『Sera……it looks like you did it again………』

Nononono, I didn’t do it! I shook my head!

『But I can feel the magic of Sera in the from these three bears, especially the two little ones though?』

“Are you saying that I transferred my magic power to these bears, just like that time with Small Dragon-sama? That’s why I can talk to them?”

I held my head with both of my hands. Nick suspiciously stared at me. Stop that! I didn’t do anything wrong! Probably……

『Do you know who I am?』

『Of course I do. The guardian of all beasts, the Holy Beast of the West.』

『Yeah. So, where did you meet my Sera? 』

『……Was our benefactor, the princess, the contractor of the West? I thought she was the master of the King of the East Seas.』

King of the East Seas? Miyu-tan?

『Miyu……that means you ran into her on the Marshe continent?』

『Yes, Marshe, in the forest on the outskirts of Torkun, even though I was carrying the babies in my stomach, I got chased out of my nest by humans and was about to die from starvation along with the babies in my stomach, right then someone appeared in front of my eyes. In desperation, I attacked them……they were the princess and the King of the East Seas. They open-heartedly forgave me and provided me with enough food to hibernate and granted their blessing to the children inside my stomach. 』

“Ahhhh!”

I gave you a Devil Boar! I remembered it! There was something like that!

“So you’re the bear mom from that time! You made it through the pregnancy! That’s great, so great! But wait a minute, what are you doing here? Do you know how many thousands of kilometers away Marshe is from this place? There’s even an ocean in between!”

『When the children became 1 year old and their bodies became strong enough, we left the forest of Marshe and followed the magic power of the princess to this point. I was uneasy about crossing the ocean, but unexpectedly, I was able to swim……it’s probably due to the divine protection of the King of the East Seas.』

Kyaaa! The King of the East Seas is too omnipotent!

『……So, what do want to do when you meet Sera?』

『Although, when I met her again, the princess turned out to be the contractor of the Holy Beast of the West. I know that the princess herself, as well as the Holy Beast’s power, could never be measured. However, I really, really wanted to help you! We will never forget your favor! 』

Ah! I’m pretty sure you said it at that time! So the bears want to return the favor!

“Umm, Serafi, can talk to a bear as well. Platinum is so awesome.”

“No, Alma, that’s wrong! This guy is just special. Serafi, give us a little explanation!”

I explained to Alma-chan and Nick about my encounter with bear mom in Marshe and that the mother had traveled 11,781 kilometers to visit me in order to return the favor.

“What’s that?… That’s too abnormal……”

“……Hey, Alma, we’re the only ones who are sharing this feeling of exhaustion……”

The two of them are talking in a small voice. I’m not that unrefined as to eavesdrop on a lover’s conversation! Ehem!

The next thing I know, the bear cubs are scratching the tips of my boots with their claws in a reserved manner.

I stared at the little guys. The fluffy mofumofu that are only around the height of my knees. They have the same pitch-black, round eyes as mine. They’re a boy and girl twins. They’re so cute!

『Princess』

『Princess』

 “Fufu, I’m not a princess. My name is Sera.”

『I like Sera a lot.』

『I like Sera, thank you for helping us.』

I patted the head of the two of them who are acting spoiled while licking……hmm???

“Eh? These kids can talk too?”

『The children are better than me. Since they have directly received the prayer of the princess and the King of the East Seas.』

Have an easy childbirth! Be born healthily! Is it because of that time when I patted the stomach of the bear mom?

“Appraisal!”

Both of them glowed blue.

◯◯  (Bear Cub < Spirit, The Follower of the Contractor Serafiona and Miyu)

State: Inborn Blessing

Skill: Health, Swimming, Water Magic

△△ (Bear Cub < Spirit, The Follower of the Contractor Serafiona and Miyu)

State: Inborn Blessing

Skill: Health, Swimming, Water Magic

“『……』”

Water magic and swimming, that’s because of Miyu-tan’s divine protection right. Huh? I can’t read their names.

“Bear mom, what are the kids’ names?”

『Princess, would you please name them.』

Eh, you didn’t name them? That must have been so inconvenient this past year……

I looked at Lu and he nodded his head as if this is bothersome.

“Then, how about Maru for the girl and Shuu for the boy? Because we met at Marshe!”

“ “『Ehhhhh!!!』” ”

『How simple……』

“Twist the names a bit more!”

“Maru-chan and Shuu-chan……well, you won’t forget their names though…….”

『I’m Maru.』

『I’m Shuu.』

Their bodies glowed and their fur changed from brown to jet black. I got an unpleasant hunch again, which I’m already used to.

“……Appraisal”

It glowed blue, of course.

Maru: (Spirit, a Child Named by the Contractor Serafiona, The Follower of Serafiona and Miyu)

State: Inborn Blessing

Skill: Health, Swimming, Water Magic

Shuu: (Spirit, a Child Named by the Contractor Serafiona, The Follower of Serafiona and Miyu)

State: Inborn Blessing

Skill: Health, Swimming, Water Magic

『They’ve become a spirit. Blowing away the normal evolution path that an animal usually goes through in order to become a spirit……』

“It’s the power of giving a name⁉ Is that my fault!!!”

『Princess, would you please give me a name as well!』

Haaa……I can’t name her kids and say no to naming their parents. I can almost 100% imagine what’s going to happen.

“Well, okay. Then, I’m just going to name you Bear Ma……hiiii”

Lu and Nick are staring at me with a terrible face! I’ll think about it seriously! Even though I have no sense of naming!

『T, then, since you’re a very kind mother, in contrary to your strong appearance……how about Cocoa? 』

『Cocoa……』

Cocoa, aka bear mom, also glowed and became larger, her fur color changed from brown to chocolate.

Since she didn’t absorb my magic as much as Maru and Shuu did, so I predicted that she wouldn’t be completely black.

Delighted, Maru and Shuu hugged Cocoa.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Understanding that Cocoa and her children would never raid the wolf’s territory, the leader of the Kakure Wolf returned to the wilderness. Now they should be able to return to their normal lives.

Then, we went back to the guild.

I, Lu, Nick, and Alma-chan. Then, Cocoa, Maru, and Shuu. Also, Grandpa Sieg and Lara-san. Of course, the guild master’s room would feel small.

“So, princess, what you are saying is that these bears are no longer bears, but spirits, and that they’re going to protect the land of Trundle?”

Grandpa Sieg asked while holding back his comments.

“Yes. All three of them want to work for me. Also, I’m thinking about having Cocoa to constantly guard my grandmother. She’s strong and seems atrocious, which is perfect for my grandmother, right? Spirits will never betray you, right?”

“Hm……mm……”

“So, I’m thinking about leaving Maru and Shuu to Alma-chan and Nick.”

“What?”

“Se, Serafi!”

“Maru and Shuu are both still small, so why don’t you teach them about everyday life? That being said, these kids are spirits, and there is a lot that we need to learn. Please nurture and raise them. This is my request as a Lord. Ah, please take care of them in the guild or in grandmother’s mansion when they are at school. Cocoa will also be relieved this way.”

I’m definitely not pushing this onto you, you know?

Both Nick and Alma-chan look slightly uneasy.

“Nick, Alma-chan, it would be better for you to train in magic manipulation every day in order to be able to communicate with these kids. Of course, I’ll take care of them too. Ah, the food for the kids can be Nick’s magic power that is uselessly discharged, they can eat that on their own. If that’s not enough, then they can eat mine too.”

“Mine? Wow!”

Maru and Shuu licked Nick’s cheeks from both sides. They could see Nick’s orange magic power. Spirits would never betray the human who had given them magic power.

“Fufu, you’re so cute.”

When Alma-chan smiled, Maru jumped and hugged Alma-chan. Un, they seem to be compatible. Shuu also seemed like he liked Nick (his magic?).

Spirits do not approach people with a lot of negative emotions in them.

Grandpa Sieg passed me and looked at Lu, who is on my shoulder. Lu nodded at him. Grandpa Sieg sighed.

“Princess……no, Lord, I understand. The spirit brings light and blessing to us. Let’s take good care of them and have them become the strength of Trundle. Dear Spirits, I look forward to working with you.”

“Thank you, guild master!”

“By the way, Lord Serafiona?”

Lara-san smiled and talked once the conversation had finished.

“Yes”

“The wolves were so upset by the intrusion of this father and son bear spirit that the wolves got upset and swarmed them, but it’s settled, right?”

“So the conclusion of this commission is that the wolves were upset because of the invasion of this parent-child bears that became spirit, but the problem was resolved.”

“Yes!”

“But you said that you didn’t bring home the materials from both leaders that the commissioner had expected.”

“Th, that’s because we talked it out, so I can’t exterminate them…….”

“Then, the reward for the commission was 500,000 gold including the materials, so subtract the materials and you get 100,000 gold. Then subtract 10,000 gold as the fee to take care of the bears, and the remaining is 90,000 gold, and divide that into three equal parts, so that’s 30,000 gold for each of us.”

“Eehhhhhhh! That can’t even cover the interest!”

“Oh, you have a complaint, even though I’m taking on the role that is hated for the sake of the healthy management of the Trundle Guild?”

“N, no, no complaints.”

“Lord Serafiona, please strive to do more okay?”

『……Don’t mind, Sera』

“Don’t mind, Princess.

“Don’t mind, Serafi.

“Umm…… don’t mind?

『Serafiona-sama, don’t mind. 』

『『 Don’t mind! Don’t mind! 』』

I, it’s okay as long as I work more right! Uwaaann!!!

◇ ◇ ◇

『May I call you Lu-sama? 』

Lu’s eyebrows were raised as he looked at Cocoa.

『Serafiona-sama once muttered when she saved us, “I wonder……if Lu would praise me.”』

『……I see.』

Lu dazzlingly stared at his beloved child.
