Chapter 20 – Room Service and Swimming Pool

After enjoying the ladies’ skating show, we decided to have a late lunch.

“Wataru-san. What are we going to eat today?”

Carla-san asked me with an expression of uncontrollable interest. When it comes to food, Carla-san’s expression increases by 50%. Well, what shall we eat?

“Hmm, well, let’s try the eat in the room method today, shall we?”

Let’s show them how to use room service. But, you know, you can order as much alcohol (for a fee) and food as you want, right? I’m worried.

“Can we eat in our room?”

She’s curious. I feel like I’m being a bit hasty… I’m going to tell her, just in case.

“Yes, you can eat in your room. However, no matter how much you can eat and drink freely in your room, binge drinking is prohibited. Then, let’s go to my room.”

We all head to my room. I choose the menu on the TV. …The characters are in a different world style. If they were in English, it would have prevented binge eating and drinking. Oh, no, when I hover the cursor over it, a picture of alcohol appears. I’m sure the girls would understand just this.

“Can we order this? Wow, they do have alcohol, though it’s for a fee. It’s expensive, but if you consider that you can drink drinks from another world, it’s incredibly inexpensive.”

Alessia-san’s words were met with a reaction from the group of drink lovers. …I guess it’s going to be like this.

At any rate, there are a few of us, so we order from one end of the table to the other. Soup, two kinds of salad, three kinds of sandwiches, pizza, sausage, and potatoes. Each time I make a selection on the TV, a dish appears on the living room table.

Even if you don’t order on the TV, I think you could order it if you ask for it verbally in the room. …Should I not try? Too much convenience is also a problem.

One thing that amazes me is the sandwiches. There is steak or chicken on a piece of bread. There are knives and forks around it.

I’ve never eaten a sandwich with a knife and fork before. This is high society life, isn’t it? I think it’s a bit troublesome, but I guess I’m not a high-society person.

There are many dishes on the table. The atmosphere is like a simple party. We eat lively. The topic of conversation is mostly about skating. It seems to have been a lot of fun, and there is no end to the conversation.

Also, it is amazing how the ladies are completely familiar with the remote control. How can they use all those buttons without getting lost? They are crispy additions to the food that they like. That’s not to be underestimated.

After a late lunch, we all watched the skating video projected on the screen in the loft, which was shot with a video camera.

“Somehow, it’s strange to see yourself in it. Are movies made like this?”

Ilma-san asked me a difficult question. It’s the same thing as filming, but…

“Is it safe to say it’s like this? I think they’re making the films by having specialized people shoot with bigger, more expensive camcorders that I bought.”

I’m sure they use CG or something, but I can’t explain something I don’t understand, so I’ll stop.

“After all, there are people who specialize in that. Of course, I know that an amateur couldn’t make a story like that.”

It seems that she understands the difference between an amateur and an expert. That’s good. I wondered what I would do if she said she wanted to make a movie, too.

They are watching the video while making noise and giving their impressions. They seem to not care about the plump and boing-boing. Is it because it’s normal to shake in this world?

…A happening scene was played. I say the happening scene, but it was just that Alessia-san took a big jump in front of the camera and failed to land on the ground.

The foot she landed on slipped as if she had stepped on a banana peel in a cartoon, and her foot raised up like overhead, and her head hit the ice.

The scene on the ice was quiet, and everyone rushed to Alessia-san’s side. I was in such a hurry that I ran to her, too, so the image was blurry.

Claretta-san hurriedly applied a heal to Alessia-san’s head. Alessia-san, with teary eyes, is so cute. I wonder if we could have borrowed helmets? I should have borrowed one if it was available. That fall is dangerous.

I went to the counter and asked for a helmet, and there it was… I’m sorry, Alessia-san. I handed out helmets to everyone, but they refused, saying they would be careful and it would be fine.

I didn’t understand how women could refuse helmets even after such a catastrophe.

“Wataru-san, um, can’t you erase the part where I fell?”

Alessia-san asked me with a bright red face. …I wonder about it? Can I do it if I have a computer? …I guess I’ll have to download software to do it.

“It seems impossible.”

Alessia-san turns a disappointed expression on her face. I know how she feels. It’s incredibly embarrassing when you get carried away and screw it up, isn’t it?

“Well, just keep it in the back of your mind as a memory.”

“…I’d like to forget it, but I can’t seem to, so I’m going to seal the memory away. If possible, please try not to remember it either.”

So you’re treating it like black history. That level of embarrassment is mildly funny to me but not to Alessia-san, apparently. She must have had a smooth sailing life. I envy her.

The happening scene was over, and the women’s show started.

“As Wataru-san said, you’re right. It feels so strange to be wearing normal clothes.”

Alessia-san and the women nodding at her words seem to agree with her. Can’t we make some kind of clothes suitable for the show? As expected, brand-name clothes suitable for shows would not be sold. But if there were dresses, we might be able to make it work.

“But the moves aren’t bad. It was fun, and I’d like to try it again with a new outfit.”

Dorothea-san is enthusiastic, too. Oh, yes, there is a show at the Marine Theater, isn’t there? Girasole in a swimsuit, that’s exciting. But I want to teach them how to swim while having a good time, so I’ll appoint a staff member after I teach them how to swim. I’m sure the ladies will master it soon, so it won’t be a problem.

Since lunch was late today, we decided to have dinner on our own and parted ways with Girasole. Claretta-san said she would finish processing the swimsuits by the end of the day, so tomorrow, we would go to the swimming pool.

“Ines, Felicia, and Rimu, dinner isn’t ready yet, is it? Shall we take a bath on the balcony?”

“Fine. Hey, master, I’d love to have a drink while watching the sunset.”

Drinking alcohol, huh…? I feel like I drink every day, but… it isn’t a lot, and a little bit would be nice.

“Then let’s just have a bottle of champagne.”

“Fufu, thank you, Master.”

Soaking in the bath with two beautiful women and drinking champagne while watching the sunset. I don’t know what champagne tastes like, but at least I’ve made it.

Now if I can just manage to get Girasole to join my harem, I’ll be all set. …The problem is that I have no idea how to add them to my harem from here.

…In parallel with the strategy I thought of before to make them unable to leave the ship summoning, I’ll try my best to manage to have an adult relationship with them.

“Is there something wrong, Master?”

“Hmm? Oh, nothing. I was just thinking about something.”

“I see. The sunset is beautiful, so why don’t you think about it later?”

Felicia told me, and when I looked at the setting sun, the sky was tinted red. The sunset over the entire ocean… this is beautiful, isn’t it?

“Sure, it’s an awesome sight.”

I stare at the sunset while slowly soaking in the hot water. Thinking about it, I was so preoccupied with the ship’s facilities that I didn’t pay much attention to the scenery.

A few times, I had seen the scenery on the Lutto and the Hideaway, but once I got the ferry, I was satisfied with the ship and didn’t look at the scenery. The Seeker also had a nice view, but I didn’t watch the sunset. What a waste.

I watched the scenery until the sun went down, then went to room service for dinner and fell into bed because I didn’t feel like going out. Today… I’m going to bed early again today. Let’s spend some adult time.

………………

Today, we had breakfast at a cafe and received Ines’ swimsuits from Claretta-san. I change into my swimsuit in a nearby room and head to the pool.

Hmm, this is nice. Eight beautiful women with great style and great breasts are in bikinis. I’m glad I did my best to lead them to the bikini.

“This is pretty embarrassing.”

Alessia-san, looking a little shy in her red bikini, is fantastic. But Ilma-san is the most amazing.

…Even though she is already bewitching, Ilma-san, wearing a black triangle bikini, is wearing a tangled and erotic aura. I want to forget everything and jump on her. Is she a succubus or something like that?

I get on the elevator with my eyes wandering dazedly. This is wonderful. Even the wonderful view of the ship through the glass walls is no match for the bikini beauties around me. I feel like the elevator could stop at this point.

The elevator arrives without stopping.

“Wow, so this is what it’s like. Wataru-san, is that a swimming pool?”

There are several pools filled with water on the rooftop, zip lines, rock climbing, mini-golf, sports courts, and lots of fun.

“Yes, that’s right. Let’s go to the kiddie pool first.”

…We arrive at the kiddie pool. We do some light flexibility exercises (eye-opener) and get into the pool… unexpectedly, it’s too shallow. Practicing swimming here is conversely dangerous. I explained the reason to Girasole and moved to the adult pool.

When I entered the pool, the water was about chest-deep, so there was no need to go all the way to the kiddie pool at all. I felt a little empty.

“Then everyone gets in the water. Don’t be afraid; your feet will be safe.”

At my words, the women came into the pool. They seemed a little nervous, but as they got used to the water, they began to splash each other happily.

“Then, it’s time for some swimming practice.”

“Oh, yes, that’s right. Then I’ll ask you to start.”

Alessia-san volunteered to start, so I grabbed both of her hands and began practicing the fluttering motion. I guess her motor nerve must be different; her momentum of fluttering is different.

Alessia-san mastered the flop easily. I immediately switched with Dorothea-san. …I was about to lose all reason when I held both hands of Ilma-san, but my eyes were glued to Claretta-san when she got up from her butterfly feet with great vigor.

“Whew, Wataru-san, swimming feels good, doesn’t it?”

“Yes, it does. I love swimming too. I’m glad you like swimming, Claretta-san.”

“I never thought such a pleasure existed. Without monsters, even the water is a playground, isn’t it?”

Claretta-san says with a smiling face and a really happy smile. Her smile is dazzling.

Having mastered the crawl and breaststroke easily, it was time to practice the backstroke. Floating on her back, Alessia-san supports her back as she practices her fluttering legs. I think it’s inevitable that my eyes are focused on the fruit that is bountifully ripe.

By the way, Rimu and Fuu-chan are floating in the water. Fuu-chan’s wind magic seems to be unsuccessful on the surface of the water, perhaps because the resistance is too great. When they drifted close to me while floating, they sent out their thoughts like throwing them out.

It would have been cool if they could run on the surface of the water with the force of the wind, like a hovercraft. We may see a hovering Fuu-chan in the future when her magic skills improve.

In the morning, they mastered the crawl, breaststroke, and backstroke. As for the butterfly, I can’t do it, so there is nothing I can do. I enjoyed the pool with the ladies who had learned to swim without any problems.

It’s a lot of fun, to be honest. I never thought that I would be chasing after beautiful women in a swimming pool… I am so happy. Thank you, Creator God-sama.

“Master. Please be careful.”

“Thank you, Felicia.”

You know what that means.

A startling incident occurred when I got out of the pool to get ready for lunch. I was jumping on one foot to get the water out of my ear, and Claretta-san saw me do it and imitated me.

The two piles that almost jumped out of the water in a frenzy… I looked for the video camera, but it was on a table in another pool… Why didn’t I put it within easy reach? What a painful mistake.

“What’s wrong, Wataru-san?”

Since the video camera was not in my hand, Claretta-san called out to me as I was concentrating on trying to imprint it in my brain. As expected, I couldn’t say that I was staring at her breasts.

“I was thinking about where to have lunch.”

“That’s right. I was hungry because I exercised a lot. Is this a new restaurant today?”

She asked with an excited look on her face. I noticed behind Claretta-san was Carla-san since they both love to eat.

“Hmm, let’s go to a nearby restaurant called Healthy Menu & Romantic Bistro.”

The name is too romantic. All I know is that it’s healthy and romantic.

“It sounds amazing. I can’t imagine what kind of food they serve.”

You think so too, don’t you, Claretta-san? I totally agree with you.
