Chapter 386 Bear-san got caught by Talia-san

<Kuu-n, Kuu-n.>

After receiving the tea leaves of the sacred tree from Mumroot-san and talked about various things, the white bear puppet on my left hand started crying.

It’s the sound of a bear phone. When the phone cried suddenly, it looked as if the bear puppet itself was the one crying. But who is it from? I only know three people who have bear phones, Fina, Shuri, and Ruimin.

[Well then, Mumroot-san. I’ll come to invite you next time.] Yuna

Mumroot-san seemed to be curious about the cry, but I left Mumroot-san and moved to a place where there were no people around. I then, take out the bear phone that is still crying <Kuu-n, Kuu-n>.

[Hello.] Yuna

{Ah, I’m connected.} Fina

Fina’s voice comes out from the bear phone.

[What’s wrong? Did something happened?] Yuna

{I’m sorry. I couldn’t connect at all when I tried to have a conversation with Ruimin-san and Shuri using bear phone. I thought it was broken so used it to connect to Yuna-oneesan.} Fina

[So, you couldn’t connect to Ruimin?] Yuna

{Yes, I couldn’t.} Fina

Apparently, bear phone can only be used via me.

Well, it’s within my expectation. Bear equipment is non-transferable and it’s exclusevely for me only, and the bear gate can only be opened by me as well. Bear phone was created with my magical power, so it may only be possible to use it via me.

If anyone could use it, it would be a very versatile item.

[So where are you now?] Yuna

{Well, Ruimin-san. where is this place?} Fina

{We’re outside of the village.} Ruimin

I can hear Ruimin’s voice from bear phone.

I told them to meet in front of Ruimin’s house. When I came to Ruimin’s house, I already saw them standing there.

[Yuna-oneesan, it’s not broken, right?] Fina

Fina clasps the bear phone and asks anxiously.

[It’s not broken. Maybe it can only connect through me. I didn’t know because I hadn’t used it like that before.] Yuna

[U u~u, that’s too bad then.] Fina

[Well, I’ll tell you if can do something about it.] Yuna

[Okay.] Fina

Fina is a little disappointed.

And so, I said goodbye to Mumroot-san since I think it’s time to leave for the city of Dwarves.

[Ah, I knew it! Yuna-chan is here.] Talia

Someone called out from behind. When I turned around, I found Ruimin’s mother, Talia-san. As usual, I still can’t believe she’s a mother of three children with how young-looking she is.

[When I was walking in the village, I heard that a bear came, so I immediately knew that it was Yuna-chan.] Talia

Talia-san looks happy that her reasoning is correct.

But is it really okay for her to recognize me with just that? Wouldn’t it be dangerous if that person saw a real bear and trying to warn everyone by saying <A bear has come> and <A bear has appeared>. Yet the elves who heard it simply deduced that I have come?

Well, when a real bear appears, they will be screaming, so it should be okay, right? They will, right?

Though I’m worried about the easygoing Talia-san.

[Perhaps that child is Yuna-chan’s younger sister?] Talia

She’s asking about Fina, who is next to me, like she’s trying to deduce something. In the first place, Fina and I are not similar.

[But she’s not dressed as a bear.] Talia

Talia-san tilts her head to the side.

Then, if she’s wearing a bear costume, would that mean she’s my sister?

[No. This is Fina. My life… I am indebted to her.] Yuna

When I looked at Fina and tried to introduce her as my lifesaver, she was glaring daggers at me, so I rephrased it.

[Fina-chan. I’m Talia, Ruimin’s sister. You can call me Talia-oneechan.] Talia

Talia-san said shamelessly.

[Then, you’re Sanya-san’s older sister.] Fina

Fina doesn’t doubt Talia-san’s words.

[Ah, you also know Sanya?] Talia

[Yes.] Fina

Talia-san and Fina are enjoying a normal conversation. Then, Ruimin stops them by getting in between them.

[Mother! Stop it. Fina will really believe it. Fina, she’s not my older sister, she’s my mother.] Ruimin

[Mother?] Fina

Fina was surprised by Ruimin’s words.

Well, it doesn’t feel strange to say that Talia-san’s appearance is an older sister. Therefore, such a lie is easy to deceive anyone.

[You don’t have to expose me that quickly.] Talia

[It’s embarrassing, so please stop it!] Ruimin

Ruimin turns her reddened face and angrily stared at Talia-san.

[Then, I can’t help it now that I got caught. Fina-chan, I apologize for telling a lie, and I have delicious fruits, so let’s eat them together.] Talia

Talia-san grabs Fina’s hand and takes her inside the house.

[Eh, Yuna-oneesan?] Fina

Fina turns around and looks at me, while Talia-san pulling her hand. I shook my head like saying give up and followed Talia-san and Fina into the house. Ruimin comes along with a sigh.

We were pressed into the talk time while eating the fruit that Talia-san gave us.

Ruimin’s father, Artur, is at work, and her younger brother, Lucca, is in the woods and not here right now. So it seems that we were invited to kill time.

[Fina-chan, eat a lot.] Talia

[Thank you.] Fina

We’re eating sweet and sour fruits. It might be delicious to put these fruits in a cake.

[By the way, Yuna-san. I heard from Fina-chan that you’re going to the city of Dwarves.] Ruimin

[Ara, Yuna-chan. You’re going to the city of dwarves?] Talia

Ruimin asks while eating fruit.

[Hey, let’s play a little.] Ruimin

[Maybe after we come back to the elven village.] Yuna

Ruimin got a little disappointed.

[Next time, we’ll come here so you can play with Fina again.] Yuna

It seems that Fina and Ruimin became close friends in a short time.

[It’s a promise then, but I kinda miss the city of Dwarves though.] Ruimin

[Have you been there?] Yuna

Elves in the city of dwarves? Aren’t the elves and the dwarves don’t get along with each other?

[Were you all right that time?] Yuna

[I was with my dad, so I didn’t get lost. I might have been lost if I was alone though…] Ruimin

That’s not what I want to hear.

[Don’t you guys not get along with dwarves, so I was thinking if it’s okay for elves like you to go to the city of dwarves.] Yuna

[Are elves and dwarves on bad terms?] Ruimin

That’s what I’m asking, you know?

[Am I wrong?] Yuna

[I’ve never heard of anything like that. When I went to the city of Dwarves before, everyone was kind to me.] Ruimin

Apparently, my common sense doesn’t work here. In the manga and novels I read, there are many works that elves and dwarves don’t get along with each other. There are also many scenes in movies in which they are in conflict.

[Yuna-san, can I go with you? I’ll show you around the city.] Ruimin

[Ruimin?] Yuna

When I remember seeing Ruimin in the royal capital, I can only think of someone getting lost.

[Ara, that’s a good idea. Ruimin, please also ask for a new frying pan and pot. Also, I want a new kitchen knife. That’s right. I have to ask everyone in the neighborhood too.] Talia

[Mother?] Ruimin

After selfishly declaring so, Talia-san gets up and storms out of the room.

We silently see her off.

[Etto, so this means.] Yuna

What does this mean?

[It looks like I’m going too. I’m sorry about my mother.] Ruimin

Ruimin apologizes.

[Is it okay for you to go with me just like that? Don’t you need to get permission from your father?] Yuna

[That’s okay. He can’t stop mother anyways.] Ruimin

It seems that Ruimin is also having a hard time.

[But a frying pan and a pot?] Yuna

When you think of dwarves, only weapons and armors usually come to mind, but that’s not really the case here.

Gordo-san and Ghazal-san mainly make weapons and armors, so I never noticed it, but they also work on metal processing.

[Fina, should we also buy some for Tirumina-san?] Yuna

Of course, they’re also sold in Crimonia, but if you buy it in the city of Dwarves, it’ll feel like a superior quality.

Besides, there are good things and bad things about frying pans and pots.

Different types of materials will affect the quirks, such as weight, non-stickiness, and good thermal conductivity. There are various types of materials that they are using after all.

It might be a good idea to look around in the city of Dwarves. Yeah, that’s a good idea.

But when I look at Fina, she opens her mouth with a little difficulty.

[Etto, I was also asked by mom.] Fina

[Is that so?] Yuna

[Yes, I was asked for a lot of it.] Fina

As expected of a housewife. It seems that Fina has already been asked.

[Then I should also buy some for the orphanage and Anzu’s shop.] Yuna

[I’ve been asked for that too. She said she wants a big pot for the orphanage.] Fina

So she’s already ahead of me.

But I wonder if the orphanage needs a big pot? Well, if you’re cooking for a huge crowd, a big pot will save you time.

I wonder if I should buy some for myself. If I buy it, I will need to buy as many pots and pans as the number of bear houses. Considering the reserve, I need more. If I put it in a bear box, I can reuse it, but it’s troublesome to put it away after washing it. If possible, I would like to keep it in each bear house at all times.

Talia-san comes back as we talk while eating the fruit that Talia-san has prepared.

[Ruimin. Here’s the list.] Talia

Talia-san gives Ruimin a few sheets of paper. When Ruimin looks at the papers, her expression changes.

[Uh, mother, there’s quite a lot.] Ruimin

When Ruimin put the papers on the table. The names of the orderer were written at the top, and the product name and size were written in details below it, these include frying pans, pots, kitchen knives, and so on. There were so many such papers.

[Because everyone wants it.] Talia

Even though, she looks young and cutesy. She’s actually over 100, right?

[I borrowed an item bag from your grandfather, so it’s okay. And here’s the money.] Talia

With that being said, she gave the item bag and the bag containing the money to Ruimin.

[Grandpa wants a big pot so that everyone can eat together.] Talia

[U u~u, even Grandpa.] Ruimin

Ruimin dropped down on the table.

Apparently, it’s confirmed that Ruimin will go with us.

Author’s Note:

Sorry, I’m late.

A bright red manuscript came and the correction was…

For the time being, I’ve calmed down, but it’s undecided what will happen this month.

If I’m late, I will report it in the postscript.

※That’s why it was decided that Ruimin will go buy cookware together.

There are good and bad things about frying pans.
