Issei and Kiba jumped in together with a loud splash, the two of them quickly turning the deep end into their own little bromance zone.
Issei was doing exaggerated swimming strokes while Kiba moved with graceful efficiency, the two bantering lightly about training and swords. The "Oppai Dragon and the Prince" duo was in full effect.
Xenovia wasted no time.
She swam straight toward Silas like a shark, grabbed his arm, and pulled him into the water with surprising strength.
SPLASH!
Silas resurfaced, water dripping from his hair, only to find Xenovia already clinging to him from the front. Her tall, athletic body pressed against his, her swimsuit clinging tightly to her curves.
Rias and Akeno jumped in right after, both now changed into cute bikinis. Rias in a bold crimson two-piece that barely contained her chest, and Akeno in a seductive black and purple set that accentuated her dangerous figure.
Xenovia didn't let go. She wrapped her arms around Silas's neck, legs loosely around his waist, floating with him in the water.
"You gotta wait your turn, you know," Silas said, half-amused, half-exasperated. "I haven't even spoken to you normally without you trying to fuck me."
Xenovia tilted her head, completely serious. "Is that how you become lovers? I have a lot to learn then."
She still clung to him tightly. Silas sighed but didn't push her away. Instead, his hands moved down and boldly squeezed her plump, firm ass cheeks, kneading them under the water.
Xenovia's face turned bright red, but she didn't pull away.
"How's being a devil so far?" he asked, still fondling her ass casually.
She shivered slightly at his touch but answered honestly.
"Well… it's not that bad. I can see in the dark now. I think I'm stronger than before. I heal much faster without holy items getting in the way. Also, Asia and Koneko have been treating me well at the ORC." She paused, then added softly, "I can't wait to come live with you all though."
Silas gave her ass another firm squeeze. "Yeah, you won't have to wait long. Even I have my limits, you know."
Rias and Akeno swam right up beside them. Akeno's hand immediately slipped underwater and went straight to Silas's crotch, palming him teasingly through his shorts.
"Ara ara~ Can we join?" she purred.
Silas smirked, one hand still on Xenovia's ass while the other moved to rest on Rias's hip.
"Save that for later," he said, though his tone suggested he wasn't entirely against the idea.
Rias pouted cutely but pressed herself against his side anyway. "You're such a tease."
The water around them was warm, the sun shining down, and the group floated together in a messy, affectionate pile. Xenovia still clung to him like a limpet, Akeno's hand refused to leave his crotch, and Rias kept stealing kisses on his shoulder.
Koneko and Asia watched from the shallower end, both pouting jealously.
Silas just sighed contentedly. 'This is turning into a proper beach episode after all.'
After the initial chaos, Silas decided to be somewhat useful.
"Alright, you two can't swim? That's unacceptable," he said, looking at Koneko and Asia.
Without any warning, he grabbed both girls and casually tossed them into the deep end.
SPLASH! SPLASH!
Koneko and Asia flailed wildly, panicking.
"If you want a date with me," Silas called out from the edge, arms crossed, "you'll have to race to the other side. First one there wins."
Koneko's competitive spirit ignited instantly. She started paddling with surprising determination, her cat-like instincts kicking in.
Asia, on the other hand, was a mess, splashing around adorably until she somehow found a rhythm.
In the end, Koneko won by a small margin, touching the wall first.
Silas grinned and pulled both of them out.
"Fine. I'll take everyone on a date. Why not?"
The girls cheered, Asia especially looked over the moon. The rest of the afternoon turned into pure fun.
They played Marco Polo, with Issei getting suspiciously quiet every time it was his turn to be "it."
He spent most of the game underwater, eyes wide open, staring at every girl's ass and thighs as they moved through the water.
Then the water suddenly split apart around Issei like the Red Sea, leaving him standing on the dry pool floor, completely exposed. Everyone turned to look.
Silas casually walked through the parted water, stopped right in front of the stunned Issei, and gave him a firm knock on the head.
Bonk!
Issei clutched his head, tears in his eyes.
"Ow! That hurt, you bastard!"
The water closed back around him with a splash, leaving him sputtering.
The fun continued until the sun began to set, painting the sky in beautiful oranges and pinks. They played more games, splashed each other, and laughed until everyone was exhausted but happy.
As they finally started packing up, Silas stood at the edge of the pool, looking out at the glowing horizon.
'That was fun,' he thought, a small smile on his face. Then his expression turned mischievous as he rubbed his hands together.
'But I still want a real beach episode though… Grayfia in a bikini of my choosing.' The thought alone made his smirk widen into something downright evil.
.....
After the pool day, the group headed back to the manor as the sun dipped below the horizon.
The moment they stepped inside, it was obvious everything had been thoroughly cleaned. The floors gleamed, the furniture was perfectly arranged, and even the air smelled fresher. Grayfia and Sirzechs were sitting in the living room.
Sirzechs calmly sipped tea from a fine cup, looking every bit the composed Maou. Grayfia sat beside him, staring at the large TV with a slightly awkward expression.
She wasn't used to this kind of casual relaxation, it showed in her stiff posture.
Silas didn't bother greeting them. He simply walked straight upstairs without a word, leaving Rias and Akeno to handle the small talk and explain their day.
Once in the master bedroom, he closed the door and sat on the edge of the bed, scrolling through his phone absentmindedly.
'When do they leave again?' he thought, annoyed. 'Can't even sit in my undies anymore. Well… I could, but I don't like the idea of Sirzechs looking at me.'
A soft knock came from the door.
Silas glanced over, easily seeing through the wood with his senses. The moment he recognized who it was, a smirk spread across his face. He stood up and walked over.
He opened the door.
Grayfia stood there, looking down at the floor, a noticeable blush coloring her usually pale cheeks.
"I—"
She didn't get to finish.
Silas grabbed her wrist and pulled her inside the room in one smooth motion. The door shut behind her with a soft click. He turned the lock without looking, his smirk widening as he backed her against the door.
