I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace - Chapter 1554

After giving the accessories for Shiro-san, Lilia-san and Sieg-san, I decided to leave giving the others to my other lovers later since the day is already over.

For the time being, I guess I will Anima hers when she comes home, and Kuro, who I expect to come over at night? As for Anima, I heard that she had left because of her investments, so she will be back in a little while.

I asked Caraway to tell Anima to come to my room when she returns, so she should come by when she returns.

As I was thinking about this, I felt the presence of someone approaching with my Sympathy Magic. I don’t usually turn it on all the time, but this time, I had it on because I was waiting for Anima, so I was able to detect her approach.

Well, unlike Detection Magic though, I couldn’t really tell where they are now. All I know is that, coming this way, Anima feels like…… she’s trying to suppress this feeling of excitement from her.

After a few moments, there was a knock at the door, and when I gave her permission to enter, Anima entered the room.

[Master, you wanted to see me?]

[Ahh, welcome home, Anima. Unnn, I have something to tell you.]

[Hahh! Please leave it to me!]

[……Unnn?]

Anima, straightening her back, salutes…… She also feels kinda cheerful, making me some sort of phantom of a dog with its tail wagging, waiting for my next words.

Is this that…….? I didn’t tell Caraway what I called Anima here for, so she may have just gone to Anima, telling her that I called for her, so Anima thought I needed her help.

And now, happy to be relied on by me, she looked really pumped up as she waited for my favor…… my orders……

[……Ahh, no, Anima. It’s not like I have anything to ask you, I just called you because I have something I want to give you.]

[Ahh, I- I see……]

Ah, she deflated. Somehow, even though she’s a bear, Anima really feels like a dog. Even now, she looked like a puppy who thought she’s gonna be taken for a walk, only to find out that she was mistaken. Somehow, she strangely looked cute.

However, Anima immediately regained her composure and asked.

[So, Master. What is it that you wanted to give me?]

[Errr, I was preparing for my stall with Amel-san today, and we decided to make original accessories earlier, so thinking of gifting one to Anima, I made this accessory for you.]

[……Eh? M- Master made this for me?]

What I made for Anima was a necklace. I have given hair ornaments to Anima before, so I took hair ornaments out of consideration…… With Anima’s fighting style being hand-to-hand combat, I also didn’t consider giving her a bracelet because I thought accessories in her hand or arm would become a hindrance.

At first, I was thinking of giving her earrings, but since Anima’s ears have a special shape, it would be difficult for an amateur to figure out what kind of earring would be better, so to be safe, I chose to make a necklace for her.

It was a necklace made from a beautiful brown gemstone called Gran Amber, and I think it fits well with Anima’s image.

When I presented the necklace to Anima, she timidly accepted it. Her expression looked tense, but with how her ears were twitching, I could tell she was pleased.

[……T- Thank you. It’s so sudden that I can’t think of a clever response…… but this makes me happy.]

[I’m glad if Anima is pleased with it. I made it myself, so I know it’s rather shoddy, but I’m glad you like it.]

[I’m really glad! I can’t really verbalize this joy I’m feeling, but I’m certain that my joy is overflowing and won’t stop overflowing!]

[Ahaha, hearing you say that makes me happy.]

Anima had a truly joyful expression on her face, and as I had thought, it really feels like I’m seeing the phantom of a dog vigorously wagging its tail behind her. Seriously, she really feels like a dog.

Even without my Sympathy Magic, her feeling of joy is quite conveyed, which makes me happy as well.

[Speaking of which, I’m changing the subject, but have you had dinner yet, Anima? I haven’t eaten yet, so want to eat together with me?]

[Ah, yes. I’ll be happy to join you!]

Towards Anima, who was happily smiling, I also smiled and as if to escort her, I gently pulled her hand.

Anima seemed startled for a moment, but as her happy smile immediately returned to her lips, she returned the grip on my hand. Just like that, holding each other’s hands, we proceeded to move toward the dining hall together.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Gfuuu…… This is tough…… S- Serious, come quickly……]

? ? ? : [No, it’s not like the next one will be serious even after this arc is over, you know? The next arc will definitely be about Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival, and the only serious thing around would be the serious damage the Stomachache Warriors’ stomachs will be facing.]
