Aftermath: Raikou Shows Her True Colors [Womb Realm Edition]

We did it! At last, we managed to take first place.

This makes all the time we spent racing and digging worthwhile!

Hurray, we did it! ...Hm? Hang on.

As shadow prefects, is it okay for us to celebrate this?

As long as we worked hard to achieve this, I don't see the harm in being happy about it.

There you have it. Thank you so much for cheering us on, Master.

Thank you!

Indeed, our task is complete.

How wonderful. With that foreign goddess's scheme foiled, we have succeeded at keeping Chaldea decent.

I am so relieved. If her scheme had succeeded...

There would have been a sumptuous feast that would have been sure to destroy any sense of decency in Chaldea, and this summer "event" would have devolved into something unfit for any to witness.

Fortunately, that never came to pass. What a truly wonderful turn of events.

You have my thanks, Monk Sanzang. I could not have done this without you.

Huh? Is that why we were doing this?

I could've sworn it was because things would've been really bad if the Bull of Heaven thing had been completed.

Oh well. One thing's for sure: our trip together was never dull!

Sure, I may never have found out what the teachings of the Buddha were, nor ever saw much sign of the gods' protection outside of battle!

But I did get to see that thing of Indra's with your Noble Phantasm! I never would've thought it'd be like that!

Indeed, that was why I materialized as a Lancer. Hehe. Hehehe.

At any rate, I gotta say...

I haven't been on such an intense horse ride, or such a crazy prison break in a long time!

It really brought back memories of Tianzhu. Plus White Dragon was there too!

I am so glad to see you smiling as well, venerable monk. You have reformed admirably.

Oh yes, Kyogoku performed admirably as well. I must go down to the underground stable and give him a good bath.

Oh, but first...

First of all...!

...It is time to say goodbye to this jet-black sailor uniform!

You're taking off your clothes just like that!?

Wh-what!? Why!? Whatever happened to defending Chaldea's public decency as the shadow prefect?

Why...? Because that's done for now!

It is!?

As summer isn't over, our work is not complete. In time, autumn will come, and everyone will regain their senses.

But until that happens, our battle as prefects to defend public decency will continue. However...

"However"?

The fact that we have participated in the foreign goddess's competition from start to finish means that we shadow prefects have just completed a long stint of work.

And what comes after work?

Umm... Let me think...

Oh, I've got it! A break!

Exactly. I knew you would understand, venerable monk. That is why I must now take a summer break.

Naturally, summer is very hot. In order to endure the heat, one must take care to dress lightly.

And when it comes to dressing lightly...in this day and age, we have swimsuits like this.

This one is very functional and... Perhaps "healthy" is the best way to describe it? It's very easy to move around in, as there's nothing to get in your way.

It is truly a wonderful thing: perfect for a break. In fact, I should show Master and Kintoki how nice it is!

... ...

I see.

Wait, hang on. Are you going out in the hall dressed like that?

Why yes. Ahh, I can't wait to see how my precious children react.

Ah, they are so innocent, they even worry about the length of a skirt's hem! This is sure to make them turn positively crimson...

Waaait! Hold it! How does that have anything to do with what you were talking about before!?

That outfit would be one thing at the beach, but this is Chaldea! Wh-why would you disturb its public decency of your own accord, Head Prefect!?

Whatever happened to shamelessness!? Or executing those who threaten public decency!?

Oh, that? Well, now that we're on break...what if we just agreed to look the other way?

Oh, okay. Well, I guess that's

Hooold it! Look the other way!? Seriously!?

What were you so upset about in the first place!? What was this whole shadow prefect thing even about!?

What else?

...I was just swatting away the insects buzzing around my children!

Whoa! I figured it was something like that, but I still can't believe you just came out and said it! W-wait, get back here! Something tells me I shouldn't let you run around like that!

Unacceptable! Absolutely unacceptable! At the very least, I can't let you out into the hall dressed that way!

...So much for that.

She just opened the sliding door and went right out into the hallway in that outfit! Are you kidding me!?

Even I wish to romp and frolic at times! Please, Monk Sanzang, I hope you will understand!

Well, I can definitely understand how you feel, but... Hey, I can't hear her footsteps anymore! Where did she go!?

G-get back here! Waaait!
