Bear-san Having a Discussion

I explained how we had arrived in this town since Blitz and the others were going to help us.

“So you came all the way to this town based on a clue just from a reaction from the handkerchief in Noire-chan’s body.” (Rosa)

“Is there something we can help with? Noire, can you tell us where Primme-chan’s sister is? You know the direction, right?” (Ran)

Ran looked at Noa as if to confirm. Noa shook her head in response.

“I can sense Primme’s sister’s magic, but I don’t know where she is in this city exactly. Her magic is spread out everywhere... Or maybe she used a wide-area spell? It’s difficult to explain, but I can feel her magic from many different directions.” (Noa)

Noa explained apologetically.

“Well basically, Noa can’t pinpoint my sister’s location in this town, so we plan to gather more information about this place. Yesterday, we heard the term Fairy Knight... Rosa-san and the others, have you ever heard about them?” (Primme)

“Fairy Knights?” (Rosa)

“What a very interesting name!” (Ran)

“Fairy knights, huh? Well, we have just arrived in town today, you see.” (Blitz)

“I remember someone mentioning it somewhere...” (Rosa)

“I haven’t.” (Ran)

Ran didn’t seem to know, but Blitz and Rosa-san seemed to have heard it. But they didn’t seem to remember where exactly they heard it.

Finally, Grimos, who had been listening in silence, opened her mouth.

“I think we heard it when we were entering the town.” (Grimos)

“...Oh, that time.” (Blitz)

“Ah... yes” (Rosa)

“I don’t remember.” (Ran)

At Grimos’ words, Blitz and Rosa-san responded, but Ran’s response seemed to tell us that she didn’t remember.

“What did you hear?” (Noa)

“Well, when we entered the town, we were warned that we should not get involved with the knights in the town, especially to not reveal to them that we were adventurers.” (Rosa)

“That’s when we heard the term Fairy Knights.” (Blitz)

I wondered if it was the uncle at the entrance of the gate who told them about it.

“Um, did you hear about anything else?” (Noa)

“I tried to ask him more about it, but there were people lining up behind us to enter the town, so we couldn’t press him for more details.” (Blitz)

Blitz answered Noa’s question.

“Besides, we were too busy wondering where we were.” (Rosa)

“Fairy knights... is Primme’s sister involved with them?” (Ran)

I guess they also felt so.

“Yesterday, when we went to the Adventurer’s Guild, we saw the fairy knights, but they were arrogant and didn’t seem very nice.” (Yuna)

“So maybe that’s the reason why the people in town warned us?” (Blitz)

“Yesterday I couldn’t ask them at the guild about the fairy knights because of bad timing, so we were planning to go and ask them again today.” (Yuna)

On our way there, we ran into Rosa-san and returned to the inn.

“Well then, we’ll go with you.” (Rosa)

“Right. We also want information from the Adventurers’ Guild.” (Blitz)

If Rosa-san and the others came with us, it would be a great help.

If it was just me and Noa, it would be difficult to ask about the fairy knights because of our appearance and age. If they asked us why we wanted to know about them, we would not be able to answer them.

Above all, since we have set ourselves up as ordinary girls from a village, it would be strange for such village girls to ask about the fairy knights.

But for the adventurers, Rosa-san and the others, it would be easy for them to ask.

“Thank you. It would be helpful if you could come with us.” (Yuna)

We had decided what we were going to do, and I was about to get up from the bed when Noa spoke up.

“Um, just to confirm, Rosa-san and the others arrived in this town today, right?” (Noa)

“Yes.” (Rosa)

“Even if you don’t know about this town, do you know what country we are in?” (Noa)

Blitz walked with us, while keeping a close distance to us.

He was like a classic hero from a comic book or novel.

I could see why women flocked to him, but that didn’t mean I was going to join his harem.

I have to be careful about Noa, too.

But Noa hugged me as if she were competing with Blitz for my attention.

“I won’t leave Yuna-san either.” (Noa)

Either way, Noa should not leave my side.

While still attracting stares, we arrived at the Adventurers’ Guild.

Once inside, the guild was just as deserted as it was yesterday.

We looked for the receptionist from yesterday, but as we expected, she was not at the reception desk, and we found her sitting on a chair in the bar area. The receptionist also noticed us. It did not seem like she was drinking alcohol.

“Oh, aren’t you the girl dressed as a bear from yesterday? What are you up to today? Didn’t you go back to the village?” (Receptionist)

The receptionist’s question was valid because after selling the intended Wolf materials, we should have been on our way back to the village.

[Why is she asking you that question?] (Rosa)

Rosa-san asked in a whisper.

[Well, when we got here, we needed this country’s currency. So I hid the fact that I was an adventurer and had them accept monster materials from me in exchange for some funds. At that time, we pretended to be people from a nearby village.] (Yuna)

[Oh, I see.] (Rosa)

With my explanation, Rosa-san immediately understood.

“And why are you with adventurers?” (Receptionist)

She didn’t recognize me as an adventurer, but she immediately recognized Blitz and the others as adventurers. I knew it, it was the way I looked.

“If you’re thinking of doing something bad by tricking these girls, you will be in for a world of hurt.” (Receptionist)

The receptionist stepped between me and Blitz and the others, as if to protect me and Noa.

“Don’t worry. I know these girls.” (Blitz)

“Is he telling me the truth?” (Receptionist)

She looked at me and Noa as if to confirm.

“Yeah, so we’re fine. Thank you for your concern.” (Yuna)

“Well, that’s good.” (Receptionist)

She relaxed her guard against my words.

She was a kind person.

“You guys aren’t adventurers in this town, are you?” (Receptionist)

“No, we’re adventurers from another town, or rather, another country.” (Blitz)

“Another country? How did you end up in this town from somewhere far away?”

“Well, it’s a long story.” (Blitz)

They couldn’t really say they were lost, could they?

“So, I have a few questions...” (Blitz)

“I don’t know if I can answer them, but what is it?” (Receptionist)

“It’s about those Fairy Knights.” (Blitz)

The receptionist’s face hardened at Blitz’s words.

“Did something happen to them? Did they do anything to you two?” (Receptionist)

The receptionist asked me, not Blitz.

“No, nothing happened to us.” (Yuna)

Maybe she thought that the knights had tried to do something to us, but Blitz and the others saved us.

“Well, that’s good. Then you’d better get out of this town as soon as possible.” (Receptionist)

“What will they do if we continue to stay in town?” (Blitz)

Yesterday, her words insinuated that the knights might do something to us if we stayed in town.

Was that the reason why yesterday, when the knights showed up, we were told to hide ourselves from them.

Blitz and the others were also told to leave.
