Tsukune’s jaw dropped slightly, but after a quick squeeze from Moka, he managed to close his hanging mouth.

The girl in tropical attire gave Tsukune a bright smile. Contrary to his expectations, she never once looked at Moka, only at him.

"I'm the swimming club captain, Ichinose Tamao. Why don’t we swim together?"

Striking a pose that accentuated her well-developed body, Tamao quickly gathered the attention of everyone around her.

While not as beautiful nor divine as Moka, Tamao’s revealing body was an instant attention grabber. Not only was Tamao’s body naturally sexy, but behind her was a small group of other well-endowed and attractive women, all wearing swimsuits. This caused the surrounding male students to shout and scream.

"It's the swimming club!"

"Those swimsuits are hot!"

“The girls are sexy!”

While the other members of the swimming club started attracting other freshmen, Tamao approached Tsukune and boldly grabbed his shoulders. With a seductive and soft voice, she invited Tsukune.

“You know, Tsukune… the swimming club right now is full of girls.”

She then leaned forward and whispered directly into Tsukune’s ear.

"We'll pay a lot of special attention to the boys who join our club."

There was something supernatural in Tamao’s face and voice. For a moment, Tsukune was reminded of Kurumu. But before he could try to discern what was different, he was distracted by the explosive voices of the agitated male crowd.

“Me me!”

“I’ll join!”

“Please, let me join!”

“I love swimming!”

Hearing the crowd’s chants, Tsukune lost his train of thought. It was quickly replaced by his appreciation.

Thank goodness… the swimming club seems normal…

Turning to Tamao who’s waiting for his confirmation, Tsukune swallows the lump in his throat.

Just a bit more revealing than I thought…

Seeing Tsukune heaving a sigh of relief, Moka couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

Tsukune, you’re staring at them for too long!

Unfortunately, Tsukune was oblivious to Moka’s feelings.

“Moka! Let’s check out the swimming club!”

Before Moka could reply, Tamao quickly took the initiative.

“Everyone! Let’s go check out the open pool area!”

The crowd roars in agreement and Tsukune is quickly swept away. But before he could be separated from Moka, he grabbed her hand.

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

“Got you.”

Moka couldn’t help but smile as the two of them were semi-dragged toward the pool building.

Yeah, you do.

Unfortunately, Moka’s pleasant thoughts were quickly overshadowed as they reached the pool building. Dozens of eager male students had already gathered, drawn in by the allure of the swimming club. The club members were so keen to welcome them that they provided all the men with swim trunks, ensuring they could join in the fun.

As most of the male students changed into their swimwear, the female club members revealed their own enticing bikinis and swimwear. With a practiced grace, the girls dispersed to their designated spots around the pool. Some took to the water to engage with the newcomers, while others, more voluptuous, remained poolside to further entice the crowd. There was even a refreshment area stocked with drinks and extra swimwear.

It wasn’t long before the pool area was abuzz with activity, as male students and female club members swam and played together.

The sight of the beautiful swimmers and the lively atmosphere left an unmistakable impression on every male student.

The swimming club rocks!!

Tsukune initially hesitated to change his clothes, opting to stay outside the pool and observe the club. After three encounters with different monsters, his caution was justified. However, seeing the cheerful environment provided by the club, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of happiness.

"Moka, look! It's a little different, but we're free to do whatever we want!"

Moka silently observed the club with a worried expression.

Unfortunately, Tsukune was so caught up in his excitement that he didn’t notice Moka’s worried expression.

I can get closer to Moka here!

For a moment, Tsukune imagined him and Moka swimming together, enjoying each other’s company and appreciating each other’s presence.

I’m so glad I started working out!

As they approached the pool, Moka’s apprehension grew. She finally summoned the courage to speak up, unwittingly shattering Tsukune’s fantasies at their height.

“Uh… Umm… Tsukune, I don't really like swimming!"

And just like writing in the sand, Tsukune’s dreams and fantasies were washed away by Moka’s words. Trying to keep a calm face, he nodded at Moka.

“I understand…”

Since Tsukune and Moka hadn’t changed into swimwear, they took a seat at one of the umbrella-covered tables.

Moka looked away, fidgeting in her seat and feeling awkward. Tsukune, on the other hand, was disheartened.

I-I guess… Moka didn’t understand my intention. My dreams of seeing Moka in a swimsuit… gone…

Moka pursed her lips, feeling a mix of annoyance and guilt. She wanted to alleviate some of Tsukune’s grievances.

“Tsukune… I—”

But before she could finish her thought, a familiar voice, along with a few others, called out to Tsukune.

"Oh, what are you doing here?"

Tsukune tried to turn toward the voices, but a pair of beautiful white arms pulled him into a hug.

“Hurry up and come swim with us!”

“Ah! Captain?” Tsukune’s surprise was well deserved. Despite his surprised reaction, Tamao barely reacted.

She’s strong!

But his cautious thoughts were immediately quashed when he felt Tamao’s ample breasts press against his back. He then heard a sultry whisper in his ear.

“Come on, Tsukune. Don’t you want to swim with me?”

Once again, Tsukune was reminded of Kurumu.

There’s that feeling again.

But once more, he was distracted by Tamao’s next actions.

“Girls, this one’s not in a swimming suit!”

It was like a pack of rabid, hungry dogs suddenly thrown a thick piece of meat. Tsukune was abruptly pulled to the ground by four club members, landing painfully but controlling his reaction. After spending time at the academy, he knew that all monsters, even those in human disguises, were very tough. If he acted like he was hurt, it might raise suspicion. He didn’t want to be eaten or killed.

Unfortunately for Tsukune, the girls had more devious plans. Without his approval, they quickly stripped him of his uniform, undershirt, and pants.

"Ohhh! This one is cute!"

“Take it off! Take it off!”

“Look at his body! He works out!”

“That’s rare!”

“G-Girls! Wait!”

Moka couldn’t help but cover her eyes, calling out to Tsukune.

“Tsukune!”

Tamao, on the other hand, was pleased as she watched Tsukune get stripped.

While Tsukune was being relieved of his clothing, Tamao turned to Moka.

“So, you're the rumored Moka."

Tamao finally gave Moka a look up and down, nodding in approval.

“Rumors say that you're a vampire, like Tsukune here." Tamao gave the silver cross on Moka's neck a cursory glance. "I wonder if it's true."

For a moment, Tamao and Moka stared at each other, sizing each other up.

It was Tamao who first broke the silence.

"Well... anyway, this is a swimming club. Seeing that you have no intention of swimming, why don't you just leave?"

There was an edge in Tamao’s question, clearly telling Moka she should scram or else.

Moka pursed her lips while holding back a frown.

Eventually, Tsukune’s uniform was replaced with swimming wear, leaving his chest bare for the club members to admire. Fortunately for Tsukune, only his dignity was taken and his underwear was left with him.

Once he was changed, Tamao almost immediately grabbed onto him.

“Tsukune, let’s go swim!”

Seeing Tamao immediately monopolize Tsukune, the other club members had a few complaints.

“Awww, I wanted to see what he had.”

“Tamao told us not to do that.”

“Yeah but imagine what someone cute like that is packing…”

Tsukune tried to turn to Moka but Tamao was way more forceful than expected.

It wasn’t long before the two of them were in the pool.
