Ark: Your Majesty! Why wasn't I assigned to take care of the wound?

QE: That's because you would scare her, knowing you very well it's obvious that your fetishes would come to light.

Ark: DAMN IT!

Meanwhile, in the Wales command office, Hornet and Cleveland are reprimanding Javelin and Laffey for their suicidal act to save Ayanami.

Cleveland: Seriously, that was very reckless of you.

Hornet: An unthinking burden to save the enemy, it is a noble act for which we do not give medals.

Javelin: (Depressed) We are very sorry for those irresponsible actions.

Belfast: (Defending Javelin) Please wait, I am the one who motivated them to do that.

Wales: Despite what you say, we still have to send the right message to the others. It's obvious they need to be punished for their actions.

Javelin becomes more depressed while Laffey maintains a sad expression.

Hornet: So it's settled then... Laffey and Javelin, because of your questionable actions, both of you will be assigned to prisoner supervision duties.

Cleveland: The prisoner of war must be treated well, that is the rule.

In that, the morale of Javelin and Laffey improves.

Javelin: That means that... 

Hornet: We count on you. 

Wales: In case, if the situation gets out of control, Izumo will be backing you up in the shadows.

Javelin: (Very happy) Thank you very much.

After that, both destroyers left the office, but Wales, Hornet, Cleveland, and Belfast stayed in the office to continue the conversation.

Wales: I can't believe I let them have such an indulgent deal. 

Cleveland: Don't think too much about it.

Hornet: Yes, yes, yes, that's correct. Coffee, tea, and life in general... being sweet makes everything better.

Wales: But in any case... this is the real problem...

In that moment, the tech box on the table opens, revealing the black mental cube. The girls are very surprised to see that the cube has a bright glow, which was absent a few weeks ago when they saw the cube.

Cleveland: (Shock) The cube! The cube is...!

Belfast: Since that battle, the cube has been behaving in a very strange way, unfortunately there is no way to know exactly what it means.

Wales: The black mental cube is the key to the Orochi project, there is no doubt that this is a plot by the sirens.

Hornet: So this has something to do with Akagi's behavior in attacking the fifth division and that power to teleport us to another dimension, right?

There was an awkward silence as no one knew what to say. 

Cleveland: Probably. 

Wales: How is Enterprise?

Hornet: My sister is resting, she is very stressed after preparing many reports to be sent to Eagle Union.

Wales: Being the president of a nation is very difficult, isn't it?

Hornet: Yes.

Cleveland: By the way, what could have happened to Akagi? Did you see her?

Hornet: Yes, it gave me goosebumps. In the past, I had always seen her due to multinational exercises, but that Akagi was scary.
