Chapter 345: Alice in Action
"Hachiman-kun!"
Upon hearing someone calling his name, Hachiman turned his head and saw Alice sitting on a nearby lounge chair, waving at him.
"Oh, it's Alice. What's up?"
Knowing that Hachiman prefers long-haired girls, Alice had already grown out her hair, now sporting waist-length silver locks, complemented by her red eyes...
"Hachiman-kun, could you do me a favor..."
Thinking about what she needed to do next, a faint blush appeared on Alice's face.
Seeing her like this, Hachiman felt a bit curious but nodded nonetheless.
"What is it? Just tell me, and if I can help, I will."
Upon hearing his response, Alice felt a hint of sweetness in her heart.
Hachiman-kun is always so kind, unlike that cold-hearted Ryo-kun, who always bullies me.
After a brief pause, she finally voiced her request.
"Could... Could you help me apply sunscreen, Hachiman-kun?"
It was already past 10 o'clock, and the weather was gradually heating up.
Sunscreen was essential for beach activities, as without it, not only could one get sunburned easily, but the UV rays at the beach were also stronger, posing a risk to the skin.
Looking up at the cloudless sky, the sun was shining intensely, and it was indeed time to apply sunscreen. However...
Seeing Alice's blush, Hachiman hesitated.
To be honest, he was more familiar with the Nakiri sisters from the Nakiri family, especially with Erina. Alice, on the other hand, was relatively unfamiliar to him. However, whenever he went to the Nakiri house to compete with Erina, Alice was always present, and she seemed genuinely happy whenever he won.
Initially, he thought her happiness stemmed from his rivalry with Erina. However, after spending more time together, he realized it wasn't just that.
And now, she was asking him to apply sunscreen...
Let's boldly assume for a moment that Alice likes me. But what could be her motive for falling for me?
Upon careful consideration, the only plausible reason could be the kiss on the beach last time.
Though it was due to an emergency requiring artificial respiration, he did kiss her, and not just once.
This is the only possibility.
It's surprising that Alice, who was so lively and adorable in the original work, would be so innocent, falling for him just because of a kiss.
But Hachiman didn't plan to refuse. Since he intended to pursue a harem, adding one more wouldn't hurt. After all, Alice had silver hair and red eyes, which were typical characteristics of a character from an action game. As a transmigrator, he naturally couldn't deviate from the norm. Moreover, Alice also had the attribute of being sisters with Erina, although not blood-related, it was still quite good.
Now that he was already considered a scumbag, he might as well embrace it fully, like Haru. However, he wasn't the type of scumbag who would deny his actions. He treated every girl seriously.
Seeing Hachiman silent, Alice started to feel anxious.
Does Hachiman-kun not like proactive girls?
But if she doesn't take the initiative, Hachiman-kun might be taken away by someone else. She had observed that there were quite a few girls interested in Hachiman on this beach. If Hachiman was really taken away by someone else, she would regret it.
Should she really team up with Erina?
Just as the girl was lost in her thoughts, Hachiman spoke up.
"Alice, I can help you with the sunscreen, but would you be okay with that?"
Upon hearing Hachiman's words, Alice's face lit up with a smile, and she nodded repeatedly.
"I don't mind at all."
"Well, since you don't mind, let's get started." Hachiman also nodded with a smile.
After all, when a girl asks a guy to help apply sunscreen, it's always the guy who benefits. Hachiman naturally wouldn't refuse such a good opportunity.
"Mhmm."
Seeing his agreement, the girl nodded repeatedly and then lay down on the beach chair beneath him.
"Come on, Hachiman-kun, I'm ready."
With sunscreen in hand, Hachiman walked to the side of the beach chair and looked down at the girl.
Due to her Nordic heritage, Alice's skin was whiter and smoother than the average person's, reflecting a porcelain-like luster under the sunlight.
She wore a strapless swimsuit, and her silver-white long hair was piled up in front of her chest. At this moment, her smooth bare back was fully displayed in front of him. His gaze shifted downward, her slender waist seemed to be just within reach, followed by her protruding buttocks, and finally, her long and graceful legs, resembling a work of art.
"How do I look, Hachiman-kun? Do I look good?"
Sensing Hachiman's gaze scanning over her, Alice felt a bit shy, but she was also quite happy.
Hmm, it seems my body is quite attractive to Hachiman-kun.
"You look beautiful, Alice."
Hachiman never hesitated to praise beautiful girls.
"I'm glad to hear that, thank you for your compliment, Hachiman-kun."
A smile appeared on the girl's lips, and then she reached out to undo the straps behind her back. As the straps fell, the semi-roundness of her chest became particularly enticing.
"Hachiman-kun, please be careful when applying sunscreen. I don't want any tan lines."
Being partially of Nordic descent, this girl was bolder in this regard than most.
Seeing her actions, Hachiman couldn't help but pause for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.
Since you're offering yourself up like this, I won't hold back.
With this thought in mind, a mischievous smile appeared on his lips.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure to apply it evenly for you, Alice."
Sensing the teasing tone in Hachiman's voice, a shy blush appeared on Alice's face.
You're so naughty, Hachiman-kun.
At that moment, Hachiman was also preparing, warming the sunscreen in his hands.
Looking at the milky liquid in his hands, he couldn't help but feel a strange sensation.
Ah, I'm about to apply this milky liquid onto the girl's body. Just thinking about it made him feel a bit excited.
Damn, your XP is so weird, buddy.
After rubbing it for a while and feeling the sunscreen warm up, Hachiman reached out his hands toward Alice, who was lying on the beach chair.
"It's about to start, Alice."
As he spoke, his hands directly landed on the girl's smooth bare back.
"Ah..."
