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

Chapter 381 - A Problem Appeared Just After Another Ended

The Guide for the Six Kings Festival that I received from Alice was so thick that I wanted to ask if what she had given me was actually a dictionary.

Fortunately, all of us had magic boxes, so we stored them there.

Since it would be annoying to make any more of a ruckus in front of the gate, we decided to enter.

[They would be checking everyone’s invitation over there. If you’re someone’s companion, please pass through after the invitation holder passes themselves.]

After listening to Caraway-san’s explanation, we headed to the place where there were people who seemed to be the gatekeepers. It seemed like there were a good number of people checking the invitations, so I didn’t feel like we would wait too long.

Soon, my turn came around, I took out the invitation from the magic box and showed it to the gatekeeper.

[Yes…… Eh? Black-rank!? T- This “dull chap” is!?]

[………………….]

No, it was undeniably true but……

Just as the gatekeeper said those words out of reflex, I heard the sound of shimmering nails behind me. No matter how I thought about it, that could only be Anima.

Just as I was about to turn around to stop Anima, the gatekeeper was blown away with a thunderous roar, and I saw Pandora-san in the same position where the gatekeeper had been standing a moment ago.

[……That trash is now removed from the invitation confirmation assignment. Let him clean the outer wall.]

[Y- Yes!]

After Pandora-san informed another gatekeeper nearby in a cold voice, she started mumbling.

[……This is why I was against deploying War King-sama’s subordinates. With a job that requires face to face confrontation…… I knew we should’ve assigned one of our people to Miyama-sama instead. For a beast with no manners, how dare he show disrespect to Miyama-sama…… Should I have him chopped to a hundred pieces? No, let’s pulverize him. No, should I go with poison instead? ……Let’s have him drink so much poison that he would wish for his own death…… Let’s also pull off all his fingers. Shall we also have a public execution so that Miyama-sama’s anger will subside a little?]

[………………..]

……Scary.

Pandora-san muttered such in a whisper, as if she was cursing someone. No, from the atmosphere around her, it feels as if she really was throwing a curse at him.

[……Now, now, you’re creeping Kaito-san out…… House.]{br}(T/N: House here is written in katakana. So, it’s like how you tell dogs to sit.)

[Eh? Ah, wait……]

As I was too stunned to speak to her, Pandora-san was taken away by her guardian, Alice.

She was a different kind of scary from Eden-san…… Eden-san would wipe someone out in one shot without any mercy, but Pandora-san would slowly torment them…… She’s someone who should never be offended.

[……I’m sorry for the rudeness, Miyama-sama.]

[Eh? Ah, no…… Unnn?]

As I watched Pandora-san being taken away, before I knew it, an unfamiliar person appeared near me.

A woman who wore her long, crimson hair, as red as blazing flames, in a large braid at the back of her head…… A hairstyle that looks like a scorpion’s tail, and her black upturned eyes looks sharp.

A slit-eyed beauty with a sharp vibe, coupled with a height as tall as Chronois-san’s, bowed deeply to me and said she was sorry.

[I apologize on behalf of Megiddo-sama for the misbehavior of his subordinate.]

[N- No, I don’t really mind…… Umm, that’s why, please…… don’t do anything too brutal to him.]

[Thank you for your generosity.]

[Y- Yes…… Errr.]

This woman seemed to be Megiddo-san’s subordinate, but I didn’t recognize her. She, at least, wasn’t one of the members of the party we had back in Lilia-san’s garden.

As I was wondering who she is…… I heard Eta and Theta’s shocked exclaims from behind me.

[…… A- “Agni-sama”……]

[Mhmm? You two are…… Ahh, you’re the twins who were under Bacchus’ command, that are now serving Miyama-sama, right?]

[Y- Yes!]

[T- That’s right…… desu!]

When the woman called Agni spoke to them, Eta and Theta straightened their backs, clearly looking nervous.

[Fumu, it seems that your magic power has become more refined than before. That’s good…… Keep up the good work.]

[ [ Hahh! ] ]

……Unnn, I can’t follow what they’re talking about at all.

As I was thinking this, Agni-san, perhaps noticing my state, slightly bowed her head again before speaking.

[Excuse my discourtesy. I haven’t introduced myself yet, have I? My name is Agni. Megiddo-sama has bestowed upon me the second name “Hell Fire” and the position of the “Head” of the Five Generals, and I am the one who organizes Megiddo-sama’s subordinates. It would be my honor if you could keep my name in a corner of your memory.]

[Errr, I’m Miyama Kaito. P- Pleased to make your acquaintance.]

With one knee on the ground, just like a knight’s salute, Agni-san promptly introduced herself.

She’s the Head of the Five Generals…… Does that mean she’s the most important person under Megiddo-san’s command? I- I’ve met someone great again……

I- Is Lilia-san not here? She already got in first? Unnn, I guess I would have to explain this later…… I’m sure of it now. My life would probably be in danger.

[I would like to apologize for the rudeness you’ve experienced today again. My apologies, but I still have a lot of work to do. We can talk about the details of other things later.]

[Y- Yes.]

[Well then, if you’ll excuse me. I believe…… you two were Eta and Theta?]

[ [ Hahh! ] ]

[Risk your lives to continue to be Miyama-sama’s shield and sword. Even if it’s only for some time, you’re still considered as Megiddo-sama’s subordinates. If you were to behave poorly, that would also dishonor Megiddo-sama’s name…… Never forget that.]

[ [ Hahh! ] ]

After intimidatingly telling Eta and Theta that with her sharp eyes glaring at them, Agni bowed to me once more before disappearing.

Unnn, how should I say this…… It kind of feels like she’s a military captain…… She was polite to me because I’m Megiddo-san’s acquaintance but…… Looking at Eta and Theta’s reactions, I guess she’s usually quite strict and scary.

However, unnn…… I’ve just entered the place, and I already got caught up in a strange uproar again…… Could it be…… am I cursed or something?

[……I see, so trouble like that happened huh…… You also met Agni-sama, the head of the War King-sama’s Five Generals……]

[……Yes.]

[……No more. I just took my eyes off you for a moment, you know? And yet, for this to happen……]

[My Lady, please get ahold of yourself……]

After Agni-san left, I had my invitation checked again and went inside the gate. When I explained the incident at the gate to Lilia-san and the others who had joined us, she crouched down with her head in her hands. No, I’m really sorry.

[Miyama-sama is black rank…… That means he is the most important guest, right? If he faced any disrespect, it’s only natural that someone in her position would come out to apologize.]

[……As for me, I’m fine with just a normal apology though.]

Hearing Caraway-san’s words, my shoulders slumped with my sigh.

We got a lot of attention like that right from the start…… If it’s possible, I’d like some peace and quiet until we reach our accommodations……

Hopefully, there won’t be any more disturbances…… I’m praying this to you, Oh God.

(Should I do something?)

No, it’s okay. I’m not praying to you. If you make a move, it will cause even more trouble than there already was, so please don’t do anything strange.

(Alright.)

Alright, now that’s one troublesome being sealed…… Did I really…… seal it though? It would be great if that seals the trouble…… it’s most probably impossible though.

Well, I’m sure nothing will happen during the walk from here to the accommodations.

[Oiii~~ Kaito-kuuuun~~!]

[………………..]

Can’t you at least give me a little bit more peace and quiet!? Why the heck did it look like the Underworld King was running towards me with a really cute smile, waving her hand at me!?

Or rather, the surroundings were crazily buzzing, you know!? What happened to your Recognition Inhibition Magic!? Don’t tell me…… Since it’s a festival hosted by the Six Kings…… You aren’t going to use it?

Dear Mom, Dad————- We finally entered the venue of the Six Kings Festival, but it seems that I am loved by trouble. I encountered Agni, the head of the War King’s Five Generals. And then, Kuro comes running towards me with a big smile on her face———— It seems like a problem appeared just after another ended.
