Chapter 164 – Bear-san Receives An Invitation
Fina was at my door, completely out of breath.
「Why are you in such a hurry?!」
「Because… this…. letter…」
I had no idea what she was trying to tell me.
Before I listened to what she had to say, I took a bottle of water out of the Bear Box and gave it to her. She drank the whole bottle in one go before catching her breath.「Thank you, Big Sis Yuna.」
「So, what happened?」
I inquired again.
「Didn’t you receive a letter as well, Big Sis Yuna?」
「No?」
Fina was grasping what seemed to be a letter in her hand.
Well, I didn’t really check my postbox very often.
I thought nobody in this world would be sending me letters anyway. It had been the same in Japan. I hadn’t even gotten any personal emails either; the only ones I had ever received had been those from the game company.「Please go and check your postbox, then.」
「Okay.」
Since Fina insisted so strongly, I went to check my bear-shaped postbox.
Oh, there really was an envelope inside.
I took it out and immediately noticed that it was of a high quality.「I knew you would receive one as well, Big Sis Yuna.」
Fina said and sighed a breath of relief.
I had no idea who would send me this letter, though.
I looked at the sender’s name.
Who was Misana Faren Gramm again? I faintly recalled hearing that name before.「Is this person your acquaintance?」
「What are you saying? It’s Misana-sama. We ran into her on our way to attend the king’s birthday party. The noble, Misa-sama.」
Ah, I remembered now.
Misa was Misana’s nickname.
Still, why would Misa send me a letter?
I headed back into the house with Fina to hear the details.「Fina, did you read yours already?」
「Yes, I have… It’s an invitation to Misa-sama’s birthday party…」
「An invitation to her birthday party?」
I broke the seal on my envelope, took out the letter, and quickly scanned over it. Just as Fina had said, it was an invitation to Misa’s party.
「So, leaving you aside, why did Misa-sama send an invitation to me, a commoner? This is a Noble-sama’s birthday party!」
Fina said while anxiously staring at her letter.
Well, if we compared the two of us, Fina, who made friends easily, was more likely to be invited to the capital than me. If I wasn’t wrong, they had met with each other a few times in the capital while I had been running errands.「Big Sis Yuna, what happens if I refuse?」
There was no point in asking me that since I didn’t know, either.
Well, based on my common sense, refusing would most likely be considered rude.She would probably need a good enough excuse to refuse an invitation of this sort. I honestly had no knowledge of noble etiquette, especially the one of this world. Also, this was a pain for me as well since I had never gone to any birthday parties back in my world. Not to mention, this was a party for nobles. I had nothing against Misa, but if other noble families were attending, then I didn’t want to go.
Also, attending a birthday party in a Bear Suit?
All the girls there would be wearing beautiful dresses; I would look like some sort of a comedian wearing my Bear Suit. So, for a different reason than Fina, I also wanted to refuse the invitation myself. Could we refuse it, though?
Since neither of us knew much about nobles, we couldn’t come up with a good answer no matter how much we pondered about it.
