Novel Full Chapter 2362: The Promised Tea Party ㉛
After visiting Isis-san, I headed over to the God Realm. The reason was to share some ripples with Fate-san and Shiro-san.
At first glance, going from the Demon Realm to the God Realm sounds like traveling an incredible distance, but with my teleportation magic tool, it’s quick and not a problem.
For now, I only plan to share the ripples with Shiro-san and Fate-san. The other Gods I know don’t really eat much, and I don’t get the impression they enjoy food for its own sake. Chronois-san, for instance, does drink alcohol, but hardly eats. Life-san, apparently, hardly eats or drinks at all.
Shea-san does eat and drink, but since she dislikes sweets, bringing her sweet ripples would be more like harassment. As for Sky-san, Gaia-san, and Marine-san, I don’t really know their eating habits, so I’ve left them out this time.
Fate-san will eat if I bring them to her, so that’s no problem. Shiro-san, though, most likely, well, she definitely has no interest in the ripples itself. If she wanted to, she could make as much as she liked anyway……
But if I left her out in this kind of situation, she’d sulk, so I plan to bring her at least one.
(I do not sulk. It is simply a rightful protest against unfairness.)
R- Right…… Well, I’ll make sure to bring some, so please don’t protest.
Speaking of which, this isn’t related, but I’ve been thinking about hosting a tea party someday. Would you come, Shiro-san? I’ll be inviting some others too but……
(I have no interest in the tea party itself. However, the prospect of it being a tea party hosted by Kaito-san is very appealing, so I’ll attend.)Well, we already have tea together pretty often, so that makes sense. Anyway, understood. When I actually hold it, I’ll send you an invitation.
As I was having this exchange with Shiro-san, Fate-san’s temple came into view. Waiting outside to greet me was Fate-san herself…… and also Life-san.
[Oh, Kai-chan, welcome.]
[Hello, Fate-san. Life-san too, I see you’re also here to visit.]
[Hello, Miyama-san. Yes, I had just come to ask God of Fate about the proper mindset when dealing with Humans. But perhaps I should return later.]
It seemed Life-san had only just arrived, dropping by unexpectedly, and from her attitude, if Fate-san and I had already arranged to meet, she didn’t intend to intrude.
[Kai-chan brought me some of his stuff to share, you know.]
[……Share?]
[Yes. I recently got to know a lady named Marie-san of the Ritch Barony from the Archlesia Empire, and she gave me a lot of ripples, so I’m sharing some of it.]
Hearing my words, Life-san placed her hand thoughtfully on her chin, looking intrigued.
[The Ritch Barony…… if I recall, they are nobles with lands in the western part of Archlesia Empire. So one of their members is friends with you, Miyama-san?]
[Yes, though we only met recently. The ripples she gave me were really delicious, I like them a lot. I hadn’t thought of sharing with Life-san since I heard you hardly eat or drink but…… if you’d like, would you care for some ripples as well?]
[Thank you very much. Then, if only as a reference, may I try one?]
[Of course. Here you go.]
Since we’d met anyway, I offered Life-san a ripple. She accepted it and gave me a polite bow.
[My heartfelt thanks…… Well then, if I stay too long, God of Fate might get mad, so I’ll excuse myself here…… The Ritch Barony huh…… perhaps I should confirm with God of Fertility…… Miyama-san seems to hold them in high regard…… so depending on the situation……]
After smiling and offering her thanks, Life-san muttered something under her breath and took her leave.
[Kai-chaaaan, what about mine?]
[I figured you’d find eating ripple as it is a hassle, Fate-san…… so I had Illness-san bake it into an apple, well, ripple pound cake. Let’s eat it together.]
[Ooh, nice! Okay then, let’s have some tea together~~]
I was certain Fate-san would consider peeling or cutting fruit too much trouble, so I had Illness-san turn it into a dessert instead.
I planned to spend about an hour leisurely with Fate-san, and then head over to Shiro-san afterwards.
(If you’re worried about time, shall I activate the Super WIN System?)
No, I don’t think using the Parallel World Utilization System just for tea is necessary…… I still have plenty of time today, and nowhere else to go, so it’s fine.
<Afterword>
Stomachache Devil : [Aaaaand the fifth one!]
Serious-senpai : [Y- You’re a devil…… This is gonna be that, right? First the teleportation magic tool, then promotion, then teleport gates, then new business partners, and just when she thought it was over…… now this…… Isn’t this gonna lead to something blessing-related……? Like going to talk to Elune and strengthening the Blessing of Fertility or something……?]
