Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Chapter 382 – Bear–san, Talks to Tirumina

Chapter 382  Bear-san, Talks to Tiruminsan

I have never gone to Targui ever since I got back to Crimonia. I may be a little worried, so today I will invite Fina to go to Targui.

Early in the morning, I went to Fina's house and invite Fina.

[So, It's only Oneechan today?] Shuri

When I invited Fina to go out, Shuri speaks with a lonely expression. Certainly, I often take Fina with me and have Shuri stay at home. In Shuri's eyes, it may seem that Fina and I are always going out together.

[I want to go with you too.] Shuri

Don't look at me with such sad eyes. If we're going out on Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, I'll invite you to come along. This time I'm thinking of going to the island of Targui using the bear gate. If I bring Shuri with us, she will learn about the bear gate.

Hmmm, what should I do?

[Can't I?] Shuri

Shuri looks down with a sad expression. Fina gently hugs the sad Shuri.

[Yunoneesan, I'll stay with Shuri today.] Fina

[Oneechan……] Shuri

I can't really separate the sisters who are so close to each other. And Shuri did not tell anyone about the last time we went to Targui. Shuri is not a child who breaks her promise. So I made my decision.

[…Okay. Let's go together with Shuri, but you have to promise me one thing.] Yuna

[A promise?] Shuri

[Yeah, I have a secret. And I want you to keep that secret from Tiruminsan and Gentz-san.] Yuna

To prevent her from talking about the bear gate to anyone, I need her to make a promise.

[From mom?] Shuri

[Yeah, keep it a secret to both of your mom and dad.] Yuna

[Ara, that's quite an interesting topic you're discussing.] Tirumina

[…………] Yuna

From behind, I heard the voice of a person whom I don't want to hear at this moment. Looking back slowly, I saw Tiruminsan.

[What secret are you keeping from me?] Tirumina

[…………] Yuna

They said humans couldn't make a voice whenever they were surprised, in my case, that seems to be true.

[Mom, um… this is…] Fina

Fina tried to explain, but she can't speak clearly and kept stuttering.

[Why is Tilminsan here? What about work?] Yuna

[Today, I left Liz in charge so I can take care of my house's garden. Then I noticed that Yunchan had come to visit. And while I was listening to your conversation, you mentioned keeping something a secret from me. When I heard it, as a mother I couldn't just ignore it, so here I am.] Tirumina

When I thought she went to work on managing the orphanage's clucker eggs, she was actually in the backyard.

Certainly, as a mother of a little daughter, it is unavoidable to be worried when someone asked her daughter to keep a secret.

[It's okay to go out with Yunchan, but as a parent, I'm worried about the words you spout just now. Even though it's Yunchan, I'm not letting my daughters do bad things.] Tirumina

As a mother, Tiruminsan asked me with serious eyes.

[We're not doing anything wrong.] Yuna

[Then why do you need to keep it a secret from me and Gentz?] Tirumina

[It meant not only to Tiruminsan and Gentz-san but everyone in general.] Yuna

[I trust Yunchan, but can't you really tell me what that is?] Tirumina

[…………] Yuna

I was thinking of telling Tiruminsan about the bear gate, but she doesn't give me time to think about it.

[Fina, you're not doing anything wrong, are you?] Tirumina

[Yes, I wasn't.] Fina

[Then you can tell it to me.] Tirumina

[That is……] Fina

Fina got squeezed by her mother, but she's keeping her promise to me. When Fina looks at me and Tiruminsan alternately, she looks down.

[Fina…] Tirumina

At this rate, a fissure will be created between the parent and her child.

[Tiruminsan, stop asking Fina. I asked Fina to keep quiet about it because it's my own secret. So Fina is just keeping her promise with me.] Yuna

[Yunchan's secret?…] Tirumina

[It'll be a bit of a problem if people knew about it.] Yuna

Tiruminsan glances at me and Fina.

[…Haah, I get it. Fina, stop looking like that, mother was wrong. Fina just tried to keep Yunsan's secret.] Tirumina

[Mom……] Fina

Tiruminsan smiled gently and placed her hand on Fina's head.

[Yunchan, it's not something really bad or dangerous, right?] Tirumina

[I swear it to the bear god.] Yuna

But I'm a bit reluctant to make Fina keep a secret from Tiruminsan anymore. So, I made up my mind.

[Tiruminsan, will you come to my house?] Yuna

[Yunoneesan!?] Fina

Fina was surprised by my sudden announcement. I can't keep quiet about it anymore. I'm also afraid to make Fina keep lying. Besides, it'll become difficult for me to invite Fina otherwise.

[Is it okay? I do want to know about Yunchan's secret, but you can't tell it to others, right?] Tirumina

[Thinking about the future, it's better to let Tiruminsan know about it. Also, I'm reluctant to keep asking Fina to keep it a secret and I was planning to tell Shuri anyway, but please keep it a secret to others. I'm begging you.] Yuna

[If my lifesaver, Yunchan, asks me, then I'll keep quiet about it. But is that really okay?] Tirumina

[It's okay, just keep it a secret.] Yuna

[I understand. I swear to the bear god not to tell anyone.] Tirumina

Tiruminsan jokingly says and her smile was sparkly.

I went back to Bear House with Tiruminsan, Fina, and Shuri.

[But do we need to go to Yunchan's house?] Tirumina

[It'll be faster if I just show it and I don't think you'll believe it even if tell you anyway.] Yuna

[Now I'm getting nervous about that thing. You have too many secrets about you, Yunchan. So I'm worried about what you're going to tell me.] Tirumina

Do I have that many secrets?

Family, place of origin, bear costume, strength, money, cooking recipes, healing magic, summoned bears, bear phones, well now that I think about it I am full of secrets. Until now, I have not been asked thoroughly, but it may have been that Tiruminsan was just anxious.

When I arrive at the bear house with Tiruminsan, Fina, and Shuri, we entered the room where the bear gate was located.

[It's a big door, but the door has a shape of a bear. So what's with this room?] Tirumina

[Well then, Tiruminsan. Where do you think this door is connected if I open it?] Yuna

[Where? The next room, isn't it?] Tirumina

Tiruminsan gives an answer using common-sense. No one would think that the end of this door leads to Mereera or the royal capital.

[This door is a magical tool that connects to the places where the same door is located, and I can use this door to go far away places.] Yuna

In my explanation, Tiruminsan looks at Fina once and then looks back at me with a serious expression.

[…She's not kidding.] Fina

I nodded.

[I thought Yunchan was a really mysterious girl, but she's even more mysterious than I imagined. So where is this door connected?] Tirumina

[I installed one in every place I've been to. Like the royal capital or Mereera. Would you like to go somewhere?] Yuna

[Then, Mereera please.] Tirumina

I opened the door while imagining the town of Mereera. Beyond the door was the room next to my room inside the Bear Building in Mereera. We moved to the next room and opened the window. The view of the blue sea spreads beyond the window.

It's the sea where we played during the employee trip.

[It's the sea~!] Shuri

Shuri shouted while looking at the sea from the window.

[I never thought that you were lying, and now that I actually experienced it, I couldn't find the words to say. Moreover, Fina knew about this.] Tirumina

[Yeah, I'm sorry.] Fina

[Don't be mad, because I'm the one who asked her to keep quiet about this.] Yuna

[I'm not mad. I'm actually glad she kept her promise with Yunchan. I'll scold her if she told your secrets to the others.] Tirumina

Tiruminsan strokes Fina's head.

[Mom……] Fina

Fina smiles brightly at Tiruminsan. Even families have their own secrets. But I don't want the relationship between Fina and Tiruminsan to worsen because of me.

[But I feel like she chose Yunchan over her mother, so I'm a little sad. I wonder if this is the beginning of my daughter's growth and separation from her parents.] Tirumina

[U~u ~ Mom.] Fina

Fina got embarrassed.

[But I'm pretty convinced by this because sometimes she answered vaguely when I asked Fina,] Tirumina

[Because I can't say we went to the royal capital.] Fina

It seems that Fina had a lot of trouble. But with this, Fina and Tiruminsan no longer have any disputes. From now on, Fina can talk to Tiruminsan a lot of things without telling a lie.

Then, I took everyone to the royal capital. And the first one to let her voice out was Tiruminsan.

[The house in the royal capital is also a bear, huh.] Tirumina

Tiruminsan looks at the bear house in the royal capital. Bear houses are built in Crimonia, Mereera, the royal capital, the elf village, Targui, and many other places. That's because I went to many places.

[Mom, you can see the castle.] Fina

In the direction where Fina was pointing, we can see the castle where the king lives.

[I can't take any more of this. I can't tell anyone about this. Fina and Shuri, you can't tell this to anyone. Keep your promise with Yunchan.] Tirumina

[Even Dad?] Shuri

Shuri asks. That's right. There was Gentz-san. I didn't forget him. Although I sometimes forget about his existence.

[I want you to keep it a secret.] Yuna

[Yeah. Let's keep this a secret between girls.] Tirumina

[Okay.] Fina

[Un, girls!] Shuri

It helps, but I don't know. Is it because I feel pity for Gentz-san?

Then we went back to Crimonia after visiting the royal capital.

And on their way home.

[As expected, looking like a bear really stands out.] Tirumina

She told me with a calm voice.

Author's Note:

In episode 382, Tiruminsan and Shuri learned about the Bear Gate.

Yuna can now use Bear Gate with Fina and Shuri anytime.

But only Gentz-san was left in the dark…
