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

Chapter 1461 - Captivating Relaxation Room ①

After the fun-filled Flying Board competition’s afterparty, I exchanged contacts with some of the people I became friends with via hummingbird. I already have a lot of hummingbird contacts and will soon reach my storage limits, so I suppose it’s about time for me to buy a new hummingbird magic tool.

[That was fun~~ I hope we can go race again next year~~]

[Ahaha, for you to already be talking about participating next year, it seems like you’re really into Flying Boards, Hina-chan.]

[Team sports really are great! Moreover, being able to play with Kaito-senpai is also nice!]

[That’s as long as it’s a sport that doesn’t have much to do with fighting power or physical ability.]

Just like the smiling Hina-chan said, the Flying Board was indeed a really good competition.

It’s quite precious how even I, who is greatly inferior to Hina-chan and Aoi-chan in terms of personal combat power and physical ability, even when I’m under the effect of Body Strengthening Magic, can cooperate with each other on the same level as the others without any problems.

[However, just as Hina-chan said, that was fun. Should we go and aim for two consecutive wins?]

[Well, it certainly was a competition in which I could see why there were a lot of people who were into it. Moreover, there are some people I’ve gotten to know quite a bit in the afterparty, which makes me want to attend the afterparty again.]

[Ah~~ I get what you mean. There are a lot of good people here! The competition itself was heart-pounding, and even after it was over, it still felt refreshing.]

I really enjoyed the afterparty. I also had a lively conversation with Anne-san and Greene-san, and I also liked the atmosphere it had, having the feel of a big village festival-like event.

Just as Aoi-chan said, if things were convenient for us at that time, it would be nice if we could join again next year.

Just like that, the three of us talked about the day’s events as we headed home.

When we returned home, Aoi-chan and Hina-chan had rented a room in Lilia-san’s mansion, so we separated at the entrance and went back to our rooms.

However, although the competition was fun, it had been a full day from the qualifying race to the afterparty, and I was pretty tired. I wanted to take a bath and relax, but before that, I wanted to have a cup of tea, so I asked Illness-san for some tea. Incidentally, hummingbird is the quickest way to contact people in situations like this.

I do have one of those handbells that can be seen from movies and manga, and Illness-san can apparently hear the sound of the bell no matter where she is in the mansion…… but it’s kind of a hassle to ask someone to come and tell them what you wanted them to do, so the hummingbird is useful because I can just convey what I want directly.

After a few moments, I heard a systematic knock from the door, and when I answered, Illness-san came in pushing a cart.

[I’ve brought your teaaaaa.]

[Thank you.]

[You looooook a little tiiiiiiiired.]

[Even with all the fun I had, today had been quite tiring.]

While thanking Illness-san, who brewed me tea with a gentle smile, I briefly talked about today. I told her that we participated in a Flying Board competition and won, and about today’s other events……

Illness-san kept gently smiling and listening to my story, occasionally responding back. She’s as gentle and receptive as ever.

[……I seeeee, you must be quite tired theeeeeen. If that’s the caaaaaaase~~ should I set uuuuuuup the “Relaxation Room” for you todaaaaaay?]

[……Relaxation Room?]

[It’s a relaxation roooooom that can be entered through the hidden door in the dressing roooooom.]

[I had no idea that exists.]

[Oyaaaa?]

I had never heard of that before. Heck, there’s actually a hidden room in the dressing room? How many tricks are there in this mansion that I don’t know about?

I mean, why is it that Illness-san knows about it when I don’t?

[……When Alice-sama explained to me about the mansiooon, that’s when I learned about iiiiiit?]

[I- Is that so?]

[Yeeeees. The reason why you had never used it befooooore, it’s because you didn’t know about iiiiiiit?]

[Y- Yes, by the way, what kind of place is it?]

[There are various facilitiiiiiies, such as a sauna and bedrock baaaaath, and the main purpose of that place is to heal the fatigue of the bodyyyyyy. From what I heard from Alice-samaaaaa, there’s even something called a jacuzzi? which was apparently something from the otherworld.]

[……That’s the first time I’ve heard of that. Errr, is it something that can be immediately used?]

[I’ll need a little time to prepaaaaare, but I can have it ready in half an houuuuuur.]

That kinda sounds like a normally good place though…… Eh? I have a bedrock bath and jacuzzi in my own home? Why the heck are you hiding this, Alice……

[Errr, then, can I ask you to prepare it?]

[Understoooooood. Well theeeeen, I’ll call you when it’s readyyyy.]

[Ah, yes.]

After asking Illness-san to prepare for the time being, when Illness-san came out of the room, I called out to Alice.

[……Alice, why did you hide such a room?]

[Fumu, there’s actually a deeper reason for this. Please don’t get mad and just listen to me.]

[Unnn?]

[……Well~~ You see, I wanted to introduce the basement rooms as soon as possible, so I accidentally forgot about it and thought that I had explained it to you just like I did with the others! In other words, I simply forgot! Tehepero———- Ouch!?]

[Doesn’t that mean there’s no deeper reason at all!?]

It seems that she had simply forgot to explain. In the first place, what’s the point of making the entrance behind a hidden door? Well, it’s Alice we’re talking about here, so she’s probably gonna say hidden doors are romantic or something like that……

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……For bedrock baths and other baths of its variety, putting aside those who were already used to them, wouldn’t amateurs need someone to teach them?]

? ? ? : [There’s Pandemonium with him though.]

Serious-senpai : [……I knew it…… It really would turn out that way huh…… Can I go home?]

? ? ? : [No.]
