Chapter 9

Chapter 9 – Fina’s Perspective 1

Mother’s medicine has run out .

We don’t have money to buy more medicine .

I live with my mother and younger sister .

I don’t have a father .

It seems he died while my mother was pregnant with my younger sister .

I don’t remember him too much .

Mother can’t work due to her illness .

I’m working hard instead .

However, there’s not much a 10 year old like me can do .

Sometimes, Uncle Gentz lets me help with skinning for the guild .

Uncle Gentz is my mother’s acquaintance .

He is always kind .

He gave me the medicine last time, and the time before that as well .

I can’t depend on him any more .

I have no other choice but to go outside of the city and pick herbs .

I saw the herbs in the guild a lot so I can recognize them .

I went out of the city and headed straight for the forest .

Monsters live deep inside the forest, so I decided to only look for the herbs near the entrance of the forest .

I have trouble finding them .

I will go a little deeper inside .

There it is!

I can give mother this for medicine .

I was fascinated with the herb and didn’t notice I had been surrounded by three Wolfes .

I can’t possibly defeat them, so I try to flee .

My legs are trembling, I collapsed .

It’s no use .

「Somebody, help me…」

The Wolfes came closer .

Just when I thought it was already over, a Wolfe screamed and collapsed .

In an instant, all three Wolfes have collapsed .

Why?

A figure in black? has come out .

It has a somewhat lovely appearance .

「Are you okay?」

It spoke .

「Th, thank you very much?」

「Why a question?」

「Will you eat me?」

「I won’t eat you . 」

「Are you Bear-san?」

I started smiling, probably out of relief .

The person dressed as a bear is a woman called Yuna-san .

When she took off her hood, I saw a beautiful woman with black hair .

She was so beautiful that I was surprised .

I have never seen a person as beautiful as her .

It seems that Big Sis Yuna came from the countryside and lost her way in the forest .

Thank you for being lost .

Apparently I can show her my thanks by guiding her to the city .

If she requested money, I wouldn’t have been able to pay her . I don’t have any money .

I’m glad she is a good person .

Big Sis Yuna ignores the Wolfe corpses and walks away .

Please wait .

You can sell Wolfe meat and fur .

Meat ——– is delicious .

When I explain, she says that she can’t do it .

Probably some young miss .

If you look at the beauty hidden under the bear, it’s understandable .

I receive Big Sis Yuna’s permission and start working on the Wolfe .

Furthermore, it seems that I will receive half of the money it’s sold for .

It will be enough to pay for food for a few days .

I’m very happy .

I go back to the city after skinning them .

It seems that Big Sis Yuna doesn’t know a lot of things .

She asks many questions .

She may be the daughter of some noble after all .

We enter the city and go to the guild to sell the Wolfe materials .

Uncle Gentz was angry .

I made him worry, so it was inevitable .

The Wolfe materials were sold, with a little left for me to take .

Of course, I got Big Sis Yuna’s permission to take it .

We can finally eat meat, after such a long time .

I’m thankful to Big Sis Yuna .

I hand half of the money to Big Sis Yuna but she asks me to guide her to an Inn instead of taking it .

I show her my gratitude and guide her to an Inn .

It’s a place between my home and the guild .

A good aroma always comes out of there when it’s time for a meal .

It has a good reputation so I decide to guide her there .

When we arrive at the Inn, everyone turns their attention to us .

It’s probably because Big Sis Yuna is dressed in unusual clothes .

If I met Big Sis Yuna in the city, I would also definitely stop and look .

It’s a little embarrassing, but it’s a request from my benefactor .

This much attention is nothing .

After guiding her to the Inn, I thank her and return home .

I make medicine from the herbs .

I can’t make high quality medicine, because I’m not an expert, but it was able to ease mother’s sickness a little .

It’s nutritious meat for the first time in a while .

I also earned money .

I will be able to buy something nutritious tomorrow too .

I’m thankful to Big Sis Yuna .

I wake up early in the morning the next day .

This is the usual routine .

It’s in order to look for work at the guild .

The Inn I guided Big Sis Yuna to is on the way .

I want to give my thanks again .

Big Sis Yuna is going to the guild to get an identification card . Since I’m going there too, we go together .

I wanted to hold hands, but I endure it .

That Bear-san looks so soft . I’d like to hold it at some point .

When we arrive at the guild, we separate because I’m meeting Uncle Gentz .

Unfortunately, there wasn’t any work for me .

I wanted to give up and go back home, but the guild suddenly became noisy .

When I went to find out what had happened, I heard that Big Sis Yuna is fighting with the adventurers .

I wonder why it happened .

I hurry up and run to the practice field .

When I arrived, Big Sis Yuna ran over to me while smiling .

She wanted me to lend her my knife, so I give it to her .

There isn’t a reason to decline .

The match was held .

It was Big Sis Yuna’s overwhelming victory .

The Bear punch was awesome .

There was no need for the knife .

When the match is over, she gave the knife back to me .

Big Sis Yuna went back inside to make the guild card .

I’m worried, so I wait outside the guild .

This time, she comes out without trouble .

I’m glad .

I hadn’t found a job today, so Big Sis Yuna asked me to guide her around town .

It seems that I will be rewarded .

Geez, because of Big Sis Yuna, my feet hurt so much that I won’t be able to sleep anymore .

After returning home, I go directly to bed .

First, we went to the weapon shop .

Big Sis Yuna bought a sword, 100 throwing knives, and a skinning knife .

She seems to be rich .

Also, the Bear-san is an item bag .

I’m surprised .

We went to the clothes store afterwards .

Does Big Sis Yuna have no sense of fashion?

I was asked to choose clothes for her .

I think that the Bear-san clothes are really cute . I wonder if she won’t wear them anymore?

Next was lunch .

She asked me to choose a place to eat, so I recommended the Inn she was staying at .

It was very delicious .

She even ordered dinner for my entire family .

After lunch, we went to the bookstore .

After ordering several books, today’s guidance ended .

It was over unexpectedly fast .

Big Sis Yuna wanted to read the books at the Inn .

I have a free afternoon .

I decided to get the meals from the Inn and go home early .

Mother and younger sister were really happy .

I hope tomorrow will also be as good .
