I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

After returning home and guiding Jutia-san to my room, I checked with Canalis-san about the new product. According to her, if I call her name anywhere within Trinia, she can hear me as long as it's not in the Divine Realm.

The way she excluded Shiro-san's domain makes it seem like she's serious rather than joking. Incidentally, she also clarified that she can only hear me if I call her name, saying "Please rest assured, I don’t eavesdrop on regular conversations."

……Thinking about it again, respecting privacy is just natural, but with people like Shiro-san, Makina-san, Alice, and Kuro listening in on my conversations fairly often, Canalis-san’s straightforwardness actually surprised me.

[Canalis-san, may I have a moment?]

[Yes, yes, what do you need?]

I called out to the void as I left the room, and in the next moment, Canalis-san appeared in front of me.

[Jutia-san is here right now, and I was thinking that if possible, we could bring out the new product you mentioned that was set to release later, so I wanted to confirm it with you……]

[Ah, I see, that’s fine. Well then, should I bring it to Kaito-sama's room?]

[Yes, please. Thank you.]

[And how many minutes would you like it in? I pride myself on being a punctual woman, so I can deliver it at the exact time you specify.]

[Errr, then, how about in about three minutes……?]

[Understood.]

After that exchange, I returned to my room and sat across from Jutia-san in her seat. Now that I think about it, my room is pretty spacious, so whenever I have visitors, I usually just bring them here…… I don’t really use the reception room much.

Then again, if it’s a friend rather than a business visitor, it’s probably fine to have them in my room, right?

[Jutia-san, there's actually a new tea product from Nifty that’s set to release a little later. Would it be all right if we served that to you?]

[Eh? A- A new product!? Of course, of course, I’d be thrilled…… but are you sure it’s okay?]

[Yes. I got permission from the person in charge at Nifty, so it’s fine.]

[In that case, in that case, I’d gratefully accept it. I’m a huge fan of Nifty…… so I’m really, really looking forward to it!]

Jutia-san’s eyes sparkled with joy, her reaction matching her small frame perfectly———- she looked absolutely adorable.

As we continued with some lighthearted chat, right on the dot after three minutes, there was a knock on the door, and Canalis-san entered, pushing a cart.

[Thank you, Canalis-san…… Arehh? That outfit?]

[Since I'm acting as the server, I decided to dress like a butler. I tried on a maid uniform at first, but, tahaa~~ maybe because I’m more of the cool type? It didn’t quite suit me, so I quickly changed to a butler uniform.]

[I see…… With Canalis-san's slender build, this style definitely suits you better. You look great in it.]

[Thank you very much. Such a nice compliment makes my heart skip a beat! Oops, I must introduce myself to our guest as well. I'm the one Kaito-sama has entrusted Nifty with, Canalis.]

After speaking in her usual expressionless yet lively tone, Canalis-san turned to Jutia-san and introduced herself.

Thereupon, Jutia-san straightened up and gave a polite bow in response.

[Nice to meet you, I am Jutia, one of the retainers of the World King, Lillywood-sama. Although it’s mostly through rumors, I’ve heard about Canalis-sama. I think I’ll have many opportunities to use Nifty in the future, so please take care of me.]

[Ah, I kinda understand what you're thinking, but it’s perfectly fine to speak casually. I’m just like a Stray God you could find wandering around, so there’s no need to treat me with respect or anything. Especially now, I’m in a subordinate position to Kaito-sama, so I’m someone even "below" him…… Tahaa~~ a Stray God turned Subordinate God!]

[……W-Well, I’m pretty sure you’re not just wandering around…… B- But well, if you say so, I’ll take you at your word and speak as usual.]

Jutia-san seemed a bit formal, likely due to hearing that Canalis-san is an omnipotent god, but as usual, Canalis-san assured her there was no need to be so respectful.

Actually, Canalis-san sounded delighted when she referred to herself as my subordinate. How should I say this…… Her expression stayed as unreadable as ever, yet her emotions were incredibly easy to pick up on.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [A Stray God you could find wandering around…… like that ever exists!]
