Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear-Chapter 556 - Bear-san, Resumes Making Plushies

Bear-san, Resumes Making Plushies

When I came to Misa’s house, I greeted Leonardo-san. And when he heard about our visit, he said, “Please stay with us for as many days as you like”. But I politely declined, as I could not be away for too long.

After greeting Leonardo-san, I moved to Misa’s room.

Misa looked at me excitedly. She asked for Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, so I summoned them to Misa’s room.

When I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, Misa ran to Hugging Bear and rubbed his body, and then she moved to Swaying Bear’s body.

“Hugging Bear-chan, Swaying Bear-chan, it’s been a while.” (Misa)

“Ku~u ~ n”

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear happily replied.

“I envy Noa-oneesama and Fina-chan who can see Hugging Bear-chan and Swaying Bear-chan anytime they want.” (Misa)

Misa happily embraced Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.

Looking around the room, I found the Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plushies I had given her for her birthday on her bedside table. It seems that she was properly taking care of them.

It would be pitiful if they were stored in a closet or something. So I am happy to see it on the bedside table.

“Yuna-oneesama. May I ride on the back of Hugging Bear-chan?” (Misa)

“Sure.” (Yuna)

When I gave permission, Hugging Bear sat down to make it easier for Misa to ride. Then Misa climbed on Hugging Bear’s back.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve sat on Hugging Bear-chan’s back. Yuna-oneesama, may I go walk around the mansion?” (Misa)

“I don’t mind, but won’t they be surprised by it?” (Yuna)

“It’s all right. The people in the mansion know about both Hugging Bear-chan and Swaying Bear-chan.” (Misa)

Come to think of it, I summoned them at her birthday party, and after that, I rescued her from the toad.

So maybe it’s better than I thought it would.

I turned Swaying Bear into a cub, hugged him, and walked outside the room with Misa riding on Hugging Bear.

And when I saw the iron golem on the second floor, I was surprised for a moment.

Oh right. I gave it to Gran-san as a gift. I had completely forgotten about it. While I was surprised by the golem, the maids were touching Hugging Bear, but the walk went on without a hitch. They were certainly not afraid of the bears.

At night, the four of us sleep together after listening to Misa’s wish to sleep with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.

And the following day. I thanked Gran-san and the others and left the mansion. Misa looked a little lonely, but I can’t help it.

When I went to the commercial guild, the staff took me to the Guildmaster’s room.

“Mylene-san, it’s not fair!” (Rosa)

“Yes. It’s tyrannical.” (Ran)

“I thought we should be fair here?” (Senia)

When I entered the room, I saw Rosa-san, Ran, and Senia-san questioning Mylene-san. The men, including Jade-san, were looking at them in amazement.

What’s going on here?

Did something go wrong, perhaps?

“Yuna, good morning.”

Jade-san noticed me and greeted me.

“Yeah, good morning. What happened?” (Yuna)

“Simply put, it’s a fight for the bears.” (Jade)

“The bears? You mean Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear?” (Yuna)

When I heard the situation, it was a silly argument about who would ride Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear back to Crimonia. That’s why the men were looking at them with dismayed faces.

“Yuna-chan, who will you put on Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan?” (Mylene)

I didn’t really care who would be riding on Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, but still, the argument jumped to me.

However, there was no single solution that would satisfy them. On the contrary, I have a method that no one will agree with.

“I will go home alone.” (Yuna)

This way, they won’t argue with each other.

It’s better if I alone bear their grudge.

“And there you have it, I’m going home by myself.” (Yuna)

As I was about to leave the room, Mylene-san stopped me.

“Yuna-chan, wait. I really have to hurry back. I came here without telling them, after all.” (Mylene)

Come to think of it, she did. Even though she left a letter behind, she still came here without saying a word.

“So I have to get back quickly.” (Mylene)

When she puts it that way, it’s hard to be indifferent.

I explained the situation when I brought Mylene-san here.

“We needed to report to Mylene-san.” (Jade)

“And everyone agreed.” (Blitz)

Jade-san and Blitz looked at Mylene-san with sympathy.

“But that doesn’t mean you have to leave.” (Yuna)

“It’s not easy being a Guildmaster in a commercial guild. You can’t just throw away your work and go out.” (Mylene)

After discussion, it was decided that Mylene-san and I would ride Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear back to Crimonia.

We might be able to accommodate two people more, but the others reluctantly decided not to, saying we were in a hurry.

So, Mylene-san and I would ride Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear back to Crimonia ahead of the rest of the group.

We can make it back in less than half a day if we hurry.

Then, we arrived at Crimonia. I went to the commercial guild with her because of the cotton.

Mylene-san scanned the area and went around to the back entrance of the commercial guild.

“Be quiet.” (Mylene)

“I don’t see the point in being quiet or anything, because eventually people will know.” (Yuna)

You can’t just go out and come in quietly.

“I know. But just in case.” (Mylene)

She opened the back door and sneakily walked in, only to find a woman standing all alone.

“Guildmaster, you’re back late.” (Staff)

“Yeah, I had a sudden job, and it was tough.” (Mylene)

“I’m not saying that you can’t go, but please don’t leave without telling me.” (Staff)

“I left a letter for you, didn’t I?” (Mylene)

“As I have said many times, I ask that you do so verbally.” (Staff)

It wasn’t the first time, apparently.

Mylene-san received a warning, but the staff wasn’t angry that much. Still, when she saw the pile of work on the desk, Mylene-san hung her head.

Perhaps the guild staff was prioritizing work rather than getting angry.

I went to Naru-san’s store to officially purchase the cotton. Normally, the person who gets it back has the rights to what the bandit stole, but this time I got a commission, so what I got back would be returned to the original owner. So, I officially purchased it.

Having purchased the cotton, I called Fina and the others to the bear house.

“Yuna-san, you went to subjugate the bandits in order to recover the cotton?” (Noa)

“It was stolen, so I have to get it back.” (Yuna)

What’s mine is mine… (including planned purchases)

“Now then, let’s do the finishing touches.” (Yuna)

“Yes!” “Yes” “Un~”

The three replied cheerfully.

I took the bag of cotton out of the bear box.

“This is the cotton we’re putting in the stuffed Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan. It’s soft.” (Noa)

Noa enjoyed the feel of the cotton. Mimicking them, Fina and Shuri were also happily touching the cotton.

“Come on, let’s get started.” (Yuna)

Me and Noa, then Fina and Shuri, split up like so and decided to put cotton in the Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plushies.

The seam on the back was slightly open as a place to put the cotton. After putting the cotton, sew it up at the end to complete it.

“Then I’ll start putting them in the feet first.” (Noa)

Noa took the cotton, inserted her hand into the back of the stuffed Swaying Bear, and put the cotton in. I helped her with that.

The legs, the arms, the little tail, and the big head got swollen with stuffed cotton.

“Finally, I was able to stuff cotton in its head.” (Noa)

Noa looked happy as she wiped the sweat from her forehead. It was quite hard work, partly because the stuffed animals were large. She inserted her hands many times to shape it. Unlike the smaller stuffed animals, her movements were much larger.

It would be easier if there were zippers, etc., but there were no such things, so the holes for cotton must be minimal.

It was surprisingly difficult because the cotton had to be inserted through those tiny holes.

I prepared a handkerchief and cold water.

“Here, a handkerchief and water.” (Yuna)

“Thank you.” (Noa)

Noa wiped the sweat from her forehead and drank a glass of cold water.

“Fina, Shuri, you should rest when you get tired.” (Yuna)

I made sure to prepare enough for everyone.

“Yes.”

“Un~”

I also drank some cold water, took a break, and resumed helping Noa.

“Now all that’s left is to put it in its body.” (Yuna)

The last step was to put cotton in the body. The part where the most cotton would be used.

Honestly, I wonder how many usual-sized Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plushies with this amount of cotton we were about to use.

I’m guessing more than 10? No, definitely more than that.

Noa inserted a large amount of cotton into the stuffed Swaying Bear.

Looking at Fina and Shuri, they were also working hard inserting cotton into the Hugging Bear plushie.

And gradually, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plushies swelled.

“Is this enough?” (Noa)

“Looks good to me.” (Yuna)

All that’s left was to sew the open back, and we’re done.

Noa held the stuffed animal down and I sewed it up, neatly and discreetly.

If it had a zipper, I would have just closed it. But it doesn’t have one, so there’s nothing I can do about it.

Then, I finished sewing the last part and cut the thread.

“And done!” (Yuna)

“We made it!” (Noa)

A life-sized Swaying Bear plushie was completed.

“Thank you, Yuna-san. I will cherish it.” (Noa)

Noa hugged the life-sized Swaying Bear plushie.

“No, no, not yet. This is a birthday present, so I’ll keep it until that day comes.” (Yuna)

After saying that, I pulled Noa away from the life-sized Swaying Bear plushie and put it in the bear box.

“Ah, I haven’t even had a chance to enjoy it yet. Yuna-san, you’re so terrible.” (Noa)

Call me terrible, all you want, but this is a birthday present. I can’t give it to you now.

“I’ll hold on to it until your birthday party.” (Yuna)

“No way~” (Noa)

Noa’s shoulders slumped in disappointment, but it couldn’t be helped. The life-sized Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plushies were Noa’s birthday present.

As we were having that conversation, Fina and Shuri completed the life-sized Hugging Bear plushie they were making.

“We’re done with this one, too.” (Fina)

“Soft~” (Shuri)

Shuri hugged the life-sized Hugging Bear plushie.

“Shuri. It’s Noa-sama’s birthday present, so that’s not good.” (Fina)

“Un~”

When Shuri got warned, she obediently let go of the life-sized Hugging Bear plushie.

“Well then, I guess I’ll put this one away, too.” (Yuna)

Noa looked disappointed when I put it away in the bear box.

No can do. You’ll have to wait until your birthday to enjoy them.
