Chapter 1883: Ship Party ⑧
After greeting Kuro, I decided to go straight to the Six Kings and Human Realm's Three Rulers who were close to my location in turn.
When I moved my gaze away from the place where Kuro was, I saw Isis-san and her subordinates a few distance away, so I decided to visit them next.
When I approached the place where Isis-san and the others were after approaching a certain distance from them, I suddenly felt something. No, it's not exactly that big of a deal, but it felt like I just passed through a thin film.
[Ahh, Kaito. I can somewhat tell what you're thinking. What you have just passed through is Polaris' barrier. Normally, it would be so thin that you wouldn't notice it, but you must have noticed it with your Sympathy Magic.]
[I see, a barrier The location Ahh, so that's how it is.]
[That's right. There's no need to dampen the mood at such a nice party so we should take care of what we can on our side. Well, that's the job of us subordinates, so it's not something you should worry about. Come, let's go to Isis-sama.]
[Alright.]
The place where I felt like I passed through was a few meters away from Isis-san, and as I expected, the range of the barrier enclosed the effective range of the magic power of death.
This is just my guess, but I think those below a certain level of power those who would be deeply affected by the magic power of death aren't allowed to approach. As for me, I've got Shiro-san's blessing or perhaps, it was originally set that I'm able to pass it. Since I heard Polaris-san is an expert of Barrier Magic, it's not surprising that she could manage something like that.
[Hello, Isis-san. Thank you for coming today.]
[Kaito Hello I'm the one who should thank you for inviting me I haven't had the chance to come to parties like this. so it feels refreshing.]
When I greeted her, Isis-san returned the greeting with an easily recognizable bright smile, showing how happy she is. The fact that despite probably never having been able to attend a party before due to the influence of her magic power of death, Isis-san seemed to find the party atmosphere refreshing and somewhat enjoyable left quite the impression in my mind.
I mean, the past Isis-san might have declined party invitations out of consideration for potentially making those around her afraid, but with the increase in dependable subordinates, she seems happier than ever to attend such events, appearing more content than before.
[How should I say this It may sound strange, but Isis-san is now starting to appear in gatherings like this Hmmm, it's hard to express, but I'm kinda glad that you're feeling more positive about it.]
[Unn In fact, until I met Kaito I never went out other than for Festival of Heroes and my hobby but now thanks to Kaito and everyone I'm having a lot of fun and I'm happy Thank you Kaito.]
[In this particular instance, I just invited Isis-san, I haven't done anything else.]
[No That isn't the case Of course, I'm glad that my subordinates care about me in so many ways I'm also happy that I'm now able to think about participating in events like this but what makes me the happiest is that Kaito invited me Coming to see me like this being filled with smiles like this makes me the happiest.]
I understood that there was no lie in those words when I saw Isis-san with a smile on her face that seemed truly happy from the bottom of her heart.
Delighted by all the changes, but what makes her happiest above all is simply meeting me and sharing smiles together, Isis-san straightforwardly conveying her affection felt both tickling and heartwarming, and it brought me the same happiness.
[I can't stay long as I still have to greet the others, but since I'm here, let's have a little chat.]
[Unn I'm glad isn't organizing a party rough? Do you have the time to have some meal?]
[Yes, I'm going to have a quick bite after I greet some people. With such a large number of people, having a leisurely meal might be difficult, but I'm planning to take breaks while Alice is performing her sideshows.]
In this way, Isis-san and I spent some time chatting happily together.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [The chapter before the previous one was like that, the previous chapter was like that, then this chapter Ahh, it's like that huh. Is this gonna be a pattern where they're alternating between Kaito side and Stomachache side!?]
