Sora and Miyu just needed to be watched from a distance.
But Xiao Hina couldn't be left alone; she was still too young and needed someone to hold her hand.
And that person was naturally Liu Ming.
A group of nine people walked towards the nearby beach.
At this time of day, there were quite a lot of people playing here.
As far as the eye could see, there were people everywhere.
After searching for a short while, the group found a slightly emptier and good spot.
He opened the parasol, spread a cloth mat on the sand, and then took out some drinks and snacks.
A simple resting place was set up.
"Xiao Ming, what do you want to play?" Thor asked happily.
"No, I still have to look after Xiao Hina and the others.
You guys go play, I'll just walk along the beach," Liu Ming thought for a moment and shook his head.
"Oh~" Thor was instantly disappointed.
Suddenly, her eyes caught sight of something special, and they lit up.
She didn't know where she pulled out a bottle of sunscreen, and with an 'I can't do anything with you' attitude, she said, "You'll get sunburned if you don't put this stuff on; humans are truly inferior beings."
Tadokoro Megumi and the others had long grown accustomed to Thor's strange remarks that would pop out from time to time.
Each of them just assumed she was having a bout of chuunibyou and didn't delve deeper.
Only Liu Ming, the person involved, knew that everything Thor said was what she truly thought.
Black lines immediately appeared on his forehead; he was human too, after all.
Thor, however, didn't notice and still looked infatuated.
She wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, looked at Liu Ming, and said, "Xiao Ming, let's put it on quickly."
"Don't do anything else suspicious," Liu Ming glanced at her, warning her.
"Hehe, I won't," Thor's expression was completely opposite to what she said; her silly look had no credibility at all.
But before she could act, the curious Xiao Hina moved.
She directly jumped and sat on Liu Ming's back, almost breaking his old waist as he lay prone.
"Xiao Hina wants to play too!" Xiao Hina clapped her little hands excitedly.
Xiao Hina then mimicked Thor's actions, applying cream all over Liu Ming's back.
"Me too, me too!" Miyu, the mischievous one, also came over to join in.
Liu Ming thus lay comfortably under the parasol, enjoying the girls' ministrations.
Although Tadokoro Megumi and Sora were also a little moved, with their introverted personalities, they couldn't perform such intimate actions in front of everyone.
They could only sort through the items in their backpacks on the other side.
"Hey, Kanna, you can't eat crabs like that!" Tadokoro Megumi suddenly saw Kanna swallowing an entire crab raw, and her face turned pale with fright.
She quickly put down her things and ran over.
But when she pried open Kanna's mouth, she saw nothing.
Could it be that she had already swallowed it? But Kanna didn't look like she was in much discomfort.
Or did I see wrong?
Tadokoro Megumi stood dumbfounded, her face showing a look of questioning life.
"What's wrong, Megumi?" Kanna looked at Tadokoro Megumi strangely.
"No, nothing," Tadokoro Megumi came back to her senses and replied dryly.
After everyone had applied sunscreen, they all became enthusiastic.
"Let's go play in the sea now."
Liu Ming stood up and said to everyone.
"I'll stay here and watch the luggage," Yuta said.
"Aren't you going?" Liu Ming asked strangely.
"I can't swim," Yuta scratched his head and said awkwardly.
"I see, alright then." Learning to swim in the sea was too dangerous, so he didn't suggest it.
"I want to go swimming!" Kanna raised her little hand.
"Hehe, want to have a match?" Thor was full of fighting spirit.
"Hmph, I'll prove that I'm the strongest!" Elma also jumped out.
Their eyes sparkled with fighting intent, and sparks seemed to collide in the air.
Seeing the three of them so eager, Liu Ming didn't stop them.
He pointed to a very small, uninhabited island several kilometers away in the distance.
"Whoever can reach there the fastest, I'll make her a big feast tonight."
"Master, isn't that too far?" Tadokoro Megumi quickly reminded him.
"That's right, it looks several kilometers just by looking at it, it's too far, something might happen," Miyu also stopped being mischievous and said worriedly.
"Kanna is still so young," Sora said with concern.
Seeing their worried expressions, Liu Ming could only comfort them, "Don't underestimate them; you'll know in a moment."
Then, without waiting for them to react, he began to give the signal.
"Three."
"Two."
"One."
"Go!"
The next scene directly made their jaws drop in astonishment.
Was this speed too monstrous? They actually left three shockwaves in the sea.
In a matter of seconds, they had already swum a hundred meters.
"Hmph, I'm the strongest!" Thor glanced at the other two and immediately accelerated.
Elma also refused to lose, sticking closely beside Thor.
Does such non-human speed truly exist?
Tadokoro Megumi and the others couldn't help but look at Liu Ming.
"They're a bit special; you'll find out later," Liu Ming didn't know how to explain.
Everyone nodded and didn't delve deeper.
They had never considered the possibility of non-human species.
They only believed that Thor and the others must have some unknown secrets.
Since the other party didn't want to talk about it, they would respect their privacy.
Then, Sora, Miyu, and Tadokoro Megumi ran off to play in the sea.
Xiao Hina saw them and also wanted to follow.
Liu Ming could only pull her to the edge of the beach, where the water was only about ten centimeters deep.
Even with just that, Xiao Hina was extremely happy.
Her little feet constantly splashed in the seawater, emitting bursts of laughter.
When she got tired of playing, Liu Ming took her back to the resting place and started building sandcastles.
He even put his special skills to use, employing his carving expertise to create magnificent castles.
Xiao Hina stood by, watching, and happily clapped her little hands from time to time.
And when other tourists saw them, they even gathered around, exclaiming in admiration.
