Lilia, brought by Alice to the special space, nearly fainted on the spot. Shallow Vernal, Makina, and Canalis, World Creators, along with Kuromueina, Alice, and Fate, some of the most prominent figures in Trinia...... Just imagining herself among them caused an intense wave of nausea that manifested as a sharp pain in her stomach.
Of course, Lilia wasn’t the only one feeling this way. The same applied to the other three who had been brought along: Ryze, Chris, and Laguna, whose expressions clearly conveyed their thoughts of "How did this happen?"
[Everyone’s here. Let’s resume our meeting.]
[Wait, Shiro. We can’t just restart the meeting where we stopped it, Lilia and the others won’t be able to keep up. Well, I think they’ve been told this is about discussing Kaito-kun’s birthday, but the reason they were called isn’t just for us to relay information to the Human Realm's representatives. Since this party is very much rooted in Human culture, we’re counting on their knowledge about that too.]
[......Now that you mention it, Demons don’t really do those kinds of things, do they?]
As Shallow Vernal moved to restart the discussion, Kuromueina interjected and briefly explained why the four had been summoned.
[Unn. A lot of Demons are long-lived, so we don’t really celebrate yearly events or anything like that. Many of us don’t even remember our own birthdays or ages. But Humans throw parties for royal birthdays and other similar occasions quite often.]
[I- I see. I don’t know how much we can contribute, but we’ll do our utmost.]
[ [ [ [ .......................... ] ] ] ]
[Ahh~~ I see! A discussion-style approach. Since I would be representing this team and voicing our ideas, it means I’d be the one presenting directly to Shallow Vernal-sama, making it easier for Lilia-san and the others to share their thoughts freely.]
[Exactly. Tahaa~~ sorry for a newcomer suddenly taking charge like this!"]
Canalis's proposal was truly a lifeline for Lilia and the others. With Alice taking charge of summarizing and presenting the final opinions, it made things significantly easier for Lilia and the others.
The idea of consulting while comparing the two plans was also a format conducive to discussion, and it seemed that none of the members not part of the Human Realm had any objections either.
[Alright, since there don’t seem to be any disagreements, let’s go with Canalis-san’s suggestion. Well then, Lilia-san and the others, please gather over here, while the rest of you join Shallow Vernal-sama...... Let’s allocate about 30 minutes since we’re only drafting a rough outline. Even if it’s incomplete, we’ll share what we have at that point and discuss further......]
With the approach decided, the teams split as Canalis suggested, and the discussions for Kaito’s birthday plans began.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [As expected a proper God under the guidance of the Absolute......]
? ? ? : [Well, that should be it for this round of discussions. The details of the plan will be something to look forward to on the actual day of Kaito-san's birthday. For now, the story would switch over to Olivia-san and Kaori-san's date.] Ŗ
