Bear-san, Looks Around The Room

"So, then, do you want to live here, Kagali?" (King)

"Sure, if Yuna is willing." (Kagali)

"I'm fine with it." (Yuna)

Someone has to live in the mansion.

Besides, Kagali-san knew about the bear gate, so there's nothing wrong with that. I just have a gut feeling that there will be barrels of sake rolling around the room the next time I come back here.

"Then I'll let Suzuran know that you will stay here." (King)

I think it would be okay if someone would come to take care of Kagali-san.

But I have to watch out for Suzuran-san when she comes.

"Also, I'll present this to you, Yuna." (King)

King Suou offered me a card, which I gladly accepted. My name was written on the front of the card, and something like a family crest was drawn.

"What's this?" (Yuna)

"It's like a guild card. With it, any card bearer can freely enter the city without being questioned, no matter what kind of outfit they're wearing." (King)

King Suou was looking at a different place, not at my face.

"Why are you saying that while looking at my outfit?" (Yuna)

"Yuna, here." (Shinobu)

Shinobu immediately held a hand mirror in front of me.

"Why are you holding a mirror in front of me?" (Yuna)

I pushed back the hand mirror that Shinobu held out to me. I don't need to look in the mirror to know that I am dressed as a bear.

"I have received a report from Shinobu. I hope you will not feel bad about coming to this country in the future. This card is the royal family's endorsement of your identity, so it would serve you well if anything should happen in this country." (King)

Indeed, every time I enter a town, I get strange looks and questions about my outfit. A stuffed bear stands out wherever I go.

"By the way, I have one myself." (Shinobu)

With that said, Shinobu showed me her card.

Was it necessary because she's a ninja?

"I've given it to Shinobu because I sometimes ask her to go to different places." (King)

She truly is a ninja.

"Thank you. I'll gladly take it." (Yuna)

State authority is powerful, so it's better than nothing.

However, I'll have to be careful not to use it too much, because it could get me in trouble.

"Well, then, lightly pour some magic onto the card, and it will register you." (King)

I did as I was told and let the magic flow into the hand that was holding the card.

"Now then, that card belongs to Yuna. You can treat it like a guild card. Also, please give this card to that Ruimin girl." (King)

King Suou presented another card. The name of Ruimin was written there.

"Can I ask you to prepare one for someone else?" (Yuna)

"Why?" (King)

"I might be bringing a girl you met the other day named Fina, so I thought I might need one for her, too." (Yuna)
