While Tiana-san and Electrone-san had gone to greet Lilia-san, I called Nebula over, and together with Canalis-san, the three of us were preparing for a barbecue.
[This goat meat seems really good, no unpleasant odor at all. Tahaa~~ though the goat milk tasted pretty mediocre.]
[Discovering such unexpectedly good items is part of the joy of trial and error. It certainly seems mild in both smell and flavor, making it easy to eat.]
[This is my first time trying goat meat, what does it taste like?]
[It’s lean and has a light, refreshing taste. However, parts near the skin can have quite a strong odor, so it’s mon to use things like ginger to remove the smell. But this goat meat hardly has any odor, so I think it’ll be delicious even as is!]
When I asked about the goat meat Canalis-san had prepared, Nebula energetically answered. Sure enough, it looked quite lean, almost similar in appearance to beef round.
At the moment, Canalis-san was preparing the meat and vegetables, I was skewering them, and Nebula was making the barbecue sauce. Chatting lively like this while getting everything ready was actually pretty fun.
As I was leisurely thinking that and continuing preparations, Tiana-san and Electrone-san returned.
[Wele back. Did everything go smoothly with the greeting?]
[We’re back. And hello, Nebula-san…… unn, we were able to greet her without any problems.]
『Outputting impressions…… …… We extend our gratitude once more for Kaito-sama’s advice.』
[……A gift?]
It seemed the greeting had gone well, but Nebula tilted her head curiously at the mention of a gift by Electrone-san.
e to think of it, Nebula hadn’t been around when we decided on the gift.
『What we brought to Lilia Albert. With Kaito-sama’s advice, we created models entirely from materials that exist in this world.』
[Since we heard Lilia-chan likes dragons, we made models of dragons from each of our worlds as gifts.]
[I see…… by the way, are those items “something that can be reproduced using the current technological system of this world”?]
[『……Eh?』]
At Nebula’s question, Electrone-san and Tiana-san both looked as though they had been caught off guard.
[For example, machinery from Makina-san’s world can technically be made using materials that exist in this world. However, since this world lacks the technological framework of mechanical engineering, such machines would be considered unknown items.]
『……The item I provided…… should probably be…… technically possible……』
[……Ah, this might be my mistake. The one I made was materialized by fusing the four great elements, but that kind of technique……]
[……Doesn’t exist here. Even if it did, only a very small number of top-tier individuals, like Kuromueina-san, would be capable of actually achieving it.]
[I- Is that bad?]
[Hmmm, even if someone saw it, it would be difficult to determine just by sight that it was made using fused elemental materialization…… so it should be fine.]
I hadn’t realized it either, but it seemed the model Tiana-san had made couldn’t be reproduced with this world’s current technology.
[It’s fine when giving things to someone in a special position like Milord, or for personal use, but when giving gifts to someone like Lilia-san, you need to be mindful not just of the materials, but also the technological aspects.]
[Understood.]
『My apologies. This unit had been thoughtless.』
e to think of it, Canalis-san also makes incredible items, but only for personal use, either for me or for herself. When it es to creating things like the ordering tablets, I recall she would first check whether they could be reproduced using this world’s technology. If I remember correctly, the tablet works by applying the technology of a magic tool that sends letters placed inside a box to its paired box.
[Should we go apologize to Lilia-chan?]
[No, an apology won’t be necessary. It would only make her feel unfortable…… However, I do think you should visit Lilia-san once more and let her know that the model you gave her is “something she can enjoy privately without any issue, even if it’s not displayed publicly”. No matter how polite and proper you may be, to Lilia-san, you are still overwhelmingly superior beings. It wouldn’t be strange if she felt that a gift from such individuals must be displayed prominently, or it would be disrespectful…… So I think you should tell her it’s perfectly fine to treat it like a personal collection piece, just as one might with something received from Makina-san’s world.]
[I see…… then I’ll go and tell her.]
After nodding in agreement with Nebula’s words, Tiana-san vanished from sight. She had probably gone to convey exactly what Nebula had just said.
[……Hmm, as expected, Nebula really is thoughtful and impressive.]
[I am Absolute after all! One who stands as an absolute must be able to view things from many different perspectives!!!]
[I see, as expected of Nebula.]
As I gently patted Nebula on the head, finding her small figure puffing out her chest rather endearing, she narrowed her eyes and smiled happily in response.
Absolute : [……Straighten things up.]
Stomachache Devil : [……Ah, yes.]
Serious-senpai : [She removed the Continuous Stomachache Induction Device immediately!? S- So this is the Absolute……]
