It's time to give out the rings, Admiral!

Hearing the sound of Xiaofei pushing open the door, and seeing Xiaofei's familiar face appear in front of her, the girl standing by the door blushed instantly, thinking about the shameless things she and her brother had done when Xiaofei wasn't around.

"Ah, what are you doing standing here, little unicorn? Hmm... what's wrong? Did something happen? Your face is so red..."

Upon entering, he saw the unicorn's gentle face, and the girl's flushed cheeks caught Phelps's questioning gaze, immediately prompting him to ask questions...

What did Chapter 440 of Volume 1 do?

"No...nothing happened, Sister Xiaofei...the unicorn is just a little hot..."

Looking at the young woman with long, flaxen hair in front of her, her lovely face was as red as a ripe apple, as if it would drip water at any moment. The little girl quickly shook her head gently at Phelps in front of her.

The girl is not lacking in courage; she can be very brave for her beloved brother. However, she is still a shy and pitiful girl at heart. Although the little girl has enough courage to express her love to her beloved brother, she is clearly not ready to let her older sister, Xiaofei, know about the embarrassing things she just did to her brother.

The shy girl nervously pinched the cute hem of her dress. Because of the sticky and uncomfortable feeling between her legs, she couldn't help but rub her beautiful legs, which were covered by pretty white stockings. The little girl lowered her head shyly, not daring to look Xiaofei in the eye.

"Since... since you're back, Sister Xiaofei... then let Sister Xiaofei take care of my brother!... Unicorn... Unicorn just sweated a little, so he wants to go back to his room to change his clothes..."

Worried that her older sister Xiaofei would notice her strange behavior, the girl's bright eyes shone with a hint of embarrassment. She tugged at the hem of her skirt again, as if that would cover up the still obvious faint water stains on her stockings.

"Is that so? Okay then, little unicorn, you go back and change your clothes first. I'll take care of Dad for now."

"Yes, Sister Xiaofei."

The girl succeeded, or more accurately, because her little sister Phelps was preoccupied with worrying about her admiral father. So even though Phelps was slightly suspicious of why the girl was acting so nervous and shy, he didn't stop Unicorn to ask her for clarification.

Not only was she worried about being discovered by Sister Xiaofei, but also because of the increasingly uncomfortable feeling in her body, the girl, who was too embarrassed to bear it, quickly ran out of the cabin after receiving Sister Xiaofei's response. However, in the instant that the little girl missed Phelps wanting to go back to his room to change his panties and new stockings, she did not notice that her Sister Xiaofei sniffed and then suddenly frowned.

The girl frowned slightly, because just a moment ago, she seemed to clearly smell a familiar and comforting scent on her unicorn sister. Although the scent was very faint, she was certain that she hadn't mistaken it, because it was her father's scent. Just the night before last, she had been transformed into her beloved father's little woman, little wife, and little lady, belonging only to him, in this scent that she loved so much.

No wonder the unicorn girl was so nervous just now.

She let out a quiet breath, and Phelps, her face slightly flushed, glanced at her father lying on the bed in the room. She wondered what the unicorn had been doing with her father while she was away. She patted her small chest slightly, and the lovely girl suddenly pouted her cute lips with a hint of jealousy.

Ugh... Honestly, even though things have gotten this bad, Daddy still won't stop. Doing that kind of thing with Unicorn Sister, isn't he worried about making his cold worse? If I'd known, I would have had Sister Lexington talk to Daddy more... Hmm... I don't know how far Unicorn Sister and Daddy went... They actually did that kind of thing while I wasn't looking, and didn't even tell Phil... Phil hasn't been affectionate with Daddy for days, and she wants to be affectionate with him too...

The girl pouted jealously, but touching her still slightly aching lower abdomen, she couldn't help but sigh and furrow her gentle brow once more. Yes, what could she do even if she were here? She was still on her period; even if she were here, there was nothing she could do with her father.

Ugh, just thinking about it makes me hate girls' periods. Not only do they have to come every month, but they also feel uncomfortable for several days every time. And when they're on their period, they can't do naughty things with their dads. It's so annoying...

"But...hehe..."

Gently touching her flat, smooth belly beneath her clothes, the little girl frowned slightly, then seemed to suddenly remember something and chuckled softly.

Although menstruation is always a hassle and can stain clothes if you're not careful, it's still indispensable. If I can be like Lexington and give birth to a lovely baby for my dad in the future, then even if it's this troublesome every month, it will feel very worthwhile and meaningful!

Moreover... not just myself, but if all the ship girls were to choose, I estimate that 99.9% of them would make the same choice as me without hesitation. The remaining 0.1% would think for a second or two before making the same choice as me. After all, being able to give birth to a lovely life for their beloved admiral is probably one of the most meaningful things in a ship girl's life.

The girl smiled sweetly. Although she was surprised that her shy unicorn sister would do such a thing to her father so quickly, she wasn't surprised at all from beginning to end. After all, her father was always so popular with the girls in their port.

As for why it was the unicorn who did that to Dad, and not Dad who had a crush on the unicorn and did that to his little sister, well, of course! Dad is so oblivious, and he's got an IV drip in his arm right now. Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't do such a thing. Otherwise, I wouldn't have tricked him into my bedroom in the first place...

Shyly touching her slightly flushed cheeks, even her aching lower abdomen seemed to warm up a little. Carrying a small plate of fragrant and delicious snacks, the girl slowly walked into the bedroom...

"Fei'er, didn't you say you were going to the infirmary to get my medicine? Why did it take you so long to come back?"

"Hehe, actually, it's because my little unicorn sister said she wanted someone to take care of you, that's why I said that. I just went to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients for dinner, and I also baked some gingerbread for Dad. Do you want some, Dad? Come and have a taste."

"Wow, it smells so good! Fei'er's cooking is getting better and better."

"Hehe, it's good that you're with Daddy. But, did Daddy do something to Unicorn Sister just now? I saw her run away shyly..."

Volume 1, Chapter 441: It's better to just forget about it after all.

"Hehe, as long as Daddy likes it. But, did Daddy do something to Unicorn Sister just now? I saw her run away shyly..."

Nestled in the warm bed, the boy leaned back on the soft pillows, feeling a little uneasy. Although he and the unicorn girl had already done their mischief before Fei'er arrived and had even hastily cleaned up any potential sources of exposure, he couldn't help but panic when he saw his daughter's gentle and virtuous face as she walked into the bedroom, and when he heard her teasing gaze and the girl's question to him.

Did Fei'er discover something? But I've handled it all so well. I wiped the unicorn's face clean and hid the tissues in the trash can under the bed. Or was it that Fei'er noticed something because the unicorn was too obvious when she left...?

"No, no. Didn't Unicorn say she was a little hot? So, Phil, you must have seen wrong."

Somewhat embarrassed, the boy, feeling guilty as he was stared at by his daughter's bright, sparkling eyes, couldn't help but look away. His fingers were held in the girl's hand, and the warmth from her fingertips seemed to sense the slight tension and guilt in her father's heart. Smiling, the girl sweetly pursed her lips, then slowly leaned down and gently bit the boy's ear with her warm, luscious lips.

"Hehe...Really, Daddy? But I think I smell something strange. It's the kind of smell that only comes out when Daddy wants a baby. And...Daddy, you kissed the unicorn sister, didn't you?"

The girl smiled sweetly and charmingly in front of the boy. Coupled with her sweet voice and beautiful face that resembled his wife's, and feeling her soft breath, the boy, who had just entered a state of sage mode, couldn't help but feel a little flutter in his heart towards his little wife.

But after the girl finished speaking sweetly, she suddenly raised her head and gently twitched her pink nose in front of the boy. Seeing her father's visibly embarrassed expression, she mischievously left a light kiss on his forehead. Then, with her fair fingertips, she gently touched her father's slightly swollen lips with a touch of tenderness.

Just like me, the unicorn sister had no experience kissing her father for the first time. So when she kissed him, all she did was suck on his lips, making them swollen and red. It was quite surprising that the unicorn sister was so bold as to do these things to her father.

"Ah...that's...actually, the unicorn and I...uh...I said I bit it myself, would you believe me, Phil?"

The boy, who thought he had hidden it well, blushed with embarrassment when the girl discovered his little secret in no time. Hearing his daughter's sly and charming voice, seeing Fei'er's affectionate and adorable expression as she clung to him like a cat, feeling the soft touch of the girl on his arm and the light kiss on his forehead, he touched his head shyly. Once again, the boy felt the beauty of his girls.

Even if she didn't admit that she had done something bad with the unicorn behind Fei'er's back, if it were an ordinary girl, and she found out that she had done that kind of thing to a cute little sister, she would probably have already picked up her phone and started dialing 110 to report it to the police. She wouldn't be talking sweetly to this suspected lolicon like this.

The boy scratched his head awkwardly, but the little girl in front of him had already let out a soft laugh.

"Hehe, if that's what Daddy says, then Fei'er will believe it."

"But even if Dad wants to do something naughty with Unicorn Sister, he should take care of his health first. Dad still has a cold. If the cold gets worse, Lexington Sister will definitely be angry again when she finds out tomorrow."

The little girl frowned slightly. She glanced at her father's cheek, then touched his forehead, which had already cooled down. She breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but sigh again.

This awful period, why did it have to come when I was on the boat with my dad? I want to do naughty things with him too, I want him to fill me up again like he did a few days ago. Life on the boat without my dad's comfort feels meaningless and bleak!

"Ugh... I really hate periods the most..."

Looking at her own resentful and pitiful expression and face reflected in the mirror by the bed, the gentle girl couldn't help but pout her lips, envying her unicorn sister for getting her father's love so quickly. She thought that if she had been able to muster up the courage like that before, she might have become her father's wife long ago. The girl's lovely face turned slightly red as if she remembered something.

Speaking of mustering courage, even though my period is here today and we can't use the front door, I could still have Dad go through the back door. I just don't know if Dad would like it… umm… I guess I'll pass. Letting Dad go into that kind of place is just too embarrassing! Um… I bet even Lexington has tried it… I guess I'll pass…

She pinched the hem of her snow-white skirt, patted her flushed cheeks, and tried to clear her mind of all her chaotic thoughts. Her most important task now was to take good care of her father and prevent his cold from getting worse. Otherwise, both she and her sister Lexington would feel sorry for him. As for doing bad things, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future!

She silently squeezed the boy's hand in her palm, and then looked up at the IV drip bottle hanging by the bedside. The two bottles of medicine that were originally full now had only a little bit left, and it looked like they were about to run out.

"Ah... it's almost finished. Dad, wait a moment, I'll go get the doctor right now."

The girl touched her face and smoothed out her slightly wrinkled dress. Phelps stood up, but before she could turn around, she saw the unicorn, who had changed into another beautiful white dress, shyly walk into the cabin.

"Sister Xiaofei, let me go. Sister Xiaofei, you can stay here with my brother..." the shy little girl said to her.

Volume 1, Chapter 442: The Telegram from Lexington

The sea outside the porthole was vast and tranquil. A gentle sea breeze blew into the cabin through the open window, making the already cool cabin even more comfortable and peaceful. The passenger ship rocked slightly, and the sound of the waves mingled with the occasional clear cries of seagulls flying past. Far from making the rhythmic rocking unbearable, it felt more like a cradle for a baby, making people feel lazy and serene.

The little girl's small nostrils still carried the scent that belonged only to her older brother. Her cheeks were flushed, and she couldn't wait to return to the room that belonged to her and her sister, Radiant, to change her clothes.

The damp white silk clung to the girl's delicate skin, and the wet panties made her feel uncomfortable. She went to the wardrobe that her older sister, Guanghui, had tidied up in the room, took out a brand new dress, and the little girl couldn't wait to change out of the light-colored dress she was wearing. It was the second outfit she had changed out of today.

The snow-white silk stockings still carried a faint scent that made one blush and their heart race. After removing the smooth stockings that felt like a second skin for a young girl and her beautiful but already soaked panties, the innocent girl stood in front of the mirror next to the wardrobe, slightly stunned.

In the bright mirror, at midday, the gentle sunlight shone on the girl's alabaster skin, leaving a dazzling and beautiful glow. Her slender, snow-white neck and delicate collarbones gleamed with a beautiful and soft light. Her soft, full breasts, her round and long legs, and her endearing face with its charming and pleasing rosy blush made her so beautiful, so breathtakingly gorgeous.

Several minutes had passed since she ran back to her room from Xiao Fei's presence, but the young girl still felt her face burning when she thought about her embarrassing behavior in front of Xiao Fei.

There's nothing shameful about falling in love with her brother, and doing those things with her beloved brother is something every ship girl experiences. But when she recalls how she became dizzy and weak-kneed just because of his fingers in front of her brother, her delicate skin turned as red as burning coals, making her feel hot.

Her brother's breathing, his expression, and the way he touched her head to encourage her—everything was vivid in her mind. The little girl touched her soft, flat stomach, and a faint smile involuntarily appeared on her rosy cheeks.

She still remembered the look of surprise and fascination on her brother's face when she took off her skirt in front of him. Although she was always worried that her figure was not as mature and beautiful as her sister Guanghui, and that she could not win her brother's favor, her heart was still as sweet as if she had drunk honey when her brother showed her that kind of expression.

Although she couldn't reach the final step with her brother in the end, and couldn't completely hand over everything to him like her sister Guanghui did, her brother said that he loved her too. He said that when they reached Tianshui and met Xiaorou, he would make Unicorn his sister who belonged only to him. Unicorn believed in that kind of brother, so of course she was willing to wait for him.

But the unicorn loved her brother so much that she seemed to have become a bad child. Now she finally understood why her sister Glorious made such beautiful and soothing sounds every night when they rested together.

Just smelling her brother's scent, looking at his face, and touching him with her fingers was already so comforting. The little girl couldn't help but start to look forward to how comfortable it would be when they arrived in Tianshui and her brother used his treasure to turn the unicorn into a sister who belonged only to him, as promised.

The girl was both dreaming and anticipating. Falling into the bathtub with her brother and causing him to catch a cold and fever was originally a terrible and self-reproachful thing for the girl, but now it has become a bond for her and her brother to express their feelings to each other. She touched her soft belly one last time, the most important and mysterious place for a girl, and the place that her brother would cherish in the future. The sweet girl took out a new set of clothes and put on the pretty little white dress and a pair of new white stockings.

She patted her still slightly flushed cheeks, tidied herself up in front of the mirror, and made sure there wasn't a single flaw. Eager to see her brother's face, which she adored, again, the girl in her little leather shoes tiptoed back to the cabin where her brother and sister Xiaofei were.

"But even if Dad wants to do something naughty with Unicorn Sister, he should take care of his health first. Dad still has a cold. If the cold gets worse, Lexington Sister will definitely be angry again when she finds out tomorrow."

"Ah... it's almost finished. Dad, wait a moment, I'll go get the doctor right now."

Her brother's bedroom still felt like a safe haven, making the girl feel so at ease. However, as soon as she entered the cabin, she heard Xiao Fei's sweet voice. It seemed that Xiao Fei had noticed what she and her brother had just done there. The embarrassed girl immediately covered her burning red face again.

A delicate and shy mist clouded her light purple eyes, and a blush crept up her neck to her delicate and lovely earlobes. However, before the girl could become numb with shame, she heard what her older sister Xiaofei said next. The beautiful girl, who had secretly returned to her brother's bedroom, had already reached out her hand to her older sister Xiaofei.

"Sister Xiaofei, let me go. Sister Xiaofei will stay here with my brother..."

The shy little girl spoke softly, when suddenly she heard the pitiful voice of the unicorn behind her ear. Phelps turned around and showed the girl a surprised expression.

"A unicorn? Do you want to go in my place?"

"Yes, Sister Xiaofei."

The little girl could understand, because the unicorn used to be such a shy and timid child. But the unicorn is different now, because she has her beloved older brother. Because her beloved older brother can always give the unicorn courage, the unicorn also wants to become a brave child, or at least, dream of becoming a child who can help her brother.

The unicorn left alone, leaving the father and daughter, still somewhat bewildered and wondering why their sister had suddenly become so proactive, exchanging bewildered glances. Phelps stared at her father's face, which had captured her heart, and the boy and girl exchanged wide eyes until the girl couldn't help but burst out laughing. Just then, she suddenly realized she had received a telegram that seemed to be from her sister in Lexington…

Volume 1, Chapter 443: I Don't Understand

The vast sea was deep and azure, golden sunlight mingled with a slightly cool sea breeze that brushed against the skin, bringing a salty, damp, and stifling feeling. The weather nearby remained clear and gentle, sunlight scattering across the sea in patches of bright light that stung the eyes. But far beyond the horizon, the inky black sky, shrouded in thick, dark clouds, resembled a gaping maw of blood in the darkness, sending chills down one's spine.

The gradually strengthening sea breeze blew against the dark sky towards the outer sea, with occasional muffled thunder and leaping lightning, making people feel worried and panicked about this abnormal weather.

Beyond the sea shrouded in dark clouds, gazing at the ominous, cursed surface of the deep sea, a beautiful woman with magnificent, flowing black hair, her back tousled by the damp sea breeze, stood on the undulating water, holding an exquisite longbow and adorned with fox-ear-like ornaments. Her brows were furrowed, and her expression was somewhat somber as she stared at the scene before her.

A beautiful and elegant kimono draped the tall and slender body of the black-haired woman. Her gentle and delicate temperament, like that of a Yamato Nadeshiko, made her look beautiful and graceful even when she was frowning and thinking about something. Akagi stood on the sea with a slight frown. She had just launched her carrier-based aircraft and was looking at the familiar scene in the distance, seemingly lost in thought.

It had been a week since they left their residence in the eastern island nation. According to the original plan, after failing to find the admiral, Shinano and the others would leave and head to the southern sea to find an uninhabited island that, according to information obtained from the family's servants, possessed resources that their port area desperately needed.

After receiving no news about the admiral, as planned, Shinano and the others replenished their ammunition and fuel and set off from their base on that island nation, preparing to search for that uninhabited island that might or might not have resources. However, after only four days at sea, they encountered this strange and unusual sea surface and had to stop the entire team.

As a veteran aircraft carrier as experienced as Lexington in the port area, Akagi was intimately familiar with the seas before her, shrouded in dense abyssal miasma. Back when the admiral was still in the port, she had been assigned to numerous expeditionary fleets against the Abyssal fleets led by Abyssal flagships. Based on her extensive experience from those countless battles, she was certain that this sea area was the site of a new, brewing Abyssal assault.

The occurrence of deep-sea impacts follows no predictable rules. The only foreshadowing is the appearance of unusually deep and dense deep-sea miasma, as seen here. This miasma attracts and breeds new deep-sea vessels. If left unchecked, when the amount of deep-sea gas accumulating here reaches a certain level, it will form a deep-sea impact that poses a serious threat to the surrounding waters and coastline.

When the area covered by deep-sea miasma was first discovered two days ago by Ms. Taihou's carrier-based aircraft, Akagi was already 100% certain that a new deep-sea impact was about to occur here.

Knowing the danger, Akagi originally wanted to lead her sisters around this area. After all, compared to the time-consuming and laborious task of clearing this area, which would not pose a threat to the coast in the short term, they had a much more important mission. However, just as they were preparing to detour, they were spotted by a light carrier from the deep sea. Although most of the ships that followed were like miscellaneous deep-sea destroyers and light deep-sea patrols, they had to turn around and deal with the deep-sea ships that were following them.

In order to deal with these deep-sea vessels that posed no real threat, they conducted a cleanup operation for nearly two days, which also depleted a significant amount of Akagi and her crew's ammunition reserves. However, as a deep-sea assault where danger and opportunity coexisted, Akagi and her crew also received considerable rewards. In addition to Taihou and Nohide, who had already joined the team, their crew grew once again, with the addition of two more new light cruiser ship girls.

"Akagi, I'm back. Those deep-sea battlecruisers from just now have been sunk by Yamashiro and me."

Akagi was pondering, weighing whether it was worth continuing to entangle herself with the deep sea. Her long, black, flowing hair was gently blown by the moist sea breeze. Occasionally, white waves would lap at her feet, and a few glistening water droplets would splash onto her clean wooden clogs, wetting her socks and toes.

However, before Akagi could find an answer, Fusang, whose bridge was as tall as a pagoda, quietly approached her from the side. With the same pitiful Yamato Nadeshiko temperament and beautiful face, Fusang gently reached out and touched Akagi's shoulder.

"Fusang...Is that so? I knew it was the right decision to leave it to you and Yamashiro. What about Fubuki and Taihou? Have they encountered any more battles?"

She gently lowered the longbow she was holding, and listening to Fusang's gentle voice behind her, Akagi nodded slightly and smiled at her. She had just spotted a small fleet of several deep-sea battlecruisers on the sea. She had originally intended to deal with them using her own carrier-based aircraft, but Fusang and Yamashiro volunteered to do so. As the eldest sister with the highest combat power and the most trusted authority in this small group, she entrusted the task of destroying the fleet to them, and now it seemed that her choice was indeed correct.

"Yes, Fubuki, Shirayuki, and the other three sisters, along with Katori, are setting up a net ahead to keep watch. Shinano is following behind them to protect them. As for Taihou and the others, they should be behind us right now with Nobuyoshi and those two newcomers... Emizu and Hajime."

After listening to Akagi's words, Fusang thought for a moment before replying. Her slender, fair fingers unconsciously touched her cheek and the beautiful and precious hairpin in her long hair. Then, like Akagi, she also looked at the dark sky and sea in the distance with a worried expression.

Like Akagi, her face, unadorned, was still breathtakingly beautiful. Her twilight-like pupils reflected the distant, incongruous scenery. Her elegant and virtuous face carried a slight worry, melancholy, and a hint of incomprehension. She hesitated for a long time, gazing at the distant sea, but Fusang couldn't help but gently speak to Akagi beside her.

"Akagi... I still can't understand why we have to keep fighting these deep-sea creatures here. If we wanted to, we could easily get rid of them, right?"

"...We have more important things to do. We haven't searched so many cities, we haven't asked in so many places, and the Admiral is still nowhere to be found. Why...why are we wasting so much precious time on this? I don't understand..."
