Chapter 448 - Summer Vacation!
Tuesday
"Alright everyone, have a fun summer vacation!"
Yata… Kumano-sensei announced, and a sense of liberation spread throughout the classroom.
Today was an easy day: receiving test results and report cards, then homeroom, and we were done. Of course, only if you didn't have any failing grades.
"Phew, finally summer vacation!"
Natto stood up and stretched widely. I understood the feeling.
"Does the track and field club have practice today?"
"They're explaining the training camp, then anyone who wants can do voluntary practice, they said."
Which means he'll probably do voluntary practice.
I also felt like getting some exercise. We didn't have P.E. during the test period.
"Alright, see you on the next school day!"
"Yeah."
Natto ran off, barely hearing my reply.
And… he should have said something to Iincho before leaving.
Then, Iincho and Mion came over, looking like, "Aren't you going to say something?"
"He's so restless…"
"Iincho, do you have club activities today too?"
"Yes."
The archery club, like the track and field club, had a training camp explanation and voluntary practice today.
Our club probably also has a training camp explanation, so maybe it's the same everywhere.
"Alright, see you on a school day then."
"Mm."
The two waved goodbye to each other.
Mion and Iincho have really become good friends, I thought.
…I wonder if Iincho is still told to contact Mion if I do anything weird.

"Finally, summer vacation!"
"Hey there."
"Hello."
Club President Bell sat in her gaming chair with a refreshed look, eagerly putting on her VR HMD.
I guess the final exams went without a hitch?
"No problems with the tests. I can go to the training camp with a clear conscience."
Club President Bell said with a triumphant grin.
Was I making that face too, I wonder…
"Is the training camp explanation after Yata-sensei arrives?"
"Yes. Although, it's not like a sports club with a detailed schedule."
As we were talking, Yata-sensei appeared.
"Everyone's here, I see~."
Yata-sensei, sitting down, handed out the training camp schedule and airplane tickets. I received two tickets, including Miki's.
"The tickets are reserved, so please make your payments, everyone~."
"Alright, I'll pay for myself and Seth-chan."
"Thanks."
As previously discussed, my and Mion's payments were settled and confirmed by me.
The tickets themselves were to be given from me to Miki.
"Sensei. The schedule details are…"
"Yes~. The Cybernetics Club's training camp depends on the weather that day~."
The schedule details were almost entirely free time.
Only the first day's meeting time, flight time, check-in time, and the last day's check-out time and flight time were written.
"Seriously…"
"For transport from school to the airport~, Mion-san has offered to provide a car~, so please don't be late~."
"Oh, Tsubaki-san is driving us."
"Yes."
She'll also pick us up from the airport on the way back and drive everyone home. That's incredibly helpful.
The reason for so much free time is apparently that even with a strict schedule, it often ends up being affected by the weather.
If the weather is good, we'll go sightseeing or to the beach; if it's bad, we'll stay indoors and play games… which would, of course, be IRO.
"Oh, right. Is it okay to do a collaboration with Club President Bell soon?"
About the collaboration I'd been thinking about earlier.
How about Mion streaming from Club President Bell's 'Witch's Manor'?
"For that~, it would be better to confirm thoroughly with the management~. Mion-san has become an official goddess~, so it might be wise to be cautious about engagements with anyone other than Shou-kun~."
"Besides, if she appears on my channel, other virtual idols might flood us with requests to appear too, you know?"
""Ah…""
Mion and I understood that we were a set, but Club President Bell probably didn't think there would be a connection to Majo Bell.
"I'm sorry, Club President Bell…"
"There's no need to worry. Besides, if it were me visiting, like last time, permission might be granted, right?"
"That's true…"
She had visited our 'Mion and Shou's Relaxed Showtime' before, so that might be an acceptable possibility.
If she can't invite Mion to her own channel, there wouldn't be much benefit either.
"That's right~. Still, we have to confirm it~."
""Okay.""
I wish I had realized and asked about the collaboration earlier.
I'll have Tsubaki-san contact them, and we'll decide based on their reply.
If it's okay to do, I'd like to do it during summer vacation.
"By the way, what are you two doing for lunch today?"
"Um, if club activities continue until noon, I was thinking of buying something at the school store. Is it already over for today?"
"Since we've discussed the training camp~, it's fine for today to be over~. You can always meet everyone in the Virtual Club Room~."
That's what she said, but what should I do?
"It's still before noon, so why don't we play IRO for a bit?"
"Unfortunately, it seems to still be under maintenance."
""Ah!""
Club President Bell showed us the official page.
Oh right, the Demon Kingdom Update was supposed to be applied this morning after maintenance.
"Well then~, why don't we see Mion-san's Jade Goddess Outfit~? You've already received it, haven't you~?"
"I want to see that too!"
"Y-yes!"
*
Since maintenance was apparently continuing until noon, we came to the studio.
"Speaking of which, Seth-chan doesn't log in much in the mornings, does she? Is it so she doesn't play too much?"
"Ah—, she's a really bad sleeper, and in the mornings, she usually comes with me on my errands."
"So, Bell-san is playing games from the morning, huh~."
Club President Bell looked away after that jab.
That aside,
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
Mion appeared in the Jade Goddess Outfit.
This outfit required a special operation to wear, which apparently I'm not allowed to show to anyone else.
"Beautiful!"
"That's lovely~. It really suits you~."
Both Club President Bell and Yata-sensei were looking at Mion, now the Jade Goddess, from various angles, but,
"As expected, no matter what, the revealing parts are still somehow hidden, aren't they?"
"It's very well made~."
Can't they say such things when I'm not around!
