Game Developer in the World of Anime

After changing into his swimming trunks and grabbing a towel, Ichin pushed open the door and entered the indoor pool they had reserved for the day.

This place had always offered private reservations. Not only was it highly profitable, but it was also easy to manage. As long as the staff prepared everything requested by the customers beforehand, they basically didn't have to do anything else until it was time to clean up after everyone left.

Most of the people who booked the entire venue were company executives, university student groups, or wealthy young masters and young ladies coming to have fun.

Therefore, although the price wasn't cheap, the service quality was excellent.

The pool area itself was very spacious, roughly the size of two basketball courts. Combined with the activity area around the poolside, it was more than enough for the dozen or so people in their group.

Lounge chairs had already been arranged by the pool, along with small refrigerators stocked with drinks and various swimming rings and floating mattresses.

Since the others hadn't arrived yet, Ichin began doing warm-up exercises by the poolside.

Five minutes later, the girls finally arrived in their swimsuits.

Hazuki and Rin had chosen one-piece swimsuits, while everyone else wore various styles of bikinis. Even little Elf had boldly chosen a bikini, somehow finding the courage to wear one.

Ah, come to think of it, Eriri had too, though Ichin subconsciously ignored that fact.

Two or three years ago, Yukino's figure might have been comparable to Eriri's, but after getting together with Ichin, her body had gradually developed over time.

Although she still wasn't quite as exaggerated as Utaha, she was no longer someone Eriri could compare herself to.

Among the girls of the company's core team, only Ruri Gokou, Narumi Tsubame, and Aoba Suzukaze still had figures similar to Eriri's.

Walking at the very back of the group, Yamada Elf sat down on a lounge chair in a daze, her mind still replaying everything that had happened in the changing room.

Seeing her absent-minded expression, Ichin looked at Utaha and Yukino curiously.

"What happened to her?"

Stretching her body, Utaha smiled.

"It's all because of Hazuki. Even now, she still hasn't toned down that particular hobby of hers."

Hearing that while holding her phone, Hazuki immediately protested.

"Who says I haven't?! I've restrained myself a lot already! I only wanted to take some commemorative photos after little Emily changed into her swimsuit!"

Ichin shook his head helplessly.

"Hazuki, we're all here to have fun. Please restrain yourself a little, and don't scare the child."

Looking down at the phone in her hand, Hazuki reluctantly put it away.

"Fine. I'll listen to you this time."

Afterward, Ichin led everyone through some warm-up exercises. Before entering the water, properly stretching was absolutely necessary.

Once the warm-up ended, the rest of the group finally arrived, instantly making the pool area lively.

Ruri Gokou and Kirino Kousaka came out last. They had brought along Ruri's two younger sisters, Hinata and Tamaki.

Since the two girls were on summer vacation, Ichin had suggested that Ruri bring them along to enjoy themselves.

After swimming a lap around the pool, Ichin returned to the edge and looked at Iijima Yun, who had just finished warming up.

Smiling, he asked,

"Didn't I tell you to bring your younger brother and sister too?"

Yun immediately shook her head repeatedly.

"No way! Don't think all children are as well-behaved as Hinata and Tamaki. The two little monsters in my house are unbelievably troublesome. A few days ago, I had my parents take them back to our hometown, and they're playing in the countryside right now. Since it's summer vacation, I definitely don't want to go home every day only to be bothered by them. The weather's already hot enough as it is."

Ichin burst out laughing.

"Alright, if they didn't come, then they didn't come. Want to swim a few laps? They've already started competing over there."

Following the direction Ichin pointed toward, Yun saw Haruno and Umiko rapidly swimming toward the opposite end of the pool.

"Uh... I'll take it slowly. It's been a long time since I last swam. Let me get used to it first."

As she spoke, she grabbed a swimming ring from nearby, put it around herself, and slowly entered the water.

One after another, everyone began enjoying themselves in the pool.

Ichin waved toward Hinata and Tamaki, who were floating around with swimming rings.

"Big Brother Ichin!"

The two girls clearly liked him very much and immediately ran over while sweetly greeting him.

Patting their heads, Ichin smiled.

"It's been a while since I've seen you two. Hinata, how's university life been this semester?"

Although Hinata hadn't managed to enter the University of Tokyo, she had successfully been admitted to Osaka University, one of Japan's top universities, majoring in Economics.

Hinata happily replied,

"It's great! I've made a lot of friends, and my studies are going smoothly too. I was just a little short this semester, but I'm confident I can get a scholarship next semester!"

"That's impressive."

Ichin praised and encouraged her before turning toward Tamaki.

"What about you, Tamaki? You're about to enter your third year of high school, right? The career surveys should be starting soon. Have you decided which university you want to attend?"

"Umm... I haven't thought about it yet."

Tamaki shook her head with a troubled expression.

"I'm not as good at studying as Big Sister Hinata, so I don't know if I can get into a great university."

Tamaki's grades were above average. If she worked hard, she should still be able to enter a respectable university.

Ichin encouraged her with a smile.

"Then do your best. When the time comes, choose a major you genuinely want to study and work hard at it. As long as you master your field, Big Brother Ichin will take care of your employment after graduation."

"Yay!"

Hinata raised her hand excitedly.

"Then, Big Brother Ichin, can I work at your company?"

"Of course. Since you're studying Economics, you could get an accounting certification. In the future, you can join the finance department at my company. With Kirino there, your work life should go very smoothly."

At that moment, Kirino Kousaka walked over in her bikini, her tall figure especially eye-catching.

"I heard someone mentioning my name!"

After Ichin explained Hinata's idea, Kirino happily hugged her.

"Of course you can! When the time comes, Hinata can become my assistant~~~ Big Sister here is the boss of the finance department, you know. I'll take good care of you!"

After being affectionately squeezed by Kirino, Hinata narrowed her eyes and laughed.

"Hehe, but I think it'd be even better if Big Brother Ichin took care of me. He's the company president, after all!"

Kirino immediately turned around and glared at Ichin.

"I met Hinata before you did! Why is she taking your side?"

Ichin proudly raised his chin.

"That's what you call personal charm, you know?"
