I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

Chapter 973 - Intermission : Each Place's Night before the Event

The White God Festival was approaching the next day, and people everywhere were talking about it.

In a castle in the Land of Death, in the northernmost part of the Demon Realm, the Death King, Isis, was in a good mood as she was drinking tea.

[You seemed to be in a good mood, Isis-sama?]

[……Unnn…… Tomorrow is the White God Festival…… When I participate in the Festival of Heroes…… I was by myself…… but I have Iris and Polaris with me now…… so I’m really happy.]

When Iris asked this, Isis looked so happy that it could be clearly seen even from the side. Being one of the pinnacles of the Demon Realm, she is invited to not only the Festival of Heroes, but also the founding festivals of the three Human Kingdoms.

But up until now, Isis had no subordinates, and whenever she participated, she was always by herself…… Seeing the other members of the Six Kings participating with their companions always made her feel more lonely.

If she were to be honest, Isis didn’t even like participating in the Festival of Heroes very much. She just participated in it out of obligation, but she always felt depressed attending.

[I’ve also been estranged from such events for a long time, so I’m looking forward to it.]

[It’s fine to look forward to it, but make sure you don’t embarrass yourself as Isis-sama’s subordinate, understand?]

[You’re so stiff, Head-dono.]

But this time, it’s different. The current Isis has two subordinates, and both Iris and Polaris will be accompanying Isis to the White God Festival.

This made Isis very happy, and as the day of the White God Festival approached, her mood was getting better and better, so much that the people around her could tell that she was really looking forward to it.

Seeing such an Isis, Iris and Polaris smiled and sitting at the same table as Isis, they enjoyed chatting with each other over tea.

Around the same time, in a room in the headquarters of the Seditch Magic Tool Trading Company in the Demon Realm, there was a certain person with two guards beside her. The source of this ᴄontent is ɴovᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet

[Listen here, Esteemed Sister Tre! You’re allowed to participate, but you’re not to leave our side!]

[Unn, unnn! I’m looking forward to the festival~~ I wanna visit a lot of stalls~~]

[……Cien.]

[Cento, I don’t think telling her off would be of any use. Let’s just be more careful than usual.]

While Tre happily smiled, Cento and Cien looked at each other with complicated expressions on their faces.

The White God Festival was expected to be very crowded, and it would be difficult for them to find Tre once she got lost. That’s why the two of them hoped that they could just not participate in this festival.

However, the two of them, who had a soft spot for Tre for some reason, were persuaded to allow her to participate in the festival.

[Even though it was our fault for being swept along the flow, just thinking about it makes my stomach hurt.]

[Unnn…… We basically should just walk while holding Esteemed Sister’s hands and never let go…… With the size of the White God Festival, if she slips out of our attention, it’s highly likely that we won’t find her again.]

[I’d like to know if we could ask Esteemed Sister Zwei to keep an eye on her as well……]

[I’d appreciate it if we could, but Esteemed Sister Zwei was apparently working tomorrow and couldn’t attend……]

Even though Tre was feeling cheerful about tomorrow, Cento and Cien were discussing countermeasures for the White God Festival, feeling more anxious and trepid than usual.

Human Realm, in the garden in Kaito’s home, Nebula and Illness were having a final meeting about the renovation of the garden.

[From that area, let’s smooth it out…… It would be a path for visitors to pass……]

[Let’s seeee. Regarding Kaito-sama’s hooooome, I don’t think there will be many visitooooors that would come riding a carriaaaaaage, so I don’t think the path needs to be too laaaaaarge.]

[Yes! Next would be the flower beds, right? So that they won’t be a hindrance when Bellfreed and Lindwurm play, they should be placed around here.]

[Yeeees~~ It looks like this area also was as we arraaaaanged.]

After receiving permission from Kaito to renovate the garden, Nebula and Illness held many meetings to finalize the renovation plan, and it was completed with almost no modifications to be made.

As for executing it, with the two of them, much less a day, they should be able to finish the renovation in less than half a day, and what they’re doing now is just a final confirmation that they can proceed as planned.

[Ahhh~~ We also talked about this befoooore~~ Regarding tea leaaaaves, but considering Kaito-sama’s preferenceeees~~ I think tea leaves in that area is greaaaaat.]

[They’re indeed great! They all make good tea leaves, and they are easy to blend with other teas. Milord likes teas that aren’t too strong, doesn’t he?]

[Yeeeess~~ He prefers simple teas and those with a bit of sweetneeeeess. On the other hand thouuuuuugh, he doesn’t like those with strong flavooooors.]

[I see…… Their tea leaves certainly are great. Their tea has a subtle sweetness even when served without sweeteners, and it goes well with cookies.]

With the meeting about the renovation of the garden over, the two of them read through a book of tea leaves that Illness brought with her, and discussed what they would grow in the garden behind the mansion.

Although they hadn’t known each other for very long, they felt comfortable with each other and became good friends, happily discussing what they thought would make Kaito happy.
