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

Chapter 1563 - Archlesia Empire Founding Festival ③

After welcoming Lilia and showing her to her guest room, Chris was still busy moving around. Then came the time to meet the three Supreme Gods, which could be said to be the most important part of the event.

As for the members of the Six Kings in participation in their Founding Festival, she knew them to some extent. Magnawell has a deep friendship with Archlesia Empire, and she’s also acquainted with Lillywood, who in the first place, is known as the one with the best personality among the Six Kings.

Unlike them, she had almost no interaction with the Supreme Gods. The Supreme God responsible for Archlesia Empire the God of Life, Life, but Life, who basically never goes to the Human Realm, has never spoken to anyone. Typically, her subordinate Gods like God of Fertility would participate in such ceremonies.

She has also never spoken much with the God of Fate, Fate. They’ve only talked a little when she granted her Providence on her land in the past.

As for the God of Time and Space, she has more experience talking with her than with the other Supreme Gods. Chronois basically negotiates with the rulers of the three countries and the Six Kings, assuming the role of the representative of the Gods, at the Festival of Heroes. But even when she had more conversation with her compared to the other Supreme Gods, she doesn’t remember having had conversations close enough for her to understand Chronois’ temperament.

Therefore, while she aimed to avoid any major blunders, she hasn’t been able to come up with a hospitality plan highly suitable for them, so to be safe, she had prepared the highest level of hospitality to welcome them.

[Welcome, it is an honor to have you here.]

[Umu, we are under your care today, Emperor Archlesia. Normally, it would be the God of Life, who is in charge of Archlesia, that should be the one dealing with public matters, but when all of us Supreme Gods act together like this, I am basically in charge of dealing with them, so I would like your understanding that I will be acting as their representative.]

[Understood. We have prepared a room for you and will show you around. After confirming the schedule for today’s ceremony, you are free to spend the rest of the day at your leisure.

[I understand. Well then, please show us the way.]

When Chris nervously called out to the Supreme Gods who had appeared, Chronois responded with a smile. Although her tone sounded arrogant, Chronois is the friendliest of all the Supreme Gods, as she followed Chris’ guidance without any objection.

After moving to their room, they were given a brief explanation of the Founding Festival ceremony.

Although the Founding Festival itself began early in the morning, the ceremony will be held at noon, so they have relatively plenty of time available for them. After confirming the schedule, Chronois nodded once before turning to Life.

[I have no particular objections about it. What about you, God of Life?]

[No problems with it either. I don’t see how we have any special role to play other than our participation, and since we have some time before the start time, I will meditate for a while.]

[……You’re just sleeping though……]

In essence, when God of Life speaks of meditation, she actually meant she will be sleeping within the free time until the ceremony begins, and seeing her going back to her usual antics, Chronois let out a sigh.

Still, since she was just sleeping, it’s not like she’s bothering the Empire, she shouldn’t be a problem, so after thinking that, she turned to Fate.

[As for God of Fate——— Huh?]

[……Eh?]

Immediately after turning to Fate, Chronois’ mouth gaped in surprise, while Chris’ eyes opened wide. Fate wasn’t in the place where she should have been, and instead, there was a vertically long cushion with a piece of paper pasted on it.

“I’m gonna go visit Kai-chan’s stall~~ I’ll be back if I remember about this again.”

Yes, she immediately scampered away. This time, the Supreme Gods’ attendance was only permitted by Shallow Vernal, and “they were not ordered to attend”. Despite her tendency to be awfully apathetic with most things and averse with troublesome stuff, Fate surprisingly agreed to attend the ceremony. Chronois, while somewhat skeptical, just attributed it to Fate’s recent increase in productivity and thinking “Perhaps even God of Fate is starting to embrace her role as a Supreme God”, she interpreted it in a positive light.

[……T- That…… That fool!!!]

But in reality, the awareness of being a Supreme God doesn’t exist in her mind at all. Fate simply wanted to go see Kaito open his stall and while she’s at it, decided to participate in the ceremony at the same time, so her priorities were overwhelmingly in favor of Kaito’s stall rather than the ceremony.

Even so, it was written that “if she remembered, she would return”…… but Chronois, knowing Fate well, was sure that there was no way for her to forget about this……

[……M- My stomach……]

The fact that one of the three Supreme Gods had just left the royal castle and was publicly participating in their festival made Chris unconsciously hold her stomach.

Chronois also held her head to endure a surging headache, and after staying silent for a while, she spoke.

[Apologies, Emperor Archlesia. I should have seen this coming. I’ll bring that fool back for the time being, so you can rest assured.]

[Y- Yes. Thank you in advance.]

[You also have your own difficulties huh…… In any case, the schedule is fine as it is. Just tell me where Miyama is.]

After saying that while getting up from her seat, Chronois let out a big sigh before heading off to capture the runaway Fate.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [A- Amazing. What’s amazing? It’s that although Kaito didn’t do anything, he still generally dealt a heavy blow to the stomach…… Stomach Blow True Masters can attack the stomach without even taking any action huh……]

? ? ? : [They really should have noticed it when Fate-san obediently agreed to participate, didn’t they? Yeah, she certainly has grown, but her dislike for troublesome stuff hasn’t changed at all…… At the point when she tries to participate in a troublesome ceremony, there’s obviously some sort of hidden agenda behind it.]
