I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN) - Chapter 1588: End of Stomacha

Lillywood, at the venue where the Founding Festival party was being held, was relieved to see that the event was finally over.

“For a moment, I was worried about how things would turn out, but Lilia-san returned safely and Fate and the others followed up for her nicely, so things were brought to a close peacefully.”

[Umu. I also felt flustered during the ceremony, but fortunately, it didn’t turn into a major commotion.]

[Good grief, you guys worry too much.]

“………………”

[Hold yourself back, Lillywood. I know how you feel but……]

As Megiddo casually announced while drinking, Lillywood gave a look that seemed to say “You’re also among those who caused a commotion”, her expression filled with killing intent that was completely unexpected from her usual gentle demeanor, Magnawell restrained her.

While the three Kings were having such a conversation, a palace servant approached them and spoke in a voice inaudible to those around them.

[Seriously, you sure don’t think much, Gorilla-san.]

[Ahhn? If it isn’t Shalltear…… The heck are you doing here?]

[Well~~ I had secretly infiltrated with my clone, thinking I would provide support if Lilia-san seemed to be in trouble, but it turned out there was no need for it.]

Alice, having considered the possibility of Lilia being forcibly teleported by Eden to the venue at a strange moment, had disguised herself as a servant and infiltrated the venue so that she could provide support if needed during her conversation with Kaito.

But then, thanks to Fate’s prompt actions, there was no need for her to take action, so she approached the three of them for a different matter.

[Well, in that case, I’ll just relieve Lillywood-san and Magnawell-san’s frustration.]

[Ahhn?]

[This is a message from Kuro-san. She said she will come and scold Megiddo-san here at the castle later, so please wait there and don’t run away.]

[……Y- You…… You snitched to Kuromueina……]

In response to the words Alice said with a grin, Megiddo murmured with a pale expression on her face, unlike the cheerful demeanor she had before. Kuromueina was the only person in this world who she couldn’t stand up against, and just thinking about the scolding that awaited her made her want to bury her head in her hands.

“……Shalltear, wonderful job.”

[Umu. At the very least, brace yourself for a stern scolding, Megiddo…… Since you’ll be attending Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival later, it’s about time you learn some manners.]

[Gununu……]

As Alice had said, it seemed that Lillywood and Magnawell felt a bit relieved, and smiles appeared on their faces.

Meanwhile, at a place far away from where the Six Kings were, the three Human Realm Rulers gathered and talked.

[Good gracious, that was quite the disaster, young Chris…… However, for Archlesia Empire, this seems to have been a significant plus, and I can’t help but envy you.]

[You’re right. Although my stomach hurts… Considering the economic effects and other factors from this incident, this is something I’m actually somewhat grateful. Especially with the Supreme Gods participating, it left an impression that Archlesia Empire has deep connections with the God Realm.]

[In that sense, it sounds like Symphonia Kingdom has a close relationship with the Six Kings…… Well, I suppose it’s not the time to make sarcastic remarks about this particular incident.]

With a light sigh, Chris lets out a small sigh, causing Ryze to involuntarily smile wryly. Ryze also went through a lot during the previous National Foundation Festival, and with Kaito living in the capital, he frequently experiences stomachaches. Understanding this, even though they usually exchange sarcastic remarks, he couldn’t help but show a sympathetic look towards Chris.

[Mhmm, but with Archlesia’s festival after Symphonia’s being like this, how is our Hydra Kingdom going to celebrate our Founding Festival. Overcoming this insurmountable hurdle…… Isn’t it impossible!? Our Founding Festival is already coming next month, and we can’t organize an event as grand as having all the Six Kings or all the Supreme Gods attend at this point……]

[Indeed, with the current flow of things, there will be many who will be wondering how it will be like for Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival.]

[Haahhh…… I wish Kaito would also come and set up a booth at our Hydra. If that happens, you know, something interesting might occur, don’t you think?]

[Indeed, something might happen, but it’s not like you can ask Miyama-kun to set up that stall, and if something really were to happen, Her Majesty Laguna might also get a stomachache.]

[Mnghhh.]

With Symphonia Kingdom and Archlesia Empire showcasing such lively celebrations for their Founding Festivals, as the ruler of one of three countries in Human Realm, Laguna has the desire to avoid falling behind in terms of attention and prominence.

However, Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival is relatively close to that of the Archlesia Empire’s, with only about a one-month difference between them. The list of attendees has already been finalized, and the application for stalls has been closed.

However, if she doesn’t take some action now, her country will fall significantly behind the other two countries, so Laguna crossed her arms and groaned with a difficult expression on her face.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Is it just my imagination? I feel like a new stomachache flag had just been raised somewhere.]
