I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace - Chapter 72

Chapter 72: 72
Arriving at Sieg-san’s home, we were currently having a cup of tea while we waited for Lunamaria-san .
Sieg-san’s home is made of calming wood, and the interior is quite spacious and soothing .
[By the way, Rei-san . Are you alright?]
[……Good gracious, my daughter’s love really is quite heavy . I think I would need to use Recovery Magic on it . ]
As we drank our tea, I called out to Rei-san, who looks like a firework just exploded right on his face .
In response, he smiled and held up his hand to his face, and as his hand emitted a faint light, the wounds on his face quickly healed .
[As expected of the “Former Court Mage”, what splendid skills you have . ]
[Hahaha, well, as expected, I’ve been feeling that my skills have been on the decline lately . Especially if Lilia-chan and Luna-chan are going to participate this time, it’s going to be hard for me to win the hunting tournament . ]
[Is Lilia-san really that strong?]
Apparently, Rei-san used to work as a court mage in the royal palace, and he is a very skilled mage .

And that Rei-san highly evaluates Lilia-san’s ability, so Kusunoki-san, who was wondering about it, asked so .
[Oya, you don’t know? Within the Symphonia Kingdom, Lilia-chan is said to be the one who holds “ability closest to the strongest” . Just her battle capabilities make her worthy of being the Knight Order’s leader . ]
[U- Ummm, Rei-san . Please stop……]
[I’ve also heard others say Lilia-san is strong before, but was Lunamaria-san also that amazing?]

Regarding Lilia-san’s ability, I could definitely see it from the fact that she was already the runner-up in a martial arts tournament even just when she was a teenager, but I’ve never heard of Lunamaria-san being strong before .
Ah, but come to think of it… . . I can’t really imagine it because of how she usually acts, but didn’t Lunamaria-san mention that she was a former adventurer?
[I think it’s safe to say that Luna is one of the favorites in winning the tournament . Her hunting skills, especially in the forests, are far better than mine because of her experience as an adventurer . Of course, Sieg is also one of the candidates to win, too . Although us elves are inferior to humans in terms of muscle strength, we have superior vision and hearing, and we’re also unrivaled in hunting in the forests . Especially since Sieg’s sword skills are even better than mine . ]
[…………… . ]
[I see . ]
I guess that it’s already something I expected, Sieg-san is also quite strong as well .

She’s one of the elven race with excellent senses, and her sword skills are even better than Lilia-san’s…… To be honest, I wonder why do I get the impression that Lilia-san is more of a power type rather than a technique-type? Is it because she knocked me out cold many times?
[……Kaito-san . Do you have something you want to say?]
[I- I’m not saying anything though!?]
[Hahaha, well, generally speaking, they’re the best within the Symphonia Kingdom . ]


Anyway, it seems that Lilia-san and the others are worthy candidates for overall victory . But as expected, the warriors of Rigforeshia, who usually hunt in the forest, are also excellent, so it doesn’t seem to be so easy to win……
[Hmmm . The only one I’ve seen battling in this world is Kuro so…… but I don’t think the fight would be that exciting if someone uses magic . ]
[Ummm, Kaito-san…… Comparing us with someone like her is strange . You’re comparing us to one of the strongest beings in the world, you know?]
And well, that’s how our enjoyable conversation went but…… A few moments later, the door flew open and Lunamaria-san rushed into the building .

[……Haaahh…… Haaahhh……]
[Luna?]

[M- My Lady!? There’s an emergency!!!]
[What’s the matter?]
Lunamaria-san, who came rushing in, must have come in too much of a hurry . Heavily breathing, she spoke to Lilia-san with an impatient look on her face .
Lilia-san must have sensed the unusual atmosphere she had, and thus, she also turned serious as she began urging her to continue .
[J- Just a moment ago, the “prize” for this year’s hunting tournament was announced, and that is……]


[The prize? Ah, come to think of it, they still haven’t announced it huh . ]
[That’s right~~ The prize last year was a magic tool, so I was also wondering what the prize was this year~~ . ]
In the hunting tournament, a prize will be presented to the winner every year, and I’ve heard that it changes every year .
There are a variety of prizes, from money to items like magic tools, but it seems that this is what Lunamaria-san wanted to talk about .
[But this time, as it’s the 1000th anniversary of the creation of the Elven Forest…… Instead of the Elven Chief, World King-sama herself would be the one bestowing the prize!!!]

[What!? W- World King-sama would……]
[Luna…… That is…… Don’t tell me……]

Hearing the words that Lunamaria said, Rei-san and Fia-san also looked at her like they couldn’t believe it .
However, Lilia-san’s expression looked even more impressive…… Rather than shock, what’s that called again…… It’s somehow close to looking aghast, but anyway, Lilia-san looks different from how she usually acts .
[It’s as you’re thinking…… The prize would be the “Fruit of the World Tree” . ]
[ ! ? ! ? ]


At that moment, my Sympathy Magic sensed strong emotions .
Deep regret and…… rage directed to me?
And the person emitting those strong emotions was…… Lilia-san .
[What is this fruit of the World Tree?]

[Legend has it that this fruit can heal sickness, wounds, and even restore missing limbs . I’ve never seen one of it myself, but I’ve heard that on rare occasions, World King-sama would give to her followers as a gift . ]
[It’s doesn’t just worth a lot of money, it’s already priceless~~ Even some of World King-sama’s followers may have never seen the real thing . ]
Rei-san and Fia-san responded to the question Yuzuki-san had asked, but they also looked like there are some complicated circumstances .
I wonder what that is? This is…… The one who I can feel the strongest emotions is Lilia-san, but both Lunamaria-san and Sieg-san somehow have a pained look on their faces .
Thereupon, after saying “I have a few things to do”, Lilia-san left with Lunamaria-san, while Sieg-san had a pained expression on her face, looking at their departing figures .
Dear Mom, Dad—– I heard that the prizes for this hunting tournament were very awesome, but Lilia-san and the others somehow looked strange when they heard what this year’s prize is . It’s something I don’t know, but for Lilia-san and the others—– something complicated may have happened .
