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

For now, it doesn’t look like I need to worry about running out of time to receive presents, so I spin the garapon again during a break between concerts.

<ISIS REMNANT>

Oh, it’s Isis-san. It hasn’t been that long since we talked during the exhibition match at the second game tournament, so it’s not like this draw is early or anything, but for some reason, it feels like I got her pretty early.

Well, the order doesn’t really matter…… Though Shiro-san probably cared about that, I doubt it made much difference for the others. Since the system lets us receive and integrate presents from parallel worlds, there’s no pressure about making the last present some kind of grand finale.

[……Kaito…… happy…… birthday.]

[Thank you very much. I’m happy to be celebrated.]

[……If Kaito’s happy…… then I’m happy too…… but…… it kinda feels like I got a present…… before I even gave mine.]

She said that with a faint smile and showed me the bracelet that Canalis-san had made earlier.

[Ahh, that bracelet…… is it working out well?]

[……Unn…… it’s amazing…… As long as no one gets within 50 cm, it’s fine…… So I can put up a small barrier at about 50 cm…… and if it keeps people with weak powers from getting too close, I can be relieved…… Before, I needed at least 5 m, which made it difficult…… but 50 cm is easy to maintain all the time…… and it doesn’t bother people around me…… so it’s a relief.]

[Yeah, I get that. If you have to block out a 5-meter radius, that’s a pretty big area. I’m glad to hear it’s easier now. I know I’m copying what you just said, but…… seeing you happy makes me happy too, Isis-san.]

[……Kaito…… unn.]

Isis-san gave me a deeply heartfelt smile at my words, and just seeing that expression filled me with happiness.

Thereupon, as if she just remembered, she pulled out a wrapped package.

[……Ah…… I need to give you your present…… Here…… I hope you like it.]

[Thank you. Is it okay if I open it now?]

[……Unn.]

Judging from the feel, the size, and the shape of the wrapping, it seemed like it might be a book. Isis-san loves books, so that would make sense. Maybe it’s a recommendation she hasn’t told me about yet?

Thinking that, I opened the bag, and inside was a book with a large Blue Crystal Flower illustrated on the cover…… but it didn’t have a title. I flipped through the pages and found they were all blank.

[……Ah, is this maybe…… a diary book?]

[……Unn…… you told me you still write in your diary sometimes…… though not as often as before…… so I thought you might use it for that…… and I made it.]

[Eh? You made this yourself, Isis-san?]

[……Unn…… making a book isn’t that hard…… I practiced drawing the cover.]

Oh my, the present was a handmade diary book from Isis-san. The book itself was sturdy, and the cover was so beautiful that I had assumed it was a commercially sold product, so I was genuinely surprised.

Wait…… Isis-san can draw too? Now that I think about it, she does have a refined and artistic vibe about her, so that kind of talent fits.

[That’s amazing! Thank you very much…… Ah, I just thought of something. Since I received it from you, maybe I could use this diary book exclusively for memories with you. That way, when I look back on it later, I can recall and relive all the fun times we shared.]

[……That’s…… really lovely…… If you use it that way…… I’ll be very happy too.]

It was a spur-of-the-moment idea, but having different diaries for different people might not be a bad concept. Having too many would be a hassle, of course, but for my lovers, it could be nice to have a separate one, write in it after our date, for instance. It would probably feel wonderful to look back on later.

[Anyway, thank you again for the wonderful gift. Let’s hang out again soon! With that bracelet, I think going on a date in the city could be really nice too.]

[……Unn…… I’m really looking forward to it…… Fufu…… Being able to look forward to the future like this…… makes me really happy…… It’s all thanks to you, Kaito…… I’d love to talk more but…… the next live show’s about to start, so…… I’ll head back.]

[Okay.]

After smiling happily, Isis-san suddenly seemed to have thought of something, then quietly hugged me and whispered into my ear.

[……Kaito…… I love you.]

And as she let go of me, she gently brushed her lips against mine in a swift, feather-light kiss, then with a bashful smile, she waved adorably before returning to the party.
