Chapter 2070: Date Plan Execution 12

During the Founding Festival of the Hydra Kingdom in another dimension, Olivia was instructed by Shallow Vernal to go on a date with Kaito. With Kaori’s cooperation, she successfully completed her date plan and managed to invite Kaito...... Now, Olivia was offering a deep prayer in the inner sanctum of the Founder's chamber, located in Friendship City's Cathedral.

There were still 15 days left until the promised date. The prayer she was currently engaged in had nothing to do with the ritual prayers she had announced she would perform starting 10 days before the date. This was simply her usual routine of praying during her free time. One could say that for Olivia, this was just an ordinary day.

However, perhaps because the date was drawing near, that date lingered in her mind.

(......It is difficult for someone as unrefined as me to fully grasp the profound intentions of Shallow Vernal-sama. However, since Shallow Vernal-sama deemed this date necessary, it must hold significant importance for me. I must also extend my heartfelt gratitude to Miyama Kaito-sama for graciously agreeing......)

Up to this point, Olivia's thoughts were calm and composed, much like the still surface of a tranquil sea. She prayed in a serene state of mind.

But gaining knowledge can sometimes cloud one’s thoughts. Olivia, being extremely diligent, had put her full effort into planning the date and reviewed numerous reference materials. As a result, her knowledge of romantic matters had significantly improved.

In truth, Olivia’s assumption was not incorrect. If, on the day of the date, Olivia suggested holding hands, Kaito would most likely agree without hesitation.

Blushing deeply———— this time unrelated to the heat of the room————- Olivia, flustered by her own restless thoughts, resolved to subject herself to even harsher ascetic practices to regain her composure.

As Olivia tightened her grip, a Spatial Isolation Barrier appeared in the Founder's chamber, and within the created space, gigantic meteors and lightning bolts rained down on her.

(T- These worldly thoughts...... my mind is in turmoil...... This is the first time my thoughts of prayers have been so disrupted!? Kuh, I must clear my mind and pray with pure, transparent thoughts...... M- Miyama Kaito-sama’s figure won't leave my mind!? W- Why? What will I do in this state!? If I’m like this now, what will happen on the day of the date......? Kuh, a- as expected, Shallow Vernal-sama's trial is not going to be easy. I must properly prepare myself mentally before then......)

Because of her overly serious nature, once Olivia got caught in a whirlpool of thoughts, it was difficult for her to break free, and it took a considerable amount of time for the redness in her face to subside.

As a side note...... after this incident, the priests who observed Olivia———– clearly exhausted———– began to whisper "There are such rigorous and grueling prayer practices in the Godism Faith that even the Founder can be worn out by them." among themselves.



<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [She’s so overly earnest that she poured her entire focus into planning the date up until now. But once that settled and she got Kaito’s agreement, she suddenly had a bit of breathing room, and now her mind’s running wild with all sorts of thoughts...... She's completely become a heroine, isn't she......]
