Well, I just wish I could take out the Bear Bus without causing a commotion. I checked the surroundings. There are only two sleepy guards at the guardhouse watching us.
But then, if we gather so early in the morning, they’ll be curious.
Noa will definitely make a noise if I take out the Bear Bus here. Then it will cause a commotion this early in the morning.
While I was thinking about what to do, I could hear someone speaking from behind me.
[Ah, Yuna-oneechan. White!] Shuri
[You’re right.] Fina
There are the figures of Shuri and Fina running towards me. When I turned around, Shuri hugged me.
[Shuri, Fina, good morning.] Yuna
[Good morning.] Fina
[Why is Yuna-oneechan white?] Shuri
[I feel like becoming Hugging Bear today.] Yuna
When I said so, Hugging Bear at my feet cried happily. Well, he may be happy because whenever I go out, I’m always a black bear.
[Swaying Bear-chan, Hugging Bear chan. Good morning.] Shuri
Shuri crouches down and greets Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear. Shuri has been fine since morning. I thought she will be sleepy as well. But from behind Fina and the others, it looks like Tirumina-san and Gentz-san are the ones that are sleepy.
[Tirmina-san and Gentz-san you look sleepy.] Yuna
[Normally you’d expect that they’ll be sleepy since it’s still early. But these girls are strangely energetic today.] Tirumina
Gentz-san nodded to Tirumina-san’s words while yawning. And when I look at him, it looks like he’s about to say something, but held back instead.
I appreciate the response of an adult.
After Fina and Shuri hugged Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, they went to Noa and Misa.
[Everyone’s not here yet.] Yuna
The only ones left are Morin-san, Karin-san, the children and the people working at the orphanage, the girls from Mereera, and lastly Lurina-san and Gil.
[Tirumina-san, can I ask you to wait for them here? When everyone comes, please move outside the city. I will have the carriage outside ready.] Yuna
[I’ve heard it from my daughters. It seems that you made something strange again.] Tirumina
It seems that my reputation got worse. But I only made a Bear Bus.
After asking Tirumina-san to wait, I put my guild card over the crystal plate.
[Are you going out with the kids so early in the morning? Well, I think it’s okay if it’s Bear-jo-chan, but still, be careful out there.] Gatekeeper
I said my greetings to the worried gatekeeper, left Tirumina-san and Genz-san to wait for the others, and took the rest outside of the town.
It’s dark outside. But the sun is finally rising.
[Does Fina and Shuri knows about the carriage that Yuna-san prepared?] Noa
[Yeah, I know about it. It’s a big bear.] Shuri
[Bear-san? Not a carriage?] Noa
[Well, you’ll know when you see it.] Yuna
I took out the Bear Bus after walking a little further from the gate.
[Wha, wha… What? What is this?!] Noa
[It’s Bear-san] Misa
Noa and Misa were both surprised.
[Are, Yuna-oneesan. What are those little bears behind?] Fina
Fina looks at the Bear cub bus. I made it yesterday, so neither Fina nor Shuri knew about Bear cub bus.
[I made it because there are more people joining us. Noa and Marina and the others will get on that bear cub.] Yuna
[The bear cub? I want to ride the parent bear, but I also want to ride the bear cub.] Misa
[Well, if you really want to ride on the bigger one, then its fine to ride the bigger one.] Yuna
[Really?] Misa
[Yuna, are we riding on the same one as Missana-sama?] Marina
[No. Marina and Eru will be riding on the bear cub. Don’t worry, there’s nothing dangerous.] Yuna
The road to the tunnel was being maintained by the adventurers, by subjugating the monsters in the vicinity. Besides, it is safe inside the Bear Bus. Even if a monster appears, there are five adventurers inside including myself. As long as a high-ranking monster such as a dragon does not appear, we can immediately respond.
[Missana-sama, please let’s ride here together.] Marina
Marina began to persuade Misa. For me, it doesn’t matter which one Misa gets on. Fina and the others can enjoy riding on the parent bear bus and in the bear cub bus. They’re so energetic in the morning.
After a while, the children from the orphanage came out from the gate.
Some children are still sleepy, and others are pulling their hands to keep them walking.
[Ah, Yuna-oneechan. She’s white!]
