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

Chapter 1571 - Archlesia Empire Founding Festival ⑪

The opening of the stall with Amel-san was relatively successful. There were a moderate number of customers, and although not much time had passed since the start of the event, a good number of items were sold.

The chuunibyou goods and other such items looked unusual at first glance, drawing people’s initial interest with their appearance, and the cheap price tag meant that people who had loosened their purse strings from the festive atmosphere nicely bought them.

[The sales are going well. At this pace, it looks like we’d be able to sell quite well.]

[As expected, everyone is captivated by the deep darkness. I’m glad to see the number of my kindred spirits is increasing.]

Well, I think the people who bought them not because they were cool, but because they were interesting and interesting when seen as party goods…… but some things are better left unsaid.

Incidentally, we also got permission from Alice to set them at a lower price. Or rather, Alice isn’t really that keen on the sales of a small stall, so she says it’s fine to sell it at almost cost price. Being able to sell it quite cheaply is also one of the factors contributing to our good sales.

Well, though I say that, our place isn’t really that busy, with guests coming at a moderate pace, which was just right. As I was thinking about this, I suddenly heard a familiar voice.

[This area sure got a lot of alcohol~~]

[There seem to be a lot of Dwarven stalls here. Kaori’s place also deals with alcohol, right? You stocking up on something?]

[Ah~~ No, I already got traumatized from trying out stocking up alcohol…… but since Shige-san likes to drink, buying something for him as a souvenir might be a good idea. Ahh, there’s an interesting one over there with an unusual at…… mos…… phere?]

[Unnn? What’s the…… matter?]

Yes, it was unexpectedly Kaori-san and Akane-san. Did they come to hang out at the Founding Festival? Even so, for me to meet them at a place like this, what an amazing coincidence.

They seemed to have noticed me as well, as after looking surprised, they approached our stall.

[What, if it isn’t Kaito. Not only at Symphonia’s, you also opened up your stall here?]

[Yes, my friend invited me…… What a coincidence. I didn’t think the two of you would come to the Founding Festival.]

[I was summoned to Archlesia Empire when I came to this world after all. Things got heated when the topic of Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival was brought up and we decided to go hang out together. We never thought we’d see Kaito-kun here though……]

After exchanging smiles, Akane-san glanced at Amel-san and tilting her head, she turned to me again and asked.

[So, Kaito…… Which distinguished person is she now?]

[She’s the Wingeds’ Chief, Amel-san.]

[…….Seriously…… You…… Are you for real?]

[If I’m not mistaken, the Wingeds is a species that doesn’t interact with those of other species at all…… and for you to open a stall with their Chief, this child really is beyond my common sense.]

The two of them looked genuinely surprised to hear my words, and Kaori-san was clutching her stomach. I was tempted to throw out a tsukkomi, but I thought it would be better to introduce them to Amel-san first, so I explained it to her, who was curiously looking at me.

[Amel-san, these are Mizuhara Kaori-san and Mikumo Akane-san, who are from the same world as me and used to be Hero actors.]

[Heehhh…… People from the same world as my sworn friend huh. I see, you two were indeed also quite unusual, for you possess special magic power. So you girls are also Guided Ones…… In that case, one deems it right to introduce myself. I am Amel, the pitch-black wings that unite those who live in the sky, his sworn friend.]

[……H- Huh.]

Hearing Amel-san happily speaking, Kaori-san had a slightly puzzled expression on her face, while Akane-san’s cheeks were silently twitching. Perhaps, she felt the urge to throw a tsukkomi at Chuuni MAX Amel-san’s words, but she couldn’t bring herself to actually throw it out because of Amel-san’s identity, so she was holding herself back.

Thus, the troubled Akane-san only brought her face close to mine and spoke to me in a whisper that no one else could hear.

[Sorry, let me tsukkomi for just this one thing…… Kaito. why did you become the sworn friend of the Wingeds’ Chief?]

[…….Apparently in our previous life.]

[How the heck did that happen!? Heck, even if you two did know your past lives, you both would probably be still in different worlds……]

[Even if you tell me that……]

[What else do you expect!? It’s not like I can play banter with the top of the Wingeds, so I can only throw my tsukkomis at you…… I mean, why is it that everytime I encounter you, you’d always be with someone remarkable? Are you seriously aiming to destroy everyone’s stomachs……]

As Akane-san dexterously threw her tsukkomis in a whisper, I could only wryly smile with an indescribable expression on my face. Well, now that she mentioned it, I actually seemed to be with someone different who was also quite influential every time we’ve met, so I can’t really complain.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [T- This is!? Looking at the timing of these two, after this would be the perfect moment for Megiddo’s raid flag. Stomachache leading to more stomachache, a Great Stomachache Chain!?]
