Chapter 1459 AfterMath
Like so, the couple spent 3 hours in their chambers.
In truth, they made up barely 5 minutes after reaching their room.
However, after that, both took their baths, washed away the salty seawater, and had a meal together before finally stepping out to continue their duties.
What? It was in their nature to drag out anger with each other.
Many people might think they did so because they usually spent time bonding in private after any disagreements.
So now, with them leaving after 3 hours, many thought it took 2 or hours instead.
But for this, Lucy and Landon would only roll their eyes heavenwards.
Most people could indeed stay angry for half a day or longer with partners, but they couldn\'t.
How could they go to work, sleep, or even part from their partners with such anger brooding within?
The couple stepped out holding hands in warmth, and many had a tactful look in their eyes.
It looks like the couple was back to throw dog food at them again.
"Pay up! You owe me 5 Bays!"
...
With things under control, Landon and Lucy headed to the Control Center for a brief meeting.
And there, they met with several other leading men and women involved with the mission.
"Your Majesty Landon!"
"Her Majesty Queen Lucy!"
Everyone saluted one another, taking their seats, with their secretaries at the side, one taking down minutes and the rest sitting as still as stones.
Some attendees had also arrived from the other ships too.
Landon leaned forward, staring at everyone glance by glance.
"First off, I would like to congratulate us all on our victory. Every battle, no matter how small or how great, should be celebrated!"
~Clap. Clap. Clap. Clap.~
Many clapped for themselves as though giving a pat on their backs.
For every victory, every good thing life brings, it was always important to be appreciative of it all. Even the air they breathed was a luxury because it could be done bad with some of them sinking to the bottom of the abyss.
When the ships rocked up and down, some were indeed thrown overboard but hung at the sides of the ship thanks to them being strapped in.
And of course, whenever this happened, many would cover for them, shooting whatever came their way while aiding these hanging men to climb up the ropes.
In the end, their quick thinking, protocols, drills when attacked by large animals, and luck had saved them all.
This was the first time they had gone through this sort of attack.
Thankfully, their drill-taught skills were good, though not as close to the real situation at hand. In truth, without his majesty\'s help, things would not have gone this smoothly.
Everyone inwardly recognized this matter while also taking this route.
Unless in dire straits, they would never use this oath again!!
So dangerous.
What other big things lay here? No wonder no ships could be spotted around the many mile radii\' on the radar.
When traveling, they would use the radar to dodge ships like ghosts.
The radar released a signal that traveled and mapped everything within certain mile radiuses.
But for a while now, no ship was detected... Not even a sinking one.
Inwardly, they made up their minds that when they arrived at Zohl, they would gather enough information about the waters around these regions.
Another thing they were thankful for was that the attack occurred when the dogs were in their training room 2 floors down.
If one of their dogs got eaten or injured, they would feel terrible. To them, the dogs were their comrades who they respected as individuals.
Of course even without the attacks, whenever they allowed the dogs to run on deck or about, they always dressed them in both lightweight armor and floatation suits too.
.
~Clap. Clap. Clap. Clap. Clap.~
The brave men and women clapped for their victory in today\'s battle.
Landon nodded in satisfaction.
"You all handled things beautifully... Though there are still a few more things we should\'ve all done better: you, me, and the rest of our brave soldiers, marines, and navy personnel. But before we get into that, Status report. Go!"
"Yes, your majesty." Replied the lead Captain in charge of all the other ship Captains.
"No punctures to any ships made, though a few dents have been formed. As for ammunition, what we used was barely 0.03% of all we have in stock."
Landon massaged his chin thoughtfully. "So it shouldn\'t affect our war and plans for Zohl."
"Correct, your majesty. We still have more than enough for the real battle. However, we still have to consider if such attacks from the sea occur very frequently."
Of course, the ammunition wasn\'t the main problem.
The issue was that now that a few dents had formed on the ships, though the dents weren\'t deep if they came across another school of boggles that hit on those same dented places repeatedly, the results would be bad!
These boggles had thick skin that was even a luxury to use on battlefields.
So this alone should tell one how touched their skin was.
If along the way, they met more and more of these sorts of deadly sea creatures, then who could say whether their ships would reach Zohl in good conditions? One or 2 might even sink in the end.
Again, there could be more dangerous and powerful creatures like the boggles out there.
So it was best for them to prepare for the worst!
Landon\'s eyes narrowed at the few documents that were put together in these 3 hours.
From the report, only 2 major machine parts close to the dents needed maintenance and quick fix-ups.
"Your majesty, the military mechanics & ship engineers are already on the job."
"Good. Keep an eye out for things. Though we\'ve always been battle-ready, we need to be on a higher alert stance. Allocate and prepare more ammunition for the job. Am I clear?!!!"
"Yes, your majesty!"
