Playing With Other Supernaturals Volume 10 601 -Convincing the High Elf

Volume 10 Chapter 601 – Convincing the High Elf

After introducing all the new members to Loki and her Familia, her children also started introducing themselves to them. Of course, Loki noted that something was strange with the black-haired little girl, but she didn’t want to ask them openly.

Hestia and Artemis also decided not to tell Loki that Ophis isn’t actually a member of their Familia and just let them assume that she was, along with the other new members.

After everyone’s turn, Kisuke asked a question that had been bothering him since earlier, “By the way, Loki-sama, where’s Riveria-san? Since you brought all of your female members, she should be around here too, unless she has some business she needs to attend to.”

Loki pointed her thumb over her and said, “I gave her a swimsuit, but she hasn’t come out.”

It was then that everyone suddenly noticed that Kisuke was already holding a camera in his hands, “Oi,” Yoruichi called out.

Kisuke hurriedly put it back and scratched his head in embarrassment, “My bad habit. I apologize.”

However, Loki gave him a thumbs-up, “I approve if you can provide me a copy! Well, only if you can actually make her wear a swimsuit.”

Kisuke’s eyes shone and he said, “Deal! I’ll try to convince her!” He then started walking towards the rock where Riveria was still mulling about the origin of the world, trying to escape the reality in front of her.

“T-that face… It’s the face he makes when he wants to mess with someone…” Akeno muttered.

“…And from the looks of it, this is not the first time he’s doing it for that particular person,” Irina added with a twitching mouth.

Curious, Serafall turned to Yoruichi and asked, “Say, Yoru-chan, why does he seem so gung ho about this?”

Yoruichi rubbed her chin in contemplation before replying, “Hmm… If I were to describe Riveria, she’s the same type of person as Sona-chan.”

“I agree!” Aika nodded at her words.

“Aika, shut it. And Nee-sama please stop asking about it.” But if Sona were to totally be honest, she could really see herself in Riveria. Though the two of them were still very unique individuals. Nevertheless, in Kisuke-meter, the two of them are very ‘bulliable’.

Ignoring Sona, Serafall nodded like a sage, “If that’s the case, then I understand.”

“Kukuku, from my perspective, it’s Sona-chan who is very similar to our Riveria. And one could argue that an embarrassed expression of an overly serious person is one of the best!” Loki also added.

“What’s this conference of ‘Appreciation of the Overly Serious?” Tiona asked.

“Don’t ask me. But I’m actually surprised that they can keep up with Loki’s nonsensical talks,” replied Tione.

While they were all agreeing and getting along with each other, Kisuke reached the boulder where Riveria was hiding and as before, she was still holding the skimpy swimsuit that Loki gave her, “Woah, that some impressive swimsuit you’ve got there~!”

Hearing the familiar voice that shouldn’t be here, Riveria was startled and hurriedly turned towards his direction, “K-Kisuke!? What’re you doing here!?”

But recalling his question and realizing that she’s still holding the swimsuit, Riveria’s face instantly heated up, and tried to hide it behind her, “Y-you’ve got it wrong! Loki gave this to me and I don’t have any intention of wearing it!”

“Is that so? Such a shame,” replied Kisuke with a disappointed face.

“It is not!” Riveria retorted with all her might.

Riveria then took a deep breath and managed to sufficiently calm down. But before she said anything, she first observed Kisuke properly as she noticed that he’s wearing swimwear and guessed his intentions in this location. She then rightfully assumed that the rest of the Hestia Familia must be around too if he’s here.

With her expression returning to normal, Riveria asked again, “Ehem, I see that you’ve returned, but what are you doing here?”

“Same as your Familia, to have some fun.”

“I’m sorry to break it to you, but we’re not here to have some fun. It’s to investigate the movements of the strange monsters that appeared on the surface.”

Kisuke turned his head towards the group of girls and replied, “Really? They seem to be having plenty of fun.”

“It was Loki’s idea. Soon we’ll have to move according to our schedule.”

“It’s fine to have a bit of fun too, you know.”

Surprisingly, Riveria nodded, “I know, that’s why I’m joining them soon.”

However, thanks to this, Kisuke found the flow where he wanted to take this conversation, “With that swimsuit?”

Riveria glared at him and answered, “I’m never wearing this!”

“So you’re saying that you’ll join them with that usual attire of yours?”

“It’s not a problem, is it?” Riveria then turned around and started walking out, intending to join others as it is.

“It’s not technically a problem, but you’ll be dampening the mood a bit,” with a huge sigh, Kisuke continued, “I guess, as a High Elf and royalty, you really can’t wear a swimsuit and join other races on a beach in it.”

Suddenly, Riveria halted her steps because she heard something that she didn’t like. Turning towards Kisuke with an offended expression, Riveria replied, “This has nothing to do with me being a High Elf nor royalty.”

Shoving the swimsuit she’s hiding to Kisuke, Riveria continued with a dignified voice, “Although it’s getting popular in some parts of the continent, there’s actually no cultural origin of wearing these ‘swimsuits’ and it was only introduced by the Deities in recent times. Even then, I knew for sure that even an Amazoness wouldn’t wear this kind of extreme swimsuit. So let me repeat it. Me being High Elf or Royalty has nothing to do with this.”

Of course, Kisuke already knew of her past and already figured some of her insecurities, and this was the reaction he’d been hoping to get. Clapping his hand together, Kisuke ‘realized’ it, “Oh, so it’s not that you won’t wear it, but the swimsuit itself that is the problem. That means, if it’s a proper swimsuit similar to the others, then it won’t be a problem and you’ll wear it, right?”

Riveria’s serious demeanor faltered a bit and thought that she may have fallen for a trap. However, she can’t really take back what she’d already said and just nodded, “Y-yeah.” Though a bit nervous, she’s very sure that Loki didn’t bring an extra swimsuit so the only problem is if Kisuke pulled out a set for her, ‘B-but that’s ridiculous, right? Why would he go around carrying swimsuits for women with him?’ She thought.

However, her hopes were instantly dashed when Kisuke suddenly pulled a swimsuit out of thin air, “How about these?”

Kisuke showed her a cute light-green and white bikini.
