A leisurely chat over sukiyaki. This time, Alice didn’t eat a large amount of the food served, and was instead eating at a leisurely pace…… Unnn?
[Alice, where did you get that pot from?]
[Eh? Ahh, please don’t mind it. I don’t want to trouble Kaito-san, so I make the part I eat a lot separately.]
[I- I see…… Wait, you’ve already finished eating!]
Surprisingly, in addition to the sukiyaki we were eating, it seemed that she was also making her own sukiyaki, eating from the pot like it was some small plate. Even so, it seems like she’s also eating from the sukiyaki I made from time to time.Well, her aside, we have a nice and relaxing atmosphere.
[……Whoa there, Kuro-san. Even if you try to be sneaky, I won’t let you do that, okay?]
[Ahh, my baby castella!]
[Please stop trying to shove baby castella into everything.]
[I’ve been telling you, baby castellas have infinite possibilities. So, by combining sukiyaki and baby castellas, I should be able to make sukiyaki baby castellas.]
[No, they won’t combine. You would just end up eating sukiyaki and baby castellas together.]
And just as Kuro was about to commit baby castella terrorism again, Alice stopped her. I’m not sure if I could say Kuro had learned from her past mistakes or not, but she was now secretly trying to put baby castellas in front of Alice without declaring it, but as expected of Alice, she had foreseen her actions and blocked it in advance.[Ah, that’s right. Kaito-kun, here. Ahhn.]
[Eh? Ahh, thanks……]
[Wait, Kuro-san…… What are you suddenly doing?]
Kuro offered me meat as if it was natural, so I reflexively thanked her and ate it. Come to think of it, I think Shiro-san did the same thing when we had barbecue at the beach before. Even when the two of them were like that, they may have some similarities between them.
[Well, for the time being, I just thought I would have to do it once. Shalltear, you doing it too?]
[N- No, that kind of stuff…… I’d leave that to when it’s just us……]
[Shalltear, even though you’re usually like that, you sure are bad with things like this.]
[Indeed, I can’t see even a hint of her usual shamelessness.]
[……I’d rather ask you more about your assessment of how I usually am but…… L- Let’s change the subject.]
Perhaps deciding that it would be a disadvantage to continue this topic, she unabashedly diverted the topic. Seriously, this guy is probably too weak when it comes to topics like this.
[……Speaking of things that happened recently, Isis-san’s place has become quite lively, hasn’t it?]
[Ahh, you’re right. With her subordinates gradually increasing, it seems like Isis was also having fun.]
[She now has 5 people in her camp. There’s also her pet Eul.]
As Alice said, Isis-san’s place has become lively within a short time, and she gained 5 subordinates, Iris-san, Polaris-san, Sirius-san, Rasal-san and Spica-san, and a pet, Eul.
Every time I meet her, she seems to be really happy and talks about various things, and just listening to her talk makes me happy.
[Even so, that’s an unusual group of people she has huh.]
[That, she has. Regarding Iris, well, let’s put her aside since I’m the cause of that…… but there’s a Witch who broke her racial limits even though she wasn’t a Special Individual, an Insectoid Swordsman who wields a demonic sword I made as a joke in the past, a Necromancer from the Dark Forest, and a Blue Crystal Flower Spirit that was thought to not exist…… And then, there’s also that physically stable 10-tailed Mystic Silver that maintained its ego…… Somehow, doesn’t it feel like that? You know, that. Isn’t it that she got influenced by her lover? There are many unprecedented existences around her.]
[Ahaha, it’s definitely Kaito-kun’s influence. Kaito-kun also has a lot of weird kids like Bell-chan, Lynn-chan and Nebula-chan after all.]
[……I can’t really argue with that.]
Indeed, now that she mentioned it, there are many people with special circumstances in my place. Anima reincarnated from a Black Bear, Bell, a Special Individual Behemoth, Lynn, a White Dragon undergoing a special evolution, and Nebula, an unusual World Tree Spirit…… Unnn. There are many beings with strange circumstances back home.
[I feel like Kaito-kun’s place would still grow though~~]
[Please stop with those unpleasant things. Though I say that, there’s no way anything even stranger than those back in his home would come, right? Kaito-san had already interacted with almost everyone well-known in the world……]
[You’re right…… Those well-known in the world…… right?]
[Seriously, can you stop saying ominous things? You’re gonna kill my stomach here……]
No, well, I certainly agree with Alice here…… As expected, it would be hard to have more special beings, and I would like it if you’d excuse me from that happening.
Well, though I say that, there’s almost no one among them related to other worlds, and I don’t think that’s gonna happen……
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [There is though. That Ultimate God who originally reigned at the top of numerous worlds……]
? ? ? : [He sure raised a really unpleasant-looking flag.]
