Chapter 89: Extra: The Vinyl Pool, The Clown, And The King

TL: Akabane

***

It was June and the season was already turning into summer. The sun was already shining brightly, and short sleeves were the norm for everyone. It was one such day.

"Summer in Tokyo! Seriously, it's so hot!"

"Sorry, sorry. I'll buy you a beer later! Gyahaha!"

I was working on DIY projects in the courtyard of the Tagichi dormitory with Kekai-senpai. One day, Kekai-senpai suddenly came up with the idea of building a bar counter in the courtyard. He entrusted me with the design and construction of the bar counter. This was my first construction job after the time leap. I designed it with a lot of hobby in mind and secured the materials. And after a month or so, I had built and assembled each prefab.

[TL: DIY = Do It Yourself.]

"But you really know your stuff, don't you? I'm glad I ordered from you. Kukuku. I'm going to raise this year's Tagichi dorm up! Hahahaha!"

"A bar will appear on campus before you know it, seriously, our dormitory is a freebie...hahaha!"

I built a full-fledged bar counter and roof. It is a magnificent building, fully earthquake and fire resistant. I hammered in the last nail with a hammer. And finally, today, I was able to complete the project.

"Oops! Pre-opening!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! For our bar!"

""Cheers!""

The two men toast a bottle of beer and drink it all at once. The bar, "Kekai Kanata," is complete. The counter faces outside, just like a food stall. Naturally, there is also indoor seating, including comfortable sofa seats and a tatami matted floor.

"I've worked up a good sweat! I'm going to take a long bath. How about you? The bathrooms in our dormitory are pretty nice. There's a sauna."

"No, let me soak in the afterglow of completion here for a little while longer. Oh...my building is so cute..."

"Oh, oh. Well, do as you please."

I thought I saw a slight Kekai-senpai give a drawl at me moaning about the building. I was sitting alone at the bar counter, sipping a few beers and enjoying my "man time" by myself. Aahh! Dandyism!

"Eh? What's this? Kanata! What do you mean!!!!"

I turned around and there was Milan. She is really summery and sexy in a sleeveless shirt and hot pants.

"Why is there a bar! I thought there was nothing there when I went out this morning!"

"Phew! This is a piece of cake for me, a super architect! Kuhaha!"

"Kanata, I didn't know your architecture was just about your knowledge. That's amazing!"

Milan sits next to me, looking at the bar's interior with a happy smile.

"It looks like a stylish tropical bar! Cool!"

"Yeah. I designed it in Waiha in a susy mood. You could say it's one of my masterpieces. Kukuku."

"Waiha shisu? I don't really understand, but the atmosphere is nice. Ufufu. By the way... What is that?"

Milan pointed to one of the building's facilities. It was a mezzanine terrace a little higher than the bar, where a certain thing was placed.

"Kukuku, are you curious?"

"That's right. Why is there a vinyl pool on the terrace?

"Well, the initial idea was to build a swimming pool. But that was too much to ask for! Ahaha! So instead, I built a terrace and put a plastic pool there! Hahaha!"

I put it there just to feel like I was in the tropics for the time being. I'm thinking of putting in some goldfish and making an aquarium.

"Heh. But a pool.... A pool...a pool!!!!"

Milan stands up and pulls my hand.

"Kanata! I just got back from work! I've been in a hot studio, changing outfits over and over, taking commercials! Hey! Yes! Just a little bit! I might have worked up a sweat!"

"Hoo. I see."

"So, Kanata, you're sweating too, aren't you, after all that DIY work?"

"Yeah, that's right. I should take a bath soon."

I already know what she's going to say. But you know what? You shouldn't say it in such a roundabout way. That's why they call you a virgin!

"Oh, I can't get through to you...! No! You know what I'm talking about, and you're just letting me through! Kanata, you're testing me, aren't you! I know you're trying to test me!"

"Eh? I don't know what you're talking about! I don't know!"

"Kanata! Me--!"

Milan grabs me by the shoulders and brings my face close to her. Her eyes are glazed over and she's all red.

"Come sweat with me...!"

I wish all the men in the world would stop inviting women to love hotels with this line.

"That's a great choice of line. If you weren't beautiful, you'd be a virgin, and that would be really gross."

It's indeed not acceptable to pass as a virgin and come off as a non-motivated male.

"Kanataaaaaa! I'll wash your sweat off!"

Milan declared as she licked her tongue. But, I'm a guy after all. I'd be totally smitten if a girl said, "I'll wash your back." But...

"But what is it? I don't feel sexy at all even though it's said by such a beautiful woman. I feel a creepy safety characteristic of virgins. It's okay. Let's go in the pool."

My chastity seems safe even if I go into the pool alone with this beautiful woman.

"Good!"

Milan-san struck a gut-punch. You're so cute like this! I wished you were always cute like this!

We went up to the mezzanine terrace and Milan and I stood in front of the plastic pool. To enter the pool, you need a swimsuit, of course. And if it's a swimsuit event, of course there will be a fun event where we talk about how cute and erotic girls in swimsuits are. And yet...here we are....

"No swimsuits, right? This can't be helped now....nn!"

Milan shyly put her hands on her shirt and took it off. Then she blushed as she hid her bra with both hands.

"Don't stare at me too much..."

The construct of the black bra and white skin was dazzling. A black bra looks so good against her silver hair.

"Erotic and cute!"

"It's not fair that I'm the only one taking it off. Kanata, hurry up..."

I take off my shirt as she urges me to. I think I have a very muscular body.

"You're so muscular.... Hey...can I touch your boobs?"

"I don't have boobs, you idiot."

"Oh no! Don't be mean to me! Yuzuriha told me about it! "Kanata gave me a boob head massage!""

"Girls talk about everything so easily, don't they! ...Do you want to?"

Milan gulped down some spit and nodded.

"Go ahead..."

I held out my hands. Milan blinked her eyes, then her cheeks flushed red and her forehead was against my chest.

"Thank you very much...!"

I then jerked my pecs up and down.

"Ah! It's rubbing! Nnnn! My head is rubbing against Kanata's breasts!"

"Oi! Are you really a student at my university? You're really stupid!"

Milan, who received my boobs head massage right in front of her face, is already smiling a very, very sloppy smile. I can only imagine that fans would be disillusioned and throw money away with a deadly force if they saw this. After the boobs head massage, Milan took off her bottom hot pants. Her shapely buttocks and nipples, wrapped in black shorts, were revealed. She really is a superb beauty in these areas. The fact that she was embarrassed to be seen by me was also very cute. But she is a virgin! What the hell!

"You're using a boxer, aren't you?

"I'm sorry, but we don't allow touching pants in our house. Please be patient."

"Gah!"

Milan was seriously sad. No, you can't. You can't touch my pants. Well, we only do up to the boobs head massage. What? When did I become the kind of guy who would do such a shabby service? I take off my pants and put on a pair of boxer shorts. And we're like....

"Well, let's go in then..."

"Oh, oh..."

We both got into the plastic pool. Because of our strange nervousness, Milan and I ended up sitting next to each other in the gym. The water soaked us up to about our navels.

"Wow. It's such a different view just a little higher up..."

"Actually, I also picked a point with a good view and arranged the terrace. I guess I'm proud of this view."

The view of the university campus spreads out before us. The terrace is a little higher than usual, but it still gives us a somewhat unusual coloring.

"Yeah. Right! Yeah!!! ...It's so nice, Kanata..."

Milan rests her head on my shoulder. I was so thrilled by the feel of her soft cheek. And the feeling of our naked shoulders touching each other is terribly comfortable. Oh, God. It's not fair that you always do stupid things, but only at times like this you come up with a nice girl. Then Milan went around to my back.

"Let me wash your back...!"

"Oh, yes.... Please do...!"

Milan scoops up water with both hands and gently runs it down my back. It feels nice and cool there alone in the hot summer sun. And yet, every time that water flows, I get a thrill of excitement that makes me shiver.

"Your back... really big..."

Milan's fingers traced my back. I almost shiver at the soft, smooth feel of it.

"You always protect people with this back, don't you? I'm one of them. That makes me very happy."

Milan's hand comes around to my front. I could feel her breasts on my back. They felt soft and very gentle, unlike mine as a man.

"Kanata. I'm... When I ran away from Hagiri's place and relied on you, I was really scared. I knew that Hagiri was a strong and scary man. But when I saw you, my intuition whispered to me. He must be the king. And it was right."

Milan hugs me tightly. I felt warmth and tenderness from behind as he rubbed my cheek.

"That's why. I always have a good time under you. Did you know? One of the origins of an actor is that of a clown with a king. That's why I want to be your clown."

Saying this, Milan kisses my cheek. I turn to look at her. She looks different. A glamorous "woman's" smile.

"You're a really funny girl, Milan."

"Thank you. But you pulled that out of me. So I'm sure I want to be your own personal clown."

"Then, let's enjoy this moment! Here."

I splash water on Milan's face. She laughs and splashes water back in my face. We had a great time in the small pool, joking around with each other. The only thing I didn't tell her was that her bra and pants were actually transparent. I thought it was my perk and asked her to forgive me for that. It was a fun day, and the beginning of a great summer.

***Author musings***

What the hell is this guy? Milan-chan is just plain sexy! What the hell is going on!

Yes. I'm going to talk a little about the setting, or rather, the direction of the work.

I think everyone is aware that Kanata is a "king".

That's why the Tokiwa group is a kingdom and:

Kanata = King

Ayashiro = Queen

Milan = Clown

Yuzuriha = Prime Minister

Something like that.

Actually, I thought that the use of the feeling "Kanade" in Kanata's name came from the superlative honorific "Kanasu".

Ayashiro's name is Himena -> Hime, just like that.

May their kingdom of happiness continue for many more years!

Please wait a little longer for Season 4. We are currently working out the details!

Please look forward to it!

Season 4 will be Ayashiro's story set in a certain liberal arts circle.
