Chapter 713

Bear-san Made a Deal with a Fairy

“Queen...” (Ronne)

Ronne stared at the Fairy Queen and did not move.

Then, the Fairy Queen slowly approached and hugged Ronne.

“Welcome home.” (Queen)

“...Queen, I...” (Ronne)

“I shall ask you about the minute details later, but Yuna and Noire, thank you for bringing Ronne home.” (Queen)

She bowed lightly to us.

“I’m glad you were able to bring her back to us safely.” (Queen)

“Yes.” (Noa)

“Is there anything I can do to thank you?” (Queen)

To thank us?

As an ex-gamer, I would want something unique or super rare as a reward from the fairies.

Fairy drops, fairy tears, fairy....

I had to suppress these urges.

“Well, can you allow me to drop by sometime?” (Yuna)

At my words, the Queen’s face tightened.

“Why is that?” (Queen)

“I just want to speak with everyone, that’s all. Also, if there are any rare medicinal herbs, I’d like to have some.” (Yuna)

Like that Sleeping Powder?

There are various rare herbs found here in the fairy forest that could be identified and used, notwithstanding the fairy Sleeping Powder.

I could definitely find something useful here.

“That water pathway can’t be connected unless we create it, so you won’t be able to come back here as freely as you think.” (Queen)

“Oh, that’s okay... I have this door that I can move through.” (Yuna)

I took out the Bear Transfer Gate.

“I can feel the tremendous magic power in this...” (Queen)

The Queen said so as she looked at the Bear Transfer Gate.

Could she also feel Magic Power?

“It’s a magic tool. When this door is opened, it connects to the other teleportation doors.” (Yuna)

“That’s a fantastic tool.” (Queen)

I explained that like the water passage, only I could open this door.

“So may I put it outside the fairy forest? If I try to do something bad to the fairies, you can make me wander in the Lost Forest, or put me to sleep, or kill me.” (Yuna)

“Yuna-san!” (Noa)

Noa was startled.

“It’s okay. I’m not going to do anything bad to the fairies. I just genuinely don’t want to break the connection.” (Yuna)

Because they are fairies.

I’ve never even seen one before until the recent turn of events.

It would be a shame to break my connection with them like this.

“Okay, I understand, but there is a condition.” (Queen)

“Condition?” (Yuna)

“You will make a contract with the fairies. As you know, anyone can see us fairies in this fairy forest. We cannot allow you to act freely in such a place. If you act maliciously toward the fairies, you will continue to sleep until you die.” (Queen)

“Fine.” (Yuna)

I heed the Queen’s words.

“Yuna-san!” (Noa)

“I don’t have any ill will towards fairies, but it’s not fair for the contract to be so one-sided. Will you promise that you won’t do anything bad to me? I will only have ill will against someone, if they do something bad to me.” (Yuna)

The Queen looked around.

“They won’t do terrible things to you, but there may be many naughty children.” (Queen)

The Queen did not deny my words.

“I will warn them. If they do something bad to you, just tell me and I will take care of it.” (Queen)

So you’re saying I could be mad at them but not do anything terrible to the fairies?

That could be where we could come to a compromise.

In the first place, there was no merit for the Queen to let me enter the fairy forest. To be clear, it was an incredible deal for me.

“But, are you sure? The fairy forest is a secret, right?” (Yuna)

Ronne didn’t even tell Ryan-san about it.

“I feel a nostalgic magic power from you. Like you, I also feel I must not cut connections with you. However, I am still the Queen of the fairies. I have to protect everyone under me so I can compromise this much. This is where I draw my line.” (Queen)

Nostalgic magic power?

Was that why we were allowed here?

But I didn’t think we’d ever met in the past.

“So, how did it go? Did you get permission?” (Rosa)

“It was fine. We did.” (Yuna)

“That’s great!” (Ran)

“We can go back to Crimonia.” (Rosa)

“...” (Grimos)

“Thank you, Yuna.” (Blitz)

Rosa-san and Ran looked happy, Grimos, who was not very talkative, also looked happy, and Blitz looked relieved.

“But we can’t let you know where we are going, so we’re going to have to blindfold you all.” (Yuna)

I took out towels from my bear box.

“I’ll do it if that’s all you want.” (Blitz)

“Yes.” (Ran)

“Sure.” (Rosa)

“...” (Grimos)

With everyone’s approval, I wrapped a towel around Rosa-san and the others’ eyes.

With this, they should not be able to see us.

But just in case.

“Primme, Ronne, please?” (Yuna)

[Yes.] (Primme)

[I’ll take care of it.] (Ronne)

I whispered a request to them.

“Okay, we’re off.” (Yuna)

The Bear Bus started moving, and Primme and Ronne flew over to the Blitz, with the others sitting in the back.

Then, after a few moments, I heard them fall asleep.

“They have fallen asleep.” (Ronne)

I asked the Fairy Queen for some sleeping powder. Next, I asked Primme and Ronne to sprinkle it on the Blitz and the others.

Blindfolded and tired, the Blitz and the others fell asleep easily from the sleeping powder.

The Bear Bus travelled through the forest and came to another lake, guided by Primme and Ronne.

It was a long walk from the borders of the fairy forest, but if I were riding Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, it would take a little time for me to reach it.

“Where should we put the teleportation door?” (Yuna)

“I guess we should put it in the middle of the lake.” (Primme)

Just like the lake in the fairy forest, there was a small island in the middle.

“It would stand out.” (Yuna)

“People wouldn’t come here, so it wouldn’t be a problem. Besides, if we put it in the middle of the lake, it wouldn’t be easy to cross.” (Primme)

“Indeed.” (Ronne)

No normal person would travel so deep into the woods just to swim in a lake.

“But how do we get there? I know that Yuna-san can walk on the lake, but are you going to carry them one by one?” (Noa)

“Noa, if there’s no path, we’ll just make one.” (Yuna)

As I said so, I built a bridge that crossed over the lake, made of earth magic.

“Yuna-san, that’s wonderful!” (Noa)

“Yuna, you’re unbelievable.” (Primme)

“Really.” (Ronne)

I ignored the background commentary, got the Bear Bus going, and eventually crossed the bridge and came to the island.

I destroyed the bridge and set up the Bear Transfer Gate.

“So this is really the end.” (Noa)

Noa looked crestfallen.

“Noa, good job.” (Yuna)

“It was fun, but I’m sad.” (Noa)

“But, Noa, aren’t you going to be busy from now on?” (Yuna)

“Why is that?” (Noa)

“Because you have been away from home for quite a while, your studies will be waiting for you...” (Yuna)

We were away from Crimonia for about ten days.

Cliff might be worried.

“Ugh, right.” (Noa)

This was the fate of a noble’s young daughter.

I hope she studies hard and becomes a respectable noble’s daughter.

I didn’t want her to be a selfish young lady or a young lady who wastes taxpayers’ money.

“Well then, I’ll open the door.” (Yuna)

I opened the door of the Bear Transfer Gate.
