Chereads / I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning But The World At Peace / Chapter 420 - Apparently, There was a Battle That Happened Behind the Scenes

Chapter 420 - Apparently, There was a Battle That Happened Behind the Scenes

It was a scene that could have been straight out of an apocalypse.

With a roar, the earth cracked, the air swirled, and people ran for

cover… With those descriptions, did you think that I was talking about a

war? No, I'm talking about a "rock-paper-scissors tournament".

Right in front of me was an arena filled with craters, littered with places

that were on the verge of collapsing, but the place was somehow able to

maintain its original shape.

Can you believe this? Everyone was just playing rock-paper-scissors,

you know? Moreover, it all started just because of a badly-made clay

sculpture that I made…

There was no way that an ordinary person like me could intervene in

the battle called rock-paper-scissors, which had completely become

some kind of ultra-dimensional sport… I just prayed to God that my

black history would not fall into the hands of someone troublesome.

However, my wish was scoffed at by the God I prayed to.

< Now then, the one who had won the fierce battle of rock-paperscissors is…"God of Creation Shallow Vernal-sama"!!! God of Creationsama really is strong!!! >

The most troublesome person in the world got her hands on it! For the

airhead Shiro-san to acquire it, that was almost the worst outcome of

all. The worst thing that could have happened was for it to fall into

Eden-san's hands, but this was still the second worst situation of all.

who got her hands on it, I won't complain. >

< Hmmm. It was also close for Kuro-san, who she fought against in the

finals. >

< The Underworld King just didn't have the best luck. She had to fight

Shallow Vernal-sama right after her fierce battle against that

"Mysterious Angel", so she was exhausted. >

< Well~~ I wonder who that angel is? As soon as she lost, she

disappeared as if she had no interest in any other thing anymore… >

Alice and Fate-san were still doing their shameless live commentary

and analysis, even though the audience had already fled. The only ones

left here were the ones I knew.

But then again, I'm feeling complicated only because of what they're

fighting about… but it was a really fierce battle.

Well, I couldn't see anyone doing attacks or defends at all, but I could

hear the explosions and the ground being gouged out.

Kuro beat Eden-san in the semifinals, but she seemed to have worn

herself out and lost to Shiro-san in the finals.

Shiro-san's opponent in the semifinals was Fate-san, but Fate-san

forfeited, and Shiro-san managed to win without tiring herself during

that match. Well, it was really as Fate-san said. Kuro was just not

blessed with luck.

[…Errr, thank you. Lillywood-san.]

"No, I'm just glad that Kaito-san is uninjured."

Incidentally, Lillywood-san protected me, Lilia-san and the others, so

we didn't get injured.

By the way, Shiro-san? I know you can hear me, right? I'd really like it if

you could promptly hand over my black history back to me, you know?

(On one condition.)

…I knew that this would be the case. I had a feeling that this would

happen. I have a bad feeling about what you're going to say, but please

say what you want.

(I'm feeling troubled about how to spend my time on the seventh day of

the Six Kings Festival.)

…Errr, that means…

(I'm feeling troubled about how to spend my time on the seventh day of

the Six Kings Festival.)

This is that, all over again, isn't it? This means I'm supposed to say that,

right?

(I'm feeling troubled about how to spend my time on the seventh day of

the Six Kings Festival.)

S- Shiro-san… Well, if it's okay with you, Shiro-san…

On the seventh day of the Six Kings Festival, could we hang out

together…

(Date.)

…Could I ask you to go on a date with me?

(If Kaito-san so insists, I guess I will reluctantly consider it.)

I- I really want to go on a date with Shiro-san. I'm begging you.

(It can't be helped. If you're going to go that far, I guess we could go on a

date.)

…I feel like I've lost extremely. It seems that Shiro-san is fixated with a

situation where I ask her out, so much so that she would even

shamelessly lead the conversation to that… What a frightening person

she is.

(If the date turns out to be a fun one, I might even give this clay

sculpture to Kaito-san.)

…But, I'll do my best.

I mean, I just want to ask you one thing. Why are you going that far…

(That's because Kaito-san is neglecting me.)

U- Unnn? W- What are you talking about?

(Kaito-san "invited Earth God", but you didn't invite me even when you

were heading towards this place.)

No, no!? You know that's impossible! I mean, there's also Lilia-san and

the others with us, you know? If Shiro-san appears, Lilia-san would

totally faint!

(Even when "I'm just staying one floor below yours", Kaito-san didn't

come to see me.)

That's totally the first time I've heard it, you know!? Eh? I mean, Shirosan is staying in the Central Tower!? You don't stay the night back in the

Sanctuary!?

(I stayed there so that I could "sleep with Kaito-san". But last night, I

didn't have a chance to do that because of Kuro. She was also

"obstructing" me when I tried teleporting while you were in the onsen.)

A surprising new fact just came out! What the heck are you trying to

do!? I mean, such a battle happened without my knowledge!?

(Incidentally, "Earth God also tried doing that". She was also stopped by

Kuro though…)

Thank you so much, Kuro!!! I'll definitely do something to express my

thanks to her next time! Please keep that up and hold them off for the

remaining six days!!!

(Just Kuro is unfair.)

No, even if you say it's unfair… I'll do my best to make sure that we have

a fun date, so please excuse me from that. You'll kill off my reasoning if

you join in.

(Mnhh.)

Even though she was cutely sulking, that's something I couldn't let pass,

so I had to devote my efforts to persuading Shiro-san for a while after

that.

Dear Mom, Dad———– After the fierce battle, I thought the first day

would be over with that, but then, I was told a shocking new fact. It

seems that last night——- Apparently, there was a battle that happened

behind the scenes.
