White frills based on black fabric and a choker reminiscent of a maid.

Although I thought it was a pretty good design, I had some doubts about the costumes that I had never seen in the original.

‘Was there a swimsuit like this in the original? .’

From what I remember, I think it probably wasn’t there.

I played 『Luminor Academy』 alone 25 times and tried on all kinds of swimsuits, so my memory was probably correct.

To say that the underwear was simply waterproofed, the fabric itself had a slightly different texture, and it is likely that there were no underwear with this design in the first place.

‘But anyway, I like it the most out of all the things I’ve worn so far…’ .’

Actually, out of all the other swimsuits, there isn’t one that I’m so obsessed with.

I had the impression that some of the swimsuits weren’t that bad, but that was exactly what I felt. It’s not a swimsuit that feels like it fits perfectly like Natalie or Agnes.

… It seems like there were quite a few costumes that could be used for purposes other than swimming in the sea.

‘It doesn’t feel bad to wear… . It goes well with the headdress… .’

-Squeak.

“Is this the last one, Miss Lizzie?”

“Yes, Miss Lilith! As expected, this swimsuit suits you well~! Isn’t this swimsuit really a ‘made-like’ swimsuit, Miss Lilith?”

“… Yes, I think so too.”

“Okay then, Miss Lilith. Of all the swimsuits she has tried on so far, which one did Ms. Lilith like best?”

As Lizzy said those words, she glanced at the swimsuit I was wearing, so just from that alone, I was able to roughly guess the order in which she changed my clothes.

I probably knew from the beginning that this swimsuit would be my favorite. Lizzie would know about the two and a half years I spent as Ethan’s exclusive maid.

They knew that I was serious about my exclusive maid work, to the point of modifying my uniform by adding frills, so I must have intentionally placed the most maid-like swimsuit at the back. To make it a natural situation for me to pick this.

“This swimsuit I’m wearing right now… I like it the most.”

“Of course~! I knew Miss Lilith would say that~!”

“… … .”

“Actually, what you were planning to give to Miss Lilith as a gift from the beginning was this swimsuit, right? Personally, I think this one suits Lilith’s image best.”

“… yes. For some reason, I thought that would be the case.”

“I deliberately dyed black underwear that matched Lilith’s size black, added frills to it, and treated it with a waterproofing potion~!”

“… So, did Miss Lizzy make this swimsuit herself?”

“Heung~. Yes? This swimsuit was made with special care for Miss Lilith, so you can be grateful to the fullest, right?”

… So, somehow, it was a swimsuit with a design that I felt like I was seeing for the first time.

Even though Lizzy had good feelings for me, I never expected that she would even make me a swimsuit like this. Even if there is a record of saving lives in danger.

‘Lizzie is treating me so sincerely, so I think it would be good if we met more often from now on.’

It is human nature to not easily let go of someone who treats you well. No matter how much of a burden that partner may be to me.

And to be honest, I feel burdened by Lizzy’s feelings towards me because she has rarely caused me any harm.

He never did anything to break up the relationship between me and Ethan out of jealousy, or plotted a scheme, and even listened to me carefully when I took the witch test in the Witch’s Forest, and even saved me dried mandragora roots… .

“In that spirit, I will give you the swimsuit that Lilith is wearing right now as a gift for you! Huh.”

“… Thank you, Miss Lizzie.”

Even now, this easy-to-understand favor is being given as if it were completely natural.

If something goes, something has to come, so it may be vague to call it a return, but I only raised Lizzy’s priority by half a level in my mind.

“Thank you, Miss Lizzie. I’ll wear it well.”

“I’m happy that Miss Lilith is happy.”

It’s not like we’re friends, but it doesn’t feel like we’re close acquaintances.

I also slightly toned down the use of extreme honorifics that I had been using out of politeness until now.

“Then, would you like me to pack that swimsuit for you? Or would you rather just wear it as is?”

“Oh, no matter what, there’s no way I can just wear a swimsuit!”

“Yes~! Then, I’ll repackage it for you, so could you take it off and hand it to me?”

With those words, a light blue-haired lady approached me, extending her hand as if it were natural.

For some reason, I felt a sense of danger from that touch, so I hurriedly ran into the locker room to avoid Lizzy.

“Now, wait a minute… ! Get in the locker room! I’m going to go into the locker room and take my clothes off, so don’t come close… !”

“Ah, why are you so shy, Miss Lilith~. It’s the same girls, so it doesn’t matter if we see them naked, right~?”

“Well, that doesn’t mean you can show it at any time, right?!”

“In the first place, isn’t Miss Lilith showing off too much even though she has seen me naked before~?”

“Well, that was unavoidable because of the witch test! Okay, that’s enough, just leave… !!”

No, corrected.

… After all, no matter how you think about it, Lizzy is a dangerous woman, so hold off on getting closer to her any more than necessary for the time being.

“Now, Miss Lilith.”

Lizzy smiles brightly as she hands over a small box that fits in the palm of her hand.

Because of what happened a little while ago, that strange smile made me feel a little uneasy, so I was bound to have some doubts about the gift I received with good intentions.

“… You didn’t do anything strange, right?”

“What a strange thing to do?”

“For example, you changed your swimsuit into something strange… .”

“It can’t be like that~. Did I tell you that this swimsuit was made with Lilith in mind in the first place? As long as Miss Lilith wears the swimsuit I made, I’m satisfied with that, right?”

“… I understand.”

Well, in the first place, it’s strange to ask for something for free. Of course, this time, Lizzy, who caused the misunderstanding, was problematic in many ways.

While thinking about that and thinking about leaving the store with the swimsuit I got from her, one of the swimsuits Lizzy had put on me suddenly popped into my head.

… Although I have no intention of wearing it during an oceanography class, I still feel like it might not be a bad idea to wear for other purposes.

“… Me, Miss Lizzy.”

“Yes, Miss Lilith.”

“… There is one thing I like among the swimsuits I tried on earlier. Can I buy that separately? Because I will definitely pay.”

After hearing what I said, Lizzy once again nodded with a bright expression on her face.

He seemed to like my offer to buy a swimsuit with his own special touches.

“Oh, of course! What kind of swimsuit is it? Bikini series? Or one-piece series? Either that or… .”

“Mae, are you selling the one you wore first too…? ?”

“Yes?”

“Li, this is the swimsuit that Miss Lizzy first put on me… . The area is a little small, and Lee and Lizzy said they made it as a joke, that… .”

“Ah… … .”

I am struggling to speak with my burning face down.

Lizzy’s eyes seemed strangely sinister when she heard my answer, but it was still necessary for me.

I definitely don’t plan on wearing that sexy swimsuit outside, but I just thought that if I bought it for some reason, I could use it later when I hang out with Ethan.

‘A swimsuit with such a ridiculous design isn’t the kind of thing you can get anywhere else.’

That’s why I mustered up the courage to think that I had to use this opportunity to buy it.

If you’re going to use it for something other than swimming, it’s right to buy clothes that fit that purpose.

“Are you talking about that bikini swimsuit that narrowly covers only the minimum area?”

“Mo, your voice is loud, Miss Lizzy! Everyone else hears it!”

“Why, what’s the story? Can’t you listen?”

“It’s nothing special, Miss Agnes. Actually, Miss Lilith said she wanted to buy the micro bikini swimsuit she wore earlier… .”

“… … What?”

“Aaaah! Don’t say it! Why are you saying that to Miss Agnes?!”

As I was holding a grudge against Lizzy, who was so nonchalantly talking about my order details, Agnes’s gaze quietly moved towards me as if something was absurd.

“Are you buying that too? They say you won’t wear it even if you die?”

“Bah, I’m not buying it to wear in the sea! Well, just in case… .”

“I thought it suited you, Lady Lilith! Lady Lilith can wear that swimsuit, so you don’t have to worry about that!”

“Oh, no… ! It’s not like I’m going to wear it to my oceanography class… ! Oh, anyway, it has nothing to do with those two, so you don’t have to worry… !”

… There was a bit of a fuss over the swimsuit I was buying, but anyway, as a result, I bought it.

I showed it to them, but I actually felt a little sorry that I didn’t show Ethan the swimsuit.
