I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN) Chapter 2096: Date Plan Execution ㉝

Chapter 2096: Date Plan Execution ㉝

I got home late, so today's chapter is a bit short.

For now, deciding to enter the largest general store in sight after looking around, we made our way to the entrance.

That said, it's hard to shop inside a store while holding hands. We can't pick up items, and in a somewhat large store like this, moving around with three people side by side would bother the other customers.

[Alright, I'll let go of your hands before we go in.]

[Eh…… Ah…… Yes.]

A- Arehh? Just now, Olivia-san looked like a forlorn puppy for a split second…… Was she sad about letting go of my hand? That sudden, adorable reaction is just unfair.

[Ah, no, it's just temporary! It would inconvenience other customers if we shopped while holding hands after all. Once we're done and head to the next place, we can hold hands again.]

[Y- Yes! …Haehh!? Ah…… Aahhhh……]

When I hurriedly explained, Olivia-san gave a relieved and adorable smile. But immediately after, she seemed to realize something, turned pale, and started trembling.

Hmmm, having talked with Olivia-san a few times, I feel like I know her well enough…… to figure out why she reacted this way.

[M- My deepest apologies! To react so shamefully as to beg for Miyama Kaito-sama's benevolence, and even troubling you to show me consideration……]

[Okay, stop. It's not some grave sin or anything like that, and there's no need to apologize. Honestly, I'm also at fault for not discussing this sort of thing beforehand. It's not that I changed my plan because of your reaction; I already intended to do this. So there's absolutely no need for you to feel responsible…… got it?]

[Y- Yes…… A- Ah, such compa.s.sion…… This warmth, this radiance, Miyama Kaito-sama truly is the embodiment of kindness!]

[……You're exaggerating.]

I interrupted Olivia-san before she looked like she was about to kneel down in a dogeza and a.s.sured her there was no need to feel guilty…… For now, that managed to stop her from acting as if she had committed some terrible crime.

However, in exchange, she now seemed overcome by emotion…… looking at me with eyes full of what could only be described as maximum devotion, as even naturally started praying. No, no, we're in front of a store, let's just get inside quickly……

After persuading Olivia-san, who had started praying, we finally let go of each other's hands and entered the general store. The shop had a stylish atmosphere, focusing mainly on small items, with lots of tabletop decorations and other similar pieces.

[Oh, it's so stylish~~ There are plenty of cute decorations here…… They might not suit the vibe of my shop, but they’d be nice for personal use in my room. Maybe I should buy a tabletop decoration or two.]

[Tabletop decorations, is it…… What kind of benefits do these items provide?]

[Well, it's not really about benefits. You place them on desks or shelves, and they make the s.p.a.ce look prettier or more stylish. They're visually pleasing. Even just having one can change the vibe of a desk. Plus, some of them are functional, like pen holders or memo clips.]

[I see! As expected of Miyama Kaito-sama! Your words exude wisdom, and I feel like my understanding has expanded.]

Olivia-san, with her unmatched level of devotion, seems to take everything I say as impressive. Even now, she's looking at me with eyes full of genuine admiration.

Compared to when we first met, her expressions have become more animated. Having her direct such openly favorable expressions at me makes me feel happy, but a bit ticklish.

……Well, I guess that’s just very much like Olivia-san……

Serious-senpai : [This one has a dog-like trait too……? No, come to think of it, she certainly seemed like she'd get along quite well with Anima.]
