"Ding! A civilian player has attacked a VIP player. Activating automatic lightning defense over the body and consciousness. The civilian player's abilities are ineffective against your lightning body."
"Ding! Insufficient energy. Immunity failed."
"Ding! Congratulations to the VIP player for being controlled by a civilian player for the first time. Reward granted: Mental Defense Mechanism — all hypnosis and control effects will be ineffective against the player. The reward will be issued in five minutes."
"Ding! Congratulations to the VIP player for making a confession for the first time. Reward: one Chanel lipstick."
At that moment, Chen Si suddenly felt an overwhelming surge of affection toward Krista Words he couldn't resist were about to spill out of his throat.
System, damn you!
That was the last thought Chen Si had as he struggled, before his eyes turned fervent.
"Krista, my goddess! I want to warm your bed! Goddess, marry me!" Chen Si suddenly dropped to one knee and confessed loudly.
"Chen Si! Y-you! Aren't you with Krista…?"
Eren, in the next cell, heard everything and froze, his mouth wide open in disbelief. He couldn't believe those words came from Chen Si.
Two seconds later, Chen Si regained control.
Hmm? He could only be controlled for two seconds? Not as good as Levi? Levi could only be controlled for 1.5 seconds. Winyaad thought briefly—this was probably because Chen Si was injured. It would likely be much harder to control him in the future.
Winyaad could only control people with Ackerman bloodlines and intelligent Titans for a very short time, and under heavy restrictions—she had to maintain eye contact for a period. For ordinary humans or Pure Titans, a single glance was enough.
"Little brother, that's not how you confess. There's no sincerity at all," Winyaad said with a light laugh, tapping her chin. This was just a bit of her mischief and an experiment with her ability.
"I'm a man of my word. You'd better watch your bed tonight," Chen Si said as he stood up slowly, smiling, veins twitching on his forehead.
"Oh? Big sister welcomes you anytime," Winyaad replied, bending slightly as she brushed her hair behind her ear. Her slightly wavy brown hair fell along the curve of her hips.
Chen Si swallowed. After spending so much time around younger girls, facing a mature woman like this was… difficult to handle.
"Hm?" Winyaad noticed something in Chen Si's hand and reached in, pulling it out.
"Oh! Give that back!" Chen Si panicked. This unreliable system had just dropped it into his hand out of nowhere—he had planned to give it to Mikasa and the others.
"It's a Chanel lipstick! Oh my god, give it to me! Finally, something decent to use," Winyaad said excitedly. She twisted it open and was already applying it to her lips, completely enamored.
The outdated cosmetics on Paradis Island had long driven her crazy.
"Hey, sis, why did you just use it like that?" Chen Si said helplessly.
"What? Were you planning to give it to some girl? It's fine—girls don't mind sharing. I can even help her with makeup. One is enough for both of us," Winyaad said after applying it, now looking at Chen Si with a slightly greedy gaze.
"Chen Si! What is that? If it's for girls, make sure to save one for Mikasa!" Eren shouted when he heard it was a cosmetic item.
"Uh… well… it might not be just for two… uh…" Chen Si stammered awkwardly.
Winyaad narrowed her eyes.
"So changing environments really brings out a man's true nature. In the end, all men are the same," she said coldly.
Chen Si curled his lips but didn't argue.
Winyaad turned to leave, then suddenly thought of something.
"If you get foundation or eyeliner in the future, let me know," she said, throwing him a flirtatious glance.
"Depends on what you can offer me," Chen Si replied, narrowing his eyes.
This woman is good, Chen Si sighed inwardly. She clearly has no feelings for me at all.
"Well then, little brother, please take care of me in the future," Winyaad said, leaning close to the bars and breathing softly by his ear.
"Women are all like this. You were clearly displeased when you heard I might give things to several girls, but now for cosmetics, you're still playing along. We're all the same.
You and I are both travelers from another world. Meeting here is fate. Just follow your desires—there's no need to pretend," Chen Si said coldly.
Winyaad frowned slightly. For a moment, she felt he wasn't wrong. They really weren't that different.
Right… we've already crossed worlds. Nothing really matters anymore.
"Winyaad." She extended her hand through the bars.
"Chen Si. My real name," he replied, reaching out and shaking her hand.
Just as she was about to pull away, Chen Si suddenly yanked her forward, slamming her against the iron bars.
"Ah!" Winyaad gasped in shock, struggling as her waist was caught by Chen Si, unable to break free.
His other hand moved as well—
"I can tell you agree with me," he whispered near her ear. "Right now… I feel like following my desires a bit."
Winyaad felt his breath against her ear, his low voice sending a strange sensation through her body. Her eyes softened briefly—then sharpened again.
She broke free and slapped toward him. Chen Si stepped back, but three iron bars were bent from the force of her strike.
"Get lost!" Winyaad snapped, her cheeks slightly flushed as she quickly regained composure and walked away without looking back.
A faint smile appeared on Chen Si's lips as he recalled the feeling in his hands. Mature women and young girls really were different.
"Chen Si, what did you do?" Eren asked, utterly confused after hearing the strange noises.
"I was sparring with Miss Chis just now. She narrowly lost—I got lucky," Chen Si said calmly.
"Really? That's amazing, Chen Si! She's a veteran of the Survey Corps!" Eren said with admiration.
Dungeon Exit
Levi leaned against the wall. When Winyaad came out, he glanced at her and stepped forward.
"Why did it take so long?"
"Chen Si is from the same hometown as me. We chatted for a bit," she replied, slightly unnatural, though nothing showed on her face.
Levi didn't doubt her and simply nodded. If it were him meeting someone from the Underground, he'd also talk for a while.
Why do I feel so uneasy…
Eren turned over on his bed, chains clinking.
Is Chis part of the Yeagerists… or Hange's faction? What about Mikasa and Armin…? Will the Survey Corps and our group fall apart in the future…?
Chen Si sat by his bed, deep in thought as well.
Separated by a wall, both he and Eren were lost in their own thoughts.
