c246: – Bear-san Learns About the School Festival

Everybody was wearing their …uniform Had they just come back from ?school

「Yuna-san, why are you here in the ?capital Did you come because of ?work」

「Not really. What about you ?guys What are you up to?」

Had they come here to do homework or ?something

I had always kept to myself, so I had never participated in a study session .before

Well, I hadn’t needed to study to begin with, so I wasn’t making .excuses It was just that I had always been able to do everything by myself without a problem and hadn’t needed any .help

「We came to discuss our school festival .project」

「School festival ?project」

It seemed they weren’t here just to hold a study session, after .all

「.Yes The students of the academy have to prepare a program for the school .festival We’ll all be participating, but we can’t seem to decide on what to .do..」

Shia .explained

It looked like even the schools in this world held events like school .festivals

By the time I had entered junior high school, I had already become a shut-in, so my only knowledge of school festivals was limited to what I had seen on TV or read in .manga

Maybe the festivals were similar in both ?worlds I grew a bit curious at the prospect of joining one .here

「A school festival sounds .interesting」

「If you like, you can come and see .us」

「?Really」

「In general, only those who live in the capital can come, but we are also allowed to invite acquaintances from elsewhere, so there’s no .problem」

Well, I did want to take a look, but would it be a good idea to go to a crowded place with my Bear ?Suit

Wouldn’t people mistake me for a mascot, ?then Or, at least look at me ?weird

「Anyways, did you guys at least come up with an idea for what you want you want to ?do」

Eleanora-san, who had been listening this whole time, chimed .in

「Yes, but our ideas are all over the place, so we can’t pick .one..」

Shia said, taking a glance at her schoolmates behind her

「Anyway, we ended up deciding to discuss it further .here」

「At least you should have a lot of ideas, .then What are ?they」

Eleanora-san asked and looked at everybody .expectantly

Marcus answered .first

「I suggested that we hold a sword .competition」

「A magic competition might be nice, .too」

Cattleya added her .idea

While sword and magic competitions sounded typical for a fantasy world, wasn’t that a bit dangerous for a school ?festival

「I want to make something we can .sell」

Timor added .in

「And you, ?Shia」

「I’m fine with doing a competition, but as we already spar during our regular lessons, I hoped we could do something that can only be done for the school .festival」

「That’s exactly why we should do a .competition It’ll stand out, and we don’t have to prepare .anything .Easy」

「True, but it will be almost the same as what we do in our .classes」

「Yes, but people outside of the school don’t get to see it, do ?they」

Did Marcus really want to show off that ?badly

If he wanted to stand out that much, I had a great piece of advice for him: just put on a Bear .Outfit

「How about we really open a stand and sell ?something」

「What would be sell, ?though」

「Food, ?maybe」

「Other classes are already doing food carts, .though」

「Yes, I’ve also overheard them bragging about how they have already gathered a lot of delicious ingredients to .use」

Marcus and Cattleya pointed out the problems with Timor’s .suggestion

「So, Marcus and Cattleya want to hold a competition, and Timor wants a .stall What about you, ?Shia What would you ?prefer」

After listening to the explanation of other three’s suggestion, Eleanora-san asked Shia .again

「If I had to pick between them, then the stall, I .guess」
