Chapter 759
Bear-san Goes to the Pyramid
“Just like Shuri said, it’s full of sand.” (Noa)
Noa and Misa, who had left the city, looked at the desert that spread out before them.
Noa crouched down and touched the sand.
“It’s hot.” (Noa)
Misa, Shuri, and Fina also touched the sand after hearing Noa’s words.
“You’ll get burned, so be careful.” (Yuna)
I had also touched the sand before, and it was very hot.
“The sand goes on forever.” (Noa)
Noa and the others looked into the distance.
“Even so, it’s hot.” (Noa)
“Yuna-oneechan, don’t you have a cloak?” (Fina)
“A cloak?” (Yuna)
“A cloak that cools you down.” (Fina)
“…” (Yuna)
The last time I came here, I was thoroughly prepared, but I didn’t feel hot, so I forgot about the need for a cloak that cools you down.
I took out cloaks that cools you down from the bear box and handed them over to Fina and the others.
“Touch the magic stone inside the cloak.” (Yuna)
Fina and the others put on the cloaks and touched the magic stone inside them.
“It’s cool now.” (Noa)
“There are magic lines sewn into the cloaks, and the water magic stone is used to cool it.” (Yuna)
Now it was okay to go outside the town.
“Also, don’t forget to drink water if you get thirsty.” (Yuna)
I handed everyone a water bottle filled with chilled water.
Noa and the others calmed down and looked at the desert.
“It’s all sand, but is that triangular building over there the one Shuri was talking about?” (Noa)
Noa’s line of sight was pointed at the pyramid.
“It’s big.” (Noa)
“What is that? Does anyone live there?” (Misa)
“No one lives there.” (Yuna)
“From what you said earlier, you went there with the adventurer we just met, right?” (Noa)
“Yes. Shall we go closer?” (Yuna)
I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear.
I, Fina, and Shuri went to ride on Swaying Bear, while Noa and Misa were on Hugging Bear.
There might be some small worms in the sand, so I used my detection skill to check for monsters in the vicinity.
There were some reactions, but they were far away. They also didn’t seem to be approaching.
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear ran across the sand and soon reached the pyramid.
“I knew it was big, but it’s huge when you get close.” (Noa)
“Yuna-san, what is this?” (Misa)
“I don’t know the details either, but it seems to have been here even before the town was built. So no one knows who built it.” (Yuna)
“I see.” (Noa)
“I wonder who built it and for what purpose.” (Misa)
“Well, maybe we can ask Ruimin’s grandfather?” (Yuna)
“Mumroot-san?” (Noa)
“A long time ago, Mumroot-san went inside this pyramid building, and when he reached the deepest part, he found a magic circle and a magic tool that could create a lake, and then at that time, he activated them which resulted in the creation of that lake.” (Yuna)
“It’s the lake that the birds were swimming in!” (Fina)
“So that’s why there’s a lake in such a sandy place.” (Noa)
“The lake attracted people and the town was built around it. The town was built by one of Mumroot-san’s fellow adventurers, and now it seems to be protected by that person’s descendants.” (Yuna)
“So that’s how the town was built.” (Noa)
History often passed without anyone knowing.
For most people, the history of how the town was created was not relevant. It was not useful for their current lives. For most people, who their current lord was had more importance.
“That’s the entrance.” (Yuna)
We had reached the entrance to the pyramid.
“Can we go inside?” (Noa)
“Yes, we can. But there are monsters, so I don’t want to go in.” (Yuna)
“Monsters…” (Noa)
“Well, looking around the entrance is fine, so let’s go.” (Yuna)
Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, carrying us, moved towards the entrance of the pyramid.
“Eeek.” (Misa)
“Misa, what’s wrong?” (Noa)
“Oh, over there…” (Misa)
Misa was pointing at a big lizard called Lagarut.
“This should be a Lagarut left by the adventurers who went inside. As I said before, there are monsters inside, so it’s also a hunting ground for adventurers.” (Yuna)
“So, Yuna-san, did other adventurers fight each other to hunt monsters?” (Noa)
“My work was a little different, but for most, I think that’s roughly what happens.” (Yuna)
That time, Uragan was with us only up to the entrance of the pyramid. I went inside with Jade-san and the others, but when facing the Giant Scorpion, I fought it alone.
“Well, it’s about time we head back.” (Yuna)
After visiting the pyramid, we returned to the town.
After un-summoning Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, we entered the town.
“What shall we do now?” (Yuna)
“Shall we just walk around the town?” (Noa)
“Or is there a place you’d recommend for us to visit?” (Misa)
Actually, after visiting the pyramid, I was thinking about going to see Carina. Just as I was about to say that to Noa and the others…
“Yuna-san!” (???)
A brown-skinned woman in her 20s called out to me. I was surprised to see the woman.
“Rosa-san?” (Yuna)
“As expected, it is Yuna-san.” (Rosa)
Rosa-san smiled happily.
Rosa-san was Carina’s maid, working in the lord’s mansion in this town.
“Did Yuna-san come here to visit the town?” (Rona)
“Yes, I’m here to tour with these girls.” (Yuna)
I turned my attention to Fina and the others.
“It’s Fina-chan and Shuri-chan. I’m glad to see you again.” (Rosa)
“Rosa-san, it’s been a while.” (Fina)
“Yes.” (Rosa)
Fina and Shuri greeted her.
“Yuna-san, who is this person?” (Noa)
Noa asked, looking at Rosa-san.
“Well, when I said I know a girl in this town, this is the maid who serves under her.” (Yuna)
“My name is Rosa. Yuna-san saved the town.” (Rosa)
“I’m Noa. Nice to meet you.” (Noa)
“My name is Misa.” (Misa)
“They’re very polite.” (Rosa)
Rosa-san was surprised by Noa and Misa’s polite greetings.
They were young ladies after all. Even their greetings were different from common folk.
“So why is Rosa-san at the entrance to the town?” (Yuna)
The mansion where Rosa-san worked was in the center of the town, so it was far from here.
“I was shopping when I met Uragan-san, who told me that Yuna-san was in town.” (Rosa)
I see, the information came from Uragan.
“So, I asked the gatekeeper which direction Yuna-san went, and he informed me that Yuna-san had gone outside the town, so I was waiting for you to come back. I think Carina-sama would be sad if she found out later that Yuna-san had come to the town but couldn’t meet her.” (Rosa)
In other words, she came to secure me.
“Yuna-san, what are your plans after this?” (Rosa)
Rosa-san probably wanted me to visit Carina.
I looked at Fina and the others.
“I was planning to go see Carina for a bit. Is that okay?” (Yuna)
I checked with Fina and the others.
“Yes, I don’t mind.” (Noa)
“Me too.” (Misa)
“I want to see Carina-chan too.” (Fina)
“Me too!” (Shuri)
Everyone seemed fine with it.
“Is it okay if we all go?” (Yuna)
“No problem. It would be a problem if Yuna-san didn’t come.” (Rosa)
We decided to visit Carina.
Rosa-san walked in front, and we walked behind her.
“Yuna-san, what kind of person is Carina-san?” (Noa)
“She’s the daughter of the lord of this town. Have you met her?” (Yuna)
Noa and Misa were the daughters of noble families.
Maybe they have met her in the royal capital.
“No, I’ve never met her.” (Noa)
“What about her father, Balm-san?” (Yuna)
“Father or Mother may have met him, but I didn’t.” (Noa)
“The same for me.” (Misa)
Well, Noa and Misa basically lived in their own towns. Carina was also the same. They probably wouldn’t meet unless there was some kind of special event in the capital.
Ellelaura-san might only see Carina’s father at work.
“Carina is a kind girl who cares about her family. Also, she’s the type to keep things to herself.” (Yuna)
She was a girl with a strong sense of responsibility who kept her worries to herself and tried to solve them on her own.
“Yuna-san helped Carina-sama get rid of the troubles that she had been facing for some time.” (Rosa)
Rosa-san, who had been listening to me, spoke as if to supplement my explanation.
“You’re exaggerating.” (Yuna)
“That’s not true. If things had continued as they were, Carina’s heart would have been crushed, and it would have become irreparable. Yuna-san saved Carina’s heart, which we could not have done anything about.” (Rosa)
Carina thought that she had dropped the precious crystal plate that had been passed down through generations of her family and kept in the basement of the pyramid. She believed that this was the reason why the water in the lake in the town gradually decreased.
She felt responsible because it was not easy to go underground where the crystal plate was dropped.
“That’s why we are grateful to Yuna-san.” (Rosa)
“Yuna-san helped many people even when we didn’t know about it.” (Noa)
“It was the same in the Land of Wa.” (Misa)
Noa and the others looked at me with respect.
Don’t look at me like that, I simply did it on a whim.
We arrived at the lord’s mansion in the center of the town while talking about Carina.
