CH 68

The sun was just about to set when we started playing around. I suggested that we split up.

“It’s time to go home.”

“I agree. I’m tired of playing.”

Lida, who had been moving the most, collapsed on the beach. She was the most energetic of the group.

“It’s been a while since I’ve exercised. I’m going to get sore muscles.”

“Me too~…haha, but it was fun.”

Both the president and Azusa were completely exhausted.

I ran out of steam and laid down.

“Yeah, I had fun, too. It was like a dream to be able to play with the three of you. I wish I had an infinite amount of time.”

“Let’s come back again then.”

When Lida murmured this, both the president and Azusa agreed, and promised to play again in the near future. We made a pact to play again soon. Well, okay, it was fun and …… eye candy.

The president and Azusa left by boat. I didn’t expect them to actually go back.

“Suzu-san is rich, isn’t she?”

“Yes, I heard she’s making a lot of money. The president never ceases to amaze me. Now let’s go home too.”

“Yes.”

As a matter of course, Lida held my arm. At the moment, she is wearing a swimsuit, so …… it seems like she is touching me almost raw. I’m so nervous it feels fuzzy……!

I finally get home to the apartment.

“Now, let’s go change.”

“I’ll go to the bathroom first. Do you want to come too, Oojirou?”

“No!”

“You don’t want to get knocked down again.”

“Oh, yeah.”

Lida headed for the bath.

I’ll take my time later.

I quickly wiped myself off and got dressed.

Then I proceeded to work and study for a while. For dinner, I ordered a “Moshi Burger” from Uber Eats delivery. I had a burger full of meat juice and a sweet coffee shake. It was delicious and Lida raved about it.

“I knew Moshi Burger had the best seasoning! I don’t mind McTonaruto, but I’m more of a Moshi Burger person.”

“Me too. It’s a little pricey, but it’s not a big deal when you can enjoy the rich flavor.”

After we finished eating, Lida said she wanted to play a game. My work was done and I was in the mood for a game too.

“Oojirou’s recommendation, please!”

“My recommendation? Well, the popular battle royale type games take time to get used to, so I’ll go for a casual MMORPG.”

“MMORPG! Great, I’ve played a few in Russia.”

Well, that saves me the trouble of explaining it.

“Okay, let’s do an MMORPG. The one I used to play to relax. It’s called Excalibur Online, and it’s a simple one with only swords and magic.”

“Oh, that sounds interesting. Well, let’s play that. Oh… but I don’t have a computer.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll lend you my self-made PC. I have three of them.”

“Really, you have that many? ……! Oojirou has a talent for making his own computers, doesn’t he? That’s cool~”

“No, no.”

I invited Lida into my room and got her a display, keyboard, and mouse. We sat shoulder to shoulder on a chair and started playing. I’m so close to Lida.

“I’m looking forward to playing with Oojirou.”

“Oh, yeah. I’ve already installed the online game, so you’ll just need an account ……, or maybe just my secondary account.”

The speakers started to play an epic background music. The title of the game, Excalibur Online, appears in big letters and the game starts!
