Chapter 1007 - White God Festival, Noon ④
Glancing at Sieg-san, she seemed to be getting nervous, but it doesn’t seem like she’d approach her anytime soon. Perhaps, she may be waiting for us to finish talking with each other.
If that’s the case, I’ll go ahead with my business with her…… and thank her for that incident in the God Realm.
[Jutia-san, thank you for your help in that incident in the God Realm back then.]
[Ahh, you’re welcome. Ehehe, I’m glad, I’m glad, words of gratitude are quite lovely words. Hearing it makes me glad.]
[So, simple it may be, I’ve prepared a thank you gift…… Would you like food or trinkets?]
[You don’t have to mind it…… though if I say that, you would feel troubled about it, right? Then, let’s do it this way! Can you hold out your hand in front of you?]
[Eh? L- Like this?]
I tilted my head at the strange request, but I just held out my opened right hand in front of me. Thereupon, she grabbed my hand, and shook it up and down with a happy smile on her face.
[Ehehe, tis great, tis great, tis a very warm and gentle hand. Unnn, unnn, I feel like you’re a child loved by nature!]
[Errr……]
[Well then, well then, that’s enough of a thank you for me.]
[Eh? Eeehhh? A handshake as a thank you?]
[That’s right, that’s right, that’s more than enough. After all, after all, you went out of your way to smile and thank me like this, sharing your happiness with me. And on top of that, I got to shake hands with you, a gentle man loved by nature. Tis great, tis great, I’m so happy right now! Even if you give me anything more than that, my little hands won’t be able to hold them.]
With a dazzling smile on her face, Jutia-san spoke with genuine happiness. The emotions conveyed by my Sympathy Magic were also straightforward happiness and good will, and I could tell that Jutia-san meant her words, and that she doesn’t need me to thank her any more than this.
[I’m glad, I’m glad, I’m so happy that you’re so happy that you’ve overcome that battle.]
Saying this, Jutia-san released my hand and gave me a thumbs-up…… As expected, handing something to her after she told me this much makes me feel uncomfortable.
Thus, I looked straight into Jutia-san’s beautiful verdant green eyes and thanked her again.
[……Jutia-san, please allow me to say it one last time. Thank you very much.]
[Oya? Ehehe, one more time eh~~ I’m glad, I’m glad, it seems like today is a very great day.]
Even after just a short conversation, I could tell that Jutia-san was a really nice person, and I really enjoyed talking to this cheerful person.
However, I would feel bad for Sieg-san if I talked to her too long, so I looked at Sieg-san to indicate that I have somewhat finished talking to her.
Thereupon, Sieg-san nodded once and approached Jutia-san with a tense gait.
[……U- Ummm, J- Jutia-sama!]
[Umyu?]
[N- Nice to meet you, I- I’m Sieglinde…… of the Elven tribe! I- It’s an honor to meet you!]
I’ve never seen Sieg-san so stiff before. She seemed to be someone she really admires, and I could feel her excitement quite strongly even without my Sympathy Magic.
Seeing such a Sieg-san, Jutia-san looked a little puzzled for a moment, but then she immediately smiled brightly.
[I see, I see, an Elven child huh~~. Tis great, tis great, you calling out to me makes me happy! It seems like you already know me, but I’m Jutia. Nice to meet you.]
Seeing Jutia-san’s bright smile, Sieg-san felt a little relieved, and their conversation gradually progressed.
As I watched such a scene, Luna-san walked closer to me and spoke.
[……Jutia-sama is famous for her warmth and kindness, and even when commoners approach her, she would respond to them with a smile, and will even engage in small talk with them if she had nothing urgent to do.]
[Ahh~~ I could somehow feel like that would be the case. Jutia-san seemed like a really nice person.]
Jutia-san certainly had this atmosphere around her that made it easy to talk to. I don’t know if it’s because of her personality or not, but she seems like the kind of person you’d be comfortable asking for directions on the street, and she seems like she’d be happy to help.
In fact, Sieg-san, who was so nervous at first, now seems to be enjoying talking to Jutia-san.

[Afterword]
Serious-senpai : [……I was just thinking.]
? ? ? : [What’s up?]
Serious-senpai : [Each of the Seven Princesses has pretty strong individualities, but all of them seemed to be good people.]
? ? ? : [That’s right, clearly different from my group’s perverts. I wonder if she’d mind trading at least half of her group with mine…… I mean, what the heck is with this difference between our groups?]
Serious-senpai : [……I guess the Executives would resemble their Kings, don’t you think?]
? ? ? : [If that’s the case, then all of the Ten Demons should be well-behaved, right?]
Serious-senpai : [Eh?]
? ? ? : [Eh?]
