Chapter 330 Bear-san, Goes to the Castle to Report.

I used the Bear Gate to instantly return to the Bear House in the royal capital.

Going to a faraway place was quite difficult, but the return trip was very easy, so the Bear Gate really helped me a lot. The instantaneous movement was also good, but this one was rather convenient. It can also be used to defeat the Scorpion just like the last time.

Well, it’s nice to be back after some time, but it’s also a good idea to go and meet with the King as soon as possible.

So I’ll make time adjustments here as well.

I have many things to do. But first, I have to clean the Bear House in the royal capital that I don’t use often.

Since it was only used as a base for moving, it has accumulated dust. I don’t know when I’m going to bring an acquaintance.

Fina might stay with me here.

I’ll spend my time cleaning, washing, etc. Then, in the afternoon, I’ll head to the castle when it’s time for a snack.

While I was heading to the castle in the shape of a bear, I heard the sound of someone running from behind.

What’s that about?

someone was shouting my name. When I looked back, a beautiful blonde girl hugged me.

[Tilia?] Yuna

It was Tilia in her uniform who hugged me.

[Yuna, what are you doing here? are you perhaps heading to the castle?] Tilia

[Yes, but did Tilia just came back from school?] Yuna

Well, she’s wearing a school uniform, so it’s obvious.

[Yup. So while I was on my way back to the castle, I ran because I saw the back of someone familiar walking in front of me.] Tilia

It’s embarrassing to be told with such a cute smile.

[Does Tilia walk from school?] Yuna

[Yeah, that’s right.] Tilia

[Even though you’re a princess? Don’t you use a carriage or be guarded by an escort?] Yuna

[I go by carriage to school. But I go with my friends on the way back, so I’m walking back home.] Tilia

I thought she was being protected by a strict bodyguard, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Well, there wasn’t one at the school festival either.

However, it’s quite surprising that she’s not using the carriage on her way home. Was it okay for the princess to be walking out here alone?

Though I remembered one time, Tilia’s father, the King himself, went to the Bear House alone.

I get it.

The members of the royal family were doing whatever they please. It’s no use thinking about it.

[So is Yuna going to see Flora?] Tilia

[I am going to meet with His Majesty today.] Yuna

[With Father?] Tilia

[He asked me to do a job. I’m going to report it because the job was done.] Yuna

[Speaking of which, Yuna is an adventurer.] Tilia

That’s right.

By no means, my occupation and my race was a bear.

I’m a human adventurer.

[But it’s amazing that Father personally asked you to do a job.] Tilia

[Eh?] Yuna

[He’s the King, so he won’t ask you if he didn’t trust you.] Tilia

[It just kinda happened. There’s something I wanted to get there. If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t do it.] Yuna

[Is that right? Father seems to like Yuna very much.] Tilia

Um, that King?

I have to think about that.

……I wonder if that’s true?

[The food you bring were very rare.] Tilia

[I think that’s what he likes very much.] Yuna

He just wanted to eat pudding.

After some time while I was having a casual talk with Tilia, I can see the castle gate.

[Tilia-sama, welcome home.] Guard

[I’m home.] Tilia

[Also, it seems that Yuna-dono is with you?] Guard

[It just happened by chance.] Yuna

The soldiers were used to my responses. They were hardly surprised by it.

Though sometimes when they change shifts, there were others who were very surprised. But quite often, the soldiers who knew me were at the gate.

[When Yuna-dono comes, we were told to take her to His Majesty the King.] Guard

[Shall I go there alone? Or with someone else?] Yuna

[I shall take you…] Guard

[It’s okay. I’ll take her.] Tilia

[Tilia-sama?] Guard

Tilia stopped the soldiers who were trying to take me and offered to take me instead.

[But……] Guard

[Leave it to me. Father is in the Oval Office, isn’t he? I’m going with Yuna.] Tilia

Tilia grabbed my Bear Puppet and she donna-donna me into the castle. The gate guard saw us off without saying a word.

While we’re walking, I met someone I wouldn’t want to see.

[Ara, Yuna-chan, and Tilia-sama.] Eleanora

[Eleanora-san. Are you skipping your work again?] Yuna

[Even Yuna-chan, is saying the same thing as His Majesty. I’m just taking a break. So, why are Yuna-chan and Tilia-sama together?] Eleanora

[Yuna is going to meet with Father, so I’m taking her to his office.] Tilia

Eleanora-san thinks a little.

[Well then, I will also go with you.] Eleanora

[Hey, are you really working?] I wanted to tsukkomi her, but I held back… Well, she’s always like that anyway.

[I’m not going there to play. I’m not giving you delicious food.] Yuna

It’s a problem if she misunderstood why I’m here, so I’ll just say that just in case.

[Yuna-chan, just what do you take me for?] Eleanora

I was right, aren’t I?

I always go to Flora-sama’s room. Then you’re coming in from out of nowhere and eat food every time, weren’t you?

[Come on, let’s go.] Eleanora

I got sandwiched between Tilia and Eleanora, so I’m being donna-donna by both of them.

And so, we arrived at the usual office.

[Father, I’m coming in.] Tilia

She opened the door without waiting for a reply from inside and entered the room.

[Tilia? I’m working right now…… Yuna? And Eleanora?] King

The King, who was going through the mountains of papers, looked at Tilia and noticed that I and Eleanora-san were standing next to her.

[Yuna, you’re back.] King

[Just a moment ago.] Yuna

That’s a lie.

[So why are you together with Tilia and Eleanora?] King

[When I came back from school, I found Yuna swaying her pretty tail. She said she wanted to see Father, so I brought her here.] Tilia

I’m not swaying my tail. I was just walking normally.

[When I was taking a walk, I found a cute bear, so I followed her.] Eleanora

Eleanora imitated how cute the way Tilia talks.

[You should be working!] King

[I am working.] Eleanora

Didn’t you just say you were taking a walk? The King was as amazed as I am.

[Okay. Thank you for bringing Yuna. You can both step out now.] King

The King waved his hand and tried to drive Eleanora-san and Tilia out of the room like they were some annoyance.

[What? What are you going to do alone with her? Yuna-chan is still a child!] Eleanora

[Father!] Tilia [FBI-san!] Attattin

[Shi・go・to・no・wa・na・shi・da. (It’s about work.) Eleanora, you should know about that.] King

[I’m just joking. You don’t have to be so mad about it.] Eleanora

[It’s because you said something stupid. Don’t make stupid remarks like that because it’s going to have a negative impact on my daughter.] King

I think it’s too late. She’s already under her influence, she’s way too deep. She always said these things in front of Tilia, that’s why Tilia’s remarks were like that.

She’s definitely more influenced by Eleanora-san, than the queen.

On the other hand, Shia was a good kid because she grew up properly.

Shia was more like Cliff in a rather serious way. Even though Noa lives far away, she resembles Eleanora-san. I wonder, was it because of the blood?

[Then I can stay and listen to the report, right?] Eleanora

[That’s not fair. I also want to hear it.] Tilia

[I just asked to do a delivery job.] King

[Then it’s okay if we stay and listen to the report, right?] Tilia

Tilia looked at the King. The King looked at me.

[What do you think?] King

[Why are you asking me?] Yuna

[If it’s just an ordinary report, there is no problem. That’s why I’m asking you. I’ll be in trouble if I get blamed for it later.] King

Did he know something about the pyramid?

[What makes you think?] Yuna

[It took too long. I thought, with your bears, you would come back a little sooner.] King

Certainly, we waited a few days for the adventurers, we explored the basement of the pyramid and dived into the labyrinth. Furthermore, due to the time adjustment, I remained for two days in the city.

If you think about it normally, I should be back much earlier.

[But I might be doing some sightseeing in the city.] Yuna

[In that case, there is no problem. You were late, I thought something might have happened, so I tried to get them out of the room.] King

The King was trying to get them out for me, I see.

Certainly, I cannot speak openly about the pyramid.

But it’s like admitting that something must’ve happened to drive Tilia out of the room. But even if I don’t say anything, they’ll stay and listen.

Either way, it will be the same.

Also, it’ll be a problem if Tilia talked about it at her school…

[Tilia, this is my job as an adventurer.] Yuna

[I knew it, something must’ve happened…] King

[Something happened.] Eleanora

The King had a look.

Eleanora-san looks like she’s an aunt somewhere. Ah, Eleanora-san may look young, but is she an actual aunt?

[Yuna-chan, Did you think something strange just now?] Eleanora

[You’re just imagining things.] Yuna

Don’t go and read people’s hearts.

[Okay. For now, Tilia should leave the room.] King

[Eh?~] Tilia

[Don’t me.] King

[Then, why can Eleanora stay?] Tilia

[Obviously. What would I do when I hear an outrageous story by myself. It’s necessary because she’s in charge of Yuna. And Eleanora knows what I asked Yuna.] King

Eh? What? The person in charge of me? Now, where have I heard that phrase before?

[Then, I will also be in charge of Yuna.] Tilia

That’s not a good idea.

I’m not a bear from a zoo and I don’t need you to feed me.

Moreover, what’s with the princess being in charge of me?

[I also want to hear the report. It’s unfair that everyone is hiding it from me.] Tilia

[That’s not it. I made a promise to Yuna. I simply protect that promise.] King

His promise.

The words reminded me of the hush order for the 10,000 monsters incident and the Kraken. Apparently, the King wanted to keep what I’ve been doing a secret to the public.

It’s harder than I thought.

[Then, on behalf of Tilia-sama, I shall listen to what Yuna-chan has to say.] Eleanora

Eleanora-san’s words had been approved by the King, so she sat on a chair.

[That’s cheating. I also want to hear it.] Tilia

Tilia grabbed my clothes. It doesn’t stretch, but I want you to stop pulling on it. I looked at the King to ask for help.

[You decide.] King

[Yuna……] Tilia

Tilia looked at me in the eyes.

[…………] Yuna

I sigh as if I gave up.

[Don’t tell it to anyone.] Yuna

[Yuna, thank you very much. I won’t tell anyone.] Tilia

Even if I decline her here, she will definitely inquire about it later. Then I should give up and make her keep a promise.

Tilia happily sat on a chair, and so I did the same.

[Please keep quiet about it as well, Eleanora-san.] Yuna

[It’s alright. I have a tight mouth. Oh, but I have to tell about it to my dear Cliff.] Eleanora

[No, please don’t.] Yuna

The King and I sigh at the same time. The King also seems to be having a hard time with Eleanora-san. Do men have a hard time with women in this world?

Cliff seems to have a hard time, too.

Author’s Note:

It’s kinda funny because it was supposed to end on her way back to Crimonia.

I was wondering whether to make Tilia or the crown prince, listen to Yuna’s story, but I decided on Tilia.

Also, the crown prince’s turn has come a long way.

In the activity report, I wrote the difference between the 5 volumes of the book version and the web version. In the future, the story will proceed based on the book version. It may be related to the orphanage, so it would be helpful if you read it before the sea arc.

I apologize for the inconvenience it caused to our dear readers, and thank you.
