Bear-san, Explains To Mumroot-san
.
When I came out of the hole which was the entrance to the sacred tree, Ruimin came running up to me, looking happy. If she had a tail like Kagali-san, hers would be wagging like an excited puppy.
“Yuna-san, do you have time to eat today? I caught a big fish.” (Ruimin)
She was so happy to have caught a big fish, she had a big smile on her face.
“Umu, I think it’s a little impossible today. Sorry.” (Yuna)
I want to have a meal together with her. But since Sakura and the others already knew about the bear gate, and considering the situation in the Land of Harmony, I need to weigh my priorities.
“I see. That’s too bad.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin’s expression darkens a little. If she had beast ears, they would have drooped.
I saw Kagali-san’s ears and tail not too long ago, so I can’t help but think about that.
“Give me a call sometime and I’ll come by for a treat. Let me know if you catch anything.” (Yuna)
“Really? That’s a promise then.” (Ruimin)
Oh, her ears and tail perked up. (In my image)
After making a promise to Ruimin, I called out to Mumroot-san.
“Thank you for coming, Mumroot-san.” (Yuna)
“No, we’re in your debt, please don’t worry about it. So, contract magic is it? Is there someone you need to tell your secrets to, Missy?” (Mumroot)
“Yes, that’s right. Also, there’s someone who wants to meet you, Mumroot-san.” (Yuna)
“To meet me?” (Mumroot)
“Mumroot-san. Have you ever been to the Land of Harmony to help seal a demon called the Giant Serpent Orochi in the past? And do you know a fox woman named Kagali?” (Yuna)
“The Land of Harmony…… Orochi…… Seal …… Kagali…… Fox woman……” (Mumroot)
Mumroot-san pondered my words. It was hundreds of years ago, after all, so he can’t seem to remember it easily. But gradually, his memory seems to be coming back, and his expression changes.
“Ah Orochi, now that brings back memories. There was such a thing.” (Mumroot)
Mumroot-san made a nostalgic voice.
I guess it was him after all.
“But how did you know about it, Missy?” (Mumroot)
“Well, I just came from the Land of Harmony, got information that Orochi was about to return, and got asked to defeat it? Reseal it? Then a fox woman named Kagali-san told me that an elf named Mumroot-san, who was an adventurer at the time, helped her seal the serpent, and I thought that Mumroot-san might be the same Mumroot-san I know of, so I contacted Ruimin.” (Yuna)
I briefly told him the situation in the Land of Harmony.
“I see.” (Mumroot)
“Grandpa, you did that?” (Ruimin)
“That was when I was young. But still, the seal of Orochi will be released, you say? Kagali has protected the seal all this time, hasn’t she?” (Mumroot)
“So, I’d like you to come with me to the Land of Harmony, Mumroot-san.” (Yuna)
“How far away is the Land of Harmony?” (Ruimin)
Ruimin asked.
I wonder about that? I don’t know the distance. While I was at a loss for an answer, Mumroot-san answered for me.
“It’s far. Even back then, I just happened to stop by during my journey.” (Mumroot)
“You’ve been to such a faraway place, Yuna-san. I’d like to go there too.” (Ruimin)
I happened to see land from Targui, so I stopped by and it just so happened to be the Land of Harmony.
“But how did you get involved in all that, Missy?” (Mumroot)
“I had only dropped by the Land of Harmony for a while. Then my abilities were tested, a girl called me as the light of hope, and then, I ended up meeting a woman named Kagali-san.” (Yuna)
And now, we’re in the current situation.
Now that I think about it, I, the light of hope that Sakura saw, may have been a light of hope to bring Mumroot-san to them.
Perhaps I’m the only one who can bring Mumroot to them.
“I understand what you’re saying, but I don’t think it’s easy to just ‘drop by’ there.” (Mumroot)
It’s a combo of Targui and bear gate.
“Yea, I set up a bear gate on a moving island, and it passed by the Land of Harmony, so that’s how I just dropped by.” (Yuna)
“Yuna-san, is the island really moving?” (Ruimin)
Ruimin seemed to be interested in the moving island.
“There’s an island in the ocean that moves.” (Yuna)
“I see. The ocean, I’d like to see it.” (Ruimin)
I wondered if Ruimin had never seen the ocean before, so she was convinced by my words.
