Harem Party Rosa’s Viewpoint    

I am Rosa, a magician and adventurer.     

Together, I am in the party with Blitz as our leader, Ran, another magician, and Grimos, a swordsman.     

We work in various places and visit multiple places.     

However, we were currently lost in the middle of nowhere.     

“Where are we?” (Rosa)     

“We’re lost.” (Ran)     

“I’m sorry!” (Grimos)     

Ran explained the situation to me, and for some reason, Grimos apologized.     

“It’s not your fault, Grimos.” (Blitz)     

“It’s my fault for suggesting to Blitz that we should go to another port town.” (Ran)     

“No, I’m sure everyone had no objection to that.” (Blitz)     

We were not lost in the royal capital, or in a town, or in a forest, but we lost our bearings in the world itself.     

…     

(T/N: Flashback.)    

Our party often went to different places instead of settling in an area. After finishing our work in Mileela, we came to Crimonia through a tunnel with a stone statue of a bear, aiming for a new town. Then, after that incident, we traveled freely to the royal capital and various other places while earning money as we went.     

Some time ago, we received commissions in the desert town. At that time, we met Yuna-chan, with whom we had defeated bandits in the town of Mileela.     

At that time, we were happy and surprised to meet someone we knew so far away from home.     

Her bears could move across the desert as well.     

After reuniting with Yuna-chan and parting ways, we continued to visit various places, crossing deserts and moving from one town to another. Then we arrived at a large port town by the sea.     

Unlike the town of Mileela, this port town was lively and crowded.     

However, if the Kraken were to appear, it was quite possible that many of the people here would lose their jobs, be stranded on the roads, and go out of business.     

Looking out at the sea, we started to miss the town of Mileela.     

Since we travelled quite a distance, we decided to head back, so we asked people at the port about the route to Mileela, but the people here didn’t seem to know about Mileela at all.     

It would have been nice if we could have taken a ship back to Mileela from here, but it did not seem like we could take the easy route back.     

But the townsfolk did say that there were ships that went to other port towns.     

“Those other port towns might know about the town of Mileela, so let’s go there.” (Blitz)     

At Blitz’s suggestion, we boarded a merchant ship as an escort for the ship. We might as well earn money and get a free ride by escorting the ship.     

We heard that there were pirates on the sea, but the chances of being attacked were slim. We thought it would be an easy job, but unfortunately, we were attacked by pirates.     

For some reason, the ship we were escorting allowed the pirate ship to approach freely, and we had to fight the pirate ship to defend our ship.     

To minimize damage to our ship while we were fighting, we decided to move the fight to the pirate ship by jumping to their ship.     

Blitz and Grimos fought in the front, while Ran and I supported them from the rear lines with magic. The pirates flinched from our unexpected counterattack. To be fair, pirates were weak in terms of individual strength. The only advantage they had over us was their superior numbers.     

However, being on a rocking ship was troublesome.     

Running on a ship caused people to lose their balance. The same would happen when they wielded weapons because of the unstable ground they were on.     

Ran and I were fine because we were just shooting magic from behind, but Blitz and Grimos were having a little trouble when they got on the ship.     

We worked in tandem to ensure we took pirates out individually, reducing their number.     

Just when we thought we could defend the merchant ship if we kept going, the merchant ship suddenly started to move away from the pirate ship, leaving us behind on the pirate ship.     

By the time we realized it, it was already too late to jump over to the merchant ship.     

We screamed, but the merchant ship left us and moved away from the pirate ship.     

In a nutshell, they pushed the pirates toward us and ran away to save their skin.     

After defeating all the pirates, we tied them up, negotiated with them, and got them to move their ship to the port of the nearest town.     

On the way, unfortunately, the weather changed, and a storm broke loose, destroying the ship’s sails. We were cast adrift, losing control of our destination.     

We thought we were going to die, but a passing fishing boat rescued us, and we somehow made it to the harbor town safely.     

We delivered the captured pirates to the security forces and thought we were safe, but this port town was just a small port town, and not the one where we came from.     

There was no trade with other towns, and no ships were going to Mileela, let alone to the port town we had sailed from.     

We had no way to return home.     

Worst of all, we could not spend the money we had.     

We researched the area while selling our possessions and earning money at the Adventurers’ Guild.     

This was a small country, and few people knew about other countries. We had some information about the guilds, but we were unable to get any information about how to return home.     

To find a way to return home, we decided to go to the capital of this country.     

We thought that we might be able to get some information about how to return to our original country in this country’s capital.     

We moved along, escorting the wagons that travelled between the cities.     

As we were escorting the wagon for the first of several times, a monster appeared. We got off the carriage and fought the monsters.     

While we were fighting the monsters, the carriage we were escorting fled, leaving us behind as if using us as bait.     

I would like to ask if it was a custom in this country to utilize escorting adventurers as decoys to escape from danger?     

Well, I knew that I was exaggerating it. We have had many escort requests before we came here. Some of them were kind. Some gave us a lot of money for nothing.     

Some were good, some were bad. We could only say that we were unlucky this time, too.     

After defeating the monsters, we walked along the road and took turns sleeping at night, but monsters sometimes continued to attack us.     

Our bodies were tired, but we decided it was better to move on, so we started moving as soon as the sun rose. We were lucky enough to be picked up by a horse-drawn wagon on our way.     

The driver said he was going to sell vegetables to the town from a nearby village.     

We took advantage of their kindness and were allowed to ride in the wagon.     

We all fell asleep in the wagon, partly because of the battle with the monsters, partly because we could not sleep, and partly because we were tired from walking.     

When the owner of the wagon woke us up, the wagon had stopped at the entrance of an unknown town.     

After thanking the man for giving us a ride, we got off, and the wagon drove into the town.     

The rest of us also decided to enter the town to gather information.     

We asked the gatekeeper the town’s name, but it was not a place we knew of.     

The chain of us becoming lost had gone so far that I could only think we might be cursed.     

At the entrance to the town, we were told some advice, so we tried to ask back, but people were entering the town from behind us, so we could not ask, and we were forced to enter the town.     

***     

(T/N: Back to present.)    

“If that merchant ship hadn’t left us on the pirate ship, none of this would have happened.” (Rosa)     

“If we hadn’t crossed the desert…” (Ran)     

“We shouldn’t have boarded that merchant ship.” (Grimos)     

“It’s no use saying it now. If we keep going, surely a path will open up. If we don’t give up, we can make it back.” (Blitz)     

Blitz’s optimism may be a relief, at least. It was better than being gloomy.     

They knew it wouldn’t be easy, but they would return to their hometown even if it took years.     

“If I can’t go home anymore, I’ll have to live here alone with Blitz.” (Ran)     

“Wait, what are you talking about?” (Rosa)     

While I was thinking positively, Ran said something outrageous.     

Blitz would never marry Ran.     

Because with me…     

“Let’s talk about the future some other time. It hasn’t been decided yet that we can’t go back.” (Blitz)     

Blitz, who had no sense of the air, said something brainless.     

I casually looked at the other side of the street and saw a girl dressed as a cute bear walking.     

“Oh, I’m hallucinating Yuna-chan walking over there.” (Rosa)     

It seemed I was mentally disturbed enough to hallucinate.     

Yuna was a strange girl I met in the town of Mileela. She was dressed as a cute bear, but she was a strong girl.     

I have seen many countries and cities, but I have never seen a girl dressed like that.     

So I think I’m hallucinating.     

“I am also seeing Yuna walking around.” (Ran)     

Ran said while looking in the same direction.     

It appeared that Ran was also tired and was hallucinating like me.     

I wanted to see Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear. I would like to fluff them up. I would like to hug them.     

That girl was holding an animal, a bear.     

It felt like a bear was holding a bear.     

“To me, it looks like Yuna herself.” (Grimos)     

It appeared that even Grimos had finally started hallucinating.     

There was no way Yuna-chan would end up in a place like this. After all, it was a place which we didn’t even know where it was located.     

“We’re probably just tired. Let’s go rest at the inn.” (Rosa)     

“No, that’s really Yuna, isn’t it?” (Blitz)     

Even Blitz said something like that.     

“Hey, you guys, look properly.” (Rosa)     

I looked again at the person who resembled Yuna-chan. ???????.???    

She was dressed like a bear. Her costume with that slightly bulging belly… That cute-looking girl.     

Before I realized, I was already running.     

As I got closer, I could tell.     

There was no doubt.     

It was Yuna-chan.     

“Oh, Yuna-chan～～～～～～!” (Rosa)     

I hugged Yuna-chan.     

“Rosa-san?” (Yuna)     

“Wow, it’s Yuna-chan. It’s the real Yuna-chan.” (Rosa)     

Yuna-chan looked at me with a surprised face.     

It was definitely the Yuna-chan I knew.     

Yuna-chan was puzzled, but she followed my lead and Ran, who noticed me hugging Yuna-chan, also hugged her.     

“It’s really Yuna!” (Ran)     

“Why are you two here?” (Yuna)     

That should be my line.     

Why was Yuna-chan here?
