Together with Shiro-san, we moved to the area where Chronois-san, Fate-san and Life-san are. There seems to be no other High-ranked or Low-ranked God present, so it seems that during the party, it will basically be just the three Supreme Gods who will be waiting by Shiro-san’s side.
[Well, even though we call it a greeting, I’ve already met Shiro-san before the party, so you could say our greetings are over…… I guess it would be more like a light chat?]
[I see…… Well then, let’s have that.]
When Shiro-san said that and lightly waved her hand, a table and chairs appeared…… No, well, nevermind. It’s not surprising for someone like Shiro-san to say something like that.
[Chronois-san, Fate-san, Life-san, thank you for coming today.][Yeah, I think Miyama also has a lot of things you’re unfamiliar with as a first-time organizer, but try not to stress yourself out too much.]
[Kai-chaaaaan! I can’t talk to Kai-chan during the party because I’m assisting Shallow Vernal-sama now, but let’s make out later!]
[You can just leave that to me and God of Time and Space and talk with him at the right moment though…… No, I suppose if you go with that, you may end up worrying about how things are like here and can’t relax.]
While I’m at it, I also lightly greeted the three Supreme Gods. It would be unnatural to come close and not greet them, so there shouldn’t be any issue with the order in this regard.
Just to clarify though, since Shiro-san is my main focus at the moment, I’ll keep my greetings with them brief and then engage in small talk with Shiro-san. As for Fate-san, as she herself suggested, I’ll make time later for her as she mentioned. As Life-san said, trying to force time might make Fate-san feel anxious about Shiro-san, so having it that way might be better.
[Come to think of it, it’s a party with food…… but I don’t often get the chance to see Shiro-san eating huh? When we went on a date to the beach, at the Six Kings Festival, and when we went swimming at the beach with everyone…… I tend to see you eating when we’re near the sea.]
[Now that you mentioned it, indeed. This time too, in a broader sense, you could say we’ve come to the sea this time, so to maintain balance, wouldn’t it be good for Kaito-san to invite me to eat somewhere other than near the sea?][That sounds like fun, but if Shiro-san goes to eat at a normal restaurant, it would cause quite a ruckus…… Ahh~~ Then, for example, eating together in my room might be okay.]
Shiro-san going to a normal restaurant for a meal would cause a different kind of problem from going there with Isis-san. After all, that would cause a commotion and the Gods would shift to a state of high alert, so I can only foresee a future where there would be a big fuss, both in the country where the restaurant is located and in the restaurant itself.
Well, that’s why most of the time when I’ve eaten with Shiro-san in the past, it’s been in situations where there weren’t many other people around…… There was also that time when she made me a bento though.
Anyhow, in that case, it’s perfectly normal to invite her to my house and have a meal together with her there. Well, Shiro-san basically doesn’t eat meals, so there may be no need to force her to eat with me……
[I see, then I look forward to it.]
[……Unn? Arehh? Is it already decided that we’re having a meal together in my room?]
[Yes. I’m looking forward to it.]
[……I- I understand. I’ll think about this again some other time.]
From the quiet, yet undeniable sense of certainty conveyed by Shiro-san, it was decided that next time, Shiro-san would be invited to my house for a meal together.
W- Well, I’m not averse to having dinner with Shiro-san, and I’m actually quite looking forward to it. While I’m at it, how about I serve her my homemade meals…… No, I can only cook simple dishes, so wouldn’t that be rude? In that case, having dishes prepared by the chef would be more preferable……
[Kaito-san, I believe what is needed in cooking isn’t skill, but love.]
[……Eh? Ah, yes.]
[A homemade meal cooked for your lover, done with all your hard work and ingenuity, that must be really wonderful. I’d like to try it once myself.]
A roundabout appeal…… No, rather than roundabout, this feels more like a straightforward request. Since Shiro-san can read my mind, it’s only natural that she’d pick up on the momentary thought of me considering making homemade dishes. It seems like Shiro-san strongly endorses that.
[……A- Alright. I’ll do my best but…… please don’t expect too much.]
[I understand. I’ll look forward to it from the bottom of my heart.]
Arehh? That’s strange, my words aren’t getting through…… I told her not to expect too much, but then she said she was quite looking forward to it.
……At any rate, after this party is over, let’s practice cooking. Even now, I still occasionally cook with the help of someone who teaches me, but let’s try learning how to cook more thoroughly.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [……Next would be that crazy God…… Arehh? But to which Makina would he go? The one recognized in that world as Earth God is her Eden self……]
