Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Chapter 544 - Bear-san, Makes Plushies

Chapter 544 - Bear-san, Makes Plus.h.i.+es

Bear-san, Makes Plus.h.i.+es

The next day, I invited Sherry to the bear house early in the morning to help her make a life-sized Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plus.h.i.+es.

Then Fina, whom I consulted about the present yesterday, and Shuri, who Fina invited, were already there.

“Well then, I’ll measure the size. Please don’t move, Swaying Bear-chan.” (Sherry)

`Ku~u ~ n’

Sherry takes out a measuring tape and begins to measure Swaying Bear.

“Swaying Bear-chan, please turn your feet this way.” (Sherry)

`Ku~u ~ n’

Starting with the sole of the right foot, the length of the foot, the thickness, and the size of various parts of the foot are measured. Swaying Bear followed Sherry’s instructions and moved his body to make it easier for her to measure his size.

Fina and Shuri followed Sherry’s instructions to measure Hugging Bear’s size. Since Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear have the same body shape, Sherry could have just measured one of them, but it was meant to be a double-check to avoid any mistakes. By double-checking the measurements, we can be sure that there will be no size mistakes.

Well, the real reason was that Shuri wanted to measure them as well.

I decided to let her do it because this was one of the things she could learn. This experience could be food for Shuri’s growth. The desire to do it is crucial.

Shuri made Hugging Bear sit down and pressed the measuring tape against him.

“Oneechan, is this good enough?” (Shuri)

“A little lower, maybe?” (Fina)

Fina answered while looking at Sherry’s instructions.

Sherry’s instructions were very detailed about what part of the body to measure. She even included a picture of a bear.

Sherry, on her own, was measuring the size of Swaying Bear, she’s swift and nimble. On the other hand, even when they do it together, Fina and Shuri can’t keep up with Sherry’s speed.

“Hugging Bear-chan, don’t wag your tail.” (Shuri)

`Ku~u ~ n’

Shuri tried to measure Hugging Bear’s tail, but the tiny round tail moved slightly.

“Shuri, you have to be gentle while measuring it.” (Fina)

“U~u, I know.” (Shuri)

It’s an amusing sight.

But since we can’t move on like this, I decided to help measure Hugging Bear too.

“U~u, you’re so big.” (Shuri)

“Shuri, give it here.” (Fina)

Shuri and Fina worked together to measure the torso.

Well then, I will help Sherry where she cannot measure by herself.

“Are you going to measure the size of his paws too?” (Yuna)

“Yes, I need it.” (Sherry)

Well, better to have it than not. If we’re going to make an exact replica, we’ll need it.

I followed Sherry’s detailed instructions on the paper and took the measurements.

Then, with some difficulty, and with the help of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, we finished measuring their sizes. The paper was filled in with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear measurements in different sizes. I thought about this when she made Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plus.h.i.+es before. If this had been my own body size, I would have to tear it up.

By the way, the sizes of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were within the margin of error. Shuri seems to have measured it correctly.

At least we can have a break now. It’s about time for lunch.

I prepared lunch. A simple lunch was served on the table.

“But are you going to make a stuffed animal this big?” (Sherry)

Sherry asked again, looking at the paper with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear sizes.

“Noa wants it. Sherry, if you say you can’t make it, then I’ll cancel it. Fina and I can’t make it by ourselves.” (Yuna)

Bear Sewing skill. With this, I can make plus.h.i.+es and other items that I imagine… Yeah, I wish I had something like that, but I don’t remember having such a convenient skill.

Well, even if I have it, there would be very few situations in which I could utilize it.

“No, it’s okay. I can make it. It’s just that I’m trying to figure out how much materials I’ll need for these stuffed animals compared to the ones I always make.” (Sherry)

Well, it’s not like I don’t understand her feelings. When people see something large, they tend to compare it with something else. Even in my former world, people often expressed as how many Tokyo Domes it would fit as a comparison. However, as I had never been to Tokyo Dome before, I could not imagine how big it was.

“But when it comes to something this big, the lighter the cotton inside, the better.” (Sherry)

“That’s true, if it’s heavy, it’ll be hard to move it, so it needs to be light.” (Yuna)

“The cotton we always use for Swaying Bear-chan and Hugging Bear-chan plus.h.i.+es would be too heavy.” (Sherry)

“Is there such a thing as light cotton?” (Yuna)

“There is, but it’s expensive.” (Sherry)

“As I told Fina, don’t worry about the cost.” (Yuna)

There were sales from the store and the percentage of the tolls for the tunnel to Mereera… And there’s also the money I brought from my original world. Of course, I also have a job.

One or two stuffed Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear was no big deal.

The question is whether we can make it and materials availability.

“I understand. Then I will ask Temoka-san for you when I return.” (Sherry)

After lunch, Sherry begins to make a pattern.

“I’ll be borrowing a table.” (Sherry)

Paper and tools for patterns are also provided, and Sherry draws patterns based on the measurements.

Basically, the process is the same as making small Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear plush toys, only bigger. They are made in parts and sewn together.

But this time, one part is bigger than the other.

“We’re going to need a bigger cloth.” (Sherry)

“Are we going to be okay?” (Yuna)

“It’s all right. The store carries many different types and sizes of cloth.” (Sherry)

You already know your way around the store.

She has truly become dependable.

As we were amateurs, there was nothing we could do to help with the pattern making, so we left it to Sherry, who’s an expert in this field.

Fina and Shuri, who have nothing to do, wanted to work on dismantling, so I asked them to dismantle some wolves. These days, most of the meat goes to the orphanage and stores. Only the pelts and magic stones acc.u.mulated in the bear box.

I am relaxing, leaning against Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, as I watch Sherry at work.

Peace is the best, after all.

I think even more so because of all that has happened recently.

Leaning against Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, Fina and Shuri waked me. I must have been half asleep. I looked outside and saw that it was already evening. The dismantling was also over.

I looked at Sherry and saw that she was working silently and seriously.

“Sherry, that’s enough for today.” (Yuna)

When I called out to her, she looked at us as if she had just come to her senses.

“Yuna-oneechan? But I’m not finished yet.” (Sherry)

Sherry picks up a pen and tries to continue her work.

“That’s not good.” (Yuna)

“Then I’ll continue at home.” (Sherry)

“That’s still not good.” (Yuna)

Sherry had a record of staying up all night making stuffed animals. She was the type of person who should not be allowed to bring her work home.

“But I’m almost done.” (Sherry)

I don’t know how much longer that would be. There’s no need to panic.

Still, Sherry looks like she wants to do it.

“I understand. But you are not allowed to bring your work back to the orphanage. You can stay at my house today.” (Yuna)

“Is it really okay if I stay the night?” (Sherry)

“I have my own room. But you will work until bedtime. If I say it’s already bedtime, you’ll go to bed. That’s as much as I can allow.” (Yuna)

If she’s almost done, she can stay up at night. If not, she can stay up until bedtime.

“Yuna-oneechan, I want to stay here too.” (Shuri)

I asked Sherry to stay and Shuri said she wanted to stay too.

“Sure, I don’t mind.” (Yuna)

I have an extra room and a place to sleep. If Shuri stays here, then Fina would be worried and may stay here as well.

I left Fina and the others at the bear house and went to Fina’s house and the orphanage to ask permission from Tirumina-san and the Director.

At times like this, I understand how valuable a phone call is.

As a souvenir, I brought the wolf meat that Fina and Shuri dismantled earlier.

Tirumina-san and the director graciously gave me their permission.

I then quickly return to the bear house and begin preparing dinner.

I quickly fried meat and vegetables and prepared the bread Morin-san baked for us. It was delicious if you put it between the bread.

After dinner, we took a bath and let Sherry work as promised until we went to bed.

We had nothing to do, so I gave the picture book to Fina and Shuri until it was time for bed.

“You’ve made it into a picture book.” (Fina)

“A~, that’s me!” (Shuri)

Fina looked embarra.s.sed when she saw the cover of the picture book. Shuri was delighted to see the picture book.

Come to think of it, Shuri wasn’t around when I made the picture book, so this would be the first time she’s seen herself.

Shuri took a picture book and sat on the couch, while Fina sat next to her and started reading the book.

“We’re all in the Adventurers’ Guild. Uncle Guildmaster? Not Dad?” (Shuri)

She’s talking to herself while reading a picture book.

“Only Oneechan walking alone with bear-san. No fair.” (Shuri)

“It’s not me. It’s the girl in the picture book.” (Fina)

Picture book girl = Fina. So, Shuri is not entirely wrong.

Shuri turned over the picture book.

“The carriage is under attack……” (Shuri)

That’s the scene of a carriage being attacked by monsters.

The girl is then called to the Adventurers’ Guild to meet the lord’s daughter.

“This girl. Noa-oneechan?” (Shuri)

“That would be the case, I think?” (Fina)

And then she finished reading it.

“I wanted to be friends with Noa-oneechan, too.” (Shuri)

She seemed a little disappointed.

“The girl’s sister can be her friend someday, too.” (Yuna)

“Really?” (Shuri)

“Shuri is also Noa’s friend, right? So can she.” (Yuna)

Shuri looked happy at my words.

It’s getting late now.

“Well then, time to go to bed.” (Yuna)

“I haven’t finished yet.” (Sherry)

Sherry put down her pen.

The promise is until bedtime.

“You can continue tomorrow morning. Rest is important, too.” (Yuna)

Even gamers need rest. The concentration would be down, and you wouldn’t last long. But I’ve said many times before, a little bit more.

I led the three of them upstairs to their room.

“This room.” (Yuna)

I showed the three of them around the j.a.panese-style room. Since I purchased tatami mats in the Land of Harmony, I turned one of the rooms into a j.a.panese-style room. Sometimes, I also lay out a futon in this room and sleep with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear. I took out the futons for the three of them and laid them out on the tatami.

“Are we going to sleep here?” (Sherry)

“If you don’t feel comfortable, there’s also a bed.” (Yuna)

There are other rooms available.

“No, I’m fine. My feet also feel good.” (Sherry)

Sherry let out such thoughts as she walked on the tatami mats.

“Fina, Shuri you’re okay, right?” (Yuna)

“Yes.” (Shuri)

“Yeah, we’ll be fine.” (Fina)

Shuri happily laid down on the futon.

“Don’t stay up late, get a good night’s sleep.” (Yuna)

“Yes.” (Sherry)

“Yes.” (Fina)

“Un~” (Shuri)

The three responded.

Are they going to be okay?

I return to my room and sleep with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear in cub form.
