Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear-Chapter 571
Bear-san, Gives Fina’s Present, Elven Village Edition Part 2
“I appreciate it, Missy. Ruimin was also looking forward to meeting Miss Sakura.” (Mumroot)
As Mumroot-san was returning to the room, he thanked us for taking Ruimin with us.
“If you’re happy, then that’s good enough.”
I am the one who made the connection between Sakura and Ruimin, who are far away. I’d feel if I didn’t let them see each other once in a while.
Besides, Ruimin has never asked me to take her to the Land of Harmony, perhaps because she thought it would be a nuisance for me.
So this time I’m going to take her with me.
Then I apologize to Fina for deciding to talk without her permission.
“Fina, I’m sorry for deciding on my own.” (Yuna)
“No, it’s fun to go with everyone. Honestly, it would have been nice if Noa-sama could have come with us.” (Fina)
I haven’t told Noa about the bear gate, so I can’t bring her with us.
And even if she knew, I might not have taken her this time anyway. She went to see the magic exchange, practiced magic, and she was neglecting other things. I don’t think Cliff would have given her permission to go somewhere for an extended period of time.
But I would like to bring her with us someday.
“I agree. When I can reveal it to Noa, I’ll ask her to come with us.” (Yuna)
“Yes.” (Fina)
“What? Is there someone who is not tight-lipped? In that case, do you want to use contract magic?” (Mumroot)
I politely declined Mumroot-san’s proposal. I think Noa will keep her promise. But the timing to tell her was difficult to find. I could have told her as a birthday present, but I missed it. Well, the chance to tell her will come in time.
Then Ruimin, who had received permission from his parents, returned to explore the village.
As we walked through the village, the children gathered.
Apparently, Ruimin’s younger brother, Lucca, told them that we were coming.
“I’m sorry. Earlier, when I came home, I was told that Yuna-san was here.” (Lucca)
Well, it’s within the margin of error, because as we walked through the village, anyone would easily notice my dress.
And then there are the girls I met when coming to Mumroot-san’s house. It’s not Lucca’s fault.
I introduced Fina and Shuri to the children.
“Would it be okay if they could play with you?” (Yuna)
The children nodded and invited Fina and Shuri to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables.
Apparently, there were children who went to get them.
Fina and Shuri also wanted to go, so I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear and everyone went to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables.
Everyone hugged Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear. Fina, Shuri, and the village children seemed to enjoy themselves.
Ruimin was like a big sister and took care of the children.
“Take turns. If you’re too rowdy, I’ll have Yuna-san take them away.” (Ruimin)
With this one word, the children behaved and it went calmly.
They took turns riding Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, the group went into the forest to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables.
Fina and Shuri went with the village children.
It’s a secret, but Fina shouted because there were poisonous mushrooms among them.
And today’s dinner was served with mushrooms and wild vegetables they had picked.
The food was prepared by Bena-san and Ruimin’s mother, Thalia-san. The two of them taught Fina how to cook.
She would make a good wife.
I would love for her to come to my house.
When it’s dinnertime, Lucca and Ruimin’s father, Artur-san, also came to Mumroot-san’s house to eat with us
Then, that night, there was talk of going back to Crimonia by the bear gate, but Mumroot-san asked us to stay the night.
I couldn’t refuse his kindness, besides, we were going to go to the capital together tomorrow, so I decided to accept his kindness and stay at Mumroot-san’s house.
“Did you have a good time today?” (Yuna)
I got under the covers, looked at the unusual ceiling, and asked Fina and Shuri, who were holding Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear cubs on either side.
“Yes, it was a lot of fun.” (Fina) 𝒇𝘳ℯe𝙬e𝘣𝙣𝘰ѵ𝒆𝗹. c૦𝑚
“Yeah, it was fun.” (Shuri)
“But I’m tired. Everyone here is amazing.” (Fina)
“For those children, the forest is their playground.” (Yuna)
I thought both Fina and Shuri were already physically strong, but the elven children were even tougher. Without my bear gear, I wouldn’t have lasted more than a few minutes.
“We’re going to the capital tomorrow, right?” (Fina)
“That’s the plan.” (Yuna)
“It’s strange. Even though the elf village and the royal capital are far away, I can’t believe we can go there in an instant. Yuna-oneechan is really amazing.” (Shuri)
I am not the great one, but the God who gave me the skills. Without the bear equipment, I would not be able to use magic, skills, or handle weapons because they’re too heavy, and I would be inferior to the physical strength of a child.
So I’m not great.
While I was thinking about how to answer, I heard soft breathing from both sides. It seemed that Fina and Shuri were both tired and had fallen asleep.
“Both of them are resting. Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear go take a rest too.” (Yuna)
“”Kuu~n“”
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear cried softly so as not to wake them up.
I was tired too, so I decided to go to sleep.
The next morning, I thought for a moment “Huh?” when I noticed that the ceiling was different, but then I looked to my left and right and immediately remembered. On either side of me were Fina and Shuri, who were sleeping comfortably with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear in their arms. Fina, who always wakes up early, was sleeping soundly, which means she must have been tired from playing yesterday. Thanks to the polar bear suit, I feel refreshed.
I’d like to let them sleep a little longer, but we have plans to go out again today, so I decided to wake them up.
“It’s morning, you two. Wake up.” (Yuna)
I lightly shake their bodies.
“Oneechan, a little more” (Shuri)
Shuri hugged Swaying Bear.
“Is it morning already? Good morning, Yuna-oneesan.” (Fina)
Fina immediately got up. Then she looked at Shuri.
She’s still sleepy.
Fina got up and sat down next to Shuri and shook Shuri’s body hard.
“Shuri, hurry up and get up, or you’ll miss breakfast.” (Fina)
“U~u, that’s not good.” (Shuri)
“Then wake up.” (Fina)
Shuri gets up with a whimper.
As expected of sisters. They’re used to waking the other one up.
“Good morning, Oneechan…… Where are we?” (Shuri)
She asked while looking around.
Are you still half asleep?
“It’s Ruimin’s grandfather’s house. Did you forget?” (Fina)
“Oh, that’s right. We came to play.” (Shuri)
She seemed to have remembered.
Well, I can’t blame her. For a moment, I also thought, “Where am I?”
We got dressed, left the room, and headed for the usual room. Mumroot-san was already there.
“Good morning, Mumroot-san.” (Yuna)
“Good morning.” (Fina)
“Morning.” (Shuri)
We each greeted Mumroot-san.
“Did you sleep well?” (Mumroot)
“We slept soundly.” (Yuna)
When I was greeting Mumroot-san, Bena-san brought us breakfast. Fina saw it and offered her help, and she helped carry the dishes. Shuri imitated that and helped carry them as well.
“Mumroot-san, is it safe for you to leave the village for a while?” (Yuna)
I asked in a whisper while looking at his wife.
“It’s alright. She knows that me and Ruimin used contract magic. So she understands that I can’t talk about it. I feel bad for my wife, but it is what it is.” (Mumroot)
“……”
I feel like I’m doing something wrong. At that time, we had just met for the first time, and Mumroot-san had approached me about contract magic, so I just went with the flow and used that contract magic.
“Do you want to break the contract magic? You can do that, right?” (Yuna)
“I can dispel it, but there’s no problem with it as is. I made a promise not to tell anyone. Then it’s the same whether we have a contract or not. It’s the same with my wife, that’s what I promised her. Besides, Bena knows that, so she won’t ask me anything.” (Mumroot)
That’s cool.
“But if it becomes too hard for you to keep quiet from Bena-san, just let me know. I know that Mumroot-san and Bena-san are not the kinds of people to talk about it to others.” (Yuna)
“Well, I guess I’ll ask you then.” (Mumroot)
Then, as we were finishing breakfast, Ruimin arrived.
With everyone present, we went to the place where the bear gate was located.
When we got out to the village, Mumroot-san and Ruimin rode on Swaying Bear. Finna, Shuri, and I hopped on Hugging Bear. Fina was in front, me in the middle, then Shuri was at the rear hugging me.
Just barely made it.
Mumroot-san looked kind of happy the first time he rode Swaying Bear. Perhaps he really wanted to ride on him?
“Fufu, I’ve been looking forward to it.” (Ruimin)
“Don’t get lost like you did when you first came to the capital.” (Yuna)
“Ugh, that time……” (Ruimin)
Ruimin’s expression, which was happy, became depressed.
I guess I teased her a little too much.
“I’m just kidding. It’s a big city so it can’t be helped. Besides, it was your first time there, anyone would get lost.” (Yuna)
Like anywhere, you’d never know where to go for the first time. If you go to an unknown place with no smartphone or map, it’s inevitable that you will get lost in that situation.
I don’t know everything about the capital either. I have been lost at times. But basically, the castle was visible, so if I aim for the castle, at least I can get back home.
Well, I have a bear map, so if I’ve been to a place once, I won’t get lost.
“Were you lost too, Yuna-san?” (Ruimin)
“In my case, I had someone to show me the way, so I was fine, but I think I would have gotten lost on my own.” (Yuna)
I comforted Ruimin.
Then we came to the place where the bear gate was placed.
“Missy. Can we go anywhere through that door?” (Mumroot)
Mumroot-san asked while looking at the bear gate.
“Just to the places where I put the other gate. So I have to go there at least once.” (Yuna)
Even in the game, I could only go to and from places I had been to once, which I think is normal.
If we could freely go to places we have never been, it would not be a game and that would be boring.
Above all, it’s enough that the places you can go to are those you have been to on your own.
“Now then, I will open the door to the royal capital.” (Yuna)
I opened the door of the bear gate connected to the royal capital.
