I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN) Chapter 1851: Ship Party Invitations

Chapter 1851: s.h.i.+p Party Invitations ④

The official date for the s.h.i.+p party was decided and the invitations were completed and sent to the people to be invited.

The food and other details have been decided on under Kaori-san’s leaders.h.i.+p, and there are no problems with procuring the ingredients, so it can be said that our preparations are almost complete.

The remaining problem now is to request people to a.s.sist as servers on the day of the event…… from the World Maid a.s.sociation.

[Master, I think requesting personnel from the World Maid a.s.sociation would be all good, but wouldn’t it be difficult to persuade Ein-dono?]

[Unnn. Well, I’m worried about that…… but I came up with a good strategy, so I’ve decided to use that approach.]

[……A good strategy?]

Ein-san has a past record of quietly joining the hosting side even during the previous housewarming party. Of course, her abilities are tremendously high, but this time, I intend to have her attend strictly as an invited guest.

However, it would take a lot of effort to convince Ein-san of that. Despite how she usually acts subservient, Ein-san is quite a stubborn person, so much so that Alice has given up persuading her when it comes to maid-related matters.

I think that if I ask her patiently, she will eventually break down, but there’s a surer way than that, so I decided to go with that method.

Kuromueina’s Castle, Demon Realm. Ein had an indescribable expression on her face as she looked at Kuromueina, who was right in front of her.

[……So, it seems that Kaito-kun wants to hire staff from the World Maid a.s.sociation for the party he’s hosting. There will be meetings regarding wages and such, so if it’s possible…… please introduce an appropriate number of “maids other than Ein” promptly.]

[……Of course, if it’s Kaito-sama’s request, the World Maid a.s.sociation will fully support him, and considering it’s a party hosted by the Maid Advisor Kaito-sama, there will likely be a lot of partic.i.p.ants. However, it’s still necessary to have personnel who can take command……]

[Unn, unn. You’re right. He’d certainly need someone to oversee the whole thing. Pick out some good ones other than Ein. Of course, the World Maid a.s.sociation has plenty of talent, and there are also those who can oversee the entire operation, right?]

[……Ugh.]

Yes, Kaito’s strategy for dealing with Ein was simple. It was to explain the situation to Kuromueina and have Kuromueina relay his request……

Ein is quite stubborn when it comes to maid-related matters, but she generally doesn’t defy Kuromueina. She’s currently considering whether she can also lend a hand, but of course, Kuromueina knows that and has been thoroughly crus.h.i.+ng such thoughts.

[Ein would only be a guest this time, so apart from introductions, there’s no need for you to be involved in preparations. I’ve also heard from Kaito-kun that everything is already well-prepared…… Understand?]

[……Uuu, h- however…… This is Kaito-sama’s first time hosting a party…… Although there was also that housewarming party, Kaito-sama wasn’t really involved in the preparations, so in a sense, this is his first time setting up one……]

[Unnn. That’s right. He apparently got helped out by a certain troublesome child he didn’t ask help for and had almost everything done for him.]

[Fghh…… T- That is…… Ummm……]

[That’s why, this time, Kaito-kun wants to prepare without relying on Ein and others…… Of course, if it’s Ein, you should be able to understand Kaito-kun’s intentions and would behave obediently…… Right?]

Kuromueina had a smile on her lips. A harmless smile it was, but it carried an undeniable intensity behind it. Rather, since the one who scolds Ein when she goes off on a tangent about maid-related matters would naturally be Kuromueina, Ein couldn’t really oppose Kuromueina when she’s like that.

[……U- Umm…… If it’s just a little helping……]

[No.]

[I- If it’s just giving some advice……]

[No…… If you keep persisting with your selfishness, I’ll forbid wearing a maid uniform on the day of the party and make you wear a dress instead.]

[Auuuu…… T- That’s just…… Yes. Understood. I’ll give up on helping this time.]

Ein tried to resist a little, but her efforts were easily crushed, and in the end, she reluctantly agreed not to be involved in party preparations other than introducing staff.

Serious-senpai : [I see, if it’s related to Ein…… Indeed, having her hold her down is the most reliable option.]
