Chapter 2457: Requested Item

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

For the moment, it felt safe to say that the discussion had wrapped up, and there was no doubt that Kaori-san had learned what she wanted to know.

She certainly hadnt expected the True Blessing to be bestowed right here on the spot, but at least Kaori-san had been able to receive it or rather, shed muttered under her breath But still, eternal youth really is nice, so all things considered, it didnt seem like a bad thing for her.

[Ah, that reminds me, Olivia-sama. This whole thing got me thinking, if I wanted to contact you myself, what should I do? I mean, not cases where its fine to send a hummingbird and wait for a reply, but times when Id like to get in touch as quickly as possible. Is it possible for me to use the Blessing to do something like telepathy from my side too?]

[It is possible, yes, but unlike hummingbirds, telepathy via mana wavelength requires the skill to project ones mana wavelength over long distances. At close range, it can be done naturally, but if there is significant distance between us with Mizuhara Kaoris current abilities, it may be somewhat difficult.]

[Ahh, I see. So for me, telepathy is more of a short range problem then.]

[That would be correct. Or rather, if you have business with me, there is no problem if you simply come to the Central Cathedral as you did this time. I have already issued notice to all priests about you, so if you give your name, they will relay you to me.]

[Oof.]

Kaori-san had merely been trying to confirm a method of contact in case something similar happened again, but Olivia-sans unexpected remark left her wearing an indescribable expression on her face.

What mattered here was how Olivia-san had informed the others about Kaori-san. There was no doubt that Olivia-sans evaluation of Kaori-san was high, but when notifying other priests, had she really said something like Shes a friend of mine?

[O- Olivia-sama? When you say issued notice h- how exactly did you put it? I- I mean, Im not affiliated with the Godism Church or anything, so I was wondering how you explained me to the other priests]

[Ahhh I told them She is a woman who shares a close relationship with Miyama Kaito-sama, and who also has frequent personal exchanges with me, often offering advice. Therefore, should she visit, she is to be directed to me directly.]

[S- Somethings not right, my stomach hurts Didnt my stomach toughness get multiplied by fifty too?]

Not a single lie had been told. It was true that Kaori-san and I came from the same place, and it wasnt wrong to say we shared a close relationship. It was also true that she had frequent exchanges with Olivia-san and had offered advice to her many times.

That advice, however, was mainly about date plans and things along those lines but judging from how Olivia-san had informed the priests, it sounded as though Kaori-san was some remarkable figure who had deep ties with me and was capable of offering counsel even to the Founder, Olivia-san.

Even if Olivia-san hadnt intended it, it felt like the other priests were probably recognizing Kaori-san as an important person within the Godism Church.

Kaori-san had her head in her hands, but since there was technically no falsehood involved, it would be difficult to ask Olivia-san to correct anything.

Or rather, if she did try to correct it there was also the very real possibility that the ultra-serious Olivia-san would explain things in meticulous detail and end up turning Kaori-san into an even stranger kind of important figure.

Kaori-san probably understood that too. She looked like she couldnt say anything more, so I decided to step in and wrap things up.

[Ah, errr, Olivia-san. Thank you very much for answering all our questions. I think Kaori-san got everything she wanted to know. You must have been busy with work as well, sorry for dropping by so suddenly.]

[Not at all, please dont mind it. For me, there is nothing that takes precedence over matters concerning Miyama Kaito-sama and Shallow Vernal-sama. Attending to this as my highest priority is only natural.]

[The tea and the Baumkuchen were delicious too. Thank you very much.]

[N- No, if Miyama Kaito-sama was pleased, there could be no greater happiness for me. Though I am still quite inexperienced, if I am granted another opportunity like this, I will further hone my skills and offer you even better hospitality next time.]

Olivia-san, speaking with genuine delight in response to my words, was incredibly endearing, she even had an almost puppy-like air about her.

And at that moment, something suddenly occurred to me.

[Ah, right. The exact date isnt decided yet, but Im thinking of holding a tea party at my place. Shiro-san is planning to attend as well, would you like to join us too, Olivia-san?]

[Me, at a gathering where Miyama Kaito-sama and Shallow Vernal-sama are both present!? O- Of course, it would be an honor far beyond my station, but w- would that be alright?]

[Yes. Were still in the process of inviting people, so if youre willing, Id love for you to come.]

[To bestow such an honor upon me, my heartfelt gratitude for Miyama Kaito-samas vast and profound benevolence Though I am a person of many shortcomings, I will gratefully accept your invitation.]

[Alright then. Ill let you know once the details and schedule are finalized.]

Id invited her thinking that if Shiro-san was attending the tea party, Olivia-san would surely be pleased, but her reaction surpassed my expectations. She looked as though she were about to attend a truly sacred rite.

As a side note, when I briefly glanced over at Kaori-san, she was shaking her head vigorously from side to side, her face deathly pale, so it seemed best not to invite her.

Serious-senpai : [Kaori got away but Eriss stomach is about to give out]

? ? ? : [Errr, as of now, the confirmed participants are Shallow Vernal-sama, Eris-san, Olivia-san and, well, Lilia-san will probably get dragged in too.]

Serious-senpai : [Lilias naturally getting a spot on the participant list huh no, well, I guess she probably would]
