As expected, there was a difference between being active and passive.
The biggest difference lay in the sense of conquest in his mind.
Helena, gentle by nature, couldn't fully let go in front of her sister.
When Levi focused on her, her cheeks flushed, and she let him advance freely, conquering every inch;
When he ignored her, she blushed shyly, playing a supporting role to help her commander achieve victories elsewhere.
Saint Louis needed no introduction. The sisters' coordination gave Levi supreme enjoyment, both physically and mentally.
By the time Levi woke up, the sun was already high in the sky.
He reached out, feeling warmth beside him.
"Commander's hands are already restless the moment he wakes up~"
Hearing that coquettish voice, it was obviously not Helena.
"Where's Helena?"
"Oh my, Commander, waking up and immediately asking about your sister… are you going to ignore me like this?" Saint Louis feigned indignation. "You'd hurt my feelings~"
Levi gave Saint Louis' chest a playful pat. "What are you acting for? You didn't spare your sister at all last night."
"Mm…"
A faint trace of resentment flashed across Saint Louis' gaze.
"Where's Helena?"
"She's shy. After giving her all last night, she's too embarrassed to face anyone now," Saint Louis said, sitting up and stretching. "So she left first."
"So, that makes you not shy at all, huh?"
Levi drank in the beautiful sight before him. "We were supposed to watch the sunrise together… and look, it's already mid-morning."
"Hehe…" Saint Louis flaunted her curves, leaning close. "The morning sun is still the sun. Who says a morning sun poking through the clouds isn't a sunrise?"
"Can't argue with that."
Levi rose and walked to the window, letting the sunlight wash over him.
Saint Louis slid behind him, her fingers boldly finding their target.
Speaking of which, last night's mission rewards had been impressive.
Having allowed the sisters to rest fully, they now woke with no signs of fatigue, cooldowns reset.
Before his physical enhancement, this would have been impossible. Last night, it would've been Levi begging for mercy, not the shipgirls shouting apologies.
Levi felt Saint Louis' soft hands. "Don't you think this efficiency is a bit… low?"
"We woke up late today. If we don't get to work soon, the port's affairs will pile up again," she replied.
"Then…" Saint Louis' tongue teased Levi's ear from behind. "Which kind of efficiency do you prefer?"
"The same as last night?"
"Let's do something different this time."
Her eyes sparkled, a sultry smile on her lips. "So this is your taste, Commander~"
She moved to the front, perched on the windowsill, looking down at him, lifting her bare foot.
Levi gazed at Saint Louis, backlit by sunlight, feeling like she was a goddess.
A sexy goddess.
…
Sitting in his office, Levi finally had time to check the system's daily mission.
"Today's Task: Play parent-child games with Laffey."
"Reward: Acquire hypnosis ability."
"Failure condition: If Laffey successfully 'takes' you during the task, the mission fails."
Laffey?
Parent-child games?
Is it what I think it is?
How do you even "take" someone in a parent-child game?
After scanning the task list, a message arrived—not from Laffey, but from Z23 (Nimi).
"Commander, can you come play with us?"
Attached was a photo.
In it, the four girls—Javelin, Nimi, Ayanami, and Laffey—sat together, seemingly bored out of their minds.
Levi's eyes lit up.
More people? Perfect.
With so many shipgirls watching, no one could forcibly take him.
No chance of losing.
Four shipgirls supervising each other? No one would sneak off!
If I fail, I'll eat Laffey's panties on the spot!
The advantage was his.
Levi quickly replied: "Sure, I'll be there soon."
…
In Laffey's room, Nimi suddenly stood up.
"Javelin?"
"What's wrong?"
"The Commander said yes!"
"What?" Javelin froze. "Said yes to what?"
Nimi waved her phone excitedly. "The Commander agreed to come play with us!"
Javelin cheered. "Yay!"
She nudged sleeping Laffey and high-fived Ayanami, now fully awake.
"Hurry! Let's clean the room to make a good impression on the Commander."
…
When Levi entered, the four girls had tidied up. The table held a brand-new strategy board game, answering his unspoken question of what they planned to do.
Strategy board game…
Well, it could count as a parent-child activity.
"Commander~"
Levi nodded, greeting the girls, and sat between Nimi and Laffey.
"This game… hasn't even been opened? Brand new?"
"Yes, we haven't played it yet," Javelin said. "Akashi said this is a game just for the Commander, so…"
Just for me?
An idea flickered in Levi's mind.
"Let me see."
The box had "Parent-Child Game" printed on it.
Nimi handed Levi scissors to open it, while Ayanami's eyes glimmered—she cared most about the game itself.
Laffey…
Still rubbing her sleepy eyes.
Levi leaned down, kissing her cheek. "Wake up, sleepyhead. Time to get moving."
…System task target is Laffey, so naturally he gave her extra attention.
Looking up, he found Nimi and Javelin staring straight at him, their meaning clear.
Levi gave each of them a quick kiss as well.
Nimi's cheeks flushed bright, Javelin's eyes nearly became spirals.
Ayanami had already unpacked and set up the board: "This is… a 1–4 player game… oh, we also need a referee."
Levi knew his role immediately. "Then I'll be the referee."
He picked up a stack of reward cards, glancing through them.
"Reward: Kiss the referee"
"Reward: Kiss the referee back"
"Reward: Sit in the referee's lap"
Levi: …
This strategy game… is it even serious?
