“They’re very energetic, aren’t they?” (Sakura)
Sakura smiled as she watched Noa and the others walk out of the room.
Noa and Misa might be noble ladies, but they have a childlike quality. On the other hand, Sakura was mature.
It might not be improper to say that she was an adult on the inside, just like Kagali-san.
Just as Noa and Misa left the room, Noa turned around to look at Sakura.
“Would you like to join us, Sakura?” (Noa)
Noa invited Sakura.
“Are you sure?” (Sakura)
“Yes, because people who like Hugging Bear and Swaying Bear are our friends.” (Noa)
Sakura looked happy to hear those words.
Sakura looked at me.
I nodded.
“Yes. If it’s not too much trouble, I’d be happy to join you guys.” (Sakura)
Sakura walked out of the room. Shinobu quietly followed behind her as if watching over her.
It could not be helped that she was her guardian, but she looked more like a stalker.
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were with them, so they didn’t need an escort, but I guess she was just faithful to her job. freewёbnoνel.com
Shinobu may look like a chatterbox, but she was earnest regarding her job.
I looked at Kagali-san, who remained behind.
“Kagali-san, you haven’t returned to your original form, have you? Or maybe you can do that, but you like your current looks more?” (Yuna)
“It’s not my preference. Why do you think I like this form? If I could return to my original form, I could go to a tavern and drink whenever I want.” (Kagali)
Well, in her current form, they would not serve her alcohol if she went to a tavern. Most likely, she would be refused entry even before setting foot in.
“You’re still dressed as a bear, aren’t you?” (Kagali)
“Well, I have the bear’s blessing.” (Yuna)
“In that case, if you dress up as a fox, you’ll get the fox’s blessing.” (Kagali)
“If one can receive such a blessing, Sakura might be pleased to dress in a fox outfit.” (Yuna)
Kagali-san and I laughed at the thought of Sakura in a fox costume.
“How much do those two know about you?” (Kagali)
“They know about the Bear Transfer Gate and Bear Phone, but I never told them about my fight with Orochi in this country.” (Yuna)
[I defeated a big monster called the Giant Serpent called Orochi in the Land of Wa, so the king thanked me and rewarded me with this mansion.]
I could never reveal that.
It would sound like I’m bragging.
“Also, I didn’t tell them about Kagali-san.” (Yuna)
“I see.” (Kagali)
I didn’t know how they would react if they knew that Kagali-san had lived for hundreds of years and could change into a fox.
Besides, it would be challenging to explain all of it.
“Are they trustworthy in your eyes?” (Kagali)
“Yes, they are trustworthy. That’s why I told them about this place and even brought them here. But that doesn’t mean you have to tell them about yourself.” (Yuna)
What I thought of them was for me to decide.
And just because I believed in them did not mean that others also had to do the same.
Moreover, it should be up to the person to decide what they want others to know about them.
I didn’t even tell Fina, the person I trusted the most, that I came from another world.
“Okay.” (Kagali)
“Also, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from drinking in front of those girls. It’s too much trouble to explain.” (Yuna)
Generally speaking, children were not supposed to drink alcohol. That was true both in the Land of Wa and in Crimonia.
…I didn’t know about Dwarves, though.
“How have you been lately?” (Kagali)
“Lately, you mean after the slime incident?” (Yuna)
“You are a person who loves trouble and sticks her nose in it.” (Kagali)
“Yeah, I have a hard time keeping my nose out of trouble.” (Yuna)
I thought for a moment before answering.
