Ch.253Status Check After a Long Time! (1)

Anyway, all that chaos that happened right after the event has now become just a thing of the past with the passage of time.

After receiving compensation(?) from Betelgeuse and teleporting the three detained superhumans directly to the Loki Clan headquarters.

As time passed and continued to pass…

—————————————-

<<<Special Design Management Bureau Construction Complete>>>

—————————————-

“Oh.”

The moment I saw that the <Special Design Management Bureau> I had started building right after the event was just completed.

I was surprised to realize that the “comfortable and peaceful” life I’d been living recently had already lasted over two weeks.

Of course, that “comfortable and peaceful” life wasn’t referring to the forced peace maintained through area-shields right after the event.

Rather, it was based on the standard of normal, ordinary gameplay…

-Beep beep beep, beep beep beep!

“Commander, another unaffiliated pirate group is crawling into our sector right now.”

“There seem to be more than usual today. Tell Tiamat to go handle it quickly.”

“Yes sir.”

This kind of thing—neutral mobs drifting into our vicinity—was included in our daily routine.

Anyway, what’s important is that apart from the appearance of such everyday mobs.

It would be fair to say that there were hardly any particularly memorable events during the period since that wretched spy event(?) until now.

…Well, actually there was exactly one thing.

“Come to think of it, Commander, didn’t someone from the Justice Clan visit a few days ago?”

“Mm, that’s right.”

Just as Jessica mentioned, perhaps because Humanity and Loki had made contact with me.

It seemed like Justice couldn’t stand to be left out, so they naturally tried to establish contact with me as well.

However, unlike the Humanity Clan who sent a separate representative, or the Loki Clan who sent a spy(?) or only contacted me via communication.

What was notable was that Justice sent none other than their clan leader, Arcadia herself, which was quite unusual.

But as you can tell from the fact that I’m pointing out that ‘only’ Arcadia coming in person was unusual…

When Arcadia arrived in a ‘Hood’-class cruiser that she had used effectively during the event, rather than having any proper constructive conversation, how should I put it?

It felt much more like she was just being flirtatious.

No, beyond just being flirtatious…

“It was really surprising then, wasn’t it? The clan leader declaring herself to be your fan, Commander.”

“Hmm…”

As Jessica said, when Arcadia came to see me, she showed an extremely giddy reaction saying she was my “fan!”

I remember being very flustered by Arcadia’s behavior.

But looking at it differently, I started to wonder if she was deliberately trying to fluster me to gain some advantage.

Unlike Betelgeuse or the Humanity side.

She came at me in a truly unexpected way, and made quite a few attempts to probe me about various things, knowingly or unknowingly.

Thinking about how I let my guard down because she seemed naive and ended up doing various things for her, I felt that Arcadia might be someone I really shouldn’t underestimate.

‘They say characters who seem naive often turn out to be secretly powerful… so that was true…!’

==========

Meanwhile, Marian and Jessica, who had been keeping their distance during this random conversation…

Were shaking their heads as they watched Icarus react to the talk about Arcadia.

“Commander Arcadia seems to have chosen a difficult love.”

“I know, right? It’s not that oppa is insensitive…”

“Honestly, he’s just not interested in female emotions or anything like that.”

Of course, if Icarus heard such talk, the atmosphere would definitely become awkward.

So they whispered as quietly as possible, offering their condolences(?) to Arcadia who had displayed such pure love.

And while those two were having their girl talk…

What was our Icarus trying to do?

“Let’s gooooo!”

“Excuse me? What are you trying to build?”

“Isn’t it obvious? The Air Command Headquarters, of course!”

He was attempting to resurrect the large aircraft carrier that had been sitting unused in the docking facility for over two weeks after receiving it as a reward.

==========

“Let’s gooooooooo!”

However, contrary to my enthusiastic appearance…

—————————————-

<Air Command Headquarters under construction…>

<Time remaining until completion: 22 days 1 hour 5 minutes 31 seconds>

—————————————-

Due to the characteristics of high-tier buildings, our <Air Command Headquarters> would take quite a long time to complete.

Unfortunately, the resurrection of the practically dead large aircraft carrier would require 22 days and 1 more hour, so to speak.

Anyway, after confirming that our large aircraft carrier would need more time to “get out of bed”…

My attention now shifted toward Tiamat’s leveling and performance.

And Tiamat, who had shown aircraft buff abilities far exceeding expectations even at level 1, had now reached level 30.

—————————————-

<‘Black Count’ Pirate Raid Cleared!>

<Battle Result: 13 ships sunk out of 15, 2 ships surrendered>

—————————————-

“Hooh.”

“When she operates aircraft, she truly flies.”

“Amazing, oppa wasn’t excited for nothing.”

Despite barely 10 minutes passing since I ordered her to intercept the pirates who were reported to be attacking.

She managed to sink 13 out of 15 pirate ships and forced 2 to surrender, demonstrating excellent air traffic control and command abilities.

I found myself nodding in satisfaction, thinking that for the first superhuman I obtained from gacha, she was truly impressive.

-“How was that, Commander? My excellent air traffic control abilities!”

“Excellent work, Tiamat. Come back and get some rest now.”

-“Yessir!”

However, apart from her performance, just looking at her appearance, I had a strong impression that she would have a serious FM like Berial.

Or that she would be a succubus with a perpetually lewd style like Pashtra or Griyanar.

But as the wiki tab description I saw before explained, Tiamat was, how should I put it?

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she combined both clumsiness and innocence within her villainous appearance.

Right now, as she was showing off and striking a victory po-se.

Due to her design characteristic of not wearing any bottoms, her uniform coat and hem fluttered up, and something pink was almost visible at the bottom of the communication screen.

Yet the person herself wasn’t paying any attention to it at all and was just holding her head high, which was truly complex and profound.

And there were many other clumsy aspects as well.

Having the longest hair among our superhumans, she would often get it caught on things and struggle.

She frequently used her tail as a third hand, but then it would get tangled with her actual hands, causing her to do strange things.

She would place drink cups between her enormous breasts that were too large for her uniform to close properly and sip from them.

Then when I or someone else called her, she would respond “Yes” and move, compressing her chest.

The plastic cup, unable to withstand the violence of the enormous fat masses, would be crushed, causing the drink inside to erupt like lava onto her face and head.

Except when commanding aircraft squadrons in battle, she showed peculiarly incompetent tendencies in all other aspects, giving me a truly strange feeling.

But more important than all of that, if there was one major characteristic…

For some unknown reason, her physical abilities represented by ‘Health,’ ‘Attack Power,’ and ‘Physical Defense’ actually decreased as she leveled up.

‘Why on earth.’
