Chapter 1667 – Memories on the Beach ①

<Author’s Notes>

I was planning to bring about the closure with one more chapter, but I didn’t have much time today, so it would end up being about 2 chapters.

It would be a shame not to take advantage of the time that we’ve finally gone to a private beach, so Alice and I decided to take a quick swim together.

Fortunately, our magic boxes contained the swimsuits we had purchased for when we played on the beach before. It really is quite convenient to have various leisure goods in the magic box to cope with various situations.

[……It kinda feels strange being all alone on the beach.]

Since Alice would be changing into her swimsuit for the time being, I changed first and waited for Alice while setting up our parasol and other beach essentials.

Well, we aren’t really going all out playing here, just playing moderately, so I think a parasol and a leisure sheet should suffice.

[……T- Thank you for waiting. The Transcendental Beauty makes her entrance.]

[Unnn? Ahh, you’re here……………………]

I turned around at the sound of Alice’s voice and was rendered speechless. Alice hadn’t really changed her hairdo, but she had taken off her mask and was wearing a simple black bikini-type swimsuit. She was so pretty that I was mildly shocked.

In the first place, Alice doesn’t typically dress in a way that exposes much skin, so seeing her like this is refreshing, but simply put, as a blonde, blue-eyed beauty, Alice’s current get-up suits her incredibly well.

[Ph? What’s the matter, Kaito-san? Were you charmed upon seeing your cute girlfriend in her swimsuit?]

[Yeah, it honestly exceeds what I had imagined. No, especially when you remain silent, Alice really is like a beauty on a perfect level…… Your swimsuit really suits you, and you look really cute.]

[Well~~ If you compliment me that much, I will get emb…… Unnn? That’s strange. I kinda feel like I just heard you saying it’s different when I’m talking though?]

[……Well, when you start speaking, I feel more like you’re “someone disappointing”.]

[Who the heck is a Disappointing Transcendental Beauty!?]

No, when she actually shuts up, she really is a beauty that I can’t complain about, but when she speaks, that beauty skips out of my mind and instead becomes replaced by “Alice”.

[No, it’s more like you talking really feels Alice-like. Like, your character really shows when you speak……]

[You’re being really harsh for a while now…… Hah!? Oh my, Kaito-san, I can see you hiding your embarrassment! You’re just overflowing with love with the cute Alice-chan, but you’re so embarrassed that you opt to insulting, right? No, no, I get ya. It’s that male instinct for guys to not be straightforward, yes? Good grief, even though Alice-chan could have fully received it if you could just be honest…… Well, I suppose Alice-chan is just that captivating that one just can’t be straightforward……]

[Hou, if you’re gonna say that much, then sure, I’ll shower you with my love as much as you want……]

[Whoa there, Kaito-san, please wait. Let’s calm down now…… Let’s calm down and talk things out. I do feel like I got a little carried away and got dragged along the flow…… If things head in that direction, my chances of winning is…… so, let’s calm down for the moment……]

Rather than me, it’s probably Alice who’s 100% trying to hide her embarrassment. Still, since she went and said such things, let’s ride along with her words and shower Alice with my love.

I mean, those words she said just now, couldn’t I take it as some sort of invitation? Well, whatever……

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……They’re making out again…… They’re freaking making out again……]
