The Whole Empire Thinks The Admiral Wants To Steal The Bride - Extra 1.2

Extra 1.2 – The First Real Meeting of His Majesty and the Marshal　

　☆☆、Chapter 26 – The Secret Love Story of the Fran Empire (Part 2)☆☆、
　　
　　The reason why Joshua was arranged to become a glorious logistics mecha soldier and stay away from the battlefield where life and death are uncertain was not because of his special identity and special care, but because the original age in his military license chip had been tampered with.

　　Even a country as inhumane as the House Empire would not push fourteen or fifteen year old children to the front line.

　　The title of this logistics mecha soldier can be divided into three parts: “logistics”, “mecha” and “soldier”.

　　”Soldier” is their identity, “Mecha” is their work partner. Only “logistics” is their real work content.

　　•=|=•

　　Joshua carefully cleaned the training ground, collecting small mecha fragments one by one. They were made of special metal materials with sharp edges, and he had to concentrate when picking them up to ensure that his gloves and fingers under the gloves would not be scratched.

　　——Hundreds and thousands of fragments like this were scattered on the simple open-air training ground, which looked very spectacular from a distance.

　　This small mecha is a must-have training model for all kinds of military academies and military training camps. It is about a quarter of the size of a real mecha and has little attack power, so it will not cause serious injuries to personnel.

　　Today is an exception.

　　The still-unknown “Mr. Don’t Care” and his new friend “Mr. Unknown” came out and did a cool practical demonstration.

　　Perhaps it was because the demonstration was too realistic. When the only lieutenant of Shizukumi Star, Admiral Shizukumi Star, arrived at the scene, the two small mechas had been completely destroyed.

　　Well, how should he put it…at least the broken mechs were good enough to skip the repair step and go directly to the garbage dump.

　　The second lieutenant said: Damn it, just pay back all the money.

　　The two instigators were each fined three months’ salary and were forced to honestly participate in voluntary labor.

　　At this time, they were near Joshua and Leslie, each carrying an identical collection and isolation bag, and they did not look discouraged at all- in fact, Glenn’s expression was almost desperate, but Joshua calmly ignored it.

　　He had not yet foreseen that the sergeant was a poor fellow.

　　Joshua looked at the scene from a distance for a few seconds, lowered his head silently, put a diamond-shaped fragment into the isolation bag, and whispered: “Too strong.”

　　Both the black-haired young man and his friend were too strong.

　　Joshua was confident that he had a talent for mecha operation. Apart from the limitations of his age and stature, and his physical fitness, he would not lose to any Alpha recruit of the same period in driving the simulator.

　　But recruits are just recruits after all, and the simulation cabin is just a simulation cabin after all. This kind of terrifying actual combat drill was the first time Joshua had seen it.

　　The incredibly powerful collisions, the merciless exchanges of fire, the smooth movements and flights, all played back before his eyes frame by frame like a movie.

　　He didn’t like the gap in strength between himself and others.

　　Joshua stroked his arm gently and frowned in dissatisfaction- too thin.

　　He looked at his slender, youthful calves again- they were too short.

　　The above knowledge made him quickly come to the conclusion:

　　Haha, thin and short.

　　Joshua: “…”

　　Leslie saw his companion’s expression from afar, and ran over with some concern: “Hey, Joe, are you okay?”

　　”Fine.”

　　Leslie looked like he didn’t believe it, and Joshua ignored him.

　　He was really fine, and he would be fine even if he had any problem.

　　His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Empire was successfully KOed by himself, and he accelerated the cleaning process in grief and anger.

　　This was the first time that the young Joshua clearly realized the gap between him and Glenn. At that time, he was young and ignorant, and his eyes were only impressed by the other party’s powerful strength.

　　Before those ambiguous feelings grew like spring grass, he had already decided to make a change.

　　His pride and self-esteem could not tolerate such a huge gap, even though that gap was mixed with the effects of gender and age and only turned into an abyss in a specific period of time.

　　He really didn’t want to accept it.

　　Not even for a minute or a second.

　　•=|=•

　　The coldness of Shizukumi Planet in December was far colder than Joshua had ever imagined.

　　The furs and heating facilities that comforted people in November were like magic that failed at zero point, becoming so useless overnight that it was a pity.

　　In this freezing cold wave, the Emperor of the House Empire regained his mania – a team of several hundred mecha soldiers quietly left the Port of Johnson on the border between the two countries and sneaked into the territory of Fran with the help of an insider.

　　Their target was the Mecha Research Institute branch in the Kenny galaxy system.

　　The Kenny Galaxy is a “three-nothing” galaxy in the Fran Empire with no fame, no special products, and no tourist attractions. It had been unknown for decades, and even the interstellar weather forecast could only be ranked at the end of the scroll bar. Its marginalization is quite shocking.

　　The only known feat of this small galaxy occurred three months ago.

　　A female Beta researcher named Lux sent a message to the headquarters, claiming that she had made a breakthrough in the research of advanced mechas. The reserved research report was quickly transmitted to the capital planet. Once circulated, the entire Imperial Research Institute was in an uproar.

　　Lux, who just turned 30 this year, studies mecha dynamics. She did well in school and holds a PhD from the University of Kenney Galaxy, which is not very prestigious.

　　This female Beta was originally an ordinary assistant researcher who was mediocre and down-to-earth. She was considered serious, but had no innovative spirit and did not show much motivation for work.

　　Most people in the Kenny galaxy were like this.

　　However, one night in the middle of last month, Lux stayed in the lab all night because of a quarrel with her boyfriend and used up most of the rolls of paper towels in the lab.

　　She opened the test program in a half-awake state and entered a reverse hypothesis in anger.

　　She just wanted to find something to do, she had to forget about that bastard for a while. Then she fell into a deep sleep.

　　Three hours later, Lux was awakened by the beep of the test system. She rubbed her red and swollen eyes and stared blankly at the green test result on the screen:

　　Through, the performance is improved by 11% and the consumable rate is improved by 7%.

　　”…What a great number,” Lux muttered, holding his eye sockets.

　　Wait… good numbers?!

　　The female researcher Beta sat on the round stool in the laboratory for more than three minutes before she jumped up in ecstasy and screamed loudly.

　　——This is the gift from the God of the Universe, it is the grace of the God of the Universe to save her from the quagmire of emotional pain!

　　Lux was so excited that tears welled up in her eyes. She threw herself into work without even drinking a sip of coffee. She was full of energy and her efficiency shocked herself.

　　That night, she actually produced a research report of more than 14,000 words in just six hours!

　　•=|=•

　　Thus, Ms. Lux of the Kenny galaxy was like a little sparrow with beautiful tail feathers, and she transformed gorgeously with the blessing of strange luck.

　　She dumped her cheating Beta boyfriend, started learning how to put on makeup and dress up, and finally got the job offer from the Imperial Mecha Research Institute headquarters as she wished.

　　The goal of the House Empire was to kidnap this lucky Ms. Beta.

　　Unfortunately, the troops assigned to the escort mission were from the Shizukumi military base, led by Sergeant Glenn who had just been seconded.

　　At this time, the black-haired sergeant had not yet developed the poker face that he would have ten years later. His smile was friendly and hearty, and his black eyes seemed to be able to see into the depths of other people’s souls.

　　He held the communicator and said in a warm voice, “Hello, before arriving at the next handover site, please do not change any operating instructions of the starship, whether it is temperature or lighting, okay?”

　　The starship pilot was a young Omega with a certificate. Even though he had used a sufficient amount of inhibitors, his cheeks were still flushed with excitement and his eyes were bright: “Okay…Okay!”

　　Glenn smiled and nodded, and asked the logistics soldiers to check the starship’s supply one last time.

　　•=|=•

　　Twenty minutes later, the proud young Crown Prince Joshua and his partner Leslie were dragged out from the corner of the supply storage room by Glenn, holding their collars like two wilted chicks.

　　The sergeant’s face was dark, and his tone was unusually stern: “Logistics soldiers? Why didn’t you leave the starship within the specified time?”

　　Joshua shrank his neck and rubbed his hands, biting his lower lip in annoyance.

　　He really got implicated this time.

　　Leslie, who was implicated by him, was even more cowardly than him. He would sniff his nose from time to time and explained tremblingly, “We didn’t mean to do that. We didn’t know the door of the cold storage room would be locked!”

　　Yes, if Glenn had gone a little later, they might have frozen to death…

　　Shizukumi is located at the border of the Kenny Galaxy and the Kasami Galaxy, and is the only way from the Kenny Galaxy to the Capital Star. This military planet seemed to have a good geographical location, but there was a wide interstellar gap in front of it, and they are now in a state of nowhere.

　　In other words, since they had left Shizukumi Star, he had no way of letting the two of them change ports and return midway.

　　Glenn sighed helplessly and said in a deep voice, “I’ll take you to the lounge. You stay here and don’t run around.”

　　The two “Beta Logistics” who had caused the trouble quickly nodded in agreement.

　　”We promise not to move!” Leslie promised sincerely.

　　”……” Glenn was amused by him and said helplessly, “That’s not necessary. Except for meal time, try not to leave the room. The structure of the starship is more complicated than you can imagine.”

　　Joshua: “…” Is this the second time you’re worried we’re getting lost?

　　Seeing that the atmosphere was relaxing, Glenn wanted to give a few more instructions when the Omega pilot suddenly came over.

　　The young Omega had fair skin and the blush on his face showed no sign of fading. His lips trembled slightly as he mustered up the courage to stammer, “Hello, Sergeant, could you please give me your private number?”

　　Joshua and Leslie: “…” Openly chatting up?!

　　Unfortunately, the person he was facing was Glenn.

　　Sergeant Glenn looked handsome and said calmly, “Please do not discuss personal matters during the mission. This is against the Imperial military regulations. Thank you.”

　　That’s a bit harsh.

　　Omega’s face turned pale, but he looked calm. He lowered his head, whispered “sorry”, and fled the scene at a rapid pace.

　　Joshua hung his head and curled his lips in disdain.

　　Shallow.

　　——Love is not just the attraction between two sexes or the infatuation between two faces.

　　No matter what others thought, he would definitely find someone like the one Johnson described.

　　——His appearance, voice, smile, and tears all make your soul tremble.

　　…How wonderful that would be.
