Chapter 472: Yurine Feels Full of Things to Roast!
"Crash, crash—!"
The tide rose and fell, the waves beating against the sandy beach time and again, shattering into patches of crystalline, silver-white foam. The sea breeze, carrying the salty and damp moisture, blew gently against their faces.
In the distance, the blue sky and the jade sea merged into a single line. White clouds floated leisurely, and everything appeared so beautiful.
"Yoshi—!"
Jashin-chan stretched her body, put one hand on her hip, pointed spiritedly towards the sea, and announced loudly:
"I'm going to swim to the other side of the sea!"
"There might be sharks in the sea, you know," Yurine looked at her and joked.
"How could there be sharks!"
Jashin-chan didn't believe it and didn't take it seriously. She turned her head, waved her hand, and said full of confidence: "Even if there are sharks, I can easily finish them off! Who do you think I am?"
"So amazing!"
Ryohei exaggeratedly clapped his hands and casually said: "Remember to bring back the dorsal fin, tail fin, and the like. I'll make shark fin soup for you to drink."
"Okay, if I run into any."
Jashin-chan made an 'OK' hand gesture, turned around, and ran excitedly towards the sea. With a splash, she leaped into the sea, transforming into a "sea snake."
The others also rushed towards the sea one after another.
"..."
"Right, just like that. Binchou-tan, you're doing very well."
Pekola held little Binchou-tan's hands, patiently teaching her how to swim.
Poporon was teasing a kid on the side—
"This Princess doesn't know how to swim, you absolutely must not let go!"
Ecute lay on her stomach on a swimming ring printed with a bat pattern. Her heart pounding, she looked at Poporon, her face written full of nervousness.
"Should I let go~."
Poporon held the safety rope on the swimming ring, the corners of her lips curling up slightly.
"Second, hurry and say something!"
Ecute hurriedly sought help from her best friend.
"Mn? To let go or not to let go?"
Second folded one arm across her chest and lightly tapped her cheek with her fingertip, wearing a playful expression.
"Hey—!"
"..."
"Then we're setting off, we'll bring back 'spoils of war'!"
Kobayashi called out a greeting. Carrying a fishing rod and a bucket, she rode Tohru to go fishing somewhere farther away.
Kanna, Ilulu, and Minos started playing volleyball in the sea.
Elma reverted to her true form after a long time and dove headfirst into the sea of the "different world."
"Ara—! Lierre, do you want to ride that dolphin?"
Persephone noticed Lierre's gaze drifting from time to time towards the dolphin-shaped swimming ring on the beach, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously curled into an arc.
"W-What nonsense are you talking about! I have no interest in that kind of thing!" As if her thoughts were pierced through, Lierre's small face turned red. She crossed her arms and spoke stubbornly.
—Her whole body was soft, only her mouth was hard!
"Is that so? Did I misunderstand?" Persephone tilted her head, feigning surprise.
"Mn, that's right! You misunderstood!"
Lierre nodded vigorously, trying hard to maintain her dignity.
"Alright." Persephone seemed to accept this explanation and shrugged lightly.
She strode her snow-white, plump long legs, walked in front of the dolphin-shaped swimming ring, bent her soft waist to pick it up, turned her head, and flashed a brilliant smile at Lierre:
"I suddenly want to ride this, it looks very fun... come watch me ride it."
"Eh..."
Lierre froze on the spot.
She looked at Persephone, opened her mouth, and finally squeezed out a sentence: "You're so childish!"
"What! What I have is called maintaining an innocent and romantic heart!"
Persephone carried the dolphin-shaped swimming ring and walked towards the sea: "As long as your mindset is young enough, then no matter how old you are, you are very young!"
"Tch—!"
Lierre turned her face away and clicked her tongue lightly, but her body naturally followed.
She planned to tell Persephone to get off later so she could ride it herself. In her words—that would be maintaining an innocent and romantic heart!
"..."
"One is two-faced and the other is a tsundere, truly entertaining."
Ryohei looked at the retreating figures of Persephone and Lierre, one large and one small, walking towards the sea, his face full of joy.
"Mn, aren't you going to play?"
Holding a slice of watermelon in her hand, Yurine took a bite, turned her face sideways, and asked.
"I wanted to go into the sea with you," Ryohei looked at her.
"You go play first."
A bright smile appeared on Yurine's face. She waved her hand and said: "I'll wait until the temperature rises a bit more before going into the water to play."
"Oh, okay."
Ryohei nodded, responded, and lifted his feet to go.
"..."
It was currently past eight o'clock, not yet nine, so the seawater carried a slight chill.
Ryohei splashed around in the sea a couple of times before Lucoa came over. With her hands shaped like claws and a fox-like sly smile on her face, she asked: "Ryohei-kun, can I attack you?"
"If you ask, no."
"Then if I don't ask, I can?" Lucoa wore a smile on her lips.
"Sneak attack!"
Pekola suddenly interjected from the side. After speaking, she dove into the sea and reached out to grab Ryohei's swimming trunks.
"Holy shit! Don't mess around like this!"
Ryohei was shocked and reflexively grabbed her hand.
But from the moment he grabbed Pekola's hand, he knew she was joking.
"I'm coming too!"
Lucoa's sweet and seductive voice came over.
"Like hell you are!"
Ryohei turned his head to look at her and roasted.
Good heavens!
Do you dare to do this in private?
The current occasion really affected his performance!
"..."
On the beach—
"I'm back."
Having changed into a set of sexy floral bikinis, Atre returned to the shore. Seeing Yurine looking over, her cheeks flushed as she said: "I'm sorry, I came wearing an ugly swimsuit earlier."
Yurine froze for a moment, then chuckled lightly: "Not at all, I think you look much better wearing this one."
"Really?"
Atre pressed her hand against her full chest, seemingly breathing a sigh of relief. Then she started worrying again: "If an enemy organization comes to pick a fight right now, I won't be able to defeat them wearing this swimsuit."
"Uh... don't worry! There won't be any enemy organizations."
(￣ ￣|| )
Yurine was speechless for a moment. How could there possibly be your enemy organizations here!
Also, could you defeat them if you wore that prisoner-like swimsuit? What? Does that swimsuit add to your combat power?
—She felt full of things to roast!
