  After a leisurely chat with Sieg-san, I was walking from the inn where Lilia-san and the others were staying to the Central Tower.

  The festival seemed to have completely shifted to a night festival, and the streets, lit up by magic tools that glowed like lanterns, seemed to be noisier than during the day.

  Seeing all the people drinking and shopping at the stalls made me want to buy something to eat. So as not to affect my dinner though, I just decided to buy some grilled skewers.

  The best part of festivals, for me personally, is the food. It’s really great to eat freshly made food in a quiet place a little away from the boisterous streets, filled with the unique atmosphere of the festival.

  It’s great to eat skewers while walking around, or to stop and eat yakisoba noodles a few distance away from the stalls.

  ……Hmmm. I wonder what I should buy though…… Those wyvern skewers look good, but the grilled squid over there looks irresistible. However, in a festival, eating those things that look like takoyaki is a staple…… No, I can also go for something sweet, just like the candy apples over there.

  As I walked along, looking at the nearby stalls, trying to decide which stall to buy from…… I suddenly heard a loud, familiar call from behind me.

  [Ahh! Found you~! Kaitokun-saaaan!]

  [……Raz-san?]

  [Yes! Good evening, Kaitokun-san!]

  Flying towards me with a big smile on her face was Raz-san, busily flapping the small wings on her back.

  Coming up to me, Raz-san then began flying around me, speaking to me with a happy expression on her face…… She’s so cute.

  [Good evening, Raz-san. It’s unexpected to meet you at this hour, isn’t it?]

  [Yes! Raz is soooooooo happy to see you, Kaitokun-san!]

  Raz-san expresses her emotions while moving her small body to the best of her ability, which makes her really cute. Raz-san’s existence really soothes one’s heart.

  [……Is Raz-san also here to check out the stalls?]

  [Yes! Raz was helping Kuromu-sama carry vegetables earlier! So, after we finished that, I came to see the festival with Acht-kun and Eva-san~~. Butty but but, Raz felt Kaitokun-san’s magic power along the way! So, I came to see you. Ehehe~~]

  What the heck is this cute little creature…… Even just a single explanation filled with gestures with her small body looked very adorable.

  I wonder if all fairies were as cute as her? If that’s the case, I’d like to visit the fairies’ village once.

  [Kaitokun-san, Kaitokun-san. Are you free right now? If you have time, go around the festival with Raz and the others!]

  [……I guess I could. I can’t stay too late, but if Raz-san doesn’t mind, I’d love to go around with you.]

  [Really!? Yaaayyyy, I’m going around with Kaitokun-san!]

  I was just about to look around the stalls anyway, so I agreed to Raz-san’s suggestion. Thereupon, we move together towards the place where Acht and Eva are.

  Raz-san seemed to be really happy, as she flew next to me with an adorable smile on her face.

  [Ahh, by the way, Raz-san.]

  [What is it?]

  [Actually, during the day, I heard from Neun-san…… errr, about Raz-san’s abilities. Raz-san is amazing huh.]

  I decided to tell her that I had talked about her with Neun-san during the day. Well, the fact that Neun-san told me about it means that it isn’t something that we shouldn’t talk about…… but I think it’s better if the person herself knows about it.

  [Mnnnhhhh, is that so…… Kaitokun-san has now learned about Raz’s abilities huh.]

  [Y- Yes……]

  Hearing what I said, for some reason, Raz-san mumbled with a complicated expression on her face. Her reaction is quite different from what I had expected…… Arehh? Perhaps, was it a topic that she didn’t want people to know much about? Raz-san did say that she didn’t like fighting…… If that’s the case, I should apologize……


  [If Kaito-san knows about it, it can’t be helped…… Yes! It’s just as Kaito-kun san heard! Raz-san can make “flowers bloom”!!!]

  [……Eh?]

  [Raz-san is a flower fairy after all. I can make a lot of flowers bloom! It works a bit differently with vegetables though…… With Raz’s ability, it grows nice and delicious!!! Fufufu, it’s Raz-san’s secret ability…… Don’t tell it to others, okay?]

  [H- Huhh……]

  Arehh? The situation went in an unexpected direction. The ability to make flowers bloom? What about her never-miss arrows?

  [Is something the matter?]

  [Ah, no…… I see. Raz-san is amazing huh.]

  [Eh? R- Really? Raz is amazing?]

  [Yes, Raz-san is really amazing.]

  [Ehehe, is that so? Receiving Kaitokun-san’s praise makes Raz very happy!]

  Seeing Raz-san tilting her head in curiosity, I was convinced. For Raz-san, abilities like a never-miss arrow or an ultra long-range attack…… don’t matter at all.

  For the gentle Raz-san, who had no intention of fighting unless she had to, the first thing that came to her mind when she heard the word ability was her ability to make flowers bloom……

  Dear Mom, Dad————– How should I say this…… It seems like Raz-san is just the same as always. Seriously, Raz-san is small and cute, and she may actually be strong, but she’s very kind…… but most importantly————– She’s the type of person who’s soothing to talk to.
