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

Chapter 1044: Rose Princess’ Visit ②

Checking the contents of the hummingbird Fate-san sent me, I made a note in my schedule book. Fate-san seemed to be quite enthusiastic about the trip, and we were in the process of arranging our schedule.

When I compared the convenient dates that Fate-san sent me with the dates that I have available in my schedule…… Hmmm, I want to avoid having it on New Year’s day, when the God Realm as a whole is busy, so let’s plan to have our date around the end of the year.

It’s the 14th Day of the Heaven month, so 10 days from now, around the 24th, would be convenient for me and Fate-san. However, if we want to do it by the end of this year, it may be quite abrupt, so I’ll have to ask Chris-san before contacting Fate-san.

Thereupon, when I contacted Chris-san via hummingbird, she said it wouldn’t be a problem, so I’ll write another letter and send it to her. Hummingbird is indeed convenient, but it doesn’t have a feature of saving previous letters into tangible documents, so formal communication is still done by letters.

The letter to Chris, an Emperor, is quite difficult since I need to keep in mind etiquette and other such matters, so I would need to ask Illness-san to help me write it for me later.

Now then, I guess “I have nothing more planned for today”…… It was only about 2 o’clock in the afternoon though, so I suppose I’ll go to a bookstore. I’ve been wanting to get some more tourist magazines, so this would be the perfect time to do it.

As I had such thoughts in mind, I lightly prepared myself and walked out of the room, when I saw Nebula flying towards me.

[Milord~~]

[Unnn?]

[You have a visitor. A woman with bright blond hair who seems to be Spirit, wearing a dress with rose decorations. She has a rather shy personality…… Do you happen to know of her?]

[Is that Rosemary-san? Eh? She came now?]

[Yes! She seemed to be interested in the garden, so she is currently waiting for you to visit the garden.]

The characteristics Nebula mentioned, that would definitely be Rosemary-san but…… “Why is Rosemary-san here?”

Arehh? Did I get the day wrong? A- Anyway, I didn’t want to keep her waiting, so I headed for the garden.

[Thank you, Nebula. Also, if you don’t mind, could you ask Illness-san to prepare some tea for us?]

[Yes! Should I have her take it to the terrace in the garden?]

[Unnn, that would be great.]

[Understood. Please leave it to me!!!]

[Thank you, I’m counting on you then.]

After giving Nebula a quick pat on the head, I started walking quickly towards the garden. At the same time, I took out my favorite schedule book from my magic box and checked it.

H- Hmmm…… The recorded date written in my schedule book really was as I had remembered, but it could be that I made a mistake when I wrote it.

[……Alice, I just want to make sure……]

[……”Your schedule with her is tomorrow”.]

As I walked along the corridor, I called out to Alice, who knew what I wanted to ask and responded right away.

[The date on the hummingbird sent by Rosemary-san was on the 15th Day of the Heaven month, 2:00 pm…… which is tomorrow.]

[As I thought! Thank goodness, I really wasn’t mistaken……]

[It’s more likely that Rosemary-san got nervous and got the day wrong. It’s hard to imagine that she visited for another reason at this time……]

I’m relieved to hear Alice’s words for the time being. Yes, I did schedule to meet up with Rosemary-san. I had heard that she was going to visit to thank me for giving her the Eternal Flower at the White God Festival, and we had also exchanged messages via hummingbird.

However, that would be tomorrow. Rosemary-san is extremely afraid of strangers, and I knew it would be impossible for her to talk to the gatekeeper of Lilia-san’s mansion, so I planned to get out toward the garden and meet up with her…… but I hadn’t expected that she would come a day early.

Rather, I’m surprised that Nebula was able to recognize Rosemary-san as a visitor. This should be the first time they’ve met each other…… Well, Nebula is a very talented person, so she must have been able to communicate with her in some way.

As I was thinking about this, I reached the garden and immediately noticed Rosemary-san looking at the flower beds.

[Rosemary-san, I’m sorry. I hope I didn’t keep you waiting too long?]

[……Ahh, Kaito-kun…… N- No, it’s okay. I’m sorry for the sudden visit.]

When I called out to her, Rosemary-san spoke to me in a very small voice…… soft enough that I would really be unable to hear her if I don’t carefully listen.

For the time being, it’s unlikely, but it’s not impossible that she’s come to visit me for another matter…… but what exactly is her business today?

[E- Errr, like I said, I came to thank you for the other day.]

[…………………]

As expected, it seems like she really got the date wrong.

Hmmm…… I guess there really wouldn’t be any point in pointing this out huh? Today’s matter doesn’t involve anyone else, so it’s just a personal appointment between Rosemary-san and I.

Fortunately, I don’t have any more plans today, so it isn’t really a problem. There’s also no need to embarrass Rosemary-san by pointing it out.

[I’m sorry, I was writing a letter, so it took me some time to get here.]

[N- No. Don’t worry about it, I was just looking at your beautiful garden…… It was quite fun.]

[I’m glad if that’s the case then. Ahh, it’s troublesome talking while standing around here, so why don’t we have a seat on the terrace over there?]

Saying this with a smile, I led Rosemary-san to the terrace where she could see the garden.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……I feel like Rosemary had a very high heroine power.]

? ? ? : [Timid characters in itself were quite rare after all. There are indeed girls like Hina-san, who look cheerful and energetic on the surface, but is mentally fragile, but this would be the first time we see someone who’s clearly the timid type~~]
