Bear-San, In Action
We discussed the date of the move.
“Then we will take action in two days.” (Guild Master)
We decided on that time after considering the approximate interval between each time town residents’ magic power was drained.
“For my part, tomorrow would be fine.” (Yuna)
“I have things to do, too, so I need a day to prepare.” (Guild Master)
“For my part, I will need to carefully examine the various guild requests to find one that will need to be carried out at a place that is neither too far away nor too close to ensure that the knight order will accept it.” (Clara)
If it was too far away, there was a possibility that the knights might not accept the request.
“Well, since that’s the case, you guys can rest and relax until the day of the event.” (Guild Master)
The Guild Master and Carla-san got up from their seats and exited the room.
“Well, we’ll take your words and rest, but what about Yuna and the others?” (Blitz)
“Well, we don’t want to be conspicuous, so I think we should head back to the inn.” (Yuna)
There was nothing we could do right now. Our plan will be in jeopardy if we get involved in any trouble.
Noa looked disappointed at my words.
“Walking around the town is a bad idea after all, isn’t it? I was eager to explore a bit of the town to study them.” (Noa)
Come to think of it, Cliff had always asked Noa to study the towns that she visited.
Perhaps she wanted to do that this time as well.
“Hey, Noire-chan, are you the daughter of some merchant family?” (Rosa)
“The way she speaks, the way she thinks. She is not a normal child.” (Ran)
Rosa-san and Ran inquired about Noa’s background.
“Of course, you don’t have to tell us if you don’t want to. I’m just a little curious.” (Ran)
Apparently, they were all aware that Noa was masquerading her identity.
Noa and I looked at each other, wondering what to do.
“As long as Yuna-san is okay with it, I don’t have a problem talking about it.” (Noa)
Rosa-san and the others know that we are not residents of this town. They also know that we came to this country with the help of fairies. Either way, they will know about Noa’s true identity once we return to Crimonia together. In the first place, it would be fine for Rosa-san and the others to know about Noa.
“Noa is the daughter of the Lord of Crimonia.” (Yuna)
Rosa-san and the others were surprised at my words.
“So Noire-chan is the daughter of a nobleman?” (Rosa)
“Yes, I am Noire Foschurose, daughter of Cliff Foschurose.” (Noa)
Noa introduced herself like a young lady.
“Am I going to be punished for disrespect?” (Rosa)
“I hope you will let me die in peace.” (Ran)
Rosa-san and Ran started to mutter strange things.
Grimos was the only one who didn’t speak, and her expression was indescribable.
“No, everyone else is not to blame. If you’re going to punish someone, make it just me.” (Blitz)
“Well, I’m not going to punish you all for disrespect. Besides, it’s my fault for not revealing my identity to your party.” (Noa)
“Well, thank you, Miss Noire…-sama” (Rosa)
Rosa-san thanked her awkwardly.
“And please just call me Noire as you have always done.” (Noa)
“But that’s…” (Rosa)
Rosa-san and the others looked at me as if asking for help.
“It’s fine. I call her Noa too, and I call Noa’s father Cliff.” (Yuna)
“””…”””
Blitz and the others looked at me in disbelief.
Well, it was not customary to address an aristocrat without mentioning their honorary title.
“Yuna-san can’t be helped, but if you are speaking to me in front of Father or someone else, you can just change the way you speak to me.” (Noa)
“I can’t be helped?” (Yuna)
“Well, because aside from me, I once heard from a merchant who was visiting Father that he was upset by the way you addressed Father. But Father told him not to worry about it and laughed it off.” (Noa)
“Well, then, when I go to the mansion, should I call you Noire-sama as well?” (Yuna)
“Please don’t. If you call me that, I will get angry.” (Yuna)
