Bear-san Arrives At The Village

A villager welcomed us when we arrived at the village.

More villagers slowly came until a few dozen villagers had gathered.

Wasn’t this too much just for fetching us?

"Welcome to the village; we were waiting for you. I’m Kabos, the village chief."

The chief stepped forward and greeted us.

They must have been contacted in advance.

Even if it was just for a short while, the nobility from the capital’s academy came to visit. It was normal for this many people to gather, right?

The chief looked at us. When his gaze reached me, it stopped for just a moment before moving on.

Marcus stepped forward and stood in front of the chief.

"We came from the academy. My name is Marcus. What we brought is inside the carriage."

Marcus responded as our representative.

Now that I thought about it, wasn’t Marcus the leader of the party?

He was the one who gave orders during the fights and also decided on who would do what.

Sorry Shia, but it was Cattleya who seemed the most competent to me.

It was also like this in the game; boys were the leaders in almost every mixed party, right?

"Thank you very much. We will tend to the carriage right away."

When the chief said that, Timor, who was still holding the reins, climbed down from the carriage.

The chief then went to check what was in the carriage and tilted his head, confused.

"Is something wrong?"

"No, I just thought that there would be an adventurer inside the carriage. Is it possible that you came here by yourselves?"

Did he possibly think I was one of the students?

I wasn’t wearing the uniform, you know? I was a Bear-san, you know?

"But I heard that you had an adventurer escorting you…"

I see. So, the chief was looking for the adventurer, huh.

When he said that, the students all looked at me.

"The adventurer is right here."

Marcus looked at me with a difficult expression.

What was with that bitter smile of yours?

"Huh, are you saying that this missy is an adventurer?"

"Yep, more or less."

When the chief heard those words, his expression crumbled.

Not just the chief, all of the villagers also wore discouraged expressions.

"Are there any other adventurers?"

The chief looked around.

"Nope, only her."

When Marcus replied as such, the chief looked at me.

He then started to stagger as if he was about to collapse.

What!?

Wasn’t that really rude?

Looking at me and staggering as if he had recieved a shock…

He was shocked to hear that a girl like me was an adventurer, right?
