c307: Bear-san Becomes A Handsome Hero’s Proxy.

I received the request to find the crystal plate map.

Well, the appointed time to go to the sea is still far off, so it’s okay if I am late for a few days. But, should I check with Fina at least?

[Then Yuna-san. I would like to gather some adventurers. Is it okay with you?] Balima

I’ll be fine if its just for a few days. I don’t want to waste time because I plan to go out to the sea.

[If it’s too late, I’ll go alone.] Yuna

[Please give me 2-3 days. I will have them recruited by then.] Balima

2-3 days, I wonder if you can do it.

I guess I should explore the city while I wait.

[I’ll come back two days later then.] Yuna

[Yuna-san, are you going somewhere?] Balima

[I’m going to secure an inn to stay in today and explore the city tomorrow.] Yuna

After all, as a former gamer, town exploration is a must whenever you come to a new city. Well, I always went straight to weapon shops and item shops back in the game, but in this case I’ll be looking for ingredients.

Or maybe go scout the pyramids.

[Yuna-san, if you would like it, please stay at my house while staying in this city. Also I haven’t thanked you for delivering the magic stone from the royal capital. Please feel at home during your stay.] Balima

[Is that okay?] Yuna

[Of course. Karina, tell Rasa to prepare the guest room.] Balima

[I… I understand.] Karina

Karina replies and leaves the room.

[And please bring this water magic stone with you Yuna-san.] Balima

The Kraken’s magic stone on the table was presented to me.

[With me?] Yuna

[Yes, neither me nor Ristil can move, so I guess you’ll have to accompany Karina, if you find the crystal plate map Yuna-san can replace the water magic stones.] Balima

Ristil-san has a baby on her stomach, and Balima-san is injured. Also, reports said that monsters are gathering in the pyramid.

I can’t just let them go to that place.

I agreed and shoved the Kraken’s magic stone into the Bear Box. It feels weird to put it back in after taking it out earlier.

[Yuna-chan, please give my daughter my best regards. She sometimes runs away from home, but she’s not bad child.] Ristil

Ristil-san left Karina in my hands.

I know that Karina is not a bad girl. However, I think the responsibility here is too heavy.

Somehow, I might carry her on my back, similar to Fina when I met her.

[I’ll be borrowing Karina, but I’ll return her without any injuries.] Yuna

(TN: kinda scary if it came from a certain P.Bear-san.)

[Fufu, thank you. Well then I’ll head back to the room now.] Ristil

When Ristil-san left the room, Karina returned as if they’re switching.

[Yuna-san I will guide you to your room.] Karina

[Then, Balima-san. I’ll be on your care for the time being.] Yuna

[You came from somewhere far away, so I’m sure you’re tired. Please have a good rest.] Balima

When I start to walk, the Bears followed… I didn’t forget them, but I’m not going to leave it like this, you know?

I will return Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear now.

[The Bears just disappeared.] Karina

Karina opens her eyes wide in surprise.

Well, it’s a summon beast, so if you unsummon it will disappear.

[Yuna-san, where are the Bears?] Karina

[They’re in this?] Yuna

I shake the Bear Puppets like I’m waving my hands.

Karina looks curious and touched the Bear Puppets.

[Those Big Bears….] Karina

Well, I’ve been wondering about it myself. It is a mystery of where the Bears are before they get summoned.

When I left the room, or rather dragged out of the room as if being pulled by Karina.

I was guided(taken) by Karina to the room where I’ll be staying for the next few days.

[Yuna-san, please use this room.] Karina
