"Kasumi, tone it down!"

"Your impulsive behavior is not how a daughter of the Nana family should behave," Hiroichi immediately rebuked her.

"sorry...."

Kasumi knew she had been too impulsive, so she accepted her father's reprimand.

but--

"But Father, my sister Izumi and I also like Mahiro-nii. Why is it that only my older sister gets to date Mahiro-nii? That's not fair!"

"Oh?"

Hongyi sat back down, straightened his posture, and rested his chin on his hands.

The intense backlighting made it impossible to see his expression, and my gaze slowly fell on Izumi.

"Izumi, is that so?"

"Ah."

Quanmei nodded vigorously.

After this meeting, her choice remained the same as before, without any change.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that he's even more obsessed with finding the truth.

"I see... In that case, all three of you sisters should marry Yotsuba Mahiro."

Hiroichi Nanakusa said something unexpected.

This shocked Mayumi even more than when Yotsuba Mahiro said he wanted to marry all three of them.

"No, Dad!"

She was so overwhelmed that she could no longer maintain the proper etiquette of the Nanakusa family. "Are you really going to do this?"

She had never even imagined marrying the same person as her sisters!

"If it were just me, it would be fine, but if my sisters were added, wouldn't our Nanakusa family become a family that seduces its juniors and has no morals?!"

And she naturally became the bad woman who competed with her sister for a man.

Although she probably doesn't really care about these things, but.....

"So what? Do you dislike your junior, Shinsuke?" Nanagusa Hiroichi smiled.

Two rhetorical questions left Mayumi speechless.

As the head of the Nanagus family, he was truly envious of Yotsuba Mahiro's genes.

If all three daughters agreed, he would naturally want them all to marry Yotsuba Mahiro, and it would be best if he could be brought into the Nanakusa family!

In this way, not only will more outstanding offspring be born, but the proportion of the Nanagusa family will probably also increase in Yotsuba Mahiro's heart.

In fact, he had already seen through the truth.

I understand why Maya Yotsuba made Mayu Yotsuba leave the Yotsuba main family.

Based on his understanding of Maya, the claim that Yotsuba was abandoned was probably just a pretext.

In reality, it was probably because Yotsuba Maya couldn't completely control the other party, so she had no choice but to put them outside.

Moreover, he estimated that Maya Yotsuba was probably also trying to find a partner for Mahiro Yotsuba.

The most likely candidate is Miyuki Shiba, who recently emerged from the Yotsuba branch family.

and so--

"If you've made up your mind, then work towards that goal. I will fully support your decision."

Thus, with the strong support of Hiroichi Nanakusa.

Even though Mayumi had her own reasons for this and didn't know Yotsuba Mahiro's opinion, she still had to take action.

And now, summer vacation is only halfway over.

So Mayumi made her decision.

"Junior, let's go to the beach together!"

Summer is the perfect time to play at the beach, even in a futuristic magical world.

......

.....

...

"Wow, the ocean..."

A damp, salty sea breeze blows, and as far as the eye can see, there is only an endless expanse of azure ocean and white fine sand, with a few scattered seashells dotting the beach.

Kasumi shouted excitedly, her long, shapely legs exposed beneath her swimsuit, as she rushed toward the shore.

"Brother Mahiro, and Izumi too, come and play!"

The girl, who had already rushed into the sea and whose fair feet were being washed by the seawater, turned around and waved to them.

"Sister, be careful!"

Izumi chased after them worriedly, behaving like Kasumi's older sister despite being the younger sister.

Not far from Izumi, Miyuki was strolling on the beach, accompanied by the ripples of water, her pale feet covered with white sand.

However, her face looked somewhat tired.

This is of course.

After all, just a few minutes ago, she was being pestered by Izumi—

"...I am Nanakusa Izumi. May I call you Miyuki-senpai?"

This is what Izumi said when she first met Miyuki.

Her hands were clasped together as if in prayer, her eyes sparkling like stars, and her extraordinary beauty completely stunned her.

She was muttering things like "So beautiful" and "Just like a goddess" to herself.

The way it circled around the deep snow seemed somewhat familiar.

Although Miyuki maintained her gentleness, there was a clear hint of embarrassment and discomfort within that gentleness.

As for why she's here?

The reason is simple: Tatsuya went on a long trip and won't be back for a while, so he temporarily entrusted the care to Mahiro.

So he brought it along with him.

It is said that they went to excavate unearthed "sacred relics," and it is also said that the mission was sent by the military.

But if you think about it carefully—

"It must be some little trick played by that woman, Yotsuba Maya."

Looking at the lone figure of Fukatsu, Makoto muttered to himself.

At this moment, he was lying on a beach chair outside a villa a few hundred meters from the shore, quietly enjoying the sunshine and sea breeze, as well as the cold drinks that Shuibo had made himself.

Bathed in the warm embrace of the sun, he cast his gaze toward the distant horizon, emptying his mind and wandering in the boundless sky.

And so I temporarily immersed myself in the feeling of self-forgetfulness.

Until a shadow fell over his head.

"?"

He shifted his gaze and saw Mayumi bending over and staring at his face.

Normally it's fine, but wearing a swimsuit and bending over in a pose inevitably carries a hint of giving away freebies.

"I never expected that something that looks so small would be so well-endowed!"

Yotsuba Mahiro muttered to himself, having experienced this sensation firsthand.

"Something interesting? What are you talking about, Zhen Xunjun?"

Mayumi bent down deeply, holding her sun hat, and peered at him from the front while supporting herself on her knee with one hand, asking him a question.

She thought she heard Yotsuba Mahiro say something, but her voice was too soft for her to hear clearly.

However, the way he blinked his eyes created an unexpectedly cute and endearing contrast.

"Oh no, I meant that your swimsuit is really pretty."

"Really? Thanks."

Mayumi looked very happy.

However, he wasn't just making excuses; he was telling the truth.

Mayumi was wearing a sun hat on her head, but she was wearing a two-piece white swimsuit and a floral scarf around her waist.

Although it's a rather revealing outfit, it exudes the elegant charm unique to a young lady from a wealthy family.

"Do you mind if I sit here?"

"Please feel free to do so."

That's really strange.

They were on an island in the Ogasawara Islands, a private coast belonging to the Nanakusa family.

Even though it's her senior's territory, where she can do whatever she wants, she still came to ask for his opinion.

However, he still sat up from the beach chair because it seemed that Mayumi-senpai had something to say.

"Um... thank you so much for what happened at my house last time, junior, Makoto."

"Senior, are you talking about Mio Itsuwa and Hiroshi Itsuwa? Well... it was just a small thing, no need to thank me repeatedly."

Mahiro waved his hand as if he had done something insignificant, which made Mayumi burst out laughing.

"That's really like your style, Junior Shinjiro. Even though Mio is a strategic-level mage, you don't take her seriously at all."

To be honest, she was really grateful to Mahiro.

He came to keep that promise, which was like a joke, and even fought off Mio-nee for his own sake.

You could even say that he helped her solve the biggest problem of her life.

"How could that be?" Mahiro shrugged. "I have a lot of respect for Mio Itsuki, after all, she is indeed very strong. If the arena were changed to the sea..."

At this point, he suddenly paused.

While the abyss is more powerful in seawater, if it were actually in the ocean...

He should have won more easily then, right?

After all, if the seawater were frozen into glacial land, Mio Itsuki's magic would be completely rendered useless.

"Never mind, let's not talk about this anymore. By the way, where's Watanabe-senpai? Why didn't she come along?"

Mahiro was very curious.

The relationship between Mari and Mayumi is similar to that between Kitayama and Honoka; they are basically inseparable and always together.

But when he asked that question, Mayumi inexplicably threw a tantrum.

"Hmm...really, there's already such a beautiful girl who specially put on a swimsuit and sat here for you."

In the distance are the beautiful junior, Miyuki, as well as my sisters, and Ms. Sakurai who is taking care of you, junior, Mahiro.

He was still thinking about Morley.

"Junior Zhenxun is really a womanizer."

By the end, Mayumi's cheeks were puffed up high, just like a pufferfish.

"What is this all about?"

After being lectured like that, Mahiro was both amused and exasperated. "I just wanted to ask about Mori-senpai's situation... And if we're being honest, Miyuki and Mizunami are one thing, but Kasumi and Izumi are still middle school students. I haven't stooped so low as to lay a hand on middle school students, have I?"

"So, you don't deny that Miyuki-senpai and Sakurai-san are together?" A sly glint flashed in Mayumi's eyes.

Exploiting loopholes in language is just like the debate we had shortly after the start of the semester.

And most importantly, he really couldn't deny it.
