Chapter 18 - Chapter : 18 : Round 11-12.4 :Make Shin Blush! : Part : 5

Round 11 : Bikini!?

The moment Mei-chan blew her whistle, reality broke.

The lights dimmed.

A pink spotlight dropped from the ceiling.

Sparkles swirled.

And then—POOF.

Both Yuki and Aiko were suddenly in bikinis.

---

Yuki's Bikini Crisis

Yuki blinked.

Once.

Twice.

Then he screamed.

"W-W-WHA—?! WHY AM I IN A BIKINI?!"

His voice cracked three times as he clutched his chest with both arms and crouched down in embarrassment.

His tiny, string bikini barely covered anything.

The top slid a little too easily over his soft, girly chest, and the bottom felt like a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen.

His thighs were completely exposed. His stomach was smooth. His face was on fire.

"I—I'M A BOY!!"

The audience exploded.

Boys in the back:

"I'm going to hell smiling."

"This is better than any anime I've watched this week."

"I skipped today and now I want to die." Said someone watching live from home.

"TAKE PICTURES! QUICK!"

Girls in the crowd:

"Yuki-chan is too cute! Look at those legs!"

"I'm questioning my sexuality."

"That shy pose is criminal."

Yuki curled up, shaking.

"This is illegal… I-I didn't consent to this!"

Mei-chan twirled her whistle. "Too bad! Magical Girl Mei makes the rules now!"

Aiko's Bikini Reveal

Aiko looked down at herself.

She wore a sleek, blue two-piece bikini. Tasteful but flirty. Glittery. With a little bow between her chest.

She adjusted her top calmly. "Huh. Nice fit."

She gave the crowd a peace sign.

Boys in the back:

"Aiko-sama!!"

"STEP on me!!"

"I feel blessed today."

Aiko struck a light pose. One hip popped. A wink. Then she slowly turned for the crowd. Nothing lewd—just confidence.

"Hope you losers brought phones," she smirked. "Cause I look amazing."

Yuki glared, red-faced.

"W-Why are you okay with this?!"

Aiko shrugged. "Shin's seen me in a bikini a dozen times. This is just summer nostalgia."

---

Yuki's Attempt:

Still flustered and trembling, Yuki turned to Shin.

He looked like a bashful bunny wrapped in shame and sparkles.

He stepped forward, shyly.

The bikini barely hanging onto him, his arms crossed over his chest, legs pressed together, trying to hide.

He looked up at Shin with huge, watery eyes and whispered—

"…Senpai, does this look okay…?"

Shin.exe stopped working.

The blush hit his ears first.

Then his cheeks.

Then his neck.

Then his soul.

He turned away, coughing violently.

"W-What kind of attack was that?! Don't do that in public!"

Mei-chan whistled. "BLUSH CONFIRMED! Point to Yuki!"

Yuki collapsed in shame. "Kill me…"

---

Aiko's Turn:

Aiko walked over with her usual confidence.

She flipped her hair.

"Alright, I know what I'm doing."

She stepped close to Shin, hands on hips, chest slightly out.

"Hey," she said smoothly, "remember Okinawa? When you dropped your popsicle and I gave you mine?"

Shin blinked. "Yeah…?"

"You blushed then too. Wanna try again?" she whispered, leaning in just a little.

Shin looked away, a faint pink creeping into his face.

Not enough.

Aiko growled. "Tch. You're immune to Bikini Aiko now."

She suddenly pulled a ribbon from her hair and dropped to one knee, holding it out like a ring.

"Marry me, you idiot."

The crowd lost their minds.

Mei-chan blew the whistle.

"Faint blush detected! Half point to Aiko!"

---

Meanwhile…

Yuki still hadn't moved.

He sat on the floor, legs tucked, arms folded, shaking.

His cheeks glowed. His lips trembled.

"B-Bikini… w-why bikini…"

Someone in the crowd whispered,

"He's so cute I forgot he's a boy."

---

Shin's Thought:

If it had been Ai in that bikini… I might've passed out.

He shook his head violently.

Focus. You're judging!

---

Score Update:

Yuki – 10.5

Aiko – 8.5

Round 12: Cosplay Showdown!

As soon as Round 12 was announced, Mei-chan spun mid-air with a dramatic pose, her shiny costume somehow sparkling even more than before.

"Welcome to the Cosplay Showdown! Where logic dies and fanservice rules!" she beamed, flexing her arms and striking another skin-revealing pose.

Yuki blinked. "Wait… five sub-rounds?! Isn't that a bit much?"

Mei-chan winked. "Oh this? This isn't about the competition anymore. It's for the fans. Obviously."

The crowd roared.

"YES MA'AM!"

"WE LOVE YOU, MEI-CHAN!"

"MORE COSTUMES! MORE SUFFERING!"

---

Sub-Round 12.1: Bunny Suit

Yuki appeared first.

He walked out reluctantly in a classic black bunny suit. Tight leotard, white puffball tail, silky black ears on his head, and black fishnet stockings climbing up his porcelain thighs. His cheeks burned like fire.

He immediately folded in on himself, trying to hide his legs and chest.

"I'm a boy…" he whispered.

Didn't matter.

The crowd collectively lost their souls.

One girl fainted.

Two boys started weeping.

Shin covered his mouth.

"W-Why does he look that good in it?" he muttered.

Then Aiko strutted out confidently in her own red bunny suit—thighs on full display, heels clicking, her posture proud.

She winked at the audience. "What's wrong, Yuki-Kun? You scared?"

She spun and blew a kiss at Shin.

The crowd HOWLED.

But Shin didn't even flinch.

"…I've seen her wear worse."

Point: Yuki.

---

Yuki: 10.5 (1)

Aiko: 8.5 (0)

---

Sub-Round 12.2: Cat Maid

Yuki stumbled out—this time in a black cat maid outfit. Short frilly skirt, thigh-highs, bell collar, lacy gloves, and ears that twitched as he shyly meowed.

"M-M-Master Shin… your tea is ready…"

Shin literally made a noise.

Like a soft choking gasp.

Like someone trying not to burst.

His face was red.

Meanwhile, Aiko entered in the exact same outfit, but hers was tighter and flashier. Her tail swayed as she bent forward playfully.

"Nya~ Don't ignore me, Master~ I've been a naughty kitty."

Half the boys in the audience died.

Even Mei-chan had to clap.

But Shin raised a brow. "…You wore that at the last class sleepover, remember?"

Aiko's smirk twitched.

"…Tch."

Point: Yuki.

---

Score So Far

Yuki: 10.5 (2)

Aiko: 8.5 (0)

Sub-Round 12.3: Nurse Cosplay

Mei-chan threw her clipboard in the air. "SUB-ROUND THREE, NURSE THEME!"

With a dramatic sparkle and magical-girl transformation sequence (for no reason), both Yuki and Aiko were dressed in nurse outfits before they could protest.

---

Yuki's Turn

Yuki stepped out hesitantly in a tight white nurse dress, way too short to be regulation. A little red cross badge was pinned to his chest. His long sleeves were folded neatly, and a white cap sat on his soft silver hair. He looked like a blushing angel of health.

His pale thighs peeked out from beneath the hem, and his socks were replaced by white thigh-highs with heart-shaped clips. He held a plastic syringe and tiptoed nervously toward Shin, his voice barely above a whisper.

"M-Mister Shin… you've got a fever. L-Let me take care of you…"

He leaned close, placing a hand on Shin's forehead gently.

Shin's pupils dilated.

A few gasps escaped the audience—mostly the girls, actually.

One boy screamed, "I WANNA GET SICK TOO!!"

Yuki held out the syringe with both hands, clutching it against his chest.

"I-I'll inject you with… affection…"

Shin covered his face with one hand.

His ears were burning.

---

Aiko's Turn

Then came Aiko.

Her nurse outfit was red, tight, and aggressively short, showing way more leg. She had her hair tied up in little twintails and carried a stethoscope she playfully let dangle between her fingers.

She strolled over to Shin and straddled the armrest of his chair.

"Patient-kun~ you've been very naughty… not taking your medicine~" she whispered directly into his ear.

She clicked the stethoscope onto his chest, smirking. "Your heart's racing."

Shin laughed, but it was awkward and flustered, not genuine.

"You wore this to that café event, remember?" he said, trying to hide behind Yuki's nurse hat.

Aiko blinked.

"…Damn it."

---

Crowd Reaction:

Boys: "GOD BLESS COSPLAY!"

Girls: "Yuki's the cutest nurse ever."

Mei-chan: "I think I caught something watching this. Nurse Yuki, help~"

---

Point: Yuki (again!)

---

Yuki: 10.5 (3)

Aiko: 8.5 (0)

---

Sub-Round 12.4: Succubus!

Mei-chan raised her wand. "Sub-round 11.4! Today's theme is… SUCCUBUS!"

A dramatic POOF! of pink sparkles filled the air.

---

Yuki's Reaction

The moment the magic took effect, Yuki's soul visibly left his body.

He looked down at himself—now wearing a scandalously short, black leather succubus outfit with red bat wings, thigh-high stockings held by a garter belt, and small black horns atop his fluffy silver hair. A demon tail with a heart tip swished behind him.

Yuki clutched his arms around his chest and screamed, "WHY!? I'M A BOY!!"

His face was beet red. Knees shaking. Almost crying.

Shin's eyes were locked. His lips parted slightly, stunned silent.

Mei-chan leaned in from the side, "For fan service," she whispered with a wink.

Yuki turned his back to the audience, tugging at the edges of the outfit to make it cover more. It didn't work. The leather just hugged tighter.

Despite the panic, he forced himself to walk toward Shin.

"I-I… um… want to… d-drain your… s-soul…"

His voice cracked in the most adorable way possible.

Shin's heart punched his chest from the inside.

"God… help me…" he whispered.

---

Aiko's Turn

Aiko's succubus outfit? Way more daring.

She wore high heels, black leather straps that left almost nothing to the imagination, and translucent mesh with glowing red markings. Her horns curved seductively, and her wings flapped slightly with each sway of her hips.

"I'm your darkest dream, Taa-kun~" she purred, sitting on his lap without hesitation.

The audience gasped. Phones flashed. Several boys passed out. One girl actually fainted from nosebleed.

Aiko leaned close, licking the tip of her finger and tracing it under Shin's chin.

"Should I take your soul~ or your heart first~?"

Shin stuttered a laugh, fully blushing now.

---

Mei-chan's Commentary (Still in magical girl mode)

"I didn't know hell could look this good!! I'm switching allegiances!!"

---

Crowd Reaction

"I can die now."

"I need both of them to haunt my dreams."

"WHY DID I MISS SCHOOL TODAY!?"

---

Point: Both Yuki & Aiko!

Mei-chan throws two stars in the air. "DOUBLE WIN! Because Shin-kun is currently dead inside and out!"

---

Yuki: 10.5 (4)

Aiko: 8.5 (1)
