I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace

After Kuro left, the mansion which had been somewhat hectic, settled down and all of us took a break to drink tea before having dinner.

[However, Kaito-san really never ceases to amaze me. I never thought that I would be inviting any of the Six Kings-sama into my mansion.]

[Ahaha, no, we really only met by chance……]

[Along with your humility, “Kaito-sama” truly is a wonderful person. This Lunamaria thanks the Gods for the good fortune of meeting Kaito-sama.]

[……………]

Receiving Lilia-san’s words she spoke with a wry smile on her face, I replied with a wry smile too but…… A certain person looked strange.

There’s something different about the way she’s calling me, and looking at those shiny eyes of hers…… I feel really frightened for some reason……

[Errr, Lilia-san…… There’s something strange with Lunamaria-san…… Or rather, she looks really scary now……]

[……She must have been that happy after meeting Kuromueina-sama. I’m sure she will return back to normal after a while but……]

It seems that a strange switch had been completely turned on from Lunamaria-san. She’s been like this ever since Kuro left, and she’s been lifting me up like crazy while taking to me, and how should I say this, it’s like she completely lost control of herself.

I decided to ignore Lunamaria-san until she returned back to normal and returned my attention to my conversation with Lilia-san and the others.

[However, Kuromu-sama was quite a fun person to talk with, wasn’t she? Are all members of the Six Kings that friendly?]

[No, Kuromueina-sama…… the Underworld-sama is said to be the kindest of the Six Kings, along with the World King-sama. In fact, it was the first time I had talked with her, but she was really kind just as the rumors say.]

In response to Kurunoki-san’s words, Lilia-san goes on to explain.

Even though the Six Kings are lumped together, their personalities seem to vary from the others…… Well, I have a feeling that the Demon Realm wouldn’t be very viable if all of the kings had the same personality as Kuro.

[Speaking of the other members of the Six Kings—– I’ve never spoken to them directly, so I’ve only heard about them through rumors…… It is said that the World King and the Underworld King are both gentle people and will forgive you if you were slightly impolite to them. On the other hand, it is said no one has lived after displeasing the War King and the Death King. As for the Dragon King and the Phantasmal King, I don’t know for I haven’t heard many rumors about them.]

To summarize what she said, the Underworld King…… Kuro and the World King are the gentle ones, the War King and the Death King are the bad-tempered ones and when it comes to the Dragon King and the Phantasmal King, she doesn’t know.

However, the War King and the Death King—– not only their names, but even their personalities are also very dangerous. They must have a good mood or you may lose your life… That sounds quite scary.

As if she sensed my anxiety, Lilia-san wrily smiled and spoke.

[W- Well, it’s originally impossible for one to speak directly with any of the Six Kings…… Yes, this just an exceptionally unprecedented situation even among the unprecedented situations……]

[……However, if it’s Miyama-senpai, don’t you think he would be able to meet the other Six Kings as well?]

[……Kaito-san, are you trying to kill me with anxiety?]

[No, as expected, there’s no way that could happen……]

Hearing the words Yuzuki-san blurted out, LIlia-san turned pale as she muttered while looking at me, so I replied to her while greatly shaking my head.

As expected, there’s no way I would get to know the other members of the Six Kings. It would be different if Kuro had introduced me to them or something like that, but at least, I now know that Kuro is the Underworld King, so I can just confirm it to her beforehand.

And also, no matter how Kuro acts, she shouldn’t be able to just introduce me to other members of the Six Kings, so there shouldn’t be any problems.

[……That’s true, isn’t it!? You’re not hiding any friendship you had with any other outrageous people anymore, right!? You don’t actually know the other members of the Six Kings, right? The next time you bring one of them home, I’m going to cry, you know!?]

[No, seriously, the only demons I know of are the people that were introduced to me as Kuro’s family, so it will be alright.]

[I- Is that so…… In that’s case, that’s a relief.]

It’s really like Lilia-san has already grown tired of it, asking me looking like the word “desperate” really fits her, but when it comes to the other demons that I’ve met, other than the demons that I’ve already told about them should be Ein-san and Sechs-san whose identities they weren’t able to hear before.

Speaking of the two of them, Ein-san could be said to be a really amazing person…… If she had pledged her loyalty to Kuro like that, I don’t think she will be one of the Six Kings, so she should be fine.

Hearing my words, Lilia-san pats her chest and lets out a sigh of relief.

[In any case, even though I still have that talk with the Goddess of Time, some of the things weighing on my shoulders have disappeared to some extent. I think I should be able to get a good night’s sleep today.]

[……What are you saying, My Lady?]

[……Eh?]

Lilia-san, who is leaning back in her chair as if to say that she’s really tired from the bottom of her hears, was interrupted by Lunamaria-san, who has returned to her normal state before I knew it.

[My Lady, I don’t think that this may be the case but…… Are you thinking that you would be able to get some rest for today?]

[Eh? Eh?]

After muttering those ominous words, Lunamaria-san ignored Lilia-san, who had an anxious expression on her face and left the room. And a little while later, she returned with both hands full of some things that looked like letters.

And those letters, which can be best described as a mountain of papers, were casually placed in front of Lilia-san’s eyes.

[These are the letters that arrived from the royal palace, nobles, merchants and the temple.]

[……Whhhyyyyy……]

[It doesn’t seem like—– you’ve forgotten about it, but it seems that you haven’t thought about it but…… My Lady. Your standpoint now is that of a noble who “had unprecedentedly received the blessing of the Goddess of Time” and moreover, someone whose “residence had been unprecedentedly visited by the Underworld King-sama”, right? Only the royal capital knows of this at the moment, but I’m sure that this will become a huge rumor in the surrounding countries as well.]

[……………]

Hearing the words that Lunamaria-san indifferently told her, Lilia-san’s face became paler and paler.

Yes, just like Lunamaria-san said, Lilia-san is currently the woman of the hour. It was no wonder since she was considered as a noble who had experienced two unprecedented situations in a short span of time and had constructed powerful connections with both the God Realm and the Demon Realm.

[……However, Kuromueina-sama only came here because she was acquaintances with Kaito-san……]

[Even though that may be the truth, the people around won’t necessarily think so. A duchess with connections to the beings near the pinnacle of the God Realm and the Demon Realm…… I’m sure that there will be lots of people who would want to befriend with My Lady. We’ll probably get dozens of such letters in the next few days.]

[……………..]

[Therefore, I think you should go read these letters “from today” and begin dealing with them.]

[……………..]

Lilia-san’s expression has been completely dyed in the color of despair.

There are so many letters in there that it seems like they’re nearly a hundred, and honestly, I think that just looking through them would be quite a challenge. If she also need to write her replies to them, I don’t think she would have time to sleep properly.

[……No more…… Kaito-kun…… I hate you……]

Lilia-san, who is hatefully looking at me with eyes completely filled with tears, quickly turned away and sipped her black tea. Somehow, I’m really sorry, Lilia-san. However, there’s nothing I can do about it.

Dear Mom, Dad——- I understand that almost half of it was my fault, but Lilia-san—– she’s really having a hard time.

<Author’s Notes>

He did say that there’s no amazing ones among the demons he know…… but what about the existence that’s equal to Kuromueina (the Underworld King)…… For example, how about Shallow Vernal (a God)…… Ahhh……
