Bear-San, Observing the Knights

After hiding behind a rock, I got off the Swaying Bear and peeked at the knights from behind the rock.

Noa got off Hugging Bear as well, and peeked from under me.

There were about 10 knights, and someone was giving them instructions. I wonder if that was the captain.

“Hey, why are you hiding and watching? They are also humans, right?” (Primme)

Primme, who was flying over my head, asked me.

“We’re all humans, but not all humans get along.” (Yuna)

If every human were friendly, there would be no wars, no conflicts, and no fights.

“Besides, because of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, they might attack us.” (Yuna)

“If Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear are attacked, it would be very troublesome.” (Primme)

“People are such troublesome beings.” (Yuna)

Primme agreed with my comment.

But that does not mean we should be hostile to anything and everything.

First, information was necessary.

I observed the Knights fighting the wolves, but they were not dressed like the knights I saw in the royal capital, where Ellelaura-san worked.

“By the way, Noa, have you ever seen Knight’s in those outfits?” (Yuna)

“...No.” (Noa)

I thought she might have seen knights from other countries, since she was the daughter of a noble family, but she had also never seen a similar outfit before.

While we were talking, the knights were defeating wolves one after another.

They seemed to have a certain amount of ability.

To get information about the knights, I used the wind magic I previously used in the Adventurers’ Guild. Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

[Damn, this is a pain in the neck.]

[Don’t let them get away]

[I know.]

I made it possible to hear the voices of the knights.

“I hear voices.” (Noa)

“Is this voice the voice of those distant humans?” (Primme)

“Yes. Hey, I want to listen to what they have to say, so you two, be quiet.” (Yuna)

When I told them so, they covered their mouths with their hands.

The knights finally defeated the Wolves.

[This is the end.]

[Yeah, but it’s not like we’re going to be making any difference beyond taking down the Wolves.]

[What, you’re saying. We’re the ones who caused the adventurers to...]

[Enough chit-chatting. Go collect the wolves we killed. No, wait...]

A captain-like figure started to look around.

[Captain, is something wrong?]

[There’s a strange magic floating in the air around here...]

The wind magic had been noticed!

[Captain, is it true? To me, it just feels like a nice breeze.]

[Be quiet.]

Was he checking the flow of magic power?

If they were to sense my magic, they would soon discover that I was hiding here.

If they found us, we might get into trouble.

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear could be returned, but there would be no answers as to why we were hiding behind rocks in the first place, and why I cast wind magic, or why we were even here.

“No, not really...” (Yuna)

“Yes, Yuna-san is a fantastic person.” (Noa)

I was about to say, “I’m not really amazing,” but Noa interrupted me and answered.

“So that means it will be okay if we encounter a monster?” (Primme)

“Well, I think we will be okay against relatively weak monsters like wolves.” (Yuna)

“Actually, I was a little worried before. I was afraid that if a monster appeared and attacked Yuna and Noa, it might become dangerous, but when I found out that these bears were summoned beasts and that they could come with us, I was glad. But I didn’t expect Yuna to be so strong.” (Primme)

“You know, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear are strong as well, so it was not a mistake.” (Noa)

Primme seemed to feel guilty that she was putting us in harm’s way.

She may be a little arrogant, but she seemed to be a kind girl, worrying about her sister and us.

However, it seemed that her sister had a higher priority than us. That was to be expected when it came to family.

After silently moving away from the knights, I asked Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to stop and let Noa check the direction we needed to go.

After running for a while, we found what seemed to be a town.

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear stopped running and Noa once more concentrated with her eyes closed.

“I can feel it from the direction of that town.” (Noa)

“Then is my sister in that town?!” (Primme)

Primme was about to jump out of her pouch.

“I don’t know yet. It could be beyond the town.” (Noa)

But I think there was a good chance that Primme’s sister was there.

However, I didn’t want to give her any false hope, just in case her sister wasn’t there.

“It will take some time, but let’s circle around the town.” (Yuna)

That would give us an idea if she was really in the town.

Primme and Noa agreed, so we circled the town.

After going around to confirm, we have verified that Primme’s sister was indeed inside the town.

“That confirms it. My sister is really in this town.” (Primme)

“I know you’re happy. But remember, don’t act so careless.” (Yuna)

“Ugh, I know. I wouldn’t have known that she was in that town if it weren’t for Noa.” (Primme)

If I hadn’t stopped her, she might have rushed towards the town.

“Well then, Primme, for now, hide in Noa’s pouch. Also, when we get close to the town, I will make Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear smaller, and we will walk the rest of the way.” (Yuna)

I doubt we could get inside the town with large bears along with us.

Since we did not know the situation in the town, I let Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear stay in their cub form as guards.

After that, we approached the gate of the town with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear in their cub form in our arms.

“Noa, please do as we discussed.” (Yuna)

“...Yes.” (Noa)

Noa responded nervously.

After entering the town, if anyone asked us where we came from, we would just tell them that we came from a nearby village.

We couldn’t say that we were from Crimonia. They probably wouldn’t even know where it was. Moreover, we looked like two kids.

Well, not me...

If I was more mature looking, I might have been able to fool them into thinking I was an adventurer or a merchant or something, but neither Noa nor I looked like adults. Moreover, Noa was a blonde girl, so we didn’t really look like sisters, so we made our background setting being from the same village.

“Will we be able to use guild cards or citizen cards?” (Noa)

“I don’t plan to use cards for now.” (Yuna)

There was a lack of information, so I didn’t want to stand out as much as possible.

I wouldn’t mind using my guild card at the Guild since the guild employee would only have to hold it up to a crystal panel. However, it would be troublesome if town residents found out various things about me that were recorded on my card.

That was why this time, we decided to enter as village girls from a nearby village.
