Chapter 345: Refreshing Evening! Swimming In The Lake With Benladann

The amazing sight before me made me startled, Benladann's modeling her two-piece bikini was truly a wonderful dream come true. I had not thought she could get any prettier or sexy, but I was proven completely wrong.

The bikini in specific was a rather beautiful one, going well with her hair color as it was silver-colored, shiny, and had a metallic luster to it. She had complained it was a bit too tight in her breasts, but that's how I liked it... her beautiful body bathed in the sunlight as it began to sweat, making her look all glossy and even prettier than before.

"W-Will you stop staring at me like that?" sighed Benladann as she smacked me out of my daze.

"Ah... Sorry. It's just that you look too stunning..." I sighed.

"I-Is that so? Geez... I never thought you would end as such a perv... Alright, come, let's go bathe in the lake, for now, isn't that what you wanted to do?" asked Benladann.

"Bathe in the lake? Ah, right, very well..."

I had completely forgotten this was the original intention, mostly because I just used it as an excuse for Benladann to wear the sexy bikini I made for her.

We quickly decided to enjoy a beautiful day the outside, the lake was refreshing, and the water was very cold despite the hot temperatures outside, but that was for the better to make it even more refreshing.

A lot of the guys still decided to just fish outside than jump into the water, while the girls were more into swimming. I saw Tisha and Pekora compete for who could catch fishes with spears and began to fish groups after groups of them continuously.

"Phew, this water is so nice..." sighed Benladann, as she floated over the lake while bathing in the sun.

"Indeed it is. And the sun too, so warm and nice. Isn't this a wonderful combination? I guess you couldn't experience what was going to the beach in summer back on Earth, right?" I asked.

"Nope! Was it good? I wonder how many good moments you had with your family... You seemed to really love them, dearie." Said Benladann.

"Haha, they really healed the scars of my childhood with lots of good moments. I really miss them even now, but I've gotten past it now. And yeah, all these good memories I got with them remain within me. I do remember the times we went to the beach. At first, I was scared of the sea, but after that, I got more used to it. I liked picking up shells I found on the shore... I do remember we always ate fresh watermelons and fruit salads on the beach. Sometimes a lot of ice cream too..." I said.

"Ice cream! I wonder if we can make some here? Is it just ice and cream? And we've picked up various fruits from these new trees we found, how about we make a nice fruit salad too?" asked Benladann.

"Actually... that sounds like a wonderful idea! I believe we can make ice cream right about now! It's not so hard, actually. It is just making a cream out of milk, which we already have for when we eat pancakes, and then add some flavor. We could add fruit pieces and some sugar, and then, you put them inside a leather bag inside a bowl with a lot of ice and shake it! Well, that's how my grandma taught me." I said.

"Oooo! Let's just do that then! So fun!" said Benladann excitedly.

"Alright but first let's swim a bit more!" I said.

"Okay!"

Benladann followed me around as we swam through the refreshing lake, holding hands together, we had dived deep into the lake's crystalline waters and found a large group of fishes swimming around, who ran away right after they spotted us. There was also a large family of Ice Crocs in the depths, they seemed scared of our presence and had hidden deep underwater, but we decided to not bother them.

Using our hands, we picked up two massive fishes that looked like tunas, and Benladann was almost caught by a large Kraken, a Rank 3 Monster in the form of an octopus, which I swiftly defeated and brought with us as well. Yeah, no lewd hentai tentacle scenes here!

SPLASH!

"Pwah... That was a nice swim! I've never swim this much before..." sighed Benladann in relief.

"Me neither, I was indeed a pretty good experience altogether. We caught some fish!" I said, as Miranda who was cooking some fish with the rest of the guys greeted us.

"Oh! T-That's an octopus?! I never thought there could be some in freshwater..." said Miranda.

"Octopus?! Ah! I remember eating these in the ports of Midgard! Good times! They're good if you boil them or grill them up. Add some bean sauce, some salt, and they're so chewy and good! Drake, bring it here! I'll butcher up for you!" said Rakasha.

"Alright old man, here!" I said as I gave him the massive ten-meter-big octopus and the Ice Giant alone began to cut it off into pieces with a smile on his face, licking his lips.

"Miranda, can you grill these fishes?" asked Benladann.

"Huh? Uwah! T-Those are gargantuan!" said Miranda.

The tuna-like fishes we caught were around ten-meter big each, not so big!

"Fine, okay, leave it to me..." she sighed, carrying both fishes with her hands without any issues despite their size.

"Oho! I love fish! Can I get a bite?" asked Belle playfully.

"Back off you vixen! They're for my beloved Benladann and Drake!" said Miranda, as she called us beloved for some reason, something she had not done before.

"Alright, let's go!"

We moved back to Fuyu as we began to pick up all sorts of fruits, then we grabbed a big bowl of cream, and even some sugar and jam made out of boiling fruits with sugar, and we were ready.

Time to make some homemade ice cream!
