VRMMO 70.1

Confusion in the Kingdom of Caenista

A shadow fell over the Kingdom of Caenista, the great land of Humans.

The Spirit's power throughout the country had been diminished, the forests withered, water sources dried up, and crop yields dropped to less than half of what they had been a few years earlier.

Fortunately, thanks to the presence of a girl who was the "Beloved Child of the Spirits," the withered lands visibly recovered when the girl went to visit, but t...

"...that little country of humans...was that Arceides?"

"Ah...that was the name...the Principality of Arceides...if that country still exists today, perhaps the descendants of that child..."

"Nym."

Celia stopped what she was saying and looked at me, possibly sensing something in my voice.

"Carol…?"

"Yes. My name is Carol Nym...Arceides, an [Abominable Child] born to the Arceides family."

When I released my transformation and took the form of little Carol,...

High Elf Village Part 2

"Well, we can't just stand here and talk, follow me. It's been a while since I've had a visitor. I'll offer you some tea."

The image I had of where we were going was a deep forest with large trees thousands of years old and several houses on top of them, deer and rabbits grazing freely without fear of people, an...

Bear-san, Seeing Misa For The First Time After A Long While

After capturing Reedent, we returned to the city of Sheleen.

Once we got back to Sheleen, the guildmaster ordered Maran to investigate Reedent's store. He then talked to Mylene-san about the future, and the conversation took place in the Guildmaster's room.

Blitz and his harem had been watching the store since midnight, so when they returned, they went to the inn with sleepy expressions.

Victor and Leon appeared to be stuck for ideas.

I stretch my body upward. I felt tired as a result of having climbed all the way up here.

Maybe it was because I had been so focused.... But it was time for the real work to begin.

"Tired?"

"No way."

I showed my stubborn attitude. I couldn't let Victor take advantage of me at a place like this.

I mean, neither Victor nor Leon were normal people. They hardly looked tired during this trip.

After They Left

Prince Edward's POV

"He doesn't mince his words, does he, Your Highness."

Arthur and I saw the three siblings off until they got on the carriage parked at the academy's back gate. After returning to the Royal Castle, Arthur spoke to me with an awkward face.

"...mmhm."

I remembered what Joshua said when I wanted to follow them to the Stuart mansion as I was also worried about the pale and trembling Emma.

Once Those Wings Fly, You Can't Ever Stop Them [Part 2]

Emma had been talked about as the fake holy maiden these days, but the students started to wonder why she was called a fake.

"The Church... only said that Lady Joanna is the Holy Maiden, right?"

"The Church had only announced Lady Joanna as the Holy Maiden."

Emma's deeds so far floated in their mind.

She hadn't done anything that deserved everyone's criticism.

We just kept on climbing. We had almost reached the top.

I wondered if Victor, who wasn't exhausted despite such a tough climb, was really a human. I felt like I had discovered a new creature called "Victor".

"Can you handle this?"

I asked Leon, who was following behind me. He flashed me a slightly more relaxed smile.

"I've been in more danger than this....

We carefully put our feet on the rocks and climbed upward. The situation did not allow us to relax. It was a matter of how long we could keep our concentration and stamina.

Leon was right behind me as I followed the prince.

We gripped the rocks firmly so as not to slip due to sweaty hands. Our hands begin to perspire more as we become more and more anxious.

...I should calm my mind as much as possible.

"Go all at once here."

Victor said, and with a quick movement...

Bear-san, apprehends Reedent

After the discussion was over and we were about to leave, the guildmaster turned his attention to me.

"Excuse me, but the girl dressed as a bear over there, Yuna-san, right?"

"You know me?" (Yuna)

I was a little surprised when somebody called my name.

"I’ve heard about you from the lord, Leonardo-sama, and his father, Gran-sama. You are the girl dressed as a bear who rode alone to the Salvado estate, rescued the dau...

Bear-san, Goes To Sheleen's Commercial Guild

Let's rewind the time a little bit here…

We arrived at the city of Sheleen before the sun set.

"You're amazing, Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan."

This is what happens when Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear get serious. But today, I made them run back and forth between the mountains and Crimonia and then to Sheleen. They look fine, though, but I'll have to give them a treat when things settle down.

"Oh, and this magic will be broken in a few minutes."

At my words, both Leon and Victor froze. We both let out an "eh".

"Could you not have told me that sooner!"

The prince urged his horse to run as he yelled at me angrily. We went after him. Rai also possessed a lot of endurance for a lion.

Well, I guess that was partly because we weren't moving that fast when we entered this forest....

The bear was a little perplexed that we left it behind, but we didn't have t...

Once Those Wings Fly, You Can't Ever Stop Them [Part 1]

Around the time the Stuart family was deepening their warm and fuzzy familial love, a little commotion occurred at the academy.

"Emma-sama passed out?!"

Not unexpectedly, only one person could cause a commotion like this.

"Uh, several students saw the merchant's son carrying Emma-sama in his arms."

"Um, say..."

I'm scared.

"Meow?" (Mhmm, what is it?)

"Maybe Koumei-san..."

I'm scared of asking.

"Meow?" (It's okay, just tell me?)

Koumei-san didn't miss even a noise as small as my murmurs and kept nodding to show that she was listening.

However, the gentler Koumei was, the more fearful I felt.

"You saw Minato?"

The family gathered in the mansion's west wing after they cleared all the people out of the building.

"Mina-nee's doppelganger was there!"

"Huh?"

"Hm?"

What came out of William's mouth when he tried to explain the happenings turned out to be a terribly dubious occult story.

Melsa and Leonard unconsciously leaked their disappointment upon hearing this somewhat anticlimactic account. View Post

It seemed more than just a rocky hill that had been dug out. The inside of the cave was filled with an unusual amount of magical power, and my MP, which was on the verge of depletion, was quickly recovering.

It didn't look like a proper pathway, and I didn't know how long it would take to reach the end, so I decided to leave everything else to Boris from this point on as I went inside.

Now... onward to the end before another round of break. At first, it was a rocky cave, but as I ...

The silence from everyone was a pain.

I was supposed to go to the village of the High Elves, that had been out of contact for many years, to ask them to lend me a magical tool they had lent the Daemons before. And it was a relic of the Demon Lord who died a hundred years ago.

However, the seal of the entrance and the elimination of the slime that had grown like a small mountain was too troublesome to deal with, so I went a...

Williams Family's Eldest Daughter, Alicia (Age: 16)

"This is a bear, right?"

Leon and Victor nodded next to me.

"It's definitely a bear."

"This is indeed a bear."

We remained frozen, glued to the bear in front of us, which was well over two meters in height.

Bears could be this big.... I had never seen a real one before.

It didn't appear even remotely as adorable as it did in the picture book. I had no idea it would be so fierce and dangerous.

"Only time will tell, I guess."

This was his real intention.

It was true that we may have done something to cause unrest among the people. But both Duke and I were prepared to take responsibility if people in the impoverished village misbehaved in any way.

And then there were Nate and Rebecca. They would never hurt an innocent person, and I was certain that they were stronger than anyone else in the village. The other reason was that they had been hurt by people even when th...

Leonard was blown off before Melsa could stop him.

Before anyone could react, Koumei had suddenly rammed her body into Leonard with an immense force.

After parting with Jade-san and the others, I repatriated Swaying Bear and rode down the mountain on Hugging Bear. Soon after, I was able to return to Lurina-san and Gil at the foot of the mountain. Lurina-san and Gil seemed to be with the man I had captured earlier, who was acting as a lookout.

There were several hundred people in the city who picked up the treasure and boasted about it to those who could not pick it up at bars and other places, causing them to be envied. They were sent to the mines to make up for the lost treasure.

That much is an issue, but it's not a major one. As long as the treasure was made up for, the 10% tax rate increase would end in a few years.

However, one person's action could cause a small issue to have a significant impact on the kingdom.<...

Escaped From Bear-san.

I ran in the lead, and Swaying Bear followed.

The hideout was hidden in a troublesome place. The footing was poor, and trees and grass were in the way, making it difficult to advance stealthily. That was why they hid in such a place. It would have been quite a hassle if it weren't for my detection skills.

I proceed in the direction the watchman pointed me, and immediately my detection skills respond to people.
