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

Chapter 1585 - End of Stomachache Festival ①

In any case, I briefly explained to Lilia-san and Amel-san about Roze-san and Luminax. As she loves stories about Six Kings Dungeon and the Six King Golems, Amel-san’s eyes lit up.

[Luminax…… Even its name is cool. The design too……]

[……In other words, they’re Copy Golems of the Six Kings back then…… It does possess tremendous magic power befitting it…… M- My stomach hurts.]

On the contrary though, Lilia-san was holding on to her stomach, seemingly enduring a stomachache. Roze-san then put away Uminax, before happily leaping to my shoulder and started bouncing about.

Seeing them seemingly expressing their joy by trembles and vibrations was so cute and soothing to watch.

Thereupon, at that moment, I heard what sounded like fireworks…… This sound resounding…… I suppose that marks the end of the ceremony?

[Amel-san, was that the signal for the end of the ceremony?]

[Yeah, that’s right. The second fanfare signals the end of the ceremony. It doesn’t mean the festivities have ended though, only that the ceremony has been brought to a close.]

[I see…… That means Lilia-san will be returning soon, right?]

[That’s right. Even when the ceremony has ended, there’s still the party…… However, it seems like———– ! ? ]

The ceremony was over, but I still wondered how Lilia-san was going to return, when Lilia-san’s suddenly stopped her words mid-conversation. Somehow, it feels like she’s talking with Eden-san right now.

[……It seems that Eden-sama will be bringing me back as well.]

[Ahh, then you won’t have to worry about being late.]

[Yes, that’s quite fortunate of me…… I feel really reluctant going back through that though……] ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

Come to think of it, Lilia-san disappeared suddenly using Teleportation Magic in the middle of the ceremony. Well, I have a feeling that the Supreme Gods and the Six Kings understand the situation, but even so, when she returns, she will undoubtedly face various questions. I feel like things would be quite busy during that party.

[……Though I say that, not returning isn’t an option, so I have no choice but to brace myself. Kaito-san, thank you for the delicious yakisoba.]

[No, I’m just glad if you could take some break…… Ah, pieces of aonori seaweed can sometimes get stuck in your teeth when you eat yakisoba, so please make sure to check in the mirror.]

[I understand. The Founding Festival is still going on, so please do your best in your stall.]

After leaving those words with a smile, Lilia-san suddenly disappeared without any warning. No doubt, she was teleported by Eden-san’s Teleportation Magic.

Well, as Lilia-san said, the Founding Festival is still going on, so let’s work on our stall. I also have to introduce my products to Roze-san, who just arrived……

Just as I was thinking all that though, a sense of unease suddenly crossed my mind.

[……Sorry, Alice. I have a question.]

[Yes, yes, what is it?]

[Lilia-san was teleported by Eden-san just now, right?]

[That, she did.]

[……This is obvious, but Eden-san knows that next on Lilia-san’s schedule is to attend the party in the castle, right?]

[I’m sure she does.]

The fireworks that signaled the end of the ceremony went off just a few minutes ago. I believe that at the moment, the attendees such as the Supreme Gods and the Six Kings should still be at the Central Plaza, still moving back to the castle where the party is to take place.

[……Given this situation, where do you think Eden-san would have teleported Lilia-san to?]

[……Indeed. Since the ceremony is already over, it’s highly likely that she would have been transported to her next destination, which is the party venue.]

[……The people who attended the ceremony haven’t arrived at the party venue yet, have they?]

[Pretty sure they haven’t arrived yet. If you ask me, they may be on their way to the party.]

[……In other words, Lilia-san has been teleported to the “party venue where she’s all alone, with the organizers not having arrived yet,” is that correct?]

[Lilia-san sure got herself in a really tricky situation……]

Imagining Lilia-san being alone at the party venue…… surrounded by maids and servers who are preparing and staring at her in astonishment, I can’t help but feel a mix of indescribable emotions.

As I was thinking this, Alice suddenly muttered with a pitying expression on her face.

[……After hearing Kaito-san bring that up, I just thought of something.]

[Unnn?]

[If you reach the level of Eden-san, you can manipulate time and perform teleportation with temporal shifts. So, ummm, even if Lilia-san disappeared here now, the place where Lilia-san was teleported to…… may actually be “the venue just before the party started”.]

[…………………..Worst-case scenario?]

[While this is pure speculations, some weird precautions being taken to ensure that there was no waiting time occurred for Lilia-san…… isn’t completely impossible.]

If that were the case, it would result in the sudden appearance of Lilia-san through a mysterious Teleportation Magic just as the distinguished nobles gather and the party is about to begin…… Either case feels like hell.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [It says it’s the end of the festival. However, it doesn’t say it’s the end for the stomachaches…… I mean, the Strongest Stomachache Warrior is already taking a nasty hit early on.]
