Smiling satisfied at Anna, Theon replied with a smile.
Anna's smile was genuine, but Theon's was completely sarcastic.
The dress Anna wore was not much different from Natsumi's.
It's just that the burgundy dress is much more revealing than Natsumi's, exuding the aura of a mature woman.
Although she felt that the dress with the same color as her hair suited her well, but because of this, she felt an indescribable feeling.
"He is obviously a man holding a large-caliber rifle and riding a motorcycle, but he looks very ladylike. I think this is ordinary fraud."
"It's rude as usual."
Anna looks a little angry, but that's actually who she is.
She also excelled on the 7th Artificial Island, but she served as a practical skills instructor at the NCO School.
As the chief of staff now, he concentrates on commanding Xion and other mobile armor units, but I heard that before he taught at the sergeant academy, he also achieved good results as a mobile armor pilot. look.
Even the "Rising Sun News" can operate calmly, presumably he can now show off his skills as an ordinary pilot.
She is usually very virtuous like that. The thought of him strutting around a party with that look on his face felt like a total fraud. This is what Theon thought.
"Looking at the instructors in this state, everyone has their noses straightened out. It's really pitiful..."
"She thought I was beautiful and convinced me that someone had pushed their nose down."
It's true that I think so, but that's not the point.
It's not that Anna doesn't understand this, it's just that she doesn't want to take Xion's words seriously.
"Putting aside this, have you finished greeting each other?"
"Well, it would be nice if there are only relevant personnel from the human army this time."
The lightsaber master is a famous family in the ball country. There is not such a high level of recognition and friendship in Yadong.
Ajit said that if this was a football country or the United States, it would take more time. He was half surprised and half unable to understand this.
"So, are there more people outside of the human military?"
"After all, this is a political facility. Although I am assisting in the design, it would not be a good thing if too many human troops come."
The Human Army is a military organization designed to protect the entire human world.
Neither preferential treatment nor neglect of specific countries is a principle that must be adhered to.
In fact, there seems to be a lot of controversy about whether to comply with this regulation, but this is another topic, that is, it cannot give the impression of preferential treatment to Yadong.
"It is precisely because of these that human society is in such trouble..."
"Isn't this the case in outsider society?"
"At least in our world... maybe it's because there aren't that many people."
"What about another world? That's a world outside of humans, right?"
I was a little surprised to see Haruma coming in with a gluttonous mood, but everything I knew came to mind.
"It is indeed a country in the whole world, and the relationship between the countries should not change. Although there are some factions and the like within this country, there has been no connection with anything other than darkness for more than a thousand years. War should be much more peaceful than human society, right?"
"…………"
Halma could not refute Xion's words, her expression was a little serious and she fell into silence.
I didn't mean to make him look like that, but it might be annoying to him.
Although his attitude towards Theon has softened, it does not mean that his hatred of Hjalmar and the "other world" has disappeared.
The hateful "other world" sounds more peaceful than human society, so it must be boring.
"By the way, Captain, when was I revealed?"
Although the change of topic was a bit far-fetched, it was an important issue for Theon.
Originally, Xion was here to officially reveal Xion's existence to the world - this was what Achid and his team expected.
Expectations were all, if not for that, it would be hard to imagine inviting Theon to a place where dignitaries gathered.
Xion believes that this is most likely the prediction, but so far there has been no clear statement that it will be made public, nor has he heard any arrangements.
There was nothing at this point an hour after the ceremony started, and Xion felt a little uneasy in his heart: "Is it really just an invitation?"
"Unfortunately, I have not received such news either."
"Um……"
"In this case, you wouldn't know if you don't ask Commander-in-Chief Gold directly."
"Oh, did I call you?"
"...?"
Hearing the third person's voice mixed into the conversation between Theon and Ajit, they all looked to the side. Commander-in-Chief Christopher Gold was standing next to them.
Christopher enjoyed white wine from a slender wine glass while facing Theon and others who were exclaiming as they forgot about the banquet hall.
When should I say hello to him in advance? I thought about it a lot, but when I thought about how confident he was with his smile while drinking red wine, I suddenly lost the mood to say it.
"See you again. Akide, Xion, Anna. Also, it's been a long time since I saw Haruma and Natsumi. You have grown up."
Christopher said hello casually, but looked at Haruma and Natsumi as tenderly as he treated his grandchildren.
Seeing Xiaojing looking like she wanted to explain, he quietly put his face to her ear.
"I heard that Supreme Commander Gold had a very good relationship with our grandfather and had known each other since a long time ago. ... After my parents died, he also helped me a lot before I grew up."
"...Even if not, the lightsaber family is more powerful than I thought."
Unexpectedly, he had a good relationship with the top brass of the human army in private.
Although they themselves have no such intention, they should be able to accomplish a lot by using this relationship.
"Let's not talk about this for now, Xion, I will let you come on stage with me later, so just be ready."
"Isn't the explanation too rough?! Can you tell me more carefully about your plans?!"
"Don't you like such a rigid topic?"
"That's what I say, but I think there's a certain degree!?"
Although I have the self-awareness to be completely controlled by Christopher's rhythm, even if I have the self-awareness, I can't think of a way out.
"What, basically all I have to do is talk. All you have to do is stand next to me obediently... I seem to have expected such a development, so there should be no problem, right?"
Although it was in the form of a question, no matter how he thought about it, Xion had no veto power.
The unfolding of the raging wave from the sudden appearance, even the pauses for complaints, did not go as Christopher expected.
Regardless, it's clear that Theon will make his official debut after this.
There doesn't seem to be any special requirements, so we can only wait for the time to end safely.
"If that's okay, I'd like to give you a break after the press conference."
"That's not possible. Someone must be interested in you. You have to say hello to them properly."
"Woo," he made a sound of disgust from the bottom of his heart, but Christopher did not blame him, but ignored him and continued.
"This is also what you must do so that you can live peacefully in the human army. Even if you are somewhat reluctant, you must do it."
"Is there a weirdo who knows my identity and comes to approach me?"
"Some people will think that you are a minority, right? Because of this, you should firmly pull those minorities to your side."
A cooperative relationship with the human military and whether it is viewed in good faith are two different things.
People like Christopher and Ajid are completely in the minority.
Because of this, I want to say that you should not look down on people who approach you.
"Even if you only have one partner... you might be able to increase your number if you change your mind here. Don't you think this is a very cheap thing?"
Christopher said with a smile.
In any case, as long as it is an organization with a large number of people, factions and interpersonal relationships will be complicated. Even the human army is no exception.
Because of his position as a human army, he must have a personal understanding of the power of establishing connections such as "building relationships" and "receiving people".
"...Oh, I don't want to know the details either."
Although the internal situation of the human army is not well understood, it is a group that brings together people from originally hostile countries. Regardless of the surface, I had a feeling that things behind the scenes would be quite complicated.
Thinking of this, Theon felt that Christopher was a bit scary, so he decided to listen to his advice honestly.
