บท 388: Battleship in Action

On the Captain Quarters of the battleship Ciela Bonaparte, Captain Maurice-Julien Emeriau was having tea inside while reading the latest print of the newspaper.

"It's a good thing that France is dealing with the influenza virus so effectively," Captain Emeriau commented.

Moments later, there was a knock on the door. 

"Who is it?" Captain Emeriau demanded, glancing at the door. 

"It's Leclerc, and I have an urgent letter here that requires your attention," Leclerc replied from the other side of the door.

"Come in," Captain Emeriau beckoned, setting aside his newspaper and tea.

Leclerc entered briskly and extended an envelope towards Emeriau. "This just arrived from the Imperial Navy Headquarters in Paris," he informed.
