Chapter 9


"Ah Master! Watch ouuuuuuut!" yelled an Okita Souji that was falling from the sky.

"Senpai! Take cover behind me!" then spoke Mash, and Ritsuka merely nodded. He jumped behind his kouhai, who was wearing her beautiful swimsuit as she took out her shield.

"Brace for impact!" spoke Mash, and Ritsuka used a Command Seal to help Mash root herself on the ground. "Okitaaaaaa!" he yelled back.

"MASTEEEEEERRRRR!" was all Okita replied as she crashed face-first into Mash's shield.

The ground didn't break, thankfully, but the sound was probably heard all around Las Vegas.

Okita's jetpacks finally powered off, and she fell flat on the ground.

"Okita-san! A-Are you alright?!" then asked Mash as her shield disappeared from sight. She knelt and so did the Master.

There was no sign of her moving. Ritsuka placed a hand on his kouhai and let out a heavy sigh. "We lost her, Mash." He solemnly spoke.

"No…" softly replied Mash, a sad expression on her face.

Okita then raised her head. "I'm not dead!" she then shouted, annoyed. Mash was surprised.

Ritsuka smiled. "Welcome back, Okita." He merely spoke, and she blushed. "M-Master! W-Were you hurt? Did I hit you somewhere?!" she then asked, already standing and checking if Ritsuka was hurt.

Mash let out a sigh of relief, glad that she was fine. Ritsuka chuckled. "I'm alright, Okita. What about you? You fell out of the sky like you were shot down." He asked, and Okita cleared her throat.

"My jetpacks ran out of fuel!" she replied, giving him a thumbs-up. Ritsuka and Mash looked at each other, and then back to Okita. Both were confused.

"I forgot to check them out earlier and immediately went for my daily zooming in the Vegas skies!" she added, now giving them a double thumbs-up.

Mash chuckled nervously while Ritsuka sighed. "Come on Okita, you should be more careful, especially since this is a new Spirit Origin for you." He then replied, and Okita nodded.

"I, Okita J. Souji, promise to do better!" she spoke, and smiling, she glowed a bit before changing her own form.

"A Saint Graph Ascension?!" both Mash and Ritsuka blurted out.

Okita was now wearing her most prized swimsuit, colored white with light blue straps. Her blade was sheathed on her back.

"Ah, its her Third Ascension, Senpai." Commented Mash, and Ritsuka nodded. "Indeed, this is her cutest form." He spoke. Mash nodded with him as well.

"E-Eh? M-Me? C-Cute? T-That's…I could never…ehhhh…" mumbled a flustered Okita in a swimsuit.

"Ah that reminds me, Mash and I here was just strolling around before this Singularity eventually disappears. If you're not busy, maybe you can come with us?" Ritsuka then asked, and Okita immediately latched onto his right arm.

"Of course, Master! I would be honored to escort you and act as your guard as you walk around!" she spoke, her face going full red. Ritsuka himself was blushing too.

Mash, surprised at her action, decided that she won't just stand idly by anymore. She proceeded to latch herself onto the Master's left arm. "M-Mash Kyrielight, proceeding to g-guarding duties! Rest assured, Senpai, your c-cute kouhai will defend you from harm!" she declared, and Ritsuka blushed even more.

'This is not good for my heart! I feel lightheaded…' spoke Ritsuka, as he now began to walk, with two beautiful girls both latched onto his arms. 'I can feel their breasts…they're both soft…'

The Master of Chaldea tried his hardest not to experience a nosebleed on the spot. Truly, the summer season is a formidable foe!


As the three of them continued with their summer escapade, they were eventually joined by the GUDAGUDA crew.

The Demon King Nobunaga merely laughed at the sight of the Master seemingly holding himself together as two beauties were on his arms. "You make a good face, Master! Summer truly is worthwhile if I see you being a bumbling fool like this!" she spoke, laughing even more.

"It reminds me of the times you were a bumbling fool yourself, Boss! Man, that was hilarious too!" then remarked Mori, laughing heartily.

"You always were the type to speak your mind, weren't you Mori? If it were anyone else I would've shot them directly at the head!" Nobunaga replied, and she laughed alongside him.

"Nobbu! How could you say something like that to our Master so casually?!" spoke Okita, clearly mad.

"At ease, Okita. No need to be so stiff on yourself. You look good in that swimsuit, you should relax more." Then spoke Hijikata, who was eating shaved ice.

"T-Thank you Mr. Hijikata, but still!" spoke Okita.

Mash on the other hand was unusually silent. Ritsuka then looked at her, worried. "What's wrong Mash? Not feeling good?" he asked.

She then looked at him, smiling. "N-Nothing of the sort, Senpai!" she spoke, huddling herself further into Ritsuka.

She was blushing, and so was the Master.

"Tch, an outfit like that would only make you a bigger target in fights." Then grumbled Okada Izo.

"Indeed. Its cute but its not battle-wise." Then added Nagao Kagetora, who was all smiles as always. "But if Bishamonten permits then perhaps I should get one myself too! It does look stylish, after all!" she remarked.

"Izo's just jealous." Oryou then commented, and this annoyed the Assassin. "What was that you snake lady?!" he asked.

Sakamoto Ryouma immediately butted in. "Now, now calm down you two. Both make clear points but it's summer, and as such it's the perfect time for swimsuits." He then explained.

"Quite the rowdy crew, huh?" commented Ritsuka, and Okita huddled closer to him as well.

'I'm gonna die…' merely thought the Master.

"By the way, I haven't heard anything from you so…how is this swimsuit, Master?" Okita then asked, smiling as she looked at Ritsuka.

Mash looked at her, and so did the Master. Mash adjusted her glasses and tightened her grasp on Ritsuka's left arm.

"I'd like to give me your impressions if it suits me, or what to say…" she added, her voice going softer.

"Well, you look really cute in that swimsuit, I like it very mu—"

The Master was cut off as Okita unlatched herself from his arm. She was fully red.

"Hawaaaah! No that was nothing! Excuse me!" she simply blurted out, and ran away from the group.

"Ah Okita wait!" was all Ritsuka could say before they lost sight of her.


Nighttime came, and Ritsuka was all alone at the poolside. The Las Vegas Singularity had a large, odd pool that surrounded the entire place, although it was an efficient way of cooling down nonetheless.

He and Mash tagging along with the GUDAGUDA crew made them spend all their energy. After freshening themselves up back at the hotel, Mash fell onto the Master's arms, heavily asleep.

He smiled. "Mash really is cute huh?" he spoke to himself. He wasn't sleepy yet, so he let Mash peacefully sleep on his bed while he went out for a walk.

He was also looking for Okita.

Which wasn't all that hard seeing as she was resting on the poolside as well.

He approached her. "Good evening, Okita." He greeted.

Okita looked and stood up, smiling. "Ah, good evening Master!" she replied, latching herself again onto his arm, this time the left one.

Ritsuka stiffened up.

She noticed this and was concerned. "What is it, Master?" she asked, moving in closer to him. Her breasts were touching his arm again.

She smiled. "Now, now please take a walk at the beach, erm, poolside at ease." She spoke, cheeks further reddening but her smile unfading.

"Please leave the escort to this invincible and lovely swimsuit Okita-san." She added, as she then pointed at her blade sheathed on her back. "To any malcontents that get close to Master, I'll chop them down with a—Eh?" she spoke but was cut off when Ritsuka removed her from her arm.

"That's fine, so let's walk together…although we've been doing that for a while now." Spoke Ritsuka, as he offered his left hand. "Hold my hand." He said, smiling.

Okita blushed further, but her smile grew bigger. "Y-Yes! Okita-san will accompany you if you're fine with it!" she said and gently held the hand offered to her.

They walked underneath a beautiful moonlit sky, and the calm waters of the pool added to the scene's intimacy.

They were like a young couple in love, on a date on such a lovely evening.

"As much as it's a swimsuit form, the Assassin class me is… scary, isn't she?" she then suddenly said. They continued walking, and Ritsuka did not speak a word of reply.

Okita giggled. "In the times of the Shinsengumi it was said that 'Okita is hard to deal with because she recklessly slays people'." She continued. Ritsuka then stopped walking, and Okita followed suit.

"You aren't that scary." He replied, looking at her, smiling genuinely. Okita fully blushed.

"I-Is that so? R-Right!" she replied, fully smiling again. "I'm the lovely swimsuit genius pretty girl swordsman Okita-san!" she declared, and the Master laughed. She followed suit.

Okita stopped holding his hand and looked at him. Her smile was still present, but she showed a…softer expression. Underneath the light of the moon, Ritsuka was even more mesmerized.

"Thank you very much, Master…" she softly spoke, and Ritsuka smiled. "It's all good, Okita." He replied.

'She's so cute…I can't take it anymore…!' screamed Ritsuka in his thoughts.

He grabbed her by the hand and pulled her for an embrace. "M-Master? W-What's going on?" Okita asked, suddenly nervous at how forward the Master moved.

He then caressed her cheek with his right hand. He didn't speak, and leaned in closer, implying he wanted a kiss.

Okita stared at him and blushed harder. Her heartbeats went faster, but she let the Master hold her so gently. "Master…" she softly spoke, as she leaned in as well.

Their lips touched, and to the two of them, it was the best feeling in the world.

Okita surrendered herself fully to Ritsuka, placing her arms across his shoulders and her hands behind his neck.

'This is the best…I don't want this to end…' she thought, as Ritsuka pressed her body closer to his even more.
