After admiring the scenery with Olivia-san for a while, we returned to the Cathedral, thanks to Olivia-san’s ability to return to the Cathedral instantly, and then went back outside again, checking out the other stores on the way to Kaori-san’s restaurant.
We were quite leisurely and took our ti walking, so by the ti we arrived at Kaori-san’s restaurant, the sun had set and it was ti for dinner.
When I opened the door, Kaori-san, who was washing dishes at the counter, noticed my visit and gave a bright smile.
[Welco, Kaito-kun! You ca just at the right ti, I’ve just finished serving the custors…… Now, now, co sit here at the counter.]
[Excuse our intrusion then. I was wondering what to do if it was too crowded to sit down, so I’m glad.]
[Ahaha, we’re a Set-al Restaurant, so it’s usually crowded during the dayti when there are many tourists. We don’t handle much alcohol, so we’re rather empty at night.]
Now that she ntioned it, her shop isn’t a bar, but a set-al restaurant, so it probably wouldn’t be crowded at night. Since the food she serves are cuisines from another world, tourists would probably be her main clientele, and there are probably not many tourists walking around during the late hours of the day.
With this in mind, I sat down at the counter with Olivia-san, and there Kaori-san looked at with a grin on her face.
[Even so, you’ve co with quite the beauty here. I sure can’t underestimate you, Kaito-kun~~ Is she your girlfriend? Even so…… Hmmm, have I seen her sowhere?]
[Ah~~ No, she is……]
Having said that much, I paused, moving my gaze around the store. I had told Kaori-san that I was going to see the Founder Olivia-san today, but I checked just in case there were other custors in the restaurant, because there was a possibility that it would cause a commotion.
But fortunately, there seed to be no other custors, so I felt relieved and answered Kaori-san’s question.
[Look, I ntioned about it during the day, right? That I’m going to see Founder-san…… This is the Founder, Olivia-san.]
[……………………]
[Ahh~~ It’s Founder-sama huh, I didn’t recognize you because you’re wearing a different outfit than your usual-Eeeeeehhhhhhh!?]
Following my introduction, Olivia-san slightly nodded in greeting, to which Kaori-san responded with a smile, but then she suddenly backed away from her.
I had a hunch about this earlier, but it seed like she really passed my words earlier off as a joke.
[F- Founder-sama!? W- W- Why is Founder-sama…… Abababa, y- your words earlier weren’t a joke!?]
[I had thought that might be the case, but you really thought I was joking huh.]
[Of course I would think of it like that! She isn’t soone just about anyone can e, you know!?]
Kaori-san seed to be in quite a panic, but after a little while, she regained her composure, and with a sowhat stunned look on her face, she spoke.
[……Haahhh…… However, I see, I kinda get it now.]
[You got it? What is it?]
[Kaito-kun’s soone related to the shrine! You were rich, so maybe one of the Gods liked you and gave you a good position? Because of that, you have co here to say hello to Founder-sama.]
Hmmm, I guess she really isn’t off the mark. In a broader sense, you could say that I’m related to them, and as for being liked by a God, that’s exactly right.
As I was thinking about this, Kaori-san looked a little angry as she called out to .
[However, that won’t do, Kaito-kun.Of course, otherworld cuisine may be rare, but you don’t entertain your boss in a Set-al Restaurant…… No, of course, I’ll do my best to show my skills, but I don’t know if she’d be satisfied, you know? Wouldn’t that affect your career prospects?]
[……Shopkeeper, can I tell you sothing?]
[Yesh!? W- W- What is it?]
At that mont, Olivia-san spoke up for the first ti, and Kaori-san, who was spoken to, straightened her posture, looking rather tense.
Judging from her attitude, I suppose Olivia-san, the representative of the city, might be sothing like a King of the Friendship City.
[I myself have a lot of things I don’t know, and I don’t consider ignorance to be a sin. However, there were words you said that I couldn’t overlook, so I would like to correct them.]
[C- Correct? What is it?]
[Listen here, okay…… If you are referring to our position, “Miyama Kaito-sama would be my superior, and I, his subordinate”.]
[Eeeehhhh…… W- Why…… Who exactly is Kaito-kun? Is he a fixer? The shadow ruler of the world?]
[I suppose that’s generally correct.]
[No, no, no…… That’s completely wrong.]
The story is getting outrageous, so I hurriedly corrected them.
No, wait a mont…… If I consider Alice as the real shadow ruler of the world…… Doesn’t that an their words weren’t exactly wrong?
Anyway, I feel like I should properly explain this matter first.
