After closing the bathroom door, Illustrious let out a sigh of relief, thinking to herself: "That was close, so close. I almost did something as beastly as pushing my little sister down. Thankfully, I controlled myself, or else I would have committed a grave mistake. If I had pushed my little sister down, she would definitely hate me, and it wouldn't be worth the loss."
Seeing Illustrious close the door, Unicorn felt a wave of disappointment. Her sister hadn't pushed her down after all. Was she not pretty enough? Was that why she couldn't pique her sister's interest?
In no time, Unicorn changed into her panties and clothes, opened the door, and upon seeing Illustrious, said: "Sister, sorry to keep you waiting."
"Mhm! Let's go! I heard you like riding that Ferris wheel, so let's go play that next!" Illustrious took Unicorn's hand and headed toward the amusement park.
On the way, Illustrious noticed that Unicorn was walking a bit slowly, so she asked with concern: "Are you tired? If so, let's rest on that chair for a bit!"
"I'm sorry, Sister!" Because her stamina wasn't good, Unicorn began to blame herself.
"Silly little sister, what are you apologizing for? It's alright." Illustrious smiled and patted Unicorn's head.
Illustrious brought Unicorn to a bench and sat down. The weather was a bit hot, so Unicorn took a fan out of her rigging space and waved it in the air to cool Illustrious down.
"Stop fanning. You're here to rest, and you'll just get more tired. It's not worth it." Illustrious snatched the fan from Unicorn and began fanning her instead.
To avoid keeping her sister waiting for too long, Unicorn began to sit quietly to recover her stamina.
"Delicious ice cream! Come and buy some! Don't miss out while passing by!" A mobile ice cream cart appeared about fifty meters away from Illustrious.
Unicorn's eyes lit up immediately. Seeing this, Illustrious smiled and said: "Do you want some? Stay here and wait a moment; I'll go buy some for you."
"Sister, you're so kind!" Unicorn said sweetly.
"Obviously! Of course I'm kind!" Illustrious stood up, put her hands on her hips, and said proudly: "What flavor do you like?"
"I want Sister's flavor!" Unicorn said with an expectant look.
"Flick!" Illustrious flicked Unicorn on the forehead with her finger. "Who taught you that? You don't learn good things, but you learn this stuff."
"Ayanami taught me," Unicorn said, covering her forehead, feeling a bit of pain.
"That Ayanami, she's really up to no good. It seems like when we get back, I'll have to properly educate her, otherwise there's no telling what kind of mess my cute little sister will be taught to become." Illustrious said with a serious expression: "Be serious now, tell me what flavor, or I'll just buy a random one! If you don't like it, you'll only have yourself to blame."
"Then strawberry flavor, please!" Unicorn said after thinking carefully for a moment.
"Strawberry, huh? Alright! Be a good girl and wait here, don't run around, don't talk to strangers, and definitely don't eat anything given to you by strangers, you hear me?" Illustrious instructed sternly.
"Alright! I'm not a little kid anymore, I understand these things. Besides, Sister, you aren't going very far from me. If I encounter any bad guys, I can just scream, right?" Seeing Illustrious treat her like a child, Unicorn became unhappy. Master Ayanami had said that if you want to be with someone you like, you must be on equal footing. If the other person always treats you like a child, they won't fall in love with you.
"Unicorn is going through a rebellious phase; it really makes your sister sad! I clearly didn't raise you wrong!" Illustrious felt distressed, shook her head, and finally walked toward the ice cream cart.
As soon as Illustrious arrived at the ice cream cart, a large group of men passing by swarmed over, hoping to use various methods to have an encounter with her.
A black-haired man threw down a towel, wanting Illustrious to pick it up, but Illustrious didn't even bother; she stepped right on it, dirtying the towel immediately. The man's expression turned ugly at once.
A Yellow-Haired Man wanted to stick ice cream onto Illustrious's chest. After dirtying her clothes, he planned to use that as an excuse to invite her out for a meal, but Illustrious saw through his movements and dodged.
The ice cream stuck directly onto a muscular man standing next to Illustrious. The muscular man grabbed the Yellow-Haired Man and dragged him to a secluded spot to give him a beating.
A brown-haired man was even more direct. He rushed toward Illustrious, intending to knock her over. That way, just like the male lead in a Sakura Empire manga who knocks over a girl, he could grope her, then start by saying, "Sorry, I didn't mean to," and eventually, after overcoming many difficulties together, they would end up together.
Seeing the brown-haired man rushing over, Illustrious gave him a light pat, sending him flying six meters away. He ended up with his head stuck in a trash can, his legs kicking continuously.
"Hiss!" Seeing Illustrious send the brown-haired man flying with a light pat, the large group of men couldn't help but gasp. This woman was terrifying! She wasn't someone they could afford to provoke! Time to run, time to run.
The group of men ran away from the scene instantly, as if Illustrious were a fierce beast.
"Boss, give me one strawberry-flavored ice cream and one mango-flavored ice cream," Illustrious said to the ice cream vendor in front of her.
"Hey! Thanks, beautiful lady. Your arrival really made business at my little shop boom. Considering you brought me so much business, I'll give it to you for free!" Most of the large group of men from before had bought ice cream from the vendor, so the vendor was very grateful to Illustrious.
"Then thank you, Boss!" Taking the ice cream, Illustrious thanked him.
"Don't mention it, come again next time," the ice cream vendor said, grinning.
...
Not long after Illustrious left, a black-haired middle-aged man walked over to Unicorn. The black-haired man had a very bright smile. "Little friend! Are you here all by yourself?"
Unicorn said with an innocent and cute look: "No! I have a sister, but she went to buy ice cream for me."
Hearing that she had a sister but that she wouldn't be back immediately, the black-haired man's eyes rolled, and he took a lollipop from behind his back and said: "Little friend, Uncle will give you a lollipop. Do you want to eat it?"
"I want to eat it!" Unicorn snatched the lollipop from the black-haired man, sniffed it with her nose, and then put it in her mouth and licked it.
"Is it good?" the black-haired uncle asked.
"It's delicious! Thank you, Uncle!" Unicorn said gratefully.
"Little friend! Let me tell you! Uncle has even more delicious things, but I didn't bring them with me. I put them in a secret place. Do you want to go to that place with Uncle?" the black-haired uncle said with a squinting smile.
"No!" Unicorn refused flatly.
"Why? That place has lots of delicious things!" the black-haired uncle said.
"Sister said I can't talk to strangers, and I can't eat things from strangers," Unicorn replied while eating the lollipop.
Seeing Unicorn eat his things without any vigilance, the black-haired man thought Unicorn would be easy to abduct. Rich people loved little girls the most, and selling her to a rich person would fetch a good price.
The plan had been going very smoothly, but he hadn't expected Unicorn to suddenly say that. He immediately asked Unicorn in confusion: "Then why are you talking to me, and why did you eat my things?"
Unicorn smiled sweetly and said: "First, Uncle, you can't beat me. I'm talking to you, but I'm not afraid; on the contrary, you should be afraid of me. Second, I just sniffed the lollipop, and there's no poison or sleeping drugs in it, so it's safe to eat."
Was this little girl a dog? He really hadn't put anything strange in the lollipop. The black-haired man couldn't help but marvel at how amazing this little girl was; she could actually smell whether there was a problem with the lollipop just by sniffing it. That was too magical! But the comment about him not being able to beat Unicorn made him feel strange. "Just a little girl like you, with no combat power at all? I'd be afraid of you? Little friend, you're really good at joking!"
Unicorn said confidently: "No, I am indeed stronger than you. This isn't just talk. You are not worth mentioning in my eyes. I only need to move my hand to knock you down."
"Hahaha! You're killing me! Alright then, use your full strength and punch Uncle hard in the chest. Let me see how strong you are." The black-haired uncle exposed his chest and said.
"But Uncle, you'll die if I do that! My punch is no joke." Raising her fist, Unicorn said worriedly: "If I accidentally kill you, won't I have to be held responsible?"
Looking at Unicorn's soft, pink little fist, the black-haired uncle laughed disdainfully. "Die? You really want to laugh me to death! Hahaha! How about this! Hit with your full strength. If you kill me, you don't have to be responsible. I said it. Come on!"
After getting confirmation that she wouldn't be held responsible, Unicorn made her move. She clenched her fingers into a fist, concentrated the power of a Ship Girl into it, looked at the black-haired uncle's chest in front of her, and swung her fist hard.
Unicorn actually didn't listen to the black-haired uncle's words and didn't use her full strength with this punch. Because if she had used her full strength, it wouldn't be as simple as the black-haired uncle being sent flying backward; he would have been smashed into pulp by her punch.
Seeing Unicorn's small, pink fist coming at him, the black-haired man didn't take it to heart.
This little girl was someone he could knock out with a single punch; as for trash like this, he figured that even 100 Unicorns punching him wouldn't be enough to kill him.
The fist collided with the black-haired man's chest, causing it to slowly cave in.
His expression shifted from disdain to shock; his ruddy complexion turned pale blue, his eyes widened, and his pupils constricted.
"Wuaa!"
The immense pain made the black-haired man cry out.
The powerful force of Unicorn's blow sent him flying backward, landing on the grass over ten meters away, where he rolled his eyes back and passed out.
After knocking out the black-haired man with a single punch, Unicorn took out her phone and called the police station.
"Hello! Uncle Policeman! Hello, I encountered a kidnapper here; he tried to abduct me.
Hmm! You're asking how I am? I'm fine!
The kidnapper was knocked out by a passing big brother. Please come quickly and arrest him. I'll tell you the location..."
After learning that the police would arrive shortly, Unicorn put away her phone and began eating her lollipop.
A while later, Illustrious returned holding two ice creams.
Seeing the lollipop in Unicorn's hand, she asked in confusion, "Unicorn, where did you get that lollipop?"
As a good younger sister, Unicorn didn't hide anything: "A kind uncle gave it to me. He left right after giving it to me."
Illustrious frowned, displeased. "What did I say before I left?
Didn't I tell you not to talk to strangers and not to eat anything given to you by strangers?
Why don't you listen! Throw it away quickly. Who knows if there's anything strange in there."
"Oh! I understand." Seeing that Illustrious was angry, Unicorn could only obey and tossed the lollipop into a nearby trash can.
Seeing how obedient Unicorn was, Illustrious's attitude softened.
She sat down on a chair and handed the strawberry ice cream to Unicorn.
"What a good girl! Here, this is the strawberry ice cream you wanted."
Holding the strawberry ice cream, Unicorn said happily, "Thank you, Sister! I'm digging in! Mmm! It's so delicious!"
"Is that so? That's great." Seeing how happy Unicorn was, Illustrious's own mood lifted.
She looked at her own mango ice cream and began to eat it as well.
Unicorn ate very quickly; by the time Illustrious had only eaten a third of hers, Unicorn had already finished hers entirely.
Looking at Illustrious's ice cream, which had traces of her saliva on it, Unicorn couldn't help but swallow.
She had a bold idea.
Seeing Unicorn drooling and staring at her intently, Illustrious stopped eating her mango ice cream, turned her head, and said to Unicorn, "You finished so fast? If you don't mind, I can give you mine!"
Illustrious held out the mango ice cream she had been eating toward Unicorn.
"Sister, I don't mind!" Unicorn snatched it away, fearing that Illustrious might change her mind.
Unicorn gazed at the mango ice cream, noticing the traces of her sister's saliva on it.
The saliva sparkled with a crystal-clear luster under the sunlight.
Swallowing, Unicorn didn't hesitate any longer and immediately began to eat it.
After taking a bite, Unicorn smiled happily.
This was her sister's taste! It was truly delicious! It was easily the best ice cream she had ever eaten.
Seeing Unicorn eat with such joy, Illustrious was a bit confused.
She felt that it tasted quite ordinary—not particularly delicious, but not bad either. It was just average.
After Unicorn finished her ice cream and had rested, Illustrious took her by the hand and went to the Ferris wheel.
After queuing for a while, they followed the staff's instructions and stepped into a Ferris wheel cabin.
The Ferris wheel cabin rose slowly, drifting further and further from the ground.
Sitting together, Illustrious and Unicorn looked through the glass and could see the entire landscape below, which looked quite beautiful.
Unicorn slowly rested her head on Illustrious's shoulder.
Illustrious placed her hand on Unicorn's head, stroking her silky hair, and said, "This Ferris wheel is quite high! Are you scared, Unicorn?"
"I'm not! The Ferris wheel rises very slowly, so I have no reason to be afraid. And most importantly..." Unicorn trailed off.
"Most importantly, what?" Illustrious asked curiously.
"Most importantly, Sister is by my side, so I feel very safe. That's why I'm not afraid at all," Unicorn said with a sweet smile.
