195 After Days: Yes, Let'S Go To Sea! (4)
"Yes, then close your eyes. - Hold your breath. - Put your face on. Yes, good, good -"
"... Are you kidding me?
"Eh? I'm not teasing you. Eh?
I take Uffi's hand and give him instructions so that Uffi can get used to putting his face on the sea level.
Yuffi looked a little reluctant, but he also seemed to be getting used to opening his eyes within a few repetitions.
"Because all of a sudden when you get in the water, you freak out and you panic. If I don't get a leg, I'll be damned. Are you all right?"
"For once..."
"Well, let's go offshore some more"
I take Yuffi's hand and go offshore. We were standing where our breasts came out, but I had my feet already off the bottom.
When I pull Uffi to lead the way, Uffi also swims out unsettled and drawn. Its speed is very slow, and Yufi's body also appears to be shrinking a little.
"... anise"
"Hmm?"
"Don't let go of my hand."
That's what Uffi said as he put his face on the water several times wearing waves, holding my hand tight. The words were more powerless than usual and an anxious sounding voice.
When I heard Yufi's voice like that, I almost laughed unexpectedly. I kind of miss Yufi being so surprised, too.
"... what are you laughing at"
"I miss Yufi the first time," he said.
"I knew you were making fun of me, right?
"I'm not making fun of you. Okay? Look, let's speed it up a little bit."
"Hih, don't pull it!
"Then let go of my hand?
"If I let you go... I'll make you look terrible later"
That voice was low and the colour of the joke was gone so I shut my mouth. They come and go in the shallow waters until Yufi gets used to swimming slowly as they are.
By then, Uffi had also been able to swim even if she let go of her hand. That said, it's an amazing way to swim like a dog.
"... in the water is still unsettling"
"Really? But I was in my stomach when I was a baby, even us."
"… reasoning."
"hehe."

"Anis......!
"Whoa, it's dangerous!
Yufi caught eyes and stared, reaching out to me, so I kick the water in momentum and distance myself. Huh, Beginner won't catch you swimming!
"Sister Wang!"
"Whoa, Charne!
Running around at a distance that didn't go with Uffi, I saw Charne coming this way in a breaststroke. He's totally like me, kind of smiling.
"The ocean is amazing! It's blue and glittering in the water!
"Charne liked the ocean?
"Yes! Very!
Charne was smiling with great pleasure. When Charne is distracted, Yuffi catches me grabbing my shoulder.
And rocked by the waves as they supported me. That gaze was directed at Charne, and he seemed to be just a little frowned upon.
"... amazing, are you used to the ocean already?
"Yes! Your Majesty! Swimming is fun!
"... Really?"
With an indescribable expression, Uffi nodded. Because all this has its own taste and aptitude, too.
"Ha, ha, ha! Don't you have good muscles inside, Gark!
"Damn, I knew it was fast! Why does it make a difference when you swim the same way!?"
"No, don't hang out......! Your opponent is royalty......!
"You're struggling too..."
"... you're a big man, in many ways"
Christine and Gakun are swimming together a little further away, but naturally Christine swims faster. Rather, Gakun's adaptability to swim to the point where he tries to stake out on his first day is amazing.
I see Navre with his head in his arms when he sees such a gag and Falgana with such a tapping of Navre's shoulder and a bitter smile beside him. Priscilla floats beside Falgana like that, but you're not used to this one. Falgana supports you all the time.
"Ha-ha-ha! Chris! You're still sweet! Long time no see! Let me entertain you too!
"Nooo!? Father!?"
In doing so, Emperor Lukeheim swimmed ambitiously through the sea in a stunning butterfly, quickly leaving Christine.
Christine went after Emperor Lukeheim as she followed it, and Gakun was left behind. Gakun is swimming back to the beach when he realizes he can't catch up with the boulders.
"… you seem to be enjoying yourself"
"Right."
I muttered in agreement even though Uffi shrugged, but when I pointed my gaze towards Uffi, I saw Raini and Ilia in the direction ahead.
Like I was doing to Uffi, it's like Raini is swimming with Ilia's hand, but Ilia was just completely solidified and drawn to Raini.
"Raini... hands, never let go..."
"Dear Ilia, you don't have to be so desperate... I won't let you go, will I? Look, let's move our legs, shall we?
…………
"... Dear Ilia?
"... Raini, my leg, my leg is going to hang..."
"Dear Ilia!?"
Ilia tries to stick to Raini because of the tension or because her legs are about to hang. He seemed to struggle to swim because of Ilia, although Raini was rushing to support it.
"... I'm going to help you."
"... go ahead"
Me and Uffi looked at each other and laughed bitterly.
"Pfft... Feel no..."
"... it can't be, Anis"
Although Uffi pointed me out, I was voicing an extended voice as I weakened.
After going up from the sea, we were put straight through to the bathroom. It was the best temperature bath for my body, which played well in the sea and was just a little cold.
"It was fun, the sea!
"Charne was a master swimmer for a long time."
Sharne laughs contentedly and returns the gavel as Priscilla was impressed.
Next to it I could see Ilia sinking into the water with dead eyes to her mouth and Raini rubbing such Ilia's shoulders.... Let's not touch Ilia now.
"If you enjoyed it, we'd be delighted."
"Christine."
Christine drops by and calls us as she soaks up in the hot tub. She sits next to me at a distance for one, gazing at me and laughing happily.
"Anisphere lost her temper, but I didn't know she was a master swimmer."
"I had a chance to swim a little."
"In the kingdom of Palettia? It doesn't seem like much of a place to swim."
"Did you look it up?
"Via Brother Fall. I'm studying the Kingdom of Palettia."
"My brother? Not my uncle?
"My age doesn't change that much. Speaking of uncles, Brother Fall looks delicate."
That's what Christine said in a bitter laugh. Surely you can afford the imagination of Falgana looking subtle even when they call you uncle.
"How many Christines are there?
"Eighteen. I'm sure she's the same age as Her Majesty Queen Uphilia."
"Right."
Oh, or is it the same age as Uffi? I thought you were a little more upstairs, but I'm surprised.
It's been another year since I reconnected with the Aylene Empire. There were cases where we could row from the development to completion of a magic city, and there were cases of the collapse of the Kingdom of Cambus. True, that was a rushed year......
"How was your day, Anisphere"
"How'd it go? It was fun, huh?
"Right. I hope so..."
That's all she said, then Christine smiled so she could be challenged before she said it.
"But there seemed to be a shoulder watermark that wasn't what I thought?
"... Well, it's common for me to be different than I imagined. Culture is different."
"It's that perspective that I'd like to hear. What the hell did you see in Anisphere from that perspective?"
Uffi poked my arm in the hot water. I smiled inside as I gave back my snort.
"Hehe, I wonder if that wants to sit back and talk slowly. It's about the future."
I won't give you an idea for free, but I'll tell Kristin. That's what brings up a lot of ideas that are going to boost your seawater bath.
This is not the Kingdom of Palettia, but the Aylene Empire. Besides, I was once eager to get my eyes on me. Don't talk too far-fetched, because Yuffi stabbed me in the nail, too. It won't be that easy!
"Ho? I mean, you seem to have a stomach proposal. I'll report it to your father later. We should take the time to talk."
"I don't mind that in itself. If it's going to lead to mutual understanding and development of each other's countries, I'd be happy to."
"Right. Well, here's my personal question."
"Yeah?"
"The engraving on its back. What the hell is that like?
It seemed like Christine was showing an interest in my, now that I'm keeping my back, engraved marks that I wouldn't see. Its eyes narrowed just a little and I feel like the signs are pointy.
"Medal?"
"Well, is that a medal? That's brave. Is that why my investigation works... it freaks me out watching it. I don't hate you."
... Do you have any idea? No, but I wanted to swim. Guess they'll guess when the magic prop technology becomes known to the Empire.
"For once, it's a state secret.... Don't tell me, okay?
"I'm not going to pry deep, I'm not for that kind of ventriloquism. But you can tell me you care about what you care about, right?
"I wonder..."
In a way, though, I also suspect you're an entangler if you're trying to hide what's sincere.
"If countries are different, positions are mutual. Still, I only want to connect with the Kingdom of Palettia through interaction."
"I guess we need time to walk over to each other so we can not doubt that word"
"Must be. Sincerely, I will deal with you."
That's what I laugh at. Christine, though invincible, was a familiar smile.
