Where am I?
A white ceiling is visible, and the place is full of nurous patients.
That's right. This is a hospital.
"Patient Han Yuna."
"Yes, yes!"
"Your examination is finished, and we'll contact you on your phone when the results are out."
"Thank you!"
As I got up and left the waiting room, Rea unni was waiting in front of the door.
"Is the health checkup all done?"
"Yes! But was it really necessary?"
"Of course! You need to be healthy to play gas too!"
I joined the Frey Guild and ca early in the morning for a health checkup as part of the guild mber benefits.
Is it possible to get the four major insurances too...?
It's fortunate that I told Yong-yong I'd be sleeping in. Otherwise, I would have been scolded like last ti.
Because I couldn't eat anything since last evening due to the health checkup, I followed Rea unni to a porridge restaurant located in the hospital basent to satisfy my hunger.
After eating so porridge, I received a call that the test results were out, so I headed to the waiting room.
Sitting in the waiting room, a nurse called my na.
I followed the nurse into the examination room, and Rea unni ca in with .
Inside the examination room, the doctor was looking at the chart with a serious face.
"Patient, have you recently lost consciousness?"
"How did you know?"
Rea unni looked at with surprised eyes upon hearing my words.
Ah, I made a mistake.
"Your numbers are very bad. There's malnutrition too..."
"Malnutrition!?"
"For now, I'll give you an IV drip and prescribe so dicine. Make sure to take it consistently, and you must eat your als properly. If not, it could beco really serious."
"Yes, doctor."
While I was receiving the IV drip in the infusion room, following the nurse, Rea unni was looking at with fierce eyes beside .
"Why didn't you tell ?"
"Tell you what...?"
"I clearly told you to tell if there was anything difficult, didn't I!?"
I had no excuse.
She was looking at with tears in her eyes, and if I say anything here, I'd be trash...
When I apologized, Rea unni, who had been thinking for a while, looked at with a determined expression.
"I know why you're living in that house, so I won't ask you to move to the house next door. Instead, I'll move to the house next to yours."
Rea unni says she's moving to the house next door.
No, more importantly, isn't soone already living in the house next door?
She made a call sowhere, and by the ti I finished receiving the IV drip, a bell rang.
"Yes. Good job."
After finishing the call, she said the moving date was set. Already!?
"I agreed to buy it at twice the market price. Including moving expenses, that is."
"......"
Rea unni, showing that there's nothing money can't do.
She smiles and says if there's anything that can't be done, it's because the amount is insufficient, and it's scary.
After dropping off at my house by car, she said she'd see next week and left.
For a long ti, I stared at the empty space where Rea unni had left.
My heart feels full, but I don't know how to express it.
A world where I don't know anyone.
The colorless world is starting to be filled with color.

"Kyuung!"
"I told you I'd be sleeping in today, didn't I?"
"Kyuuung!"
"So you're being this lenient?"
While stroking the head of Yong-yong, who was eating a magic stone, I opened the window and looked out at the city scenery.
We arrived earlier than planned due to the bear taxi's reckless driving.
It's definitely gotten faster.
Thanks to that, I experienced hell...
Ugh. Just thinking about it makes want to throw up.
"Kyuung?"
"I'm okay."
While stroking the head of Yong-yong, who was worried about , I packed my things and checked out at the hotel lobby.
"Thank you for everything."
"Not at all! It was an honor to serve you all this ti!"
Leaving the City of Stars.
"Let's stop by the information guild one last ti before we go."
"Kyuung!"
"Oh, co on. That's not right. They helped us when we had no magic stones left."
"Kyuuung."
While coaxing Yong-yong, who had no interest in anything but , I headed to the information guild.
I entered the general store that serves as the hideout for the information guild, and when I spoke to an employee, they guided to the request room.
Inside the request room, Erica unni was drinking tea, and when she saw , she welcod with a bright smile.
"Our pretty one is here?"
"Hello!"
I sat in the chair opposite Erica unni, and she handed a cup of tea, which was sweet.
"Did you co to say goodbye?"
"Yes! It's ti for to leave now."
"Then, could you do one errand for on your way?"
She hands a letter along with a pouch.
[A quest has arrived.]
Deliver mail to the information guild located in the comrcial city of Thalassa.
Reward: Pouch of magic stones.
"I can't send our pretty one away empty-handed."
She says it's an errand, but she's doing this on purpose to take care of .
"Thank you."
"Huhuhu. If you're grateful, co visit again."
After saying goodbye, I left the general store and went outside the city.
Standing on the roadside a little away from the city, waiting for the bear taxi, I heard the sound of sothing running from afar.
But it sounds like more than one is running?
As sothing gets closer and closer, I see nurous Warbears running?
Led by a bear with an exceptionally large body, nurous Warbears appeared.
"Who are the Warbears next to you!?"
"Groooan!"
"They're your family!?"
The reason for taking magic stones all this ti.
He says he did it to feed his family and ca to say hello this ti.
They're all so big that it's scary being surrounded...
Curious Warbears approach closely to sniff, but the mont they make eye contact with Yong-yong.
"Groooeeng!"
They show a submissive posture, just like when I first t the bear.
As I look at the lying Warbears in bewildernt, the bear steps in to organize things.
"Groooan!"
All the Warbears retreat in an instant.
The bear approaches .
It bows its head and thanks .
"Why are you being so formal between us?"
"Grohoho!"
It laughs and tells to get on quickly, but it's gotten so big that it's difficult to climb on.
I manage to climb onto its back with effort, and as it slowly sets off, the other Warbears follow behind.
Now that I'm traveling with a group of Warbears, I finally feel like a summoner, don't I?
"Let's go!"
"Groooan!"

The movent of the Warbear group was incredible.
On the way to the comrcial city of Thalassa.
We encountered nurous monsters, but none of them dared to attack us.
No, they ran away as soon as they made eye contact.
Well, what crazy monster would dare to attack a group of large Warbears led by a giant bear over 10m tall?
How long have we been traveling together, crossing mountains and swimming across rivers?
Every ti we took a break, I took out magic stones from the pouch and distributed them one by one. If I hadn't received the pouch from Erica unni, it wouldn't have been enough.
After running for a long ti like that, we finally saw the comrcial city of Thalassa in the distance.
A huge spire was located in the center of the comrcial city, and nurous buildings could be seen around it.
After saying goodbye to the bear group, I approached the entrance to enter the comrcial city, and there were two entrances.
One entrance crowded with people and one completely empty.
As I was walking towards the empty entrance.
"Child. You can't go that way."
"Pardon?"
I turned my head towards the voice calling and saw an old lady looking at .
"That entrance is only for nobles to use."
"Nobles?"
"Yes. Commoners like us have to line up here."
Despite appearances, I'm a duke.
I have a title in the demon realm, but...
I wonder if it won't work...
Thinking it's better not to stand out unnecessarily, I lined up behind the old lady and chatted about various things. She gave a lot of useful information.
"Child. Just because it's a comrcial city doesn't an all the shops are cheap."
"Really? I thought it would be cheaper than other cities, but I guess not."
As we were talking, it was soon our turn. We passed through the checkpoint and entered, and I saw a city bustling with nurous people.
From rchants selling on the streets to carriages passing by carrying nurous loads.
I said goodbye to the old lady and opened the map to head towards the guild headquarters that Rea unni had told about.
On the way to the Frey Guild headquarters.
Just as I was about to enter an alley, I bumped into soone.
"What the! Hey, kid. Don't you watch where you're going!?"
"I'm sorry. I wasn't looking ahead."
Red hair and walking around shirtless... a pervert?
He glares at while checking my body, and his eyes are fierce.
"If you made a mistake, you could have gotten hurt! Are you injured anywhere!?"
"Huh? No, I'm not injured."
"Always be careful! Even if you keep your eyes open, you can get cut in this city!"
Grumbling while worrying about ... a pervert... no, a tsundere?
