Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Chapter 458

Chapter 454 - Bear-san, Makes A Promise

“Okay, I’ll check it out. Just give me a minute.” (Yuna)

I tried to leave the room.

“Where are you going?” (Kagali)

“I’m going to check with Mumuroot-san” (Yuna)

“How can we be sure? Are we going to head to Mumuroot’s place now?” (Kagali)

Hmmm, I’m going to check it on my bearphone, but I’m curious how people normally do it.

“Not really, but the way we contact each other is confidential too, you know?” (Yuna)

“What, you don’t trust us? We’ll keep your secret.” (Kagali)

“Right, I promised.” (Sakura)

Shimasu” (Shinobu)*

Is it my imagination, or does Shinobu seem to be the only one who speaks casually?

But it’s a hassle to be pursued later or asked a lot of questions, so I also keep in mind the contract magic.

I took out my bearphone and called Ruimin. After a while, I heard Ruimin’s voice coming from the bearphone.

‘Yuna-san?’ (Ruimin)

“Do you have a minute?” (Yuna)

‘Yes, it’s okay. What’s up?’ (Ruimin)

Ruimin asked in a lazy voice from the bearphone.

“I’d like to see Mumuroot-san, is it okay if I go now?” (Yuna)

‘My grandpa? I’m sure it’s fine. We’re fishing right now.’ (Ruimin)

So they’re out fishing somewhere.

‘Oh right, do you eat fish too, Yuna-san? I just caught a big fish.’ (Ruimin)

While the members over here were worried anxiously about the giant snake ‘Orochi’, I could hear the joyful voice of Ruimin from the bearphone. Ruimin has always been so cheerful and happy.

“That’s fine, too. Then can you tell Mumuroot-san that I’m coming to see him now?” (Yuna)

‘Yes, I understand. we’ll go home now.’ (Ruimin)

“Sorry. But, if you could, could you tell him to come over to the sacred tree?” (Yuna)

‘The sacred tree?’ (Ruimin)

“Also, sorry about this, but there was some contract magic that you and Mumuroot-san had before, right? Can you ask Mumuroot-san to prepare that for me?” (Yuna)

‘The contract magic?’ (Ruimin)

“Yes, the one where if someone tells my secret, they will ‘die’.” (Yuna)

I emphasized the word “die” and glanced at Shinobu.

‘Oh, it’s the contract that would make someone die of pain if they told anyone about Yuna-san, that one? Do you want to make a contract with someone?’ (Ruimin)

“Yes, I have to tell them my secret, but there may be one person here who might tattle.” (Yuna)

I glanced at Shinobu again.

“So, can you prepare a contract spell that makes someone ‘die’ if they blab?” (Yuna)

‘Okay. I’ll tell Grandpa and have him prepare it right away.’ (Ruimin)

The sound of Ruimin’s voice coming from the bearphone was still cheerful. Even though she was talking about someone going to die.

“Sorry to disturb you on your fishing day.” (Yuna)

‘I can go fishing anytime I want. I’m more than happy to hear from you, Yuna-san.’ (Ruimin)

“I’ll see you then.” (Yuna)

I hung up the bearphone.

Now, all we have to do is get to where Mumuroot-san is and we’re set.

“I’m curious about the fact that you were looking at me while saying something disturbing, but what was the voice coming from that strange tool?” (Shinobu)

“It was a pretty girl’s voice.” (Sakura)

“Aren’t you supposed to be talking to Mumuroot?” (Kagali)

“The voice you just heard just now is from Mumuroot-san’s granddaughter.” (Yuna)

“He’s married and has a granddaughter?” (Kagali)

“He has three grandchildren. But I don’t know how many kids he has.” (Yuna)

If he had other offspring, he would have even more grandchildren.

“Other than that, I’ll ask what everyone wants to know? What is that bear-shaped thing?” (Shinobu)

Everyone’s eyes are drawn to the bearphone on my hand.

“That’s a cute bear.” (Sakura)

“Foxes are prettier.” (Kagali)

‘ ‘Ku~u ~ n’ ’

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear squealed in rebuttal to Kagali-san’s words.

“I love bears.” (Yuna)

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear looked happy at my words.

“So, what’s that?” (Shinobu)

Shinobu went back to the topic and stared at my bearphone.

“It’s a magical device that allows you to talk to people at a very far distance.” (Yuna)

“You have such a magic tool? Then, that means I can report immediately wherever I am? I want it too.” (Shinobu)

Shinobu tried to reach for the bearphone, so I put it away in the bear box to hide it.

Aw ~” (Shinobu)

“I’m afraid I’m the only one who can use it.” (Yuna)

“Is that so? U~u, if I had such a useful magic tool, my work would be a lot easier.” (Shinobu)

Shinobu looked sad, but even if I gave one to Shinobu as a gift, she could only talk to me.

But still, as expected, it’s all about work for a ninja, right?

“But, Yuna-sama. You said earlier that you were going to meet him, but how are you going to meet Mumuroot-sama? Could it be that he is in a place close to here?” (Sakura)

“What is that Mumuroot around here somewhere?!” (Kagali)

Sakura’s words cause Kagali-san to get up.

“He’s not here. He’s somewhere far away, I think.” (Yuna)

I don’t know how far Targui traveled, but I don’t think we’re anywhere near the elven village.

“So how do you propose we go see him?” (Sakura)

By the bear gate. But first, I need to check something.

“I just want to make sure that it’s okay to bring Mumuroot-san to the island. Men lose their strength and can’t move when they enter, right?” (Yuna)

There’s a barrier on this island that prohibits men from entering. There’s no point in bringing Mumuroot-san here if he can’t move.

“It’s okay, that is, if that Mumuroot that you know is the same as the Mumuroot in my story. As I said before, it was Mumuroot who created the ward that sealed the serpent, and that ward contains Mumuroot’s magic power. While the wards are filled with Mumuroot’s magic power, I simply overlapped a magic circle to ward off men. If it’s the same person as the magic contained in the warding, it won’t affect him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to get in. I have been waiting for more than a hundred years for Mumuroot to come.” (Kagali)

Over a hundred years ago, was it possible to hold such romantic feelings that long?

Kagali-san has good proportions, just like me in the future. It would not be surprising if something happened between her and Mumuroot-san.

But Mumuroot-san has a wife, children, and grandchildren. But I guess it’s safe to say that it happened before he got married?

“So it’s okay to bring Mumuroot-san along then?” (Yuna)

“Ah, no problem. Anyone who worked on that ward can enter, including Mumuroot. But I think Mumuroot is the only one who’s still alive.” (Kagali)

People can’t live as long as elves. That’s why the only person who can enter the wards will be Mumuroot-san.

“So, Yuna-sama, how will you bring Mumuroot-sama here?” (Sakura)

“This one is my true secret. Since this time, many people’s lives are at stake, and if Mumuroot-san is here, there is a chance that we can manage, right? So I’ll tell you this secret too, but as I said before, please don’t tell anyone. If you’re true to your words, I want you to do contract magic.” (Yuna)

“Are you saying that if I tell anyone about Yuna-sama’s secret, I will die?” (Sakura)

“Yeah, it’ll turn into a much bigger problem when certain people find out.” (Yuna)

“As I said earlier, I will not tell anyone. But if that’s what assures you, then I will accept the contract magic.” (Sakura)

“Me too, I’ll make any kind of deal if you can bring Mumuroot to me.” (Kagali)

Sakura and Kagali-san did not even bother to think about it and agreed to the contract magic that I said would make them ‘die’.

“Are you sure about this? I’m telling you, you could die.” (Yuna)

“I don’t care. I’m not going to tell anyone in the first place, so I won’t die.” (Sakura)

“I am not a woman with such a loose mouth.” (Kagali)

They’re not afraid of the contract because they both feel that they will never speak of it.

Then everyone’s gaze turned to Shinobu who kept remaining silent.

“I don’t mind it. Yuna saved my life. Yuna is the one who will save this country. So if you want me to shut up, I won’t tell anyone, no matter who asks. If they want me to talk, I’ll die first.” (Shinobu)

“Are you sure you want to do this?” (Yuna)

“My life belongs to you, Yuna.” (Shinobu)

Shinobu held her heart with her right hand.

“I don’t want your life. I just want you to shut up.” (Yuna)

After making everyone a promise, I pulled out the bear gate.

“A door came out.” (Kagali)

“It’s a bear.” (Sakura)

“Bear” (Shinobu)

The three of them looked at the bear gate and gave out their impression.

“Opening this gate will lead you to the village where Mumuroot-san lives.” (Yuna)

“Then Mumuroot is behind this door…….” (Kagali)

Kagali-san tried to open the gate.

“I’m the only one who can open that door.” (Yuna)

“Is that so?” (Kagali)

“It’s the same with the magic tool that lets you talk to people from far away, but it can only be used by me.” (Yuna)

While we were having that conversation, the bear phone stored in the bear box made a ‘kuun’, ‘kuun’, ‘kuun’ sound.

I took out my bearphone.

‘Yuna-san, we’re near the entrance of the sacred tree.’ (Ruimin)

“I’m on my way, then.” (Yuna)

‘Yes, we’ll be waiting.’ (Ruimin)

I hung up the call again

“Alright let’s go, but make sure no one else comes. Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear, keep an eye on Shinobu, make sure she doesn’t behave suspiciously.” (Yuna)

‘ ‘Ku~u ~ n’ ’

“Why only me?” (Shinobu)

“……Just kidding.” (Yuna)

“That’s terrible. How can you joke like that when I’ve given my life to you to make you believe in me, Yuna?” (Shinobu)

Shinobu looked sad. I think I teased her a little too much.

Anyway, I left the three of them to Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, and used the bear gate to get to the bear house in the sacred tree.

=====

Beyond the door is the bear house within the sacred tree area. After passing through the door is another room, and the three of them look surprised when they peek inside the door.

“Mumuroot is just up ahead.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san tried to move, but I stopped her.

“Because we’re in an elven barrier and you might not be able to get in.” (Yuna)

“Is that so?” (Kagali)

“Wait for me there. I’ll go get him.” (Yuna)

I entered the bear gate and went to the bear house of the sacred tree.

Then I went outside the sacred tree. Since the three people cannot enter inside the perimeter of the sacred tree, I went to pick up Ruimin and Mumuroot-san.

When I walked outside of the sacred tree area, I saw Ruimin and Mumuroot-san.

Author’s Note:

Ruimin looks like she’s always having fun. w

Next time, we will go see Mumuroot-san.

※ The next post will be delayed. Maybe……
