"Lureya, your face is so red..."
In the store, after picking out swimming suits and changing back into regular clothes, the two looked over and found Lureya’s face flushed red like a steamed crab.
"Well, the changing room was too hot..."
Feeling the lingering warmth of Shami’s underwear, Lureya rubbed her thighs, dazed as she joined the other two.
Before Shami arrived, the three had nearly finished their selections.
Lureya added the swimsuit in her hand to the shopping list, and the three girls went to check out with their swimwear.
At this moment, the trio noticed a strange section.
This was supposed to be a women’s swimwear store, but there was a dedicated section labeled "Men’s Swimwear and Underwear Area."
"Having this section in a women’s lingerie and swimwear store is nothing short of a betrayal to women."
"You know, it actually makes sense. Most men accompany women when shopping. If they can buy a pair of underwear as a return gift while waiting, men would be much happier."
Lina persuaded by Saili’s reasonable explanation.
Lureya suddenly thought of Shami hiding in the changing room, took a peek, and looked at the two girls beside her.
"Perhaps we can pick out a pair of swim trunks and underwear for Shami. He probably hasn’t bought them yet..."
Lina and Saili paused a moment, then agreed unanimously.
In the changing room, Shami slightly pulled back the curtain, peeking at the three.
He had overheard the girls’ conversation and was slightly teary-eyed.
Oh, they’ve grown up.
The men’s underwear and swim trunks section had only one display case, and the three quickly went through all the items.
"How about this one?"
Lina picked out a pair of dark brown underwear.
Lureya examined it closely, eyebrows slightly furrowed, and shook her head.
The elf maiden, slightly dissatisfied, whispered a comment.
"No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem suitable. It would probably be quite tight when worn."
The magical girl looked puzzled.
Why do you seem so familiar with this, elf!
Lina also looked over, confused.
"Lureya seems to know some incredible information?"
Lureya became nervous.
"I-I’m just speculating. Since it’s the boss, it couldn’t be a small soldier, right..."
The three went quiet.
"I feel the same way."
Saili and Lina agreed.
"I heard that even the Demon King’s down there is fierce, like a weapon, capable of defeating enemies."
The magical girl had only read about it in books and lacked objective understanding of the Demon King’s true weapon.
"Ac-actually, it’s true..."
The white-haired girl responded bashfully.
"N-not really... just thought these things are as expected..."
Embarrassed, Lina shook her head.
Honestly, she did feel something while hugging Shami that night, but the hug was too brief and almost forgotten. However, being a Demon Envoy, she certainly had to speak well of the Demon King.
"What are you three perverts talking about anyway! Get back to the main topic! The store clerk’s staring at you differently now!"
In the changing room, Shami’s face turned dark.
The elf maiden’s sharp ears seemed to catch Shami’s complaint, and she quickly pulled the two back to their selection process.
In the changing room, with 4 minutes left until the personal Teleportation Gate cooled down, Shami decided to stay put and observed the three girls’ every move comfortably.
"How about this one?"
Soon, the white-haired girl picked up another brown pair of underwear.
"Why is there a clear hole in the crotch area that lets you see right through! Is it open-crotch underwear?"
The elf maiden questioned.
"No, no, this is emergency-type underwear. After wearing this, if you urgently need to pee at night, you can skip some steps and avoid wetting yourself."
"There’s no such type of underwear! Wearing it is like not wearing anything at all! It’s just two steps in total! Don’t apply girls’ logic to me!"
Shami protested from the changing room.
"Ahem. But it’s obvious these are for male dragons or something."
Mentioning peeing, the magical girl instinctively coughed twice, then regained composure, propping her chin with a calm look and presenting vast knowledge.
Damn, is this white-haired girl insinuating something?!
Has that matter been found out?!
In any case, let’s change the topic!
"But those underpants over there have two holes, front and back. Those should be for male dragons."
Lureya pointed to the side.
The magical girl went silent for a while, then coughed again.
"No, those are for disabled octopuses."
"Admit that there are things you don’t know, Saili! There are still six-hole underpants over there."
"...Those are also for octopuses."
"She’s out of explanations and is just repeating things now!"
The three girls gave up on the underwear in their hands, but soon the white-haired girl took a liking to another style, holding it up and asking the two beside her.
"How about this one?"
"No, Lina, what kind of monster do you think I am? That clearly looks like a pair of black stockings! Why do you always pick styles I can’t comprehend!"
"Let’s pick something more normal."
Finally, the three chose a pair of loose-fitting black swim trunks and underwear for Shami.
