Chapter 1707: Afternoon Founding Festival with Shallow Vernal ②

Well, the number of pages was quite small, and some parts of the magazine conveyed that photography is still expensive……

[We can’t really leisurely look at it like this. Is there anywhere nice we can sit on?]

[Indeed…… Hmmm, Kaito-san, check out this page.]

[Eh? This one? Errr, let’s see…… “Special Time at the Clock Tower’s Special Sky View Seats”…… The clock tower would be that, right?]

On the page that caught Shiro-san’s attention was a considerably tall clock tower. The clock tower is familiar to me. The first time I visited Hydra Kingdom, that was the area where the terrorist attack aimed at Mitsunaga-kun was carried out. Well, Alice prevented it and dealt with it, so it didn’t become a big problem, but it left an impression on me.

That clock tower was a date spot huh……

When I looked at the explanation with that in mind, I found that the clock tower has a special private room at the top of the tower, which can be used by making a reservation.

However, only one pair per day can use it, and the lottery odds are apparently quite high due to the popularity of the place.

[The sunset viewed from that clock tower is spectacular, and it undoubtedly creates a perfect moment for couples, but in the first place, only those with considerable luck can sit in those special sky-view seats…… or so it was written.]

[Fumu. I see, that’s wonderful. It’s still daytime, so it’s a shame we can’t go there right away, but in the evening, I’d like to go with Kaito-san and experience that perfect moment together.]

[No, in the first place, there’s a lottery…… Ah, no, please wait. It seems they have sealed the place off on days when there are events in the Royal Capital. It had cited the Founding Festival as an example, so it looks like the place would definitely be blockaded today.]

Unsurprisingly, it seems that entry to the Clock Tower is prohibited on the Founding Festival. It’s likely a preventive measure against terrorism just like before, but apart from that, there’s also the possibility of people getting carried away during festivals and engaging in risky behavior, so it’s possible this was prevention from such risks.

Thereupon, upon hearing my words, Shiro-san nodded quietly and spoke.

[I see…… God of Time and Space.]

[Hahh!]

[I want to enjoy this so-called perfect moment with Kaito-san.]

[There isn’t any problem. The clock tower seats have already been prepared, and we have already spoken to King Hydra. Shallow Vernal-sama and Miyama shall be shown inside at the time Shallow Vernal-sama desires……]

[I understand. In that case, I will call on you again at that time.]

[Hahh!]

It’s an overwhelmingly overwhelming support. As to be expected, they really had just as I anticipated…… Well, I had thought that they may have taken the popular spot for couples in the Royal Capital in consideration for their support…… in other words, places like the ones mentioned in this magazine. I have a feeling that considering what places would likely catch Shiro-san’s attention, they have already done some groundwork in advance.

Seriously, I don’t know if I should say it’s to be expected of them or not, but it’s evident that they’re approaching this with thorough preparation.

[……Speaking of which, Shiro-san. As is the case just now, but why does it seem like you’re hesitating to speak when you called Chronois-san?]

[Ahh, I was having second thoughts telling her something. Her growth is progressing smoothly, but it’s not at Fate’s level yet. Therefore, I’ve decided that I should wait a little longer. Well, it shouldn’t take much time……]

Seeing the corners of Shiro-san’s lips raising slightly as she said this, I was able to comprehend her intentions. Shiro-san was probably still having second thoughts about whether to call Chronois-san by her name or not.

After events like the previous White God Festival, it seems that Chronois-san and Life-san have grown up in Shiro-san’s eyes, and she’s contemplating whether to address them by their names, just like she does with Fate-san…… And deciding to wait just a little longer, it seems she decided to call her “God of Time and Space” at the moment.

The expression on Shiro-san’s face as she talked about this was somewhat kind and like a parent having fun watching her child’s growth.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Am I correct in assuming that there’s an Evening after the Afternoon?]

? ? ? : [Isn’t that just how it is?]

Serious-senpai : [D*mn it!]
