Hum...
The instant Setsuna agreed to this strange ga rule,
The space of the entire world shifted once more.
Whoosh—
"Hm?"
Every girl suddenly discovered that a stack of tangible objects had condensed into her hands, resembling paper vouchers.
Printed on them were the stakes they had discussed earlier.
For example: "Date with the Commander (5 people)," "Dinner with the Commander (10 people)," "Make a wish to the Commander (1 ti)," and other oddly specific phrases.
"This is...?"
They quickly understood.
Setsuna had used divine power to create a world similar to No Ga No Life. These were the "stakes" they had agreed upon.
Only after being acknowledged by the Chief God could a ga be formally established.
This was the manifestation of the divine power of the Suniaster's master. No matter how absurd the idea, it would be expressed in the form of rules.
"Oh? Interesting."
Setsuna rested his chin in his hand, watching the spectacle unfold. He had not interfered. This was the automatic manifestation of the ga's rules.
"Whoa..."
"Commander usage vouchers?!"
Everyone once again marveled at this rule-level power—absurd, yet strangely reasonable.
With these vouchers, one could literally redeem the listed item from the Commander. For example, "Date with the Commander (5 people)" ant five people dating together.
If soone managed to collect five identical vouchers, they could even combine them into a single solo voucher and monopolize him.
"It really is like a ga world..."
Cecilia counted the vouchers in her hand. There were roughly twenty or thirty, with varying denominations.
Items like "Dinner with the Commander (10 people)" were clearly lower in value. Everyone had plenty of those.
After all, Setsuna often invited everyone to als together. There was nothing rare about that.
anwhile, single-person vouchers such as "Alone Ti with the Commander" were extrely scarce, obviously more precious. Higher-tier rewards like "Two-Person Vacation (Day)" even required multiple vouchers to synthesize.
After all, opportunities to spend extended ti alone with Setsuna were rare. He was quite egalitarian.
Everyone received the sa initial set of vouchers. Under the rules of this world, all were equal.
Whether it was Taihou and Mio, who were always by Setsuna's side, or newcors like Shiro and Jibril who had just arrived in the Starsea Empire, the starting point was identical.
Each day, everyone would also generate a few small-denomination vouchers, symbolizing that everyone had the right to date the Commander.
But if soone wanted to monopolize more ti, they would have to win it from others.
"Oh, so this ga is about winning as many vouchers as possible, and then I can make Big Brother Commander stay with the whole ti?"
Shiro imdiately grasped the rules.
"This is so interesting!!!"
"What happens if soone doesn't follow the rules?"
The ever-troubleso nanomachines boldly raised the question.
"For example, what if I join a date between the Commander and soone else without using a voucher? Or secretly sneak into his bedroom? The Commander wouldn't actually kick out, right? ..."
"..."
"Rules established by a god are absolute. Everyone in this world must obey them."
Holou answered calmly.
"You cannot perform any action that violates the rules. Otherwise, you may be expelled from this world, or forcibly restrained."
"Tch..."
Thinking back to the absolute authority Setsuna's decree had over the world of Disboard not long ago, Grey wisely shut her mouth.
The only ones who might qualify as lawbreakers were Nyarko, Shub, and a few other Cthulhu girls—but their moral standards were unexpectedly high.
If soone truly lost all their vouchers every day, they would probably have no choice but to watch pitifully as the Commander dated others and acted lovey-dovey.
"Only by following the rules does the ga have aning."
Richelieu cleared her throat and looked toward Setsuna.
"Commander, let confirm once more. You acknowledge all these vouchers, correct?"
"Mm."
Setsuna nodded. He found this competitive format rather interesting and was curious who would ultimately win.
As a team-building and entertainnt activity, it was excellent.
"No matter who holds the vouchers, I will honor them."
"Then let's play!"
...
"Oooooohhhh—"
With the Creator God's approval, within this divine power–forged vacation world, everyone erupted with excitent.
It was their first ti truly participating in a world governed by gas.
To win as many vouchers as possible, everyone began carefully planning their next move.
"Chaldea, assemble!!!"
Gudako was the first to gather all the Heroic Spirits together.
"We all ca from Chaldea. Let's not fight among ourselves first. We unite and challenge others, win vouchers from them."
"Any objections?"
"Hm...?"
The Heroic Spirits glanced at one another.
"I support challenging other races first. After that, we can settle things among ourselves."
Even the usually chaotic Jeanne Alter agreed to the proposal.
After all, coming from the sa world gave them a sense of solidarity.
"There are many shipgirls. Perhaps we should consider targeting them first?"
"Who here is good at gas? Chess, card gas, video gas—anything works."
"Those who aren't good at gas can hand their vouchers to the strongest players. After we win, we distribute the gains proportionally."
The Chaldea Heroic Spirits quickly began integrating their "combat power," selecting the most skilled players as representatives to fight on Chaldea's behalf.
"Heroic Spirits with Luck Rank A, step forward!!!"
"Teacher? You're a Lancer, you know that, right? Have so self-awareness. Please don't beco a charity machine, thank you..."
The other races were in similar situations.
"Mm..."
Within the Night Raid squad's base,
Aka, Kuro, and the other ordinary human girls were urgently discussing strategy.
Under normal circumstances, their strength was qualitatively inferior to those transcendent beings.
But in a ga world, victory was determined purely by skill. In a sense, everyone had been pulled onto the sa starting line.
The traditional hierarchy of strength had been overturned. Ordinary humans could now challenge those at higher tiers.
"Let's not fight among ourselves first. We need to win vouchers from others. The shipgirls have the largest population. They're our priority."
"By the way, that little girl nad Shiro seems incredibly skilled at gas. Should we try recruiting her? ..."
After thinking it through, Night Raid, the Demon Slayer Corps, and others realized that they had spent most of their ti training their bodies. Their gaming skills were far inferior.
Coincidentally, Shiro was also an ordinary human. If they could recruit her, they could overturn the heavens and easily counterattack the other races.
"..."
Within the shipgirl base, the flagships of the major fleets gathered together.
"Heh, looks like quite a few people have their eyes on us, huh? ..."
Taihou lazily propped her head up with one hand while idly counting her vouchers with the other.
"Tsk. They didn't even give more? I was clearly the Commander's first..."
"It's only natural that we're being targeted. We have the largest numbers."
Enterprise replied calmly.
The Azure Lane shipgirls, the Arpeggio shipgirls, and the Kancolle shipgirls all gathered together. Their combined numbers were enough to rival several other teams put together.
"What's foreseeable is that we'll face the most challenges. That's both a risk and an opportunity."
"All fleets should unite for now. Once everything settles, we'll decide the outco among ourselves."
"No problem."
The shipgirls quickly reached a consensus.
"If it's board gas, I have so confidence. I can represent the fleet."
Chen Hai spoke unhurriedly.
"In my spare ti, I've played against Artoria, Esdeath, and Tohru. None of them were my match."
"And Nagashima, it's ti for you to repay the fleet!!"
Essex dragged Nagashima forward.
"You squat in the port playing gas all day. You should at least have so skill, right?"
"Eh—"
"Laffey, Ayanami, Z23, and the Four Kongōs do it too!!!—"
Nagashima protested loudly.
"Let them co with . Mm, we're actually pretty good at team-based PvP gas..."
There were plenty of gaming experts in the other factions. Even the most skilled little shipgirls couldn't guarantee victory in every match.
"Mm..."
Nagato and Musashi exchanged glances, then looked toward the Yamato from Arpeggio and the Yamato from Kancolle.
The few of them imdiately understood one another.
"In the end, gas are decided by luck and skill. If soone's luck reaches a certain level, they'll be unstoppable, right?"
"Coincidentally, we have the perfect candidates."
No sooner had the words fallen than—
"Yukikaze-sama—nanoda!!!"
A white-haired beast-eared little shipgirl in a sailor uniform jumped out.
Beside her stood two other destroyer shipgirls. Judging from their hull numbers, they were essentially the sa ship.
Azure Yukikaze, Arpeggio Yukikaze, and Kancolle Yukikaze.
"It's just playing gas, right? Leave it to Lady Yukikaze!!"
"Ohhh—"
Under normal circumstances, the re sight of three Yukikazes moving together would make the other shipgirls' legs go weak.
That incomprehensible level of good fortune was perfectly suited to a world where victory was decided by gas.
"We promise not to deploy Yukikaze first... but given the circumstances, for the sake of the Commander's usage rights, we can't hold back."
"Go! The honor of the port is in your hands!!"
"Whether the Commander lives in the port for the rest of the year depends on you!!"
