Bear-san speaks with Princess Honoka
“So, where are you and Sakura going now?” (Honoka)
“We are going to resume our tour of the castle.” (Sakura)
Sakura replied.
“Well, then, I’ll take over for Shinobu and keep the girls company from here on out.” (Honoka)
“Why are you replacing me?” (Shinobu)
Shinobu protested to Princess Honoka.
I’d been thinking about it for a while now, but Shinobu’s attitude seemed to be normal and relaxed, even when dealing with the princess.
“You are sweating profusely from the fight you just had. Are you going to deal with a guest covered in sweat like that?” (Honoka)
“Ugh.” (Shinobu)
Shinobu was wiping her face and neck with a towel while I was fighting Jubei-san.
“I won’t ask you to take a bath, but you should at least take a quick wash. Until then, I will take care of the girls.” (Honoka)@@@@
“But I’m supposed to escort them...” (Shinobu)
“We are in the castle. Who is going to attack them, right, Jubei?” (Honoka)
Jubei-san looked annoyed at the mention of his name.
“Besides, I am also alone, but did you see anyone escorting me?” (Honoka)
Indeed.
She was a princess, and she didn’t have a single escort with her.
“Above all, with Father’s orders, I don’t think anyone will even think of interrupting us.” (Honoka)
Shinobu fell silent after being told that much.
“Yuna, you’re okay with that, right?” (Honoka)
I would prefer Shinobu, who I was used to.
But when dealing with a princess, I couldn’t be that direct.
“I don’t smell sweat, so Shinobu should be fine...” (Yuna)
“That’s right. I don’t smell bad, right?” (Shinobu)
Shinobu sniffed her own scent and asked for my agreement.
In fact, I did not smell any sweat.
Well, it was not like we were close enough to each other, so I wouldn’t be able to tell unless I was standing right next to her.
“Shinobu, do you really expect the other party to tell you that you smell bad when you ask something like that? Also, the other party might not notice it while they are away from you, but they would notice it when they stand next to you.” (Honoka)
“Ugh.” (Shinobu)
Princess Honoka pushed Shinobu into a corner.
Well, it would be hard to tell someone that they smelled, even if one were close.
If Fina smelled bad, I might say in a roundabout way, “It’s hot today, let’s take a bath”.
“Is Yuna not sweating after that?” (Shinobu)
“No, I’m not sweating.” (Yuna)
“Well, that’s depressing to hear, you know?” (Shinobu)
That was thanks to my bear outfit regulating the temperature.
“Okay, I’ll take care of this. Yuna, I’ll be right back, take care of Sakura-sama.” (Shinobu)
Shinobu left to take a bath or a dip, I have no idea, but she went away to wash herself.
Jubei-san saw it and spoke to me.
“Yuna, I apologize for the trouble I’ve caused you. If you have the chance to fight again, I’d like to ask you to join me for a match once more.” (Jubei)
“Whenever I feel like it.” (Yuna)
Jubei-san said, “That’s fine,” and started walking in the direction Shinobu had left.
“Then we’ll go ahead, as well.” (Honoka)
Princess Honoka smiled at us. I looked at Sakura, the only one I could rely on, and she shook her head lightly.
It seemed that we had no choice but to go along with Princess Honoka.
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear greeted her.
“Honoka-neesama, you don’t have to be afraid of them.” (Sakura)
Sakura stood up and approached Hugging Bear, gently stroking its body.
As if following suit, Princess Honoka also stood up and approached Swaying Bear, slowly extending her hand to touch Swaying Bear.
“They are very docile, aren’t they?” (Honoka)
“I, with the help of Swaying Bear, and Hugging Bear got here. Also, as long as you don’t harm them, they won’t do anything to you. The same could be said for these girls.” (Yuna)
I looked at Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, and finally at Fina and the others.
I made sure to mention Fina and the others so that they would not be harmed.
“So you really rode these bears on the sea and arrived at the shores of the Land of Wa, huh?” (Honoka)
I didn’t tell her about the Bear Transfer Gate, but she seemed convinced.
Then I told her about the fight with Jubei-san and the fight with the giant serpent.
I guessed that the King had already told her some of the story, so she was just confirming the answers and reconfirming the information.
She had heard a little about Mumroot-san and Ruimin, but she did not seem to have been told where they came from or where they went, so I did not tell her either.
If I had to tell her about it, I would have to tell her about the Bear Transfer Gate.
“Thank you very much for bringing it to my attention because I didn’t have enough information.” (Honoka)
“If that clears the air, then I am happy.” (Yuna)
Princess Honoka thanked me.
Then Shinobu appeared at the same time.
“There you are. I’ve been looking for you.” (Shinobu)
Shinobu looked refreshed, as if she had taken a bath.
“What were you talking about when you summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear?” (Shinobu)
I explained briefly to Shinobu.
“Honoka-sama... Please tell the King about this matter yourself.” (Shinobu)
“I understand.” (Honoka)
We then went outside the castle.
“It was a very meaningful time. Sakura and Shinobu, please continue to take good care of the girls.” (Honoka)
“Yes.” (Sakura)
“Of course.” (Shinobu)
Then Princess Honoka left.
“I was so nervous.” (Fina)
“She is a beautiful princess.” (Shuri)
After Princess Honoka was gone, Fina and Shuri commented.
“Yes, you are right. She was polite and didn’t make fun of Yuna-san.” (Noa)
“I’m not speaking in place of Honoka-sama, but like her, I was happy to hear more about what you did in the Land of Wa.” (Misa)
“I will have to make a report when I return to Crimonia, won’t I?” (Noa)
“Yes.” (Misa)
Misa nodded at Noa’s words.
“Report?” (Yuna)
“Nothing.” (Noa)
“Yes, it’s nothing.” (Misa)
Noa and Misa looked as if they were trying to cover something up.
We got in the carriage Shinobu had prepared for us and finally departed from the castle, ending our castle tour.
...
Shinobu didn’t smell bad. Probably...
