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

Chapter 1141 – Harmonic Symphony Part 2 ①

The area that Ariel-san was in charge of had a slightly unusual shape. First, the ground was color-coded into multiple colors. There is a red area, a blue area…… and that central area that had an elevated platform.

Not only that, but in that central area surrounded by color-coded areas, there was another elevated platform.

[……Fumu, I can tell that they are trying to make something elaborate, but I can’t see their intentions at the moment. If we’re going to dance on that platform, the number of people who can dance is too small for a participatory type of dance.]

[Indeed, I can tell that they had some ideas in mind by using some kind of color-coding, but I can’t imagine what the event would be like.]

As I looked around the venue, I agreed with Frea-san’s words. Just at that moment, someone who seemed to be one of the World King’s subordinates approached us.

[You’re Miyama Kaito-sama’s group, right? Ariel-sama asked me to guide everyone……]

[Ahh, yes. I understand. We’ll be in your care.]

Somehow, with all these members in our group, I was the one she called out, as if I’m their representative. I feel a little uncomfortable. No, of course, in theory, I understand why she called out to me, who is good friends with Lillywood-san, as the others’ representative.

It’s just, somehow, when I’m acting with the strong members of the mansion, I have this strong impression that Lilia-san is the representative of our group. Perhaps, it’s because I felt like Lilia-san was our representative in the festivals we attended back then like the Sacred Tree Festival.

I had told Ariel-san in advance through a hummingbird that I wanted to introduce Sieg-san and the others to her. Guided by Lillywood-san’s subordinate, we moved to the backstage area, or rather, an area located behind the venue.

This place seemed like a waiting room for Ariel-san and her subordinates to prepare for the event, just like those waiting rooms at live concerts I had seen on TV.

In one corner, where the most space was taken, there was Ariel-san wearing a casual street dance outfit, perhaps something prepared for occasions like this, instead of her usual dancer costume.

[I bid you welcome for your visit…… In other words, thank you for coming. Our reunion makes me rejoice…… In other words, I’m happy to see you again, Kaito.]

[Hello, Ariel-san. I’m sorry for barging in on you today when you’re so busy.]

[No problem…… In other words, don’t worry about it.]

[Is your outfit for the presentation? It has a different vibe from your usual outfit, but it looks great on you.]

At first glance, it looked like she was just dressed casually, but upon closer inspection, I could see that some of them were made of material that reflects light, or perhaps, they were something that glittered when light hit them.

I feel like it was an outfit…… that was designed to look good, shining more beautifully when illuminated by a spotlight.

[Joyful words…… In other words, hearing you say that makes me happy. Unknown faces…… In other words, these must be the people you mentioned in the hummingbird. Self-introduction…… In other words, I’m Ariel, nice to meet you.]

As I had informed her beforehand via hummingbird, the greetings between Ariel-san and everyone proceeded smoothly. Well, Ariel-san has a unique way of speaking, but she’s basically a kind and nice person, so there was no problem at all regarding that area.

She was also willing to sign the autograph that Sieg-san wanted…… Seriously, how should I say this…… The Seven Princesses are very reassuring…… I won’t be naming anyone here, but they’re very different from the executives of a certain camp.

[Hello, Ariel.]

[Gratitude for coming every time…… In other words, you’ve come this time again, Eingana, thank you.]

[Your presentations are always very elaborate, so I always look forward to it.]

[Respond to your expectations…… In other words, I’ll do my best not to disappoint you. One question…… In other words, by the way, there’s one thing I’ve been wondering about…… First visit…… In other words, I feel like this is the first time Nidzveld has attended. Apologies for misunderstanding…… In other words, I’m sorry if you had come earlier and I just hadn’t seen you.]

[No, as you had guessed, this is indeed my first time attending.]

As they are both executives of the Six Kings, I guess they really would be in contact with each other. Since Eingana-san participates in the Harmonic Symphony every time, it seems like she’s especially close to her.

In contrast, as she doesn’t have much of an impression of coming to the Harmonic Symphony, it seemed like Ariel-san was curious about Frea-san’s attendance.

[I had been thinking of participating if I had the chance, but it’s rather difficult to do so without that chance, so I had not visited the event until now. This time, I just happened to be invited by Eingana, so I decided to take this chance to visit.]

[Comprehend…… In other words, I see, so that’s how it is. Welcome…… In other words, whatever the reason may be, I’m glad you’re here.]

[Yeah, I’ll look forward to seeing Ariel’s presentation.]

[Understood…… In other words, alright, look forward to it.]

After exchanging a few words with Frea-san, Ariel-san looked as if she had suddenly come up with an idea.

[Recall…… In other words, come to think of it, two performances ago, Megiddo-sama came.]

[Eh? Megiddo-san did?]

[Occasional visit…… In other words, it’s not every time, but he sometimes comes to the Harmonic Symphony.]

[I- I see.]

……H- Hmmm, no, I could somehow understand that. Megiddo-san is someone who is also quite knowledgeable about stuff like art. I could understand that but…… it’s just, with that appearance of his, seeing him in a place like this is just indescribably strange.

……Also, why does Lilia-san…… have that distant look in her eyes, “as if she was already convinced that we were going to meet him”……
