Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Chapter 1286

Chapter 554 - Bear-san, Catches Reedent

Bear-san, Catches Reedent

After the discussion was over and as we were about to leave, the guildmaster turned his attention to me.

“Excuse me, but the girl dressed as a bear over there, Yuna-san, right?”

“You know me?” (Yuna)

I was a little surprised when my name was called.

“I’ve heard about you from the lord, Leonardo-sama, and his father, Gran-sama. You are the girl dressed as a bear who, rode alone to the Salvado estate, rescued the daughter of the Fahrengram family that was held captive by the Salvado family, and destroyed them. When you come to town, I have been asked to treat you with the utmost courtesy.” (Guildmaster)

Perhaps the man from earlier and the staff who showed us to the room didn’t say anything because they were told by the lord, Leonardo-san, and the former lord, Gran-san?

When I think about it, those two were involved in the response at the city gates.

“As the new Guildmaster, I want to thank you for preventing the further corruption of the Commercial Guild.” (Guildmaster)

“I didn’t do it for the commercial guild.” (Yuna)

I was just angry because Misa was kidnapped and Fina and Noa were hurt. I didn’t do it for the sake of the commercial guild. So it wasn’t something for the commercial guild to thank me for.

“It was also thanks to you, Yuna-san, that I got the job of guildmaster.” (Guildmaster)

“Me?” (Yuna)

“And don’t forget that I recommended you.” (Mylene)

“Of course. I am also grateful to you, Mylene-san.” (Guildmaster)

According to the story, it seems that it is not easy to become a guild master even if you want to.

That’s right.

If a new city (town) cannot be built, the number of new guild masters will not increase.

Even for replacement, the current guildmaster would have to quit first before he could be replaced.

So, it seems that the guildmaster was thanking me for causing the former one to be replaced.

But I didn’t know that.

Maybe it’s mainly my fault, but looking at Mylene-san who seems to be busy working, I think being a guildmaster would be troublesome.

Even for Cliff, the higher the status of the inhabitants of this world, the busier they were. I don’t know why you would want to be in such a position.

That being said, it’s better than a boss who sat on his laurels all day long and played around while dumping all the work on his subordinates.

I said that myself, yet it pierced my own heart.

Am I a bad boss for leaving the store to Morin-san and the kids to take care of the kokekko, while I go to different places to play?

“Mylene-san, you’re not surprised, so perhaps you knew of it?” (Guildmaster)

“Cliff asked me if I could find a trustworthy person to be the guildmaster in Sheleen. I, for my part, would rather have a useful person than a useless commercial guildmaster from a neighboring city, so I decided to make you the guildmaster.” (Mylene)

So that brings us to the letter of recommendation she mentioned earlier.

“Well, it was a lot of trouble, but because Yuna-chan brought down the Salvado family, things became easier.” (Mylene)

Mylene-san smiled at me.

But that smile scares me.

We then rented a vacant room in the commercial guild and stayed overnight.

In the evening, Blitz and his harem came over and were told where Reedent’s store was located, and they went straight to watch the store.

The next day, we left the city before sunrise and went to the forest where Jade-san and his party were hiding.

“Sleepy.” (Yuna)

I fell on Swaying Bear’s back. I’m not good at getting up early, but I’m sleepy when I wake up before sunrise.

“Swaying Bear, wake me up when we arrive.” (Yuna)

`Ku~u ~ n’

“Yuna-chan, you’re going to fall.” (Mylene)

Mylene-san, who was riding on Hugging Bear, warned me worriedly.

You won’t fall off from Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear even if you fell asleep, so it’s okay.

Beside Mylene-san, who was paying attention to me, there was Sheleen’s Guildmaster, who was riding a horse.

This was so that when the trap was sprung, Reedent wouldn’t be able to make excuses. With two Guildmasters present, there’s no way he would be able to run away.

I didn’t think it was necessary to go that far, but there were some merchants who had benefited from the toad and were antagonistic to the new lord’s ways. So we were going to crush these bad guys thoroughly.

“Where are they?” (Mylene)

“Swaying Bear, do you know?” (Yuna)

We went to the forest where we were supposed to meet. If I remember correctly, he said that there was a big rock just a little further into the forest.

But there’s an easier way to join them than to look for that rock.

When Swaying Bear cried “Kuu~n“, without hesitation, he entered the forest and walked to the place where Jade-san and his party were. After a while, a large rock came into view, and Jade-san and his party were also there besides the rock.

“Mylene-san, Yuna-san, I was waiting for you. Who is that man over there?” (Jade)

“…Guildmaster.” (Miguel)

Miguel, the one watching over the bandits, opened his mouth before Mylene-san could introduce the person to us.

He didn’t know the face of Crimonia’s guildmaster, but he knew of Sheleen’s guildmaster.

“My name is Rokochi, the commerce guild’s guildmaster of Sheleen.” (Rokochi) (ローコチ)

The guild master introduced himself to Jade-san and his party, then looked at Miguel.

“You are Miguel, the bandit of the merchant named Reedent, aren’t you? You seem to know who I am.” (Rokochi)

”Yeah, I at least know the new Guildmaster’s face.” (Miguel)

“Then let’s have a quick talk. I have heard about the incident from Mylene-san of Crimonia’s Commercial Guild. If you help us catch Reedent, I, the guildmaster of Sheleen’s Commercial Guild, promise to reduce your penalty.” (Rokochi)

“Really?” (Miguel)

“It’s up to you whether you believe it or not.” (Rokochi)

“No, I believe you. If I don’t, I will fall down together with Reedent-sama. So, if the two guildmasters promised me, I shall believe it. If you deceive me, however, I will resent you in my grave.” (Miguel)

“I keep my promises. Besides, it makes no sense to punish a small fry like you. Our aim is the big fish, we don’t have time with you.” (Rokochi)

“Small fry…” (Miguel)

“You don’t even have a store and you are at the mercy of Reedent, you are small fry. If you don’t want to be called as such, work hard, own your own store, and contribute to the commercial guild. And only then shall I apologize for calling you small fry.” (Rokochi)

“Pfft~, it’s a promise. So what should I do?” (Miguel)

Miguel laughed at the Guildmaster’s words, changed his thoughts, and looked serious.

“You don’t have to do anything. If you do something poorly, he may become suspicious, so just having a normal conversation would be enough. You need to be in the position of a subordinate who still trusts Reedent.” (Mylene)

“Got it. That’ll be easy.” (Miguel)

Then, as we were preparing for when Reedent came. I put down the bag of cotton.

It’s my cotton, but we have to make sure that the merchant Reedent received it.

Well, of course. Catching him red-handed would be solid evidence. So, having finished my preparations, I hid behind the rock.

“It’s nice to have a place to hide.” (Yuna)

“I guess they didn’t want the handover to be seen. I don’t think even Reedent would expect that to be a bad thing.” (Mylene)

I, Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear, Mylene-san, Guildmaster, Mel-san, Senia-san, and I hid behind the rock, while Jade-san and Toya hid behind the trees.

It’s hard for me to hide.

It’s not because I’m fat. It’s because of my clothes.

Then, after waiting for a while, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear cried “Kuu-n.”. When I checked my detection skills, I saw a human response.

“Did he come by any chance?” (Mylene)

“Seems like it.” (Yuna)

“Really, Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan are amazing.” (Mylene)

“Yeah, very helpful.” (Senia)

Mylene raised her arm to signal to Jade-san and the others. Jade-san saw the signal and raised his arm to signal back.

We lie low and wait.

After a while, we heard the sound of someone stepping on the grass.

“Reedent-sama, I’ve been expecting you.” (Miguel)

Miguel talked to the person who came.

“So, what is it this time?” (Reedent)

I’m behind a rock, so I can only hear parts of their conversation.

“It’s High-quality cotton. I think it will sell well to the aristocrats when made as cushions, comforters, and such.” (Miguel)

It’s mine. If you get it dirty, you’ll pay for it.

“Well done.” (Reedent)

“Thank you very much.” (Miguel)

Yeah, you did a good job of letting him steal my stuff.

“And what about the money to pay the bandits?” (Miguel)

“That won’t be necessary.” (Reedent)

“What do you mean by that?” (Miguel)

“The Adventurers’ Guild and the Commercial Guild have made their move. They will be subjugated soon.” (Reedent)

“Then my part is over. Now you will allow me to have the store as you promised, right?” (Miguel)

“That’s right. You will have to do your best at the store.” (Reedent)

Are? You were abandoning the bandits, but you will keep your promise to Miguel?

Mylene-san said that he might be betrayed and killed, but it seems her expectations were off.

They said they would get him on murder charges as well and make sure he couldn’t get away with it, but it looks like it would be a failure.

Mel-san and Jade-san were exchanging some kind of signal beside me as I was in thought.

“He said he’d try to get close because it looked like it’s getting dangerous.” (Mel)

She explained to us in a low voice.

What’s the danger?

As I was about to ask, a voice came from the other side of the rock.

“What the hell!” (Reedent)

“Reedent-sama, you tried to kill me.” (Miguel)

Did Reedent try to kill Miguel?

I can’t tell what’s going on from where I am.

As I wondered about it, Mylene started walking, so I followed her.

“Miguel, what’s going on? Did you betray me?” (Reedent)

Jade-san was twisting the arm of a man in his late 30s. I looked at the ground and saw the fallen knife.

Did he perhaps try to kill Miguel with a knife?

“No, he didn’t. He made a deal with me.” (Mylene)

“Why is there a Commercial Guild staff here?” (Reedent)

Reedent glared at Mylene-san and asked.

“I heard everything you just said and did on the handover site.” (Mylene)

“What are you talking about? Miguel!” (Reedent)

“I made a deal with him and he gave me the location of the handover.” (Mylene)

“Miguel!” (Reedent)

Reedent tried to attack Miguel, but Jade-san twisted Reedent’s arm, so Reedent’s face contorted in pain.

Mylene-san instructed Jade-san to tie him up so he couldn’t move, and with the help of Toya, Jade-san tied the man up.

“You betrayed me.” (Reedent)

Reedent glared at Miguel furiously.

“It was you, Reedent-sama, who betrayed me. If you had instructed me to let the bandits go and told me to take charge of the store, you could have been given some leniency.” (Miguel)

Well, we promised him that, but Miguel looked at the fallen knife. This wasn’t an extenuating circumstance.

However, Reedent still tried to blame Miguel for this incident.

“What are you talking about? All of you, do you believe the words of a former bandit?” (Reedent)

Reedent appealed to those of us who were around.

But we’re not stupid enough to believe him.

“Of course, I believe him. I know your reputation and your current situation.” (Mylene)

“What are you saying, staff member girl?” (Reedent)

“I haven’t introduced myself, have I? I am Mylene, Guildmaster of Crimonia’s Commercial Guild.” (Mylene)

“Crimonia’s guild master? Stop lying!” (Reedent)

“I guarantee that.” (Rokochi)

The Sheleen’s Guildmaster, who had been waiting for the right moment, appeared on the scene.

“Gi, guildmaster!” (Reedent)

Miguel knew about it, so it’s not strange for Reedent to be aware of it.

“I was surprised that you knew who I was. I thought you didn’t know me because I am the new guildmaster. We will thoroughly investigate your store and house under my authority.” (Rokochi)

The Guildmaster smiled.
