      by Emerlyn — The Australian continent began to come into view. It was the first port of call. A naval port had been built at Shell Beach, at the end of the Nanga region in Western Australia. Originally, it was connected to Cape Peron like a thin strip, but as sea levels rose, it became disconnected once at Shell Beach. Cape Peron, which repeatedly revealed and hid itself according to the tides, was showing its shy appearance today. The crew members were very excited about stepping on land for the first time in…

      by Emerlyn — That was a question he was asking himself, not Alyosha. —What right? You're that Baby's older brother! "I'm not really his brother. If it's not on paper or by blood, I'm just an older acquaintance." Moreover, they haven't been in contact for over two years. It's even less than an acquaintance. Yoon Moo-hwa rubbed his forehead with his thumb while holding the cigarette. He tormented his forehead until it turned red. —Are you going to leave it like that? If so, you might as well date…

      by Emerlyn — They barely made it through a night that was like a war, no, it was practically a war. The unidentified vessel kept the fleet on edge all night before disappearing. This happened just before sunrise when visibility improved. Naturally, the crew members, on edge from seasickness and frayed nerves all night, let loose a string of colorful curses as soon as the vessel vanished and the combat stations were stood down. The ship's interior is filled with vulgar common language mixed with profanities…

      by Emerlyn — When Haero went to the dining hall for dinner, he realized that his inadvertent nod had caused a misunderstanding. A man as tall as Yoon Moo-hwa entered, greeted the petty officer sitting next to Haero, and sat down across from Haero with his tray. At first, Haero didn't think much of it, but he looked up when greeted. "I'm Second Lieutenant So Eunpa from the 8th Special Forces Battalion, joining the operation." The Special Forces Battalion wasn't exactly part of this ship. They were a special…

      by Emerlyn — The ship's broadcast warning about swells continued for over an hour. These weren't natural waves. They were massive vibrations caused by the dying seawater's thrashing, not by the moon's movement. A few ships from the squadron took turns confirming with artillery fire. Being just at the edge of the gray pit, they couldn't waste ammunition and had to return after firing only basic shells. Even after that, it took an hour and twenty minutes for things to calm down. They didn't even realize the…

      by Emerlyn — There was a scent of pencils. "Where did you leave your companion to be wandering around here like this?" Yoon Moo-hwa pulled Haero to a less crowded area on the outskirts of the crowd. Haero, still dazed, could only watch Yoon Moo-hwa as he was being led away. Only after reaching a spot far from the festival's center but still able to enjoy the atmosphere did Yoon Moo-hwa release the hand he had been gripping tightly. "The one separating me from my companion is you, Captain." "Is that so?…

      by Emerlyn — It was the same habit from when he was young, tasting a bite at a time beside Yoon Moo-hwa as he cooked. Those who were throwing mischievous glances at So Eunpa all froze, staring at the two. But Haero ate the ice cream as if he and Yoon Moo-hwa were alone. In other words, Yoon Moo-hwa had naturally fed Haero. "Ah... the lieutenant had no hands free. I was about to ask if he had no hands or feet, but he really had no hands free." The chief engineer tried to break the tense atmosphere with an awkward…

      by Emerlyn — Yoon Moo-hwa stood up, took the package, and opened it. The contents weren't visible from Haero's side. "No. You shouldn't have looked." ‘What's this about? Then why did he ask?’  Haero made a sulky face. "The items arrived properly." "..." "Do you have any other business?" When Yoon Moo-hwa asked, Haero knew he was being shooed away in a petty manner, but pretended not to notice and asked, "If I'm curious, will you show me?" Yoon Moo-hwa let out a mirthless laugh. "No.…
