Chapter 304 Bear-san Gives the Letter

[Rasa, is father in the bedroom?] Karina

[He’s working in his office.] Rasa

[!?] Karina

Karina looks surprised and asks Rasa-san.

[You didn’t stop him!?] Karina

[I did try to stop him, but he told me that he’s alright.] Rasa

Karina starts running when she heard Rasa-san’s words.

Seeing Rasa-san run after Karina, I decided to chase Karina as well.

Karina ran up the stairs and proceeded steadily, then she forcefully opened the door of one of the rooms without knocking and entered it.

[Father! What are you doing despite being injured?] Karina

[Karina, knock before you enter the room.] Balima

Inside the room is a slender man sitting on a chair and looking at some documents.

Karina called him father, then this must be Balima-san right?

[I’m sorry. But I just heard that father is working.] Karina

[Ah, I’m fine, I just can’t sleep in this situation.] Balima

[But....] Karina

Karina anxiously approached Balima-san.

He doesn’t look like he’s hurt, but it might not be visible because it was hidden under his clothes.

[Well then, how about introducing me to the cute lady over there dressed as a Bear?] Balima

Balima-san looks at me while patting Karina’s head.

[This is Yuna-san, an adventurer. She came from the Kingdom of Elfanica to see father.] Karina

[To see me?] Balima

Surprised at Karina’s words, he looked at me as if he’s seeing something strange.

[I’m Yuna, an adventurer. I came here as a messenger for His Majesty. You are the lord of Dezerto city, Balima-san, is it correct?] Yuna

I gave my greetings with unfamiliar speech.

[Ah yes, I’m the city’s lord, Balima Ishrit.] Balima

I walked towards him and gave the letter that I received from the King.

[This is, a letter from His Highness.] Yuna

historical

It is easier to show the letter than to have me explain it in words.

Moreover, he can’t believe that I have been asked by the King.

It has already been confirmed earlier by Karina though.

[This letter is from the Kingdom of Elfancia... is this real?] Balima

He’s looking alternately between me and the seal on the letter.

I get what you’re trying to say.

It’s hard to believe that a girl dressed in a Bear Costume is the messenger for Elfanica Kingdom.

[I believe the details were written in the letter.] Yuna

It is written, right?

If he didn’t wrote it, I’ll scream here in the castle.

I don’t need such kind of prank.

Balima-san cut the seal of the envelope and took out the letter.

Then once again, he looked between the letter and me alternately.

You can clearly see the surprised expression of his face.

It seems to be written properly.

But, what is written in there, how scary~~~~~~ I’m getting curious.

[Father, what is written in the letter?] Karina

Karina asked him what I wanted to hear.

[Oh, it looks like there is no doubt that she is the messenger of His Highness the King of Elfanica Kingdom.] Balima

He said that, even though he’s looking at the letter with the face saying [unbelievable].

Well, it’s about the Bear isn’t it?

[It also states that she brought a replacement for damaged water magic stones.] Balima

[Father, is that true?] Karina

[May I ask you for confirmation?] Balima

I took out the Kraken magic stone from the Bear Box and placed it on Balima-san’s desk.

[Here you go.] Yuna

[Huge....] Karina

[So its true....] Balima

Balima-san lifts Kraken’s magic stone.

[I’ve heard that it’ll be a replacement for the broken magic stone, is that okay?] Yuna

[Will you really hand over this magic stone to us?] Balima

He looked astonished at the magic stone placed in front of him.

[I think its written on the letter as well.] Yuna

It is written, right?

[Well, I didn’t expect this big magic stone to arrive, so what else can I say but thank you.] Balima

[Please give your thanks to His Highness instead.] Yuna

It is my magic stone, true...

But I don’t want anything troublesome.

Ostensibly, it is supposed to have been prepared by the King.

[Thank you....] Balima

I gave the Kraken’s magic stone, but his expression doesn’t look happy.

As expected, there is a problem isn’t there?

[Father....] Karina

Karina also whispers.

Balima-san gently puts his hand on Karina’s head.

Balima-san once again alternately looked between the letter and me.

And then, he called out to me with a determined expression.

[Yuna-san was it?] Balima

[Yes.] Yuna

[The King says that if I have any trouble, I should read the other letter in this envelope.] Balima

Balima-san takes out another envelope inside the envelope.

Two envelopes?

I haven’t heard from the king that there is another envelope.

[It is written that .] Balima

[My permission?] Yuna

I don’t even understand what his saying.

I haven’t heard anything about this from the King.

[It is also written here .] Balima

Ah, so that’s what he meant.

He didn’t write anything weird, did he?

I want to refuse, but Balima-san seems to be troubled enough to consider getting help from a Bear.

Normally, a sane person wouldn’t ask for help from a weird girl like me, even though he’s in trouble.

[In short, is it alright?] Balima

[To be honest, I am kinda bothered. I don’t know what the King had written.] Yuna

Well, I wouldn’t normally know.

[But the King, whom I know, is a man who does not do anything senseless.] Balima

Is that so?

I have never seen the King working, so I don’t know.

I only know the King who eat foods brought by me.

Oh, but when we first met, he might had looked like a King that time.

[I mean he’s the King... That definitely makes sense.] Yuna

I need to clarify the meaning, shouldn’t I?

For the time being, Balima-san looks like he’s clinging on a straw.

Its not likely that I would refuse, so I gave my permission.

[Well then, I shall read it.] Balima

When I give my permission, Balima-san opens the other envelope and takes out the letter from inside.

Then when he started reading the letter, his face turns into a surprised expression and looked at me many times.

[Father, what did that letter say?] Karina

Balima-san put the letter face down on the table to hide it from Karina.

[Father?...] Karina

[Yuna-san, is this letter true? I don’t think His Highness will lie, but...] Balima

[Hmm, let me see that letter.] Yuna

Balima-san gave me the letter.

Upon receiving, I looked through the letter.

What was written in the letter was the highlight of my career.

The source of the water magic stone was obtained from the Kraken that I had defeated alone.

Furthermore, my subjugation of the Black Viper, the Tiger Wolf and the Black Tiger Wolf was also included.

It didn’t say anything about the 10,000 monsters, but something relatively close to it.

They were true and were written to help him trust me, if he wanted my help.

It also said to quietly send me back to the royal capital, should he still not believe it.

It also states that the commission will be paid by the Elfanica Kingdom.

At the end of this letter, a warning was written so that the contents of this letter will not be exposed even to his family.

So, when Karina tried to look into the letter, he put the letter faced down.

But curiously after reading the letter, isn’t this a bit much?

The letter states that .

Though at the end it was written .

Maybe he wrote this to make him believe me, but this is a bit disturbing.

I do hope that he won’t write such a letter in the future without my permission.

I wanted to shout out one of the complaints, but I do understand that it is taken into account.

I wonder if this anxiety is because of the King, for having me believe in him.

Did the King knew about the current state of this city before sending me to it?

Is that too much to think about?

[It’s all true... But would you believe me when I say that though?] Yuna

[It may be more accurate to say that I’m confused. If it’s a normal letter, I might say that this is a joke and tear it away. A pretty girl dressed like this, was dispatched to deliver such a big magic stone alone and she also had a lot of achievements in her career to back her up. Above all, she have the full trust of the King.] Balima

That really seems to be confusing.

Well, it seems to be absurd saying that a girl dressed in a Bear Costume gained the King’s trust and did what was written in the letter.

However, it also looked like his brain wasn’t able to cope because of what is written in the letter, is from the King whom he trusts.

Well, normally I wouldn’t believe it as well.

[Lastly, may I see your guild card?] Balima

[My guild card?] Yuna

[Yes, I’d like to confirm it if you don’t mind.] Balima

I’m not sure if I’m going to leave the town without hearing the story, but I’m worried about the reason why Karina was in the adventurer’s guild crying.

I can’t just go home quietly.

I don’t know if Balima-san will ask me to do a job, but I’ll show him my guild card anyway.

When Balima-san received my guild card, he took the crystal plate out of the drawer and placed the card on it.

Then, the information of my guild card came out.

I can’t see it from here though.

Balima-san scanned the information on the guild card and after he saw it, he returned the guild card to me.

[Thank you very much... Yuna-san, please... Could you lend me a hand?] Balima

Balima-san bowed down to someone like me dressed as a Bear.

In other words, you believe in me right?

[Father!?] Karina

Karina was overwhelmed by Balima-san’s words and actions.

Well, it’s more surprising to say that her father bows down to a girl dressed as a Bear.

[Umm, what can I do to help?] Yuna

[Thank you.] Balima

I accepted it, but what was Karina asking for at the adventurer’s guild?

Going to the bottom of that pyramid.

There was no problem because I wanted to go to that pyramid and get inside anyway.

[Then I would like to talk to you about it, I’m sorry to leave you standing for too long... Please have a sit... Karina, tell Rasa to bring some tea for her.] Balima

When Balima-san asks Karina, a woman enters the room.

Author’s Note:

I couldn’t go as far as to why Karina was in the adventurer’s guild.

Next time, it is explanation time.

I’m very sorry.

I’ll be busy for a while, so I won’t reply to your comments.

TL Note:

I swear every time I type Karina I always mistype it to Katarina..
