Chapter 35: The Beach
Ritsuka was now preparing all of her paraphernalias for their beach. Of course, due to having knowledge beforehand about the surprise tour so she has readily bought all of the supplies 4 days earlier. She really loved the beach as this remind of her the time she was trapped on an island within a singularity together with some of her Servants. It's too bad that one of her original rosters, namely Scathach, wasn't here to show of her swimsuit once more.
Not that she complained to the current Servant's swimsuit here.
Ritsuka shifted her sight to her Servants, who are now in their swimsuit.
First stop, Mashu, her precious eggplant. She was wearing her white one-piece and a cute ribbon on her chest, which further emphasized her modest chest. That's right, it's the same swimdress she used back on the beach singularity. Added by her glasses, she's a straight up megane beauty! No one can top up her innocence and fragility, which will fool many others! Mashu felt her Senpai's gaze drilling on her body for some reason and she blushed from it.
"S-Senpai?!" and felt covering her body with her arms. Ah, the cute eggplant
Second Stop, Ereshkigal and Ishtar. Ritsuka somehow associated them with colors: for Lancer, it would be dark maroon while for the Archer, it would be gold and guess what it looked great on them with their bikini swimsuits. What makes this beautiful is their contrast of their hair color; The Goddess of the Underworld with her blonde fitting with her dark maroon swimsuit while the Red Devil of Venus with her shiny brunette hair and her gold-and-white themed bikini (…and Ritsuka has this suspicion that she just recycled her scantily clad battle suit.). When Ritsuka placed her sight on them, Ishtar and Ereshkigal readily accept her greedy sight.
"Don't you love it, Master?" Ishtar, always the bold one out of her sisters, stretched her body and further emphasizing her curves. Ishtar even has the guts to pose in front of Ritsuka for sexy points and Ritsuka shamelessly enjoyed it. Ereshkigal, although a little timid, was given a boost in confidence by Ritsuka.
"D-do you like my swimsuit too, Master?"
"Like? I love both of you in your swimsuits and that includes you, Ereshkigal!" Ritsuka boldly added. As a result, Ereshkigal was suffering from hot flushes on her face as she felt her heart beating rapidly from this insane feeling. One point for Ritsuka!
Third Stop, Circe. Ohoh? Circe was becoming bolder with her monokini with added rings as an aesthetic. With her pale physique, the color nude was a fitting for her. Circe might have been acting mature but that doesn't dissuade Ritsuka from thinking her body was just underdeveloped, especially in her chest areas. Of course, this is a standard beauty for the Greeks, Ritsuka wasn't a Greek though.
"Hey! You want to turn into pigs that bad?!" Circe berated her Master that badly as she somehow was offended as she could tell Ritsuka's pervertous stare at her body. She can even spell it out for her and it goes like F-L-A-…
"…You know what. I'll turn you into pig now." Circe was becoming decisive.
"Eh? I didn't even say anything!"
"It's a fitting punishment for you! Honest" Circe gave her a shuddering smile as magic circles begun appearing around her, pointing at the Master of Chaldea.
"Waah!!!" Ritsuka immediately trusted her instincts and went on a run from the Witch.
Shidou was now already healed. No matter how he was beaten, he was sure to rebound back. It was just that he didn't know what hit him. It is as if he has a renewed vitality. All in all, it seemed that he was ready to go the beach. Reine already green lit him on the whim. It seemed his innate ability to heal was working as usual.
Also, Tohka was waiting for him outside of the infirmary. It seemed she was waiting for him eagerly.
"Shidou? Are you alright now?" Tohka asked him regarding his current condition. What happened last night seemed to have taken a toll on her, even for a little bit.
"I am now ok, Tohka." Shidou assured her.
"Really?" Tohka's face beamed with happiness. "Yatta! Let's go to the beach then." She decided as she pump her fist up as fast as possible.
"Beach? Ah, of course, why not?" He said as he scratched the back of his head in confusion. When he glanced toward Reine, who subtly nodded to him, he immediately got the message.
Tohka proceeded to dragged him out from his safe place, err, the infirmary. Shidou has no other choice but first he must get dressed in a proper swimsuit.
The weather is perfect for beach time. The heat was not so unbearable as it was the last day and the water were in a perfect cold temperature. Most of Shidou's class were now on the beach enjoying the atmosphere, splashing and playing with each other, only that they were from the far side of the island.
Shidou was there, observing everything within her sight. He was now in his swimming shorts and the cold wind of north cooled his skin. He spied Tohka in her dark violet bikini, fitting with her purple eyes and shining, purple hair while floating with inflatable ducky. When Tohka saw him, she just waved her arms at her. Also, the girl Trio was with her, entertaining each other together.
Nevertheless, Shidou was still in a dilemma regarding the Twins. Their aims and motivation were a bit too much. Both Yuzuru and Kaguya were fighting each other because they must decide who will be the major personality. Even if the appearance is still the same, Shidou couldn't decide either. He could feel each of them has a unique charm to each other and he wasn't talking to their personality alone; he was taking to their entirety. They deserve not to be abolished.
He knew there will be a solution somewhere. Then he returned to the place Reine reffered to. It was empty unlike from the other side but Reine assured him that no one can enter that part of the island.
"Oi, you can't just stand there looking dumb somewhere." Shidou turned around and saw the Twins themselves in their respective bikini swimsuit. It was composed of black and white with frilly patterns and polka dots design, although their difference is that they are exactly opposite to each other. To Yuzuru, the major color was white while for Kaguya was black.
Shidou just swallowed his saliva from witnessing their beauty and he got to admit they were equally majestic. It seemed that Reine did her work well.
Based on the way they crossed they arms under their chest, it seemed that they are in need of something.
"Oh, you two both looked pretty." Shidou said genuinely before giving them a thumbs up. Kaguya was at loss but Yuzuru seemed to be nonchalant.
They managed to fix themselves before they could talk straightly.
"Ms. Reine said we can't snuggle you that easily that night."
"Explanation. In order for this battle to continue you must do something to compensate."
"O-ok then what is it?"
Yuzuru and Kaguya then showed him a sunscreen lotion with a smirk. Little did they know is that Reine has gave him brief rundown on what will happen today.
Reine has given the twins intercom to interact with them to the extent she'll have some partial control on them. Shidou will have to do his part in falling in both of them, not just one of them. That's the important thing Shidou must remember. If all goes right, then there is a high chance he can seal both of their powers for good.
Shidou is insistent that whatever he do is for the good will of the Yamai Twins. They wanted one of them to be alive but for Shidou he wanted them both to exist. He admitted that he might sounded selfish there but at least he has good intentions.
Other than the obvious aims for him, he couldn't help but worry of the risk involved. They do not know if he can manage to make them kiss him at the same time and do not know what will happen next. They are wading in a dangerous water.
Reine explained that they are currently in a private beach so Shidou can do everything he can do without ever embarrassing himself.
"I demand that you apply divine protection on our body!"
"Insistence. Please apply sunblock on our skin."
Both of them show off their own sunblock lotion to Shidou. He could dread something will happen to this. As if he couldn't escape from this twisted reality, The Twins already undid their tops and laid themselves flat on blanket, waiting for their back to be applied with lotion.
Such is the fate of Shidou.
