Chapter 174 03.0173: ‘The elegance and grace that belongs only to the navy’
After the main course, some people who adhered to the ascetic style, such as the old Monk of the State Church, greeted the captain and prayed to the Emperor of God, thanking him for giving food to the world, and then left the restaurant and went to the bridge church to preach.
The military supervisors also returned to the bridge first because they had to perform their supervisory duties.
After the medical officers had eaten their fill, they took some food for the injured officers and seriously injured soldiers with the captain’s consent, and then hurried to the medical cabin.
There were almost only naval officers left in the entire captain’s office.
For them, now was the climax of the whole banquet.
It meant that the entertainment time that belonged only to the officers was coming.
After three rounds of wine, the servants replaced the second layer of tablecloth and pushed out a variety of rich, exquisite and small desserts.
There are cream cakes, puddings of various flavors, slices of alien fruits picked from hydroponic farms...
The Indefatigable, the 'void nest', has rich and diverse products.
Because of the hundreds of years of sailing, the ship has collected many seeds and cultivation techniques of various specialties from every corner of the vast territory of the human empire.
There are more delicacies than most nest city nobles can enjoy.
"Want to eat something sweet and clear your mouth?"
"A piece of cream cake, I think that one is good, hiccup~"
With a slightly red cheek, Farida gently touched the corner of her lips with a handkerchief and smiled apologetically.
She drank a lot of sweet fruit wine, and under the influence of alcohol, her words and deeds were much more relaxed than before.
With the temperament of a noble lady deeply rooted in her bones, Farida Hood became more generous, decent, dignified and elegant.
It also added a mature sexiness and charm to her blushing face and blurred and delicate eyes that could drip water.
Horatio also drank a lot, and as the effect of the stimulant slowly faded, he felt a little tipsy.
This feeling was very comfortable, and the depression and bloodshed and death in the battle were left behind, and he felt a lot more happy and relieved.
This is also one of the important reasons why the Imperial Navy cannot do without alcohol.
This is a world full of war and death.
Officers cannot be filled with negative emotions, otherwise depression will soon come to them.
They must learn to enjoy, relieve and adjust their mood.
As long as they do not offend the evil factors that may lead to depravity, or cause rumors that damage their reputation, the Imperial Navy hardly interferes with the private lives of officers.
After all, sailing in the void is lonely.
And these mortal elites who enjoy abundant resources and rich capital are frequent visitors of rejuvenation magicians, and time is not a precious thing for them.
So during the long voyage and the time of serving the Emperor.
Cultivating elegant (or not so elegant) hobbies is a practice that every officer must learn to kill time, express emotions, and reduce stress.
A melodious and lively tune was played diagonally across the street.
Horatio and Farida looked at the lieutenants.
Although the tipsy officers were still polite and decent, they began their own entertainment.
Some officers asked their servants to fetch musical instruments from their lounges or bedrooms.
Some officers simply snatched instruments from the military band.
The naval officers showed their talents and played instruments to blend into the melody.
Seeing that the officers had started to have fun, the military band changed the melody from military music to those lively upper-class pop music.
They played with the officers.
Some people held wine glasses and sang emotionally to the beat.
The atmosphere in the luxurious and spacious captain's office suddenly became lively.
With the music and singing, some officers came to the booth next to them with wine and started playing cards.
Some officers invited officers of the opposite sex to dance together with them, which was a decent dance in the upper class.
This was a part of socializing and entertainment.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some young male and female officers secretly fall in love with each other and take the opportunity to dance with their favorite objects.
As long as there is no scandal that will make them lose face, the Imperial Navy will not only not interfere with the communication and private life of naval officers, but the captains and captains will even match these outstanding young people to love and give birth to children.
For the human empire, His Majesty the Emperor needs high-quality gold coins too much.
The Ministry of the Interior of the Empire has even proposed to the Navy Ministry more than once to collect personal "tithes" from commissioned naval officers with excellent qualities - how many children must be born each year.
But they were all rejected by the Supreme Navy Department.
The reason is simple: "It is the power of naval officers to pursue love and give birth to children, and outsiders have no right to interfere with their free will. '
Navy officers with heavy responsibilities and pressures can live as happily as they want, and don't give them those so-called "obligations".
They have enough responsibilities and obligations to shoulder and fulfill for the empire.
"Mr. Horatio, do you want to dance together?" Under the influence of alcohol, Farida made an invitation to Horatio that would be impossible under normal circumstances.
"Of course, if you want."
Dancing is a normal interactive social link in the social circle of the upper class.
So Horatio didn't think much about it.
After drinking the wine in the glass and eating the sweet and delicious fruit slices on the plate, the servant standing behind him handed him a special napkin.
He gently wiped the sauce on his lips, stood up and left the seat.
The two servants also took the opportunity to replace the two officers with new silver plates for them to enjoy fruits and desserts after dancing.
The two men straightened their military uniforms.
"Please, Miss Hood." Horatio extended his hand to her politely.
As a top student of the Naval Academy, the etiquette courses taught by the school were enough for him to easily cope with any social activities in the upper class.
Since the lady invited him to dance, as a man, he must take the initiative to extend his hand to respond to the invitation.
"Sir, Mr. Horatio and Miss Hood seem to be very close." The lieutenant held up the wine glass and leaned slightly to the captain on his left.
He knew that Horatio Cochrane was a talent that Commodore Peru had focused on training, but he didn't know if he had any intention of becoming his in-laws.
It happened that Commodore Peru had a daughter who was born late in life, and he had a beautiful daughter who was in her prime, Miss Thei Peru.
"What does it matter?" Commodore Peru raised his glass and said in response, "Imperial law does not stipulate that officers of the Imperial Navy can only marry one wife."
Captain Sterling raised his eyebrows knowingly, and understood what Commodore Peru meant.
He had a good personal relationship with Vice Admiral Alexander Hood, so good that he did not mind marrying his daughters to an outstanding naval officer with a promising future.
"I wish the Imperial Navy to have more generals!" Captain Pringle Sterling, who also married three wives, smiled and picked up the glass.
"The more the better!" The Commodore chuckled and drank it all with his first mate.
Please give me a monthly ticket, a recommendation ticket, QAQ thank you!
