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

Chapter 1617: A Reward for Lilia ⑩

After looking at some dragon models, we decided to take a short break. Lilia-san seemed to have the freedom to modify this world as she pleased through the use of a terminal, so she teleported us to a grassy field, set up benches, and we took a break by sitting there.

[In the first place, it’s only natural since it’s just me and Lilia-san here, but it’s quiet and relaxing.]

[That’s right. Being left alone, away from others is quite comforting. Especially for me, who is usually burdened with the responsibilities of Albert Duchy, so whenever I go outside, I need to be mindful of how I appear to the public.]

Since only Lilia-san herself and those invited by her are allowed to enter this world, there really may not be any place better than this world in terms of resting.

Actually, Lilia-san seemed to be enjoying herself, more excited than usual.

[When you think about it, this really might be the best present there is for Lilia-san.]

[Indeed, I was surprised and my stomach hurt at first, but I really should be grateful to Eden-sama for this.]

For a noble like Lilia-san, a place where she can relax without worrying about her surroundings would likely be quite precious. Well, it’s really unexpected, but Eden-san’s gift is well thought out, or rather, it’s something that suits Lilia-san extremely well.

Come to think of it, Lilia-san did mention how Eden-san once gave her stomach medicines. I guess, in one way or another, it seems Eden-san also appreciates Lilia-san.

[In fact, Lilia-san seemed to be happy today and seemed cuter than usual.]

[Eh? T- Thank you…… Hearing you say that feels nice but…… hmmm.]

[Is something the matter? You kinda have this complicated expression on your face……]

[No, it’s just, I’m older than Kaito-san. I was originally just one year older than you, but due to the time difference while Kaito-san was back in the other world, you can say I’m now two years older than you.]

[I suppose so.]

[That’s why, if you ask me…… I should have this sense of seniority between us, like I would feel like the older lady next door…… but I really don’t feel that way huh?]

Her words weren’t complaints or expressions of her dissatisfaction, but rather just a question asked simply out of curiosity. Among her family dynamics, Lilia-san is the youngest child with Ryze-san as her older brother, but due to the timing of Amalie-san and her siblings’ birth, she’s also referred to as Elder Sister.

[I wonder about that? No, of course, there’s no doubt that Lilia-san is older than me…… but you see, if you exclude Anima, all of my lovers are older than me, and if you add her time as a monster, Anima would also be older than you. And so, when you ask me about this sense of seniority, I might not really understand it well.]

[Now that you mentioned it…… I mean, excluding Anima-san, I certainly would be the youngest among your lovers huh.]

No, I understand that in this context, when Lilia-san talks about a sense of seniority or feeling like the older lady next door, it’s not simply referring to age.

However, when it comes to that kind of discussion, Sieg-san and Dr. Vier would fit more into that category, and being compared with both of them might be a bit challenging for Lilia-san.

However, Lilia-san didn’t really ask me that question so seriously, as she just smiled wryly when she heard my response.

[Hmmm. I guess it would be difficult heading down the older, dependable adult lady route huh.]

[I think Lilia-san is dependable enough though…… but still, rather than someone older, my impression of Lilia-san is really more of a girl my age. Well, even though Lilia-san is older, you just have this atmosphere of someone studying in the same school year as me, which makes me find you easy to talk with.]

[……I see.]

[Lilia-san?]

[Ah, no, umm, that kinda…… makes me happier than I thought…… No, I truly understand that it’s simply about the timing of my birth, but even so…… being the closest in age with you kinda, errr…… It kinda makes me happy.]

Lilia-san, saying that with a bashful smile, is astonishingly cute. Although she understood that there isn’t necessarily any specific advantage being that way, she couldn’t help feeling delighted that she was the one closest in age with me, and the way she expressed her joy itself was incredibly charming, giving me this impulsive urge to embrace her.

However, Lilia-san is quite shy, so if I suddenly hugged her, there’s a good chance that she would get startled, so it’s probably better to give her a heads-up beforehand.

[……Errr, Lilia-san. This might be too sudden, but ummm, Lilia-san is just so cute…… Can I hug you?]

[Hoehh? Ahh, errr…… Yes. Ummm…… I- I’m in your care.]

Lilia-san seemed surprised by my words, but while her face blushed red, she accepted my request, as she gently spread her arms, taking on a posture of waiting for a hug.

It’s needless to say that Lilia-san is a beautiful woman, and I think she’s really cute as a lover. To see such a Lilia-san, slightly bashful yet opening her arms in acceptance…… How should I say this…… The destructive power of such a Lilia-san is quite immense.

Feeling myself being drawn closer by her cuteness, I gently embraced her, to which Lilia-san also wrapped her arms around my back, fitting snugly against my chest.

Her soft, fluffy touch, her pleasant fragrance…… Although I wasn’t hugging her tightly, this moment, as I felt Lilia-san’s body warmth, filled me with an indescribable sense of happiness.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Ghaak…… The simple sweetness is too intense…… The damage from orthodox sugar content is……]

Doctor M : [Are you okay? Do you want to talk about my child?]

Serious-senpai : [Can you not go naturally planning out your pursuing attack!?]
