Bear-san ets Carina
“Please co in.” (Rosa)
We entered the mansion and were shown to a guest room.
“I’ll go and get Carina.” (Rosa)
Rosa-san hurried out of the room.
“For now, let’s keep it a secret that Noa and Misa are nobles.” (Yuna)
“”Why?”” (Noa and Misa)
“If Carina’s father, Balm-san, finds out, the information might reach Ellelaura-san.” (Yuna)
Ellelaura-san was doing so secretive work in the royal capital that I didn’t know about. And Balm-san might ntion to Ellelaura-san that he t her daughter, Noa, in his town.
“I understand. Let’s just say that we’re friends with Fina and Shuri.” (Noa)
I wanted to tell them that they should wear clothes bought in this town, so the two of them didn’t look like noblewon. However, no matter what clothes they wore, it was impossible to hide the elegance that oozes from them.
“For now, let’s keep that information on hold.” (Yuna)
Well, we could tell Carina about it when the ti was right.
After we finished talking, I could hear footsteps at the door.
The door opened and a girl with brown skin ca into the room.
“Yuna-san!” (Carina)
“Long ti no see, Carina.” (Yuna)
Carina entered the room.
She was the daughter of the lord of this town, and the girl I helped.
“So you ca.” (Carina)
Carina ca running over happily.
“Welco, Fina and Shuri.” (Carina)
She seed happy to et Fina and Shuri.
Carina turned to look at Noa and Misa, who she was eting for the first ti.
“Noa and Misa. They are Fina’s friends.” (Yuna)
“I’m Noa.” (Noa)
“I’m Misa.” (Misa)
“I’m Carina. Noa and Misa, nice to et you.” (Carina)
After exchanging greetings, we sat down. Rosa-san brought tea.
“So, why are you here, Yuna-san?” (Carina)
“Well, I just ca here mostly to play.” (Yuna)
I was thinking about buying so spices to make curry powder.
I told them about my ti with the Camoles and our visit to the pyramids.
“Is the lake water okay since then?” (Yuna)
“Yes, the water magic stone that Yuna-san gave is working fine.” (Carina)
“That’s good to hear.” (Yuna)
The water magic stone from when the Kraken was defeated was used in that pyramid.
If it stopped working, the lake would again dry up and return to being a desert.
“Right now, I’m studying magic circles.” (Carina)
“Magic circles?” (Yuna)
“It was from a record left by my ancestor.” (Carina)
“Was that ancestor a magician?” (Yuna)
The story goes that this town was built by a swordsman and a magician.
Those two were Mumroot-san’s old adventurer companions.
“Yes. I have my younger brother, Norris to inherit the house, so I won’t need to find a partner to beco the lord soon.” (Carina)
It was a common story for a man to inherit the house when it ca to nobles.
“Don’t make that face. I feel bad for Norris, but I’m happy to be able to decide my future freely.” (Carina)
“Carina…” (Yuna)
“In the future, I want to go to the royal capital and study.” (Carina)
“I see.” (Yuna)
It was better to think positively about the future.
So people didn’t want to take over the family business.
“I’m also thinking about going to Lord Mumroot’s house one day.” (Carina)
“You’re still a child, but you’re thinking of great things.” (Yuna)
“I’m not a child anymore.” (Carina)
Carina puffed out her cheeks when she’s treated like a child.
“No, you are a child.” (Yuna)
When I thought back to when I was 10 years old, I didn’t have any thoughts about my future like Carina did.
At that ti, I was still attending school, but when I got ho, I just played gas in solitude.
But one needed money to play gas.
My parents didn’t give any money, so I have fond mories of buying gas with my grandfather’s pocket money.
Along the way, I started wanting more and more things, and my grandfather taught how to invest, and I started earning my own money.
When I beca a middle school student and started earning money, I stopped going to school and started living as a recluse.
Compared to my childhood, Carina’s childhood was just way better.
“Yuna-san, what’s wrong?” (Carina)
“Carina is too great, so I feel bad when I compare myself to when I was a child.” (Yuna)
“I’m not great at all. Yuna-san is great. She defeated the monsters and gave a valuable magic stone.” (Carina)
That had nothing to do with childhood.
“Um, Yuna-san, what did you do in this town? I heard you defeated monsters.” (Carina)
“I didn’t do anything special.” (Yuna)
“Yuna-san is the only one who thinks like that.” (Carina)
Carina smiled and started talking about what happened here before.
“A while ago, the lake was drying up at a rapid pace. To increase the amount of water, a large water magic stone was needed. At that ti, Yuna-san gave a precious water magic stone. Furthermore, I dropped the magic tool that had been passed down for generations in a place where a giant monster was. To get the magic tool back, Yuna-san faced the giant monster alone, defeated it, and got the magic tool back. Yuna-san is the benefactor of our family and this town.” (Carina)
“See, just like Carina said, I just handed over the magic stone I had and defeated the monster, so it wasn’t a big deal.” (Yuna)
I looked at Fina and the others as if asking for their agreent.
“Yuna-san, that’s what people generally call outstanding.” (Noa)
“Yes, even if it’s nothing to you, it’s remarkable.” (Misa)
“Yuna-oneesan, I’ve told you many tis to have common sense.” (Fina)
“Mom told , Yuna-oneechan’s strength is beyond reach, so don’t try to imitate her.” (Shuri)
Tirumina-san, that’s terrible.
No, I knew. I was stronger than normal people thanks to my Bear Gear that God had given .
I just wanted to say that I simply helped a crying child, and that was not a big deal.
“Noa and the others would also help soone in trouble, right? That’s all I did.” (Yuna)
Of course, I didn’t think everyone would lend a hand.
But I think the kids here would help soone in trouble, just like I did.
That feeling had not changed.
Then, as I was drinking the tea Rosa-san had made for , the door opened and a woman ca in.
“Mother!” (Carina)
“Oh, Yuna-chan really ca.” (Listil)
“Listil-san, it’s been a while.” (Yuna)
Carina’s mother, Listil-san, ca over.
“Thank you for coming. Carina was feeling lonely. I hope you’ll continue to co.” (Listil)
“Yes, I’ll co over from ti to ti.” (Yuna)
Even Balm-san ca over.
“Father, are you okay with work?” (Carina)
“Since Yuna-san is here, I took my ti to say hello. Yuna-san, please take your ti. If you haven’t decided where to stay, you can stay at my house.” (Balm)
“Yes. Please do stay.” (Carina)
“If I want to stay sowhere, I have a house.” (Yuna)
“But you haven’t used it for a long ti.” (Carina)
Fina and I cleaned it up before.
“Besides, isn’t it too small for everyone to stay?” (Carina)
It was certainly not big, but if it was just for five people, we should have more than enough room to sleep there.
But considering that Noa and Misa were the daughters of nobles, I think it would be better to stay at Carina’s house.
“In that case, I’ll be staying with you for just one day.” (Yuna)
Carina was happy to hear that.
“Now that I look closely, have I t this young lady sowhere before? She looks familiar…” (Balm)
Balm-san quizzically looked at Noa.
“No, no, it’s the first ti we’ve t.” (Noa)
“I see.” (Balm)
Balm-san, who was looking at Noa’s face, seed convinced of sothing, and left the room.
Since Noa told earlier that she had never t Balm-san before, I could only assu that Balm-san noticed her resemblance to Ellelaura-san.
While eating the sweets that Rosa-san brought, the girls got excited talking about .
“I cried when she said she was going to fight that big monster alone.” (Carina)
“I told you it would be okay.” (Yuna)
“But it’s not normal to think that you can fight such a big monster alone.” (Carina)
“Was it that big?” (Noa)
“Yes, it was huge.” (Carina)
“Speaking of big monsters, Yuna-san defeated the giant serpent to save a village as well.” (Noa)
That did happen. It was a fond mory.
Then, Carina’s younger brother Norris ca.
And then we also went to et the new family mber, the baby.
It was still small because it had just been born.
His na was Yusis.
I might be being self-conscious for thinking that soone nad him after because he had “Yu” in his na.
But in the past, there was also soone I helped who was nad “Yuk” after my “Yu”.
(T/N: This is strange, because this is information only available in LN. The author probably forgot and just added the reference.)
“He’s cute.” (Noa)
“These are Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear-chan stuffed toys.” (Misa)
Yusis had a Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear stuffed toys on his bed.
“He seems to like them, and he doesn’t cry when he has these Bear-san stuffed toys.” (Carina)
“Does that an he’ll cry if he doesn’t have them?” (Yuna)
“Yes, Yusis chewed one of them and drool got on it, so it was troubling when we tried to wash it.” (Carina)
Carina said with a laugh.
“So, from then on, we decided to wash the Bear-san stuffed toys when Yusis is sleeping.” (Carina)
I see. That way, the baby wouldn’t cry.
We soon left the room so as not to wake up the sleeping Yusis, and went to Carina’s room.
“Carina’s room also has Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear-chan stuffed toys.” (Noa)
Noa quickly spotted Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear stuffed toys displayed on the shelf.
“Yes, Yuna-san gave them to . They are my precious treasures.” (Carina)
Carina gently stroked the heads of the Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear stuffed toys.
You didn’t have to pass down treasures from generation to generation.
For dinner, we had curry, and after finishing, we went to the room where we would be staying.
I then summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear and relaxed.
“Ugh, it hurts.” (Shuri)
“I told you to stop, but you ate too much.” (Fina)
Fina also tried to stop her, but Shuri said it was okay and had a second helping.
“But it was delicious.” (Shuri)
“Yes.” (Fina)
“That’s good.” (Carina)
Carina’s face suddenly looked happy, then sad.
“You’re going back tomorrow, right?” (Carina)
“Yes.” (Yuna)
I was going to buy so spices to make curry and then head ho.
“Then I have to say goodbye to Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear-chan, too.” (Carina)
Carina hugged Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.
“I’ll co back again. I promise.” (Yuna)
My words brighten her up a little.
