“Ha~a, it feels good.” (Yuna)

“Yes, it feels good.” (Fina)

“Kuu~n“

Fina and I, along with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, are visiting a hot spring in the Land of Harmony.

It's a blessing to be able to soak in a hot spring early in the morning.

“Why are you in the hot springs this early in the morning?” (Kagali)

Kagali-san, who is still in a little girl form and in the same hot spring, asked out of randomness.

I sometimes come here at night, but it's certainly rare to bathe in a hot spring in the morning.

“Even if you ask why, it's because there's a hot spring there.” (Yuna)

I'm not sure if the inhabitants of this world can understand this, but I tried copying a certain quote.

“Well, this house is yours, so I don't have a say on it.” (Kagali)

I guess it didn't get through.

“Well, I just wanted to go to the hot springs.” (Yuna)

“Yuna-oneesan invited me.” (Fina)

“Kuu~n“

“As expected, I don't understand a word you bears say.” (Kagali)

I think the nuance was that they were saying I invited them.

“I was planning to go out with Fina, but before that.” (Yuna)

I took a proper bath last night, but when I woke up, I wanted to take a bath, so I couldn't help it. And when Fina came to my house, I took her straight to the hot springs.

“Are you guys going somewhere?” (Kagali)

“Yeah, well~” (Yuna).

Today, we are supposed to go to Targui to pick fruits and other things. I also tried to invite Shuri, but she was away from Tirumina-san until the other day, so she's been all over Tirumina-san since she got back.

That's why I decided to take Fina and go fruit picking together.

“I don't know where you're going, but I'm free, so I'm going to go with you.” (Kagali)

Since Kagali-san no longer has the job of managing and guarding Orochi's seal, she seems to have too much time on her hands, like a retired person.

Well, she's been on duity for a long time, so I think she has now the right to take it easy.

“You're coming too, Kagali-san?” (Yuna)

“What? Is there something wrong?” (Kagali)

“Not that there's anything wrong with it.” (Yuna)

She knows about the bear gate, but my only problem is that the place we're going to is Targui.

“But we're just going to pick some fruit.” (Yuna)

However, Kagali-san reacts to my words.

“Hoho~u, fruits you say? Is it delicious?” (Kagali)

“It's delicious, I think.” (Yuna)

I look at Fina next to me and ask for her confirmation.

“Yes, it's good. It's very delicious.” (Fina)

“Then, I shall go with you.” (Kagali)

I couldn't find any reason to refuse, so it was decided that Kagali-san would go with us.

When I got out of the hot spring, I didn't have time to dry Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear with a hair dryer, so I dried them using the unsummoned and resummon trick. However, it seems that Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were dissatisfied.

Apparently, they were expecting to get dried with a hair dryer and brushed after taking a bath.

But that takes time. And since we don't have time, they just have to give up.

Then, each of us, dressed in our own clothes, came to Targui island.

Incidentally, I asked Kagali-san to wear children's clothes, not oversized adult clothes. It's difficult to move around in oversized adult clothes when picking fruits; they will only get in the way.

As we stepped out of the bear house in Targui, Kagali-san scurried around, fox ears perked up, nose sniffing.

She looks like a dog. No, I mean a fox.

“I can hear the waves. And I can smell the tide. Is the ocean nearby?” (Kagali)

As I thought, she might as well be a dog.

Well, I'm not going to tell her that, because she'll get angry if I do.

“Yeah, well, I guess the ocean is close.” (Yuna)

“You have been vague in your answers since a while ago. Is this a place you don't want people to know about so badly? I'm not going to tell anyone about it, and even if I did, I wouldn't be able to come here.” (Kagali)

“Well, I guess.” (Yuna)

Even if she knew, it would be difficult to come here. After all, it's a moving island.

“Kagali-san, do you know anything about Targui?” (Yuna)

“Targui? I think it is the name of a giant creature in the sea. I know at least that much.” (Kagali)

The legend of Targui seems to be alive and well in the Land of Harmony. As Shia remarked, there are those who knew about it.

“But why did that name come up?” (Kagali)

“Etto, because you're stepping on that Targui, you know?” (Yuna)

I was a little worried, but I thought it would be fine if it was Kagali-san, so I answered honestly.

“…………”

Kagali-san's eyes became dots.

“Really?” (Kagali)

“Really.” (Yuna)

When I said it with a serious expression, Kagali-san's body launched upwards to the sky.

And after looking around the whole thing from the sky, she floated down.

“We really are on top of Targui.” (Kagali)

Unexpected words came out of Kagali-san's mouth.

How can she tell that it's Targui just by looking at it from above?

“By any chance, do you know about Targui? Or rather, have you ever been here?” (Yuna)

Otherwise, just by looking at it, there's no way to tell that this place is Targui.

“I've been living in the Land of Harmony for a long time, and I like to take walks in the sky in my spare time.” (Kagali)

She said she takes walks in the sky.

People normally don't walk in the sky, you know?

But Fina and I ignored it.

“And during one of my walks in the sky, I discovered a strange island near the Land of Harmony. I thought I knew everything about the surrounding islands. It suddenly appeared. As I tried to explore it, however, the island started to move so I couldn't investigate it. Then a few years later, it reappeared. At that time, I investigated and found out that it was Targui.” (Kagali)

Come to think of it, the reason I discovered the Land of Harmony was because of Targui.

“But you have done a vulgar thing, building a house on top of Targui.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san said while looking at the bear house.

I heard about Targui from Shia, but I couldn't come up with anything other than a legendary creature. I guess for those who know about it, perhaps Targui is treated as a divine or a sacred beast, perhaps?

“But the fact that we're on Targui means you came to the Land of Harmony riding it…” (Kagali)

I nodded.

“What Sakura said, “it came from the sea in my dream”, made sense to me now. And I thought you came on a boat, but she said you came across the sea on a bear.” (Kagali)

“When I was on this island at that time, I saw a land, so I went there and found myself in the Land of Harmony. But I never thought I would get caught up in all that trouble.” (Yuna)

“Fufu, if Targui hadn't brought you there, the Land of Harmony might have perished. I'm grateful to Targui.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san laughed.

“Well, Kagali-san, I understand why you know about Targui. So, because of that reason, I would appreciate it if you don't tell anyone else about it. Especially Shinobu.” (Yuna)

“Yeah, I know. Besides, it's not an easy thing to talk about.” (Kagali)

“It's just for confirmation, but is it okay to stay on top of this?” (Yuna)

“Well, I'm sure it's alright because I've been up here before and nothing happened to me. Besides, if anything should happen, we can escape through your door.” (Kagali)

Certainly, if a wyvern attacks like before, all we have to do is run away.

“Then, Kagali-san, do you know about Kryna-Hark?” (Yuna)

“I haven't heard of this name for a long time. If you're asking if I know him, then yeah.” (Kagali)

I asked about the stone monument, but she interpreted the question differently.

“Have you perhaps met him before?” (Yuna)

Kagali-san ponders about my question.

“Hmm, it's a secret. Rather than that, let's go pick some fruit. Come on.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san started walking to dodge the topic of Kryna-Hark.

Did they perhaps meet on Targui?

But why dodge the topic?

I was curious, but even I have one, two, three, four… Right, I have a lot of secrets.

I don't really need information about Kryna-Hark right now, so I decided to follow Kagali-san without forcing her.

“There really are a lot of fruits here.” (Kagali)

Apples, oranges, bananas, peaches, wild strawberries, and various fruits.

Well, this is all thanks to Kryna-Hark planting all of it.

“Kagali-san. If you've been to Targui, you should know about them, right?” (Yuna)

“I don't think these were here when I came here. Or maybe I just didn't notice them. Besides, it was moving, so I couldn't stay for that long.” (Kagali)

It's also a mystery when Kryna-Hark was here in the first place.

It looks like Kagali-san won't answer even if I ask, so maybe I should ask Shia next time.

“Hugging Bear-chan, I'm going to stand up, don't move.” (Fina)

“Kuu~n“

Fina stands on Hugging Bear and picks fruits such as apples and orens.

Kagali-san flies through the air and picks fruit from high places.

It's really convenient to be able to fly.

I use earth magic to build a staircase and pick the ones high above.

And the fruits that we have picked are gathered at Swaying Bear's side.

“Yuna-oneesan, is this enough?” (Fina)

Fruits are lined up like a fruit shop in front of Swaying Bear. It's like a bear opening a fruit stall, it's a heartwarming sight.

“Thanks to both of you, Fina and Kagali-san, we were able to get a lot. Thank you.” (Yuna)

“Kuu~n“

“Of course, Hugging Bear, thank you for your help.” (Yuna)

“Kuu~n“

“You too, Swaying Bear, thank you for keeping the fruits.” (Yuna)

“”Kuu~n“”

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear cried happily.

“But can you eat that much?” (Kagali)

“My item bag is special, it won't rot or get damaged, so it's okay.” (Yuna)

I flapped my bear puppet's mouth.

“It's fine as long as you don't waste food.” (Kagali).

“Well then, let's have lunch.” (Yuna)

We come to the coastline and have lunch with bread and freshly picked fruits while looking at the sea.

“Delicious.” (Kagali)

“It's always good to have a meal outside.” (Fina)

Both Kagali-san and Fina are enjoying the food.

I'm not stealing Fina's words, but it's strange because eating outside makes the food taste more delicious.

Besides, the breeze feels nice.

I take out my knife and cut an apple to make a rabbit.

“What's that?” (Kagali)

“A rabbit.” (Yuna)

“It certainly looks like a rabbit.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san takes the rabbit apple and puts it in her mouth.

“It's a little sour, but delicious.” (Kagali)

Fina is staring at the apple.

“Maybe you've never heard of rabbit apples?” (Yuna)

“No, I know. However, I'm just thinking that Yuna-oneesan can easily make anything.” (Fina)

“It's not that difficult. Just cut it like this.” (Yuna)

I carved it in front of Fina.

“Like this?” (Fina)

Fina imitated and tried to make rabbit apples.

“You're good at it.” (Yuna)

When we were making rabbit apples, Kagali-san opened her mouth in amazement.

“Can you guys make that much and eat it all?” (Kagali)

“Uh~” (Fina)

There are a lot of rabbit apples in a row.

Admittedly, we made too much.

I'm going to ask Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to help me here.

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear happily ate the rabbit apples.
