The Azure Sea is not a warrior with ripped clothes.

With two awkward laughs, Miyazawa Yu pulled Kotegawa Nanaka, who had transformed into a steam engine, away from Chisa's amused gaze.

The latter watched them go upstairs before going into the bathroom and closing the door, but...

"Huh? Why is the toilet seat broken?! What did they do?!"

Chapter 28 Where is Lord Mizuki-mao?

"Beep beep beep beep beep!"

At nine o'clock the next morning, Kitahara Iori groggily shifted a couple of times on the mattress and reached out to turn off the alarm clock.

"Ugh... isn't today Saturday? Seriously, I'd better sleep a little longer. This week feels like so many things have happened, I'm so tired..."

"Yo! Iori, you're awake. Good morning. Would you like some pancakes?"

"Oh~ It's Yu... Good morning, you..."

Although she had already slept twice at school, the warm bed had dulled Iori's senses.

Startled by Miyazawa Yu's voice, he was instantly wide awake and could only scratch his head as he got up and took the pancake that the other person handed him.

"Alright! One last person is fine, arigatoyu. Now, Kotobuki and I will take care of the new member!"

"Then we'll continue to bring in new people."

"Okay! Let's do it this way!"

"Wait a minute! Isn't there a wrong number of people? Why are you having a club meeting in my room?!"

"There's nothing we can do. Senior Shou said this was originally their activity room. We can't just change the location and add sausages because of you, can we?"

Sitting on Iori's bed, Miyazawa Yu spread his hands and explained to him the reason why this group of familiar burly men had gathered.

Moreover, Iori can rest assured that he won't be overwhelmed by BL. According to his careful observation, Iori is the only one in the entire club who is interested in BL.

Speaking of which, should he stay a little further away from this jerk with such different interests? It looks dangerous to have someone watching his back door!

"Seriously, at least wake me up..."

"Didn't I set an alarm for you? By the way, everyone's already awake. You're so lazy!"

After Iori got dressed, Miyazawa Yu walked into the living room and greeted the others, saying, "Good morning, did you enjoy the breakfast I left for you?"

"Mmm! It's delicious! Thank you so much!"

With a grin, Toshio Kotegawa gave a thumbs-up, clearly very satisfied with the tenant he had found.

Not only does she actively help with housework, but when she's not drinking, she even gets up early to make breakfast. She's practically the perfect tenant you'd only dream of!

"Ah~ Good morning, Iori."

On the other side, Nana Kotegawa was too shy to look Miyazawa Yu in the eye. After all, the farce and promises from last night were still fresh in her mind, and she felt a little embarrassed when she thought about them now.

I didn't expect Iori to actually wear clothes today! What a surprise! She deserves some encouragement!

Thinking this, she nodded in approval to Kitahara Iori in a coaxing tone, "You dressed nicely today! That's great! That's great!"

"This praise is really hard to accept."

Covering his face with his hands and sighing, something that even early Homo sapiens would do, was singled out for praise.

Does Nana Hana think that her intelligence level is the same as that of a gorilla?

"Manager, we're planning to give our new employees a little exercise, could you please lend us some equipment?"

"Yes! Freshman orientation, we have to do it every year."

How many new people are there this year?

"So far..."

Slightly embarrassed, Ryujiro held up four fingers to Nanaka: "If you include Chisa, there are only four!"

"Oh dear, Kohei, didn't you go home quite early yesterday? When did you arrive?"

Seeing the other three newcomers standing in a row without her noticing, Miyazawa Yu quietly joined the group, otherwise she would feel extremely out of place.

"Of course it's because my senior sent me an emergency mobilization order!"

With a click, Kohei Imamura pulled out his phone, wiped the sweat from his brow, and proudly explained, "Wherever Master Mizuki is, I'll be there too!"

"Huh? Mizuki's diving here too? How come I didn't know that~"

"Why did even Yu believe it! This is obviously a lie to Kohei!"

"what!"

Startled, Kohei Imamura rushed to Shinji Tokita, who had sent him the message, and asked incredulously, "Really!?"

"Well, I lied to you."

"..."

Like a salted fish that has lost all hope, Kohei Imamura couldn't bear the blow and took two steps back before finally kneeling down, tears streaming down his face. He forced himself to keep from crying out loud.

"Oh dear, you're crying so hard... Tokita-senpai, that's too much!"

"I'm sorry! I didn't expect this either."

"But Mizuki did mention liking diving, so she's probably from Izu, right? Kohei should try asking at other diving supply stores; that should be helpful!"

"Hey, Yu, it's been like this since just now. Popular celebrities are busy, right? How could they possibly be here diving..."

Kitahara Iori gently patted Miyazawa Yu's shoulder twice, then put on a pitying expression.

Although I know that Yu is also a fan of anime, it seems that he is quite ill, as he actually confused the voice actor with the real person.

How could ordinary college students like them, who are nobody in the know, possibly know each other...?

"Yes, I still have the photos she sent me last time. Judging from the location, she should be around our store."

Yu took out his phone, opened LINE, and opened Miyazawa Yu's chat page with Mizuki Yu. The last chat was on a photo of him diving.

"What?! This...this is the real person! Where did you get this LINE account? Please share it with me, Master Yu!"

"Sigh~ That won't do, Kohei's fanaticism will disrupt other people's daily lives."

Although Kohei's tearful behavior was pitiful, Miyazawa Yu resolutely refused his impolite request for the sake of his friend.

"Woo..."

"Uh, if you want to see the chat history..."

"I want to see!"

"She's so easy to please. Maybe I can ask her out next time..."

Watching Kohei carefully take away Miyazawa Yu's phone, Kotegawa Toshio rested his chin on his hand and explained, "Actually, Tokita wasn't lying, but Kayano is very busy these days, so he can't come over for the time being."

"Huh? First, Yu casually pulled out a celebrity's chat history, could it be the store manager?!"

Turning around in disbelief, Miyazawa Yu was already far-fetched enough that she could pull out chat logs, but Kitahara Iori simply didn't believe that this small diving equipment store could be hiding such a powerful force!

"It really is! Iori."

"Because of its good reputation, voice actors and celebrities often come here!"

"I don't believe it! Wouldn't that mean I'm the only outsider here?"

He waved his hand decisively, not wanting to be the only one who knew nothing!

"What are you throwing a tantrum about...? The other person's wetsuit is still hanging in the designated locker, that's evidence enough..."

Seeing his expression, Chisa Kotegawa silently pointed to the storage room at the back of the shop.

Celebrities are not short of money, so they will buy their equipment separately and entrust it to a store for safekeeping and maintenance. Shouldn't that be considered evidence?

"Oh! Ho ho ho, I see, please allow me to taste it!"

I never imagined that I could not only simulate chatting with Lord Mao, but also witness firsthand the diving suit that had been in physical contact with my idol!

Kohei Imamura pretends to be profound, but in reality, his perverted nature is unbearable!

"Wow, impressive, they actually made a bizarre statement without hesitation."

"I never expected to approach this from the perspective of taste; this is truly extraordinary."

"This year's newcomers are all talented."

"No, no, no... I think he's just a complete pervert!"

Miyazawa Yu narrowed his eyes. He was now hesitant about whether to warn Sister Mao, since there was a pervert secretly eyeing her at the diving shop she frequented!

"Yosh! I'm suddenly full of energy! Teach me how to scuba dive!"

"Leave it to me! That's why we're gathered here today!"

"Um, should I come with you guys too?"

At this moment, Chisa, the only newcomer with diving experience, raised her hand to ask a question.

"Hmm! Chisa already has diving experience, so she doesn't need to, right?"

"Then I won't participate!"

Feeling uninterested in going diving with her perverted childhood friend, Chisa immediately announced her withdrawal from the diving activity, seeing that she could get away to do her own thing.

"and many more!"

"What? Dad?"

"This is a rare opportunity, Chisa, you should participate."

"Eh……"

She showed a look of utter disgust, but since her father said so too, there was nothing she could do...

"Can I just observe? To be honest, I'm a little afraid of water and can't swim, so..."

"Ah! Is that what it is? It's okay, actually many divers can't swim."

Raising his eyebrows indifferently, Jujiro was very dissatisfied with Iori's attitude, wanting to give up without even trying!

"..."

"Huh? It's going to dive into the sea!"

Is it really okay if I can't swim?

"While it would be best to know a little, it's not a big problem even if you don't!"

Resting his chin on his hand, Shinji Tokita gave an ambiguous answer, then turned his gaze to Yu Miyazawa and asked, "Yu, can you swim?"

"Because of my muscles, although I can swim, I might be a little worse than a professional athlete!"

Patting his arm, Miyazawa Yu sighed helplessly. Although muscles can provide enough strength and endurance, they also increase resistance.

Therefore, whether it's sprinting or swimming, he belongs to the type who is not proficient in either.

"Hey! You, Yu, are you showing off?"

"Not at all~ It must be Iori being too sensitive—"

"You bastard! Once I learn to swim, I'll definitely beat you!"

Although the newlyweds started bickering again after a few words, Kitahara Iori's mood visibly returned to a high level!

A strange look flashed in Kotegawa Chisa's eyes. Could it be that Miyazawa Yu was actually trying to stir up the atmosphere and boost Iori's confidence through competition?

……

Watching the two pinching each other's cheeks, Chisa felt for the first time that this year's freshmen were not bad at all!

Chapter 29: A Date Cannot Be Interrupted!

"In short, why do we say it's okay to go into the sea even if you can't swim?"

"That's because diving and swimming are completely different things. This is an oxygen tank used for diving. Try lifting it."

Upon arriving in Izu and stepping onto the beach for the second time, Miyazawa Yu felt as if he had been in another world.

I chose a coastal university so that I could easily meet beautiful girls in swimsuits with no makeup and a clear view of their figures, but after joining the Pab Club, I haven't even been in the water yet. What a waste of life!

"Oh...it's so heavy!"

Kohei Imamura, standing nearby, tried to feel the weight of the oxygen cylinder; it felt about the same as a large rock.

Wouldn't you sink to the bottom if you carried something like this into the sea?
