Chapter 373
373 Bear-san Returns to the Island (Day 4)
Author’s Note:
As I wrote in the preface a while ago, the settings of KrynHark’s book have changed .
I apologize for the inconvenience it caused to my dear readers .
Shuri is sleeping on Gentz-san’s back and Fina is walking with Tiruminsan . Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear are walking with their children .
I talk to Noa who’s walking next to me .
[So where did Noa and your group go?] Yuna
[We went to the town . It’s nice to play in the sea, but seeing towns other than Crimonia is a learning experience, so I went out together with Misa and the others . ]
[Yes, it’s learning . And It’s fun . ] Misa
Misa agreed to Noa’s words .
[I was actually trying to find Yunsan, but the director told me,
By the way, the director was there listening to our conversation . However, it seems that she kept where I went a secret .
[That’s why I decided to go and look around the town with Misa . It’s nice to play at the beach, but it’s also fun to see the town and then it seems that the orphaned children seem to be conscious of our presence . ] Noa
Noa sadly said so .
Hmmm, is that so?
I never felt that way . Nevertheless, I wonder if the commoners are uncomfortable with aristocrats .
But that may be unavoidable . Orphaned children who have trouble obtaining food and have had a hard time surviving without parents . On the other hand, Noa, who was born into an aristocratic family, has no trouble eating, lives in a warm house, and wearing beautiful clothes .
Moreover, she is the daughter of the lord and has the power .
They probably don’t know how to deal with someone like Noa, the daughter of a nobleman and lord . The old Fina was like that . Noa isn’t the kind of kid who is intimidating . For those who do not know her, the words of an aristocrat and the lord’s daughter may be a terrifying decree .
[But the children who work at the store treat me normally . ] Noa
Well, since she goes to the store regularly, they will, of course, understand Noa’s personality .
[I really want everyone to treat me the same way, but it’s been difficult . ] Noa
[The kids in the shop were okay with you, so the other kids should be okay with you as well, of course, unless Noa says something . ] Yuna
[I won’t do it! …But I might have done it in the old days . I knew that I couldn’t just say my name in order to meet Fina and make friends with her normally . That’s right, so I refrain from asking as much as possible, but I will say it when I really want to . ] Noa
Are you really 10 years old?
I think it’s usually difficult to understand that much .
I want your sister to somewhat follow suit .
[I want to be like my sister . ] Noa
Apparently, Shia seems to be a good sister for Noa .
Well, Shia seems to be excellent at school .
And Noa seems to be growing every day .
That night, I finished bathing and eating, and when everyone fell asleep, I moved to the bear gate in Targui .
It was pitch black when I opened the door . There are no street lights and it’s being illuminated only by the light of the moon and the light of the stars .
I magically created light . The light that looks like a bear illuminated the surroundings .
[Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, let’s get going . ] Yuna
The normal-sized Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear passed through the bear gate and followed me .
After confirming that Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear passed through the gate, I closed the bear gate . I installed it in a hurry at that time, but if I can take my time to install it, I would like to install it in a proper place .
I look towards the sakura tree . The sakura tree is not shining . If it was shining, the shining flowers might have been beautiful in the middle of the night . It’s a little disappointing . However, when that happens, the monsters will approach and it is the anticlimax of the flower viewing .
For the time being, I will go and collect the defeated Wyverns .

I don’t know how much a Wyvern is worth, but it’s a waste not to collect it because I also defeated it .
They must have been around here . Even if I open the bear map, the map was useless because Targui was moving . So, while looking around, I will look for the place where I fought against the Wyvern based on my memory .
But the atmosphere changes between day and night, so I’m not sure . Above all, the drawback is that you can’t see far ahead .
[Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear . Do you know where I defeated the Wyverns?] Yuna
<
I will also magically cast lights on Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear . the light with a bear’s face floats on both Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear .
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear started walking . The balls of bear light were moving together with them . Moreover, both of them were walking in the same direction . Apparently, they knew more than me .
As I silently followed them from behind, I saw a dead Wyvern .
Since there are no other monsters or animals on this island, it remained as it was when it was defeated . I safely recovered all Wyverns’ carcasses .
The rest were the Krakens . They were charred by the flames .
I have Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to take me to the place where the Krakens are . They’re in a weird state, like a scorched mess .
Hmmm . It’s definitely unlikely to be used as a material . Back in the game, you can get the material no matter how you defeat it, but apparently, the reality is not the same .
Well, It’s my bad for attacking it with flames without thinking about it carefully .
I don’t want the Kraken looking like this to end up in the bear box . But, if I just leave it as it is, it might attract a monster . If you think about it, isn’t it better to throw it away in the sea?
[But I want the magic stones . What should I do?] Yuna
When I muttered so, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear cried
[Swaying Bear! Hugging Bear!] Yuna
When I called their names, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear already reached the corpse of a Kraken .
Then, after a while, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear returned while both of them holding magic stones in their mouths .
[…Thanks, both of you, but I’ll have to send you back at once . ] Yuna

The remains of the Kraken is sticking to the body of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear . I quickly returned them and then summoned them again .
Yeah, the beautiful Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear are back . This is really convenient . Also, it’s good that there is no summons like them in the game . Depending on the game, the number of how many times I can summon them per day is fixed .
The rest of the Kraken remains is magically thrown into the sea .
The next destination I went to after recovering the Wyverns and the Krakens’ magic stones were the KrynHark’s stone monolith . Now I don’t have KrynHark’s book . It is correct to say that it disappeared . After reading the last page of KrynHark’s book, I put it in the bear box . And when I tried to take it out, KrynHark’s book had disappeared from the bear box .
I don’t know when it disappeared .
When I come to the stone monolith, I touch the stone monolith and poured magical power into it . Then, the stone monolith shines like the last time and a book appears .
Honestly, just what kind of mechanism did he put in it?
I will experiment .
And the result of the experiment . Here’s what I learned about KrynHark’s book:
※ The book disappears after a certain distance from the stone monolith . Therefore, if it’s under that certain distance, it will not disappear even if you took it out in the sea . The stone monolith is at the top of the island, so the book disappears when I go back to the mainland .
※ When moving using the bear’s transfer gate . I can keep the book while the door is open . But when I close the door, the book disappears .
※ Even if I put it in the bear box, it disappears after a certain distance .
※ It is conceivable that the stone monolith and the book are connected by something like an invisible magical power and the book disappears after a certain distance .
※ The way the book disappears it becomes like small particles as if it were being breakdown into molecules . When I saw that phenomenon, I remembered my time in the game . There were weapons created by magical power . It was similar to how it disappeared .
※ Perhaps this book was created with my magical power . Therefore, a book will not appear without a certain amount of magical power . With that in mind, everything seems to fit in .
※ Well, it’s just within my imagination . However, it seems that KrynHark, who makes things that can do such feat, was a great person .
Based on the above, it may be better to install the bear transfer gate near the stone monolith . I really like the front of the stone monolith . I’m planning to build a bear house, but if it’s near the coast, it may be visible to the boats approaching the island .
Therefore, I want to build a bear house on the inner side of the island .
However, it seems difficult to find a good place because it is dark . Should I come again at noon?
[Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear . Isn’t there an inconspicuous place near the stone monolith?] Yuna

I gave up and asked them . They may find it, like when they searched for the Wyverns .
However, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear cried
That’s true . They can’t tell me a place they’ve never been to . I walked towards the sakura tree . Then, I didn’t notice it in the daytime, but there was a path next to it .
Is there something here?
Following the path, I arrived at a slightly open place .
Huh？
I threw the ball of magic light forward . Illuminated by the bear light, a collapsed house came into view .
Did anyone live there?
I think KrynHark may have lived there .
It’s hard to see its location because it is surrounded by trees . But it’s clearing is wide enough that you can see the sky . The sun shines in this area during the daytime .
I will set up a bear house in this place . I took the bear house for travel from the bear box next to the ruined house .
The bear house in my inventory is running low . Next time, I have to make a batch of full-blown bear houses . Even if the exterior is easy to make, I have to buy the household items inside . Since I have to modify the bath and small parts, it is convenient to make them all at once .
Next time, when I make the bear house, I think I’ll make about 10 at a time . It may be good to make varieties of large, medium, and small .
I entered the newly installed bear house and returned to the bear house in Mereera .
It’s already late in the night so I’ll go to bed .
Author’s Note:
The travel arc about to end?
But there are a lot of things I still want to write .
※Sorry, I would like to work on the book version during Golden Week, so I would like to take a little break . I will notify you again when the posting during the holidays starts .
