Bear-san Being Guided

A few days had passed since I came back from my short trip with Noa and the others.

I was staying at home after all that 'going out'.

As I slept with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear as cushions, Fina, who was there to help with the dismantling of monsters I collected, scolded me, saying, "Yuna-san, you're so messy."

"Fina Mama is strict." (Yuna)

Well, Fina scolded me for many things, but I was happy that she cared about me. View Post

Prison of Terror [Part 1]

"What should we do?"

In the dim carriage with only a small skylight, the detained magicians looked anxiously toward Joanna.

Originally, Joanna and the magicians should have already finished bombarding the Royal Capital, completing their mission. The magicians' ships, which were anchored in Port of Simmons, were supposed to be able to leave port just like that and return to the Empire. They shouldn't have been exposed to danger as th...

Before Emma could stop Koumei, the cat already burst into the scattered ranks of the Imperial Army, which had started a mass panic.

Then...

Splat, splat, splat, splat splat splat splat splat splat splat splat splat...

Her barrage of cat splats began.

Koumei was completely upset.

"W-WHOAAA! What is this monster?! No, i-immoral... beast?!"

Splat.

Bear-san Brings back Misa

We'd returned to Crimonia.

What a quiet home.

But that thought only lasted a moment.

"Ah, you are back!" (Primme)

"Where have you been?" (Ronne)

Fairies with beautiful, shining wings flew around us.

"Primme, Ronne!? Why are you two here?" (Yuna)

"We have come to play." (Primme)

Primme started flying around me and Ronne around Noa.

"Primme-san, Ronne-san, you came to visit?" (Noa)

If humans were lacking in something, they would think about how to make up for it with something else.

If one couldn't get any more cards in their hand, and didn't have that many, they had to think carefully about how to use their cards and fight.

If you had nothing that seemed to be helpful, think of how you could deal with the situation under that premise.

A strong person was someone who could think of a way to overcome their problems.

If you could establish a fighti...

Riou and Yuki

--One day.

"Your ears are so cute." (Yuki)

"Ahh, uuh!" (Riou)

Riou had been fast asleep until just now, but she woke up, so I soothed her.

When I played with her ears, Riou laughed happily and flapped her arms and legs. She's an angel.

Riou had become quite capable of expressing her emotions.

She could recognize and play with toys by hitting, pinching, rolling, biting, etc., and we never got bored with watching her.

Bear-san Returns to Crimonia

After finishing my talk with Balm-san, Carina and I left the office.

"Thank you for teaching me, Yuna-san." (Carina)

"Sorry for not telling you about these things before." (Yuna)

"No, I can understand that there are matters that I am not supposed to know." (Carina)

Carina, who was a daughter of a noble in this world, was quick to understand the situation when I explained it to her.

She was very different from th...

Bear-san Uses Contract Magic

Yuna's PoV

While we were all resting in our rooms, Balm-san requested me to come to his office, saying he had something to discuss with me.

"Yuna-san, please have a seat." (Balm)

I sat down in the chair that he invited me to.

"Yuna-san, how did you get into the town?" (Balm)

An unexpected question.

"This town is in the middle of the desert, so not many people come and go. Only adventurers who live...

"Our lives have been saved by the Holy Maiden. We will not squander them away in vain!"

On the other hand, the knights who were determined to become shields continued to shout as they forced themselves to smile, imitating Emma's manner. No matter what, they wanted to protect the Holy Maiden who had saved them from that ear...

Bear-san Meets Carina

We entered the mansion and were shown to a guest room.

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)

Bear-san Goes to the Pyramid

"Just like Shuri said, it's full of sand." (Noa)

Noa and Misa, who had left the city, looked at the desert that spread out before them.

Noa crouched down and touched the sand.

"It's hot." (Noa)

Misa, Shuri, and Fina also touched the sand after hearing Noa's words.

"You'll get burned, so be careful." (Yuna)

I had also touched the sand before, and it was very hot.

Bear-san Reunites with the Adventurers

As I looked at the lake, I kept reminiscing about Carina. I could hear Fina and the others riding on the Camoles and making happy noises.

And I'm glad I brought them here.

"Yuna-saan!" (Noa)

As Noa waved her hand widely, I waved back at her.

The Camoles swam together in a line.

They were like siblings of wild ducks.

Misa was in the front, followed by Shuri, Fina, and Noa.

One Royal Guard shouted.

Lately, apart from managing the dungeon, Rir had been thinking about his daughter's education policy so that he wouldn't miss anything in that field.

And so, Rir's four subordinates went back to keeping watch over the area, while Rir and Setsu set off in search of their next prey. Yata, who had been on guard from the sky, let out a "caaaah!" cry, alerting Rir and the others.

After a little while, Rir also sensed the presence of the enemy that Yata had spotted.

As the sharp tip of the Horned Rabbit was pointed at her, Setsu flinched in fear for a moment, but there was no way for her to stop now.

So, she went ahead and charged forward.

"Kuu -- Gah!!" (Setsu)

It was caused by her inherent instincts possessing Fenrir's blood.

Before Setsu could think, her instincts seemed to react, and her body moved of its own accord.

Just before the attack, she took a step to feint, and before the Horned Rabbit could react, she bit into ...

Side Story: A Day with Rir

One day.

Rir and his subordinates, who were tasked with guarding the dungeon, had now left their territory in the Demon Forest and entered an area inhabited by hostile monsters.

However, their purpose was not to expand their territory.

It was to teach Rir's daughter, Setsu, how to hunt.

Setsu grew much faster than humans. She was originally the size of a small dog when she was born, but now she had grown to the same siz...

Rir could deal with butchering his prey, draining the blood, starting a fire, grilling meat, and even doing simple cooking. He was skillful with his claws and mouth, and could even add the right amount of seasoning.

We dealt with the more difficult parts of the process for him, however, and now we could play shogi, chess, and even the Game of Life with Rir.

Plus, he was super smart, so if I didn't play seriously, I might even lose.

In our house, it was common for owners to l...
