[Absolute Only-Me King's Game] Something’s Off About the King's Game Started By My Childhood Friend Beauties With Me. A Story of Endlessly Fun Times with Girls Whose Personal Boundaries Keeps Going Off the Rails! - Chapter 37

Chapter 37

After the holiday picnic, we gathered in my room as usual.

With the window curtains drawn tight, the quiet outside world fades, creating our own secret space. On the desk are snacks and juice. And, of course, the familiar chopsticks.

…Yes, the ninth round of our “Absolute Only-Me King Game” was about to begin.

But its start came with an unexpected twist, hinting that tonight’s game would be an exceptionally long one.

※

With a rattle, the bathroom door slides open, and a wave of steam escapes.

This is my house’s bathroom. A standard home system bath, average in size… plenty for me alone, but with four of us, it’s undeniably cramped.

Yet, despite that—

“““King Reiji-kun!♡♡♡”””

The now-familiar chant echoes through the bathroom.

As expected, I’m the king again. But what’s different this time is the setting: the bathroom.

And everyone’s in swimsuits.

Anna wears an aqua frilled bikini, Fuwari a pink ribboned one-piece, and Suzune a yellow sporty type. Together, their vibrant colors make the bathroom feel like a dazzling stage, like a traffic light in full glow.

Unlike the uniform bikinis from last time, each has chosen a swimsuit matching their personality for this bath time.

…Honestly, my bathroom has never looked this radiant in my entire life.

Sure, we bathed together as kids.

But the house has been renovated since then, made a bit bigger.

Still, it’s way too small for four teenagers, nearly done with puberty, to cram into.

The ninth round of the Absolute Only-Me King Game, kicked off during a sleepover.

Anna, who drew the Main Wife lot, dropped a bombshell.

“Bath-time service showdown!~~♪”

Maybe spurred by Suzune’s high energy, Anna’s excitement skyrocketed.

And so, we ended up in swimsuits for another bath session.

But unlike Fuwari’s spacious bath at her place, this is just a regular home tub.

“Okay, okay! Rei-kun’s back is Anna’s job!”

“Fuwari will~ wash Reiji-kun’s arms~”

“Then Suzune will take responsibility for Reiji-kun’s chest!”

Hold on.

Three people tackling one guy at once? That’s not a division of roles anymore!

“W-Wait, calm down, you guys! All at once is—”

“It’s fine, it’s fine, Rei-kun, just leave it to us!♡”

“Yeah~ We’ll take care of everything~”

“Suzune will serve with all her might… But, Reiji-kun, don’t make weird noises! It’ll make Suzune embarrassed too!”

“Who’s making noises!? Hmph!”

It’s hopeless. Telling these three to calm down is pointless!

My youthful volcano is about to erupt into a magma burst.

Calm down. I’ve seen worse swimsuits last time, right?

I’m okay. I can still fight.

“Then, starting with the back!”

Anna lathers a sponge and presses it against my back.

“Eek!? C-Cold!”

“Rei-kun, ticklish? But it feels good, right?”

Anna slides the sponge firmly. Each move makes her aqua frills jiggle, catching the corner of my eye.

“…Anna-chan’s hogging all the fun~ Fuwari’s turn~”

Fuwari wraps my arm with her hands, gently tracing with her fingertips to spread the suds.

“Wow… Reiji-kun’s arms are so firm♡ It’s kinda thrilling~”

“I-If that’s the case, Suzune can too…! Hiyah!”

Suzune presses a sponge to my chest, scrubbing vigorously.

But—her enthusiasm is so intense, it feels like I’m being waxed like a car.

“Ow!? Hey, Suzune! You’re scrubbing too hard, you’ll scrape me!”

“D-Don’t say weird things! Suzune is doing this seriously!”

Her face flushes red, but she doesn’t stop. It’s her closet-perv version of full effort.

Four of us are already crammed into this tiny bathroom.

It’s less washing and more like everyone’s plastered against me.

Anna’s soft touch occasionally presses against my back,

Fuwari’s massive frame and chest weigh heavily on my right arm,

And Suzune, face beet red, scrubs my chest from the front.

—No high school boy’s rationality could survive this.

“Rei-kun, relax your shoulders~ Anna’s gonna make you all clean.”

“Reiji-kun… Doing this, Fuwari feels like a wife~”

“R-Reiji-kun… D-Don’t stare too much! Suzune’s trying so hard…! Guhi!”

Hey, Suzune, you totally laughed to cover that up.

“Alright, next… Rei-kun’s legs!”

“I’ll help~”

“Suzune too… Here’s a lap-pillow wash!”

Anna lifts my leg, Fuwari washes it with a soft hug, and Suzune, for some reason, rests my foot on her lap to scrub.

The squishy sensation feels good. Everything feels good.

No… Settle down, my brother! It’s not time to get excited yet!

“Hey, wait! I can’t move anymore!”

“Rei-kun, give up!♡”

“Yup, giving up’s the best~”

“…Hehe, Reiji-kun’s so defenseless right now… Suzune feels a bit superior.”

I’m completely surrounded.

Back, arms, chest, legs… Serviced from all directions by my childhood friends—what kind of torture—no, reward—is this?

“And now, the grand finale… Washing your hair!”

“Fuwari’s gonna make Reiji-kun’s hair all fluffy~”

“Suzune will… handle the lathering!”

All three attack my head with shampoo, scrubbing wildly.

Not just hands—they press in with arms and bodies, practically lathering with their whole selves.

“Hey! My head! It’s getting crushed from three sides!”

“It’s fine, it’s fun!”

“Wow… Reiji-kun’s starting to smell nice~”

“Uhehe… Suzune’s getting dizzy from Reiji-kun’s scent…”

Laughter and bubbles fill the bathroom, and my rationality is a flickering flame.

And so—

The ninth round of the King Game became an unprecedented (second-time) “all-out bath service session,” turning my bathroom into a battlefield.

What’s the next order? Just thinking about it sends shivers down my spine.

And, uh, another part of me is shivering too… Never mind.

By the way, I noticed all three’s gazes were oddly focused on one spot… but I didn’t point it out.

The magma carnival was avoided, but the swimsuit tent’s peak was thoroughly stared at, fully exposed.

※

Finally, the “service washing” session, leaving me covered in bubbles, is over.

We rinse off in the tub, all refreshed… or so I’d like to say, but my heart’s still pounding.

And, yeah, another part’s pounding too. Nearly erupted there.

That was close.

—Anyway, time to escape the bathroom.

“Phew… That was cramped.”

“But fun, right, Rei-kun?”

Anna spreads a towel and yanks it over my head.

“Hey, wai—! Gwah!”

My hair’s vigorously toweled dry.

“Haha, Rei-kun, you look like a dog!”

Fuwari spreads another towel, draping it over my back.

“Reiji-kun, you can’t catch a cold~ Mama’s gonna dry you all up~”

Sudden mama play. She wipes gently, pressing close, enveloping me.

…Hey, I’m feeling your body heat more than the towel!

“Then… Suzune will do Reiji-kun’s chest!”

Suzune declares boldly, thrusting out a yellow towel.

She scrubs my chest, face red, eyes darting.

“R-Reiji-kun’s chest… It’s so firm… Haah, uhehe.”

“Suzune, stop that weird laugh!”

And your breathing’s kinda like an old man’s.

“Hey, Anna-chan, hogging Reiji-kun’s head is unfair!”

“Huh? Then Fuwari-chan, let go of his back~”

“Th-Then Suzune… W-Won’t let go either!”

Aqua, red, and yellow towels take turns assaulting my body.

—This isn’t drying; it’s a towel relay torment!

Even the towels are traffic-light themed. How far are they taking this?

“Hey, all three of you! I’m just one guy, so take turns—”

“No waiting!”

“Fuwari too~”

“Suzune… I-I have to try now, or I’ll lose!”

Anna snaps back, Fuwari follows, and Suzune clings.

I feel more pressure than in the bathroom. Being toweled should refresh me, but it’s killing my heart.

As the towel battle rages—

“Whoa!”

Anna loses balance, collapsing onto my chest.

“Anna!?”

“…Haha… Rei-kun’s chest… so close.”

Anna’s cheeks flush as she looks up, wet hair clinging seductively to her skin.

“…Unfair.”

Fuwari glares at Anna with a pout.

“Me~ too~♡”

She hugs my back tightly, wiping with her chest.

“Th-Then Suzune too!”

Suzune, panicking, wraps around my waist, scrubbing with her yellow towel.

“Eek!? Suzune, where are you touching!”

“N-No! Suzune’s just wiping your waist! Guhihi…”

—Total chaos, losing all meaning of towels.

Finally dried, I slump onto a chair in the changing room, exhausted like I’ve run a marathon.

But the three are still full of energy.

“Rei-kun, I’ll dry your hair!”

“I’ll help~”

“Suzune will… handle the air flow!”

Now, hairdryer blasts hit me from three directions.

It’s oddly warm, with their voices overlapping near my ears.

“Rei-kun, pick me first today, okay?♡”

“Reiji-kun, are you watching Fuwari~?”

“R-Reiji-kun… Suzune won’t lose either!”

Even after the bath, I’m still surrounded and toyed with by the three.
