Chapter 1606: Chapter 63: Possibility_2

If it weren’t for the burden of her family’s future and even the entire Feiyang’s future, she would rather be just a little girl with no ties to the military. She wouldn’t reject the glory and wealth of the Hastings family nor boast shallowly about it.

As long as there are enough financial conditions to support her whims, allowing her to shop as she pleases, pursue her own desires, travel to the universe’s depths, and not get lost in the hardships of life and the chase for money, it would be enough.

Unfortunately, that is just an unrealistic fantasy. From the day she became sensible, she knew that her life was not hers to decide. This naturally included marriage. Apart from marrying a man of equal stature to maintain or elevate the Hastings family’s status through alliance, she had no other choice.

To this day, Margaret doesn’t remember whether she blurted out on Mars to Fatty about marrying him was entirely due to an interest-bound obligation or due to a rebellion and resistance deep within her heart.

As an ordinary female officer, being with Fatty was her most relaxed time. Teaching Fatty to play online command games, watching him beat SM01314 in "Sky-Filling Fire" for her revenge, teasing each other on the balcony, playing dangerous games between men and women that make hearts race...

In the Mecha game, the truest side of her, hidden when masked and leaving identity behind, was unconsciously brought into reality by Margaret for the first time.

Only during that period, she was not an heir, not a witch. She was angered by Fatty until she fumed, saw his lustful and unbearably itchy demeanor and felt smug, felt aggrieved enough to cry when caught in the Mecha hand, watched with joy and frustration as he teamed up with Admiral Chuckna and Zhang Pengcheng to beat Sammon...

Yet, after going through all this, there remained between her and Fatty an unexplainable, perhaps microscope-needed sliver of regret. Though small, it genuinely existed. Even after experiencing life and death together in Hanjing and integrating the most directly in the hospital, it never vanished.

The reason is simple, she and Fatty had never truly fallen in love. To her, not experiencing a romance under flowers and the moon, not succumbing to Fatty’s pursuit, was simply the most unforgivable mistake of life!

The mistake was corrected today.

Because that damned, carefree, lazy, careless Fatty finally, silently became the successor of Hastings, her man, the guardian of the Fei Alliance and Hastings family.

Though this flirtatious guy entangled with many women never uttered sweet words from start to finish, he was right beside her, preparing silently!

Defeating Leefer, without needing to create Ryan Battlefield’s situation map, only when he prepared to share her responsibilities would it be necessary!

"Why are you looking at me lustfully?" Fatty glared at Margaret.

Margaret’s sweet sentiments instantly turned to ashes, and she pounced on Fatty, biting down hard.

For a long time...

"What did you discover?" Margaret smiled as she rubbed the bite mark on Fatty’s arm, nestled beside him like a little bird, and curiously asked.

"Take a closer look at the data on the battle diagram, don’t you think Leefer’s victory came too easily?" On the screen, Little Pi rolled his eyes and said with a pout.

Margaret stared at the diagram. The data that looked like Greek to ordinary people was as simple as a painting’s lines to her. Although complicated and extensive, with Little Pi’s hint, she quickly discovered the mystery within.

Since the Western Alliance had been driven out of the Catalonia Star System, the main conflict between both sides concentrated on the Salamanca Jump Point. Leefer wanted to attack forward; the opponent wanted to counterattack.

From the recent combat data, both sides scored offensive and defensive attempts with little difference in victories or losses.

The situation at the Bentley Duke Star System Jump Point was roughly the same.

But because this star system’s strategic geographic importance was far below Salamanca, the scale of force deployments, engagement, and battle intensity were all far lower in the Salamanca direction.

However, Margaret’s data analysis pointed out that although Western Alliance forces in the Bentley Duke Star System were sparse, it shouldn’t be reason enough for Leefer to easily achieve a major victory!

This overturned her theory upon first sight of the battle report.

Before this, without access to detailed Ryan Battlefield situation maps, she speculated from wordings on the battle report that Leefer employed a feint strategy, creating a false appearance of main force assaults in Salamanca direction with superior troops, then suddenly attacking Bentley Duke Star System to capture the jump point at once.

But looking at the data from the demonstration diagram, Leefer’s attempt to achieve such tactics is simply a fantasy.

Know that data don’t lie.

From the prior confrontations, Leefer’s troops didn’t hold much advantage in battle power. Across several clashes, their data were quite balanced. This indicated that on the opposite side of Leefer, a skillful Western Alliance commander stood, capable of matching Leefer in command capabilities and troop combat strength.
