I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN) Chapter 1286: Preparation for Setting up a Stall ①

In this world, it might be obvious, but there’s no such thing as online shopping. So, when you want to shop for something, you have to go directly to the store.Well, it seems that some nobles summoned merchants to their homes…… but anyhow, I often go shopping and have become quite familiar with the streets near my house.But today, the atmosphere somehow seemed different. It’s difficult to describe, but it felt more restless than usual. I mean, this place had always been lively, but today seemed a little different.It feels strange, but then I remembered that Elise-san’s store was nearby, so I decided to drop by.Since Elise-san has a store on this street, she might have some idea of why it feels strangely different.Gathering my thoughts, I arrived in front of Elise-san’s store, just in time for her door to open and Elise-san to appear…… with a blatantly displeased look on her face.[……Geh, it’s Human-san…… What timing for you to arrive.][U- Unnn? Errr, hello.][Yes, yes, hello…… Get out of the way.][Ah, yes.]After she moved me aside with her usual unwelcoming treatment, Elise-san put a sign on the door of the store. The sign read “Temporarily closed today”. Follow current on novelenglish.net

[Ahh, are you going out somewhere? If so, I apologize.][It’s not that I’m going out somewhere…… Ahh, fine. Just get inside the door quickly.][Eh? Can I come in?][You’re gonna be in the way if you just stand there.]I thought about leaving because it sounded like the timing of my visit was quite bad……. but it seemed like she would still let me in the store. For the time being, I nodded to Elise-san’s words and entered the restaurant.[I’m going to brew some coffee, so just sit down.][T- Thank you.]H- Hmmm, the tone of her voice sounded really unwelcoming, but in reality, that was how I normally interacted with her.The feelings conveyed by my Sympathy Magic also told me that she doesn’t dislike me.[So, what is it this time?][Ahh, no, I was just in the neighborhood, so I thought I’d drop by…… Elise-san, errr, since you closed up shop temporarily, you must have something to do, right?][Well, I guess you could say I have an errand to run. I planned to prepare for setting up my own stall this afternoon, so I decided to close temporarily for half a day.] Follow current on novel-online.com

Elise-san explained as she placed a cup of coffee in front of me. A stall? I remember that she had a stall back at the White God Festival, and since we first met at the Six Kings Festival, she may have set up quite a few stalls like that.[Heehhh, when you say stall…… Does that mean there’s going to be another festival somewhere?][……What the heck are you saying, Human-san…… That doesn’t sound like you’re saying a rather boring gag…… You’re seriously saying that?][Eh? Errr……]She’s looking at me with an outrageously astounded expression on her face!? Eh? What’s going on?As I was puzzled, Elise-san let out a light sigh and spoke.[Rather than there being a festival somewhere, you do know about “Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival”, right? It’s gonna be held here, in the royal capital.][I- Is that so!?][……You seriously didn’t know about that? Ahh, come to think of it, Human-san has just come back from the other world for about 2 years. The Founding Festival isn’t held during the year of the Festival of Heroes, so I guess this will be your first Founding Festival huh.][Yes, errr…… I had been thinking the atmosphere on the streets was a little different from usual, but I see, they were preparing for the Founding Festival.][It’s going to be held at the end of the month. Even though there are still a few days before it’s held, everyone is starting to get ready for the festival.]I see, it was the Founding Festival huh…… I had only heard about it being mentioned in passing, but I didn’t know it was coming up soon. Well, when it’s going to be held at the end of the month, there are still more than 20 days before it, so perhaps Lilia-san and the others were planning to tell us when it got closer.

However, I guess that means that Elise-san and the others who would be setting up their stalls would need to get ready soon……[……If you want, why don’t you open up your own stall too, Human-san? Even commoners can open a stall if they apply for it…… Well, it would be a big mistake to count Human-san as a commoner……][A stall of my own huh…… I see, that certainly sounds like fun.][……I may have said something unnecessary. If you’re really gonna set up your stall, I hope you will build it somewhere as far away as my stall as possible. I’d like to excuse myself from all your unnecessary ruckus.]Putting aside Elise-san’s harsh words, opening a stall could be interesting. I could probably make yakisoba or something like that, or perhaps, I could ask someone to help me out and we could work in a stall together.It kinda reminds me of a Cultural Festival, so it feels like it will be fun. I don’t think I really participated back when I was a student, so I’m slightly attracted by the idea of doing this.Hmmm, maybe I should think about this earnestly……Demon Realm : [ ! ? ]God Realm : [ ! ? ]Human Realm : [ ! ? ]Symphonia Kingdom’s Royal Capital : [……It’s over now…… It’s the end……]Symphonia King : [……What is this? This chill I just had in my stomach……]
