Chapter 13

Son-con – Vol . 13 Ch . 13

The Captain was right; the sun finally shone onto the cabin at lunchtime . A warm breeze accompanied the arrival of sunlight, making it seem as if we had arrived at warm rich soil in the south . Lucia was relieved . Nier and I didn’t go anywhere in the day . We kept Lucia company and played chess . Nier was somewhat eager to go outside; however, when I said we’d play one more game for every loss, she resolved herself to compete until the next dawn .

The temperature warmed up after the sun came out . Life returned to Lucia after lunch, and she aggressively challenged Nier to a fight to redeem herself for the humiliation she suffered earlier in the morning . I didn’t give them time to fight, though . The plan was to get in the water for a swim after lunch .

The Captain chose a location where the waves and wind were calm to stop the ship, allowing me to enter the water . I could tell Lucia and Nier looked forward to playing in the water . Lucia could swim . The swimming finesse she displayed in the bathroom in the elven Imperial Palace was quite decent . As for Nier, I never saw her swim before . Regardless, if she was trained by the military, then she should be a great swimmer . However, I presumed the two of them didn’t have any experience swimming in the ocean, which was why they were eager to experience it .

The Captain walked up to my side and reported, “Your Majesty, everything is ready . The water temperature is fine, and there are no waves . The small boat has also been prepared . ”

I gave the captain a nod then placed my cup of tea down . Lucia jumped to her feet with excitement . She was obviously very lively after the weather warmed up during lunch and after lunch . Perhaps she was making up for her feeble self in the morning . Nier placed her cup of tea down and smiled: “Let us go for a swim, then, Your Majesty . I am looking forward to it . Do we need to prepare food? I shall go and prepare it now . ”

“We don’t need to prepare food . Just have the maids prepare tea and some snacks . Give us a bottle of wine after we come back up, and that’ll do . ”

Lucia had already ran off outside . I said to the captain, “I also need a fishing rod and towels . It’ll be fine if you just put them in the small boat . ”

“They have all been prepared . However, I hope that you do not stray too far away from the ship . This is not a safe zone; therefore, I hope you can do your best to stay close to the ship . That would also make it convenient for us to provide support should anything come up . I would also like to request your permission for the guard ships to stay by your side for your safety’s sake . ”

“Keep some distance . ”

I was reluctant to let others see Nier and Lucia in their swimwear, as the swimwear was unlike our modern day swimwear . To be honest, the new swimwear model was basically designed for others to ogle at . I could accept Nier and Lucia donning them in front of me, but I’d want to kill the entire crew if the group gawked at them .

The Captain nodded: “Yes, Your Majesty . ”

I removed my cloak and placed it on the table before going to the deck . A small boat was prepared on one side of the ship . There were towels placed in the boat already . My wives’ pure-white skin radiated underneath the sunlight . The sailors who came over all felt awkward, because they wanted to check them out, yet didn’t dare to . Everybody froze stiff as if they were zombies .

I returned to the room to change . I wore on shorts, and then went to sit on the small boat . They lowered the small boat . I noticed the guard ships were ready on both sides and up ahead . In essence, we were basically in the middle of their formation . The surroundings appeared to be calm . The sea water was unexpectedly a clear light blue . I, consequently, could see gravel and what resembled corals below . Having said that, they were definitely carnivores, because I saw them gobble a tiny fish .

Admittedly, the place was perfect for swimming . The Captain sure knew how to find the right place .

I suddenly wondered if there’d be a huge octopus that was common in transmigration stories…

I started to think, “If Nier and Lucia encountered one in the water, then… then… then…”

“Your Majesty… What is…”

Noticing the state of my crotch, Nier’s eyes flourished with excitement . I lowered my head with my face all red and refused to speak . She smiled mischievously . She checked to ascertain nobody was watching us . Then, she suddenly grabbed my crotch… With a mischievous smile, she said, “What’s wrong, Dear? Are you turned on seeing me in my swimwear? I can wear this swimwear tonight and we can…”

“Hmph!” snorted Lucia, glaring at Nier . “I knew it . Humans are animals that enjoy that sort of thing . Doing something holy for the sake of feeling good… Also, it’s obvious you didn’t make His Majesty erect . It’s definitely me . But… Your Majesty… If we do it, I will be in a lot of pain…”

“… Can we please not argue about this?”

The boat landed onto the water . From above, the Captain shouted, “We shall stop here, then, Your Majesty . You must be watchful not to go too far away from us!!”

“All right,” I responded in a loud voice, and then began to slowly move the boat .

We put some distance between us and the ship . Lucia and Nier were eager to try getting in the water . They gazed down into the clear blue sea . They entered the water one after another, and then both surfaced at simultaneously . They each grabbed an arm of mine and pulled me into the water .

In an instant, I found myself drowning in the water . Droplets of water flew into the air as we splashed into the water, reflecting the sunlight . I was submerged in the warm and gentle water . I shut my eyes to focus on the sensation of being in water . I could still seemingly see the blue ripples and incredibly warm sun despite having my eyes shut . I, additionally, saw a gentle pair of blood red eyes . Those blood red eyes were so gentle and blissful . I wasn’t sure if the water ripples were what made them seem as though they were expressing love…

“Ling Yue…” I called out in my mind .

“Puah!”

I surfaced and rubbed the water on my face . Life was restored to my heavy lungs again . The sound of the water current by my ears was replaced with our shouting, the gentle breeze and the sound of the water ripples . Nier and Lucia stuck to me with smiles . I smiled back: “You two sure are energetic . I was planning to fish first . ”

“Don’t fish first . You want to fish when I’m by your side?”

Nier wrapped my arm in hers and Lucia immediately took my other arm as she resentfully glared at Nier . Lucia pulled me over with all her might and seriously said, “His Majesty has to swim with me first, of course . Didn’t we do this in the bathroom at Duargana? You couldn’t move . Luckily, you can move now, so of course we have to play in the water . ”

“What?! You two…”

It was Nier’s turn to be surprised . Truthfully, Nier and I didn’t bathe together, because Mommy Elizabeth was the only person who could bathe with me . Despite being the Royal Princess, Nier didn’t have the right to use the biological royal family members’ bathrooms . She was only allowed to bathe with me if I went to bathe with her, or Mommy Elizabeth gave her permission to use the royal family’s bathroom .

“So let’s go . Let’s go . ”

“Wow…”

I never thought Lucia swam the same way as a fish did . She grabbed me and swiftly swam away . I know she could swim well in the bathroom but didn’t expect her to swim extraordinarily in the ocean…
