Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! Vol 19 Chapter 24

The golden medallion in the sky reflected off the ocean surface . The four sisters watched their ship approach the docks . The North only had two docks, one in the East and one in the West . Furthermore, the Eastern dock belonged to the military . As such, the sisters were excited to see countless boats of varying sizes in addition to people coming and going . It was their first time seeing such a lively dock . The sun had just come up, but the docks had been busy for what seemed to be hours beforehand .

Owing to it being too large, their ship wasn’t allowed to be completely moored; therefore, they had to switch to smaller boats to head over . Two small boats were lowered down from the ship .  Ying and Tanya extended forth their hands to stop the eager sisters: “Be careful . We will teach you how to get down into the boats in a bit . For now, let us go over and speak to them first . Young man, come with us . It’s your nation, so it’ll be easier if we have you . ”

The youngster nodded: “Understood . ”

The youngster nimbly grabbed onto a side of the ship . He climbed down the soft ladder and onto the small boat rocking on the water surface .

Daisy told Tanya and Ying: “We can climb a ladder!”

The four sisters’ eagerness brimmed in their eyes . Ying sighed: “All right, then . Come on down . You must be careful, though . These soft ladders are very wobbly, and so is the boat down below . Don’t fall into the water . ”

“All right . ” Daisy nodded and then looked at the soft ladder .

Daisy was first to grab the rope . Though it was somewhat foreign to her, she took her time climbing down and then hopped onto the boat . She let out a breath of relief . The youngster nervously looked at her . Daisy excitedly looked up at her sisters and shouted, “Jump, jump! It’s safe . You must be careful!”

The three sisters exchanged eye contact . They were incredibly curious about the city on shore . Nevertheless, the dangerously rocking boat on the water down below, the tall black walls of the ship as well as the ladder that was swaying in the wind, evoked fear . Daisy had always been training; she was relatively more physically conditioned than they were . Climbing the ladder, therefore, looked dangerous to them . It was scary to see Daisy swinging back and forth on the ladder . Although they wouldn’t be in trouble if they fell, their clothes would be ruined .

“I’ll go next, then,” Vera declared .

Seeing her sisters have their fear written all over their faces, Vera had to go down first, since she was the eldest . She looked down below then took in a deep breath . She discretely cast Fall Assist Spell on herself . That way, she’d be much safer even if she fell . At least it would give her room to manoeuvre if things went south . She stepped over the side of the ship and then slowly stepped onto the ladder . The soft ladder immediately began to swing, which led to her shrilling as she tightly gripped the rope . Her small body was akin to a leave being blown in the wild wind . Frightened, Daisy quickly stretched her hands out to prepare to catch her sister . Her two sisters still on deck extended their hands out to pull their sister up out of a conditioned reflex; nevertheless, Vera didn’t reach out . It wasn’t because she was brave but due to fear . She was afraid she’d fall if she took a hand off .

Ying leapt over to the top of the rope . She shouted, “Don’t be scared, Miss Vera . Don’t be scared . Tightly hold onto the rope . Don’t let go . Now, carefully step down, ensuring your foot is set each time . Go step by step . Don’t rush . Don’t panic . Understand? Don’t panic . Young man down below, are you ready?!”

Vera trembled, not daring to budge .

“Don’t be scared . Don’t be scared . Climb down step by step . Climb step by step . ”

After much encouragement, Vera finally shakily and slowly stepped down on the ladder to gradually climb down . Unfortunately, it looked dangerous as her hands were weak . The youngster grabbed the rope and tugged downwards, increasing the tension on the ladder, thereby making it easier for Vera .

Vera finally reached the boat at the bottom . She sat down on the boat . Still terrified, she quivered . Nona checked the ladder and then climbed down . The ladder was a lot steadier with the youngster pulling on it . Moreover, Nona was more physically conditioned than her elder sister . She ran about every day, after all, indirectly training herself as a result . And so, despite the danger, Nona successfully reached the boat without any trouble and then hugged her elder sister .

Vera managed to regain her composure quickly . Her eyes soon looked lively again . After recovering, she looked as though her interest was piqued and wanted to try it again .

Liu Yue was last . She looked at the ladder and the youngster . She took in a deep breath to cheer herself on . It wasn’t too bad to her since she was always earnest in physical education class at school .

Liu Yue turned around and grabbed the ladder then climbed down . When the young man saw her pure-white legs underneath her red long skirt, he turned around to stop looking . The other three sisters suddenly realised what they just did, too, so they quickly pressed down on their…

The three young girls all wore pants for ease of movement . The three dressed to match their pants . Liu Yue was the only one who couldn’t wear pants, since she couldn’t fit her big tail in pants . Noticing the risk, she yelled, “Turn around! Daisy, make sure he doesn’t peep!”

The young man swiftly turned his face away . With a red face, he yelled, “I won’t!!”

Despite never even getting a glimpse, the pure youngster couldn’t stand it already . Liu Yue slowly descended and then felt the fear of floating . However, she slowly went down and soon reached the small boat at the bottom .

The youngster kept his head turned, while Daisy intently watched him as if she’d decapitate him if he turned his head .

It was supposed to end then and there . Even Ying thought it was safe and time for her to turn around . Suddenly, something hot and red pressed up against the youngster’s face . He instinctively took a step back, thereby releasing the ladder he kept his foot on to stabilise . As a result, Liu Yue, who was still on the ladder, immediately lost her balance .

“Ah!!!”

The youngster instantly realised what he just did, so he quickly leapt over .

“What’s wrong?!!” exclaimed Ying .

Ying quickly poked her head over the edge to look down . She was reassured when she saw it was nothing serious . Falling into the water at that height was nothing serious . Moreover, the youngster had pulled Liu Yue to the edge of the boat . Liu Yue didn’t look hurt, but she had to come back up and grab a new set of clothes .
