[Please…] Girl
[You better ask a higher-ranked adventurer.] Another Guy
The girl goes to a different adventurer.
But they all turned her down as well.
I was worried about the girl, so I went to the woman at the reception who was anxiously looking at the girl.
[What happened to that girl?] Yuna
[！？] Receptionist
When I called out to her, she was bewildered to see me.
The receptionist didn’t seem to realize that I entered the guild as well.
[Um, what is it, young lady dressed up as a bear? Did you come to make a request?] Receptionist
Because of my height and wearing a Bear Costume, I’ve been seen below my age.
But I was treated as a child for the first time in a long time.
[I’m an adventurer, that’s what.] Yuna
[Adventurer?] Receptionist
The woman at the reception desk opens her eyes wide and looks at me.
Yeah, apparently it seems unbelievable.
[So what happened to that girl? I think normally she should ask the Adventurer’s Guild for a request.] Yuna
I ignored the dazed face of Receptionist-san and asked about the girl.
The girl has been asking each adventurer for a while now.
[We received the request and posted it. But nobody wants to take the request, so she’s asking each and every one of them.] Receptionist
[Is the commission fee too cheap?] Yuna
If a child asks, then the commission fee may be small.
But the girl is dressed in a fancy dress.
[No, it’s not about the money. The request is too difficult, so no one wants to take it.] Receptionist
[Please…] Girl
While I am listening, the girl asked as hard as she could, but none of them is willing to lend a hand.
The other adventurers even turned their eyes away.
[Was it really that difficult?] Yuna
[Taking her to the bottom of the Desert Pyramid… While it is a fairly dangerous place… And if you’re escorting a little girl, the risk enormously increases, so no one is competent enough to take it.] Receptionist
Was the Desert Pyramid the same pyramid I saw before entering the city?
Is the bottom layer underground?
I thought pyramids was supposed to be ascending.
[But why in that place?] Yuna
The woman at the reception desk shakes her head.
[Except for the request to accompany her to the bottom layer, I haven’t heard her reason for going there.] Receptionist
The girl is looking down, clenching her little hand, biting her lips and trying to hold her tears.
But the girl lifts her face with teary eyes.
When she lift her face our eyes met.
[Bear-san?] Girl
The girl stares at me.
I’m a girl, so I call out to her.
[Hey there, what’s wrong?] Yuna
[No, its not like I can ask this to a talking Bear-san.] Girl
The girl refused clearly, bowed down and went for another adventurer.
[Sorry about that… She’s not a bad child.] Receptionist
I understand that.
It was not an eye that’s making a fool out of me.
I guess she couldn’t really do something like asking a weird looking girl like me.
[Do you know that child?] Yuna
[It’s Karina-sama, the daughter of the lord of this city.] Receptionist
