Chapter 379

379 Bear-san Goes to the Royal Capital

Misa returned, and a few days later, Shia will also return to the royal capital . And I was responsible to be her escort .

Shia, who learned that I would give Flora-sama a pressed flower, said, I should have refused there . But if I go immediately after her return to the royal capital, it would seem that I have refused her because I don’t like to go with her . Therefore, although it’s a little troublesome, I decided to go to the royal capital with Shia .

I declined the escort fee, but it was decided that I’ll receive it through the Adventurer’s Guild .

When I come out of the town, I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear .

[If we return to the royal capital riding on Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, Cattleya will definitely be surprised . ] Shia

Cattleya was also very fond of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear . I haven’t seen Cattleya since the school festival . It can’t be helped because I have no chance to meet with her .

[Now, which one should I ride?] Shia

Shia asked me while stroking Swaying Bear . I’ll have Shia ride on Swaying Bear, and I’ll ride on Hugging Bear .

[Swaying Bear-chan, I’ll be in your care . ] Shia

[Ooh, as expected, it’s cute . I’ve been thinking about it when we’re out in the sea, but they’re really comfortable to ride . If I had Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan, I could come to Crimonia real fast . ] Shia

The horse that Shia got from the royal capital will be kept at Cliff’s mansion . The horses in the royal capital and the horses in the Crimonia mansion are Cliff’s horses after all, so it doesn’t matter which place they are now . Normally, it seems that she should take it with her when she goes back to the royal capital . Well, since they’re aristocrats, there’s no problem if they increase the number of horses by one .

[We’ll go on full speed, so try not to fall . Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear . Please . ] Yuna

>

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear started running . I don’t need to hide it from Shia anymore, so we’ll speed up . We’re faster than when I escorted Noa to the royal capital .

[Yu, Yuna-san, isn’t it too fast?] Shia

[They can still go faster than this . ] Yuna

[Th, that’s right! Swaying Bear-chan, is he okay?] Shia

[Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear, it’s fine to take a break . Just tell me when you’re tired . ] Yuna

>

For some reason, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear sped up .

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear jumped off the road and now running in a road-less direction to shorten the time going to the royal capital .

[Yuna-san, we’re off the road . ] Shia

[It’s okay because this is the shortcut . ] Yuna

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, dashed through the grasslands, raced through the woods, and sprinted on the river without using bridges . Shia knows that they can run on water, so there’s nothing wrong with it . Plus, it’s time-saving .

Then, at nighttime, I set up the bear house and stay overnight .

Upon entering the bear house, Shia explored all the rooms . This is the second time she has entered this bear house . The first time was at Targui . At that time, she shouldn’t be able to see inside the bear house in a hurry . Therefore, today should be as good as seeing the bear house for the first time .

[I heard about it from Noa, but you really have a bath in here . And it also has bears on it . ] Shia

Shia moves around the house, found the bath, and makes a fuss .

[I’ll prepare the bath and the meal, so wait a minute . ] Yuna

[I will help you too . ] Shia

[It’s okay because I’ll just put hot water in the bath and take out the meal from the item bag . ] Yuna

I prepared the bath, then took some bread out of the bear box, and we had a simple dinner .

[I’ll show you the room later, so you can go to bed after taking a bath . ] Yuna

[Usually, you cannot have a camp like this one . Also, traveling is very fast . Having Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan, and an item bag that can hold even a house . Yuna-san, it’s too convenient . ] Shia

Shea says such a thing while holding Swaying Bear in bear cub form .

[Usually, I sleep under the night sky with only a blanket . Of course, I can’t have a bath either . If Yuna-san escorts me every time, I don’t need to ask other people . ] Shia

Like the bear house, I think the bear box that can hold a bear house of this size is the most amazing . It’s in a convenient bear puppet form that can also hold a huge number of monsters .

And Shia calls out to me when she finishes her meal .

[Yuna-san, why don’t we take a bath together? The bath is very wide, so we can get in together . ] Shia

[I’ll clean it up afterwards, so I’ll take one later . ] Yuna

I politely decline Shia’s invitation .

Taking a bath with someone of ​​the same age as Shia is mentally damaging . I glanced at Shia’s breasts . They’re definitely bigger than mine . If I try to compare it, the pillows will get wet with tears .

Although, I should be overtaking her in half a year or even a full year, so I’ll be patient until then .

[I think Swaying Bear is tired, so please get in with Swaying Bear . ] Yuna

I escape at the expense of Swaying Bear .

[Then, you’re getting in with me Swaying Bear-chan . ] Shia

Shia goes to the bath with Swaying Bear without knowing my real thoughts . After tidying up the dinner table, I guided Shia to the bedroom when she gets out of the bath .

[We’re leaving early tomorrow . Swaying Bear, if Shia oversleeps, wake her up . ] Yuna

[Swaying Bear-chan, I’m counting on you . ] Shia

I took a bath with Hugging Bear and go to sleep with Hugging Bear .

Petchi petchi, petchi petchi .

The next day, Hugging Bear woke you up . I thank you and get up and go to prepare breakfast .

[Yuna-san, Swaying Bear-chan’s way of waking someone up is terrible . ] Shia

Shia comes out while rubbing her belly . When I heard the story, it seems that she took a jumping body slam .

[That’s because Shia doesn’t get up properly . ] Yuna

I also heard that she was chatting with Swaying Bear until late . You can’t just keep talking with him like you’re talking to your pet . Well, I can’t say anything about people because I also talk to Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear .

[But isn’t it too early to get up?] Shia

[I don’t want anyone to see the bear house, so we’ll have to leave early . ] Yuna

Even if this is far from the highway, someone may still happen to find it .

After eating breakfast, we left for the royal capital . We took a shortcut away from the road and arrived at the royal capital in the afternoon .

[I can’t believe it . We shouldn’t be arriving this quickly . ] Shia

[Come on, let’s get going . ] Yuna

After returning Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to the bear puppets, we entered the royal capital and I sent Shia home .

[Well then, see you again . ] Yuna

[Yuna-san, why don’t you come inside and greet my mother?] Shia

[Hmm, I’m going to the castle, so I think I can meet her there . ] Yuna

If I enter the castle, there is a high probability that Eleanora-san will just pop out of nowhere .

[Then, if you could meet my mother, could you tell her that I was back?] Shia

[Got it . ] Yuna

After parting from Shia, I head to the castle .

Going through the castle gate as usual . I said to the gatekeeper, , but he still rushes out, saying, .

Arriving at Flora-sama’s room, knocking on the door . (Of course, with bear gloves removed . )

Anju-san appears from inside the room .

[It’s Yuna-san, welcome . ] Anju

She invited me to the room with a smile .

When I entered the room, I saw Flora-sama holding a pen and writing something on a piece of paper .

[Flora-sama, Yuna-san has come . ] Anju

[Bear-san!] Flora

When she saw me, she suddenly has a big smile on her face . Seeing this smile makes me want to come to see Flora-sama more often .

[What was Flora-sama doing?] Yuna

[I was drawing Bear-san . ] Flora

Flora-sama lifts the paper and shows it to me .

A picture that looked like a black animal was drawn there . Apparently, the black animal seems to be a bear . It’s a cute childish picture .

I don’t think she’ll be an artist in the future, but it’s good to have an artistic spirit from an early age . It fosters sensitivity .

[This time too, you can draw Yuna-san’s picture well . ] Anju

[Un!] Flora

[Eh?] Yuna

Wait a minute, I heard a word that I can’t ignore . Perhaps, that black animal is me? She was saying . It’s a black animal from any angle . It’s good enough to call it a bear with a hundred legs . But this is me?

[Is this black bear me?] Yuna

[Yeah!] Flora

Flora-sama affirms it with pure eyes .

It’s good to think that this is a picture drawn by a little girl . But I want her to at least understand how a human looks .

Well then, I will give Flora-sama a pressed flower as a gift .

[Thank you, Bear-san . ] Flora

[Then I’ll decorate it in your room . ] Anju

When Anju-san receives the pressed flower in the frame, she hung it on the wall .

[Bear-san, I’ll give you this . ] Flora

Flora-sama presents me the picture of the black animal she was drawing earlier with a smile . Of course, my reply has been decided .

[Thank you . I will cherish it . ] Yuna

Flora-sama looks happy when I receive it . It’s a picture drawn by Flora-sama . It might be a good idea to save it and show it to Flora-sama a few years later .

Then, while I was drawing with Flora-sama, Eleanora-san arrived later than usual . However, there was only one person who entered the room . The King is nowhere to be found .

[Yuna-chan, you’re here . That means Shia is back?] Eleanora

[She came back together with me . ] Yuna

[You escorted her . Thank you . I wonder if she enjoyed it too . ] Eleanora

[She had fun . Though I didn’t expect that Shia will come to Crimonia . ] Yuna

I was surprised when Shia appeared with Lurina-san .

[Since she heard about the story of the sea excursion, she insisted on going there . So what were you doing?] Eleanora

Eleanora-san looks at the table . There are papers and a pen on the table, and a picture of a bear is drawn on the paper .

[As usual, Yuna-chan is good at drawing . ] Eleanora

Looking at the bear picture I drew, she leaked such an impression . I was teaching Flora-sama and hoping that Flora-sama’s drawing skills would improve as much as possible .

[How about me?] Flora

[Flora-sama is also good . This is Yuna-chan right here . ] Eleanora

She looks at the picture next to me and answers . That is the picture I got from Flora-sama earlier . Why am I only seeing the picture of the black animal-like creature?

Maybe I look like this to the others?
