I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

Chapter 490 Please Let me Draw Something That Will Make Sieg-san Happy



After lunch, we took a leisurely stroll around the festival to digest our meals. Perhaps, because today’s festival allowed large monsters to participate as pets, the streets were made very wide and there was plenty of room to walk around with Bell.

With Lynn’s stomach filled, it seemed like she had become sleepy, as she had burrowed into my clothes and was lightly snoring. She fell asleep really fast huh.

As we continued to leisurely look around the festival with no particular focus, Dr. Vier seemed to have suddenly noticed something, as she stopped, and looked to the right before speaking.

[……Aren’t those Lu-chan and the others?]

[……Eh? No, it’s too far away for me to see though.]

[It really is Duchess Lilia. It seems like she’s troubled about something.]

……No, even if Dr. Vier and Neun-san were able to see them, all I can see is just that white mountain-like something in the distance, and a lot of people gathered at its foot.

[Hmmm. Since we met them by chance, how about we go talk to them?]

[I agree.]

[Me too…… I still can’t see where they are, but I agree.]

I was also concerned about how Neun-san said “she looked troubled about something”, so I agreed with Dr. Vier’s suggestion. Then, we turned back for a bit, walking to where Lilia-san and the others were…… apparently.

As we got closer and closer, I could finally see Lilia-san and the others.

The trio of Lilia-san, Luna-san and Sieg-san was standing in front of a white pile…… of 10cm cubic boxes, which were literally piled up like a mountain.

Just as Neun-san had said, the three of them were discussing something with serious expressions on their faces.

As we got closer, I could finally hear a little bit of what the three of them were discussing.

[I think we should go on the offensive though……]

[Luna, you’re being irresponsible. Sure, the returns are great…… but the risks are also high…… Aren’t they, Sieg?]

[……Yes. It’s quite concerning.]

I had gotten close enough to clearly hear what they were saying, but the three of them didn’t seem to have noticed me, as they continued discussing something very serious.

How should I say this…… They sound so serious that it’s kind of making it difficult to approach them……

[Oooooiiii, Lu-chan, Lilia-chan, Sieg-chan~~]

[ [ [ Dr. Vier !? ] ] ]

While I was thinking such things, Dr. Vier intruded in without any hesitation at all, making the three of them turn to her in surprise.

[What a coincidence, meeting you all here. It seemed like you’re discussing something serious, is something the matter?]

As expected of Dr. Vier…… She has a high-level communipower. I thought that my communipower had been increasing these days, but seeing how she easily intruded in on their conversation made me realize how I’m still not high level enough.

Hearing what Dr. Vier said with a bright smile, Lilia-san and the others almost simultaneously pointed at the pile of white boxes behind them.

[……Unnn? Let’s see…… “Six Kings Festival Limited Edition Monster Lottery ~~ One Try, One Gold Coin ~~ “?]

[Yes, we’re discussing whether Sieg should try it out or not……]

As Dr. Vier read the sign in front of the pile of white boxes, Lilia-san began explaining.

Monster lottery…… Ahh, I see, those white boxes are disposable magic boxes just like those used in random boxes! Even so, there sure are lots of them in there…… I guess there are around thousands? No, around tens of thousands?

Moreover, it’s a million yen for one try…… This gacha is bad civilization.

[Whether Sieg-chan should?]

[Sieg actually wants to keep a monster……]

[Yes, but…… Any monster that Sieg thinks is cute is beyond her budget…… My Lady even offered to lend her some money, but Sieg wanted to buy it with her own money if possible……]

Luna-san added additional information to assist Lilia-san’s explanation. When we met this morning, Sieg-san was very enthusiastic about buying a monster, but it seems that the price of a monster was so high that she couldn’t afford it.

[……And then, as we were looking around, we stumbled upon this lottery.]

[Monster lottery…… I guess this means you can get a random monster here?]

[Yes, to be exact…… You can apparently get a “monster egg”.]

[Eh? But I thought eggs were expensive……]

Hearing what Sieg-san muttered with a troubled expression on her face, I asked, to which I received an unexpected reply.

[Yes, that’s right…… That’s also the reason, I guess? After all, in this Monster lottery…… There are so many fail draws in it.]

[Fail draws?]

[You can also draw stuff that isn’t monster eggs from them. There’s a chance that you could draw a tool in raising a monster or a model of a monster…… but the chance that you win an egg is about 10%.]

[Fumu……]

After listening to Sieg-san’s explanation, I nodded my head in understanding. Considering that it’s a gacha, I guess you could say that having a 10% chance of drawing an egg was already quite good but…… Since it costs one gold coin for one draw, it’s a pretty expensive lottery…… and with the money Sieg-san had prepared, she could only draw about three times.

Thereupon, Neun-san, who hadn’t participated in the conversation up to this point, spoke while staring at the pile of white boxes.

[……Since it’s a lottery…… Does that mean that the prize is a pretty good monster?]

[Yes…… the special prize is the “Rainbow Dragon”, which is said to be the most beautiful dragon there is!]

[Eeeehhhh!? A- A rainbow dragon? T- That’s amazing……]

[Yes. The first prize is also a “Black Metal Dragon”, while the second prize is a “Graptail”!]

[……I guess it’s to be expected from a festival sponsored by Magnawell-sama huh.]

……Unnn, if Lilia-san was excitedly talking about them, I guess they must be pretty awesome monsters. Dr. Vier and Neun-san also seemed to be surprised…… However, their reactions didn’t really manage to convey how awesome they were to the clueless me.

At that moment, Luna-san approached me, as if she had noticed I was clueless about what they were talking about.

[To put it simply, the Rainbow Dragon is a rare dragon. It is said that there are only about “5 Rainbow Dragons left in the world”, making them incredibly expensive…… It’s unlikely that they would be sold anywhere, but supposing that it really happened, their price would easily exceed “1000 white gold coins”.]

[T- They’re that expensive……]

[A Rainbow Dragon’s tail produces the “Rainbow Diamond”, which is even called “The Supreme Gem”. It takes about a year for a Rainbow Dragon to produce one again after it is collected…… Which would make it easy for you to earn that 1000 white gold coins you may have used to buy this Rainbow Dragon.]

[I- I see……]

[To be honest, I’m also surprised…… An egg of a Rainbow Dragon…… You can’t even call that rare anymore.]

Hmmm, it seems to be a pretty awesome prize. So, that’s why so many people are trying to draw the lottery…… No matter where you were in the world, gacha is bad civilization.

As I thought about this, Lilia-san and Sieg-san looked troubled again.

[……If we’re going to draw the lottery, even with Sieg’s budget…… It’s not impossible to get a dragon. But if we just draw fails……]

[Hmmm. That certainly is concerning. There are so many boxes here…… “Unless you have a large amount of luck”, you ca…… Arehh?]

[ [ [ [ ……Luck? ] ] ] ]

[……Ehh?]

Right after Dr. Vier muttered that with a troubled look on her face…… All eyes focused on me.

[……What do you think, Luna?]

[We’re well aware that Miyama-sama’s luck is on an inhumane level.]

[Indeed, if it’s Miyama-kun…… There’s a really high chance that you could draw a jackpot, right?]

[Yes, I also think that if it’s Kaito-san, he should be able to do it……]

[……Eh? No, errr……]

Arehh? Could it be…… No, they can’t be planning to have me draw the lottery for them, right? N- No, no, having me do this brings me too much pressure, don’t you think!? I mean, if I draw a fail, I may end up destroying Sieg-san……

As I was feeling bewildered, Sieg-san came in front of me and deeply bowed, holding out three gold coins.

[……Please, Kaito-san…… Please…… lend me your strength.]

[……L- Leave it to me.]

……It was the wish of a cute girl. It would be a shame for a man not to respond here. U- Unnn. Worst case scenario, in the situation where I draw a fail…… I will draw additional tries out of my own pocket.

Dear Mom, Dad————– By no means did it occur to me that I would be drawing from the Monster lottery on behalf of Sieg-san. To be honest, I’m feeling unbelievable pressure on my shoulders. Oh God, I pray to you. Somehow———— Please let me draw a monster that will make Sieg-san happy.
