I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace - #1697 - C.1694: Noontime Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ①

After Olivia-san was sent off by Shiro-san via teleportation, Shiro-san and I went back to our date in the Founding Festival.

No, when I think about what Laguna-san and Lilia-san’s current situation was like, I do feel sorry for them, but even if that were the case, there’s nothing I can do about it now.

I mean, just at this instance, isn’t it that I’m not in any way at fault here? The one at fault for teleporting Olivia-san here was Shiro-san, and since she had done it almost by surprise, it was difficult for me to infer her intentions beforehand.

Well, if you trace the reason why Shiro-san and Olivia-san came to the Founding Festival in the first place, I can’t really respond with anything even if they say it was my fault……

[The ceremony is about to start, so it looks like the Founding Festival is finally in full swing.]

[Which also means it’s the crucial moment for our date.]

[Well, you aren’t exactly wrong…… I guess?]

I could see the flow of people heading towards the plaza in front of the House of Parliament, so it seemed that the ceremony’s scheduled time was approaching.

Well, I’ve already seen what the ceremony was like last iteration, and Shiro-san herself doesn’t seem particularly interested, so I guess we can just normally enjoy the festival without heading to the plaza in front of the House of Parliament.

Better yet, many people are heading to see the message from the First Hero, so the streets might be relatively empty and easy to move around.

Speaking of which, with all that has happened today, it felt like a considerable amount of time had passed, but the fact that the ceremony is starting just now means it’s still quite early in the day.

It really does feel like this would be the crucial moment of the festival, but when I think about all the things that had happened up to this point, I feel a little anxious.

[By the way, Kaito-san. Do you not have anything you want to say to me?]

[Something I want to say, what am———— Huh?]

Tilting my head at Shiro-san’s abrupt words, I turned towards her and was surprised. It was because Shiro-san, who had been wearing casual clothing just a moment ago, had changed into a different outfit in the blink of an eye.

She was wearing an elegant, long dress with a white base and patterns resembling blue flowers. On her head was a largish white hat, covering her hair, loosely swept in front of her shoulders…… No, even the length of her hair had changed.

She said she would change her outfit along the way, but I never expected the change would make me this surprised! Putting aside the length of her hair, which I think Shiro-san could obviously adjust, I found myself mesmerized by her different, yet captivating look.

If the one earlier was a casual and lively Shiro-san, she’s currently dressed like a neat and elegant lady.

It goes without saying that Shiro-san’s appearance was that of a peerless beauty, and when she wore such elegant white-based clothes, I felt her beauty held mystery within it.

Meanwhile, Shiro-san herself seemed to be intensely radiating this aura that seemed to say “Come on, please compliment me”.

[……Errr, I was surprised at your sudden change in outfit, but your clothes also suit you very well. Shiro-san has, how should I say this…… this mysterious beauty in you, so that kind of neat and clean clothing really suits you, and that largish hat also looks very lovely.]

[Fufu, thank you. I’m glad to hear that…… so I’d like to have some more.]

Whoa there, she went and asked for another round of compliments…… Since she seems to like it, there’s a chance that it would also go like this later.

[Your hairstyle looks great as well. It’s refreshing seeing the length of your hair different from usual, and the way it flows on your shoulders gives off a mature and composed vibe. Combined with Shiro-san’s usual charm, you’ve become incredibly attractive to the point where just looking at you makes my heart race.]

Of course, all of the things I said were true and no lie is being told. Shiro-san is incredibly charming, and getting the chance to see her in a different way like this makes me delighted.

Upon hearing my words of praise, the corners of Shiro-san’s lips had clearly lifted, forming into a smile. It seems she’s quite satisfied.

Just as I was thinking that…… colorful lights went up into the sky from all over the city…… and the words “Greatly Satisfied” were drawn in huge rainbow letters in the sky.

……She’s come up with something new. At that moment, I also felt like I heard the sound of Chronois-san and the others’ stomachs being broken.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [The God who Naturally Destroys Stomachs…… Also, that subtitle…… Does that mean there’s also gonna be a Nighttime one? What, you gonna make out a lot at that time?]
