After they had confirmed their relationship, they became even closer, but of course, they didn't show it too much in public since if they did that, they would hurt the hearts of every single member of the Strikers.
It was already very hard to train every day during the summer camp and they didn't want to be tortured by the showing affection of Haru and his harem.
If they were strong enough, then they might complain. Unfortunately, they were too afraid to do that since they knew very well how strong Haru was.
But enough of that, they continued to train as usual and every day was quite peaceful.
During the day they were training and in the evening, they gathered together to play around happily from tests of courage, singing, eating delicious foods, etc.
However, the more peaceful it was, the more he felt that there would be a problem.
"Haru, your BBQ skill is SSS Rank!"
The more they knew Haru, the more amazing he was in their minds from training, his strength, cooking, and there was a lot more, he could do all of that easily.
If Haru wanted then all the female members of the Striker would already become his harem members, however, he didn't do that since he knew that it was better to limit the number, though, if they wanted a friendly match, he wouldn't hesitate to help them since he knew that all of them were still girls and hadn't become women.
When everyone tried to steal the BBQ from Haru's BBQ grill, Jeanne noticed something.
"What's wrong?" Jeanne asked.
"Are you worried about your promotion to the S Rank?" Tokiko asked, and when she was asking, her hand was about to grab Haru's ass, but she was stopped once again.
"I am not worried since it has already been decided that I will already become an S Rank Savior."
Haru's announcement surprised everyone and they congratulated him, but at the same time, there was someone that clicked her tongue.
"Tch!"
Tokiko clicked her tongue since she failed to grab Haru's ass once again, but suddenly she felt her ass was being grabbed!
"What?!"
Tokiko was startled and then looked at Haru, who suddenly grabbed her ass, without even looking at her, or rather this guy dared to talk with other women, even though he was grabbing her ass, squeezing it to every angle that she couldn't think of before he slapped it, but when he slapped her ass, there was no sound, however, she didn't care any of that since she was very weak and flustered at this moment.
Tokiko might be very aggressive, but with her position as Vice-Captain of the Striker, no one dared to say anything to her and her strength was also without doubt, so that was why, when someone younger than her, messing her ass in front of the public... she couldn't help... she couldn't help but turn on by this situation!
"What's wrong, Tokiko? Your face is red, desu?" Sophia asked with a confused expression.
"Huh?"
Tokiko was confused, but then she saw his harmless smile which made her shudder.
"No - Nothing!"
"Really? If you're sick then you should rest," Sophia said with a worried expression.
"It's alright, you don't need to worry, just enjoy the BBQ." Tokiko didn't want to continue this conversation or rather she couldn't focus on this conversation since the feeling of being bullied in public without anyone noticing was so exciting!
In Tokiko's mind, she was wondering whether this guy was capable of turning invisible and both of them could do something that couldn't be shown to a child in public, if so, then it was amazing!
Haru slapped Tokiko's ass for the last time since he really had enough of this perverted senpai. He had never fought back before, but once he fought back, this girl was going into a mess, but well, it wasn't a time to do that since there was something more important since he believed something might happen during the summer camp so he wanted to prepare himself.
After the BBQ, they went to the beach to play with the fireworks.
Haru was looking at the sparkles, then couldn't help but ask Maya, who seemed to be excited.
"Maya-chan, do you like sparkles?"
"Yes!"
Maya smiled happily and said, "When I woke up to the memories of my past life, I was really scared at first. I didn't know which way the real me, the past me, or the current me. I couldn't stop crying. But Mari-oneechan told me while we were playing with fireworks. The past Maya and the present Maya are one and the same. We share the same soul. We're the same person."
Haru smiled and patted Maya's head. "Mari is a great older sister."
"Yes, she is!"
Maya nodded happily.
When they played suddenly everything turned into chaos when some members of the Strikers tried to pick a fight with Tokiko, then Tokiko without hesitation, sent out her Dark Art toward them which caused the situation to turn even more chaotic.
Haru then slipped and brought Jeanne with him to enjoy the scenery of the beach tonight secretly.
Jeanne also smiled since it had been a while since she had done something so sneaky.
When they were about to go, they met Shizuno, who they thought was resting at lodging alone, but it seemed that she changed her clothes into yukata.
"You're pretty late, Shizuno."
Shizuno blushed when she saw Haru, especially when she was wearing a yukata at that moment.
"Um, my brother forced me to wear this. Should I not wear it?" Shizuno asked nervously.
"Of course not, you're so enchanting tonight," Haru said and admired Shizuno's appearance.
Shizuno was shy, but she was very happy. Even though both of them had done the thing which had done something that was usually done by married couple sometimes she acted very shy at an unexpected moment.
Haru, who admired Shizuno's appearance, felt that his waist was being twisted and he quickly said, "Of course, you're so beautiful that I can't take my eyes from you, Jeanne."
"Hmph!"
Jeanne was jealous.
Shizuno smiled, but then, she asked, "Where are you two going?"
"Well, we're going to enjoy the night sky."
"Shizuno, how about you follow us?" Jeanne asked.
"Yes."
Shizuno nodded and didn't hesitate since the relationship between the three was very close and she also shared the same man as Jeanne.
They then searched for a quiet place, where they could see the members of the Striker while enjoying the night sky and the sea.
The reflection of the moon on the water was so breathtaking that they couldn't take away their eyes for a moment.
"Haru, I have heard that you're very good at singing, can you sing us a song?" Jeanne asked.
"Eh? Really?" Shizuno was surprised.
"I don't mind."
Haru nodded then took a guitar out of nowhere.
Shizuno didn't feel surprised by this scene since she knew that Haru's strength was unfathomable or rather this guy had too much ability. Looking at him, she believed that he should be an Emperor that conquered 1/3 or 2/3 or all the world in his previous lives and might have had a lot of wives and concubines so she didn't feel that much surprised.
"So what kind of song is this?" Shizuno asked.
"You might not have heard this song."
"New song?!" Shizuno was surprised since she didn't expect that he would create a new song for them. She felt moved and even though the song might not be good, she was going to give him a lot of services later after they returned from the summer camp.
On the other hand, Jeanne was relatively calm, but she really anticipated his song.
"The title of this song is "Hana (Flower)"," Haru said then started to sing without using his guitar.
"Like a flower petal withering away
The encounter with you was like a dream
Being in love, getting into fights
We conquered over many walls together
Even after I'm reborn, I shall be a flower close to you."
Then Haru started to play his guitar, giving beautiful music to this love music.
Listening to Haru's songs, Shizuno and Jeanne were dumbfounded since they realized that this song could perfectly describe their relationship.
"Becoming stronger by loving one."
Shizuno and Jeanne knew that when they felt weak, they felt his love and they became stronger and they also did the same.
"Overcoming things by believing in one."
They had also overcome a lot of things from Metaphysical, S Rank Savior, and a lot more together.
"I feel blessed to meet you
To bring back my smile
I continue to walk holding close to this emotion of "Thank you"."
Every sentence that came out from his mouth, brought them a smile on their mouths.
"Like a flower petal withering away
The encounter with you was like a dream
Being in love, getting into fights
We conquered over many walls together
Even if I'm reborn, I want to meet you again."
Hearing those words, they knew their feelings well, and they also felt the same as him. Even if they were reincarnated in the future, their feelings would be the same and they wanted to meet him again.
The one who heard his song wasn't only Shizuno and Jeanne, but most of the members of the Striker also turned silent to listen to this song since it moved them.
"Meeting you, that was destiny."
Haru knew that his every meeting with girls on the quest was destiny, and it was inevitable so he should treat them better and better. He closed his eyes and thought about the girls that he had hurt in his life and thought that he should apologize for what he had done. He knew that he was a scumbag, but he would make every woman that he met happy and made them not regret their meeting with him.
'Brandish...'
Haru thought and felt that he should meet her.
"After the rain, a rainbow casts a light shalt to be born upon a storm
There's an unyielding important thing here
I've realized what it means "to love"
You can still walk, can't you? You can see it already
"Emotions" will cross time and shall ring into eternity
Your happiness, Your pain, Your everything
Now, Bloom with pride More, more, and more...."
When the song ended, Haru noticed that both Jeanne and Shizuno had tears in their eyes.
"What are you crying for?"
Haru hugged both of them and kissed their foreheads.
They then snuggled into his arms and chest, smiling in satisfaction about their relationship but..
"Don't leave me!"
"Me too!"
"Bastard, how can you leave us!"
"....."
Haru, Jeanne, and Shizuno didn't feel surprised when they saw Satsuki and Maya, who ran toward them, but the rest?
Jeanne and Shizuno thought that they should keep him away from a number of girls or else, they knew that the number of his harems would increase so much.
When they were in a happy mood, they didn't realize that something was about to come to destroy this happy mood.
