Bear-san, Making Fina Use Her Birthday Present.
“Speaking of which, Fina. You have the tickets to go out with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear that I gave you for your birthday, right?” (Yuna)
“Yes, I have kept it safe and secured.” (Fina)
“No, use it.” (Yuna)
As I had imagined it, it would stay in her storage forever.
So I will force her to use it.
“Tirumina-san. Can I borrow Fina for a few days?” (Yuna)
“Yes, of course.” (Tirumina)
As usual, permission is granted immediately.
“Well then, I’ll be borrowing Fina for a while.” (Yuna)
“U~u, again, you just decide on your own.” (Fina)
No, if we don’t decide for you, Fina, you will be hesitant, and the conversation won’t progress, so it can’t be helped.
In the case of Fina, it’s better to be more forceful.
“Then, since we don’t have any magic practice, starting tomorrow, we’re going out with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.” (Yuna)
When I said that, Shuri opened her mouth enviously.
“U~u, Oneechan, you have it nice. Yuna-oneechan taught you magic, and you’re going out with Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan. I also want to go out with Yuna-oneechan.” (Shuri)
It was true that I had been spending a lot of time with Fina recently. When Shuri gave me such a sad look, I was reluctant to leave her behind.
“Shuri, don’t be selfish. This is your sister’s birthday present.” (Tirumina)
Tirumina-san appeases Shuri.
“Yuna-oneechan, isn’t it okay to bring Shuri with us?” (Fina)
“ Well, I mean, it would be nice if Tirumina-san gave permission.” (Yuna)
Even if I say yes, the final permission comes from the parent, Tirumina-san.
“Mom……” (Fina)
When Fina looked at Tirumina-san, Tirumina-san looked at Shuri.
“Do you promise to be a good girl and listen to what Yuna-chan and your sister tells you to?” (Tirumina)
“Yes, I will.” (Shuri)
“You won’t slip away from the two and go somewhere on your own?” (Tirumina)
“No, I won’t.” (Shuri)
“Mom, don’t worry because I’m watching her closely.” (Fina)
“I’ll be watching over Shuri, too.” (Yuna)
“Both of you are sweet. Shuri, don’t cause trouble for them.” (Tirumina)
“Yes!” (Shuri)
With Tirumina-san’s permission, we decided that Shuri would also go with us.
There was only one person, however, who was listening with a blank stare.
“Why are you not asking me?” (Gentz)
I heard Gentz-san muttering in a small voice.
Because Tirumina-san holds a higher position than you, Gentz-san, I wouldn’t say that to the person himself, though.
The next day. We lined up in front of the bear gate.
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were also there.
“Now then, Lady Fina, may I have your ticket, please?” (Yuna)
I try to look a bit like the receptionist-neesan, and Fina and Shuri laugh at me.
“Yes, right here.” (Fina)
Fina giggled and handed me a piece of paper.
When I received the piece of paper I gave her on her birthday, I stamped a picture of Fina and Shuri riding on Swaying Bear. It’s the ticket to go out with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.
“Yuna-oneesan, where are we going?” (Fina)
“It’s not a round-the-world trip, but I thought I’d take you back to some of the places I’ve been to.” (Yuna)
Besides, there were places Fina had never been before.
“First stop, the Elven Forest.” (Yuna)
I opened the bear gate in my home and connected it to the bear gate in the elf forest.
When I opened the doors of the bear gate, there stood a smiling girl with light green hair and slightly long ears.
“Yuna-san, I’ve been waiting for you.” (Ruimin)
“Ruimin. Have you been waiting for us?” (Yuna)
Right, there was an elf girl, Ruimin, in front of us.
Yesterday, I wanted to know about Ruimin and Mumroot-san’s plans, so I used my bear phone to confirm with Ruimin. After confirming they had no plans, I told Ruimin we were coming.
“I knew you were coming, so I came to pick you up, Fina-chan. It’s been a while. And Shuri, right?” (Ruimin)
“Ruimin-san, it’s been a while.” (Fina)
“Un, Ruimin-neechan.” (Shuri)
Even though she had only met her once, she seemed to remember her name. She’s better than me, who tends to forget people’s names.
“Also, it’s been a while Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin patted Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear’s faces. Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear also looked happy.
“Yuna-san, you’re still dressed as a bear.” (Ruimin)
Well, this is my everyday attire.
“I didn’t expect you to be there to greet us, though.” (Yuna)
“I woke up early and waited all day.” (Ruimin)
No way, you’re not waiting here from sunrise, are you?
“But I didn’t think there was a bear door here.” (Ruimin)
“We don’t know what will happen in the sacred tree barrier. So I moved it last night.” (Yuna)
After confirming Mumroot-san and Ruimin’s schedule, I set up the bear gate outside the sacred tree’s barrier late last night. As a guide, I must make the proper preparations ahead of time.
“But thanks to that, I was able to wait in front of the door.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin seemed happy to surprise us.
“Happy birthday, Fina. I will show you around the village today.” (Ruimin)
“Ah, thank you. Did you tell her, Yuna-oneesan?” (Fina)
Fina timidly looked at me.
When I talked with her on my bear phone, I told Ruimin that I would take Fina to the elf village as one of her birthday presents.
“Yes, but was it bad?” (Yuna)
“It’s embarrassing.” (Fina)
Fina looked a little embarrassed. But she also looked happy.
“Now then, let me show you around my village.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin looked like she wanted to ride on Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, so I let her ride in front of me.
“Fluffy and comfortable.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin embraced Hugging Bear as she lay down forward.
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear looked up then they started walking.
“But my village on Fina’s birthday? My village has nothing, unlike the royal capital.” (Ruimin)
What are you talking about?
“Ruimin, you’re in this village, right?” (Yuna)
“……Wait, me?” (Ruimin)
“I thought Fina would want to see you.” (Yuna)
Ruimin and Fina were good friends. They even used to talk to each other on the bear phone. So I let them meet for the first time in a while.
“Yes, I wanted to meet her. That’s why I’m grateful to you, Yuna-oneechan, for bringing me here. It’s the best birthday present.” (Fina)
“I am happy to see you too, Fina.” (Ruimin)
It’s good that they are close friends.
“Besides, there are some nice scenic spots in this village, aren’t there?” (Yuna)
When I first came here, I built a bear house near a waterfall. The scenery at the top was also beautiful.
For Ruimin, perhaps she has lived in the area for so long that its beautiful scenery has become so routine that she does not appreciate its value.
The city has its urban beauty, and nature has its natural beauty.
“You’re right. There are more beautiful sceneries out there. I will guide you.” (Ruimin)
Ruimin suggested we visit some of her recommended spots before going to the village.
“Aren’t we keeping Mumroot-san waiting for us?” (Yuna)
“If we get there by noon, we’ll be fine. Besides, Yuna-san. If you go to the village, you will be stuck there surrounded by children.” (Ruimin)
Indeed, that would be the case. I played with many children there. Some of them adored me, but Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were more popular. Considering that, I can’t move easily whenever I go to that village.
“So before we go to the village, I’ll take you to the places I recommend.” (Ruimin)
With a quick change of plans, we’re on the move.
Since we’re riding on Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, it shouldn’t take too long, so we should be fine.
“Beautiful.” (Fina)
“Huge.” (Shuri)
A large, beautiful lake spreads out before us.
“The lake at Land of Harmony was beautiful, but this lake is also beautiful.” (Yuna)
“Yes, it’s beautiful.” (Fina)
The water is crystal clear, and the lake has a mysterious feel that makes sense when it’s called the elven lake.
“If you put an axe in it, will it turn into a golden axe?” (Yuna)
Like a beautiful water goddess with an axe will emerge from that lake or something?
“No way. Is there even such a lake?” (Ruimin)
“It’s a fairy tale from the place where I used to live.” (Yuna)
But wasn’t that story about a river, not a lake (pond)?
I told them that fairy tale.
“Such a fairy tale.” (Fina)
“I didn’t know that either.” (Ruimin)
“Well, it’s limited to where I lived.” (Yuna)
It’s a story from another world. So there’s no way they would have heard about it.
But we’re in a different world, so instead of a goddess, there may likely be water spirits instead of a goddess.
“Still, good luck comes to those who are honest.” (Yuna)
However, the reality is not so sweet. It’s said that good people are susceptible. I have heard stories of people being cheated out of their money because they trusted someone.
Even so, I would like Fina and the others to see their dreams into reality.
“Then I must be a good girl because I got to meet Yuna-san.” (Ruimin)
“So did I.” (Fina)
“Me too~” (Shuri)
“Why, is that?” (Yuna)
“If I hadn’t met Yuna-san in Capital, I would have been in a lot of trouble. It’s my greatest fortune to have met Yuna-san.” (Ruimin)
“I’m glad to meet Yuna-oneechan too.” (Shuri)
Even Shuri followed Ruimin’s lead and said something like that.
“Yes, I’m glad I was also able to meet Yuna-oneesan. If I hadn’t met Yuna-oneesan, I would have died. And my Mom and Shuri would have been left alone too.” (Fina)
That’s true. But when she repeated it, somehow, it felt embarrassing.
The words Fina said that she might have died if I hadn’t been there are the heaviest.
When I transmigrated into this world, I went in the direction of Fina without realizing it. That first step saved Fina and became the starting point of my life in this world.
If I had walked in the opposite direction, I might have met someone else and had experienced a completely different otherworldly life. I might have saved someone else and been with that person instead. It’s unthinkable now.
Although I wonder if that’s a good or bad thing.
Still, there’s one thing I can say.
“I was also lucky to meet Fina, Shuri, and Ruimin.” (Yuna)
But the fact is, I feel happy right now.
I am content with the present, even if there is other happiness and enjoyment.
