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

Chapter 1494 - Seeking the Possibilities of Baby Castellas ⑩

Kuro apparently decided to ask Olivia-san about the possibilities for baby castellas as well, as she called out to Olivia-san with a bright smile on her face.

[Olivia-chan, what do you think is the best way to pursue new possibilities for baby castellas?]

[……??]

Hearing the words Kuro said to her, Olivia-san clearly didn’t understand what she meant…… The look on her face seemed to ask why would a person even want to pursue such a thing. Well, I know how she feels. If the pinnacle of the Demon Realm suddenly asked you such a thing, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for one to have such an expression on their face.

After Olivia-san remained silent for a while, her expression returned back to normal and she responded.

[……In the first place, I’ve never had baby castellas, so I don’t know what that is, and I’m not particularly interested in them either.]

[What!?]

Hearing these words, Kuro looked truly astonished. She seemed to be shuddering, seemingly having witnessed something unbelievable…… Was it really that surprising? To begin with, didn’t she just say “Olivia-chan eats food?” earlier?

[No way…… For you to have not eaten baby castellas until now, that is…… H- How harsh of a life have you had…… Kuh, I’m sorry for not realizing it!]

[……No…… In the first place, I don’t think baby castellas are something necessary……]

[What are you saying!? Baby castellas are very important! They’re also Shiro’s favorite food!!!]

[Wha!? I- Is that so!?]

Baby castellas are Shiro-san’s favorite food? That’s a new-found information I got there……

(I feel like I’m being outrageously slandered…… What kind of person am I in Kuro’s head?)

Ahh, as I thought, Kuro really was just saying that on her own huh…… A complaint came in from the person herself, but for Olivia-san, a subject involving Shiro-san was a big matter, so she turned to Kuro with a serious expression that was clearly unlike before.

[Unnn, there’s no mistaking that. After all, whenever I have tea with Shiro, Shiro always eats baby castellas.]

Whenever she has tea with Kuro, she always eats baby castellas? When she has tea with me though, baby castellas seldomly…… No, I feel like we’ve only had baby castellas the first time we met. Baby castellas with wasabi in them……

(I mean, isn’t that obvious? Kuro brings them and puts them on the table every time.)

Unnn. Ahh, I see…… Of course, she’d end up always eating baby castellas every time she has tea with Kuro. After all, Kuro is the one who brings them to the table……

However, the rampaging Baby Castella Demon was acting as if such a thing is unrelated to her, as she began talking with her mind completely thinking that Shiro-san’s favorite food is baby castellas.

[……In other words, pursuing the possibilities of baby castellas is in turn good for Shiro!]

[I- I see……]

Then again, because of how diligent and upfront Olivia-san is, she takes Kuro for her word, turning the situation strange. Because of this, I’m getting complaints from Shiro-san in my head.

(Kaito-san, I’d like to complain to Kuro, who only has baby castellas all over her head, so would you mind if I go there as well?)

No, please stop. Seriously…… Putting me, Kuro and Olivia-san aside, Kaori-san’s stomach will die. Also, it’s lunchtime and there are a lot of customers in the restaurant right now, so you appearing would turn into quite a big deal……

[……Kuro, Shiro-san have been voicing her complaints through my mind, asking you not to spread lies……]

[Eh~~ It’s not like I intended to tell any lies…… Unnn? Oh, seems like she’s trying to telepathically connect with my mind too———- Huh?]

It’s just my guess, but Shiro-san just directly talked to Kuro about the same thing she complained to me…… before afterward, she may have said something that provoked Kuro.

Kuro is generally mild-mannered, but she can get quite angry and quarrelsome when it comes to Shiro-san. That certainly is proof that they both acknowledge each other…… but I could clearly feel that the atmosphere around Kuro had changed. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the Noᴠelꜰɪre.nᴇt

[……Kaito-kun, I’m going out for a bit. I’ll be right back……]

[Ahh, unnn. Well, keep things in moderation, okay……]

After seeing off Kuro, who seemed like she was heading out for a fight before teleporting away, I drank some cold water and let out a sigh. Well, after they fought a bit, they should feel refreshed afterward. For the time being, I’m glad Shiro-san didn’t come here directly.

[……Hey, Kaito-kun? Did something happen just now?]

[To put it very simply, Shiro-san…… the God of Creation was about to barge here in this restaurant just now.]

[Can you not nonchalantly say such a scary thing!? You stopped her right!? Seriously, please stop her!!! It would be a disaster for my stomach…… I’m just about to reach my 30s…… I want to take good care of my body……]

[I’m really sorry. Ahh, but errr, from my experience so far…… Ummm, I know someone knowledgeable about stomach medicines, so I’ll ask her about good stomach medicines.]

[Did you just seriously give up!? You were sure that sooner or later, my stomach would be hurt, so you just switched to taking care of the stomachache!?]

Her plea to me sounded really sad, and I really am very sorry…… but thinking about Lilia-san’s past, I couldn’t see a future where we could continue to maintain how it’s like at the moment.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [As expected, Kaito has too many records in his name already, so even he couldn’t be optimistic…… Well, in fact, no matter how hard they try, they can’t avoid the stomach ache in the future…… It feels like Lilia is already bidding her welcome to such a future.]
