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

Chapter 1678: Re: Founding Festival ?

ChapterC.1678: Re: Founding Festival ?

<Author’s Notes>

I have to leave early tomorrow and don’t have time, so today’s chapter will be short.

Just as Shiro-san made those giant letters emerge from the sea, some kind of water performance began immediately afterwards, and we heard a voice through Amplification Magic, saying it was a production to commemorate the start of the Founding Festival.

The speed of their follow-up was unbelievable. It was so quick and precise that even I, who can grasp, or rather, who can understand the full extent of the Gods’ efforts, thought it was just a normal production.

[……Fumu. Not bad of a cooperation. This dimension isn’t the original one, but I feel joy in being able to sense and experience their growth like this.]

Saying this, Shiro-san nodded her head in satisfaction…… No, you do understand they’re following up on your actions, right!? No, from Shiro-san’s point of view, she must be pleased to see the coordination between the Gods getting stronger after the White God Festival, and I could tell she was feeling parental joy from witnessing their growth.

Besides, I’m sure the Gods don’t think of this as any sort of hardship either, and if they heard what Shiro-san just said, they’d probably cry and rejoice……. Unnn? I guess there’s no problem with it then?

[Well, for the time being, let’s get ourselves back on track. Shall we depart?]

[Indeed. Whoa, Kaito-san, it’s a disaster.]

[Yeah, yeah, your hand is free, yes? Then, let’s hold hands.]

I’ve already known Shiro-san for a reasonably long time…… No, well, compared to Shiro-san’s other acquaintances, the time I’ve known her might be relatively short, but considering we’re dating, we are much closer than the others. That’s why I believe I understand Shiro-san quite well.

In this scenario, if she were to start with such words, her next words would be “My hands are still available”, but when I went ahead and proposed holding hands, holding out my hand to her, I could see Shiro-san unusually looking shocked.

[Oya, Kaito-san has suddenly learned how to read minds?]

[It’s not that I read your mind, it’s more of a prediction based on past experience. Well, considering I also believe I know Shiro-san quite well as your lover, I’d at least be able to understand such a thing.]

[Fumu…… You know me better than anyone else, that’s quite a bold line for you to say.]

[Did I go that far with my words……?]

[To sum it up, you’re declaring “Shiro-san is mine” huh.]

[What kind of leap in logic led you to that!?]

I reflexively threw back a tsukkomi in response to her ridiculous leap in logic, but then I noticed something. Shiro-san’s voice is still as inflectionless as usual, but the corners of her lips are still slightly upturned and her remarks are even more absurd than usual.

This is just my guess, but I think she’s so happy that she got so excited. It seems she had gotten particularly thrilled when I anticipated Shiro-san’s wish and acted accordingly.

[However, it’s a fact that I’m yours though?]

[Ahaha, that is, well, it’s an honor…… Anyhow, let’s go.]

[Yes, well then, I’ll leave escorting me to you.]

Wryly smiling at such a Shiro-san, I intertwined my fingers with hers and started walking. The Founding Festival had just begun, and as I contemplated where we should go first, casting a sideways glance at the cheerful Shiro-san, a small smile formed on my lips.
