The Admiral of Hogwarts

Beauxbatons' style differs significantly from Hogwarts. If Hogwarts' greatest characteristic is its long history, then Beauxbatons is a magic school that embodies elegance from beginning to end.

Compared to Hogwarts, which looks like a military fortress, Beauxbatons is a beautiful French palace nestled in the Pyrenees Mountains on the border between France and Spain.

The entire campus is surrounded by magnificent gardens and fountains built using magic, creating a dazzling Rococo style. If a comparison is necessary, it resembles a miniature version of the Palace of Versailles.

The school's style is attributed to Nicolas Flamel, a graduate who repeatedly donated money to construct fountains and palace buildings. Consequently, many structures have been renovated multiple times, making them appear newer than they actually are.

Although Beauxbatons was established over two hundred years later than Hogwarts, its overall strength is not lacking. It is recognized as one of the top three European magic schools for good reason.

For example, in the prestigious Triwizard Tournament, Beauxbatons has won 62 championships, while Hogwarts has won 63.

Moreover, compared to Hogwarts' focus on comprehensive development, Beauxbatons lags slightly in many subjects. However, the school excels in alchemy, reigning supreme in the Western world.

For everyone, encountering a wizard with a similar background in the Muggle world is a very fortunate event, so Hugo and the other two chatted very happily.

After finishing their meal, Hugo and the others simply went to the study on the second floor to chat. As they chatted, they talked about the alchemy competition held during the summer vacation.

Compared to Hogwarts, Beauxbatons pays significantly more attention to this competition. After all, this school is famous for its alchemy, so it naturally values this competition very much.

"You're the Granger who got second place in the competition?" When Hugo mentioned his experience participating in the competition, Ilene looked at him with wide eyes.

"The person who won the championship this time is a senior who has a good relationship with me. He told me that his award in the last competition was actually very lucky, and the real winner should have been you."

"Your senior is too modest." Hugo shook his head and said with a smile. "It can be said that everyone in that competition was very powerful, and I indeed failed to complete the competition project—"

Ilene also took alchemy as an elective in school. Therefore, during the subsequent chat, she asked Hugo many questions about alchemy. From these questions, Hugo could see that Beauxbatons indeed has its own advantages in alchemy.

Because they were going to travel near the Alps by plane the next day, and this place was indeed located in the countryside, there wasn't much interesting to do. So, not long after dark, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

"Commander, wake up!" Around 1 a.m., Hugo was suddenly awakened from his dream. Then, he saw Enterprise and Firefly appear in the room.

"You've finally arrived." Seeing the ship girls in the room, Hugo first yawned and then said, "Sorry, I was a little sleepy just now, so I fell asleep directly."

Soon, Firefly drank the Polyjuice Potion and disguised herself as Hugo, while Hugo, at Enterprise's request, used the avatar to transform into a loli admiral and was carried on Enterprise's back.

"This feeling is really a bit strange." Just as Enterprise was carrying Hugo quickly across the field, Hugo slightly moved his body and said in a delicate voice.

"But it's very practical, isn't it?" Enterprise quickly jumped over an irrigation ditch on the ground and said, "After all, this place is a bit far from the highway, and it would be a waste of time to walk over slowly."

After the two arrived on the highway, Enterprise took out a motorcycle from the ship equipment space and then drove Hugo towards the Brest city area.

Soon, the two arrived at a small park. This small park obviously had a military memorial function. After bypassing a tank, they came to a huge cannon painted with white paint.

"This should be Richelieu's main gun." Noticing that there were no cameras or tourists around, Hugo returned to his original form, then patted the huge cannon and said, "Now it's time for these French ship girls to return to the team."

"Of course, dear Commander." Enterprise said while taking out various fetishes for summoning ship girls from her arms. "We need new sisters to join us at all times."

"Greetings to the General." After a flash of light, several figures appeared in the open space in front of the cannon. Then, led by Richelieu, they collectively gave Hugo a military salute.

"Greetings to the brave French soldiers." Hugo gave a military salute to the ship girls in front of him, then looked at the ship girls standing straight there.

All the ship girls summoned this time were from France. In addition to Richelieu, there were also Georges Leygues, De Grasse, Algérie, Le Fantasque, Vauquelin, Le Terrible, Maillé-Brézé, Volta, and Mogador.

Among them, there was one battleship ship girl, one heavy cruiser ship girl, two light cruiser ship girls, and six destroyer ship girls. Perhaps because there were a few more destroyer ship girls, they quickly gathered together and chatted after coming out.

"Okay, quiet down." After the summoning was over, Richelieu coughed lightly to calm down the chattering destroyers, then looked at Hugo and said, "Greetings to you, General, please assign us tasks."

"Relax, don't be so nervous." Seeing Richelieu's serious face, Hugo quickly returned a military salute and then said, "Your task next is very simple, just like everyone else, try to integrate into the local environment as much as possible—"

Because of the admiral network, the French ship girls quickly understood their next task. Then, led by Richelieu, they collectively saluted Hugo again and left the park.

"Is Richelieu a little too serious?" After the group of French ship girls left, Hugo changed back to the loli form and turned to ask Enterprise.

"She has always been so serious. After all, she is the leader of the French ship girls, and the overall situation of the French ship girls in the port area is really not good." Enterprise sighed softly and said. "So she has a lot of pressure on her."

"Not to mention that our power mainly comes from our main body and our name, and our personality will also be affected by this. I think you should know what Cardinal Richelieu represents in history—"

"I understand." After listening to Enterprise's explanation, Hugo immediately understood the reason why Richelieu was in this situation now, but he also believed that after the environment changed, everyone would always find a way to relax Richelieu.

European cities basically have no nightlife after entering the night. Everyone often stays at home very early and does not go out. As for the bars or discos that are open now, they are not very suitable for Hugo and Enterprise.

So, after roughly visiting the park, Hugo changed back to the loli image and was taken back to his residence by Enterprise.
