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

Chapter 1868: Before the Ship Party Starts ?

Chapter 1868: Before the Ship Party Starts ?

Not all guests of the party are high-profile figures. For one to be invited to the party, one only has to have been in contact with Kaito. However, if one were to talk about the ratio, it's more highly likely for the guest to be a high-profile person.

Akane and Kaori, who had returned after guiding Olivia to her room, stood in the open space of the reception area and watched the participants in a daze.

Incidentally, Akane and Kaori were here because they felt uncomfortable in the overly luxurious rooms assigned to them, and also because they were curious to see what kind of participants would be there.

[Come to think of it, Akane-san. Where's Frau-san?]

[Ahh, she met an acquaintance among the maids who would be serving at this party, so she went to say hello to her. Putting aside if that acquaintance of hers was also a guest, it wouldn't be appropriate for Frau to greet her when the party starts.]

[I see, then I'll be Akane-san's guard until Frau-san returns.]

[Ou, you're running your mouth now huh? Well, I'm not very good at anything except Teleportation Magic]

[Fufufu, I'm good at Water Magic, so I can be quite impressive on the sea Ahh, even though I say I'm impressive, I'm more of a water flea compared to the participants at this party]

While they were exchanging idle chatter with each other Unlike with Shigenobu's case a little while ago, the two of them heard a voice that they didn't recognize.

[Umm, are you by chance participants of this party?]

[Eh? Ahh, yes. You are]

[Ahh, I'm sorry. I'm Elise, I run a small fortune-telling shop in Symphonia Kingdom. Well, I was feeling a little overwhelmed by all the great people everywhere, so when I saw you guys having similar vibes to me, I just had to say hello. If you're actually well-known people that I just don't know, well, I apologize.]

Hearing the words of the woman with slightly curly chestnut hair that partially obscured her eyes, Elise Kaori and Akane nod in understanding.

[Ahh, I get what you feel. Oops, my name is Mizuhara Kaori, I'm just a commoner who runs a set meal shop in Friendship City.]

[I'm Mikumo Akane. I'm the president of a small trading company called Mikumo Trading Company, but compared with all the people in this hall, I'm a complete civilian.]

[Thank you for your courtesy. From the sound of your name Could it be that you were otherworlders?]

[Yes, we were former Hero Actors.]

Seeing Elise's gentle and likable smile, Kaori and Akane, who had been seeing only high-ranking figures so far, felt a sense of relief as they spoke.

[Elise-san it's only natural since you're here at this party, but you know Kaito-kun, right?]

[Yes, I've been under Miyama Kaito-san's care ever since I first opened my shop. I was invited to the party because of that, but I didn't expect this place to be this amazing Haha, I've been completely overwhelmed by the atmosphere here.]

[I get you! Well even though I know the people attending here were basically just those Kaito-kun knows, not necessarily a gathering of famous people, seeing the Six Kings, their Executives, and the Gods appearing one after another was still intimidating. Having ordinary people like Elise-san here kinda makes me feel relieved.]

[Thanks to the two of you being here, I was also relieved to find out that I wasn't the only commoner here. If it's not too much trouble, can we continue chatting for a while longer?]

[Of course! I'd also love to hear about Elise-san's shop!]

[I'm interested in this too. If you're considering selling your original products elsewhere, there might be ways we could collaborate.]

Feeling relaxed with each other's ordinary aura, the three of them continued chatting happily for a while.

<Afterword>

? ? ? : [This guy acting so brazen]

Serious-senpai : [No, in the first place, Elise is a full-on masquerader except when she's around Kaito or Alice. Her being overwhelmed may have been a complete lie, but she probably just wants to vent out the complaints she had about Kaito in her mind.]

? ? ? : [Well, in this guy's case, if she complains about someone, her favorability towards them is actually extremely high.]
