I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace - Chapter 1677

In a room in the Royal Castle of Hydra Kingdom, King Laguna was looking out the window with a stunned expression unimaginable from her usual self, her mouth so wide open that her jaw would fall off.

Of course, the cause of the incident was the humongous letters that had just appeared from under the sea and ascended to the skies. That said, she is also a veteran warrior. After a few moments, seemingly having realized something, she began to ponder…… before holding her head in her hands.

[……W- W- W- What am I supposed to do here!? If they do such a thing in such a flashy manner, how am I supposed to gloss over that…… Rather, in the first place, what the heck was that!? That seemed like letters from Hikari’s world……]

[That’s definitely Shallow Vernal-sama’s doing. From what I heard from Kaito-san, Shallow Vernal-sama seems to like making those giant letters appear, and apparently does it frequently. I remember seeing it several times myself.]

In response to the shaken Laguna, Lilia, who in the end, was unable to escape…… currently together with Laguna in the office due to her strong request, murmured. While her expression showed surprise at the unexpected situation, Lilia seemed relatively calm compared to Laguna, perhaps due to being somewhat accustomed to such abrupt events.

[It’s a good thing that Shallow Vernal-sama was in a good mood……. but how am I supposed to explain that to the citizens? It’s something that people can misunderstand as terrorism…… but Shallow Vernal-sama is essentially acting incognito…… Putting aside whether she intends to keep herself concealed from others, as she’s currently going around incognito, I’m unable to bring up her name to others……]

[I think it should be fine. As I mentioned earlier, that style of expression is frequently used by Shallow Vernal-sama. In that case, it’s not unreasonable to assume that Chronois-sama and the other Gods are aware of it, and they’ll likely take swift action to address the situation…… Wouldn’t it be a good idea to push through with it being part of the Founding Festival?]

[Ohh! As expected of young Lilia, you’re calm even before such a situation.]

[……It’s a sorrowful story, but my experience in dealing with such situations is on a different level. Also, I’m saying this as someone experienced…… but I think this is only the beginning.]

[Can you not say such frightening things……]

Lilia is someone who has overcome various stomach-aching events in the past, so to some extent, she has a tolerance for them. Well, speaking of this particular situation, it’s primarily Laguna who is suffering from stomach troubles, and Lilia, who is in the position of a guest, has relatively less harm directed at her, which contributes to her composure.

Even though under normal circumstances, this should almost be entirely unrelated to her, but being put in a position similar to Laguna’s counselor and thus being significantly affected is nothing short of amazing.

Meanwhile, the three Supreme Gods who were waiting in the sky above saw the huge letters and immediately began to act.

[It appeared much earlier than expected. It seemed that those letters were just for show, not having any actual substance to it. It had no impact whatsoever on the ocean…… So it’s possible it was produced with Illusion Magic.]

[It’s a relief that she hadn’t actually created a physical object. Her producing such a thing would have been a bit cumbersome…… God of Time and Space!]

[Yeah, we will deal with this situation according to Case 47. God of Fate, I’m counting on your support with your Authority.]

As Lilia had predicted, the Gods had also predicted that Shallow Vernal would express herself using such 3D letters, and they had already prepared a response for each pattern.

After the three of them finished checking quickly, Chronois quickly turned to the High-ranking God who was waiting behind them. The long-haired woman with her eyes covered by a large cloth is the God of Thoughts, Omoikane, a God under Chronois’ direct supervision, serving as a conduit for communication towards the High-ranking Gods and Low-ranking Gods.

[God of Thoughts, it’s Case 47!]

[Understood.]

Hearing Chronois’ words, Omoikane immediately put her hands together, seemingly praying. With her Authority, the High-ranking Gods and Low-ranking Gods are now in sync with each other’s thoughts, allowing them to share information in real-time.

(Everyone, we are dealing with a Case 47.)

(Understood. Since it manifested in the sea, I will go.)

(Since the sky is also involved, me and God of Ocean will handle it, so we’ll require replacements in our current position……)

(They’re already on their way. Both of you directly head to that spot.)

After swiftly concluding the necessary exchanges, immediately following, 3D letters emerged from the sea where the enormous appeared earlier, displaying the words “Hydra Kingdom Founding Festival begins” in the language of this world, rising into the sky in a similar manner. Simultaneously, numerous water pillars rose from the sea, accompanied by various performances, including beautiful water arches and more.

“What is taking place in the sea is a production using the latest magic tools. Please be assured that no actual waves will be generated from it.”

Next, an announcement was broadcast throughout the entire Royal Capital using Amplification Magic, summarizing that the earlier display, including the letters from before, was a surprise production using the latest magic tools. Some of the Low-ranking Gods have also already moved to the royal castle to provide explanations to Laguna.

[……For the time being, we’ve weathered the first wave…… roughly……]

[I hope things will go peacefully as it is now……]

[That really depends on Shallow Vernal-sama. We’re in a position where we can only react to her actions, so we could only stay prepared and be ready to respond at a moment’s notice.]

They can’t predict at all what actions Shallow Vernal will take. Despite having Kaito by her side, who can potentially control her actions to some extent, unexpected situations will definitely arise.

Their expressions turning serious, the Supreme Gods shifted their focus back to the Royal Capital.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……She’s the Duchess whose stomach has gone through hell and back…… She definitely got a different look on her face.]

? ? ? : [It’s really amazing how she was supposed to have nothing to do with the situation, but somehow got caught up and ended up in a position where it looks like she’s gonna get involved with everything that happens.]
