I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN) - Chapter 1709: Afternoon Found

<Author’s Notes>

I don’t have time today, so today’s chapter is a bit short.

Just when I saw Shiro-san wave her hand, I suddenly found myself in a corridor somewhere. No, it seriously is a mysterious corridor, where even when I looked to the right and to the left, the corridor just kept going on and on.

Ah~~ I see, this certainly is a suitable place for a kabedon…… Do you really want me to kabedon you that much!?

[Yes.]

[……You seriously went and declared it.]

[In the course of learning things, I discovered that there’s this thing called “Gap Moe” in the world. The usually relatively passive Kaito-san aggressively taking the lead would be gap moe.]

Her talking about gap moe with such a serious look on her face really feels out of place…… but well, Shiro-san’s expression hardly changing is just the usual.

For the time being, it seems that Shiro-san is looking forward to the situation where I’m overbearingly taking the lead. No, it isn’t like kabedon necessarily equates to being overbearing but……

[Errr, shall we do it then?]

[Yes. Please give me instructions.]

[Instructions!?]

You want me to take control? In the first place, it’s already quite embarrassing to do the kabedon and doing that with prior thought is even more embarrassing, but if on top of that, I would have to give her instructions……

Eh, no, even though she says I should give her instructions, Shiro-san would just have to stand with her back against the wall…… Hmmm.

[This just came to my mind, but Shiro-san and I are about the same height, aren’t we?]

[We have exactly the same height.]

[With your high heels though, Shiro-san seems to be a bit taller. And so, if we’re going to do a clean kabedon, it might be better for Shiro-san to squat a little.]

[I see, then just this time, I’ll make myself a bit shorter than Kaito-san.]

Soon after she said those words, Shiro-san’s height decreased by about 10 cm…… That’s not what I mean though. No, well, the result is the same as squatting, but seeing someone suddenly shrink in front of me, I’d be surprised.

Somehow, looking down at Shiro-san feels like a new experience for me. Shiro-san usually wears high heels, making her a bit taller than me, so looking down on her like this feels really fresh.

Wait, that aside, kabedon…… It’s not like I really have to slam my hand to the wall, right? That would hurt. A- Alright, let’s do this…… I don’t have to check for any sort of timing. Shiro-san expressed her desire for me to go about this aggressively, so as soon as I’m ready, I should just proceed immediately.

And then, as I pictured the kabedon from my knowledge, I moved my right hand to the side of Shiro-san’s face and placed it on the wall. This would usually be looked at from a side angle when depicted in manga, but when I actually do it, our face gets pretty close…… With her scent wafting into my nose, doing something I’m not really used to makes me nervous.

[……………….]

Shiro-san looks up at me with expectant eyes. Due to Shiro-san lowering her height, it naturally results in Shiro-san looking at me with an upward gaze, making the intensity of her gaze quite formidable.

No, but well, putting that aside…… Ummm…… After I’ve got the kabedon done, what’s the goal then!? I think I’ve at least got the posture right, but what do I do from here? To be honest, it’s only a kiss, isn’t it? However, if it’s just gonna end with a kiss, we don’t really have to do a kabedon…… Ahhh, I don’t know!

<Afterword>

Makina : [Well, my beloved child isn’t really the aggressive type, so he must be quite confused.]

? ? ? : [……No, that guy’s got pretty high attack power against me…… Alice-chan though? He’s definitely the type that could go on the offensive……]

Makina : [No, it’s not that my beloved child got high attack power, it’s just that Alice’s defense power is too weak, which is why things end up like that……]

? ? ? : [Well, I guess that’s true! It’s hard to deny that Alice-chan is a sh*tty noob in love!!!]

Makina : [Well, someone’s being oddly imposing……]

T/N: My area’s got no internet yesterday, so only managed to translate the chapter today.
