Act 2 - Summer Break

15-2 

"We'll start again with the one who made the miss, right?" (Rintaro)

"Right. No problem." (Kanon)

"Alright." (Rintaro)

I thought calmly as I tossed the ball between my hands.

If Rei spikes the ball, it will be hard to receive it. Even if I can, the ball will probably go out of the ring. That would be my loss.

Then there is only one strategy.

I'll play a lowball to Rei. That's it.

I'll float the ball and lightly toss it with my fingertips.

The toss, which will surely have been criticized in the original competition, goes straight down to Rei.

"Ugh......." (Rei)

As expected, Rei is unable to spike the ball.

Taking a receiving stance, she bounces the ball high in the air with her arms. It is hard to tell from the height, but it is definitely inside the ring.

Kanon, who is closest to the ball, chased after it.

"Aiming at Rintaro...... it isn't bad at all! It's basic to aim at the one who is on the brink of losing, isn't it?" (Kanon)

"Huuh!?" (Rintaro)

She says something outrageous and while running, she bounces the ball with one arm.

The ball flies through the air again and this time falls to where Mia is standing.

"Well, I think I'll wait and see until my remaining lives are running out." (Mia)

The ball, which Mia floats with a light touch, goes back precisely to Kanon, although it is randomly tossed.

Not good, this is just a spike opportunity for that lass.

"Whoa! Thanks for the good toss!" (Kanon)

And that would mean a big pinch for me.

If Rei can spike it that well, it's not hard to imagine that the other two can do something close.

It is a mistake to think, even for a moment, that I can win.

Her body is bent over, and a powerful spike is about to be shot just as I have imagined it'll be.

She is aiming right at me, no doubt.

"This is the end! Rintaro!" (Kanon)

"Ah. Speaking of which, I'm pretty sure Kanon's breast size is――――." (Mia)

"What are you talking abouuuuut! You stupid Miaaaaaa!" (Kanon)

Kanon, receiving an unexpected provocation, dexterously changes her target in mid-air.

The aim, of course, is toward Mia.

The ball is bounced with a loud sound and heads toward Mia with a force that can have blown her face off.

But――――

"As I thought, Kanon is easy to handle." (Mia)

Mia evades the ball by lightly tilting her head to the side.

The ball's momentum naturally does not weaken, and it slams greatly into the sand outside the ring.

The ball is dropped outside the ring, in other words, it is Kanon's miss.

"You, you set me up." (Kanon)

"Don't talk nonsense to me. I just suddenly remembered Kanon's three sizes, okay?" (Mia)

"Don't you dare say that, okay!? Absolutely don't, okay!?" (Kanon)

"Hmm. Is that a cue? Then I'll meet your expectations, from the top, seven――――" (Mia)

"I'm not giving you a cueeeeee! Stop it! Save me!" (Kanon)

Why is she begging for her life?

For now, I leave Kanon as she suffers holding her head in her hands, and I look at Mia.

"You were standing by the line on the premise that you'd provoke her...... you're good." (Rintaro)

"Fufu. The game is boring if it's over too fast. You should do your best to reduce the number of my remaining lives." (Mia)

"That's a good point. I'll make you cry in the end." (Rintaro)

Anyway, thank goodness Kanon is vulnerable to provocation.

Rei and Mia still have two remaining lives, and I can't see――――any way to reduce theirs with just my own strength.

"Rintaro! I can cooperate with you here, tho!? or better yet, we should do something about them! We can't let them get away with this!" (Kanon)

"I was just about to make the same suggestion. Please, Kanon." (Rintaro)

"Likewise, you better give me a good toss!" (Kanon)

If you can't do it alone, then cooperate with others.

We both only have one life left. If we fight too much with each other, we might end up in a standoff.

First of all, we must get Rei and Mia to have the same remaining lives as us. By doing so, the game is back on track, in a sense.

"Is there a coop-play option?" (Rintaro)

"If I say there is, then there is!" (Kanon)

With so much outcry, the ball leaves Kanon's hands.

It's headed for me, her alliance partner.

It's at the perfect height and speed for an easy toss. This way, I can return it to a good position.

"Do it! Kanon!" (Rintaro)

I throw up a toss based on Mia's earlier move.

For the first timer, it flies to a good position.

"Great!"

Kicking the sand and leaping up, Kanon bends her body back greatly as she did before.

The person to whom she is turned is Mia.

Apparently, the fact that she almost had her own breast size revealed is still lingering on her mind.

But she doesn't spike it right away.

"――――Sorry, Rintaro." (Kanon)

As she says this, Kanon twists her body in the air.

"Anything is fine as long as I don't end up being the one being punished!" (Kanon)

Then, with her flexed arms, she launches a spike "at me".

The powerful shot from an impossible posture, created by her amazing leaping ability and flexible body, will be impossible to receive at first sight.

But if you're prepared, it's a different story.

"As pre-dic-ted, Kanon." (Rintaro)

I had been tossing the ball on the assumption that I would be betrayed from the start. I had no reason to cooperate with her in the first place, since it would be more efficient to aim at me, who would lose with just one more miss.

No matter how powerful her spike is, it is still inferior to a spike from the correct posture. As long as I know she will aim for me, even I should be able to return it.

"Huuuh!? What is that!?" (Kanon)

"Traitor, you shall――――DIE!" (Rintaro)

I receive the spike with the core of my arm. If you play it straight, it should land at Kanon's feet.

But it doesn't work that way.

"Ugh......." (Rintaro)

The force of the spike should be lower than that of the previous one, but my body can't kill the impact.

The ball is bounced in a strange direction, and with a strong rotation, it flies in an unexpected direction.

The direction is, coincidentally, exactly between Rei and Mia.

""I'll――――."" (Rei, Mia)

It was so sudden that both of them shouted at the same time.

As a result, both of them stop, and the ball, which is almost to the ground, falls to the sand without being blocked by anyone.

"...... This means?" (Rintaro)

"Ah...... it fell between, so both of them lost each one life! Good job, Rintaro! That's what coop-play is all about!" (Kanon)

"You betrayed me." (Rintaro)

"Wh-what are you talking about?" (Rintaro)

When I glare at her, she turns away and starts whistling badly.

Well, let's just forgive her. As a result, I was able to reduce their remaining lives, the two most difficult ones to deal with.

"Hmmm, you got us. We couldn't decide which way to hit at that timing." (Mia)

"So frustrating ......." (Rei)

From this point on, no matter who misses, the loser is decided, and the game is over.

Rei and Kanon won't be able to carelessly hit a strong spike considering the possibility of making a mistake.

My policy remains the same.

I will defend thoroughly and wait for the three of them to make misses.

I am not going to get subjected to this penalty game.......!
