Chapter 547 - Bear-san, Goes To Talk To The Adventurers Guild

Bear-san, Goes To Talk To The Adventurers Guild

A few days later, with Noa’s birthday present, the sewing for a stuffed Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear doll was completed. All that remains is to put in the cotton, and we’ll be done.

But there is no cotton to put in those stuffed animals.

“I’m sorry, Yuna-chan.” (Naru)

After talking to Sherry, I went to Naru-san to ask for more information.

Bandits have stolen the shipment of cotton that was being transported to Crimonia.

Are bandits robbing cotton now?

Perhaps the bandits were also into the business of making stuffed animals?

I try to imagine the bandits making stuffed animals, but I quickly erase it in my mind. It wasn’t a charming image. Discrimination is not good, but appearance does distort the impression.

“Was the person transporting them hurt in any way?” (Yuna)

“He said he surrendered the goods to the bandits, so they didn’t take his life.” (Naru)

That’s good to know.

Life is more precious than cotton.

“Can’t you arrange for another one?” (Yuna)

“It seems that it will take time. This time, I had to ask for a favor. I told them we would use the cotton shipment to make Noire-sama’s birthday present. Their faces went pale when they heard it. I’d like to arrange another order, but I won’t make it in time. Yuna-chan. Would you like to use another type of cotton?” (Naru)

Hmm, what should I do now?

I have worked very hard with Fina and everyone to get to this point. We don’t want to compromise in the end. If we are going to make something, we want to make it good.

Then there’s only one thing to do. If the bandits have robbed it, then I’ll just have to repossess it.

If I don’t hurry, the bandits might sell the cotton, or they might make stuffed animals.

As expected, even though a thug made it, I couldn’t simply remove the cotton from other stuffed animals to be used in the ones we’re making.

I hurried to the Adventurers’ Guild. It was the best place to get information on bandits.

I talked to Helen-san at the reception desk.

“Helen-san, can I have a minute?” (Yuna)

“Yes, what is it?” (Helen)

“Have you heard of any bandits in the vicinity lately?” (Yuna)

I told Helen-san what Naru-san told me.

“Ah, if that’s the case, I think it has something to do with Mylene-san coming to Guildmaster right now.” (Helen)

“Mylene-san?” (Yuna)

Mylene-san is the guildmaster of a commercial guild. It seems that Mylene-san has come to see the guildmaster of the Adventurers’ Guild about the bandits.

Indeed, if bandits routinely attack and plunder shipments, then the commercial guild would be in trouble.

“I’d like to join in with the meeting. Can I?” (Yuna)

“Please wait a minute. I’ll go in and ask them now.” (Helen)

When Helen-san left her seat, she went to the back. Then, she returned afterward.

“It seems both of them are fine with it.” (Helen)

I thanked Helen-san and entered the back room. Inside the room, there were few people. First was the guildmaster of the Adventurers’ Guild, Rarock-san, a muscular elderly man, and the guildmaster of the Commercial Guild, Mylene-san, an intelligent-looking woman.

Additionally, there were other individuals in the room.

“Gil and Lurina-san. Even Mel-san, Senia-san, and Jade-san……” (Yuna)

And the other guy.

“Say something.” (Toya)

“The Comedian?” (Yuna)

“No, it’s not. It’s Toya.” (Toya)

“Just kidding.” (Yuna)

“We are there too.” (Blitz)

Another acquaintance adventurer in the opposite seat. An adventurer party with three women and one man.

“Blitz Harem Party!” (Yuna)

“Wrong!” (Blitz)

Blitz shouted in a desperate denial.

“No, that would be correct.” (Toya)

Toya, however, agreed with my words.

Well, setting aside whether it was a harem party or not, it was a party of three women consisting of Rosa-san, Ran, and Grimos, surrounding Blitz. What else to call such a group if not a harem?

“What’s up with the gathering?” (Yuna)

“I was just asking for a request to subdue bandits. Helen told me that you also want to be involved.” (Rarock)

“I don’t know if it’s the same bandits, but were they the ones who stole the cotton?” (Yuna)

“Yes, cotton is on the list of stolen goods.” (Mylene)

Mylene-san answered my question while looking at the paper in her hand.

“Could it be that cotton is what Yuna-chan asked for?” (Mylene)

“Yes, we were making stuffed animals for Noa’s birthday present, but I heard bandits stole the cotton.” (Yuna)

“And that’s why you are now here at the Adventurers’ Guild.” (Rarock)

Guildmaster was convinced.

“The bandits also stole something they shouldn’t have.” (Mylene)

“For now, if you want to listen to the details, go grab a chair.” (Rarock)

Guildmaster told me to sit down, so I looked around for a chair.

Senia-san and Ran waved at me to beckon me to sit there, but I sat next to Lurina-san. This place seems to be the safest.

The two looked disappointed, but sitting next to Lurina-san would be the safest considering my safety.

“Since Yuna is here, I’d like to briefly explain again that recently some of the goods that were being transported have been stolen.” (Rarock)

“So far, though, they haven’t even taken lives if we give them the goods. But as a commercial guild, we need to do something quickly, so we’ve come to you as an urgent request.” (Mylene)

“And we were exchanging information with each other just now.” (Rarock)

Guildmaster and Mylene-san explained.

Now I know why everyone is in this room.

“I see that Jade-san, Blitz, and the others were also in Crimonia.” (Yuna)

“We had just been hired as an escort to Crimonia. So we stopped by the Adventurers’ Guild, and we were asked to help them take down some bandits.” (Jade)

“We just stopped by the Adventurer’s Guild, as we were about to go to Mereera.” (Blitz)

As an adventurer, it’s a job that could potentially kill you somewhere along the line. It’s nice to see them after a long time.

“Do all of you know Yuna-chan?” (Mylene)

Mylene-san looks at everyone curiously.

“We’ve worked with Yuna on several occasions.” (Jade)

“We worked together to take down the bandits in Mereera.” (Blitz)

“I also worked together with Yuna-chan and even received requests from her.” (Lurina)

Jade-san, Blitz, and Lurina-san answered.

“Guildmaster. Why didn’t you talk to Yuna? Even though she’s dressed like this, you know she’s strong, right?” (Jade)

Jade-san asked to air his question.

Certainly, I haven’t heard about the request to subdue the bandits.

“Monsters and bandits are different. Some people can kill monsters, but they can’t kill people. Yuna has fought bandits twice, but she hasn’t killed anyone yet. I couldn’t just ask Yuna to do that.” (Rarock)

“How did you know all that information?” (Yuna)

“I looked over the information of competent adventurers. Even competent adventurers have their strengths and weaknesses. If there is an urgent request, we must send the right person to the right place. You have never killed anyone, have you?” (Rarock)

“…No, not yet at least.” (Yuna)

I have defeated and subjugated monsters in games, so I have no problems with killing them. But when it comes to people, even evil ones, would be a step too far.

I have caused serious injury, but I have not taken a single human life.

“That’s why I didn’t call for you.” (Rarock)

“Then why did you give me permission to come in?” (Yuna)

“You’re also an adventurer. If you want to get involved, I won’t stop you. You are a good adventurer. But just because you heard about it doesn’t mean you have to accept it.” (Rarock)

Apparently, the Guildmaster had put a great deal of thought into the matter. He wasn’t just a pure musclehead.

“We just have to capture them, don’t we?” (Yuna)

“Yes, we have to capture the bandits.” (Rarock)

“Then I’ll help too. We’ll capture them quickly and recover the robbed goods.” (Yuna)

Otherwise, we can’t make stuffed animal dolls.

“So, do you know where the bandits are and how many are there?” (Jade)

Jade-san, as the representative, asked Guildmaster.

“There is a mountain between Crimonia and Shelin. We have information that these bandits are using that mountain as their base. We know that there are more than ten of them.” (Rarock)

“That’s surprisingly few.” (Jade)

“We’ll be fine on our own, I guess.” (Toya)

Toya said confidently.

Where does that confidence come from?

“Are you an idiot? We have this many people because it’s hard to find them in the mountains.” (Jade)

Jade-san explained to Toya while sighing.

“He’s right, you know, the mountains are a pain in the a.s.s. There will be lookouts, and there’s always the possibility of them escaping.” (Rosa)

“Yeah, we couldn’t find them back then either.” (Blitz)

Rosa-san and Blitz spoke of the things they were reminded of.

Perhaps they were referring to the bandits who showed up in Mereera. Blitz and his party were unable to locate the bandits.

“But if Yuna-chan helps us, that would make things easier. With Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan around, we can find out where the bandits are.” (Rosa)

Rosa-san looked at me and smiled.

To Rosa-san’s group, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were the ones who found the bandits.

Lurina-san was the only one aware of my detection skills.

However, she didn’t open her mouth, as she thought that it was only used for monsters.

“We’re counting on you. Bear girl.” (Toya)

“I don’t mind. I’ll leave the cleanup to you.” (Yuna)

After catching the bandits, I will leave the transportation job to them because it’s a ha.s.sle. My objective was only the stolen cotton.

“Well then, everyone should prepare today and leave early tomorrow morning.” (Rarock)

Everyone would head out on horses provided by the Adventurers’ Guild.

Well everyone except for me.
