I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN) - Chapter 1758: Original Blend

On the way back from Elise-san’s shop, a shop suddenly caught my eye as I was walking through the city. Though I say that, it wasn’t that unusual of a shop, just an ordinary general store.

What actually caught my attention was their product, an accessory case with a rose design. When I saw it, I immediately thought of Illness-san.

I wanted to thank her for all the help and advice she had given in creating my original blend, so I thought this would be a good choice.

It’s a small accessory case, but I can tell it’s quite a high-quality item. Also, since Illness-san likes roses, I felt it would be just right for a present.

Once I had decided that, I quickly entered the shop and approached the shelf where the rose-designed accessory case was placed but……

“Completely Made to Order – Price: 5 gold coins”

……Eh? So pricey! I was surprised at the fact that it was completely made to order, but there’s also the price that’s equivalent to around 5 million yen…… It seemed too expensive for an accessory case sold in a general store.

Surprised, I was frozen in shock, but a woman who seemed to be the store manager approached, seemingly sensing my thoughts, and spoke to me.

[Sir, are you looking at the accessory case over there?]

[Eh? Ah, yes. I came here for that but…… it seems like it’s completely made to order huh.]

[Yes. Also, my apologies, but we’re currently booked up, so even if you order today, it could take a few years to receive it……]

[Years!?]

A waiting time of several years, that must mean it’s an incredibly popular product huh…… Is it some kind of famous article?

[Yes. This is a product made by the renowned Rose Princess Rosemary-sama, and because of the producer’s circumstances, we can only accept one order per month. Rosemary-sama is a very moody person, so it would be quite dreadful if we were to offend her.]

[……I see.]

[I also have to place the orders myself…… When I had another clerk place the orders before, she had an extremely displeased expression on her face. To avoid this, I, the manager, always place the orders, so taking the effort involved into consideration, we have limited the number of orders.]

Wasn’t she just nervous and tense in front of someone she had never met before? Besides, rather than moody, she’s extremely kind, but with her stranger anxiety and the tense expression she always makes, it gives the public the impression that Rosemary-san is a haughty and moody person.

However, hmmm. I wonder if I can buy this if I negotiate directly with Rosemary-san? This shop seems to be being strangely careful and limits placing orders to once a month…… of course, it’s possible that Rosemary-san may have her own reasons, so I won’t ask her if it’s unreasonable, but just in case, let’s ask her.

After leaving the general store, I sent out a hummingbird to Rosemary-san. Unfortunately, my magic power doesn’t allow me to write out all the details of the situation, so I sent out my message through multiple hummingbirds.

Thereupon, I immediately received a response stating “It’s something easy to make, so if you want, I can prepare as many as you need”, so after expressing my gratitude in my reply, we ended up exchanging messages a few times. Since it was mentioned that she could prepare it within a day, I decided to pick it up tomorrow.

At that time, I suppose I will also bring her some of my tea brand products and my original tea blend with me.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Wait a moment there! Regardless of the original blend, isn’t the situation heading towards having a flirty tea party with Illness!?]
