Chapter 370

370 Fina Deceives Everyone in the Hidden Room (Day 4)

Yuna-oneesan left us and exited the room .

I can’t let my worry show in my facial expression . Yuna-oneesan returned to the island where monsters have gathered together with Swaying Bear-chan . I want to say <Don’t go>, but I couldn’t stop her . And when Yuna-oneesan left the room, the door closed slowly . Hugging Bear was looking at the door . I’m sure he may be lonely . Shuri hugs Hugging Bear-chan . Just by hugging Hugging Bear-chan, Shuri is calm .

[Fina-chan, are we really okay here?] Shia

Shia-sama anxiously asked . This place is under Yuna-oneesan’s house in Crimonia . We will never be attacked by monsters . But I can’t tell Shia-sama about that . Yuna-oneesan kept it a secret that this place was in Crimonia .

In the first place, if we go through that bear door, I won’t be able to explain that it’s connected to the basement of Yuna-oneesan’s house in Crimonia . I don’t think they will believe me even if I said it .

[It’s okay, no monster will come to this room . ] Fina

I can affirm that . Because we’re in Crimonia .

That door is connected to various places, so the moment it closes, it will be disconnected from the place where we entered . Therefore, even if the monsters hit or break the door outside, the door on this side of the room will not be affected .

So that’s why I said that this room was safe no matter what happens . However, Yuna-oneesan jokingly said, <If Crimonia was attacked by the monsters, it might be dangerous here as well>, with a laugh .

But I think it’s safe inside this basement .

Shia-sama gets up from her chair and walks around the room . Then go to the bear door .

The door is a double-door and there are bear fixtures on the left and right sides . If you open this door, you can go to various places . It’s a really mysterious door . Perhaps Yuna-oneesan used this door when she first came to Crimonia . When I asked her before where she came from, she said, <From a very distant place> . However, it may be different because there was an atmosphere around her saying that she could never return there . But she can easily go back using this door .

Shia-sama touches the bear door and puts her strength opening the door .

[Are? It won’t open . ] Shia

Shia-sama did her best at pushing and pulling the door, but the door doesn’t budge .

[Shia-sama, that door can only be opened by Yuna-oneesan . ] Fina

[Is that so?] Shia

[Yuna-oneesan says that the door can only be opened by her . Therefore, neither monsters nor people can enter . So it’s absolutely safe here . ] Fina

Even if a thief or a scary person comes, this door cannot be opened .

[Then, how about breaking the sidewall . ] Shia

Shia-sama continuously hit the wall next to the door and a <konkon> sound reverberated inside the room .

[I think it won’t break . ] Fina

[This room is really sturdy, isn’t it?] Shia

It’s sturdy since it’s under the house of Yuna-oneesan in Crimonia . I don’t think there is anything beyond that wall . Maybe there is only soil . Therefore, hitting from here will not break it . Somehow lying to Shia-sama is hurting my heart .

[But then, because there are no windows, I don’t know what’s going on outside . Even if it’s safe here, I’ll be a little worried if I don’t know what’s going on outside . ] Shia

There are no windows in this room . Well, it can’t be helped because it’s underground . If there is a window, everything will be revealed .

Shia-sama gave up on opening the door and went back to her chair .

[If anything happens, Hugging Bear-chan will tell us, so it’s okay . ] Fina

[That’s right . Hugging Bear-chan will tell us when a monster approaches . ] Shia

<Kuu~n>

Hugging Bear-chan cried at Shia-sama’s words . Are you saying <leave it to me?> I’m not Yuna-oneesan, so I don’t know what Hugging Bear-chan is saying .

I’m envious of Yuna-oneesan for understanding the words of Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan . I also want to have a conversation with Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan .

[Even so, Yuna-san’s house is full of bears . The house is also a bear and the door is also a bear . She is dressed as a bear even though she hates being ridiculed . ] Shia

[She like bears so much, so maybe she doesn’t want to be ridiculed for it . ] Fina

[I think that’s rather convincing . But I’ve never seen a bear lover who loves her bears so much . So I’m wondering if that’s the reason she could even get bears as a summoned beast?] Shia

Maybe . I’m not sure .

Her house is a bear, the magic tool that can talk to someone in a distant place is in the shape of a bear, and her carriage is also a bear . I think Yuna-oneesan really loves bears .

Shia-sama seems to have calmed down while we’re having a conversation . And when I look at Shuri, she’s opening the refrigerator a bit far from Hugging Bear-chan .

[Shuri?] Fina

[Oneechan . There are ice cream and cake in here . Can I eat it?] Shuri

Shuri isn’t scared or nervous . That’s good then . In case we ever need to use this room, Yuna-oneesan asked me to calm everyone down . Apparently, I don’t have to worry about that .

[I think it’s okay, but don’t eat too much . ] Fina

[Un!] Shuri

Shuri takes out the ice cream and starts eating it on Hugging Bear-chan’s back . Please don’t spill it .

Shia-sama, who saw Shuri eating ice cream, also took out the cake from the refrigerator .

[Fina-chan, do you want to eat too?] Shia

[Yes, please . ] Fina

I ate the cake prepared by Shia-sama . As always, it’s delicious .

Even though Yuna-oneesan went back alone on the island where the monsters are, is it okay for us to take it easy?

Perhaps she’s fighting alone . Since we can’t fight together with her, we have to stay in this room .

Besides, I can’t say anything that would make Shia-sama and Shuri uneasy .

[Free time, huh . ] Shia

Shia-sama muttered .

After we finished eating ice cream and cake, we have nothing to do .

[Oh, there is a game . ] Shuri

Shuri found game equipment in the box on the shelf . Shuri found Reversi and Trump playing cards . By the way, I forgot that Yuna-oneesan told me to play with this when I need to pass the time .

She said that playing games would be a good distraction because people get stressed if they have nothing to do .

Nice one, Shuri .

[What is that?] Shia

[It’s something fun . Shia-oneechan, let’s play together . ] Shuri

We all decided to play Reversi .

(Pachi, pachipachi . ) Two whites turned black .

(Pachi, pachipachipachipachi . ) Four blacks became white .

(TN: (pachipachi) The clacking sound when the wooden pieces hit the board . )

The black bears turn into white bears . You can tell the outcome without counting .

[I lost again . ] Shia

[Hugging Bear-chan, won . ] Shuri

Shuri, who beat Shia-sama, happily hugs Hugging Bear-chan .

[I lost to both Fina and Shuri . ] Shia

[It can’t be helped . Shia-sama played this game for the first time . While Shuri and I often play with everyone in the orphanage, so we know how to win . ] Fina

[This reversi is simple, but it’s interesting because it needs a strategy . You have to think about which pieces you have to let the opponent take, then plan on how to get it back later . Sacrificing some pieces in order to take the edge . ] Shia

[You can’t win just by taking a lot of places . ] Fina

[Did Yuna-san made this too?] Shia

[Yes . For children’s play equipment . I don’t know, but she said it would serve as a learning experience as well . ] Fina

[Certainly . This reminds me, if I play this game without planning ahead, I won’t be able to win . So if I want to win, I’ll have to think a lot . ] Shia

Yuna-oneesan said that her brain developed by thinking from a young age . That’s why she said that both Reversi and Trump playing cards are the best games to help us think .

And the Trump playing cards seem to be about studying numbers .

This game needs you to add and subtract numbers from the cards . Everyone wants to play, so they’re trying to learn how to add and subtract real hard .

So the children in the orphanage are able to do simple additions and subtractions .

After that, they study letters in the picture books . But the Bear-san’s picture book is embarrassing because I’m included in it . Of course, there are other picture books, but Bear-san’s picture books are popular .

Yuna-oneesan, are you still going to draw the continuation of the picture book?

[Even so, Yuna-san, she’s late . Is she okay? Hugging Bear-chan, is she okay outside?] Shia

<Kuu~n>

Shia-sama asked Hugging Bear-chan, but Hugging Bear-chan cried with a relaxed face . The face he made gave a sense of security and made us feel at ease .

[If Hugging Bear-chan say so, I wonder if she’s okay . Even though I want to go and check outside, the door won’t open . ] Shia

[Yes . Only Yuna-oneesan can open it to prevent thieves from entering . ] Fina

[But if something happens to Yuna-san, can we get out of this room?] Shia

We can get out through the hidden door . But I can’t say that yet .

[Yuna-oneesan is strong, so it doesn’t matter what kind of monster comes at her . ] Fina

[Yuna-san, she’s so strong even though she’s dressed like that . It was so amazing when she defeated the Black Tiger . She also has 100 corpses of Wolves after she subjugated those by herself . ] Shia

She has also defeated Tiger Wolf, Black Viper, Goblin King, and Scorpion . Yuna-oneesan is really amazing .

[If anything happens, I think Yuna-oneesan will retreat . ] Fina

[That’s right . She’s strong enough to defeat the Black Tiger . But will she be okay against Volcrows?] Shia

[Shia-sama, are Volcrows strong?] Fina

I haven’t heard much about Volcrows, so I don’t know how strong they are .

[I don’t know . It’s a threat to ordinary people . But I wonder if it will pose a danger to Yuna-san? Yuna-san can use swords and magic . And she’s strong enough to beat the knight captain Rutum-sama, so I think a Volcrow is as good as an ordinary crow to her . ]

Rutum-sama must be the knight that Yuna-oneesan fought at the school festival . The match at that time was amazing . Yuna-oneesan was so cool .

[Then, let’s keep playing until Yuna-san returns . I won’t lose this time . ] Shia

And so, we played reversi and playing cards to keep ourselves busy .

After a while, the bear door opened .
