Episode 9: I Begin Training!-Part 2

Later in the night, everyone was eating the dinner. As Issei was eating a piece of boiled potatoes, she saw Akihiko drink a bowl of soup with a spoon. She imagined him in his abs. She looked to see Kabu with his chest out, then Richard with his well-toned chest in her sight. She blushed hard.

"The source of your magic comes from your imagination," she remembered Akihiko saying. "Forming a clear image in your head is essential."

"Everybody has their specialty," she remembered Kabu saying, an image of his small bulge appearing in her mind as well. "You're a perverted girl."

Speaking of the strong shouta himself, he looked up at her and shot her an annoyed glare. "You're making a lewd face," he stated to her.

She snapped out of her perverted thoughts and waved her hands in disapproval. "W-what?!" she blurted out. "N-not at all!" She laughed nervously to hide her lie, though he could see through it easily.

"Isa?" asked Richard.

She stopped laughing and looked at him. "Uh, yes?" she replied.

He smiled at her. "How do you feel after our first day of training?"

She frowned and looked down at her dish, remembering the moments in the day where she was weak. "Not well," she answered. "I mean, I was the weakest."

He nodded. "I can see why you think that. But with Ash's healing ability and your Boosted Gear, they're valuable resources for us. Our opponents know that as well, so make sure you protect yourselves and don't drag each other down."

She nodded back at him. Both her and the healer said, "Yes, sir." She continued looking down at her food though. That's true, I did get Asher-kun into this. She looked at him. But at least I have to protect him. I have to be able to. She remembered the times she failed when Raynark was alive. I won't repeat those mistakes ever again. Asher did blushed a little when she was looking at him, but quickly got it away before she could notice.

The red-haired King suddenly stood up from his chair and announced, "Once we are done eating, we'll take a bath."

Issei, being the perverted girl she was, stood up from her chair as well and blurted, "A b-bath?!"

He looked at her and smiled nervously. "Do you plan on peeking on us, Isa?" he asked. "You can be with us if you want. I don't mind." Her face began to glow red. He chuckled and looked at Akihiko. "What do you think, Akihiko?"

He chuckled as well and closed his eyes. "I wanted to try to wash a woman's back~," he replied. Her face grew even more red by the thought of it.

"Ash, do you want to object to bathing with your beloved?" he asked the blonde-haired male. He blushed and looked down at his food, making that a "yes" to him. Imaginary steam came out of the female pervert's ears.

"Kabu?"

"No," the white-haired boy replied coldly. Issei's blushing and steam disappeared by the sound of the word.

"Well, never mind then," Richard said to her. She fell down as if she fainted, not believing her hearing.

"If you peek, I'll hate you forever," Kabu warned her.

In the men's side of the hot springs outside of the mansion, all the males in the club were completely naked. Akihiko had his long hair all out. He and Richard was relaxing in the hot spring while Asher and Kabu sat at the washing area of it.

"Just as I thought~, these hot springs are great~!" the dark-haired man said in a relaxed voice.

Richard's pecs and abs glistened because of the water on them, trickling down and tracing them. "I hope this will decrease the amount of fatigue from training today, even if it's just a little bit."

Akihiko chuckled. His pecs and abs also glistened because of the water trickling down them. "It will, no doubt about it."

Meanwhile, Asher looked down at the ground and sighed. Ever since she ran into him in the shower, he could not get Issei's naked body out of his head. He tried to pray it away (only to get head-splitting headaches), but it was no use. He wanted to bathe with her...just to see her naked body again...he began to blush.

"Don't be one of those guys," Kabu said to him as he washed his own arm with a towel. He looked at him and nervously smiled.

"A-ah, well..." he replied, stuttering a little. "I-I don't plan to..." He didn't want to make her uncomfortable, but still...

...

Meanwhile, at the lady's side of hot springs, Issei, wearing a towel to cover up her whole body, was pressing her face on the wall to see the males naked. Yumi was naked, but while rubbing her hair with a towel, the towel covered her breasts. Both were in the hot spring pool, but their bodies weren't completely dipped into it.

"Issei-chan, you know that's a pointless-" the blonde-haired girl said before being cut off.

"Shut up, princess!" the perverted devil shouted at her. "This is also part of my training!"

She only sighed and looked at her, whispering to herself, "Why do you always need to be clairvoyant?"

Issei needed to see the men naked, but the wall kept them separate from her sight. She focused and focused, men's naked bodies on her mind.

"Specialty? Then what is mine?"

"You're a perverted girl."

She backed away from the hole and shouted, "This has to be my power!" She then let out a battle cry as she hit the wall.

Eye Catch #17: Akihiko is sitting on the checkered floor in only a pair of tight black briefs. His abs are shown and his knees are up, exposing his large bulge. His one finger is on his lips as if he were hushing someone. He's smiling and blushing. His ponytail hits the ground.

Alright, what did you think of this? A little short, but still not too shabby, right?

I'll see you in the next chapter!
