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

ChapterC.1686: Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ⑧

[I want you to stay here until things settle down! Young Lilia has far more experience than I do, so I would like to ask you for advice when I have to deal with unforeseen circumstances. I will thank you again for this later, so please!]

In this world, it is Lilia who has experienced the most stomach aches under the influence of Kaito, and Laguna wants to make use of that experience.

Her sharpened intuition told her that there was no way things would end peacefully.

[Hahaha, well, just give it up, Duchess Lilia. Laguna is very forceful at times like this. Even I got hounded by her like that…… Good gracious, I suppose it can’t be helped that Shallow Vernal-sama is coming to the festival. It’s highly unlikely that Shallow Vernal-sama would get injured or anything like that, but just in case, if she were to experience any unpleasantries, a mere apology from Laguna wouldn’t suffice.]

[I think we’ll be fine in that regard. Kaito-san is with her, and if, by any chance, Shallow Vernal-sama were to experience any unpleasantness due to our side, the Gods who couldn’t prevent such a thing from happening would likely feel responsible more than we do. In fact, as is the case in the previous incident, the Gods would act promptly, so it’s highly unlikely that we will have to take any action ourselves, don’t you think?]

[I see. Indeed, although we may suffer from stomachaches due to post-incident reports, if the Gods handle the response, we can breathe a little easier……]

Hearing Lilia’s response with a wry smile to Fors, who had been similarly recruited like that, Laguna nodded her head in understanding before her shoulders lightly relaxed.

Lunamaria, who was watching their exchange from some distance away, calls out to the nearby Sieglinde, who has a subtle, indescribable expression on her face.

[……From my experience though, when Lili gets optimistic, things won’t turn out well……]

[Hmmm. I can certainly understand Luna’s concern…… but with this current line-up, how can the situation get even worse?]

Lunamaria sensed the atmosphere was getting worse, but when asked how she thought the situation would deteriorate further, just as Sieglinde had said, she couldn’t come up with an answer.

As an exceptionally talented king, Laguna vigorously took command, and the Gods were stationed throughout the Royal Capital to respond in any situation immediately.

Unforeseen circumstances couldn’t possibly occur beyond what had already occurred…… is what they had believed.

However, such a naive assumption was shattered by Laguna’s men, who rushed into the office immediately afterwards.

[Your Majesty! It’s a disaster!]

[What is it? What happened?]

[With Shallow Vernal-sama coming to the Human Realm, she deemed it necessary to say a few words of greeting, so Founder-sama had apparently decided to come here!]

[Huh!? N- Now!?]

[Yes. Ahh, but she apparently only intended to give her greetings to Shallow Vernal-sama and won’t be participating in anything else, so greeting her is apparently unnecessary.]

[Like hell we can do that!!! Rather, when she speaks of coming to greet Shallow Vernal-sama, we must also consider Shallow Vernal-sama’s side and confirm this matter with the Gods……]

Although Founder Olivia is a being similar to the Gods, she is treated differently from the Gods and is not under the command of any of the Supreme Gods, so she has not been summoned for this situation.

However, as a deep believer of Shallow Vernal, not coming to greet Shallow Vernal on this occasion when she visits the Human World is an option that doesn’t exist, so she decided to go to the venue of her own accord and come give her greetings.

Furthermore, it goes without saying that for her, who had never left the Friendship City, her visit to the Founding Festival was an unprecedented event in history.

[……Well then, I think it’s time for me to go to the waiting room……]

[Whoa there, you’re not getting away, young Lilia…… Come on, let’s get through this difficult time together.]

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [As expected, when Kaito or Lilia gets optimistic, things would start backfiring…… and if there’s just one more person who gets optimistic with them, something will happen…… If I were to liken it to something, that would be the Three Musketeers of Optimism Flags.]

? ? ? : [……No, rather than a random insert, aren’t you the third musketeer?]

Serious-senpai : [……Eh?]
