Chapter 204: Vill-V is looking for [archive]...

"The sea! Yay!"

"Vill-V, keep your voice down."

"What's wrong? What's wrong with me being a little happier?! I've been tortured by you, Nozomi, for a long time. I finally get to relax. What's wrong with me being a little happier?"

Vill-V was yelling at Nozomi with dissatisfaction on her face, but her wording was somewhat problematic, causing people around her to look at Nozomi strangely.

"That's for your own good... Don't you think that if your health gets better, you'll be more motivated to do research? You'll be able to develop more magic?"

Nozomi grabbed Vill-V's face expressionlessly, gently pulled it, and reminded her... As for the gazes of other people around? He didn't care about the gazes of those guys who looked at people with yellow glasses.

"It seems so..."

Vill-V tilted her head and said that it seemed to be true. After all, after her physical fitness improved, she could perform many magic tricks that required difficult movements, and some magic techniques could also be optimized... and the reason why she could do all this was because of her constantly improving physical fitness.

As she exercised for longer periods of time, she developed a habit of exercising, and she no longer felt tired. She could even stretch out her body, which had become stiff from staying indoors for long periods of time doing research... Even the fatigue from exercising allowed her to have a good sleep.

It seems like... she should indeed thank Nozomi?

No, no, no, Vill-V will not admit this!

She suffered a lot in the beginning, she couldn't let Nozomi turn the page so easily!

She wanted revenge! Serious revenge!

"What? You want to take revenge on me?"

Nozomi's voice came faintly.

"eh?..."

Vill-V looked like "How did you know?!"

"your thoughts are written all over your face."

Nozomi rubbed Vill-V's head, making her distinctly colored two-tone bouffant hair messy.

"Don't rub it... don't rub it! It's troublesome to take care of my hair!"

"It's not you who did it anyway, so in the end it's either your mom or me who will help you... You're a girl, so you have to learn how to dress yourself, okay? Don't ask me to help you with your makeup in the future."

"Makeup? What kind of makeup? Don't I look good without makeup?"

Vill-V puffed out her chest, showing Nozomi her fully developed body. Combined with her previous exercises, Vill-V's little belly that was caused by long-term home study was gone. Her whole body was curvy and convex, exuding a unique charm.

"It looks good."

Nozomi responded casually.

"Um... am I angry?"

"You must be angry."

Nozomi said expressionlessly.

"I won't comfort you."

"...I'll bite you to death!"

"Hey hey... don't jump up so suddenly! What if you fall?"

"It's okay if I fall. It's all your fault anyway!"

Vill-V, who was riding on Nozomi's shoulders, pulled Nozomi's hair and tugged at his ears to express her dissatisfaction.

"Just wait and see, I will definitely take revenge on you severely later!"

"What? Are you going to pull all my hair out or something?"

"I'm going to put some sand in your eyes so that you can't open them, and then I'm going to steal your lunch!"

"It's okay, I won't eat."

"Then I'll have two!"

"If you gain weight, I'll give you extra training, okay?"

"…Are you a devil?!"

Vill-V wailed, and at the same time, she used a little force with her legs to clamp Nozomi's shoulders, and at the same time rubbed Nozomi's face hard with her hands.

"I want compensation!"

"You made it yourself, why do you want compensation... at most I can make you a snack."

"I want egg tarts!"

"No choice, you eat whatever I cook, and if you want to order, you can make it yourself."

Nozomi sneered.

"I want to see what kind of snacks a girl who can burn a pan just by frying vegetables can make."

"...Just wait and see! I will definitely cook better than you in the future!"

"Oh, yes, yes, that's for the future. Now you have to eat whatever I cook. If you don't like it, don't eat it."

"...I'm really going to bite you, ok?"

"You're going to bite?! If you have the guts, you... hey, are you a puppy?! Are you really going to bite?"

"Hehe~"

Vill-V, who finally won a game, hummed happily twice, and then happily directed Nozomi to take her to the locker room... When we came to the beach, how could we not hang out on the beach?!

But... behind the two of them, Vill-V's parents were smiling, with a mixture of relief and helplessness in their expressions.

"What a good relationship..."

Vill-V's mother said so.

"Yes..."

Vill-V's father then said.

"It seems like we are being ignored..."

"That's fine too. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings... Let them play by themselves."

"As for the rest of the time... it belongs to us?"

"Um."

The couple looked at each other and finally smiled helplessly, then held hands silently and walked forward.

...…

"How is it? Nozomi, does it look good?"

After changing into her swimsuit, Vill-V made a big jump and slid directly in front of Nozomi. She struck a pose that she thought was very charming, blinked her eye, and gave Nozomi a wink.

"Hmm, it looks good..."

Nozomi, who had already changed his clothes and prepared a parasol, looked at the terminal in his hand and responded casually.

He had been waiting here for a long time. He knew without thinking that after changing her clothes, Vill-V must have stayed in the locker room hesitating whether to come out because of shyness or some other reason. In the end, she changed into a suitable "mask" and finally ran out and came to him.

"…Really, you didn't even raise your head!"

"Please, do you know why your mom agreed to let you choose this set..."

Nozomi raised his head and looked at the swimsuit she was wearing... Well, it was indeed that one.

Then Nozomi turned his attention back to the terminal.

"Uh... you didn't pick it, did you?"

"What do you think? Should I give you a screenshot of the chat history between uncle and aunt?"

Nozomi rolled his eyes at Vill-V.

"...Hateful!"

Vill-V gritted her teeth and fell limply on the beach blanket... 'Damn it, Mom and Dad, you guys ruined me! The surprise is gone!'

'We can't have these parents anymore!' Vill-V gnashed her teeth.

Unfortunately, Vill-V's parents have gone to their own world now, and Vill-V has no place to vent her resentment. In the end, she can only lie down, and then slowly move to Nozomi's side, and stealthily look at Nozomi's terminal.

"Okay, you're still chatting with other girls!"

"How do you know she's a girl?"

"…Is she really a woman?"

"What else?"

Nozomi didn't mind, and just let Vill-V move into his arms, resting her head on his chest... It would be best if she didn't get too close to him, after all, Vill-V was a grown girl, and her figure was amazing...

"Eden... what an interesting name."

"People use their real names online, so they call themselves Eden."

"How did you two know each other?"

"Didn't I have a music account before? She was considered my fan, and we got along pretty well after chatting for a while, so we kept in touch... and she majored in music, so we could occasionally chat."

Nozomi responded casually.

"Besides, she's a wealthy woman. Many of my previous rewards came from her..."

"No way, Nozomi, you're being kept... Ouch!"

"Speak nonsense and I'll hit you on the head"

"You already hit it!"

"Because you already said so."

"Hateful!"

Vill-V stood up, stood in front of Nozomi, put her hands on her hips, and said angrily.

"That's too much, Nozomi! I'm so disappointed in you! I'm right in front of you, but you're still chatting with other girls!"

"Yes, yes, and now I can't see your face because your chest is blocking it."

"...I'll kick you to death!"

"Ha, little girl, you still want to target me? You are too naive!"

"Ha...hahaha...tickling the sole of my foot is a foul!"

"Why, you're not convinced?"

"I don't accept it! Ha...hahahahaha! No! I give in!!!"

…

Alas... the relationship between these two people is really subtle...

While Nozomi and Vill-V were playing by themselves, the people around them glanced at them, then looked away with a little helplessness but also a little understanding...

It would be best if the two of them weren't so open about it. It would hurt the singles around them a bit...

Never mind. There are people like this everywhere on the beach. It doesn't matter… Don't mind it. Don't mind it.

After the two of them had enough fun, they played in the water for a while and then met up with Vill-V's parents to have lunch together. Then they welcomed the afternoon...

"Wow... there are so many people..."

Vill-V looked at the beach that was almost full of people, and her eyes twitched a little...

"I was wondering why my parents ran away. It seems like they knew there would be a lot of people in the afternoon..."

"That's right, why else do you think we have to come in the morning?"

Nozomi shrugged, indicating that he was used to it.

"Let's go and play something else."

He casually threw a thin coat to Vill-V so that she could cover her swimsuit a little, and then looked at the terminal again.

"It seems there is an ocean sightseeing program here... Let's go to the pier and take a look."

"Oh? How did you know?"

"Recommended by Eden. Her family seemed to have been here for vacation before and had tried many activities, so she recommended them to us."

"Ugh... Damn it, it's her again!"

Vill-V puffed up her face somewhat unhappily.

"Why, are you jealous?"

"Yeah, why not?"

"Okay, okay, you're much more advantage than Eden anyway. At least you're right next to me and I can touch you."

"...Hehe~"

"Why are you so happy?"

Nozomi tapped Vill-V's forehead, bringing her thoughts back to reality.

"Hurry up, hurry up... The [Ocean Sightseeing Project] in Eden's recommendation allows the boat to stop far away, let's go and take a look."

"Okay! lets Go!"

Vill-V immediately took a step forward and pulled Nozomi forward.

"You know the way and you're just running? Seriously...slow down! I won't bother taking care of you if you fall."

"I don't need you to take care of me! And I won't fall! Let's go, let's go..."

"sigh..."

Nozomi held his forehead helplessly.

…

Arriving at the pier...

"No... Vill-V, what did you tell the staff?"

Looking at the sightseeing boat with only Nozomi, Vill-V, and the driver on board, Nozomi rolled his eyes and asked expressionlessly.

"What's the matter? Are you surprised?"

Vill-V put her hands on her hips and proudly stood straight in front of Nozomi.

"I just chartered this boat!"

"...hm?"

"Hehe~ Don't underestimate me! The person in front of you is the future world's number one magician, a super engineering genius - Vill-V! It's reasonable for me to make a few designs, apply for a few patents, and make some money, right?"

"In other words~"

Vill-V patted her chest, raised her chin, and spoke in an exceptionally proud tone.

"That's right! Now I'm also a wealthy woman. I can do what other people can do!"

"Come on, Nozomi! Let me support you... Ouch!"

Before Vill-V could finish her words, Nozomi immediately used the [Headbanging Technique] to interrupt her chanting.

"Hmm? Say it again? Say it again?"

"Hmph! bleh!..."

Vill-V stuck out her tongue in annoyance, made a face at Nozomi, and then walked into the cabin by herself, admiring the underwater scenery through the special sightseeing window.

Nozomi followed her and enjoyed the beautiful scenery unique to the seabed with her.

"...Nozomi, am I really angry"

Vill-V said faintly.

"Uh-huh?"

"I want to make amends."

"Tell me about it."

"Make me something to eat when you get back..."

"um."

"I want to order some songs later."

"No instruments, but a cappella is fine."

"Then don't train me when we get back to school, okay?"

"That won't do."

Nozomi's tone was firm.

"Keep a healthy lifestyle, damn it! A good body is the foundation of everything!"

"...Kill me, let me die!"

Vill-V screamed.

"Even if you die, you have to get up and practice!"

There was no mercy in Nozomi's tone.

"Damn it... I want to order some music! I want to drain your throat dry! And use up all your energy! And then I'll eat all the snacks you made!"

Vill-V shouted in a somewhat self-deprecating manner.

"If you can do that."

Nozomi shrugged indifferently.

"Tell me, what do you want to hear? It's a good opportunity to make up for the time you spent practicing your voice today."

"Whatever. Your singing won't be bad anyway. Um...what new songs do you have?"

"If you don't mind, I have some new ideas... Let's go upstairs."

Nozomi leaned against the fence, while Vill-V swung her legs, waiting for his singing with great anticipation... Although it was strange, she unexpectedly felt relaxed when listening to Nozomi's singing, so she liked Nozomi's singing very much.

Watching Nozomi adjusting the terminal, it seemed that he had started recording, and then he closed his eyes habitually, adjusted his breath and voice, and then... the sea breeze blew, and the blue waves rippled.

he could hear the sound of the breeze, the gentle sound of the waves, the sound of some ships moving forward, and the occasional calls of seabirds.

However, his singing that followed overshadowed all of this, and all attention was drawn to his voice.

Hmm~

His singing voice, carried by the sea breeze and the water, slowly drifted away into the distance.

And then... after a brief moment of stunned silence, the driver let out a cry of surprise and quickly stopped the boat.

"Hmm——"

In the distance, a group of killer whales approached rapidly, and in almost no time they were beside the boat, circling around the sightseeing boat.

"Ah... we meet again?"

Nozomi stopped singing and looked at the killer whales surrounding him, especially one of them who seemed to be a girl. Nozomi's gaze stayed on it for a long time.

Then he stretched out his hand as if sensing something, and the killer whale quickly swam out of the water and gently touched Nozomi's palm, leaving some coolness and seawater on his hand.

"...Meet again? Nozomi, have you encountered this group of killer whales before?"

Vill-V came closer with some curiosity and stretched out her hand to try to touch the killer whale...and the killer whale seemed to have noticed Vill-V's intention, swam out of the water, and gently touched the palm of her hand.

"That's about it. I think it should be this."

Nozomi nodded, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

"And...I seem to remember its name?"

"Huh? You even named them?"

"It's just one of them... I seem to know its name."

Nozomi shrugged and pointed to Vill-V, the killer whale that had just touched the palms of their hands.

"[Skadi]... should be this name."

"Hmm...hmm...it seems pretty good!"

Vill-V nodded, not thinking there was anything wrong with it, but...

"Speaking of Nozomi, has it been watching us all the time?"

"No need to use questions, it's just looking at us."

"Hmm——"

"Okay, okay... I don't mean to blame you..."

"You can even understand their speech! Nozomi, you are not a humanoid killer whale... Ouch!"

"Vill-V, you've been talking nonsense a lot today, haven't you?"

"Ahem... I'm sorry, I was wrong... I'll do it again next time!"

"...Hehe, I'll deal with you after I get back."

Nozomi stared at Vill-V for a long while, then he smiled somewhat subtly and spoke softly.

"Uh... can we reconcile?"

Vill-V subconsciously covered her buttocks and spoke timidly.

"It's too late."

Xi Wang said expressionlessly.

...

In the evening, after saying goodbye to the orca group, Vill-V and Nozomi also returned to the shore. However, because of Nozomi's "threat," Vill-V began to drag Nozomi to continue playing on the beach, trying to delay the arrival of the "punishment."

In fact, Nozomi was just joking and had no real intention of "punishing" Vill-V.

But it was quite amusing to see Vill-V nervously dragging him out to play in order to delay time...

Crash—

At night, the waves gently hit the beach. By this time, there were fewer people on the beach, as the seaside is somewhat dangerous at night.

In addition, Nozomi and Vill-V were now far away from the crowd, and almost no one came to this marginal beach at night.

However, these are not a big deal for Nozomi and Vill-V, and... the two of them also had unexpected gains here.

"Oh... Nozomi, look what I found. Two beautiful stones!"

At the junction of the beach and the reef, Vill-V found two strange [stones].

These two pieces of [stone] were black overall but appeared somewhat translucent inside, with a brown luster, and the texture felt a bit strange to the touch, making it impossible to tell what kind of stone they were.

"What kind of [stone] is this... it's quite beautiful... and it seems that there are only these two pieces."

"...No, these two were originally one stone, but they probably hit something in the middle of the process, so they broke into two pieces."

"Maybe the wave hit something when it came in? Or was it some other accident?"

"That's the only way..."

"Hehe~"

For some reason, Vill-V was in a very happy mood after getting these two strange [stones].

"Come here, Nozomi, this one is for you!"

Vill-V kept a [stone] that she liked more and then handed the other one to Nozomi.

"You should keep it well, okay? This is my gift to you!"

"Okay, okay, I will keep it well..."

"Damn it, be serious!"

"I'm serious..."

"Ahem... then... can the [punishment] later be waived?"

"Oh, that... I was just joking."

"..."

"Are you serious? Hahaha... I was just joking. You didn't expect that!"

"You... give it back to me! I won't send you off!"

"No, there's no point in taking back something you've given away... Get up!"

Nozomi picked up Vill-V, letting her ride on his shoulders, and then ran towards the crowd.

"Okay, okay, the fun game is over. I've had enough fun and gained a lot. It's time to go back and rest. Otherwise, it will be dangerous when the tide rises in the evening."

"Don't try to get away with it! I... I... just wait! I'll burn a plate of coke and stuff it in your mouth when I get back!!!"

"Vill-V, it's wrong to waste food."

"Who cares about you!!!"
