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

Chapter 1166 – Tea Party ②

Other than when Lillywood-san gave her opening speech, the tea party was really free for everyone, and there were no initial tables designated, so as I had declared, I waited at the same table with Jutia-san, Ariel-san and Tir-san, waiting for the event to begin.

[Tir’s looking forward to it~~ The tea Kaitokun-san prepared, Tir wanna drink it now~~.]

[Affirmative…… In other words, I’m also looking forward to it. Anticipation can’t be suppressed…… In other words, I feel like Jutia can’t wait even more than we can.]

Tir-san spoke with a cute smile on her face, while Ariel-san spoke with a gentle smile. I had heard that they are good friends, but this may be the first time I have seen them together.

Just as Ariel-san said, Jutia-san looked a little fidgety as the start time was approaching.

Jutia-san is quite petite, and the way her body fidgeted was quite cute.

While all of that was happening, Lillywood-san appeared from the inner part of the mansion and lightly greeted everyone with Loudspeaker Magic. It was really just a simple greeting, thanking everyone for their hard work at the Harmonic Symphony and asking everyone to take their time today to deepen their friendship.

Anyway, now that the tea party is about to begin…… Jutia-san’s gaze, as if she couldn’t wait any longer, pierced me.

Chuckling at the sight of such a Jutia-san, I take out a pot of tea from my magic box.

[Errr, in case you’re wondering, the tea is already prepared here…… I don’t know much about tea though, is there a pouring method I need to know?]

I remember hearing something about pouring it in a way that would let the air out of its contents or something like that, but I didn’t really understand what they were talking about.

[Let’s see. In that case, in that case, should I pour it for you then?]

[Ahh, can I ask you to do that?]

[Unnn, unnn, leave it to me, leave it to me.]

After receiving the pot from me, Jutia-san prepared four cups and poured the tea with familiar hands.

[Oya oya? Oya oya? This looks like Glorious Tea……]

[Ahh, Nebula’s tea leaves aren’t to be used by themselves, but ones that are blended with another.]

[I see, I see……]

Responding to my words, Jutia-san was looking at the cup with a serious expression on her face, and when she put the cup in front of me, Ariel-san, and Tir-san after she finished pouring tea in them, she glanced at me.

She looked as if she was confirming if it’s alright to drink now, so I nodded, to which Jutia-san took a sip with a slightly nervous expression on her face, and her eyes widened in astonishment.

[Wha!? What is this!? What is this!? Amazing, this is amazing…… The taste is definitely Glorious Tea, but no matter how I brew it, this isn’t a taste I could arrive in…… W- W- What’s going on, I- I have no idea at all! How, how can I get this taste……]

A look of utter astonishment on Jutia-san’s face…… It’s just a guess, or rather, I’m sure that Jutia-san is a considerable tea lover and knows all kinds of teas just like Ein-san.

That’s why she’s astonished from the bottom of her heart at the taste that has been enhanced to 120%.

[Shock…… In other words, I’m also surprised. Difference is obvious…… In other words, this is clearly better than the Glorious Tea I had before.]

[Hawawa, this is amazing. This is the first time Tir drank tea this delicious.]

Ariel-san and Tir-san also looked surprised at the taste of the tea, but Jutia-san’s reaction was more dramatic than theirs.

Jutia-san stared at the tea for a while, mumbling to herself, but then she vigorously turned her head toward me all of a sudden and drew closer to me.

[Kaito! Tell me, tell me, what kind of tea leaves do you use to get this flavor?]

[Errr, it’s these tea leaves……]

I explained briefly about Nebula’s tea leaves to the extremely excited Jutia-san. While Jutia-san listened to my story, her eyes would sometimes widen and she would have a look of genuine, heartfelt amazement on her face.

After the explanation was over, Jutia-san put her hand on her chin and pondered with a serious look on her face.

[……This is amazing, this is amazing. The idea certainly is great, but the most amazing thing is that the tea leaves can add only a little taste without disturbing the original taste of the tea. With this, with this, you can have that tea or that tea’s flavor…… N- No, that’s not all. With these tea leaves, it may be possible that blends that were previously unsuitable may not be harmonized…… Truly, truly, these tea leaves…… brings about a revolution in tea history.]

[U- Ummm, Jutia-san?]

Her expression looked more serious than I expected, or rather, she seemed to be thinking with a ghastly expression on her face. As was the case with Ein-san, I guess Nebula’s tea leaves are incredibly attractive to those knowledgeable about tea.

As I was thinking about this, Jutia-san looked at me with seriousness in her eyes, and getting out of her chair, she knelt down in a dogeza…… Wait right there, what the heck are you doing!?

[Wait, Jutia-san!?]

[Kaito! I know I’m making an unreasonable request here. But but, but but, I really want these tea leaves…… I’ll give you as much as you want, so could you accommodate my request……]

[A- Anyway, please get up!]

A sudden dogeza!? She wants it that bad huh…… At any rate, I’m feeling a nasty amount of attention focusing on us, so I hurriedly asked Jutia-san to stop kneeling.

[……Errr, I know it sounds weird, but I thought Jutia-san would want some of these tea leaves, so I brought some cans of these tea leaves as a souvenir.]

[!? ]

[A- Also, I have also confirmed it with Nebula, so if Jutia-san wants them, I can give you one can a month, just like Ein-san does, but well, you would have to talk to Nebula directly for more detailed information- Uwooohhh!?]

I thought she might want some regular stock of these tea leaves just like Ein-san did, so I checked with Nebula well in advance and she said she had no problem giving some to Jutia-san.

It seems that Ein-san is paying for it, so she will have to negotiate the price with Nebula at a later date…… As we were talking about this, Jutia-san leaped towards me, seemingly overcome with emotion.

[Kaito! Thank you, thank you!]

[J- Jutia-san, c- calm down……]

Smelling like the forest, Jutia-san’s body is warm and soft, as if her body temperature is a little higher than usual as she hugged me.

Jutia-san, whose tension was ridiculously high, was happily hugging me, and it took a reasonable amount of time before I managed to settle her down.
