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

Without either of them realizing the grave Kaori had stepped into, the discussion about the date plans continued. Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

[In the evening, it’s ideal if we go to a place with a nice view…… preferably on a high hill, right?]

[Exactly. You know, watching the sunset side by side in a beautiful spot…… That sounds so nice…… I wish I’d had a springtime of youth like that too.]

[Unn? Can’t you just do it now?]

[Ah, well, the springtime of youth in a person’s life is rather short…… No, errr…… it’s a bit complicated to explain, so let’s drop the subject.]

To Kaori, “the springtime of youth” referred to the teenage years, but in this world, there were many long-lived species…… Even Olivia was over a thousand years old, and explaining this concept to her was challenging.

More to the point, from a long-lived being’s perspective, someone of Kaori’s age was no different from a child. Yet, with her strong sense of human experience, Kaori saw herself as someone nearing her thirties, someone rather old already; this difference in perception was tough to connect with long-lived beings.

[A- Anyhow, the idea is to set a nice mood by watching the sunset together in a scenic spot, and then go to a slightly upscale restaurant for dinner. It’d be even better if it’s a place with a night view.]

[Indeed, though it would be disrespectful to choose a cheap restaurant for Miyama Kaito-sama’s meal, I understand he doesn’t favor overly luxurious places either, so something moderately upscale should work well.]

Since both were amateurs in romance, they’d settled on a safe, classic date plan. Nonetheless, the basic outline was decided.

Now, they just needed to choose and reserve a restaurant, so Kaori and Olivia continued their discussion with a variety of magazines in hand.

On a clear morning, as usual, I went through the letters sorted by Anima and found one from Olivia-san.

It was incredibly thick, and I almost thought there was a book inside, but when I took it out, I found what seemed to be a letter made out of a hundred pages.

A bit overwhelmed by the sheer volume, I started reading. The first page was an apology for sending the letter out of the blue and a thank-you for receiving it…… and then, the first page ended.

After that, it was page after page filled with endless praise about me, with no sign of her getting to the main point. No matter how many pages I turned, it was just more compliments.

How should I say this…… The atmosphere this letter had felt rather familiar. It reminded me of how Olivia-san would go into a “praise frenzy” whenever she got flustered. That being the case, she must’ve been quite nervous when she wrote this.

Unsure of what to make of it, I skimmed through the praise-filled pages, looking for the main point…… Finally, about halfway through, I found something that seemed relevant.

“……In line with this, if you would allow it, I would like to request a date with Miyama Kaito-sama. Of course, I understand that Miyama Kaito-sama has your own schedule, so I won’t insist, and I am willing to adjust the date to suit Miyama Kaito-sama’s convenience. This is also part of the trials presented by Shallow Vernal-sama, and at the same time, I would like to take this opportunity to express my daily deep gratitude to Miyama Kaito-sama in some way, meager it may be……”

The letter continued on for what felt like forever, but at least I understood the main point. It seemed that Olivia hoped to go on a date with me at Shiro-san’s suggestion.

Hmmm…… could this be related to that conversation Olivia-san and Shiro-san had during Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival? Given Olivia-san’s overly serious nature, Shiro-san might have casually advised her to go out somewhere with me, which Olivia interpreted as a date.

But well…… If this really is connected to the Founding Festival, quite a bit of time has passed…… Considering Olivia’s personality, she might have spent all this time thinking and preparing.

Well, in any case, I don’t really have any problem going out together with her…… oya?

“Additionally, Mizuhara Kaori has expressed interest in joining this date, and as she has frequently given me advice, I would like to fulfill her wish. If it’s alright with Miyama Kaito-sama, would you allow Mizuhara Kaori to accompany us?”

Kaori-san also wants to join us on the date? Yeah, this really feels like an invitation for a fun outing for the three of us. Well, I have no objections to that. Hanging out with both Kaori-san and Olivia-san sounds like it could be quite enjoyable, so I’ll respond with my agreement.

……That aside, I still have about half of the letter left…… What else does this letter contain?

Even though I thought the main point was over, I was curious about the remaining pages…… As I flipped through, I found that they were filled with lengthy expressions of gratitude for my reading the letter, overflowing with thanks.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Kaori, the beginning of the stomach is upon you…… No, in fact, how will Kaori feel after receiving Kaito’s response and being told by Olivia about their three-person date……?]
