At any fee, I calmed Kaori-san down, gave her the three silver cash, accepted the bottle of alcohol and put it away in my magic field.

[……Uuuu, thanks for buying it off me.]

[I guess you’ve gained quite a profit from that huh?]

[No. I sold it to you at almost the same as the purchase price, so I didn’t make any profit. In fact, I’d say it’s a bit of a minus?]

[Eh? Are you okay with that?]

Seeing Kaori-san being deeply relieved, I requested Kaori-san, however she replied that she had nearly no revenue from my buy of that bottle of alcohol.

Although she went out of her manner to purchase such an costly product, was it proper to promote that for such a low worth with nearly no revenue? As I thought of this, Kaori-san spoke with a wry smile on her face.

[Rather than that, in the first place, that alcohol doesn’t suit our clientele at all. I mean, the most expensive item on our menu costs 13R,  you know? There’s no way I’d be able to sell a 300R per glass of alcohol along with that. Even those who have the financial resources to afford it wouldn’t go out of their way to drink such expensive alcohol at a set-meal restaurant like this.]

[……I mean, why did you even stock up that kind of alcohol?]

[H- Hmmm, it’s not that I stocked it up because I wanted to. One of my business partners seems to have been having financial difficulties, so they asked us if I could purchase at least one bottle. I’ve known them for a long time, and they’ve always been very accommodating, so I couldn’t say no.]

[Ahh, I see.]

Come to think about it, that alcohol wasn’t on the menu, so I assume Kaori-san was ready for the truth that alcohol wouldn’t promote. She might have really helpful it to me, however she solely requested that considering that she had nothing to lose.

[I’m really glad you bought it. Even though there was no profit, I’m very grateful that I got back the money I spent on the purchase…… W- Well, how should I say this…… Even though I said I would treat you, I feel really apologetic that I ended up receiving more from you, Kaito-kun, like the rice and other stuff.]

[Please don’t worry about it. I, for one, am looking forward to drinking it now that I got some great alcohol.]

[Thank you. However, I don’t really like just receiving things from you as I’m older than you…… Hmmm, I’d like to give you something in return…… That’s right, how about this B- Big Sister go on a date with you?]

Saying this was a mischievously smiling Kaori-san. She was undoubtedly making a joke right here…… however there was apparent embarrassment in her expression, and her voice sounded shrill and nervous.

How ought to I say this…… Relatively than her being dangerous at making jokes…… It felt extra like she’s bombing her personal jokes, as a second of silence immediately arrived when she stated these phrases, as if time had stopped.

[……………………]

[……………………]

Ahh, I do not forget that time when Lilia-san made a joke once we had been swimming on the seashore. It was a whole catastrophe, and seemingly conscious of it, Kaori-san’s face was getting redder and redder.

[……You can laugh, you know?]

[Ahh, no, I’m sorry. I was just a little surprised. I couldn’t react properly and created a weird atmosphere, so I’m rather sorry on my part.]

[Kaito-kun, you’re a kind person huh.]

The ambiance has change into a bit somber, however it’s most likely a good suggestion to modify to a different matter with out dragging this dialog out.

[By the way, I’m changing the subject but…… Kaori-san, have you been living in the Friendship City for a long time?]

[Eh? Hmmm, I’ve been here for around 4 years, I think?]

[I actually planned to go here with other people later, so I was wondering if you have any recommendations for places to go sightseeing in the Friendship City?]

It’s not a foul matter for one thing I had thought on a spur-of-the-moment. It will be a reasonably good dialog starter, and if she will inform me a superb place to go, I can really test it out later.

[Let’s see. Since a place like that doesn’t exist other than here, I think you should visit the cathedral at least once. Also, you know the big plaza in the central area? That’s the main venue during the Festival of Heroes. The usual atmosphere over there is different from when the Festival of Heroes is held, and there are various stalls, so I think you will enjoy it.]

[I see, I have an appointment to meet someone at the cathedral, so I guess it would be a good idea to check out the plaza later.]

[At the cathedral? Heehhh…… Kaito-kun has a lot of connections huh. Are you going to meet a priest there or someone like that?]

[……Ahh, errr……]

[Unnn?]

For a second, I hesitated on the way to reply. Actually answering her query would most likely startle her, however that didn’t imply I may simply deceive her.

[……I’m meeting Founder-san.]

[Ahaha, I see~~ That’s amazing. Since that was the case, you really can’t drink alcohol huh.]

[Y- Yes, that’s right.]

Seeing Kaori-san laughing fortunately, I by some means felt that she thought I used to be joking. W- Effectively, I assume that’s good in itself.

Whereas I used to be desirous about this and continuing with my meal, Kaori-san opened her fridge magic software and spoke.

[Kaito-kun, you like yuzu sherbet?]

[Yes, I like them.]

[Then, I’ll bring it out for dessert. I’m pretty confident of its taste, you know?]

[I look forward to it then. Speaking of which, Kaori-san. Can I bring my kouhais to eat here another time?]

[You are more than welcome. It’s nice to be able to talk with the children from my homeworld. Ahh, but you live in the royal capital of Symphonia Kingdom, don’t you, Kaito-kun? That place is pretty far away from the Friendship City, isn’t it?]

[It’s alright. We’ll come with my Teleportation Magic Tool.]

[……I- I see…… so that’s actually something you can privately own huh……]

Severe-senpai : [When somebody says they’ve come to satisfy the highest of your metropolis, after all, they’d assume it’s a joke.
