3 Kuma-san is going to sell the wolf

3 Kuma-san is going to sell the wolf

coming before the entrance, a guard was lying there in wait.
his glance was directly looking at me.
and then i recalled what i currently look.
Kuma(くま) kuma(クマ) kuma(熊) bear(ベアー).
way of writing or way of speaking, no matter how you change its all the same.
its suspicous but its should'nt be scary.
since, after all Fina says its cute.
its only about me being embarassed of how cute it is.
It would be probably cute if a child with an age like Fina would wear.
Someone like a shut-in like me wouldn't be suited to it.
that's why saying all that, you shouldn't look at me that much.

"The little girl here is, you were the kid that was searching for the plants right. Did you find the plants?"

"hai"

Fina happily smiled.

"that's good. So you kept the promise about not going inside forest. after all there are monster there"

hearing those words, i can't help but did a bitter smile.

"So then, whats with that girl with the odd appearance."

"If you won't mind it, it will help me a lot."

"well, after all each person has their own appearance. For the time being, if you are going to come in show your card."

Fina showed her citizen card to the gate soldier.
She showed it to me earlier while we were coming here.
If you are a citizen, you can come in for free.
other than citizens, it seems you will have to pay 1 silver coin for tax.
I was inside as I entrust myself to the joy of being able to eating a meal. (TL: explanation: its like you are being pulled by the smell of the food -d-)
when i entered, a girl about in the middle of her teens was surprised.
again and again, everyone is stumped by the same reaction.
since i have money lets consider buying some armors.

"w-welcome?"

looking at my apearance the girl somehow was able to say it.

"well, I heard that i can lodge here"

"yes, its all right but are you the alone?"

"yeah, I'm alone. perhaps, is that not allowed?"



"I am someone who travels"

"Are you traveling alone with such appearance?"

I tried flapping the Mouth of the Kuma open and close.

"for the time being"

I can only say those words.

"Your identification card please........"

The gate soldier only said those words.
I don't have anything like that.

"I don't have any but, its fine to pay for 1 silver to come in right?"

"so you don't have one? any card from any town works you know. or even guild cards work."

"well, i lived in a place that didn't have those cards."

"how unusual"

"is that so?"

"no, its just that if you haven't been to any towns or to the Imperial capital then you don't have one."

"so then, can i get in?"

"yeah, someone who is not a citizen will have to pay a tax of 1 silver. also those who don't have any identification documents will have to be investigated if they have done any crimes. Well, since you haven't gone to any other towns, it will be pointless doing that"

Beforehand i took out 1 silver coin from the White kuma and fed it to the black kuma. I took my hand out and passed it to the Gate soldier. (TL: for better understanding, beforehand she took out one coin from the white kuma, from the kuma item box, than passed it to the black kuma, though the author used fed like feeding something rather than passed, then passed it over to the guard -d-)

"well then, can you go inside that room"

Since i came to this world i haven't commited any crimses, so there is no problem.
of course i haven't dony any crimes back in the original world.
I'm telling the truth ok.

The gate soldier took me to a building near the gate.
i wonder if its a well barracks that usually comes out from fantasy novels.
entering inside there was a reception like place.
to where i was lead to, a gatekeeper put down a crystal on the desk before me.

"Put your hand on the crystal plate, if you're a criminal it will shine red"

"do i only have to do that?"

"yeah, 'cause it will examine girlie's magical power's reaction"

Putting my hand on the crystal plate, there wasn't any reaction.

"Look's like you're fine"

"do you really understand it with just that?"

"So you even don't even know that. just where do you really come from."

"at a far village"

"if thats true, then an explanation is needed. This crystal plate you know, is that its connect to the whole country's crystal plate. if its someone who lived in a town, when a baby is born a citizenship card is issued and at the same time the magical power is registrated. This is done the same at the Imperial Capital, and other towns. and with regards to that, with this you can know where someone's origin is"

Its quite similar to a residents registration i think.

"An then in a case of a crime, you can record  its "data" to this crystal plate. IF recorded, then that "data" will spread through others crystal plate. and with that, criminals will never be able to enter a town or at the Imperial Capital."

"If a forge card or other's card are use what will happen?"

"THat's impossible. THe card is made to react with ones magical power. if its not the same magical power as when you registered, there wouldn't be any response"

the magical power is probably like the fingerprint.

"but still, if the magical power is not registered, then wouldn't it be pointless"

"yeah it comes to that. but, to what i said earlier, the people who haven't come to any Towns or at the Imperial capitals would only be villagers you know.since Those kinds of guys rarely does any crimes"

certainly it may be so.

"that the end of the explanation. Do you have anything else you want to know? if none, then, its already ok to enter the town"

saying my thanks, i went out of the room, outside Fina was waiting.
I brushed Fina's head gently.

"Yuna-oneechan, was everything alright?"

"yeah, there was nothing wrong"

"well then, lets go to the guild and sell the "wolf""

Inside the town, it was similar to the one in the game but somehow i feel that there is something different.
and then, for some reason everyone is look at my direction.
maybe its because I'm an outsider?

"Yuna-oneechan's appearance sure stands-out"

I forgot about it.
about me, with an apearance of a kuma.
Up until we reached the place we had in mind, it goes without saying it but every people we had passed through looked at us.
The place where i was lead to was a building beside a large building.
At the large Building there was adventurers holding either swords or staves.
since the statys screen won't come out, I don't know wether if they are players or non-player. I want to investigae it but, right now I decided to followed Fina.

"This will be where we wil be selling it. Excuse m~e. I would like to sell this "wolf""

Fina called the male person inside the counter.

"If it isn't Fina. whats the matter and why in such tme?"

"We came to sell some raw materials"

Fina put the "Wolf" materials on top of the table.
And i did the same.

"this is- isn't this a "wolf's" pelt and meat? what happened?"

"just a while a go when i went to the forest to pick up some medicinal, i ended up being attacked by "wolves", then, this here, Onee-chan saved me"

"you, why did you go to the forest?!"

The male clerk yelled

"un, there wasn't any left of Mother's medicinal plants"

"Didn't i say it many times. That if you need any, I'll get my hands on it"

"but still, its always and always, we can't always rely on Genz-ojisan. I didn't even paid money for it"

"thats why, didn't i said that its alright.If- if something happens to you, I don't know what to say to your mother"

"don't worry its alright. because I had went to forest many times already"

"but, today didn't you get attacked by "wolves". That, something, odd, strange girl, didn't you got saved by her. Jou-chan I'm really grateful for saving Fina." (TL: about this part "Jou-chan I'm really grateful" , jou-chan can be tl'ed as girlie but with the mood i can't use girlie so i just used the romaji -d-)

He unpleasantly said it while looking at me.

"er, I was lost on my way so we are equal on this regard"

"I want to thank you more but this is work, but i will properly give you the proper amount from this purchase, is that alright?"

"I'm fine with that"

The man proceeded validated the "wolf" materials.

"let's see here, so meat and its pelt. with this amount, it will be this much" (TL: he said no price -d-)

Genz put the money on the table before me.
I don't wether its many or few.

"hai, thank you very much"

Fina recieved it happily.
Fina who got the money passed me half of it.

"Fina, you can have all of it, so won't you lead me to a good inn? Since its my first time in this Town, i don't know any. but still, you still have to quickly give your mother the medicinal plant, so its a no go"

I remebered the reason i encountered Fina at the forest.

"Its all right, on a way back home there is an inn, so i can guide you"

"thanks"

"Fina! don't do anything dangerous again. If you need some medicine, just say it to me"

"un, ok"

Fina replied and we walked out.

"That man from earlier, is he an acquantance?"

"hai, we always get helped by him. Sometimes, whenever there are too many monsters, i get given a job to skin them off"

I see,so thats why she was that good at dismantling.

"And then, He know that my mother has an illnes, there were times that he hand over medicine or cheap medicinal plant. and there are times that it just runs out of stock. but still, every time and everytime, we can't always rely on him on medicines"

so because of that, this time she went to the forest to take some medicinal plants.

somehow, I want to do something for Fina but, right now its probably impossible.
since I'm also in some kind of situation.

The inn that i was led to was a 30 minute walk away from the selling place.
unexpectedly there was quite a distance.
obviously this goes with saying it but, while walking i was bathe in gazes.

"Its here. Everyone says that the food is good here"

"thanks. Then, quickly go to your mother and give her the medicinal plants that's with you"

"un, Thank you Yuna-oneechan"

Fina started to run.
Seeing her off before the Inn that i was standing, a tasty smell drifted about.
since the sun has set, its already dinner time.
I'm expecting a good meal.
entrusting myself to the joy of beaing able to get a meal, i entered the inn.
as i entered inside, a girl in the middle of her teens was surprised as she looked at me.
each and each time, its really bothering that everyone has the same reaction.
well, since i got money, maybe i sould consider about armors.

"w-welcome?"

the girl was able to somehow say it while looking at me.

"I heard that you can stay here"

"yes, its all fine, but are you alone?"

"yeah, i'm alone. perhaps is it no good?"


"that's no problem at all. morning and night including meal is 1 silver coin. with no meal it would be half."

looks like, i can stay here with no problems.

"so then, 10 days with meals please"

"the bath will be between the time of 6-10pm"

"there is a bath!?"

"yes, there is. you can have a peace of mind as it is seperated by gender."

what a happy miscalculation. i have never thought that the inn would have a bath in it.

"Can I have a meal right away?"

"we can do it right away"

after hearing the explanation, i took out 10 silver coins out of the mouth of the white kuma.
the moment when she recieved it, she grasped the black kuma.

"wha, sorry. It was just so cute. its 10 days with meals right. the meal will be prepared right away so please take a seat and wait. ahh, I am the owner's daughter of this inn, you can call me Erena. plase treat me well"

"I'm yuna. for a little while treat me well too"
