Chapter 1180 - Bonds Deepened at the Tea Party ③

[I understand. Thank you.]

After thanking the World King’s subordinate, I proceeded to the door and after walking for a few distance, I found a wooden spiral staircase. I have been to Lillywood-san’s castle many times, but I didn’t know there was a place like this……

With this in mind, I climbed the stairs to a slightly wide balcony, where I could see Lillywood-san’s back.

“Oya? If it isn’t Kaito-san, hello, no, would it perhaps be more appropriate to say welcome here instead?”

[Hello, Lillywood-san. Thank you for the invitation.]

As I stepped onto the balcony, Lillywood-san turned around and curiously looked at me for a moment, but immediately greeted me with a gentle smile.

“No, even with this invitation, I’m not able to offer you any hospitality…… I generally don’t eat or drink, so it would always be like this, where I look at the venue every time the tea party is held.”

[This place’s amazing. It feels like you can see the whole venue from here…… How should I say this…… It feels like a special place.]

“The balcony itself is basically forbidden to anyone other than the Executives, so you could indeed say this place is special. Though I say that, there isn’t really anything unusual about this place, it’s just where I am when the tea party is being held.”

The subordinate who guided me around said that she wasn’t allowed to enter, and as the King and host of the tea party, Lillywood-san must be in a place like this where she sees the venue, so there’s no mistake to call this place as special.

As I was thinking about this, Lillywood-san looked as if she suddenly came up with something and announced with a somewhat happy expression on her face.

“Come to think of it, Kaito-san. Thank you for the fun moment we had at the Harmonic Symphony.”

[Ah, no, I also had fun…… although it was a bit of a surprise…….]

“Fufufu, strangely enough, I myself am not quite sure why I acted impulsively like that…… but somehow, yes…… I guess it would be best described as I somehow felt like it.”

[Well, I also act without thinking quite often, so I don’t think there’s anything strange with that. In fact, I also enjoyed dancing with Lillywood-san, so there was nothing wrong with it.]

“……I suppose you’re right.”

Hearing my words, Lillywood-san’s eyes squinted a little happily, before she lightly indicated the area beside her.

“Kaito-san, you can’t see the venue very well there, right? Please, come this way.”

[Ah, yes. Excuse me then.]

When Lillywood-san urged me to stand next to her, I stood in line next to her…… and found myself looking at a picturesque scenery. In the first place, as Yggfresis originally was a nature city, the scenery in this place was beautiful. Lillywood-san’s castle is also located in an elevated area, and even the venue of the tea party was held in an open area where one can see the scenery. Looking at it from an even higher vantage point, it’s wonderful to see the nature of Yggfresis along with the tea party.

[What an amazing view.]

“If you like it, I’m also happy…… Speaking of which, I haven’t asked you yet, have I? Why are you here, Kaito-san?”

[Ahh, errr, I thought I’d say hello to Lillywood-san, and Camellia-san told me that you’re here.]

“I see, I suppose I’ve had you be mindful of me huh?”

[Ah, no, I did hear that further greetings aren’t necessary…… but I came here largely because I wanted to talk to you too, Lillywood-san.]

There is no lie in those words. I actually was told that a greeting was not necessary, and there was no problem if I went to thank her for the invitation after the tea party was over. So, my main motivation was simply that I wanted to talk to Lillywood-san as well. After hearing what I said, Lillywood-san looked at me in a daze, before she smiled happily.

“……I see, in that case, how about it then? Since you’ve come all this way, why don’t you join me for a cup of tea?”

[Eh? Arehh? I thought Lillywood-san only drinks water……]

“Yes, that basically was the case. But it isn’t like I can’t drink tea at all. When I used to live with Kuromueina and the others, I drank tea several times with them. Ein once praised me for my tea-making skill, so I think I’m pretty good at it.”

[I see…… Well, if it’s all right with Lillywood-san, by all means.]

I was surprised at the unexpected invitation to tea…… but I never had the opportunity before, so I am quite looking forward to drinking tea with Lillywood-san.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [How should I say this…… With Lillywood’s Sacred Tree Festival ? Six Kings Festival ? this time, you could clearly see that Lillywood’s Affection Meter is consistently increasing. That could even be seen from her behavior……]

? ? ? : [It’s a fact that it was increasing after all. I don’t think Lillywood-san’s aware of it because she herself isn’t familiar with that kind of thing, but from what I see, I think her Affection Meter was already quite high. She’s even obviously glad when Kaito-san came to visit her……]
