The Paradise of Reincarnation Begins with Eriri.

Lock onto the landing point.

Following muscle memory, toss it gently.

Under the watchful eyes of Kiyono Makoto and the girls, the white marble traced a perfect arc and fell into the sea.

puff.

Water splashes, phosphorus splatters, strange and wonderful (seven) private v slips up.

Without hesitation, Kiyono Makoto quickly dived into the sea and began searching for marbles.

Before long, a white, round object was spotted in the upper right corner of the fishing net. Swimming over to check, it turned out to be the marble that Kato Megumi had just thrown down.

Without the safety net to catch it, this marble would most likely have sunk into the thick silt, and finding it again would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

But at this moment, the marbles are in a very conspicuous position, and Kato can easily pick them up as long as he goes into the water.

The only problem was that the marble rolled onto the edge of a reef, which posed a slightly higher risk.

"...Should we move over?"

Kiyono Makoto hesitated for two seconds, then quickly shook his head and gave up.

This is a sealing challenge unique to Kato. If you act rashly, it might lead to failure. It's best not to touch it.

"The marble has been found."

Kiyono Makoto surfaced and wiped the seawater off his face:

"Perfect landing point, Kato can come down now."

Hearing this news, the girls were naturally overjoyed, as their hard work had paid off.

"Kiyono-kun, please wait a moment, I'll be right there."

Kato Megumi pursed her beautiful lips and quickly took out her swimsuit from her suitcase.

Arriving at the spot where Kiyono had just descended the cliff, Kato Megumi wore a troubled expression.

The slope was very steep, and although Kiyono Makoto could descend it easily, the risk was still quite high for him.

"Don't move, wait for me to go up."

Kiyono Makoto quickly swam to the sea and climbed back up the basalt cliff with swift and decisive movements.

"stare--"

The girls all turned their gazes toward them.

The well-defined abs, the V-line that makes your heart race, and the water droplets flowing down the lines all make your mouth dry and your heart race.

Shy girls, like Shoko, were already blushing and looking down at their toes.

"Let me carry you down; the slope is too steep." Kiyono Makoto shook the seawater off his hair and looked at Kato Megumi. "Or should we change into our swimsuits first?"

"Eh..."

Kato Megumi looked around and saw that the area was completely empty; there wasn't even a single rock to shelter herself from.

"Um...can I go downstairs to change?"

At least when you get to the bottom of the cliff, there's a cliff face to hide in, and you don't have to do it in front of everyone. Even a saint would feel ashamed to change into a swimsuit in front of others.

"Going down to change is fine too."

Kiyono Makoto squatted down, and whether he was on top or on the bottom, the difference wasn't significant.

"Thank you, Kiyono-kun."

Kato Megumi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and under the gaze of the girls, stretched out her arms and gently hugged Kiyono Makoto's neck.

The girls reacted differently to this scene.

Eriri's pink cheeks puffed up slightly for a moment.

The senior student narrowed her eyes slightly.

The science-oriented girl subtly pushed up her glasses.

Shoko... is still a quail-like girl.

Nishimiya Yuzuru crossed her arms, looking somewhat disappointed in her sister, but since her sister remained silent, she didn't interrupt rashly.

Kiyono Makoto quickly stood up and looked at the girls beside him:

"Kato and I are going down to do a mission. See you later."

"Junior, be careful."

"Don't be impulsive, safety first."

"Qingye must be careful."

"..."

The girls offered their concern and words of advice.

Kiyono Makoto nodded, carried Kato Megumi on his back, and began to move.

"...Is he an idiot?"

Yuzuru Nishimiya's eyes widened, her heart pounding with fear, and she couldn't help but whisper to her older sister:

"To actually carry someone down a cliff, that's just too dangerous."

Nishimiya Shoko's face showed no worry, only trust:

"Kiyono-kun is super amazing, she'll definitely be fine."

Yuzuru Nishimiya: "..."

There's no hope. My sister has clearly been brainwashed by that guy.

Under the tense gaze of the girls, Kiyono Makoto carried Kato Megumi on his back and climbed down the cliff with steady and neat movements.

boom.

Kiyono Makoto jumped onto a rocky platform that was only a few square meters in size.

"Kato, you can come down now."

Kiyono Makoto put the saint-like student down from his back, waved to the girls on the cliff top, and then jumped into the sea:

"Change into your swimsuit first, I'll wait for you in the sea."

"Thank you, Kiyono-kun."

Kato Megumi's pretty face flushed slightly. After thanking him, she opened her backpack and began to change into her swimsuit.

A moment later, Erlin? Mixed with his father Er Yueyi.

The girl's light and pleasant voice reached Kiyono Makoto's ears:

"Kiyono-kun, I'm all changed."

Kiyono Makoto was swimming on his back in the sea when he heard the shout. He turned his head to look at the bob-haired girl, and his eyes lit up slightly.

The limited-edition swimsuit version of Saint-kun makes a dazzling appearance.

The swimsuit is a common two-piece style, light pink in color, quite simple, with a decorative puffy trim at the bottom.

Saint-classmate has a slender figure, snow-white skin, and a distinct collarbone. Her soft, snow-white skin is faintly visible. She is neither too big nor too small; she is neither as plain as Eriri nor as large as Futaba, which makes one feel inferior. She is just the right size.

The gaze continues downwards, then falls upon a taut waist. Although there are no abs, the navel is clearly a vertical line, making one's mouth dry.

"Ahem... the swimsuits are super cute."

Kiyono's heart skipped a beat as he sincerely praised her.

My seventeen-year-old classmate is indeed incredibly cute.

"Eh, is it because of some private matters? X... Thank you, Kiyono-kun."

Kato Megumi turned her body slightly to the side, her tone indifferent, but a closer look revealed a subtle upward curve at the corners of her lips.

"Don't rush down," Kiyono Makoto gently reminded him. "Do some warm-up exercises."

"Okay."

Kato Megumi readily agreed.

Since it concerns safety, we cannot be careless.

Although I won't be in any life-threatening danger with Kiyono-kun by my side, I'm sure it would cause him trouble if something unexpected happened.

As she thought about it, Kato Megumi did some stepping in place and jumping jacks.

Given the limited space on the rocky platform, the environment should be a priority for warm-up exercises.

Kiyono Makoto originally intended to turn away, but his gaze was quickly captured by an indescribable attraction and he couldn't look away at all.

If it were a school swimsuit, jumping jacks would be nothing special, but Kato Megumi is wearing a two-piece swimsuit now. During warm-up exercises, her little bunny suddenly comes to life, showing a lively, energetic, and wonderfully youthful vitality.

"Kyono-kun~"

Noticing the boy's gaze, Kato quickly covered his chest with his right hand and looked over calmly.

"I'm so sorry... I'll turn around right away."

Kiyono silently admitted his mistake and turned away.

Looking at Kiyono Makoto's back, the corners of Masato's lips curved slightly for a moment before he continued his warm-up exercises.

A few minutes later.

Splash!

Kato Megumi, like a mermaid maiden, leaped into the sea, splashing up a spray of cool water.

"Hmm... the seawater is so cold."

Kato Megumi gently pursed her beautiful lips.
