Crossing the azure as a black dragon

Tirpitz took out the mechanical cube and placed it in Kirov's hand.

"Thank you for your hard work. I will report to the commander. Let me take you to the rest room first."

Kirov manipulated the mechanical cube for a moment, then turned around and assumed a leading posture.

"We have other tasks to attend to, so we won't stay any longer. Please give our regards to your commander."

Just as the black dragon was about to follow, Prince Eugen stepped forward and spoke first.

"...Is that so? In that case, I won't force you. Please do as you please."

Kirov frowned, but quickly recovered and turned to walk into the port area.

Black Dragon was somewhat puzzled.

"We just happened to run into their ship girls who were out. Let's go, or we'll be left behind."

Prince Eugen turned around and quietly explained the situation to Black Dragon.

The first time she saw Black Flying Dragon, she understood that Black Flying Dragon was the kind of ship girl who left the port shortly after she was born, which is why she said that she was like a child.

It's impossible for someone who has spent some time in the port area to be completely ignorant of common sense.

Although she was criticized at the time, her opinion on the Black Dragon remained unchanged.

"Let's go."

Before Black Dragon could ask any questions, Tirpitz turned and left the dock, but instead of moving back the way he came, he started walking towards the land.

"This mission was pretty simple, although we were startled by the Sirens along the way."

Cleveland patted the black dragon on the shoulder and led her to follow Tirpitz.

"kindness…"

Black Dragon thought about how she had been startled awake that morning. This time, the Sirens weren't strong enough to give her nightmares.

However, the sirens' strange behavior along the way made Black Dragon suspect that there might be intelligent sirens collecting their data from behind.

Perhaps they realized they couldn't win and that's why they didn't come out?

"Speaking of which, is there another mission we have to take this way?"

Discarding the far-fetched speculation, Black Dragon looked at Tirpitz.

"That's it."

Tirpitz's tone was somewhat perfunctory.

“We have a few old friends who have settled here, and we took on this task because we wanted to visit them on our way.”

Prince Eugen said from the side.

"I see."

As Black Flying Dragon listened, a strange sense of anticipation welled up inside him.

She hadn't gone to the mainland when she went to the South China Sea before, but this time when she came to Beilian, she was actually able to go ashore and take a look.

"In that case, it's been a long time since we've been to Beilian. Let's go for a walk on land."

Cleveland blinked and echoed.

"It seems like it was three months ago when I last came here. Time really flies."

Helena lamented that time waits for no one.

Belfast followed at the back, listening to their remarks with a slight smile.

"Hmm? There's a group of ten ship girls coming this way. Should we avoid them?"

While filled with anticipation, Black Dragon continued her reconnaissance. Eugen's emphasis on the fact that the Northern Alliance's ship girls were untouchable made her a little afraid.

"No need, as long as we don't run into each other in the port area."

Tirpitz glanced at Prince Eugen, who immediately put on an innocent expression.

The two teams quickly passed each other. Of the ten ship girls, three were from other factions, and the remaining seven were from the Northern Alliance. Black Dragon only recognized Aurora and Gangut; she had never seen the other five before.

This is her

The ship that wasn't implemented in the game when I traveled through time.

“…That’s…Tirpitz?”

After passing each other, a girl from the Northern Alliance wearing a navy hat slowed down, turned around, and looked at the departing Black Dragon and his group with some confusion.

……

Black Dragon and his group flew at high speed and soon arrived at a small seaside city.

As mentioned before, the architectural style of the Northern Alliance is different from that of the Eastern Empire. Any slightly larger buildings look like castles to the Black Flying Dragon.

"It hasn't snowed yet this season."

Black Flying Dragon looked at the bare tree trunks by the roadside and muttered to himself.

She really thought it was snowing all year round in Beilian.

"If you want to see snow at this time of year, you'll have to go further north."

Belfast provided timely assistance.

"Belfast, have you been here before?"

Black Flying Dragon humbly sought advice.

"I stayed there for a short period of time before."

Belfast smiled and replied.

"The local specialties and delicacies here are probably not what you expect, so don't waste your time."

Prince Eugen glanced back at the black dragon.

"Tsk."

Black Flying Dragon didn't believe it.

"The stewed meat and caviar here, as well as all kinds of bread, are quite delicious. There's a shop over there; go and try them and you'll see."

Helena pointed to a shop not far away.

"May I?"

Black Dragon looked at Tirpitz.

She still lacks experience as a ship girl and needs to rely on veterans like Tirpitz when going to sea.

"Let's go get something to eat first."

Tirpitz did not disappoint the Black Dragon's expectations and stopped in his tracks.

Black Dragon raised an eyebrow at Prince Eugen, who scoffed and ignored her provocation.

Half an hour later, Black Flying Dragon walked out of the restaurant, rubbing his belly, looking rather dissatisfied.

There are quite a few dishes here, but not many look normal. Those that look normal taste almost the same as those from Donghuang, which is quite absurd.

"I've already told you."

Prince Eugen shrugged.

"Okay, where are your friends?"

After the novelty wore off, the black dragon returned to normal.

"Look, it's over there."

Prince Eugen's gaze fell upon a bakery at the end of the street.

The group strolled to the outside of the bakery. Black Flying Dragon looked into the store through the glass. The products inside weren't particularly novel. The shop owner was a rather handsome middle-aged man wearing an apron and busy with the merchandise. He didn't see them.

"This is?"

Black Dragon seemed to have thought of something.

"This is my former commander."

Tirpitz answered calmly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the shop manager inside looked up and saw Tirpitz, his expression full of surprise.

"Please wait a moment."

Tirpitz and Eugen entered the bakery and chatted with the shopkeeper. Soon after, three Ironblood ship girls came out of the shop and chatted with Tirpitz and Eugen with delighted expressions.

"so good."

Cleveland looked at the scene inside, his tone tinged with envy.

"kindness."

Helena smiled.

Black Dragon also fell silent. She wasn't built by the commander; as a stowaway, she had no one she could truly confide in.

Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Head Maid Says She Knows Nothing

Are there any fun places to visit around here?

After only a few minutes of sullenness, Black Dragon recovered and looked at the three in Cleveland.

"A fun place? If I remember correctly, there seems to be a wildlife park up ahead?"

Cleveland snapped out of his reverie, thought for a moment, and pointed into the distance.

"Oh? Shall we go take a look together?"

Black Flying Dragon was somewhat surprised that there was even a zoo by the sea; no wonder it was the Northern Alliance.

"Hmm... let's go take a look."

Tirpitz and the other two showed no sign of leaving, and Helena agreed to go for a walk in the zoo.

"I'll wait for you all here."
