At this point, only a few people know that Kaito is planning to open a stall at Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival.
Of course, just like how each country has their information networks, there are also those who have their own personal information networks and who are devoted to collecting information on Kaito, but due to Kaito being accompanied by Alice, who can be said to be the world’s strongest in information warfare, so at the moment, even the intelligence agencies of each country have not been able to obtain accurate information.
There is a possibility that Kaito will open a stall at Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival…… They were at the stage of watching future developments with such vague information at hand.
But of course, there were also those…… who quickly grasped this information using a completely different method.
[……Shallow Vernal-sama? What did you say?][That there is nothing wrong with me going to a country’s Founding Festival?]
[N- No, but that’s…… that would cause a worldwide uproar……]
[And what does that have to do with anything?]
[N- No, it doesn’t but…… of course, Shallow Vernal-sama’s will takes precedence over anything else.]
In the Sanctuary, high above the God Realm, Chronois, one of the Supreme Gods, had a pale expression on her face. For Shallow Vernal, the God of the world, to attend a country’s Founding Festival, even though she almost never visited the Human Realm, it would be quite the big event, to say the least.
With that alone, let alone feeling pain in her stomach, Chronois felt as if a large hole had opened in her belly.
[……U- Ummm, why did you suddenly decide to participate in a Founding Festival?][I heard that Kaito-san is going to open a stall, and that is what I’m aiming for. I’m not interested in that Founding Festival. I’ll leave that to you.]
[……U- Ummm, i- in other words, Shallow Vernal-sama is only going to visit Miyama’s stall, and has no intention of showing up at their Founding Festival at all……]
[That’s right.]
Chronois wanted to curse her inability to faint. But alas, Shallow Vernal is literally an absolute existence in the world. Any objection to her action isn’t plausible…… Moreover, when it comes to situations involving Kaito himself, it was impossible for anyone other than Kaito himself.
Just after Chronois had made a firm vow to contact Kaito as soon as possible and ask him to persuade and stop Shallow Vernal…… a salvation came from someone she hadn’t expected.
The space of the God Realm suddenly cracked open, and with the emergence of light, Eden appeared from the shattered space.
[Shallow Vernal. Please grant me permission to participate in Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival. If my beloved child is going to open a stall, there is no reason why I, his mother, should not visit.]
[……Please keep the jokes at a minimum. It would cause a clamor if a powerful person like you were allowed to participate in a country’s Founding Festival. I will not allow such an act that will cause chaos in the world.]
[……………………]
These were words spoken by the Creator God who had been actively trying to bring chaos to the world, but at this moment, Chronois remained silent, closing her eyes and standing upright with a graceful posture. She remained motionless. Standing in upright emptiness…… She heard nothing. There are no objections to the words and deeds of Shallow Vernal.
As expected of a Creator of her world, her resolute attitude of not overlooking the chaos of the world is wonderful, as she persuaded herself to remain unresponsive.
[In the first place, I had already conceded to you at Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival before. However, to continue to demand more, aren’t you pushing things a little too much?]
[Kuh…… When you say it like that…… Even so, if it’s my beloved child’s stall, wouldn’t you yourself also want to visit it in person?]
[Of course, I do feel that way, but if I think about the inconvenience I’ll cause to Kaito-san, if I truly care about Kaito-san, I can’t take such an action.]
[……………………]
Chronois has not heard anything. She heard nothing. In fact, since she came to the Sanctuary, she couldn’t remember anything and her stomach doesn’t hurt either. She just happened to be here by chance, so she can’t interrupt the conversation of Creator Gods, so she just quietly waited.
[……Y- You were being that considerate of my beloved child…… I see, if my care for my beloved child is being questioned, I can’t argue against it. I will give up participating this time.]
[Yes, that would be good.]
Reluctantly withdrawing, Eden disappeared after apologizing to Shallow Vernal for her sudden visit. And after an indescribable silence, Shallow Vernal calmly spoke.
[As I recall, Fate has bestowed a Providence to the Archlesia Empire, has she not? If that is the case, then it is safe to assume that the country has some connection with the God Realm.]
[Hahh! That’s right!]
[I will allow you and the other Supreme Gods to attend their Founding Festival. I have no intention of going myself, but if Kaito-san is going to open his stall there, it would be desirable to show a certain level of consideration towards the Empire.]
[Understood.]
At Shallow Vernal’s words, Chronois quietly bowed her head. As to be expected of the world’s creator, Shallow Vernal, considering the balance with Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival having the attendance of all members of the Six Kings, she will show consideration for Archlesia Empire. Furthermore, considering the presence of the three Supreme Gods attending the event, she will casually provide support to ensure that the stall Kaito owned together with the Chief of the Wingeds does not become an unnecessarily controversial topic.
Even though any signs of dissatisfaction were absent on her face, lightly holding on to her stomach, Chronois departed from the Sanctuary, swearing in her heart to later ask Kaito to visit Shallow Vernal and follow her up on this matter.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [As expected, when that mad God appears in front of her, even that airhead God would think “If I let her participate, it won’t be good”, and as a result, before she was even persuaded by someone, she decided that she also couldn’t participate……]
