They arrive at the campground.

Rather than being completely in the forest, it seems to be a fully managed campground with facilities in various places.

The campground was crowded with students and families, perhaps because it was summer vacation.

After unloading the luggage from the camper, Seto opened the driver’s window, looked at Amamiya and the others, and said,

“I’m going to park the car, so you go ahead and tell them.”

“Okay~. Good work.”

Amane saluted, and then separated from Seto for the time being.

After watching the camper headed for the parking lot, they grabbed their luggage and started moving to the place where they would be staying today.

“I haven’t been camping since middle school. ……”

Amamiya talks to Karina, who is standing next to him, looking hot and wiping sweat off his face with a handkerchief.

But Karina replies with a slightly clouded look on her face.

“I didn’t attend the camp when I was in junior high school. I had, you know, a cold. ……”

“Oh, that’s right. ……”

It can’t be helped if you took a day off due to a cold.

Thinking that it must be a summer cold, Amamiya regrets asking the wrong question.

“Did you enjoy camp in middle school, Takaaki-kun?”

“W-well, well, we went kayaking on …… lake and had a barbecue.”

Amamiya says with a fake smile on his face.

In fact, camping in junior high school was not such a pleasant memory for Amamiya.

Amamiya was in his loner heyday at the time, and he recalls spending lonely times walking alone in the woods and observing his classmates enjoying themselves by taking pictures, except for the assigned group activities.

“Maybe I’m a little jealous …….”

Karina says so, but Amamiya was more envious of those who had friends to hike and barbecue with.

In the past, Amamiya might have thought so, but not now.

He has friends.

“Hey, Takaaki kun, you’re crying!”

That fact made Amamiya’s eyes burn.

Karina was startled by Amamiya’s sudden burst of tears and panicked, not knowing what to do.

“I’m sorry, I startled you. Don’t worry, it’s just sweat.”

He wiped his tears with his sleeve before the seniors walking in front of him and his sister noticed.

But Karina’s truth is not lost and she places a soft, thin hand on his head.

“Okay, okay – don’t cry.”

She pats his head as if she is comforting a child, and Amamiya is embarrassed.

If they had just become friends, Amamiya would have run away, but now that he is no longer afraid of being touched, he accepts it with open arms.

(I’m probably the happiest person on the planet. ……!?)

The two seniors and one sister walking in front of him grin at the sweet space behind him.

(((They’re flirting)))


When they arrive at the place where they are supposed to stay for two days, Amamiya, Karina and Anna open their big mouths and are astonished.

They expected small accommodations since it was a campground, but they were wrong.

What spread out before them was a luxurious hotel attached to the campground.

“Oh, here it is, here it is!”

Amane and Kenmochi did not seem particularly surprised, and were about to enter the hotel entrance.

“Um, Amane-san, are you sure this is the right place? It seems so out of place… ……?”

Amane looked up at Amamiya’s words and gave him a strange look.

Kenmochi, meanwhile, checked in at the reception desk and received two keys.

“What are you talking about? You can’t play games properly in an encampment or a log cabin, can you? It’s only when we train in a stress-free environment with comfortable internet communication that we gamers can grow, Amami~kun.”

“I see. By the way, how much does it cost for one night?”

“Seto onii chan said it would cost about 50,000 yen for one night~”

“Eh?”

One night, that is to say, two nights would be 100,000 per person.

The total for the six people, Amamiya, Karina, Anna, Amane, Kenmochi, and Seto, is 600,000 yen…
 
Amamiya, having done the math, turns pale and speechless.

“Don’t worry about the money, it’s a necessary expense. Club expenses, club expenses.”

“What, our club expenses are paid that much?!”

When Karina, who also could not hide her surprise, asked a question, Amane pointed out her lips as if to cover it up and raised both hands.

“Well, we’ll take care of that~”

“I knew it, active professional gamers are rich. ……”

Karina’s eyes twinkled as her admiration for Amane and Kenmochi swelled.

 
“No, you come from a wealthy enough family, don’t you?” Amamiya retort inwardly as he gazed at her healthy profile.

 
There are two rooms, one for men and one for women.

The high ceilings were decorated with chandeliers, and the furniture and carpets were decorated in a European style, with TVs on the walls.

“After you drop off your luggage, we’ll meet at the campsite.”

Kenmochi patted the stunned Amamiya on the shoulder.

“A campsite? But our purpose is to improve our game skills, not to train in our rooms?”

“That’s something we can do at night. Amane declared it to be a training camp from hell, but that’s just for appearances; in reality, she probably wants to enjoy the camp as much as she can.”

“Indeed, that’s true.”

Amane’s first priority is to have fun, so Amamiya agrees with Kenmochi because he can’t imagine that Amane would have a rigorous training camp.

After putting his luggage in his room, Amamiya left the room with Kenmochi and headed to the campsite to join the group of girls waiting in the lobby.

“Hyahu!”

Amane, completely hooked into her floatation ring, noisily dives into the river and begins to swim.

Amamiya thought to herself, “Why do you need a floatation device when the river is not that deep?” but watched with a smile.

Amane is wearing a swimsuit, and for some reason, a school swimsuit.

On her chest is written “Amane Shiori.”

“Fufu, so childishly cute.”

Suddenly, Karina stood beside him, and Amamiya’s heart skipped a beat with nervousness.

She was also wearing a bikini.

Her hair was tied up in a knot, and she was wearing a light blue bikini, which suited her image perfectly.

She was also slender and had a model-like figure, and it was hard to take his eyes off of her.

“Y-yeah. I think so, it’s very typical of Amane senpai…”

“Ah, umm, Takaaki-kun. Um…”

Karina puts her hand on her chest and looks down in embarrassment as she speaks in a trembling voice.

“What do you think of my swimsuit ……?”

“Oh, uh, uh,……, that,……, very,…….”

“Very ……?”

Karina looked up at Amamiya with a blushed face and waited for his next words as if in anticipation.

The moment he was about to speak his opinion of her swimsuit with all the courage he could muster—

Suddenly, a rubber ball hit Amamiya on the back of his head.

The impact causes Amamiya to fall forward.

“Ow!”

“Takaaki kun! Are you okay?!”

Karina sits beside the fallen Amamiya and gently rubs the back of his head where the ball hit him.

Fortunately, he did not suffer a concussion, but the ball flew with tremendous force.

Frowning in pain, Amamiya gets up so as not to worry Karina.

“I’m fine, I fell down, but I’m not hurt, so don’t worry.”

“As expected, I’m worried about you. …… Luckily, you didn’t get hurt, but if something were to happen and Takaaki kun got seriously injured, my heart would stop beating.”

Karina, who worried about herself that much, was the very goddess of charity.

As she sat down, her cleavage was visible through her swimsuit, and Amamiya, blushing, averted his gaze.

(In fact, I might even want to thank her. …… No, no, no!)

Shaking off his disgusting annoyance, he slowly stands up and looks around.

Then, there were two girls about the same age rushing toward her from afar.

“Excuse me! The ball hit you! Are you hurt?…..huh?”

 
As the two girls approached them, they rolled their eyes and looked alternately at Amamiya and Karina.

Karina and Amamiya, on the other hand, are also surprised to see a pair of girls looking at them in turn.

One of the two girls, a girly-looking girl, quizzically raises her eyebrows and says in a voice laced with bitterness

“That’s Karina, ……, and that’s shady someone”

The gal-like girl is the same classmate, “Queen of the Classroom,” Takasaki Rinka.

The other conscious-looking blonde girl was Hoshino Shizuka.

Both of these two first-rounders, who they thought they would never meet during the summer vacation, ran into each other at the campsite.

“Oh, you are …… Amamiya-kun, aren’t you? Hey, long time no see~”

In contrast to Takasaki, who looked down at Amamiya, Hoshino waved in a friendly manner.
