

Of course, it was much narrower than a restaurant on flat land, but being able to create such a space within the ship was a great feat in itself.

In addition, there were many different types of food and the food was cooked and served in real time.

“Are you here? “Please sit this way.”

At that time, Ed, who was sitting at the head table, raised her body and greeted her.

Bianca, who found Ed, immediately bowed lightly, and Ed also smiled and slightly bowed his head.

-Jeobeok…Jeobeok….

Like that, Bianca went to the seat next to Ed.

At the same time, Bianca’s subordinates went to an empty table and each put their butts on the chairs.

Approximately, Ed’s subordinates were sitting at the table on the left, and Bianca’s subordinates were sitting at the table on the right.

“Rest in peace. “If it’s not enough, I can tell you at any time.”

With those words, Ed started eating.

Without any speeches or congratulatory remarks.

Bianca could not help but be embarrassed.

‘···I thought you would humiliate us…?’

Isn’t this the perfect situation to mock themselves?

If the situation were the opposite, I would have done the opposite.

Something like ‘celebrating today’s victory’ is possible.

On the contrary, it was fortunate that it ended that way.

“······.”

But Edgar Fix did not make any mockery.

It seemed like they had invited them purely for a meal.

Bianca, who was so confused, took a spoonful of her soup and put it in her mouth.

It was delicious.

‘Now that I think about it…’

However, all the soldiers were eating the same food.

A noble captain and a commoner are eating the same type of food.

This was bound to be a refreshing shock to Bianca.

Even he, who takes great care of his subordinates, takes it for granted that they eat more luxurious food, but Ed did not seem to complain at all even though he ate the same food as his subordinates.

Rather, it seemed like he took this for granted.

“Khahahahaha!”

“I’ll win next time, so we’ll see!”

Moreover, his subordinates were naturally laughing and chatting.

We are taking this situation for granted.

“Why don’t you eat it? Doesn’t it fit your taste?”

At that time, Ed glanced at his plate and spoke.

Bianca answered, shaking her head.

“No… The food is delicious. I’m just… Curious. “I thought it would humiliate us a little.”

“····Humiliation?”

However, Ed’s answer was unexpected.

It was as if he had not even thought about such a thing.

I burst out laughing without realizing it.

“Phew. hahahahaha!”

“·····?”

Ed looked at Bianca with an absurd expression.

Bianca, who eventually stopped laughing, smiled bitterly and said.

“No. I guess it’s a lack of qualifications. “Otherwise, you might be a pure person.”

With those words, Bianca began her meal.

Once I confirmed that Ed Fix had no intention of anything, my nervous mind eased.

Ed’s soldiers were busy eating and talking among themselves without paying any attention to their own soldiers.

He gathered on deck and made a speech out of fear that his humiliated subordinates would suffer a mental blow, but Edgar Fix did not seem to have any intention of doing so.

“Um…Captain.”

At that time.

Grick approached and spoke to Ed.

Grick said as Ed glanced at him.

“I will deliver it now. “Patrick’s birthday cake.”

“Ah. Okay. They also add bonuses. “Did you say you were expecting your second child soon?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. “Please put twice as much as the actual amount.”

Grick received Ed’s order, bowed his head politely, and then retreated.

And after a while.

We started celebrating the birthday of a soldier named Patrick with a cake with candles.

For Bianca, the sight could not help but be a refreshing shock.

Is this place crazy to celebrate a soldier’s birthday?

Celebrating birthdays is usually a culture reserved for nobles.

‘What the hell is this place…’

It wasn’t just that.

The count, Edgar Fix, knew the family history of a commoner.

I know that this is my second birth.

‘····I am.’

This was also a culture shock for Bianca.

She thought she was good to her subordinates, but compared to Edgar Fix, she was nothing.

“Greek.”

At that time, Ed called his lieutenant.

Soon, Greek came closer to receive Ed’s orders, and Ed took a container of food and ordered it to be served directly onto the empty plates of the Klendor soldiers.

This was in consideration of the Clendor soldiers who wanted to eat more food, but could not go to receive their rations because they were being noticed.

“Yes, I understand.”

Once Ed’s order was given.

The food distribution team personally picked up the food container and began distributing food to the Clendor soldiers.

As Bianca watched the scene, she could feel that she was completely mistaken.

Edgar Fix didn’t act out kindness, it was just ingrained in him.

He was merciless towards his enemies, but he cared for his own people better than anyone else.

“Thank you for your hospitality. Me and my subordinates. “Everyone ate well.”

“Nothing to say. “If there is anything uncomfortable, please convey it to the sentry at any time.”

“Yes.”

After finishing the meal, Bianca thanked Ed and returned to her lodgings.

The heat she had tried so hard to shake off began to heat up again.

Edgar Fix was his ideal man who was perfect in everything.

As he thought about the life being cared for by him, he felt a pressure being pressed against his chest and his heart pounded.

“Ah…”

And for some reason, tears came to my eyes.

This is because the birthday party from earlier keeps reminding me of it.

For a while, Bianca was confused as to why she was like this.

What is it about a birthday party for commoners that keeps making me cry?

“······Tom.”

Then, something from the past came to mind.

‘Tom’, one of her own servants.

Although he was a commoner, he was a kind and kind friend.

He was a servant who always took care of him, said only kind words, and truly cared for him.

-Her Royal Highness… Make sure you survive…

But Tom lost his life trying to protect himself.

The moment when you are exposed to a sea monster due to an unexpected accident. He threw himself to save himself.

But no one mourned his death.

He disappeared in solitude without any funeral or memorial service.

This is because Tom was treated as just one of his toys and tools.

-Yoo, the nanny… The nanny doesn’t wake up…

The nanny was also the same.

I collapsed due to overwork and was not in good physical condition, but no one cared.

Instead, he just told me to get up and get to work quickly and not to act like a child.

To nobles, commoners were lowly beings who could not even use mana, something between humans and beasts.

‘If only Tom had lived…’

Bianca thought.

What would it have been like if Tom had been alive?

If Edgar had met an owner like Fix, wouldn’t he have been smiling happily as he celebrated his birthday?

“Black…Huh…Huhuh…”

When she thought of that, tears flowed from her eyes.

Bianca, who was born with an external and internal personality, actually had very delicate sensibilities.

He cares about people to the extent that the death of a commoner is still unnoticed.

“Huh… Hmm…”

Maybe that’s why I kept thinking about Edgar Fix.

Sturdy both on the outside and inside. I could see him being harsh towards his enemies but warm and kind towards his own people.

He was excited to be hugged by him at least once.
