The voice then said, "Well, I've done what I wanted to do, so I'll be going."
And Gen said, "Okay. Thanks again for the guidance, master."
The voice said nothing for a while, and then suddenly, it changed and said, "You've only just managed to release your aura? It seems like you're slacking off in your training, Gen. I bet the next time I meet you, I'll wipe the floor with you, hahaha."
The voice then went back to how it was before, and it said, "Well, you heard it. It's time for me to go. Keep working hard on your spear training, and one day, nothing will get in your way. Apart from me of course, hahaha.", and then the spear that was stuck in the ground crumbled into dust, which was scattered by the wind.
Gen then stood up, looked at the horizon where the spear had come from, and sighed.
Isabelle then pulled everyone out of their bubbles and said, "Wow, I haven't heard the Spear Master's voice in a while. It seems that you really are his disciple."
And Gen said, "I was his disciple like you heard."
"The only thing I heard was a master and a disciple missing each other, fufufu."
"Let's change the subject, please."
"Sure, but just one more question."
"Ok. You can ask."
"Whose was that other voice that came at the end? The one that said it was going to beat you up."
"It was the voice of the only current disciple of the Spear Master. In the time that I've been away from him, it seems that he has become cocky. I'll have to teach him a lesson when we meet."
"I see. Well, I guess now no one here will have any doubt that you are related to the Spear Master."
"Yes, but let's not stay on that subject. Let's talk about the event. Like, when does it start?"
"Well, you are going to attend the event with them, Briny. Why don't you explain the details to them."
Briny then said, "Ok, but first put on the clothes that I made. I want to make sure they are neither loose nor tight before the event starts."
And Gen said, "Ok. Where can I change?"
"Come with me. I'll take you to the bathroom, and I'll take the time to change too."
She then headed for the bathroom, and Gen, Lina, and Raja followed her.
They then walked down one floor of the building and walked around a bit until they arrived.
Briny then said, "Well, this is the men's room. When you are finished changing, wait for me here so I can see if your clothes need any adjustments."
Gen and Raja agreed, and then Briny went with Lina to a door next to the men's room.
Gen then entered the bathroom and put his new clothes on top of the sink. He then started to take off his clothes, but after he took off his shirt, he looked over and saw that Raja was walking around the bathroom wall.
He then asked, "Raja, what are you doing?"
And Raja said, "Didn't you see Gen? The ladies' room is on the other side of this wall."
"What about it, Raja? You don't think there's going to be some hole in there, do you?"
"You never know, Gen, you never know."
Gen then ignored him and finished changing. He then walked over to a mirror and began to look at how he looked in the clothes he was wearing. The clothes were very tight on his body and were almost entirely black, with some gray and yellow details.
He then thought, 'Damn. I asked for gold, not yellow.'
He then turned to Raja, and seeing him still walking around, he said, "Cut it out, Raja. If you go on like this, they will finish changing, and you won't have changed yet. Then I want to see how you will explain to them why you haven't changed your clothes."
And Raja said, "I've already changed, Gen."
Raja then snapped his fingers, and the clothes he was wearing turned into clothes very similar to Gen's, only with red details instead of yellow.
Gen then asked, "When did you change clothes?!"
And Raja said, "I changed inside the water bubble that the Queen made to protect us. Everyone was so focused on you that I took the opportunity to change."
"What?! Are you crazy?! What if someone had seen you change?!"
"No one saw me change, Gen. Have you forgotten that I can turn invisible?"
"Hm, that's true."
"Well, now that the clothing problem is over, can you help me?"
"Why do that, Raja? They should be done changing by now. We'll just waste time."
"I wouldn't say that Gen. Maybe Lina's clothes aren't the right size, and because of that, she had to take them off so Briny could fix them."
"I don't think so."
They then heard Lina say, "Are you two still in there? Why are you taking so long? Are either of you feeling sick?"
And Raja said, "Damn. You and your big mouth, Gen."
Gen then said, "I told you. Let's go already."
Gen then took his clothes and headed for the door, and Raja followed him out. As they went out, they saw Lina and Briny wearing clothes very similar to theirs, only Lina's had blue details, and Briny's had pink details.
Raja then said, "Wow, you girls look great."
And Gen said, "Yeah."
They both had a hard time taking their eyes off the girls because, just like theirs, their clothes were also very tight, which made almost all of their curves show.
Briny then said, "You two also look great in your clothes. Is there any part that is too loose or too tight?"
And Gen said, "No, mine is perfect."
Raja then said, "Mine is also just right, but that worries me because when I am in the middle of the event, I might work up a sweat, and my muscles might get tight in my clothes."
Gen and Lina then looked at Raja with disbelieving eyes, and Briny said, "Don't worry, Raja. I took that into account. These clothes are pretty stretchy."
And Raja said, "Good, then it's all right."
Briny then said, "Ok. Now that all the clothes are good let's go back upstairs so I can explain to you what the event is going to be like."
She then went towards the terrace, and the three came after her. They then arrived on the terrace, and seeing them, Isabelle said, "Wow, the clothes are beautiful, and you look great in them. You have surpassed yourself once again, Briny."
And Briny said, "Hahaha, thanks, mom."
Isabelle then said, "What do you think of the clothes, Zoe?"
Zoe was looking at the four of them but did not answer what her mother had asked her.
Isabelle then approached her and said, "Zoe? Didn't you hear me? What do you think of the clothes?"
Zoe was startled, as if she wasn't paying attention, and then said, "I-I think they look great. You get better at it every year, Briny."
Briny then said, "Hahaha, thanks."
She then turned to Gen, Raja, and Lina and said, "Come with me. From up here, we can have a good view of the first beach. It will be easier to explain the event with this view.", and then she went towards the ledge of the terrace with the other three.
Zoe then watched the four of them go towards the ledge. Isabelle then took the opportunity to approach Zoe slowly and said, "Zoe~~~"
Zoe was startled a little and said, "What's wrong, Mom?! You scared the hell out of me."
And Isabelle said, "Fufufu, there's no need to be nervous, Zoe. It's normal to get starstruck after seeing a body as muscular as his."
Zoe then glanced at Gen, started to turn a little red, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about. I was just looking at their clothes."
And Isabelle said, "I understand you. After all, there were too many details to notice, fufufu.", and Zoe then turned redder.
...
Gen, Raja, Lina, and Briny then approached the ledge of the building, and as they reached it, Briny said, "This is the first beach."
They then looked around and were able to see the entire beach from where they were standing.
Raja then said, "Wow, the beach is really crowded. Are all these people going to participate in the event?"
And Briny said, "No. Most of them are there to watch the event up close."
Raja then said, "Got it."
Lina then saw a building in the middle of the sea and asked, "Is that the water temple?"
And Briny said, "Yes."
Lina then said, "It's further away than I thought it would be."
And Briny said, "Its distance from the beach varies depending on the year."
Lina then said, "Hm, got it."
And Briny said, "Well, let me explain the event to you."
