Chapter 1997: Canalis 14

A few days after Canalis-san had us inspect the shops she was planning to build, they received messages from the rulers of various countries asking them to open stores on their desired lands.Th.ê most uptod/ate novels a/re published on n(0)velbj)n(.)c/o/m

As expected, each country wanted a shop in their Capital City, and the locations seemed pretty good. Well, Canalis-san had already looked at the future and had considered the locations, so there shouldn't be any problems.

[Incidentally, Canalis-san, when can we open the shop?]

[We can open it tomorrow if you want. We've already set up mass production, received permission from Shallow Vernal, created the staff, and finished training them, including basic knowledge of this world. So, we're ready to go at any time.]

[As expected of Canalis-san, you work fast. But opening tomorrow might cause some trouble, right?]

[Yes, considering the needs of each country and the fact that Anima-san and others mentioned wanting to run an opening campaign, including promotions...... I think opening next month would be more reasonable.]

[Then, if everything checks out with Anima and the others, let's have the opening in a month.]

[Ahhh, by the way, Kaito-sama. Since it's snack time, would you like to try some of the sweets we'll be serving at the shops? I'll invite you to my room. Tahaa~~ Well, it was originally Kaito-sama's room!]

[Yes. Well, you see, I'm omnipotent, so creating multiple spaces in the same location via phase shifting is no problem for me. Tahaa~~ This could solve all housing problems! That said, to leave the hidden spaces, you'd need Time-Space Teleportation...... Oh, Kaito-sama, please have a seat here...... Ah, may I sit with you?]

[Thank you. Yes, of course...... Or rather, I'd just feel uncomfortable if you remained standing.]

When I agreed, Canalis-san sat across from me and lightly snapped her fingers. Thereupon, on the table which had been empty until that moment, colorful cakes and freshly brewed tea suddenly appeared.

[Now, now, please help yourself without hesitation. There's plenty, so eat as much as you like, and if you can't finish it, feel free to leave the rest. I'll just appropriately convert the leftovers into magic power or another form of energy for reuse...... Tahaa~~ Sorry for being so eco-friendly!]

As always, Canalis-san maintained her usual expressionless face, but her voice seemed to carry a hint of excitement...... This is just my hunch, but it felt like she was genuinely enjoying herself.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [I mean, her light tone and easygoing vibe might make it seem like she's just being casual, but Canalis's feelings for Kaito are probably super intense......]
