What Do You Mean I'm The Captain Of A Yandere Mercenary Company? Chapter 885: It’s The Waterpark Arc

My companions were resplendent in their new attire, signaling the opportune moment for our grand escapade!

I emerged onto the vibrant streets of the Pleasure Station, clad in my swimsuit, merging seamlessly with the multitude also embarking on their well-deserved vacations.

Indeed, as I had first observed upon arrival, the central expanse of the Pleasure Station functioned as an enormous aquatic amusement park. Nearly every individual navigating this area was sporting swimwear.

This establishment primarily operates on an entry-fee basis, granting access to all its amenities upon payment of a single admission charge.

Naturally, this comprehensive access was confined to the water park attractions themselves; pursuits such as gaming in the casinos or indulging in culinary delights were separate from the entrance fee.

Even within the realm of entry tickets, premium options existed, designating patrons as VIPs entitled to preferential treatment across all facilities. This included the coveted privilege of bypassing queues for every attraction~

The cost for such exclusivity, predictably, was equally premium, amounting to two million Credits per person daily. However, with the four hundred million Credits Yuki had generously provided, we could comfortably afford this luxury. Consequently, I procured these exclusive passes for the entire duration of our stay~

This acquisition bestowed upon us platinum bangles, clasped to our wrists for identification, which we simply had to present to the staff to receive the aforementioned first-class treatment.

After all, what is the purpose of accumulating wealth if not to luxuriate in its expenditure, wouldn't you agree?

Nevertheless, all such considerations receded as I focused on the paramount reason for our presence here.

Every one of my companions stood before me, adorned in the very swimsuits they had showcased earlier. They appeared utterly breathtaking, arrayed before my very eyes.

Faced with such a magnificent spectacle, I succumbed to its allure, immediately capturing a series of photographs as they gracefully posed at my request.

The most satisfying aspect was that these swimsuits were purchased, not rented. This meant I could always request they don them again aboard the ship should the mood strike~

This situation is truly ideal~

For reasons unclear to me, my companions also expressed a desire for me to pose for some pictures. I happily complied, finding myself standing still while they surrounded me, capturing images from every conceivable angle with their personal terminals.

Utterly charming~

Once our mutual photography session concluded, we proceeded into the heart of the theme park.

Glancing back at my companions, I inquired, "What shall be our first pursuit? Shall we brave the slides, or perhaps simply enjoy a leisurely swim? Wait... You are all capable swimmers, are you not?"

Amber puffed out her chest proudly, articulating, "Naturally! You imparted those skills to us directly, remember?"

That was, indeed, correct~ Although my instruction had been limited to Amber, Lea, and Ries.

Yet, it appeared my concerns were unfounded. Mara, being of Noble lineage, possessed swimming dexterity from her upbringing in a household with aquatic amenities.

Furthermore, Yumiko, a veteran of special forces operations, had undoubtedly acquired swimming proficiency during her service.

As for Renata... well... I suspect there is minimal cause for concern regarding her in this regard. Fundamentally, she is incapable of drowning, and the entirety of the GalaNet is available to instruct her in the art of swimming.

This revelation signifies... we can all immerse ourselves in the water with uninhibited joy!!

Our initial activity involved plunging into one of the expansive pools, where we engaged in boisterous splashing within its shallow precincts.

I derived immense amusement from playfully drenching my companions with water, a gesture they enthusiastically reciprocated.

We then migrated towards the slides, making our way to the most imposing one. Swiftly bypassing the considerable queue, we exploited our privilege by a simple presentation of the platinum bangles.

It may be pertinent to note that the queuing system was not singular in nature. In reality, there were four distinct lines. The first accommodated individuals with standard admission tickets. The second catered to the 'silver tier,' essentially a more distinguished ticket. A third line was designated for the 'gold tier,' one level superior to the silver. Finally, a 'platinum tier' awaited those, like ourselves, who had opted for the most exclusive and costly admission passes.

We disembarked from the elevator that conveyed us to the apex of the slide. As we proceeded, we passed the assembly of individuals still patiently waiting their turn on the ascending stairs. A mere glance at our bangles sufficed for the attentive staff to swiftly guide us onward, ahead of all others.

While traversing this path, I overheard a gentleman visitor remark to his companion with a lighthearted chuckle, "Observe those individuals circumventing the queue. To what depths has this establishment's standard fallen?"

Aware of his jovial intent, I simply turned to offer him a knowing grin and replied, "It's merely a matter of capital, my friend~"

His associates erupted in laughter as I continued onward, my companions flanking me. My hands were presently occupied, holding the hands of Ries and Yumiko.

The slide employed a specialized float designed to accommodate two individuals, thus necessitating that I share the descent with a companion.

While the staff were busy setting things up for us, my girls engaged in a game of rock-paper-scissors to determine who would accompany me. I found myself marveling at the fact that this universe still featured water slides, much like the ones from my past.

Granted, these were more high-tech, with water gushing from pipes to fill the slide's base rather than a mere trickle, but they were undeniably water slides after all~

I suppose some things are best left unchanged if they aren't broken.

The victor was Ries, who excitedly hopped over to me, exclaiming, "Boss~ Boss~ Me, me, me!"

So adorable~

She settled onto the front of the float, and I positioned myself behind her, placing her between my legs. With a final check to ensure we were ready, we were propelled down the slide. Ries let out a joyful shriek as we hurtled through the watery descent.

The slide was adorned with lights and holograms, creating an illusion of soaring through space at times as we rapidly navigated the enclosed tunnel. Despite having experienced the exhilaration of space flight in my Verlandi, dodging lasers and missiles, there's a unique novelty in riding a waterslide with my beloved on a float.

Eventually, a light appeared ahead, and we splashed into the pool below. The float bobbed on the surface, gently carrying us to the edge where we disembarked.

Ries looked up at me, her face beaming. "That was fun, Boss!!"

I couldn't agree more. Leaning down, I surprised my cat-girl lover with a kiss, and she soon melted into it, returning my affections.

Next up were Amber and Yumiko, who took a rather less graceful dive, flipping their float and plunging into the water. They had to swim to the edge on their own.

Mara and Lea, however, enjoyed a more elegant arrival. I suspect Mara used her powers to stabilize their float as they landed, allowing them to glide smoothly to the edge.

Finally, Renata appeared on her own float. My Eldritch maid seemed unbothered, as she had apparently taken great pleasure in groping me through my swimsuit during the ride down.

"Again! Again!" my girls cheered, all of them dripping wet.

I opted for a different slide, deciding not to impose on the same group again. We could always return later if the mood struck. The next slide was a simpler design: you start at the top, drop down, and the slide then slopes upward, launching you airborne towards a pool below.

Admittedly, I could have used my telekinesis to achieve a similar effect, making it less thrilling, but it was still enjoyable to relinquish control to gravity and soar through the air before diving into the water.

I surfaced just as Amber crashed nearby. My blonde-haired lover had clearly orchestrated it so the resulting splash would drench me. Hmph! A little water warfare could be fun!

As soon as she broke the surface, I quickly splashed her with water. She giggled and retaliated, only to move closer and plant a kiss on my lips.

Mmm~ This is truly the good life~
