Chapter 669

Bear-san Deciding to Help Primme

“Wait, where did my sister’s handkerchief go!” (Primme)

Primme climbed on Noa’s hand, trying to find her handkerchief.

“When I tried to catch it, it disappeared in my hand.” (Noa)

Even to my eyes, Primme’s handkerchief seemed to have disappeared into Noa’s palm.

“You’re lying. It might have fallen on the floor.” (Primme)

Primme didn’t seem to want to believe Noa’s words and started searching around Noa’s feet. Both Noa and I crouched down to search but couldn’t find the small handkerchief.

“It’s not there. I finally found someone who could see me and talk to me. I thought I could go look for my sister..” (Primme)

“Do you have anything else of your sister’s?” (Yuna)

“No. I only have that.” (Primme)

Until a little while ago, when she saw me and agreed to let me go to the fairy forest, she was smiling. Now she looked like she was about to cry.

“Hey, did it really go inside your body?” (Primme)

Primme asked as she climbed onto Noa’s hand to check, touching it.

“I tried to catch it in my hand, but it disappeared when it landed on my palm.” (Noa)

“Noa, did anything happen to your body?” (Yuna)

Noa touched herself, opening and closing her hands.

“No, I’m fine.. but I can somewhat feel something different.” (Noa)

Noa said as she put her hand on her chest.

“Hey, are you feeling alright?” (Yuna)

“I don’t know how to explain it. I can feel a different kind of magic power inside me, a tiny bit. It is similar to the feeling I had when Yuna-san taught me how to use magic before, and where you channelled magic power into my body.” (Noa)

I once channelled magic power into Noa and Fina’s bodies when I was teaching them how to use magic.

“But I could barely feel it. However, compared to the Yuna’s magic power entering my body before, the Fairy’s magic power did not disappear.” (Noa)

“Maybe my sister’s magic power has resonated with you?” (Primme)

“Isn’t that dangerous? Is there any risk of something strange happening to Noa?” (Yuna)

“I don’t think so, it’s not something that will affect Noa. It’s like me having a bit of your magic power.” (Primme)

If it was similar to the way I channelled magic power to Noa and Fina to teach them magic, then it might not be that dangerous.

“The magic power is still in that girl’s body, then maybe.. Hey, do you think you can tell us where my sister is? Do you feel as if you are connected to something from far away?” (Primme)

Primme asked Noa with a glimmer of hope in her eyes.

Noa closed her eyes and put her hands on her chest.

“I’m sorry. I don’t know. But I do feel something. Maybe it’s because she’s far away, just like Primme-san said.” (Noa)

“Then, maybe, if you go to the fairy forest..” (Primme)

“Will you take me to the fairy forest as well?!” (Noa)

Noa asked happily, thinking she too might be able to go to the fairy forest.

“No, you can’t.” (Yuna)

“Why not?” (Noa)

“It will take time to find someone, let alone a fairy. I don’t think we’ll find her in a few hours. That means you will have to stay away from home for a while. And I don’t think Cliff would allow you to go to a place he doesn’t know.” (Yuna)

“Ugh, that’s true, but..” (Noa)

“Primme, I’m sorry, but that’s the reason I can’t take Noa with me.” (Yuna)

Noa was not a child who could join me on an adventure without permission. On the other hand, I could ask Tirumina-san to bring Fina along with me without any problems.

But this time, I would need Cliff’s permission. Besides, Noa was the daughter of a noble family. She was not someone who could easily go on an outing.

“I’m sorry. Because of me..” (Noa)

Noa understood her situation and apologized.

“It’s not your fault. It was me who made so much commotion that I dropped my sister’s handkerchief. You were just trying to catch that handkerchief so it wouldn’t fall on the floor.” (Primme)

“But..” (Noa)

“Yuna, I’m sorry. Even though you told me you were going to help me.” (Primme)

Primme apologized profusely. The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l.B(j)n.

But my feelings haven’t changed.

“I’m going.” (Yuna)

“What? But, we don’t have any clues.” (Primme)

“I can at least go to the nearby village or town and ask if there are sightings of fairies around. Your sister usually left the fairy forest after all, right?” (Yuna)

“Yes.” (Primme)

“Then, for now, we can just look around for nearby places where there might be people who can give us clues. There might be some information about people who have seen fairies nearby. But if there is no information, and we don’t have any means to find her, we will have to give up.” (Yuna)

I couldn’t promise that I would be able to find her sister.

It might be possible to find someone if it was simply a human we were looking for or if someone might have seen the fairy.

However, even if someone had noticed that fairy, it would be all useless if they had kept quiet about it. There would be no information to work with, so it would be impossible to find her sister.

Without checking, we would not know anything at this point.

“Yuna, thank you.” (Primme)

For Primme’s sake, I really wanted to help her find her sister, but I also have a great desire to go to the fairy forest.

It was a give-and-take.

“..I’ll go, too.” (Noa)

Noa said with a look of determination on her face.

“If you really want to go, then ask your father for permission. If your father allows you, I will bring you with me.” (Yuna)

“Noa..” (Primme)

“But if I, who is helpless, go with you, I might cause trouble for Yuna-san. I will do my best to avoid causing trouble. If I can help the fairies, I would like to help them. If father permits me, may I go with you?” (Noa)

Noa had a serious expression on her face, not because she wanted to go to the fairy forest like me or because she had impure motives. She was not motivated by a desire to go to the fairy forest like me, but she seemed to regret what happened to Primme, even though it wasn’t her fault.

“Noa, are you sure? We’re going to a strange place. It could really be dangerous.” (Yuna)

“I’m a little scared, but I’ll be fine with Yuna-san. Besides, I don’t want to be the kind of person who waits and does nothing when there is something I can do. But if Yuna-san thinks I’m a nuisance..” (Noa)

I looked at Noa’s sad face and then at Primme.

“Just to confirm, we’re going through that mirror to the fairy forest, right?” (Yuna)

“Yes.” (Primme)

“Can we take Noa with us?” (Yuna)

“The Fairy Queen said I’m only allowed to bring one person, so she’ll be mad if she finds out, but as long as we leave the fairy forest right away, I think we’ll be fine.” (Primme)

As a Fairy Queen, she probably wouldn’t overlook the idea of bringing a bunch of humans into the fairy forest.

Well, there was also the possibility that I could go ahead of Noa and use the Bear Transfer Gate to bring her with me if needed.

If I decided to do that, then I would have to reveal the Bear Transfer Gate to Noa.

And also, if it was dangerous, I could use the Bear Transfer Gate to let Noa escape to a safe place. It might be just the right time to tell her about the Bear Transfer Gate.

I was a little worried that she might tell Cliff or Ellelaura-san, though.

“Okay, let’s do that. For now, let’s go ask Cliff for a favor, shall we?” (Yuna)

“Yuna-san!” (Noa)

Noa’s serious expression quickly turned into a happy one.

A smiling expression better suited Noa, after all.

“But promise me. Don’t do anything dangerous, and don’t act alone. If you really have to leave me, then at least stay with either Swaying Bear or Hugging Bear.” (Yuna)

“”Kuhn.””

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear approached Noa.

“Yes. I promise.” (Noa)

If push comes to shove, I would just throw her inside the Bear Transfer Gate to protect her.

“I’m going to ask father for permission to go out for a while, so wait for me.” (Noa)

“I’ll be going with you. He’ll believe me if I explain it to him.” (Primme)

“Yes, you’re right. I’m sure father will believe me when he sees Primme-san.” (Noa)

Indeed, it might be easier to convince Cliff if the fairy was right in front of him.

“If that’s decided, please take the mirror with you. Actually, I can’t get too far away from the mirror.” (Primme)

According to Primme, if she gets too far away from the mirror, the fairy’s water will lose its effect.

That was probably why the ghostly commotion appeared only in the mansion. If she wanted to find someone who could see her, it was certainly better to go to a place where many people might be around.

I picked up the mirror hanging on the wall and held it with both hands.

Surely, I wouldn’t be accused as a thief because of this, right?

“Yuna-san, is it heavy?” (Noa)

“Not really, I’m fine.” (Yuna)

It was big, but it would be easy to carry if I could store it in my bear storage.

But I didn’t know what would happen if I stored it, so I simply carried it along.

We left the supposedly haunted house and headed for Cliff’s house. Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, who have turned into cubs, walked along with us while Primme hid in Noa’s clothes because it would cause a commotion if other people found her.

As we moved along, Noa asked Primme.

“Primme-san was looking for someone who could see her, right?” (Noa)

“Yes, at first, I went to the nearest village to look for someone to help me, but I didn’t find anyone who could see me. I also tried to look for my sister alone, but she seemed too far away for me to chase after.” (Primme)

“Were you not scared? You were doing it on your own, right?” (Noa)

“It can’t be helped. I could only do it on my own even if I’ve hardly ever been out of the fairy forest, and I’ve only been to the nearby villages a few times.” (Primme)

With such a small body, I guess it would have been close to impossible.

Even if she could fly, I doubt she would be able to fly as fast as a bird.

“Feeling hopeless, I decided to use fairy water to connect me to a place where someone could find me. It has always been said that fairy water will guide fairies in finding those who can see them. So I guess that’s why I ended up connecting to that fairy mirror.” (Primme)

“So Yuna-san and Primme-san were destined to meet.” (Noa)

Noa said that without embarrassment.

While listening to their conversation, we soon arrived at Noa’s house and went to see Cliff.

Cliff was working, but when he saw us with the fairy, his expression turned to surprise, but he soon understood the situation.
