The training camp had been decided, and Sicily proposed the training camp would be held at her territory where there were many hot springs. Still, since they needed to go quite far away, they needed someone who could monitor them, and the one who would monitor them would be both Melinda and Merlin since both of them somehow felt worried that their grandson might teach something that couldn't be taught by anyone.
After all, both Melinda and Merlin knew that there would be 11 students from both Els and Ys Nation that would be sent to the Magic Academy to join the Ultimate Magic Research Society to maintain the balance between nations which made them helpless. Still, they also understood that it was because of their grandson's fault, so they didn't say much, and it was also the reason why both of them came with them to the training camp.
Melinda, Merlin, Shin, and August were on the same carriage along the journey, but Melinda couldn't help but admire Haru's carriage. "Haru, your carriage doesn't have a horse?"
Haru shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I use my magic to move my carriage."
"......." Melinda looked at the horseless carriage, then looked at Haru, thinking that she might be someone who would match Shin.
Shin also looked at Haru's carriage and was amazed. "It's a car!"
"Car?" Everyone was looking at Shin weirdly.
"Oh, ah, nothing!" Shin quickly shook his head and pretended nothing had happened. After all, he didn't expect the people in this world to create the prototype of the modern car.
"Aunt Melinda, we can talk later during training camp," Haru said since he wanted to enjoy the hot spring.
Melinda nodded and said, "That's true. If we're in a hurry, then we might be able to arrive at Claude's territory tonight."
Then everyone went to their own carriage, but Melinda glanced at Haru for the last time and was surprised when he saw four girls enter his carriage directly, then looked at his grandson that only came with August, which made her frown.
The trip started, and Melinda couldn't help but ask, "Shin, don't you have a girlfriend?"
"G - Girlfriend?" Shin was dumbfounded and quickly shook his head. "No, I don't have a girlfriend, grandma."
"You're already in 15! You're an adult! You should get a girlfriend, you know?" Melinda scolded Shin.
Shin was bitter, after all, even though he was interested in someone, the girl he was interested in didn't show affection toward him, and he also wasn't sure how to get close to that girl. After all, he was a virgin in his previous life without any experience with the opposite gender.
"Shin, this time, I agree with your grandmother." Merlin looked at Shin and asked, "Still, even if you don't have a girlfriend, is there a girl that you're interested in?"
"Well..." Shin blushed, and he was quite shy.
August sighed but didn't say much.
"August, do you know who Shin is crushed with?" Melinda asked.
"......." August wasn't sure what to say, but being stared at by the Wise Man and the Guru, he could only say, "Probably, Claude."
"Aug!" Shin's face was so red at that moment.
"Oh? That beautiful blue-haired girl?" Merlin nodded and said, "Yes, she's beautiful." He thought that Sicily was quite suitable for his grandson.
"Really?" Melinda asked weirdly.
"Um..." Even though Shin was shy, he nodded.
Merlin was happy, but Melinda and August couldn't say much. After all, they had a feeling that Shin's love life wouldn't be easy.

The trip was quite smooth, though. Some demons appeared along the way before. They instantly perished since everyone was powerful, but enough of that since they had arrived at Sicily's territory.
"Welcome to the city of Claude!"
Haru observed the town, and the only thing that came to mind was that this place was like a hot spring resort town, which was pretty much an interesting place.
They didn't stop in the city but moved directly to the manor, where Sicily's servants had been waiting for them.
"Everyone, we're here," Sicily said with a smile.
"Welcome back, Miss Sicily!" Sicily's servants said at the same time, welcoming everyone on the manor.
Then the servants welcomed everyone, and since the trip was quite tiring them out, they decided to start the training camp tomorrow, and for now, they decided to take a break in the hot spring inside the manor.
After all, it was during the training camp, so there was no way for Haru, Yuri, and Lynn to be together in the hot spring pool, and they needed to go to their own hot spring pool based on their own gender.
Shin, Merlin, and the rest of the male students went to the hot spring pool together and happily washed their bodies.
"By the way, where's Haru?" Shin asked.
"What's wrong, Shin?" Haru asked after he entered the hot spring pool. There was a white towel around his waist that covered almost half of his lower body.
"Hey Haru, we're all male. You don't need to get embarrassed," Julius said with a smile, showing his bare naked body.
"Yeah, you don't need to be shy. Let's see what is behind your towel," Tony said with a mischievous smile.
August and Shin could only shake their heads, but they didn't stop them. However, everyone had to admit that Haru's body was simply Godly, but it wasn't enough to satisfy them. After all, they wanted to know how the thing was hiding behind the white towel, but then...
"........"
"Satisfied?" Haru asked simply.
"........" They looked down and quickly hid their lower bodies since if they showed it any longer, their confidence would be hit hard.
The scene afterward was simply normal, and they talked about how glad they were with their friendship or something, which was pretty much normal.
---
As for the girls' side, they were more excited. After all, everyone was quite amazed by Melinda's body. Even though she had aged, her body wouldn't lose to any woman in their late 20s.
But then, there was one question that Melinda wanted to ask, "Say, are any of you interested in my grandson?"
"..........." Everyone was silent after those words.
Melinda sighed and said, "I wonder whether he isn't popular."
"I think that's the opposite. Shin is pretty much popular among the academy," Maria said.
"But do any of you think of him to make him your boyfriend?" Melina asked.
"........."
Melinda sighed and asked, "Still, Yuri, Lynn, I have heard that you two are dating, Haru, right? Is that alright?"
"It's alright." Lynn nodded.
"Yes, we're happy together." Yuri also nodded.
"........" Melinda looked at Yuri and Lynn, then asked, "Say, have you two become a woman?"
"What?!" 2x
Lynn and Yuri were dumbfounded by Melinda's question.
"Just tell us, don't be shy. No one is going to hear our conversation," Melinda said without hesitation since she was also quite curious about their love life, including their nightlife.
Sicily, Maria, Alice, and Olivia might not say anything, but they agreed and wanted to know their story.
"........" Yuri and Lynn looked at each other and thought that their training camp would be very troublesome.
