I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace

Holding hands with Tre-san, we headed toward the stalls in the plaza. Seeing Tre-san happily walking next to me with a smile on her face, it made me feel strangely happy as well.

We had just eaten some Symphonia-yaki, and I had also eaten some of the food Tre-san had bought while we were at the stalls, so I wanted to focus on the stalls where we could play.

[Ahh, let's go do that, Kaito!]

[Target practice huh…… Ahh, come to think of it, Tre-san is good at target practice, aren't you?]

[Fufufu, you can count on that.]

At the White God Festival, Tre-san showed off her marksmanship skills. It's just, well, it's just like Tre-san to give the impression that she's good at what she does, even though she said at the time that it was her very first time trying out a stall like that.

And so, I went to a target shooting stall with her and found out why she was so good at target shooting.

……Her reach is on a different level. Tre-san was taller and had longer arms and legs, so her gun was obviously closer to the prize than mine. Well, of course I still need to factor in one's shooting sense, but I think this reach is a powerful weapon.

In fact, Tre-san was hitting the prize just as much as she did at the White God Festival, not quite 100 times out of 100, but she still hits 90% of the time.

[Fufun. You see that, Kaito? Aren't I great?]

[You really are great at target practice.]

[Ehhen!]

Tre-san put the prizes she got in her magic box with a smug look on her face. The magic box is really convenient for times like this, as it saves us from having to carry our luggage.

After that, we took turns with Cento-san and Cien-san, and as I was watching them play target practice, my hand was suddenly pulled away.

[Look, look, Kaito. Isn't that a stall from the other world?]

[……Target shooting is also from the other world though…… Heehhh…… Isn't that Superball scooping? How nostalgic.]

[Oh, you've done that before?]

[Back then…… More than a decade ago.]

[Isn't that pretty recent?]

[……I guess so.]

Speaking of which, even though she looks like that, Tre-san is well over 10,000 years old. Of course, if I talked about 10 years ago, that would be something very recent for someone with Tre-san's senses.

Well, anyhow, it was a Superball scooping game. Moreover, it was a poi scoop…… I remember doing this when I was in grade school, we had to scoop balls with something like a dried rind poi, but this store uses a regular poi.

[Hey, let's try it out.]

[I guess so. Let's try it once then.]

[Alright, then, I'll go first……]

[Tre-san, isn't that a little too big? As expected, your scoop would tear……]

[It's alright, it's alright————- Ahh.]

[See that!?]

As soon as Tre-san received the poi, she tried to show off and scoop the biggest ball, but a big superball wasn't going to be scooped by that no matter how you looked, as it certainly tore her poi scoop.

[……I thought I could do it when I'm filled with mysterious power.]

[I don't think it's good to rely on some sort of mysterious power.]

[It's no good huh~~ Well then, go have your turn, Kaito, and let us reflect on our failures together.]

[Please stop assuming I will immediately lose.]

I'm sure I can scoop at least one…… I can, right? Alright, let's aim for a smaller one. Let's go about this carefully…… Arehh? There's something strange about this superball, from the way it feels in my hand, it kinda feels heavier than it looks.

Is it dense, or is it the type with something inside…… Either way, it looks like my poi is going to tear.

[…………………]

[……Kaito, don't get discouraged. Everyone has times when things around them go wrong, so don't let defeat get to you.]

[Why the heck does you sound like you've won, Tre-san!?]

In the end, both Tre-san and I scooped zero balls, and the person at the stalls gave us one superball each as a consolation prize. Hmmm, because of the fact that Tre-san and I are both the same in terms of ability, I'm feeling quite heated, feeling some sense of rivalry against her.

[Hey, hey, Kaito?]

[Unnn? Did you find another stall?]

[No, Cento and Cien got lost.]

[……Eh?]

Tre-san's words made me turn around in a hurry, but they really weren't there…… They were supposed to have been behind us just a little while ago…… How did this happen? Ah, wait, that's right! The two of them were playing target practice when Tre-san pulled me by the hand and we moved to the Superball scooping stall.

The distance between the stalls was just enough for us to see them, but because there were so many people, they must have lost sight of us and gone looking for us. Even now, I couldn't see the two of them near the target shooting stall.

I heard that it's difficult to detect magic power in such a crowded place, and in the first place, they wouldn't be able to detect my magic power due to the influence of Shiro-san's blessing.

[Well, it can't be helped if we got separated! We'll definitely end up meeting up with them soon, so let's just go to the next stall.]

[W- Wait a moment. I'll go contact the two of them…… Let's go meet up with them first before going.]

Fortunately, Tre-san wasn't the only one that got lost, and I'm here with her. If it had just been Tre-san, she would have just carefreely gone about and headed to the next stall, but since I was here, I could use a hummingbird to call for the twins and meet up with them.

That was really good. However, this sure is terrifying. We should have been paying attention to this, but we somehow slipped through the cracks of our consciousness and ended up naturally drifting apart.

No wonder the two of them, who were that powerful, lost sight of her so often. In a sense, Tre-san's ability to slip through the cracks of people's consciousness may be a talent of hers.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Indeed, a talent for covert actions…… Nah, there's no way huh. She's too boisterous.]
