Kaori-san seemed to be completely confused, so I tried to be as concise as possible while still getting the point across.
[Kaori-san, to put it very simply, Iām not that great of a personā¦ā¦ I was just fortunate enough to be close with some of the pinnacles of the three realms. Thatās why, the amazing one isnāt me, itās the people I know.]
[Was it my imagination? Kaito-kun, did you just casually say that youāre close to the pinnacles from all the three realms?]
[ā¦ā¦Well, Iām pretty sure weāre close. Everyone comes to visit me for celebrations like my birthday.]
[The Six Kings, the Supreme Gods and the rulers of each country, going to celebrate an individualās birthday? Thatās strange, thatās totally not the norm I knowā¦ā¦ When did I suddenly wander into a new world?]
Looking at me with a distant look, Kaori-san muttered, before, for some reason, a serious expression appeared on her faceā¦ā¦ and she brought the menu to us.
[Iāll ask about this laterā¦ā¦ for the time being, what would you like to order?]
[Thatās quite the switch overā¦ā¦]
[No, well, I certainly was surprised, but this is this and that is thatā¦ā¦ As the owner of a Set-meal Restaurant, I canāt just keep on chattering here while the customers are hungry!]
I thought of this when I met her during the day, but Kaori-san is quite quick with switchovers like this. Somehow, I have the impression that sheās mentally strong.
Putting that aside, itās certainly about time we place our order, so handling one of the menus I received to Olivia-san, I spoke.
[Iāve already decided what Iām going to eat, but which one would you like, Olivia-san? If thereās a dish you donāt know, I can explain to you what it is.]
[I appreciate your consideration. But just as I had said before, I have almost no experience in eating and drinking, so disrespectful it may be, would it be alright if I order the same thing as Miyama Kaito-sama?]
Iāve decided to order the Pork Shogayaki Set Meal that Iāvebeen wanting to eat earlier, so I thought Iād ask Olivia-san what she wantedā¦ā¦ but in a way, it was inevitable that Olivia-san, who hadnāt experienced eating and drinking before I met her, would have no idea what it is that she would want.
[I understand. In that case, Kaori-san, weāll have two Pork Shogayaki Set Meals.]
[Yeeeeesā¦ā¦ Rather, seriously, Kaito-kun is in a better position that I am. Founder-sama is clearly humbling herself to youā¦ā¦ You really are a fixer, arenāt you?]
While looking at us with a shuddering expression, Kaori-san proceeded with her preparations in a brisk manner. While she worked on her dish, she asked me to continue with the story.
[Going back to the topic, are you really acquainted with all the Six Kings and the other bigwigs, Kaito-kun?]
[No way~~ā¦ā¦ is what I would have said if Founder-sama herself wasnāt here. Even though I played the role of Hero, Iāve only had some light greetings with most of themā¦ā¦ Incidentally, among the Six Kings, I have only talked to two of them, Kuromueina-sama and Lillywood-sama. Kuromueina-sama especially was very kind, friendly and easy to talk to, but as for the other members of the Six Kingsā¦ā¦ I was extremely intimidated. I mean, I couldnāt even get close to Death King-sama because I was shaking just looking at her from afarā¦ā¦]
Well, now that she mentioned it, Isis-san certainly had the magic power of death, but Megiddo-san, Magnawell-san and Alice, in her Phantasmal King guise, had this atmosphere around them that makes it hard for people to approach them.
[As for the Supreme Gods, I think I only briefly greeted the God of Time and Space-sama who was acting as their representative. Ahh, but I had asked God of Fertility-sama about emigrantsā special exception for blessing, so I suppose I have talked to God of Fertility-sama a bit?]
[Special exception for blessing?]
[The emigrants from the other world are exempted from the cost of the annual New Yearās blessing. The explanation for this will be given by a Low-ranking God from the country they were summoned.]
In response to my question, Olivia-san briefly explained.
[As Founder-sama said, itās a special exception that allows one to receive a blessing every year free of charge. Due to peopleās immune system and all that, people from the other world are prone to diseases peculiar to our world, and this is a countermeasure for that.]
[Ahh~~ I see, I did receive one of those as soon as I came to this world.]
[Unnn, unnn. By the way, this also exempts us from teleportation costs, so if we go to the reception of the Cathedral, they will send you to the temple of your choice with Teleportation Magic. Thatās why, I go towards God of Fertility-samaās temple every year to receive her blessing.]
[I see, unlike True Blessings, Provisional Blessings expire after a year, so you have to go back periodically to receive it.]
[Right, right. Well, in the first place, itās rare for people to receive a True Blessing. I mean, I just thought of it as some kind of urban legend, one where Iām just wondering if thatās really true. Ahaha.]
Kaori-san let out a sarcastic laugh, to which I gave her a rather drawn-out smile. What should I do? Itās getting harder to broach that topic.
However, I donāt think it would end well if I hid it from her. H- Hmmm, how should I broach this topicā¦ā¦
As I was thinking about this, as if she was conveying to her something obvious, Olivia-san spoke in a matter-of-factly tone.
[Miyama Kaito-sama had received the True Blessing of the God of Creation, Shallow Vernal-sama.]
At that moment, the blunt sound of the collapsed Kaori-sanās head hitting the counter echoed through the quiet restaurant.
