Chapter 320: 320 Bear-san Gets the Crystal Plate.

After getting out of the ground, I looked around.

[Um, here?]Yuna

When I looked behind me, there was the pyramid. But theres no entrance. Apparently, I am at the backside of the pyramid.

Is everyone at that side?

I went through great lengths of killing the Scorpion, just to see that theres n.o.body here to welcome me.

Using the Bear Detection Magic, I found multiple human reactions near the entrance of the pyramid.

I closed the hole where I climbed. I summoned Swaying Bear, ride him and went to the entrance of the pyramid.

Swaying Bear, dashes in the desert with

.

There were only 5 reactions picked-up by the Detection Magic. I cant see Uragan when I searched.

Did he finished dismantling and returned to the city?

While riding around the pyramid on Swaying Bear, a white thing was coming from the front with a great speed.

Its a Bear!

No, its Hugging Bear.

Hugging Bear whos carrying Karina, was das.h.i.+ng in the desert with sand smoke behind him. Theres the figure of Karina, whos doing her best to prevent her from being shaken off so hard.

Well, you wont fall even if you dont cling to him, but it seems that Karina doesnt look so good.

I got off Swaying Bear.

If this keeps up, Hugging bear and Swaying Bear will collide with each other.

[Hugging Bear. Stop, Stop! STOP!!]Yuna

Hugging Bear slows down and stops, then he rubs his face against me.

[Hugging Bear, Im back.]Yuna

I stroke Hugging Bears head and scratch his chin. Hugging Bear is very happy.

[Youve properly protected Karina. Thank you.]Yuna

While I was holding Hugging Bear, Karina clung at Hugging Bear and looked at me.

[Yuna-san!?]Karina

After she descends from Hugging Bear, Karina embraces me.

[Yuna-san, you were safe. I was so worried.]Karina

Hugging Bear rubs his face against me.

In addition, Karina hugs me as well.

[Both of you, calm down.]Yuna

[Yuna-san!]Karina

I cant take it anymore and fall on my back. Of course, I could push them back if I really want to, but I cant do that to Karina and Hugging Bear.

When I fall on my back, they fall on top of me.

Swaying Bear looks at me.

[Swaying Bear, sa~ve me~e.]Yuna

When I asked Swaying Bear for help, he just cried

and doesnt try to help me.

How awful.

In the meantime, I told the two of them to get up and help me stand up.

I seem to have caused a lot of worry.

[I am glad youre safe.]Karina

Karina has tears in her eyes.

While she Im patting her head and comforting her, Jade-san and the others comes riding on the Ragaroot.

[Yuna!?]Jade

[Hugging Bear-chan suddenly ran off, so I thought something mustve happened.]Mel

[I was surprised when Hugging Bear started running.]Senia

Jade-san, Mel-san and Senia-san came.

However, Toya is not here.

[Etto, I just returned.]Yuna

[So why is Yuna here outside? We were waiting for you at the entrance.]Jade

[Its a ha.s.sle to go back the way we came from, so I dug a hole with magic.]Yuna

[In just a short time.]Mel

Mel-san has an amazed expression.

I feel that I had a similar exchange before.

[So did you defeat the monster?]Jade

[Yeah, I already did.]Yuna

Everyone was surprised at my word.

[So then, Jade-san and the others, can I ask you to dismantle it? Of course, Ill compensate you for it.]Yuna

I cant dismantle it. But, I cant take it back to Crimonia and ask Fina.

Though once we got back to the city, I can just ask Balima-san to hire someone to dismantle it. That is, until they see the Scorpion.

Itll become troublesome in various ways. So I should just ask Jade-san and the others who already knew about the Scorpion.

[You dont need to compensate us. Its enough to have the experience of dismantling that monster.]Jade

[Even if weve experienced it, I dont think were going to dismantle that kind of monster again in the future.]Mel

Jade-san and his party are willing to accept the dismantling job.

We will move to the entrance of the pyramid to do the dismantling. When I try to ride Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear sadly cried

.

Hugging Bear doesnt want to let go of me.

It looks like he wants me to ride him.

[Hugging Bear-chan. It was fine if it was at the beginning, but Ill be lonely if you leave me half way.]Karina

Today I asked Hugging Bear to escort Karina, so I didnt ride him.

[Karina, can you ride on Swaying Bear this time?]Yuna

[Y-yes. I understand. Swaying Bear-chan, please.]Karina

Swaying Bear gladly obeyed. Karina climbed on him.

Yeah, Im glad Swaying Bear wasnt selfish.

Even though they both want me to ride them, I only have one body.

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were also saving me from trouble. When I ride on Hugging Bear, he runs happily.

Karina is riding on Swaying Bear.

[Wai, please wait.]Jade

Jade-san and the others followed.

When we arrived at the entrance of the pyramid, Toya stood there alone.

[You guys are so cruel. Leaving me behind.]Toya

[Because Hugging Bear-chan suddenly starts running.]Mel

[You were sleeping.]Senia

Mel-san and Senia-san gave Toya a cold treatment .

But he was sleeping while people were fighting?

However, I cant really say that myself because I was sleeping until a while ago.

[I cant help it. Im tired of dismantling.]Toya

[Well, everyone feels the same.]Senia

[Jade~.]Toya

Toya looks at Jade-san for help.

[Ah sorry, I forgot.]Jade

[Jade~.]Toya

Toyas cry was dispersed in the desert.

Well, I left Toya alone and decided to look around.

[Um, what about Uragan and his party?]Yuna

They didnt show in my Detection Magic earlier, so I asked them.

[Theyve finished dismantling, so they went back to the city. At first I said something like wait for Yuna-chan, but it seems like theyre too tired doing dismantling.]Mel

[We helped with the dismantling as well.]Toya

So Toya got tired and went to sleep.

Well, before that, he might have been tired from fighting monsters or being on high alert all the time.

When you think about it, Jade-san and the others are amazing.

[So Yuna, where do you want to dismantle it? you have it, dont you?]Jade

I nod to Jade-sans words. They already know that I have a high capacity item bag that can fit the Black Viper and big worm inside.

[If were outside, the sand will stick to it, is it better inside that pyramid?]Jade

[Thats right. We have to make sure that its safe and wide enough.]Mel

I dont have a problem with that.

Nodding to Jade-sans proposal, the dismantling site was moved to the area near the entrance of the labyrinth.

When we arrived at the entrance of the labyrinth, I took out the big Scorpion from the Bear Box.

[You really killed it.]Jade

[Uwah, its so big.]Toya

Everyone goes around the Scorpion.

[It doesnt have a tail. Did you cut it?]Mel

[Theres a knife in its back.]Senia

Senia-san, who was searching the back of the Scorpion, noticed.

But it didnt do much damage.

[But wheres the fatal wound?]Senia

[Its the tail, isnt it?]Toya

[If you can kill it with just cutting the tail off, no one will have a hard time.]Senia

[Then how did she kill it?]Mel

Everyones eyes turned to me.

[Thats a little bit]Yuna

[[[[]]]]

Everyones gaze hurts.

I cant really say that I drowned it in seawater using the Bear Gates.

When it entered the Bear Box, the seawater seems to have been excluded and the Scorpion was not wet either. However, there is a possibility that the seawater is in its body.

I didnt think of it too much.

I hope the sea water doesnt come out from it.

I prayed to G.o.d.

The Bear G.o.d who seemed to have brought me to this world came to mind.

Very unlikely to be reliable.

[But Yuna-san, this really is such a big monster]Karina

Karina tried to touch the Scorpion with her frightened little hands.

Looking at such figure, a mischievous mind springs up.

I gently and quietly move behind Karina and close in at her ear, then

[

UWAA

!!!]Yuna

[Kya!]Karina

Karina sat down in her surprise.

[Are you okay? ]Yuna

[Yu- Yuna-san..]Karina

Karina looks at me with teary eyes.

I think I did a little too much.

[Sorry.]Yuna

[Yuna-san, is so terrible. I thought I was going to die.]Karina

[Sorry, sorry. When I saw Karina, who was cautiously trying to touch it, its so cute, I just cant help it.]Yuna

[No, its not funny. I was really scared. I thought I was going to die.]Karina

[Did you wet yourself by any chance?]Yuna

I asked in a small voice.

Karina blushes in my words.

[No I did not! I dont know Yuna-san anymore!]Karina

Looks like shes really angry.

It was just a joke, but it failed splendidly.

[Karina, Im sorry. Karina was just so cute.] Yuna

[I dont want to be told that by Yuna-san, whos wearing such a cute outfit.] Karina

Karina doesnt want to face me.

Its difficult to handle a 10 year old girl.

How was I when I was 10 years old?

I might need a memory jog.

Yeah, I was a pretty girl. Its true!.

[I want to quickly start the dismantling.]Jade

Jade-san and his party, were looking at us with dumbfounded face.

[[Im sorry.]]Karina & Yuna

Me and Karina bowed down and apologized to Jade-sans group.

[So we just need to take out what Karina is looking for?]Jade

[I dont mind.]Yuna

Karina looks at me.

Certainly, the dismantling of the Scorpion is not included in this request.

[Its fine because itll take a lot of time. Ill do that when I return to Crimonia.]Yuna

I really want to ask them, but.

Even if I ask Fina, it is unlikely that she can do it alone.

If I ask Gentz-san or the Adventurers Guild, it will turn into chaos if they saw the Scorpion, so its better to ask Jade-san and his friends.

But it would take some time to dismantle the big Scorpion. Therefore, the crystal plate takes priority today.

[Karina. Do you know where it is?]Jade

When asked by Jade-san, Karina approached the Scorpion.

And she walks around it.

[Its around here.]Karina

She points behind the Scorpion, near the tail.

[Here? Then we have to remove this sh.e.l.l. Toya help me remove the sh.e.l.l here.]Jade

The Scorpion has a sh.e.l.l thats connected together, similar to the crayfish and shrimp, the tail is bend.

And there were grooves at the joint.

Jade-san was instructed to remove the second sh.e.l.l from the back. When Jade-san and Toya took out their knives, they stabbed it into the groove.

[Its too hard]Toya

[Senia and Mel we need your help.]Jade

[Cant help it then.]Mel

4 people worked together to take off that part of the sh.e.l.l.

Again, looking at the sh.e.l.l, it is almost 10cm thick. Its not enough to stab it lightly with a knife.

Jade-san dismantles as Karina directed, revealing a pale blue crystal plate.

[Th, thats it!]Karina

Karina runs happily and receives the crystal plate.

Of course, Mel-san washed it with water before handing it over.

It was good that the seawater did not came out.

If it came out, the explanation will be long and troublesome.

[This ends the request.]Jade

[But this sh.e.l.l is really hard.]Toya

Toya was banging it hard.

[Thats right. Its even lighter than iron and might be perfect for making armors.]Senia

In the game, you can make armors with the materials of the monster you defeated. Now, what kind of armor can you make with whats in front of you?

[Of course, Im good with a light armor.]Toya

[It may be even lighter.]Senia

[Then, Ill give the peeled sh.e.l.l to you and your party Jade-san.]Yuna

[Are you sure?!]Toya

Toya was the one whos pleased, not Jade-san.

I dont need it anyways.

[No, we cant accept this. This was defeated by Yuna.]Jade

[Jade,

J-chan

was about to give it to us.]Toya

Toya was the one who want it the most.

[Then will you please listen to me?]Yuna

[A request? ]Jade

[Can you not tell anyone that I have defeated this Scorpion.]Yuna

[Why not? Dont you want to report it to the adventurer guild?]Jade

[I wont. If I report it, it will be a hefty lot of trouble.]Yuna

[I dont get it. You should be proud of it.]Toya

[If Yuna-chan doesnt want us to tell anyone, then we wont tell anyone. If you dont want it then go ahead and tell everyone.]Mel

[No, I want it.]Toya

Everyone looked at Toya.

[I wont talk, even if I dont receive the sh.e.l.l.]Toya

[]

I wonder about that. Unlike Jade-san, you cant trust Toyas words.

Jade-san thinks deeply.

[But then you have to ask Uragan and his party as well.]Jade

[Does Uragan knew about the Scorpion?]Yuna

[Oh, when he heard that Yuna wasnt here with us, I told him that you were left behind fighting that.]Jade

If so, do we need to shut him up?

[Well, lets talk about that after we return.]Yuna

I put the Scorpion back in the Bear Box, including the sh.e.l.l that they removed.

After that, were going to use the crystal plate map to replace the magic stones, but that would still be a secret.

And besides, its almost time for the sun to set.

We need to temporarily return and report to Balima-san.

Authors Note:

She asked Jade to dismantle the Scorpion and successfully retrieved the crystal plate.

It may be a necessary skill for adventurers.

It seems that the reservation of 5 volumes has begun.

The cover is white Yuna and Hugging Bear. It is a pure white combination.

Please wait a while for information on store benefits.

I will report as soon as I get the news of it.
