And so, that weekend...
The sky was a clear blue, and the sand glittered in the sunlight. Right at the edge of the gently lapping ocean waves stood a giant of a man wearing only a Speedo. At his feet lay a young man wearing normal clothes, but he was curled up in the fetal position.
“Come, Jirahal! How about a swim!”
“Youtrickedmeyoutrickedmeyoutrickedme......”
“I did no such thing! What I said was ‘There will be beautiful girls playing around at the ocean,’ was it not?”
“I didn’t hear anything about him being present, Father!” Jirahal’s accusatory finger was pointed toward Shouzou, who happened to be in the middle of walking over.
“Ha~ha~ha, he’s much livelier than I had expected!” Shouzou said while smiling. The swimming trunks that he was wearing were his favorite pair, the pair that he had been using lovingly for the past ten years.
Despite being the one doing the finger pointing, as Shouzou gradually drew near, Jirahal became increasingly terrified.
“Eep?!”
“Ohhh, look at that shut-in diving into the ocean and swimming with such determination! It’s just like your dad friends said: bringing him outside even if it required resorting to trickery was indeed the right call.”
“......So it seems.” (← somehow understood that Jirahal was terrified of him and thus was just running away, but he couldn’t bring himself to say that out loud)
After seeing Marquis Goldas dive into the ocean in pursuit of his son, Shouzou turned around. Before his eyes was the sight of a certain blond who had a modest chest and yet the biggest attitude of all.
“I see...... this does indeed feel quite liberating.” Elizabeth was wearing a red bikini and standing with her hands on her hips. However, her face and skin was all red, and she also appeared to be slightly quivering.
“Elizabeth-san, h-how are you, um, not embarrassed in that outfit......?” Sofie, in contrast, was wrapped up in a towel from the chin down, and was hugging herself shyly.
“Can’t you tell that I’m super embarrassed right now?! What is this? I’m almost completely naked right now, aren’t I? But I can’t back down just because of that and admit defeat. Not with that around!” Her resentful eyes were directed toward Silvia, Shouzou’s wife. Her enormous breasts seemed in constant danger of spilling out from the white bikini that she was sporting.
“Thank you for always helping my husband out so much.” Silvia was going around offering her greetings to each of Shouzou’s coworkers.
From her resting spot underneath a large parasol, Lalaine, who was actually still in her usual clothes, was clutching her knees (well, in her case, the snake-like lower half of her body) and making herself as small as possible. Not knowing where to look, her eyes were simply darting around erratically.
Next to her, Moko’s tail was wagging furiously. The one-piece swimsuit that she was wearing actually also had a hole in the back for her tail to pass through.
“Onee-san, are you really married to Oni-occhan?”
“Yes I really am.”
“He didn’t blackmail you?”
“If I’m being honest, then technically it was me who compelled him.”
“Onee-san, you’re such a nice person......” But even while saying that, Moko’s eyes never left Silvia’s breasts.
Similarly, Elizabeth gazed at the two heavy-looking bountiful bosoms. “I’m not entertaining any fantasies of being able to win against those. However, my pride would not allow me to cringe and hide in a corner just because of that. You actually have rather splendid ones, Sofie! So get yourself together!”
“Eliza-san wait a—?! D-Don’t take my towel—” But Sofie’s plea fell on deaf ears. Her towel was snatched away, causing her body to be revealed.
Her swimsuit was also a bikini type, but the pareo served to lower the degree of exposure. However, as the pair next in size after Silvia’s own, Sofie’s twin mounds jiggled alluringly.
Shouzou quickly shifted his gaze toward his beloved daughters.
“Warm~ups!” At Yuna’s command, her other two sisters began doing calisthenics. Kana did them begrudgingly, and Hina cheerfully.
Kana’s current situation was preluded by a mad dash toward the ocean immediately upon arrival at the venue followed by a severe scolding from Yuna.
“The ocean is a scary place, understand? Even though Dad and Mom are here with us, you can die if you get careless!” Even Kana, who normally loved to push her luck, found herself overwhelmed by her older sister’s threatening attitude and was unable to say anything in rebuttal.
While watching the exchange between his daughters with a warm smile, Shouzou laid a heavy hand on the shoulder of the young man standing beside him. “Well then, Sidorias-kun, shall we also get started on warming up?” The ogling look on his face had apparently earned him the ire of someone he could not afford to.
“Um, that’s...... I am very glad and thankful that you’ve invited me here today, but......” Unable to look at Shouzou directly, he voiced his question in a voice colored with apprehension.
“What exactly is it that we are going to be doing for this ‘special training’......?”
Currently the kingdom was quite inconvenienced by a water dragon. The Dragonslayer set off to subjugate it, only to have the effort end in failure due to being seasick. But that was only natural, since he had no prior experience riding in a ship or swimming.
“Do you not want to defeat the water dragon?”
“If you put it that way, then yeah of course I want a rematch. It vexes me that I wasn’t able to give it my all.”
“Mm. It was because I had thought you would say those exact words that I called you here today.” Although Shouzou generally preferred to keep work from entering his private life, he wasn’t completely against resolving the worries of a promising youngster during this outing.
And thus...
“Let’s train together, Sid-onii-chan!”
“Training~!”
The entire Onigawara family was going to lend its full effort toward Sidorias’s training—
Incidentally, Sofie’s aunt, Adora, also had every intention of coming, but she got too excited and drank too much the night before, so she couldn’t that day due to a terrible hangover.
