Chapter 1557 - Gifts for My Lovers ⑧

[Welcome. You have great timing, I just brewed a fresh pot of herb tea.]

[Hello, Dr. Vier. Ahh, that great timing…… You mean, to brew your tea “again”?]

[Unnn. I kinda dropped the pot earlier……]

[Ahh, I see.]

It seemed like she was as clumsy as usual, as she had already dropped a pot of herb tea she had brewed once. As I watched Dr. Vier scratched her head with a wry smile, a wry smile also appeared on my lips. Even though she was quite clumsy a lot of times, Dr. Vier is a Peak Count-rank, so it’s a bit reassuring to not have to worry about her getting burned or injured…… Well, that’s probably why she was so negligent that she screws up so often……

[So, what’s the subject for your visit today?]

[Ahh, you see, I mentioned before that I was going to have a stall at Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival, right?]

[You did say that. Even though it hasn’t been that long since Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival, you’re quite the busy bee, Miyama-kun~~]

[Ahaha, well, in a way, Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival is also the reason why I’m attending there.]

In the first place, this all started when Amel-san felt down because I didn’t invite her when I opened a stall for Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival.

Thinking that way, in a sense, it’s like I opened a stall at Archlesia Empire’s Founding Festival because I opened one at Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival.

[In that case, why don’t you complete the set and participate in Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival as well?]

[No, as expected, that’s just rough. If I were to participate in Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival, I would rather just be looking around the stalls.]

[Ahh~~ I see, that certainly is difficult to do when you’re opening a stall, isn’t it? During Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival, I was also involved in helping at an external relief facility, so I didn’t have much time to look around.]

[Because many people inevitably get injured in the heat of the moment, doctors certainly are busy.]

Dr. Vier helped out at a simple relief facility where doctors gathered for Symphonia Kingdom’s Founding Festival. It was like those first-aid tents at events, where injured and sick people get treated.

[Well, it’s a festival after all, so it can’t be helped. Oops, sorry, sorry, we’re getting off track, aren’t we?]

[No, please don’t worry about it. So, getting to the point……]

When I explained that I made the accessories to give to my lovers when I made the products to sell at the Founding Festival, Dr. Vier’s eyes lit up and she looked happy.

[Ahh, I got it! It’s a ring, right? If I’m not mistaken, otherworlders give them to their lover as a gift!]

[Well, you aren’t mistaken, but you’re having some misunderstanding…… In any case, unfortunately, what I’m giving you now isn’t a ring.]

Perhaps the ring that Dr. Vier is thinking about is the engagement ring. In the world of polygamous Trinia, the culture of giving an engagement ring to your spouse doesn’t exist. Instead, there are some similar exchanges, such as exchanging matching jewelry at weddings……

[I see~~ Not “now” huh~~ Then, the ring…… would come at a later date……right?]

[……Y- You’re right.]

Mhmm? Could she actually not be misunderstanding and actually had an accurate understanding of how rings in our world works? H- Hmmm, I’m not sure. She kinda has this mischievous smile on her lips, but at the same time, that doesn’t seem to be the case.

[W- Well, for the time being, what I’ve prepared for you is a necklace.]

[Ohh, it’s beautiful. It’s silver, no, gray? It looks like my hair color.]

[Yes, I actually chose the jewel based on the color of Dr. Vier’s hair, which is a combination of Gray Diamond and Platinum.]

What I prepared for Dr. Vier was a necklace. First of all, since Dr. Vier is a doctor, I thought accessories worn on the hands and arms might get in the way. Also, she wears something like a headdress for nuns, so I thought hair ornaments and earrings might not be visible, which is why I chose a necklace.

As for the reason why I chose to make it into a cross-like shape, well, her nun-like clothes really just had this strong impression on me.

[Thank you! I’m really glad~~ Wait, I’ll have to properly cast State Preservation magic on it and make sure I won’t break it.]

[If you’re delighted with it, it would make me happy too.]

[Ehehe…… Ahh, by the way, do you still have some free time?]

[Yes, I don’t have any urgent plans.]

[I see, then while we’re at it, why don’t we go have lunch together? There’s a good restaurant near here, you know?]

[That sounds great. I’d be happy to join you.]

It was just around lunchtime, and Dr. Vier’s suggestion was right on time. Having finished my herb tea, I got up from my seat and helped clean up her place a bit, before we headed for the entrance of the clinic to get ready to depart together.

[Ahh, Miyama-kun, stop for a moment.]

[Yes?]

[Thanks for the accessory——– Chuu.]

[Eh?]

[Fufufu, it’s just a token of my appreciation. Then, let’s go~~!]

After giving me a surprise kiss on the cheek and giving me a smile, Dr. Vier pulled me by the hand and walked away with a grin.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……I’m alright…… I’m alright. I’m a seriously strong serious…… I’ve overcome the rough seas of sugar many times before…… I’ll definitely be alright this time too……]

? ? ? : [You overcame those? Seems more like you got swept away and got crushed though……]
