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

While smiling fondly at Olivia, who was blushing and showing her joy so clearly that even from a distance it was easy to tell, Kaori was enjoying her own meal.

(Olivia-sama only gets flustered like that when she's with Kaito-kun. He really is amazing. But, well, Olivia-sama did manage to accomplish one of her goals, so that's good…… Ah, this canapé is delicious.)

Kaori had been a significant help in creating Olivia's date plans, so she was celebrating Olivia's success in reaching one of her goals. She also knew that there were still several goals Olivia had set beforehand.

For Olivia, who was experiencing her first date, Kaori was worried and cheering her on, knowing it would be difficult…… but at this point, Kaori thinks of this as someone else's issue. While she was participating in the date, her intention was to observe as a bystander.

However, that assumption was shattered by Olivia's words, which she spoke after recovering from her initial fluster.

[……Well then, next it's Mizuhara Kaori's turn.]

[Haeh!?]

Those words, which seemed completely natural to Olivia, were a complete surprise to Kaori.

[……Eh? Uh, Olivia-sama? Me…… too?]

[Yes, Mizuhara Kaori is also on a date with Miyama Kaito-sama after all.]

The important thing here is that Kaito plans to clear up the misunderstanding later, but at this moment, Olivia still hasn't realized the truth. She believes that feeding the other person during a date meal is a must.

Naturally, Olivia thinks that Kaori, who is also on a date, must do the same.

(W- What should I do? Me too? T- This would be that, isn't it? We'd be doing that "ahhn" thing, right? No, no, that's way too embarrassing…… B- But, well…… it's not like I don't have some desire to try something like that at least once, so maybe this situation is a chance?)

Kaori, who had been transported to another world during her prime years, had no experience in romance, having prioritized traveling and exploring the world over romantic matters.

But she does have a yearning for romance. She often reads romance magazines and watches plays…… And now, Olivia had already done it, so it was an easier situation for Kaori to follow.

And the person involved was Kaito, who, despite everything, was the one she was most interested in at the moment…… She didn’t feel any aversion to the idea of feeding each other during the date.

[W- Well then, since we're at it, if Kaito-kun is okay with it, may I…… do it too?]

[Yes, it's fine. Actually, I'm really happy about it.]

[Fghh, y- you really are……]

Although Kaori was internally feeling nervous and excited, she was desperately trying to maintain her composure as an older person, speaking calmly. Kaito, however, responded with a gentle smile, agreeing.

(Kuh, he’s so relaxed. This guy is really used to situations like this. Also, his face is closer than I thought…… U- Uuuu…… D*mn it, he's so cool.)

Kaori, who thought she was hiding her embarrassment, was the only one who believed she was managing it well. Her cheeks were red, and her gaze darted restlessly, but she still picked up a canapé and fed it to Kaito.

Though she didn’t lose herself like Olivia did, the close proximity of feeding him made her feel awkward and self-conscious.

[Thank you. Now, Kaori-san too, here you go.]

[Uuu, ah…… D- Don't mind if I do.]

Following the same pattern as with Olivia, Kaito offered her food, and Kaori, blushing even more, ate it.

(……I can’t taste it at all! Also, the way he's gently holding my chin so I don’t spill it is making me so nervous…… I mean, isn't this embarrassing!? But, well, it's also kind of making my heart skip a beat…… I want to act like the older one, but being led like this is kind of nice in its own way……)

She was surprised by the sudden development, and although it was embarrassing to do something she wasn’t used to, she was so nervous that she couldn’t even really taste the food.

Still, despite that, she didn’t mind the act itself. It was surprisingly pleasant…… almost making her feel a giddy sense of happiness.

(Hahh, seriously…… If he keeps doing things like this…… I’m gonna fall for him. No, maybe it's actually a bit too late for that already……)

With a mix of embarrassment and happiness, Kaori couldn’t help but smile wryly.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [She had no romantic experience, and she feels more like a virgin with lots of knowledge about those kinds of stuff, but she's not as twisted as Alice. So this is an older girl who's a bit weak when it comes to romance huh…… Fuuu…… This is too much…… They're more affectionate than I expected……]
