This was wonderful. The sun was shining and the sound of wave crashing at the hull of the ship makes it a brilliant cruise. I never would have expected that I ended up enjoying this vacation. It was so peaceful. Nothing to bother me at all, I love it. Here I am sitting on this lovely chair under the sun's gaze along with a glass of iced orange. Let's not forget that I also bought a sun glass just for this moment. Wearing it on the deck really sets the mood.

The Absolute Cruiser, which is the name of this cruise ship. In all honesty, that's just a name that Sam Maximus unofficially declared to us. Its real name is The Pride. But if that's what Sam wanted to call it then I guess that's what we're going with. The exam was finally over and the following day was the day where we pack up for this vacation. Most of my friends are here. I might probably see them later because right now I'm all alone on the main deck. All alone like this can sometimes be fun. What could possibly go wrong?

"White!!! Recordia screams as she flies to White!"

And just as I was having fun...Recordia arrived with her problems.

"What is it, Recordia? Don't you see I'm enjoying the sea?"

"Recordia was bullied! Recordia was not very happy that they bullied me!"

"Bullied? Who?"

"Everyone! Every time they see me, they will pinch me or something...Recordia was confused."

I laughed and said, "That's not bullying. You're just cute." I patted her tiny little head. "By the way, have you seen Zenith?"

"Recordia tries to remember and says, "Zenith was with the other girls, changing their cloth."

"Changing? Why?"

"Don't be so dumb, White. Of course the girls will change." Shiro appears before me. "It's hot out here and you know what that means?"

"What?"

"Really?" Shiro seemed to be disappointed at me. He then said, "Swimsuits! All of them lovely swimsuits!"

"Ouh...I see what you mean...I just...hadn't thought of that."

"Jeez. You're still a guy right?"

"Yes I am! And now that you mentioned about that I think I'm expecting something interesting too."

"What are you expecting, White? Don't tell me. Is it Blanc?"

"What are you talking about...it's not Blanc."

Just as we were still talking, my fellow roommates had arrived and greeted.

"Hey what's up, White. You're early for the main dish." Said Aspye who fancied himself with a pair of nice short pants and flip flops.

Azreal then asked me, "Have you seen Hemrietta, White?"

"No I have not seen that guy. He's always away from us every single day. It's like we're just nobodies to him."

"We shouldn't really talk behind him badly like that, White." Kallen said as he finally arrived. "Anyway, have any of you seen Ziggs?"

Everyone shakes their head saying no. Ziggs was probably together with Lala. Why? Well, I heard that those two went out together. Isn't that wonderful? I still remember their first encounter and that was when they had that duel. Lovely times.

"What are you boys doing there?" We suddenly heard Blanc's voice from a distant.

The boys begin to anticipate her appearance as they made their way to their position and tried to act cool and not bothered by the girls. This is stupid...Why can't I find a single guy who isn't a land crocodile or something...I bet their jaws will be dropped on the floor once they see the girls in their swimsuits.

If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it.

"So this is where you guys are hanging out?" Blanc was seen wearing her swimsuit.

What? You want me to explain what's she wearing? Fine. It's a red checkered bikini. She didn't tie up her long messy hair and she has a red framed sunglass on her head. As for her footwear...flip flops with a flower design.

"Now that's what I call the perfect size!" whispered Kallen to himself.

I looked at Shiro and saw that he was oozing all over Blanc with that disgusting eyes of his. Seriously?

"Hey, White. What do you think of my bikini?" Blanc asked me.

I gave her a straight answer, "It's lovely. Is it new?"

"Of course it's new, White." She just slapped my shoulder for that. "It's not like I never had one before." Her laughing doesn't sound convincing at all.

Sure, she does look a little bit uncomfortable wearing such a revealing swimsuit but then again she's already used to wearing eye poking outfits. It's just that she never notice how revealing it was. She only thinks how effective it is in combat. She's a fighter through and through.

"Hey, hey, hey. I see Blanc over there!" It was Rose.

...Expecting something? Okay then...fine...Rose is wearing a one piece dress. A very arousing white one-piece dress. It has blue frills and the dress comes with a long skirt that reaches her feet. Her one-piece does not cover the entire part of her body as it only covers her abdomen. But I can still see her bellybutton through that dress. It's the only part that was transparent by the way. She's wearing a pair of sandals that was tied up with a long golden lace up to her ankle. Let's not forget she's also wearing a straw hat with two hibiscuses on it. Oh yeah, her animal ears can also be seen popping out of that hat.

I then whispered to myself, "Hosuke would be pissed if I tell him about this...But just in case..." I paused the time and took a photo of Rose using my smartphone and sent it to Hosuke. "He's either going to lose a lot of blood after seeing that or become jealous of me and block me for a whole day."

"Hey, everyone! What a lovely weather!" Rose was very excited about this vacation.

"Hey, Rose. Have you seen, Zenith?" I asked her.

"I thought she was with me just a few seconds ago. I guess she loses her confidence or something."

"I see..."

"You sound disappointed, White." Blanc was laughing at me.

"No I am not!" I quickly retaliate.

Just as we were bantering, another girl appears.

"Can it be?!" Azreal was preparing himself.

"It is!" Aspye was getting riled up as well.

"The Goddess has arrived!" Kallen joins in as well.

They were definitely talking about Yumiko...Not the most exciting thing for me that is for sure. Especially after seeing her in that cheongsam the other day...But if it's something to say, she's wearing a bikini. A skimpy pink striped bikini. Her bottom part uses a string that needs to be tied while the top part is the same string as well. There's some accessory above her left knee and her right arm. I think it's supposed to be the thing that helps you tie your hair or something. Her flip flop isn't something to be amazed. Coming from me that is...

"What are you staring at, White?" Yumiko approached me.

"What are you talking about? You are the one who comes to me and flaunting your body. Plus..." I saw something different and whispered to her as I tried to hold my laugh, "How many layers of pad is that?"

"Oh jeez, White. You want to die?" She aim her flintlock to my face.

I quickly surrendered knowing what's to come but then Rose quickly went away and pulled in someone.

"Oh come on, Zenith. You look lovely in that. Come on!" Rose was pulling the snow girl out of the door she was hidden behind.

In just a few seconds later, she was pushed out of the door and there she was...

"A robe?" I was surprised.

It was a robe that dark blue robe that covers her entire body. It also comes with a hood. This wasn't what I imagined but it was exactly what I was expecting from a shy girl like her.

"What are you doing, Zenith? Take those off!" Rose quickly pulled her hood and untied the knot on her robe.

Underneath that robe, was a lovely one-piece navy blue swimsuit. It is a one piece that has a super short skirt that covers a little of her bottom part. The skirt has white frills. Her legs were laid bare without her usual knee socks. She only has what seem to be some sort of weird accessory on her left thigh. It wasn't the same as Yumiko's, it was something else. She's also wears a cute sandal that seems to be themed after a deathly flower. Scary, yes. But most importantly, her shining silver hair was tied into a downed twin tail.

She quickly wore back the robe after just a few seconds later. At least she's not wearing the hood this time.

"Zen..." I greeted her in the most casual way possible. Which is a lie.

Zenith looks at me with a bright red shades appearing down her eyes and said, "W...Wh...White...Hey there...W...White."

"You look...uh...cute in that."

Her face turns red as she heard that, "Really? Well..." she then looks someplace else and said, "Thank you..."

"I mean really, it is cute. Of course you would wear that. There's no way you would wear a bikini because of how small you..."

And that was all I was able to say before I was sent flying into a swimming pool that was on the OTHER SIDE of the cruise ship by Zenith. Jeez, that was freaking cold! And I'm not talking about the water. I'm talking about Zenith's snow. It was colder when compared to what I'm used to. It's almost killing me. In any case, I got out of the pool but as I was about to climb the stairs...

"Why hello there, Cyclone White..."

Sam Maximus was right in front of me...
