After everyone has joined up safely, it's time to split up into pairs of pre-determined pairs and start swimming. And I participate in it while moving freely from one pair to another, but I've already decided on the first pair I should head for.
　That's right, the place for Shiro-san and Lilia-san's pair. If we don't get to know this pair well enough to have a conversation with them, we can't go to the other pairs.
　It's a good thing that you're not the only one who's been in the same boat for a while.

　While thinking about that, I move my gaze while facing Shiro-san and Lilia-san, and lightly look at the other pairs as well.
　Kuro and Zeke are preparing tools such as boats and beach balls that they brought from somewhere, and they seem to be having some kind of fun talking with each other. Both Black and Zeke are sociable, and I really don't think there's anything wrong with this pair at all.
　Isis-san and Fate-san were walking on the beach instead of heading to the sea. Looking at their expressions from a distance, they seemed a little tense with each other, but they didn't look awkward, so this one seemed fine too.
　Alice and Anima........what are they doing?　Anima is bowing to Alice, and Alice is smiling something bitter. Hmmm, I can only imagine, but is it like Anima is asking Alice to teach her something?　I'm a bit curious, so after Shiro-san and Lilia-san, let's go to that pair.

　.........Well, the problem Shiro-san and Lilia-san are.......well, yeah. As expected, but the term "frog staring at a snake" kind of came to mind.
　While they were facing each other, Shiro-san was expressionless and Lilia-san was sweating like a waterfall.

''Shiro-san!　Miss Lilia!　I'll have to come over here first.
Mr. Kite?

　When I called out to her while trying to make the atmosphere as cheerful as possible, Lilia-san had a relieved expression on her face, as if she had met her savior.
　It was right to come first, after all. I'm going to talk to them first, so that they can talk to each other as much as possible.

So, have you two decided what you're going to do for fun?
'No, not yet. I have more work to do before that.
...to be done first, right?　Creation God, what the hell is that...

　Hearing my question, Shiloh-san answered in his usual inflectionless voice, but I didn't understand the meaning of his words and Lilia-san and I both tilted our heads at the same time.
　Then, Shiro-san turns his gaze from my direction to Lilia-san and slowly tells me, "The purpose of this trip is to get to know each other.

''The purpose of this time is to deepen our friendship. If that's the case, we should first close a certain amount of mental distance between each other. I don't think taking action with an open distance will lead to good results.
Nah, I see...

　 As expected of Shiro-san, who has grown up mentally to the point where even Alice would approve of him, he's a bit different.
　It seems that Shiro-san is also properly aware of the fact that Lilia-san is in a state of fullness, and is thinking of resolving that first.
　This could really be too much of a worry. If White-san is showing a willingness to come to you like this, then I feel like we can deepen our friendship without my coming.

It's a good idea to start with what to call them. Lilia........................I'll call you rude today. Therefore, I will allow you to call me by my nickname, 'White'.
"...and...

　A moment later, it seemed like the sound disappeared from the surroundings. Um, this is the thing........White-san is walking up to me. He's really trying to deepen his friendship with Lilia-san as firmly as this.
　However, sadly, the things we think are good in the world don't always lead to good results.
　It's a strange story, really. Even though Shiro-san is definitely stepping up to me, for some reason when I look at her from the side, it looks like 'Lilia-san's first ordeal has come to her'..............or rather, Lilia-san's face is even worse than it was before.


"You may call me White,
And yet, well, that would be too rude...
"You may call me White,
Wow. I'm having a very hard time...
"You may call me White,
...Yes. Mr. White.

　Lilia's eyes are dead ah!　He was completely pushed out of the way.
　Ugh, yes. I'll take back my previous statement. I'm still glad I came here in the first place. This is going to take a lot longer than I thought.
