Bear-san Explaining to Cliff
Noa and I explained to Cliff what had happened at the haunted house. .đ
Cliff clutched his head in his hands as he listened to Noa, Primme, and me. He also looked at Primme again and again.
Primmeâs appeared more visible after absorbing my magical power.
ââŚThatâs why I need Noaâs help in finding this fairyâs sister. Can I take Noa with me? I will protect her.â (Yuna)
âFather, please. I wonât do anything dangerous. Just let me help Primme-san find her sister.â (Noa)
Cliff looked at Noa and then at Primme, who was sitting at the table.
âHaaah, a fairy. I never thought Iâd see a fairy with my own eyes. Do you really need Noa, Yuna?â (Cliff)
âWe still have to go to the fairy forest to confirm our hypothesis. But I think we will most likely need her help.â (Yuna)
The fact of the matter was that we would need to find out if Noa would be needed in tracking Primmeâs sister before entering the fairy forest. Above all, I would like to respect Noaâs feelings.
âGranting a fairyâs wish. If we donât grant the fairyâs wish, we will be unhappy orâŚâ (Cliff)
âAs I said to these girls. We donât have the power to make people happy or unhappy.â (Primme)
âNo, even if the fairies themselves donât think so, if thatâs what the legend says, I canât deny that itâs impossible.â (Cliff)
I guess you could say thereâs no smoke without a fire.
They may be making people happy or unhappy without people knowing.
âAs for Noa, I will protect her. Moreover, we might find Primmeâs sister sooner, and no other event may happen.â (Yuna)
âIâm not doubting your competence, not really. Iâm just concerned about your tendency to invite trouble.â (Cliff)
âInvite trouble?â (Yuna)
What was he talking about?
âYou, when you went to the sea, there was a Kraken. When you went to the royal capital, there were 10,000 monsters. When you went to the school festival, you ended up in trouble with the Knight Commander. The Golem when you were looking for Mithril. The same happened with the dessert case. There was also the strange person who appeared in the town of Euphalia as well when you went there. Wherever you go, there is trouble.â (Cliff)
Cliff listed the incidents Iâd been involved in one after another.
âUgh.â (Yuna)
I couldnât refute him.
But still, it seemed like Cliff knew a lot of things that happened. Most of those cases were known to Ellelaura-san and the King, so it was not surprising that Cliff had heard about them.
There were also things that Cliff didnât know about, such as the Elven Forest event, the trouble in the Land of Harmony, and the Slime event.
Certainly, everywhere I went, something was happening.
ButâŚ
âThat doesnât mean Iâm inviting those troubles, you know. It was already happening before I arrived.â (Yuna)
The Kraken was already in the sea in Mileela before I went there, an acquaintance of the King caused the appearance of 10,000 monsters in the royal capital, and the commotion at the school was to protect Shia. The incident in the desert had already happened even before I arrived, and the case with the golem was simply a coincidence; all I did was defeat it.
The incident in Euphalia was also caused by a man who wanted to take revenge. In the Land of Harmony, there were signs of the resurrection of the serpent, and in the Elven Forest, I only followed along with Sanya-san when she said he was going to the Elven Forest.
I was not the cause of anything. It wasnât my fault, you know.
âYes. Itâs not your fault. I just canât help but feel uneasy about where youâre going.â (Cliff)
It was a normal reaction for a father.
âBut at the same time, I know how many people you have saved. Without you, many of them would have been unhappy, and the same goes for Shia.â (Cliff)
With that, Cliff bowed his head.
âTake care of Noa.â (Cliff)
âLeave it to me.â (Yuna)
âIâm sure sheâll be fine with you.â (Cliff)
Cliff then switched his attention to Noa.
âThank you, father.â (Noa)
âYou are heading to Fairy Forest. And who knows what might be in there. Be careful.â (Cliff)
âYes!â (Noa)
âYunaâs instructions must be obeyed, and you must not act selfishly.â (Cliff)
âYes, I will not leave Yuna-san.â (Noa)
She then hugged me, who was sitting next to her.
âYuna, take care of my daughter.â (Cliff)
âIâll protect her, I promise.â (Yuna)
ââKuuunn.ââ
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were hugged by Noa and me, squealed as if to say, âWe will as wellâ.
âOf course, Iâll also ask you, little ones, to take care of Noa.â (Cliff)
Cliff said to Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear in return.
âAnd Primme. Iâd appreciate it if you wouldnât do anything dangerous involving my daughter.â (Cliff)
âNo, I wonât. Weâll only need a little bit of help from her, thatâs all.â (Primme)
Well, we wouldnât be heading to a place where we would need to defeat some monsters.
But we should be careful about the possibility that the people who were with Primmeâs sister could be dangerous. They could also be keeping Primmeâs sister locked up. If that happened, a discussion wouldnât be enough to settle things.
âThen weâll need to prepare for Noaâs journey. Can you tell Lala to help with preparations as well? Lala may end up worried if you donât tell her about the situation.â (Cliff)
âYes.â (Noa)
Noa replied happily.
I was about to leave when I realized.
âOh, what should I do about the Adventurersâ Guild report? If I told them, there was a fairy, it would cause a commotion, wouldnât it?â (Yuna)
With so many eyes on us, it would not be surprising if someone thought of doing something bad.
Primme, she might be arrogant and naive, but it was not a good idea to expose her to the eyes of so many people.
Even though without my magical power, Primme would not be visible, there was no advantage in spreading rumors about a fairy appearing.
âIâll deal with the Adventurersâ Guild as I see fit. Iâll also have them ban people from entering that mansion until you guys return, so donât worry.â (Cliff)
âThank you.â (Yuna)
Cliff seemed to know how to deal with this situation, and he was more than willing to keep the fairy thing a secret.
Leaving Cliff in charge of the Adventurersâ Guild, we moved to Noaâs room.
âWhat do we need?â (Noa)
âIâve got the basics, donât worry.â (Yuna)
We have a Bear House and a large food supply in my bear storage. Even if we were lost on a deserted island, we would have enough food to survive.
There would be no problems with food and shelter.
âI guess all you need is a change of clothes or something.â (Yuna)
I looked at Noaâs clothes and realized.
âMaybe you should change into something that looks like a commoner girlâs outfit?â (Yuna)
âYes, thatâs true.â (Noa)
Noa replied as she looked at the dress-like outfit she was wearing.
It would not be suitable for travelling.
This time we might end up travelling in the forest or going to unknown villages and towns on our search. Considering the situation, commoner clothes would be better.
âBut you donât change your clothes, do you Yuna-san?â (Noa)
âI always wear this wherever I go.â (Yuna)
It was too late for me to change that.
Besides, this time I had to protect Noa, so I couldnât take my outfit off.
âŚI wouldnât take it off even if I was alone.
âI feel like you are running away from something, but it is indeed better to wear clothes that are easy to move in, and Iâll discuss it with Lala when she arrives.â (Noa)
Not wanting to be pursued further about my attire, I changed the subject and asked Primme something that I was curious about.
âAnyway, why did Primme use the Fairy Water to come here? Why didnât you use it to go to another village or town to look for her?â (Yuna)
âThere is an old saying, âThe Fairy Water will show you what you are looking forâ. So I did use fairy water to find her. Besides, the only place I know where people live is a village nearby to the forest, so I canât really think of other places.â (Primme)
I wonder if the fairy forest was in a secluded place.
Well, if people were nearby, it wouldnât be surprising if the word about fairies spread more widely.
As we were talking about this, there was a knock at the door, and Lala entered.
âYoung Lady NoaâŚI heard from Cliff-sama that you are going awayâŚâ (Lala)
Lala-sanâs words stopped.
Ahead of Lalaâs eyes was Primme, flying around us.
âŚ
âA fairyâŚâ (Lala)
We explained the situation to Lala.
âI see. So Young Lady Noa is going to look for a fairy? I thought they were just fantasy stories, but there really are fairies, huh?â (Lala)
Lala looked at Primme.
âBut itâs going to be a hassle if Primme can be seen by just about anyone. Canât you make yourself visible only to those you want to see you?â (Yuna)
This time, it was Lala who saw her, so it was fine, but there was a possibility of strangers seeing her.
From Lalaâs line, it sounded like fairies were on a fantasy level. If someone saw Primme and told everyone about it, it would be a big problem.
âNo, I donât think I can do something that convenient. Iâm just using your magic to make myself visible to other people.â (Primme)
âThen it will be a little inconvenient when we travel, you know?â (Yuna) .đ
âWhat?â (Primme)
Primme puffed out her cheeks.
âIn that case, please wait a moment.â
Lala left the room.
âI wonder what she was up to.â (Yuna)
âI donât know.â (Noa)
Lala-san quickly returned with something.
âHow about hiding here?â (Lala)
It was a cute little pouch, the kind that a girl would carry around with her.
âSince Noa-sama is wearing commoner clothes, I donât think it would stand out if you had it with you.â (Lala)
âYou want me to get inside this thing?â (Primme)
âYou canât?â (Noa)
âWhen we go out in public, I can just stop the magic from Yuna, you know?â (Primme)
âThen I wonât be able to see Primme-san, and I wonât be able to talk to you.â (Noa)
Noa looked a little sad.
âUgh, I understand. I just have to stay inside it, right?â (Primme)
âPrimme-san, thank you.â (Noa)
âHmph, it might not be really necessary. But, it certainly would be a problem if I couldnât have a conversation with you when asking about my sister.â (Primme)
Now she was acting like a tsundere.
âSo when are you leaving?â (Lala)
âAs far as Iâm concerned, I want to leave soon, so will tomorrow be okay?â (Yuna)
âThen you can leave the rest to me. Iâll have everything the Young Lady would need by tomorrow.â (Lala)
Alright, I would leave that part to Lala-san.
