Chapter 237 – Bear-san Gives Ruimin A Bear Phone

Once all the details of my requests were all figured out, I led Ruimin all the way up to my Bear House on the cliff next to the waterfall.

「This should be far enough.」

「Will I really be able to contact you even when we’re far apart, Yuna-san?」

Even though Ruimin had already been introduced to the Bear Gate, she still found it hard to believe me. Well, they didn’t know that things like cell phones and telecommunication could possibly exist, so they were naturally skeptical in believing that magic or magic tools like the Bear Phone were a thing. I hadn’t heard about anything of the like in this world, and even if it existed here, it must be rare.

「We’ll use this to communicate easily.」

I handed over a communication device shaped like a Bear (the Bear Phone) to Ruimin.

「Bear-san?」

Ruimin looked at the cartoonish bear in her hand, tilting her head.

「It’s a magic tool that can used to talk to people who are far away.」

「A magic tool… that’s a bear?」

Ruimin said and curiously examined the magical Bear Phone in her hand.
Well, if I didn’t know it to be a magic tool, it could also seem like a bear-shaped toy…
Pondering the concept of my creation, I proceeded to take out out my personal Bear Phone.

「Oh, by the way, this magic tool is called a Bear Phone.」

「A Bear Phone…」

Ruimin switched her gaze between the phone and me a few times as though she wanted to say something. I didn’t prompt her to speak her mind, though, and rather began explaining how the Bear Phone worked.

「As long as we both have this Bear Phone with us, we can hear each other’s voices through it.」

「You can hear the other person’s voice? Isn’t such a thing… impossible?」

「I’m going to connect my Bear Phone to yours now, so don’t be surprised and drop it by accident, okay?」

「O-okay.」

She suddenly looked tense.

「You don’t have to be that prepared.」

I smiled as I made a call to Ruimin’s phone. Ruimin’s phone immediately began to ring: 「kuun, kuun, kuun」.

「W-what’s going on?!」

Ruimin was very surprised to suddenly hear the Bear Phone suddenly making weird sounds.
It was the same calling tone as usual, of course. It might sound more interesting than a digital ringtone, but its charm was slowly wearing off.

「W-what am I supposed to do now?!」

Ruimin didn’t know what to do with the ringing Bear Phone and panicked.

「Just pour some magical energy into it.」

「O-okay.」

Ruimin grasped the phone with both her hands and closed her eyes.
She just had to answer the call, but she was making it so dramatic.
Soon after, the ringing stopped.

「It stopped!」

She looked quite happy with just that, but there was still more to come.

「Okay, let’s move away from each other. I’ll say something first and then you can try responding through the phone.」
