CHAPTER 28-01: TEA PARTY – SEQUEL

A lot more people knew that I was summoned here by the 【Saint Summoning Ceremony】than I thought.

Of course, I didn’t spread it around.

If I tell people that I was summoned here by a ceremony, wouldn’t it be the same as telling them that I was the 【Saint】?

That’s why I definitely don’t go around saying it.

That most likely mean the people who do know found out from the people at the Royal Palace.

The Director and the Captain weren’t the only ones who knew about this, the knights and mages probably knew too, right?

The maids probably also know about it.

The researchers weren’t told so half of them suspected something and the other half didn’t know anything.

I could guess this from the researcher’s reactions.

There was a difference in their reactions probably because the Royal Palace distinguished between those who are trustworthy and those who are not.

The knights and mages are on the nation’s defence force so I think they have to know.

The maids were all people who were gathered to look after the 【Saint】so I’m sure they know.

I didn’t think that Liz would be also be included in the list of people who knew about it.

That’s why I was surprised that she knew.

“So you knew?”

“Yes.”

“Since when?”

“From the beginning.”

“From the beginning…… So you knew from the time we met at the library?”

“Yes. But, it was a coincidence that we met there.”

According to Liz’s explanation, it was really a coincidence that we met at the library.

However, she said that she knew that the 【Saint Summoning Ceremony】had been performed and she guessed from my hair colour and eyes that I was probably a summoned person.

It was an unusual colour to have in this kingdom.

She also said that she was convinced when she started talking to me in the library.

She concluded this from the fact that I could read various languages but I didn’t understand anything about the grammar of it.

It was certainly unbelievable for someone to be able to read something without understanding the grammar behind it.

“The other person is also the same.”

“Really?”

The other person is probably Aira-chan.

Come to think of it, Liz also attends the Royal Academy, doesn’t she?

Are they classmates?

“I’ve heard that she can also read Slantania and the ancient languages, but she doesn’t know grammar or anything like that.”

“I see. Anyway, are you and Aira-chan classmates, Liz?”

“No, she’s a year above me.”

“Oh.”

“Other than that, you also know about her, Sei.”

“Well, yeah.”

I heard about Aira-chan from the maids and Civil Official at the beginning.

She’s the girl who was summoned with me.

Therefore I’m interested in her.

I haven’t seen her since then. I wondered about her sometimes and I was worried about her after all.

“Is she doing well?”

“Well…… She doesn’t seem to be ill.”

Liz looked troubled when I tilted my head at her hesitation.

“Did something happen?”

“Yes, well……”

Then Liz suddenly raised her hand and the maids left.

What’s that? Amazing.

Liz was confirming that the maids were gone while I was admiring her. And then she slowly began to talk.

“Do you remember the time when I told you about that troublesome classmate of mine?”

“Errrr ~……”

Which reminds me, we did talked about something like that before.

If I’m not mistaken it was about a classmate who had the popular guys wait upon her.

I wonder what’s wrong with that child?

Don’t tell me……

“Don’t tell me that it’s Aira-chan?”

I asked and she nodded sadly.

I unintentionally averted my gaze upwards.

“I told you that it was a classmate at that time but it’s definitely Aira-san.”

“Is that so?”

Well, whether she was a classmate or not wasn’t something that Liz could explain in detail.

“I’ve put in a lot of effort to try to solve the problem but it’s not going very well.”

“Were we talking about how it isn’t good for someone to get intimate with men who have fiancées?”

“That’s it.”

“Ah ~……”

I accidentally looked away.

Even in Japan, it was frowned upon to cling to someone that was engaged.

It was the same for those who had lovers too.

However, it was harder for it to become a problem in Japan.

There were many actions that may not cause problems in Japan that could cause problems here.

For example, lifting up your skirt when it’s hot or showing your bare feet to the opposite sex.

I was also scolded by Liz.

Aira-chan might be the same.

If she acted the same way as she did in Japan towards her friends without knowing the standards of them country then……

Huh?

But didn’t Liz and the others warn her multiple times?

“You warned her personally, didn’t you?”

“Other people did but I heard that they told her directly.”

“I see. But nothing changed?”

“She seems to be aware of it now?”

“I see……”

Liz asked about it so I told her what I was thinking about before.

I told her about the degree of difference in problematic actions between Japan, the country that Aira-chan and I were from and here.

Japan was more lenient compared to here.

Aira-chan might not know that.

“I don’t think she’ll get it if you just told her to think about the person that they are dating or it would be a problem for you to get along with men.”

“Is that so?”

“I also realized when you told me, Liz. Well the boys around her might have told her about it.”

“They didn’t.”

Liz said clearly even though she was laughing as if she was troubled.

It didn’t show on her face but I felt that she was clad in a scary aura and chills ran down my spine.

I couldn’t see it but it felt like a black aura was covering her back.

Mhm, Liz-san?

What’s wrong?

“If they were that considerate then it wouldn’t become the big problem it is today.”

“Th-that’s true.

You are quite right.

It’s just as she said.

Liz said in a somewhat appalled voice. How scary.

But why was she so angry?

I thought and remembered what Marie-san had told me.

Which reminds me, Liz’s fiancé is……

“Hey, don’t tell me your fiancé is also in that group of boys?”

“Yes.”

The answer to my timid question was YES.

I want to think that the black aura growing behind her is just my imagination.

“Liz, you’re fiancé is that, right? Mm……”

“It’s Prince Kyle.”

I could only laugh dryly at that predicted answer.

I see, that is her fiancé, huh?

“I’ve heard that he’s caused you extreme displeasure.”

“Mhm? Yeah……”

I could only laugh when I remember what had happened when I was summoned.

Yeah, serious, that.

Liz smiled stiffly and correct her posture.

She was looking at me really seriously.

“I will apologise on His Highness’s behalf for what happened at that time.”

“Huh? It’s not something that you should apologise for, Liz.”

“But……”

“It’s fine. It’s not your fault.”

I somehow laughed and appealed to Liz that it wasn’t her fault because she still looked anxious.

I can understand apologising on behalf of your fiancé but Liz didn’t do anything wrong so I didn’t know how to respond to her.

“Let’s think of a way to solve the Aira-chan problem?”

“Oh Sei……”

I would be stumped if we kept talking about the Prince so I forcefully changed the topic.

Liz seemed to have noticed my intention and mumbled in worried tone but she didn’t push the topic.

I appreciated her subtlety.

From there, we talked about how we should improve the circumstances around Aira-chan.

We exchanged various ideas and before we knew it a lot of time had passed.

We had finally found a way to solve the problem. It should be fine if I leave the finer details to Liz, right?

Thus, my first tea party ended without a hitch.
