After deciding on the order of the matches in the lottery, the pair of Kuro and Sieg first competed against me and Alice. The rules are the same as the basic volleyball, and you can return it to your opponent's coat within 3 touches.

This time, the goal is only to play, so the game is five points ahead. Regardless of the last score for the service, a total of four players will play in turn in a shorter format.

With regard to the games I participate in, the other three will adjust to my physical abilities. It's not as tough as disqualification if you override it a little, and each adjustment is OK to a certain extent... well, the general rules are like this.

"Well, Happy Man... even though you can match your physical abilities to Happy Man, reflex nerves and motor vision are not so good, so physically Happy Man has a little handicap."

"I see... do you have a good plan?

Before the game, Alice and I had a light tactical meeting... It was quite uncomfortable when everyone wore a toy in their swimsuit... well, Alice, if I thought about it, I'd lose.

"Yes, of course. Rather, this difference in reflex nerves and motor vision does not necessarily work in Kuro's favor. Especially this time, because they all match the physical abilities of Happy Man, there may be a pattern that says," Even though you can react, you can't follow your body. "

Hmm.

"Also, since each of you adjusts your physical abilities, the team playing against Happy Man will arrive with a remarkable ball..." Does Happy Man reach this ball? Some time lags may arise due to the question, and happiness is not necessarily disadvantageous in this rule. "

That's right, it's really reliable to be able to do this kind of situation analysis easily. I think it's a trivial problem to wear serious clothes and ruin things...

"... well, I told you it was difficult to make a sound, but there is a gap. Leave it to me to pierce the gap, Happy Man, please do your best to deal with the ball that comes."

"Hmm... that means..."

"Yeah, I enjoyed beach volleyball without worrying about winning or losing."

"I see, it's easy to understand."

Well, it's like a mini-game that doesn't have any prizes, and it's better to have fun than to think about it.

That's how we ended the meeting, and we headed for the coat that Shiro had prepared for us.

Next to the Shalovanal, who was watching each of them perform preparatory exercises, Alice spoke with a voice that could only be heard by the nearby Shalovanal with a natural movement.

"... that's not me... or that's totally him..."

"... I apologize honestly for everything this time. I'm sorry."

"No, well, when I look at the situation, it's that way... what kind of interaction would that be?

In response to Alice's question, Sharovanal began to talk about Eden, who was moving around... a costume that was paired with a happy person... after a moment of exhaustion.

"Apparently, I've been watching this, and he wants to participate in a situation where there are no Happy Man pairs. I thought I would refuse, but she has often accepted my request so far... I had many opportunities to be patient, so I decided it would be bad to accumulate more dissatisfaction."

Ah ~ Well, I was really dissatisfied with the new building party.

"Yes, and this request is' I want to join Beach Volleyball as a Happy Man's Pair '... well, it was a mild request to her..."

"Wouldn't it be better for you to join me here with all the members who can stop running wild than to refuse and ask me a futile request again at a later date... I see..."

After hearing how Eden participated in the beach volleyball, Alice nodded convincingly and sent a gaze to Sharovanal to ask questions that were still unresolved.

With that gaze alone, Sharovanal realized what Alice wanted to hear, and continued explaining after sighing gently without changing her expression.

"... many of you will atrophy if you participate as you normally would, and I made it a condition to dress up and pretend to be Alice so you don't know who you are."

"Is that why you showed up in that outfit..."

"It's just strange that she drank the clam so badly. I thought you were going to complain, but I agreed in a few replies. Is she okay with that?

"Well, if the person is convinced... that's fine."

Alice gazed at the coat with a strange face beside the strangely curled Shalovanal.
