I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN)

Chapter 2029: At the New Stores ⑥

Demon Realm, in the forest city of Yggfresis, five people——— Camellia, Rosemary, Tirtania, Ariel, and Jutia———– had gathered around the same table for a casual tea party during their free time, coincidentally coinciding with work commitments.

[Come to think of it, come to think of it, Kaito’s tea brand…… Nifty’s stores open today, right?]

[Aya!? W- Was it today? When I met Kaitokun-san a month ago, he said it would be soon, so I thought it would be in about ten years or so.]

[……Well, for us, 10 years is just a small amount of time, but Kaito-san is human after all.]

Jutia spoke as if she had just remembered, and Tirtania responded with a genuinely shocked expression, to which Camilia pointed out the difference in their sense of time with a wry smile.

In reality, the five people gathered here were all over 15,000 years old, so their perception of time was quite relaxed.

[I expect it to be quite popular…… so Nifty will probably be very crowded, right?]

[I- I wonder? It seems like a high-end shop, so maybe they limit the number of customers quite a bit……]

In response to Ariel’s words, Rosemary replied in a slightly lower voice. Incidentally, among them, only Jutia had applied for a reservation lottery for Nifty’s opening day, and among the other four, while three of them knew that the store would be opening soon, they didn’t realize it would be today.

[The place actually seemed to be really popular. I applied for the reservation lottery, but I couldn’t get in on the first day. The earliest I could reserve was two months from now.]

[Ayaya, are their reservations all booked up?]

[Last I checked, I think their tables four months from now had already been booked.]

[Ah, we could go pretty soon then. Tir also wants to go there once, so Tir’ll make a reservation for another time.]

For Tirtania, 4 months wasn’t too long, and she didn’t seem to mind waiting. However, her only concern was that she could be quite forgetful, so she took out a notepad from her pocket and carefully wrote down that she would apply for a reservation at Nifty.

[Jutia-san, since you applied for the lottery, did you want to go on the opening day?]

[No, no, not really. Thanks to Kaito, I can buy their products directly, so I’m not too anxious about that. I’m a bit curious about the cafe too, so I’d like to go, but there’s no need for it to be on the first day.]

[Tir wants to go, but I’ll be patient and wait for a reservation.]

Although Jutia liked Nifty to the point where she could be called a fan, she wasn’t in a rush because she could order products directly from Kaito or Anima.

She also had a reservation for the cafe available in 2 months, so she planned to wait for that.

At that moment, Rosemary hesitantly spoke up.

[……Ah, errr, I actually have this…… If anyone wants to go, would you like to join me?]

[I didn’t know that existed…… In other words, priority reservation? So they have those huh. Question…… In other words, why do you have that, Rosemary?]

[Errr, Kaito-kun mentioned wanting roses for the shops’ interiors, and I provided flowers and herbariums, and in return, I received this. If I contact them in advance, it seems I can make a reservation for any day I want.]

The small card Rosemary took out had “Priority Reservation” written on it, and as the name suggests, it granted her the right to make reservations preferentially on her desired date.

Rosemary had a deep appreciation for art, and the herbarium she had gifted to Kaito, along with the artwork she created as a hobby, was quite stylish, so Kaito found her to be a very reliable partner for interior-related matters.

As a result, Kaito, wanting to be involved in the interior design too, consulted with her and provided several small pieces of interior decor that could be placed on tables and shelves. In return, she received a priority reservation card.

[I see, I see, I didn’t know something like that existed. That’s nice, that’s nice, since we’re all here, should we go together…… But are five people okay with that card?]

[U- Unn.. I’ve heard there isn’t a specific limit on the number of people. It might be a problem if I brought too many, but I think five should be fine.]

In response to Jutia’s suggestion, the others nodded in agreement, and since they had gathered together, they began discussing their schedule to go as a group.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [I see, a priority reservation card huh…… Speaking of which, if we’re talking about someone Kaito would consult with, there’s also Elise, right? She’d probably have some of those too.]

? ? ? : [Well, that one’s a coffee person, so she probably won’t be too eager to visit a tea brand’s shop. But since she’s quite conscientious, I think she’ll at least use it once since she received it……]
