I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN) C.1957: Neo Baby Castella Blend ⑨

During our casual chat over coffee, probably because we had discussed a bit while on the move, the topic naturally shifted to relationships. This time, though, it wasn’t about my own love life but rather about Ozma’s. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

[Ozma-san, you mentioned you prefer a quiet woman, but isn’t Epsilon-san cool and calm?]

[……Ah~~ I suppose so. She usually is, well…… like that, I guess.]

……It seems like there’s a bit of a discrepancy in our impressions here. Sure, being one of the War King's subordinates, Epsilon-san is also aggressive and likes fighting, but she generally has a cool impression. However, Ozma-san’s response seems a bit evasive.

It feels like while acknowledging Epsilon-san’s coolness, he’s suggesting that that isn't the case when it comes to romance.

[Epsilon-chan is indeed cool and calm, and she’s a good person. But setting aside the fact that she’s a subordinate of the War King and likes fighting, if we focus only on romance-related matters…… Epsilon-chan is kinda…… umm…… heavy with her affection.]

[……Ah, I think I get what you mean. The problem is in that direction huh……]

[In fact, because Uncle is stronger than her that there's no problem, but if Epsilon-chan had been stronger than me…… I fear she might just confine me before I knew it. Ah, no, I don't mean to speak ill of Epsilon-chan, but she just gives off that kind of image……]

I see, so Epsilon-san’s affection is intense and somewhat suffocating…… Now that he mentions it, she does seem like the type to cling strongly to things she likes.

[In terms of romance, Agni-chan is the type to aggressively pursue head-on. Epsilon-chan, on the other hand, tends to strategize and cut off any escape routes…… There was even a time when preparations for a wedding were advancing without Uncle knowing……]

[……A- Ahh, I see…… So she would prepare everything and invite the other Six Kings, making it impossible to cancel the wedding at the last minute huh……]

It’s likely that her affection for Ozma-san plays a part, but it could also be that since her straightforward approaches have been rejected, she resorts to more underhanded tactics…… Imagining how Ozma-san felt upon realizing that wedding preparations had advanced without him noticing is genuinely frightening.

[……In that sense, Agni-chan is much easier to deal with in romance. Agni-chan only makes her approach head-on. Epsilon-chan, on the other hand, always changes her approach, which is troublesome…… Well, it’s a relief that since Uncle is stronger, the range of strategies she can use is somewhat limited.]

[How should I say this…… You also got it rough huh, Ozma-san.]

[Hahaha, well, both of them are good girls…… I just don’t know why they’re so fixated on this with a dried-up middle-aged guy like me…… Well, there's also the part where I find it more comfortable to be single.]

[Fumu…… By the way, what are Bacchus-san and Kong-san’s romantic situations like?]

Well, the reason Agni-san and Epsilon-san’s approaches aren’t working is largely due to Ozma-san’s lack of desire for marriage or romance, which greatly influences the situation.

And since we’re on the topic, I decided to ask about the romantic situations of the other members of the War King's Five Generals.

[Kong-kun is the type to cut off things he doesn’t understand or is not good at, so he seems completely uninterested in romance. Bacchus-kun, on the other hand, has about 80 wives.]

[Eeehhhh!? 80 wives!?]

[Ah~~ No, it might be a bit different from what you're imagining, Miyama-kun……. We have a lot of hotblooded individuals here…… There are many women among the War King's subordinates, and most of them prefer men who are stronger than themselves. Some of them are the type to impulsively confess their feelings after a mock battle where they’ve given their all.]

……Are they some kind of amazon or what? Well, the War King's subordinates do have that kind of nature…… Of course, not everyone is like that, but it’s undeniable that it’s a faction with many battle fanatics.

[And so, Bacchus-kun doesn’t refuse any of these confessions. When someone confesses, he says something like, "Umu, I will allow you to call yourself my wife until your feelings wane" and he’s the type who doesn’t chase after those who leave……]

[I see. So, even if someone’s feelings wane and they want to end the marriage, he doesn’t particularly try to keep them and just lets the relationship dissolve?]

[Unn, well, that's what the person himself intends to do…… But despite his appearance, Bacchus-kun is quite attentive. He frequently gives small gifts and checks in with his wives, so not many of them actually want to end their marriage.]

I see, Bacchus-san is quite considerate…… Come to think of it, Megiddo-san often designates Bacchus-san when assigning sudden tasks and he seemed to be considerate towards Lilia-san when we first met and had a party in her garden.

Still, having 80 wives is impressive…… He might be at the top among the acquaintances I’ve known so far……

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [He's considerate towards Lilia? ……Ah, that stuff that happened in the manga huh…… However, if Bacchus has that much romantic experience, it seems like Ozma should consult him.]

? ? ? : [Actually, his experience isn’t that extensive. As Ozma-san said, his relationships were mostly the result of just one pattern…… And Bacchus-san’s opinion would definitely be something like "Why not just accept the proposal?"]
