Chapter 1675: Re: Founding Festival ⑦

In one corner of the Royal Capital of Hydra Kingdom, overlooking the entire Royal Capital with a serious expression up in the sky, were the three Supreme Gods: Chronois, Fate and Life.

After having arranged the high-ranked and low-ranked Gods in various locations since the day before in preparation for the Founding Festival where Shallow Vernal declared she would be having her date with Kaito, they had gathered for a final check as the time for the event that was about to begin.

[As expected, the venue only has a certain set of scale. It’s impossible to assemble all the Gods like we did back in Symphonia, and there are also the regular participants in the event.]

[With my Authority, I made it so the people were generally unable to notice, approach, or speak to Shallow Vernal-sama…… However, there’s nothing I can do in situations where Shallow Vernal-sama herself approaches them.]

[We can only be helpless in that aspect. Shallow Vernal-sama’s will takes precedence over everything else. It’s just, my concern would be the possibility of them suddenly teleporting to another location, similar to what happened last time, which could potentially delay our response. I think we should prepare for contingencies as much as possible……]

What comes to the minds of the three is the memory of Shallow Vernal’s previous date in the Symphonia Kingdom, where despite their meticulous preparations, Shallow Vernal’s airheadedness got triggered, suddenly deciding to move the date towards the beach, and resulting in most of their efforts being in vain. This time, they made various assumptions to ensure that such a thing would not happen again.

After discussing several future patterns and concluding that there shouldn’t be a problem to some extent, Chronois spoke.

[It’s about to begin…… I hope things go off without a hitch……]

[Right. It would be best if Shallow Vernal-sama enjoys herself but…… Oya? God of Fate, that’s a complicated expression you’re having there. Is something the matter? Is something bothering you?]

[……Unnn. As expected, saying it now…… would be rough huh……]

The plan is already set, and currently, both Shallow Vernal and Kaito have yet to arrive, so there should be no issues…… but Fate seemed to be lost in thought, displaying seriousness that was unimaginable from her usual demeanor.

Such an expression held this certain sense of dignity to it, making Chronois and Life feel that “Fate really was the one who had grown the most among the Supreme Gods”. Perhaps, she could see things that were not visible to them……

[God of Fate, if you find something essential, just say it. We may be inexperienced compared to you, but we are still Supreme Gods, and there are lots of things we can help out with.]

[Yes, you can leave the support to us. But first, we would still need you to share some information. Tell us, God of Fate…… What is this worrying matter you have that makes you have such a stiff expression on your face?]

[…………Eh?]

[ [ Eh? ] ]

Seeing Fate being lost in serious contemplation, Chronois and Life earnestly conveyed their strong determination through their eyes, but Fate, looking puzzled, tilted her head in response.

[Worrying matter? Eh? What are you talking about?]

[U- Unnn? Just now, you had something on your mind regarding Shallow Vernal-sama’s date, which is why you had a troubled expression on your face, right?]

[……Not really though?]

[……T- Then, why in the world did you have that expression on your face?]

Fate clearly looked confused at their words, but even more confused than her were Chronois and Life. By observing Fate’s reaction, they could understand that they had disparities in their perceptions. Even if that were the case though, they just couldn’t understand why Fate, who can be described as a laid-back person except when something concerns Shallow Vernal, had such a serious expression on her face.

Hearing Life’s questioning words, Fate looked away somewhat awkwardly.

[Ahh~~ Well, you see…… This is another dimension, right? It’s another dimension that branched off on the premise that Kai-chan invited Shallow Vernal-sama to the Founding Festival…… making a promise to Shallow Vernal-sama to attend the festival with her, right?]

[That’s right. Except for changing the part about who Miyama’s companion is, there’s nothing else changed from the original dimension. As for things related to Miyama’s companion, some memories have been altered to avoid certain contradictions, but overall, such understanding is correct. What of it?]

[……Well…… If that’s the case, I also want to have a festival date with Kai-chan…… but I thought, saying that now would be too late huh……]

[ [ ………………….. ] ]

Upon hearing the words Fate apologetically said, veins involuntarily popped out of Chronois and Life’s foreheads. However, they understood that this was just them simply making misunderstandings and that Fate had no intention to mislead them or cause confusion, so they could only suppress their surging emotions.

[……Ahh~~ You know…… Let’s just concentrate on what’s going on here, okay?]

[Yeah, let’s do that……]

After an indescribable and complicated atmosphere passed among the three, they immediately sensed the arrival of Shallow Vernal and Kaito. In that instant, the expression of the three changed and all their attention focused on the couple on their date.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Ahh, I see, if she had realized this earlier and asked Shiro, she might have been able to benefit from the SUPER WIN SYSTEM as well…… Stop thinking up scary ideas, seriously……]
