Chapter 255: Nagato's Invitation
"Just think about it, as a freshman in an academy, you can change the outcome of the entire Donghuang's battle against the Siren Tide. If such a person were placed in Sakura Empire, how would you decide?" Mikasa said to Nagato with a smile.
"Of course we should train him, because he will have a big stage in the future," said Nagato.
Mikasa smiled slightly, "If his existence alarms the other camps. And the other camps think that he not only belongs to the Sakura Empire, but also to the Azur Lane, what will the Sakura Empire do then?"
"I can only..." Nagato understood all of a sudden, "I can only make his heart firmly belong to the Sakura Empire, but I can't make his identity belong to the Sakura Empire."
"That's right, so Donghuang is taking this step now, rather than letting his existence be discovered and feared by other camps. If other camps clash with Donghuang camp, it will be fatal to other camps.
It would be better to put it out in the open and let every camp know that Donghuang exists. This will be a very important opportunity for him and his camp. "Mikasa said with a smile.
"The fact that you can think of this proves that you are mature now and have the strong heart that a true leader should have to make decisions."
Nagato blushed when Mikasa praised him , and then said to Mikasa in a dull tone, "But isn't this too unfair to him? He values his own camp so much, but his own camp uses him as a bargaining chip."
"Is it fair?" Mikasa shook her head. "There is no absolute fairness in this world. Everyone needs to play their own role. He is a commander, and his mission is to destroy the Sirens.
As for the others, although Donghuang is now using him as a bargaining chip, Donghuang has not betrayed him, and I think he is smart enough to know that this is a win-win situation, and it is impossible to generalize. "
"Is that so? It seems that I still have a lot to ." Nagato thought.
"Haha, even I'm still learning now, so you naturally can't fall behind, Nagato." Mikasa said with a smile.
"Yes, Mikasa-senpai." Nagato nodded.
“Haha, let’s not talk about these heavy topics. I found a lot of interesting things in Donghuang this time.
In fact, it was not me who found it, but Qin Ge who found it. He gave it to me, and I brought it back specially to give it to you." Mikasa said with a smile.
"Oh, that's not good. It's a gift for Lady Mikasa." Nagato refused.
"You also know that what I like most is models, so I kept all the things related to models, and there are some things I think you will like more than me." Mikasa smiled.
Then she took out a shadow puppet, a puppet, and a dough figurine from her ship's space, and the appearance of these three things were all made according to Mikasa's appearance.
These things were naturally made by Qin Ge in the old street at that time, because his ship girls all felt very fun, and he naturally thought of the instructors in the academy who might not have played them either, so he made some as gifts for the instructors in the academy.
As for their appearance, these were pictures Qin Ge found in the Ship Girl Manual and asked the boss to compare them. So although there are some differences, the differences are not big.
"It's Senior Mikasa!" Nagato's eyes lit up and he said while looking at those things.
"Yes, I think you will like these more, so I brought them to you. I believe you will take good care of them, right?" Mikasa said with a smile.
"Yes, I, I like it very much. Thank you, Mikasa-senpai." Nagato took the thing from Mikasa's hand and said to Mikasa with gratitude.
"I'm just offering this as a token of my appreciation, as long as you like it."
Then Mikasa and Nagato's topic became more relaxed, so Mikasa began to talk about some interesting things she had experienced in Donghuang, and Nagato occasionally told Mikasa about what she had encountered in the shrine. The two of them were both talkers and listeners, and this scene was quite harmonious.
But good times always come to an end. As the sky gradually darkened, Mikasa stood up.
"It's getting late and I should go. I'll come another day." Mikasa said to Nagato.
"Mikasa-senpai, aren't you going to stay for dinner? Fuso should be preparing it by now," Nagato said.
"No, they went out to play today. I should have been the one to accompany them, but since they came to your place, I have to go back early. After all, they are our guests." Mikasa said with a smile.
" Okay." Nagato nodded, and then said to Mikasa as if he had thought of something, "If there is a chance, please bring Commander Qin Ge here. I want to meet him and do some divination for him."
"Divination?" Mikasa nodded, "No problem, I'll tell him about this."
Mikasa then said goodbye to Nagato and walked towards her home.
Qin Ge and others also completed today's shopping accompanied by Zuikaku and Shokaku, and the group returned home together.
At night, Mikasa told Qin Ge that Nagato wanted to see him. Qin Ge was a little surprised, and then agreed.
"Haha, Nagato hardly meets the commanders of other camps, and she even rarely meets the commander of her own camp. It seems that what I told her today has made her curious about you." Mikasa said to Qin Ge.
"Is that so?" Qin Ge nodded. "No problem. In that case, when Senior Mikasa is ready to go, just let me know."
"Okay, then you go and rest first. I'll take you with me next time I go to Nagato's place," Mikasa said.
"Yeah." Qin Ge nodded, then left Mikasa's room and returned to his own room.
And here, there are already several people waiting.
"Commander, is there anything that Senior Mikasa just called you for?" Guanghui said to Qin Ge.
"He just said that Sakura Empire's flagship, Nagato, wanted to meet me and asked if I wanted to go." Qin Ge said as he sat down.
"Oh? As the flagship of the Sakura Empire, you actually want to meet a commander outside your own camp. Interesting." Prince Eugen smiled and said, "Does the commander agree to go?"
Qin Ge nodded, "I agree, we'll go after Senior Mikasa makes the arrangements."
"It's better to go. Now that the Donghuang camp has pushed you to the forefront, it would be a good idea to expand your own network of relationships." Prince Eugen said.
"But what worries me is that the power that Nagato displayed at the shrine before was really hard to fathom. What would happen if she knew my identity?" Qin Ge asked.
"This is also a problem." Everyone pondered.
