“Inefficient?! What’s that suppose to mean?!”

“It’s inefficient! You and your damn magic! It’s nothing but firepower! It’s flashy and strong but if it misfires in the wrong direction, it may cause a friendly fire! You got me!?” “What?! No one got hurt you know?!”

“What the hell do you call this huge burn mark in my butt?!”

“You’re just a stupid nerd!”

“Damn you and your useless meat!”

Ahahahaha…

We are currently in the conference room. They are talking about another failure of defeating Fonfon. That’s right. They had a battle again and lost magnificently…

I am not allowed to participate again. Apparently, they said I’m a bug in the system.

The listless and the maid… I should have known better. This time and the last match, they just pretended to be unconscious to avoid battling. That’s what Violetta said and she is really angry about it.

It’s like a repeat of last time…but worse…

Shun tried to pair up Koutaro and Bacarra in hopes that this time, Bacarra will siege attacks while Koutaro defends her from any attack.

The outcome, Koutaro gets in the way of Bacarra and Bacarra will misfire magic and Koutaro is the sole victim.

And that’s how they started this quarrel.

“Your mind is full perverted things while in battle so you can’t concentrate!"

“Hah? Do you have any proof?!”

“You! You kept glancing at my breasts! Not only mine but to every girl in there earlier! Scum!”

“W-what the hell are you saying?! I can stare and gaze at anyone’s breasts as much as like but not to someone like a bitch like you!”

“T-that’s! You!”

“Ah…I mean…”

“I don’t care anymore…”

That’s really mean thing to say even though you didn’t mean it…

These two… whenever they see each other eye to eye, a quarrel will always break out. But this time, it is far worse than the previous fights they have because… someone walks out.

Kouta stays quiet while everyone is looking at him. Our stares say “Go after her” but his face says “I’m not at fault.”

Shun then speaks to wrap everything up since continuing the meeting would just feel awkward and really sour.

“Since continuing this meeting is impossible because someone walks out, I declared that this meeting is adjourned. Everyone, thanks for participating in the match again and diligently attends this meeting.”

After that announcement, everyone leaves the room. I was going to leave too when suddenly…

“Kouta, please stay behind here…”

“Shun? What seems to be the problem?”

Everyone heard what Shun said but ignores it. But for me…well, my curiosity got pique so I peek at the door and listen to what will happen.

“Kouta, do you mind if we have sparring right now in the field?”

“What’s gotten into you?”

“Answer it.”

“It’s fine though.”

Waaah! They are coming here!

I hid behind the ornaments that are standing in the hallway. I tail them until they get in the field. Shun and Kouta wordlessly ready each other.

“Asagao, you want to be a witness in this battle?”

“Eh? I got found out…”

“Right from the start.”

“Shun…that’s…”

“It’s okay… watch us.”

“…”

I don’t underestimate Shun’s magical ability, but I really never saw him fight in this kind of battle. I don’t think he can win against Kouta.

“Okay! Shun! Get ready! Here I come!”

“Haaa… You really should that brain of yours in everything you do.”

“Ha?!”

[Quicksand.]

“GAH!”

“See? Well, Bacarra would never use something like this since it is not her style.”

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

“This… this is so cool!”

“This guy…”

What Shun cast is a quicksand that appears before Kouta can reach him, and because of the built up momentum of Kouta’s charge, he fell instantly in the trap laid out for him.

Kouta sinks deeper as he laughs at his predicament making Shun more irritated. He stops sinking when it reaches his waist.

“Umm… Mister Shun~ I think you have proven your point now as someone strong~ Can you get me out of this now?”

“Not yet, you dense motherfucker.”

“WHY?!”

Kouta squirms in the sand as he pleads Shun to get him out. Shun just made a displeased face as he watches Kouta’s antics.

“Kouta, I have been with Bacarra more than anyone else in the group. I have seen her struggles for new magic. Although she solely focuses on offensive magic, she is always motivated whenever some of those magic fail.”

“Heeee~ She is so diligent.”

“She would never use magic that I compound such as this magic that I used to you. All she wants are magic built with pure power because a certain someone competes with her in terms of offensiveness.”

“Oh! I guess me and that guy could get along well!”

“…Bacarra rarely smiles too. She always put up an air of seriousness. But as you are mention in our talks, she gets hyped up.”

“Hmm… I wonder… Does she really hate my guts?!”

“…”

[Thunder!]

“Gah!”

“Why!”

[Fireball!]

“Uoh!”

“What did she sees on you?!”

[Icicle!]

“GAH!”

“What do you have that I don’t?!”

[Gush!]

“BLURGHLBLURGH!”

“Why an idiot like you?! Why does she not see me?!”

[Tornado!]

“WAAAAH!”

After casting multiple spells toward Kouta who is stuck at the quicksand, Shun walks away in a hurry while fuming. With his last attack, Kouta was blown away and was able to get out of the quicksand. Although he looks like he got fried so hard.

“Geez! What was that all about?! I don’t understand him! That’s basically physical abuse resulting in homicide! I’m going to sue him! Right, Lil Asagao?”

“Hmmm… I think what Shun-nii did is wrong, but my evaluation of Kouta-nii is so low that his reasons are justified."

“Eh?! What reason?! Wait! How did I get a low evaluation?!”

“It’s dinner time. Please fix up here.”

I hurriedly left the scene. His actions make me cringe. There’s a limit of how dense you should be. Even Shun is infuriated at you for that.

Kouta will be hated if he doesn’t do anything about what he did earlier. He did say too much after all. At least he should try to reconcile with Bacarra.

Well…

I really don’t have a say in this mess.

.

.

Ok!

We ate dinner! Wrap things up! Milin is ban from approaching me! The whole castle is now quiet because it’s sleeping time!

I am going to do another covert operation!

Yes!

Another night bath since the custom of this place is so different that they do not have night baths! Carrying my change of clothes, I sneak out of my room.

Left side, clear.

Right side, clear.

Proceed!

I stride down the hallway with the utmost care. I am a ninja tonight! I hide under the covers of the shadow! My presence vanishes without a trace!

A wild guard appears!

Activate hiding!

I crouch down behind a big plant!

…

He didn’t see me!

Hahaha! Proceeding!

The lonely stairs spotted! Detecting hostiles in the vicinity!

None!

DUN DUN DUN DUN!~

Another turn!

I peek at the hallway. Hostiles detected! Two of the guards! Need to find cover!

…

As I turn around, I bump lightly onto someone. It was Violetta.

“Eh…ahaha… Violetta… good evening.”

“Fufufu. Good evening to you too, Miss Asagao.”

“Um…I am… eh… you know…”

“Fufufu. Taking another night bath, I see. Please enjoy yourself!”

“Eh? Wait! How--!”

“How you say…”

As I am confronted by Violetta, the two guards that are coming this way saw us and give their salutations and greetings.

“”Lady Violetta, Miss Asagao! Good evening!””

“Un. Good work you two.”

“”Thank you!””

“By the way, Lady Violetta, is Miss Asagao playing the spy again.”

“Yes!~ It’s just a bummer that she bumps to me.”

Eh?

“Wai—you…guys know?!”

“I’m sorry, yes we do.”

“S-since… when?!”

“The first time you did it Miss Asagao. It was quite a talk among us guards. We really don’t want to disturb your game so we pretended that we don’t know.”

“Yes. And there are talks that whoever encounters Miss Asagao in the hallway during your spy game, we will receive good luck!”

“Ah…”

“It’s really cute though, you were making these adorable sounds.”

AAHHH!

Because I was so embarrassed, I run away from that place!

From a distant, I can hear yelling “take care” at me!

They never said anything!!!

That was beyond bullying!!!

.

.

.

Haa…

I need to relax…

Right now, I am at the large bath. It is bliss to see no one is here. I have the place all for myself!

I do still remember that one incident, but I made sure that it won’t happen again!

I hurriedly wash myself and dove right into the huge pool of hot water.

As I sink down, I can feel my whole body revitalizes. My body and face slacken. The hot water that seeps through my skin feels so good. I feel like… taking… a… nap…

…

BLRUGUBLGGHUUHHH!

“AHH!”

Haa… haa…

I almost drowned! I should not sleep in this kind of place! How can I even make a mistake like that! It’s very idiotic! It would be the greatest joke to tell the world!

Maybe I should wrap it up now. I do relaxed enough. I better sleep at my own bed.

I get up from the pool and heads to the changing room when suddenly…

“MEN’S NIGHT OUT!”

“Kouta, please don’t run! Please don’t shout too!”

“What the hell Ichirou. We are going into a relaxation spree and bonding!”

“Pipe down you two.”

“Yeah. Tell them Shun.”

“Shouta! It’s good that you are hanging out with us.”

“Shouko is very strict after all.”

AHHHHH?!

Not one, but every one of them! No…that guy is not here.

Because I panic, I immediately hid behind the big pillar at the farthest corner of the bath. Further away from the exit. How did I even get here?!

The ones in the bath are Ichirou, Kouta, Dreg, Shun, Mito, and Shouta.

W-what should I do?!

They start undressing. Kouta is already washing up his body. That’s… a pretty well-built body… no less from a soldier… It has no wasted fat. All of it is compact and slim muscles that are decorated with scars.

…

Ichirou’s body is slimmer but also toned. Since he is taller than Kouta, he has finely shaped leg with good and well-formed glutes…

…

Dreg’s body is robust and thick as a log. It is complemented by his height. No one will know that under his clothes are bulky muscles hiding in it.

…

Mito’s body is slim like Ichirou. I can see his dragon wings and tail moving. But unlike the rest of them, there are tattoos on his back. It’s a cool crest with things here and there. I don’t know how to describe it…

…

Shun is just average and his complexion is so pale. He untied his long hair and his stubble is sticking out from his chin. Well… there’s nothing more…

…

Shouta’s body is… I… say it is so… androgynous. Such slender nape and body complimented by his fit arms and legs. His back arches like a girl will. His whole body is spotless and free from manly hairs.

Why am I even peeking at them?

Well. I really can’t do anything in this situation. I might as well listen to what are they are going to talk about.

One by one, each of them soaks at the hot water to relax.

Kouta made the noise.

“Where’s Susanoo?”

“He said he will come.”

“Well, not that we needed him here. Anyway, Shouta! That’s a really nice body.”

“Hm? Well, no… unlike you guys, mine stays like this. Even after all the training, I had undergone.”

“No, no, no. That wasn’t sarcasm! I mean your body looks so girlish! I bet I can use that as a night fantasy!”

“…you know… Shouko and I are Identical Twins. In face and features, we do not have any much difference. In terms of the body, well… you could say that there’s a fine line between us. But I will appreciate if you do not do that Kouta. As I told you earlier, we are identical so you are pretty much going to use her too in your fantasy.”

“Eh…”

“How desperate.”

“S-shut up Mito! H-how do you even suppose to know Shouko’s b-b-b-body, Shouta?!”

“Oh? I know it. I know it very well. Every nook and cranny of her body, I memorized it already.”

“EH?!”

“It’s understandable by now. Even everyone here knows that we are in an incestuous relationship. And… um… we did it many times you know…”

“GAH!!! You’re just a trap character! How could you even enjoy nightlife like that?!”

“Hmph. Guess what, I’m not talking to you anymore.”

“Beat it Kouta, why are you so hung up on that anyway? Do you swing that way?”

“I don’t! I-i-I’m just joking about using him as a night fantasy you know! And don’t call me desperate, Mito!”

“Aren’t you?”

“I am not! Change topic! Change topic!”

“So noisy… Dreg and I here is trying to relax.”

“Come on Shun! Let’s try to get along! Anyway, I’m going to ask you first! Do you have any experience with sex?!”

“…are you really doing this annoying shit?”

“Eh… is that…a no?”

“Hmm. If you really insist, yes I have. Although… I got NTR’d… eight times… you know… NTR’d!”

“Ah… sorry…”

“Are you really sorry about it? Do you know the pain of not having someone you like for yourself? Do you also know the feeling of the people you like is in love with other people?”

“Oookayyy…. You are being really emotional…”

“Hmph.”

“That…. Was really sour… eh… How about you Mito?!”

“You’re passing it to me now. Hmm… I have experienced it with an upperclassman who is three years above me when I was in first-year high school. We did a few wild things. Well, that woman that I dated is in the top of the whole school and a role model.”

“OHH… You really are into older women.”

“What the hell do you mean by that?!”

“I meant what I meant.”

“Prepare your ass tomorrow for a beating.”

“Pfft! You’re just going to fall to my juke strategy again!”

“Ah! Bastard! You want to do it now?!”

…

What a wild bunch…

I wonder how long they plan to do this!?
