Chapter 85: Pool

Words: 2,343

They didn't have a bad relationship, but years of avoiding each other and trying to be better than each other, especially Alice in the kitchen left a mark.

I learned how to cook from Erina and heard all of this directly from her.

We cooked a few things that evening, and she said my most recent dish showed improvement.

The girls will start training exercises in the morning.

The portal itself was located directly in the doorway of one of the unused rooms in the Nakiri mansion. 

I had to get some money first before I took the girls to train with the masters.

I could create money to appear out of thin air or just hack into a bank account or the account of a rich person, but it was easier to talk to Sanzaemon, who was one of the richest people in Japan.

"... So, I made a deal with them about the training sessions. But yes, I also promised them a million yen each per hour... well, except for your granddaughter. Hayato said he's already her master."

I told Sendzaemon in his office and skipped some details. 

He looked like he had doubts, and I totally get that.

After opening a portal next to me, I could see the beach in Los Angeles on the other side.

I created a ball that fell to the floor next to it while bouncing a few times and then rolled away.

"Hmm, I see." 

Sanzaemon nodded. 

"Creating money is not difficult for me..."

Yen began to appear out of nowhere and land at my feet, but I quickly removed them.

"But still, I thought it reasonable to just come to you."

"So... besides martial arts masters, there are also magicians?" 

Sanzaemon asked, clearly organizing his thoughts.

"I'm not sure... Let's just say our group appeared here due to certain circumstances."

"One more question... you're not deceiving Erina, are you? This isn't some kind of sect?" 

After this question from him, his ki began to spread in all directions. 

He didn't do this on purpose, but he was very serious about his question even though he knew he was much weaker than me.

This didn't stop him from doing everything he could to secure his granddaughter's safety.

"No, Erina is our friend, and those who try to hurt her will have to deal with all of us." 

I said it seriously. 

It sounded like something out of several heroic fantasy novels, but it was actually true.

Erina had become a good friend to me.

I feel close to everyone in the chat because they were some of the first people I "met" when I entered the DC world.

"Haha, and how lucky she was to meet you... and you?" 

He couldn't help but be curious while realizing from my eyes that I wasn't lying about being friends with his granddaughter.

"She can explain that herself if she wants. It's not a worldly secret, but ask her yourself, and if she says yes, so be it. I am Erina's friend, and I meant any help that might be needed. I can fully heal, grow limbs, destroy islands, change the worldview of a rational being, and much more..."

"Destroy islands?" 

Sanzaemon stared at me with a look of incomprehension in his eyes. 

"This is... oh, well, I don't want to delve into details."

He shook his head. 

"I'm too old for all this... but... thank you." 

Sanzaemon said it seriously, looking straight at me. 

"But fortunately, healing no one..." 

He suddenly stopped in mid-sentence, and it was clear that he had caught a thought that had not occurred to him before in his eyes. 

"Um, do you know about Erina's mother?"

"She hardly ever talked about her, and I only know that she also has the 'God Tongue,' right?" 

"Yes, Mana was born with a rare genetic trait in our family, but this gift also became her curse because it developed excessively in her. At first, she found it difficult to eat regular food because it was disgusting to her. Soon, even many top chefs couldn't do anything... She began to experience psychological and physical hatred for tasting food even the smells. It began to break her because she simply couldn't find suitable food for herself, so she gets her nutrients via IV injections to avoid eating 'unappetizing' food." 

"Erina has the same trait." 

I said. 

"Yes... but it hasn't gone as far for her, and I hope it doesn't happen with these friends." 

"I can help with that. I'll just lower her senses to an acceptable level or give her the ability to switch between such senses."

I shrugged. 

It's absolutely easy for me to do. 

"After all, she's Erina's mother, and I think she would be happy if she returned... but the fact that she abandoned her daughter for that reason is... disheartening." 

I said, and Sendzaemon himself just smiled bitterly. 

He allocated money for Erina's training even giving extra for the whole week... but those nothing to him. 

Currently, I went to stay with the girls while he talked to Erina who was looking for food that would satisfy her.

"Oh, Anthony-kun, we were just talking about you." 

Rias smiled as I emerged from the portal that appeared next to them. They were all currently in one of the living rooms of the mansion. 

"I hope not in a bad way?" 

"Nah, rather in a twisted... ouch." 

Shinoa jumped aside from the stinging spell, looking at Hermione with the feigned offense. 

"Don't make such a face. You didn't even feel it because of your aura."

Hermione snorted, crossing her arms over her chest. 

"We were talking about the danger of our worlds, and judging by the facts, your world is the most dangerous among all of ours." 

Winter said, sitting in a chair and holding a white teacup in her hands. 

"Well, there is that, yeah." 

I nodded without much thought and sat down next to Rias who patted the spot next to her.

"And they were also talking about your big..." 

Shinoa began and immediately glanced at Hermione, who was preparing to use some spell. 

"...heart, yes." 

Shinoa said this and glanced at the blushing Hermione. 

"What do you mean?" 

I looked at Rias who was smiling. 

"Heh, and you won't find out," 

She stuck out her tongue, a slight blush appearing on her cheeks. 

"Are you ready for training with the masters? And yes, I think you'd better get 'Fundamentals of Ki Control' from the Dimensional store."

"I thought about it too. According to Erina, she only felt something changing in her body for a moment, and she also suddenly understood how to control this energy." 

Winter nodded at my words. 

"Um, that's right. The information just appeared in my mind, and there were no problems learning it." 

Erina confirmed.

"As well as with the following training."

The masters were already waiting for them when they came through the portal to the school. 

These masters had just been knocked down, so they paid even more attention to their progress in martial arts, but no one would ignore new students either.

Then five beauties appeared at the dojo's doorstep, Miu gave Kenichi a nudge as he was just staring at the emerging girls. 

The training changed a bit when it was discovered that the girls' physical strength was at least at the level of a Low-Class Master. 

Rias was even stronger because her demonic physique gave her extra benefits.

They didn't have to torture themselves as Kenichi did, but it was a different story when it came to learning different techniques and combat skills.

Hermione was the weakest in hand-to-hand combat and technical skills, which became obvious within the first half hour. 

The next "weakest" was Rias. 

She couldn't do much in a direct battle without using magic or "Destruction." However, she could still do something different unlike Hermione.

After Rias, Erina turned out to be the strongest, with her Ki training having progressed enough for her to use "Seidou Goitsu" for a short time and become stronger. 

Furthermore, Hayato clearly taught her some basics. Next was Shinoa. She didn't usually fight with her hands but she knew how to fight Kensei Ma.

Of course, Kensei could knock her out in the first few seconds of the fight because he was even physically stronger and had more experience.

Winter was the most powerful in combat, but she was the general's right hand, so it's not surprising that she could fight without a weapon.

They all acquired 'Fundamentals of Ki Control (C)', which immediately strengthened them. 

Rias even surpassed Hayato by a large margin in terms of Ki quantity. 

Rias' Ki is a lot like Senjutsu from her world, and now that she can use it, she can combine it with magic or simply enhance herself physically.

After the first training session and understanding how to use Ki, they all somehow moved to a "higher level,". 

Life energy under conscious control works wonders. 

"I didn't bring a swimsuit..." 

Hermione whispered quietly upon learning about the plan to visit the local public pool.

It's been half an hour since today's training ended, and we've all moved back to the Nakiri mansion.

"Um, well... hmm." 

Rias seemed to want to offer hers, but her gaze fell on Hermione's chest which was... smaller than hers, yes. 

"Haha."

Shinoa grabbed her stomach and laughed into her hand, trying not to laugh out loud. 

"There are shops nearby, you can go and buy..."

Winter said.

"I'll need to pick one too."

She added calmly. 

"Oh, my arms still hurt a bit from those stances."

Rias "complained". 

"It will help you because the ability to fight in close combat will be useful in any case."

I said this and looked at Hermione whose bust was even smaller than Shinoa's, so it wasn't like she was offended by her laughter. 

Hermione and Shinoa were the only ones who weren't particularly large.

"When are you planning to go on a mission?"

 I remembered that mission in Hermione's parallel world. It's too... easy for me, but it's just right for Hermione. 

"I don't know... I don't have many Chat Points, so I'd better go soon... I saw so many interesting talents and magic books in the shop."

Hermione squeezed her fists impatiently. 

"I want to buy books by the founders of Hogwarts, maybe some ingredients for potions, and books on this field. I've almost completed the entire Hogwarts lesson."

Hermione informed us with visible satisfaction. 

"Bookworm-virgin."

Shinoa said it without wanting to offend, and she immediately hid behind Rias and me after those words. 

"Slut." 

Hermione said it without emotion, and Erina elegantly nodded to her as if supporting those words.

After the training, the girls took a shower, but no one still wanted to refuse the pool. 

A jacuzzi in the pool only added to the enthusiasm of the girls.

Winter tried to hide her desire behind her "cold" appearance, but she still lost her face a few times because she was so excited.

After going to the store and buying swimsuits, we headed to the pool together, where Alice was already waiting for us. 

"Here we are, all together!" 

Alice smiled in a light jacket that hugged her figure. 

After everyone introduced themselves, we went to the pool. 

"It's not that big, really."

Rias said, but they couldn't tell by her appearance that she was dissatisfied with something.

"Ah, but Administrator-kun has no problem with that... hehe."

Shinoa smirked with desire, unable to keep quiet. 

"Who is she talking about?" 

Alice asked.

She was already sitting on a few sun chairs, and it was clear she had gotten there earlier than anyone else.

"Don't mind her." 

Hermione said, tucking a lock of her hair behind her ear. 

They had already started undressing for swimming, and Rias was the first to do it... immediately attracting a lot of attention...

"Oh, so free..." 

Rias smiled and raised her arms. 

"You're such a cow..."

Shinoa muttered quietly. 

"Don't be envious."

Rias smiled back at her. 

"I must say, this pool looks decent."

Winter commented as she removed her clothes. She chose a one-piece swimsuit, with her belly covered with white and blue fabric. 

"But all this attention..." 

There was still some dissatisfaction in her voice. 

"Winter, you're attractive, and you will always attract attention. It would be strange if it didn't happen."

I said... also already removing my top attracted no fewer female glances. 

"Oh, Erina, your friend is quite fit."

Alice looked at me with interest and then turned to Erina... who was still shy about taking off her jacket and exposing herself. 

"All the girls here are in swimsuits, and no one is shy... or are you worse than them?"

"Haha, I was just lost in thought."

Erina answered and took off her jacket while looking at me frequently.

They both had similar figures and stunning ones that were worth admiring. 

"You all have such huge breasts... What about you, Hermione?"

Shinoa glanced at Hermione who was in a modest swimsuit. 

"S-Stop talking about such things in public!" 

After a while, Erina and Alice moved a little aside from the group. 

"So... do you know about advances in the pool?" 

Alice asked Erina. 

Erina was now holding onto an inflatable ring and eagerly awaited the answer with a mischievous gleam in her eyes. 

"No."

Erina shook her head. 

"I can stand up for myself anyway."

She said it with arrogance.

There were also bodyguards of the two "aristocrats" who kept away the most daring guys with their appearance. 

One of them is Ryo. 

"Oh."

Alice smiled for a moment. 

"What about... romance? Does our already grown-up Erina fallen in love? Or maybe you love someone right now... someone specific?"

Alice deliberately looked in the direction of the others who were swimming around Anthony. 

"I have aspirations, a goal that I want to achieve, and I'm not interested in that."

Erina replied. 

"It seems like someone's not telling the whole truth..."

Alice smirked.
