I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN) Chapter 1757: Original Blend ⑥

Chapter 1757: Original Blend ⑥

There’s nothing more I can do about the launch of our new brand, so I just have to leave it to Anima and the others and wait for the results.

What could the actual situation be though? I know that I’m reasonably well-known among the n.o.bility, and this tea brand will be a luxury brand aimed at the wealthy and the n.o.bility in terms of the prices of the products we handle.

However, in this case, fame is largely due to my lovers and friends, who held power and authority in various fields, rather than to me personally.

The fact that I have the Blessing of the Creator G.o.d s.h.i.+ro-san, and have close relations with the Supreme G.o.ds and the Six Kings is definitely the main reason why I’m famous.

That’s why I’m not quite sure how things will turn out in this case. I certainly gave Kuro and the others my original tea blend, but I don’t know how they will react to a tea brand that I’m not directly involved with.

Under Anima’s advice, I have also asked them to contact either me or Anima when they want our branded goods, teacups or tea leaves, instead of going to the shops or trading companies we have connections with, so they don’t have to go and buy them there.

I did ask Ein-san and Jutia-san to advertise our brand, so I think I can expect the tea aficionados to visit our connected shops and buy our tea products, and as Lilia-san has said, my brand mark…… or rather, Nebula and Illness-san’s creations that were on sale has become a trend among the n.o.bility, so I think it will become somewhat popular. Given that the quality of the products actually was good and even praised by experts like Ein-san, there are factors that can be appreciated by connoisseurs as well.

The extent to which my name value will actually influence that is something that concerns me. If it doesn’t affect it much, then there’s no problem, but I’m worried that people might have some misunderstandings like “this is the favorite tea brand of the Six Kings or the Supreme G.o.ds” or something along those lines.

[———is what I was thinking, but what do you think?]

[Yeah, I have a lot of things I’d like to throw my tsukkomis at, but first, I’d like you to explain why you’re asking me, a genuine coffee supremacist, for advice.]

[……We’re drinking tea at the moment though.]

[Isn’t that because Human-san brought me tea!?]

[Ahaha, I suppose so…… Well, I felt that Elise-san would give me an objective opinion…… so I came to ask you while bringing my original tea blend. Besides, with how kind and gentle Elise-san is, I thought it would be easy for me to consult with you…… What’s with the repulsed look on your face?]

[I think my reception of you has been rather unwelcome though, so I couldn’t help drawing away from Human-san, who’s having such an impression. What, you one of those perverted m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.ts? I would prefer if you don’t get me involved in anything related to your fetishes.]

[Please excuse me from such harsh misunderstandings.]

Even though she claimed to be unwelcome in her reception, when I visit her like this, she responds normally. Also, despite claiming to be a coffee supremacist, she brewed the original tea blend I brought her, so I believe she’s a genuinely kind person.

However, if I tell her this, I think she’ll give me a repulsed look on her face, so I’ll just keep quiet about this. I mean, Elise-san’s remarks may indeed seem harsh and unwelcoming, but in fact, that isn’t the case.

She never turns me away without listening to me, she brews me a cup of coffee every time I come to visit and at least keeps me company while we’re drinking our coffee, and if I’m worried about something, she’d often say things like “It’s annoying seeing your gloomy mug in front of me, so speak up already” and would willingly listen to my concerns.

If I’ve got good timing, she may even treat me to her home-cooked meal or tell me my fortune…… Even with all the things she says, I think she’s the caring type.

[……Haahhh…… In the first place, it’s pointless just thinking about it. You’re talking about Anima-san from Human-san’s place, right? That person seems to be quite involved in various investments and providing advice to businesses, making her well-known in economic circles, right? If that’s the case, she probably has already considered the influence of your popularity. She likely has plans in place to handle your tea brand gaining unexpected popularity, so it’s unlikely that the amateur Human-san would have a moment where you’d have to step up.]

[I see…… Indeed, if you put it that way……]

[In the first place, Human-san is like that place’s owner, or at least someone in a high position, aren’t you? If that’s the case, you should just stand firm and delegate the tasks to your subordinates. Well, I understand you’re all excited because you’re establis.h.i.+ng your own brand for the first time. I remember feeling quite elated on the day I opened my shop as well. It’s just, if Human-san is that fl.u.s.tered, your subordinates will end up having to be considerate towards you, so it’s better you vent those kinds of worries or concerns in a place like this, while back at your home, you stay calm and entrust the tasks to your subordinates.]

That kinda sounds like she’s saying she’s open to when I want to complain or seek advice, and she was indeed giving me useful advice at the moment.

[I’d at least hear you out while you’re here. If you still have other worries or concerns, out with it. At the very least, I’ll accompany you until we finish drinking this tea.]

[Thank you. Then, since we’re at it…… Ahh, but before that, how was the tea?]

[It’s not bad. Its flavor feels like something that would be popular with girls…… I’m a coffee supremacist though.]

As I expected, Elise-san, who said such a thing with a wry smile, really feels like a kind person.

Serious-senpai : [In actuality, Elise seriously is one of the most decent among the Ten Demons……]

? ? ? : [Isn’t it more like the others are just that bad?]

Serious-senpai : [Is that really something you ought to be saying……]
