Bear-san Fight’s the Slime (3)

“With my current form, I can only carry one more child.”

“Then Fina will be fine, won’t she?”

“Fina?”

The fox’s face turned surprised.

“Kagali-san will carry me and Fina, and we will chase after the grimoire. I will use earth magic to drive the grimoire outside. And finally, Fina will break the grimoire with magic.”

I knew that Fina was practicing magic.

Maybe she could at least break the grimoire.

“She just recently learned magic, didn’t she? Can she do it?”

“I don’t know. Maybe she can at least break some of the magic tools.”

In the name of a temporary retreat, Kagali-san and I ran into the bear house and opened the door to the bear’s transition gate.

Incidentally, Kagali-san was back in her original juvenile form.

“Yuna Onee-chan!”

“Yuna, Kagali!”

“Thank goodness. You came back safe and sound.”

The three of them come running up to us, looking worried.

“So, what happened to the Slime?”

Kagali-san and I explained briefly to the three of them.

“Fina, can you help me with that?”

“I’m going to use magic to…”

Fina said anxiously.

Seeing Fina, Carol interjected.

“I’m not good enough, am I?”

Carol asked, but Kagali-san looked at Carol’s chest.

“You can go if you shave off that big thing on your chest.”

“Kagali-san, that’s terrible.”

Maybe, Kagali-san…you were not trying to say that because there were not any heavy things on my and Fina’s chests. It’s okay to carry them around, are you?

“It has to be a child, right?”

“That’s the best I can do with my current form.”

With conventional powers, it would be possible, apparently.

“I know Fina is practicing magic.”

She could use earth magic.

Now if she could only hit it.

“If you can’t, I’ll think of another way.”

If Fina did not want to do it, we would not force her. There must still be another way.

But Fina looked as if she was making up her mind, and then she looked straight at me.

“…If I can be of help to Yuna Onee-chan, I’ll do my best.”

“Are you sure? It’s dangerous. Of course, I will protect Fina first and foremost.”

“I want to be useful to Yuna Onee-chan!”

The quiet Fina raised her voice, which was unusual for her.

“Yuna, since Fina has gone this far, why don’t you just let her do it? You’re the one who asked her to do it in the first place. Then you should take responsibility.”

Mia had a point.

I had asked her to do it, but what I was doing was contradictory in terms of keeping Fina in a safe place.

“Well then, Fina, can you take care of it?”

“Yes!”

I asked again, and Fina nodded happily.

“I’m going to leave, Mia and the others here for a while.”

“I’m going too, I can’t stay in this room while Fina tries to do her best.”

“It’s not safe.”

“Yuna, Fina and Kagali are going to break magic tools, right?”

“Yes, we are.”

“I believe in you, so please.”

Mia smiled.

“I understand. But you mustn’t leave Swaying Bear’s side.”

“Of course, Swaying Bear, take care of me.”

“Kuu~n.”

──────Fina Perspective──────

Bear-san’s door closes.

Yuna Onee-chan left us again and went off to fight.

This was the second time.

The first time was when the monsters gathered on the island of Targui.

That time, she left me, Shuri, and Shia-sama in this safe place and went off to fight alone.

“There is no window, is there?”

Mia Onee-chan wandered around the room.

There wasn’t a single window in the walls.

“Is it safe here?”

Carol Onee-chan asked.

This place was a room under Yuna Onee-chan’s house in Crimonia.

Slime would never come inside.

“This place is fine, Mia Onee-chan and Carol Onee-chan, would you like something to drink?”

“Well, I’ll have one.”

“Thank you, Fina-san.”

I took out a cup of tea from the refrigerator, put it on the table, and they both sat down on chairs. I sat down and drank the tea. The cold tea goes down my throat.

“By the way, the door is not appropriate for the house.”

Mia Onee-Chan said so as well as she looked at Bear-san’s door.

It was called Bear-san’s transition gate, and it’s a door that can go far away. So it was a little different from a normal door.

“I hope you two are okay.”

“Yuna Onee-chan is strong.”

“She’s incredibly strong, even though she’s dressed so weirdly.”

Looking at Yuna Onee-chan’s outfit, no one thinks she was strong.

“Since Yuna isn’t here, I have to ask, where did Fina and the others come from?”

“That’s…”

I have an idea where we might be, but I couldn’t tell you about this room because I promised Yuna Onee-chan I wouldn’t tell her.

“I knew it, I can’t tell you.”

“I see, sorry for asking.”

“It’s okay. I just thought that if the three of you are from somewhere far away, I would like to go there too.”

I wondered how they would feel if they knew we were in Crimonia.

If I hadn’t met Yuna Onee-chan, I wouldn’t have believed that there was such a magical tool.

Many things have happened since I met Yuna Onee-chan.

She saved me from being attacked by a Wolf. She cured my mother’s illness. Then he showed me the royal city, the city where Misa-sama lives, the sea with lots of water, and the desert with no water and only sand. He also took me to the city of the dwarves and the village of Elf.

Monsters attacked us everywhere, but Yuna Onee-chan was there to protect me.

Whenever there was danger, I was always in a safe place, waiting for Yuna Onee-chan’s return.

That was why I was so happy when I learned that I could use magic.

I thought that I could help Yuna Onee-chan one day.

But Yuna Onee-chan was very strong and would do just fine without my help.

I wanted to help Yuna Onee-chan as much as possible, so I used my light magic in the basement.

But even if I did not use light magic, Yuna Onee-chan already placed tools that could use light magic in this place.

In fact, I was of no use to Yuna Onee-chan.

“What are you looking so bitter?”

Mia Onee-chan said to me as I was thinking.

I wonder if I look that bitter.

“So, what’s wrong? Are you worried about Yuna?”

“I’m always getting help from Yuna Onee-chan, so I wanted to know if she thinks I’m in her way.

“You were thinking about that?”

Mia Onee-chan and Carol Onee-chan, who heard the story, look stunned.

“Yuna-san doesn’t think of Fina-san as a hindrance, she looked happy when she saw Fina-san using light magic.”

“I can tell that Yuna is very protective of Fina, even though we just met her. She is always looking out for Fina when she eats and when she is in her room.”

“Above all, she trusts Fina-san, which is why she entrusted us with your care. You see, when she left the room, she said, ‘Please take care of the rest,’ and I think that’s because she trusts Fina-san.”

“And I don’t know where you’re coming from. If you thought you were a hindrance and a drag, she wouldn’t have brought you here.”

Yuna Onee-chan always invited me to join her.

That always made me happy.

But when it came to danger, I was always protected.

I was sad that I was so helpless.

“But someday, I would like to be useful to Yuna Onee-chan.”

“Fina is still a child, she’ll just have to work harder from now on.”

“Besides, sometimes the best thing you can do is to be with us.”

Carol Onee-chan looked at Mia Onee-chan with kind eyes.

“So you can stay with Yuna-san until she doesn’t want to.”

“No, you can’t stay with her until she doesn’t want to.”

Mia Onee-chan laughed, and Carol Onee-chan laughed as well.

“Mia Onee-chan, Carol Onee-chan, thank you.”

After having the two of them listen to me, I lost a little bit of the fuzziness in my mind.

Yuna Onee-chan taught me magic. Let’s practice more and more and do our best.

After a while, Bear-san’s door opened, and Yuna Onee-chan and her Kagali Onee-chan came in and asked for my help breaking the magical tools.

At first, I was confused, but I was happy to know I could help Yuna Onee-chan.

So I decided to help Yuna Onee-chan, even though I was a little scared.

──────Yuna Point of View──────

Just in case, I changed into a white bear and went outside.

“Is there a reason you’re a white bear?”

“When I wear it, it increases my magic power and magic recovery.”

Having already gotten tired of hiding things, I answered Mia’s question.

“It was such an amazing outfit. I thought it was just Yuna’s hobby.”

“Me too.”

Carol agreed with Mia’s words.

Most people probably think I wear my bear outfit because I like it.

No, I didn’t dislike the bear outfit. But I don’t consider them as battle armor.

“You’re here, let’s start then. Take care of my clothes.”

When Kagali-san arrived at the top of the barrier, she removes her clothes and gives them to Mia. She then transforms into a large fox.

“I’ve heard stories, but it’s amazing to see it with my own eyes.”

“Well then, you two get on.”

I hop on top of Kagali-san.

Swaying Bear, who was watching me, squealed.

Apparently, he didn’t like me to ride on anyone but either of the two bears.

But Swaying Bear could not fly, so it could not be helped this time.

A bear that can’t fly is just a bear.

“Fina, you ride with me, as well.”

“Yes.”

“Unlike the Swaying Bear, you have to hold on tight, or you’ll fall off, so be careful.”

Fina rides Kagali-san, hugging my back.

“It’s so heavy.”

I’m not fat, and neither is Fina.

“Can you fly?”

“Well, just barely.”

Kagali-san slowly floated up, and Fina hugged me tightly.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes, it’s my first time flying.”

Like me, Fina had never experienced flying in the sky before.

I had seen images from the sky on TV and the Internet, so I could imagine what it would be like, but for Fina, it was an unknown experience.

“If you are scared, will you stop?”

“No, I’m not scared. I want to help Yuna Onee-chan, so I’ll do my best.”

“Okay, when this is over, I’ll take you for a walk in the sky as a reward. So, for now, we must defeat Slime.”

“Yes!”

Alright, let’s do this.

I would like a reward for a walk in the sky too.

When Fina gets invited, I’ll also ask her to take me for a walk in the sky.
