RM Vol 3: For a World without Boundary – Chapter 53: Prelude to the Stockholm Conference

The race... Well, to put it mildly, it was absolute anarchy. Turns out, it had been a no-holds-barred kind of race. This means that the Einherjar can use everything they have at their disposal to win the course, with the only requirement being that they must stay on their water scooters. And when you put forth some super-duper-powerful girls with built-in competitive streaks in a race, chaos would be the ultimate result.

From the get-go and all the way to the end, magic, and firearms of all sorts are traded between the three contestants. The amount of firepower being dished out at one given moment had been enough to warrant an intervention by Yggdra. My oldest lover had to erect a barrier for the spectators, otherwise people would be caught in the crossfire. Just the spectacle alone had warranted the full attention of everyone on the island. Soon enough, all the ladies, me included, had to join in the fun and cheering on the Einherjar. Emboldened by the attention they were receiving, the Einherjar put the pedal to the medal and came up with all manners of tricks in their arsenals to undermine the others. The race went up in terms of heat, up until the point that a mutually assured destruction befalled all contestants right at the home run.

In simpler terms, they blew themselves up sky-high, Einherjar and scooters included. While it must have been painful for them, it made for a hilarious sight to see such overpowered individuals freefalling from a kilometer high alongside parts and pieces of their rides. The icing on the cake here was that, instead of catching them, Yggdra removed the barrier, letting them fall headfirst into the sand like an ostrich would.

And the holes were quite deep too...

Of course, Architect, Adeline, and Alina were powerful enough to shrug off the landing or even save themselves the trouble of diving headfirst into the sand. But where's the fun in that? There's no doubt in my mind that the Einherjar had set themselves up like that to add to the harmonious atmosphere. A matter of which they accomplished successfully since the kids and most of the adults got a good kick out of it.

Once we'd finished pulling them out of the sand, the time had come for another activity. Eden's late arrival had caused the little girls, aside from Ningyo and Mei, to be very curious about the velvet-haired lady. Once they'd learned that Eden, alongside Elyisa, was a certified world-class idol, the more excited members of the girls started begging them to perform a seaside concert. While unplanned, the atmosphere and environment were more than adequate for them to get in the mood. Hence, with the aid of Nicolae and Yggdra, a concert venue was raised, with the Takodachis being the ones to play the instruments. It didn't take much time before the first note of music was heard, thus encapsulating the attention of both the newcomers and long-time enjoyers of the pair of idols.RêAd lateSt chapters at novelhall.com Only

By the time the hour-long concert was finished, everyone clapped and cheered for their performance. It was by this point that the ladies and girls started feeling peckish. Fortunately for everyone, Agent had long excused herself to prepare ingredients for a beachside BBQ party. With the coming of dusk, it was a good time for me to start the grilling process with the aid of Agent and Mommy Hel. Bonfires were lit, fireworks were launched, with food and drinks were constantly passed around the large group might fine ladies. Added in a mixture of laughter and singing and you got a perfect recipe for a wonderful night all around.

Now resting my back on a giant carpet that's enough for everybody, I lazily gaze up at the vision of the moon, breathing out in contentment. All around me are the women that I love and the girls that I've come to cherish due to many reasons. Yeah, this is a beautiful day alright, and it's only day one of the vacation. After that, it's back to the grind.

I have to bring my idle thoughts to a halt, however, as a limousine has opened its door to welcome me and Bryn inside. Once we're comfortably situated, the convoy starts moving with the marines removing the blockade of the harbor to allow us through.

"Do tell me again, Bryn, what's our itinerary for the day?" I asked of her while pouring us some wine.

Bryn nods, replying after pulling up a mental timetable. "The first day will be for the dignitaries to settle in. We will be checking in at the Hogberga Garden Hotel where a light breakfast will be served. After that, if you so wish, we can participate in an afternoon tea party later. It's by dinner though, that we will be seeing most, if not all the dignitaries in a public setting. It's only by tomorrow that the Conference will be held in a semi-public hall, spanning an entire week."

I nod idly while passing her a glass of luscious red wine. "So an entire week away from home then. Thanks Yggdra that Yuki made it so that we can have video calls whenever we wanted. Otherwise, we will be stuck with an incessant headache that is political and no fun.

I raise a toast with another glass of wine. "Cheers, for our cute little Marshal."

Bryn mirrors mine with a light smile. "Cheers. May our Marshal not feel too lonely without us around."

I giggle at that. "I sure as Hell can drink to that."
