Chapter 754

Noa Shares a Secret

Published: 5 March 2024

 

"Hehe, it’s fun." (Sakura)

 

Sakura said with a big smile.

 

"I also have fun. I get to talk with everyone and go out with them." (Noa)

"I can't believe we're all playing together even though we live so far apart." (Misa)

"That's right. I never thought that Sakura-chan, Noa-sama, Misa-sama, and Luimin-san would talk together." (Fina)

"I never thought I would get to know not only Fina-chan, but also Noa-chan and Misa-chan." (Luimin)

 

Misa, Fina, and Luimin-san shared their thoughts on my words.

 

"It's thanks to Yuna-san that we were able to have such a strange experience." (Luimin)

"If it wasn't for Yuna-sama, I wouldn't have been able to get to know or talk to Fina, Shuri, Noa, Misa, and Luimin-san." (Sakura)

 

Luimin-san and Sakura said while looking at me.

 

"But there was one person who had a strange experience, traveled here and there, and got to know everyone." (Noa)

 

Everyone looked at Fina.

 

"That’s because Yuna-onee-chan told me it was a secret." (Fina)

 

Fina looked troubled.

It's pathetic to tease her too much.

 

"Fina, I'm just kidding. Don't make that face." (Noa)

"Fina-chan was just keeping Yuna-onee-sama's promise." (Misa)

"On the other hand, if you had kept telling Yuna-san’s secret, I think we would have looked down on Fina." (Noa)

"That's right. Yuna-sama trusts Fina and tells her secrets without using contract magic." (Sakura)

 

Fina's face, which was troubled by Misa and I's words, changed to a happy expression.

 

"But I think the reason Yuna-onee-chan didn't tell Noa-sama and Misa-sama is because she couldn't talk easily. A movable door is convenient. That's why she said it could be abused." (Fina)

"Abuse.... That's right."

"If you can put it anywhere you want, you can break in at any time."

"Also, if your father finds out, he might think about using the door to make money. If that happens, there will be no need for adventurers to take away the merchants’ jobs and protect them, and there will be no need for adventurers to protect the merchants. I think there will be no horse-drawn carriages either."

"If that happens, more people will lose their jobs."

 

Now that if Father knew about that door, I didn't think he would use it for something like that, but I didn't know.

 

"Noa-sama, Misa-sama. I don't think your fathers would do something like that." (Fina)

 

Misa and I seemed anxious, so Fina said to cheer us up.

 

"…Thank you, Fina." (Noa)

"I'm glad to hear that." (Misa)

 

Father was working as a lord, thinking about the people living in Crimonia.

I didn't think he would take away the jobs of the residents just because he knew about Yuna-san's door.

 

"They're both just kids, but they're amazing." (Shinobu)

 

Shinobu-san, who was listening to our story, looked impressed.

 

"Also, if I may say this from an adult's perspective, you can run away in an emergency." (Shinobu)

"That's right. When I was in danger, Yuna-san told me to use that door to escape." (Noa)

 

Yuna-san had to fight the person who had captured Prim's sister, and I used the door to escape to Yuna-san's house in Crimonia.

As Shinobu said, you could avoid danger by running far away.

 

"Also, if there is a war with another country. You can send soldiers without using a ship. That door can be used for both good and bad things." (Shinobu)

 

That's what I thought too.

When I went deep into the mansion to find Prim's sister, I thought I could take Blitz and other adventurers with me.

 

"I think that's why Yuna-san only told to people she believed in."

"We just met, so she couldn't talk easily to us."

 

Yuna-san also used contract magic with Sakura.

I didn't think it's something that could be easily talked about. I had to remain silent in order to respond to Yuna-san's feelings for believing that I didn't have to use contract magic.

 

At first, I thought it was a good thing because I could go anywhere easily, but that could be good or bad.

I was able to reaffirm that this was not something I could easily talk about to other people.

 

"Fina-chan, who was told first, is the one Yuna-onee-sama trusts the most." (Misa)

 

It's frustrating, but Misa was right.

Yuna-san always cherished Fina.

 

"I’m number two!" (Shuri)

 

Shuri raised her hand and looked happy.

From what I heard, it seemed like Shuri was the second to know.

 

"In the first place, we may not be the only ones who know." (Luimin)

 

Luimin-san said so.

 

"I found out today that Noa-chan and Misa-chan know about the door." (Luimin)

"I just found out recently." (Noa)

 

If it wasn't for the fairy incident, I didn't think she would have told me.

 

"I just found out about it a few days ago, too." (Misa)

 

Misa came later.

 

"Fina, who else know about it?" (Noa)

 

I asked Fina, who I thought knows the most.

 

"Well, all I know is everyone here." (Fina)

"I see" (Noa)

"Also, I don't know if you asked or not, but my uncle knows. That's why he gave Yuna-sama free access to that mansion." (Sakura)

 

If you live far away, you won't get suspicious if you come and go.

 

"I don't know if anyone else knows about that door." (Fina)

 

When Fina said this, Shuri raised her hand.

 

"Shia-neechan!" (Shuri)

"My sister!? Does my sister know!?" (Noa)

 

I was shocked that she knew about it before I did.

 

"Ah, um, Shia-sama knows that the door exists, but she doesn’t know that you can go far with it." (Fina)

 

Fina corrected Shuri's words.

She explained why she knew about the door and why she didn't know that it's a door that could take you far.

Apparently, it happened when we went to Mileela town with Fina and the children from the orphanage.

There, Fina and my sister told us about how they were attacked by monsters when they went to a small island. At that time, she apparently used the door to let my sister escape to a faraway place.

That's what was happening at that time.

Apparently, she didn't tell us because she didn't want us to worry.

 

"Shia-sama thinks it’s a sturdy room next door." (Fina)

"But, in reality, it was in a faraway place. That means that my sister has seen that door and even used it, but she doesn't know that it was actually moved to another place." (Noa)

"Yes" (Fina)

 

After that, we talked about various things. Then, I made a decision.

 

"Sakura, Luimin-san, may I have a moment?" (Noa)

"What'll we do" (Sakura)

"Yes" (Luimin)

"I present this to you as a token of our friendship." (Noa)

 

I gave Sakura and Luimin-san my cards.

 

"What's this?"

"It's a certificate of love for bears." (Noa)

"Bear's Fan Club." (Shuri)

 

Shuri answered before I could explain.

That's what I wanted to say.

 

"Member number 0008" (Sakura)

"I'm 0009." (Luimin)

 

Sakura was number 8 and Luimin-san was number 9.

 

"Member number 1 is me, the president. And number 2 is Fina, the vice president." (Noa)

"I'm number 3." (Misa)

"I’m number 4!" (Shuri)

 

Everyone showed their membership cards.

They were carrying it around properly.

That's great.

 

"By the way, member number 5 is Sherry, the girl who made the Kumayuru-chan and Kumakyu-chan stuffed animals that were in Sakura's room, number 6 is my sister, and number 7 is my mother." (Noa)

 

"That's all there is yet. You said we were aiming for 10,000 people, so I thought there would be a lot." (Fina)

 

Fina asked.

 

"At first, I tried to give it to someone who loves Yuna-san, Kumayuru-chan, and Kumakyu-chan. But if I did that, there was a chance that Yuna-san would find out." (Noa)

"You're still planning on keeping quiet, aren't you?"

"It’s unofficial."

"I think she's already noticed."

 

I ignored Fina's words.

 

"Also, this incident made me realize that there are some pieces of information that we can share that we can't share with others." (Noa)

"That's right. Especially this time."

"So, I decided to make people who know Yuna-san's secrets into members." (Noa)

"In that case, we won’t be able to reach 10,000 people, but is that okay?"

"At first, I tried to expand the Bear's circle, but there were some things I couldn't talk about. As the president of the Bear's Fan Club, that would be discriminatory. I feel like that wouldn't work. In that case, I will create a fan club with only people who know Yuna-san's secret." (Noa)

"I don't know about Sherry-chan, Shia-sama, or Ellelaura-sama..." (Fina)

"Let's put that aside for now. Please keep it as a temporary matter." (Noa)

 

I'm sorry, sister and mother.

I apologized from the bottom of my heart.

 

"Thank you. I will treasure it."

"If anyone goes to Land of Harmoni, I will also give you the newsletter."

 

I had to make a newsletter about this time as well.

But if someone saw us, we would be in trouble, so we had to think about it carefully.

 

"Um, don’t I have mine?" (Shinobu)

 

Shinobu asked while looking at the Bear's Fan Club membership card.

 

"Um, Shinobu-san is Yuna-san's enemy? You're a rival, and you don't like Bear..."

 

This was called Bear's Fan Club, but it was also Yuna-san fan club.

 

"That's not true. I love bears." (Shinobu)

 

Shinobu hugged Kumayuru and Kumakyu.

 

"Kuu~n" (Both Kuma)

 

Kumayuru-chan and Kumakyu-chan shook their heads and denied it.

 

"That's terrible. I love you, Bear. I love you." (Shinobu)

 

We all agreed that we did not give Shinobu-san her Bear's Fan Club membership card.

As Yuna-san said, Shinobu-san was shady.
