-No One's P.O.V-

After you and Alphax give a punishment time for the Thieves from early in the morning. The two of you tied them up and went back to Millela in your sleepy condition...

It was now morning, Yuna and Gura explained the situation to Atola about the breaking in and moties of the two intruders who broke into the Inn. Atola was shocked at first but came to understand as she thanked them for being safe.

That is when they would hear a familiar voice...

(Y/N): Morning, ya' sons of bitches...~!

Atola, Yuna, and Gura turned to see you and Alphax along with the tied-up thieves.

Yuna: *Happy* (Y/N), you're back!

(Y/N): *Tired Nod* Mmhm, Alphax and I got the thieves already.

You tell them as the three girls look to see that you are carrying the two thieves under your arms while Alphax carries the other two thieves over her shoulder.

Alphax: *Tired* You should be grateful as well...*Puts the unconscious thieves down on the ground* Now please take care of these guys for us.

Atola: *Sweatdorps* I-I see...I'm glad you and Alphax took care of them.

You nodded in reply as you began to put the tied-up thieves on the ground. That is when Alphax would return back into her wolf form which surprised Atola until Alphax spoke up to you.

Alphax: (Y/N), I need you to withdraw me out of here so I can get my beauty sleep.

(Y/N): *Nods* Sure.

You snapped your fingers until Alphax's body disappeared into the light which surprised Atola.

Atola: Was that Alphax's wolf form? And...did you just make her disappear, (Y/N)?

(Y/N): Yup.

Atola: *Looks at Gura and Fina* How about you two? Do you two have that kind of creature like (Y/N)?

Gura: Yup~! Let's show her, Yuna.

Yuna nods until she summons Kumakyu and Kumayuru along with Gura summoning out Bloop as well.

Atola: *Shocked* B-Bears?! And a cute shark?! Are they not going to attack me?

Yuna: Relax. They're our summon beasts, so they're safe as long as you don't attack them.

Gura: She's not wrong. *Grins mischievously* Don't try anything funny on our summon beasts~

Atola: *Sweatdrops* I see...

That is when (Y/N0 the girls would hear one of the thieves groaning.

Thief 1: *Speaks weakly* Shit...! What the hell were that wolf boy and that wolf woman?

Atola then stomped her right foot on the ground which gained the attention of the other thieves.

Atola: Well, then. Let's hear your story.

-At the Merchant Guild-

Guild Merchant Master: *Shaking his cup of wine* Those pieces of trash are late...When are they going to bring that bear girl's item bag to me? *Drinks his cup of wine* But it looks like it's time to pack up. There isn't much left to take from this town. I'll skip town as soon as I get that girl's item bag.

That is when the Guild Merchant Master hears knocking on the door.

Male Guild Employee: Mr. Zarrad! Excuse me!

The Guild Merchant Master known as Zarrad spoke up in annoyance.

Zarrad: What is it? So noisy.

Male Guild Employee: Great news! The thieves blocking the road out of town have been defeated by an adventurer!

Zarrad: *Shocked* What?!

Male Guild Employee: We'll be able to restore our food supply now! The people of this town won't starve! The thieves are currently being questioned by the adventurer's guild.

Zarrad: Are you kidding me?!

The Male Guild employee was confused by the sudden outburst until he saw Zarrad hurriedly walking out of his office with a desperate look on his face.

-Somewhere-

Zarrad went off somewhere and he was seen unlocking a secret door by turning the wheel clockwise before opening it. Behind the room, there were many gold, jewelry, and treasure chests that had been kept hidden from the townsfolk.

Zarrad: *Hurriedly* I have to grab what I can and get out of here-

Zarrad was about to grab what he could when he heard a familiar voice behind him...

???: And where do you think you're going?

Zarrad turns around and sees Yuna, Gura, Atola, and the guards of the Adventurer's Guild.

Zarrad: Atola?!

Atola: You have items that were originally stolen by the thieves...

Yuna: (Oh boy, Atola's getting all serious now...)

(Y/N): *Lets out a gentle yawn* (Damn, I can't even think when I'm tired.)

Atola: Why are such items in your possession?

Zarrad: *Nervous* I-I don't know! Thieves, you say? I got all of these items through legal means!

Atola: *Smiles wryly* Legal means, huh...

Atola lowers down her paper and reveals the tied-up thieves which surprised Zarrad.

Zarrad: These guys are...

The tied-up thieves looked away in shame after what was done.

Atola: They confessed everything. You gave these adventurers money and had them act as a band of thieves. You used the appearance of the Kraken to your advantage and blocked the land route by creating a band of thieves using bought adventurers. You cut off our food supply and sold food to people at outrageous prices. You also pocketed the valuables stolen from the townspeople. Am I right?

Gura: *Smirks* You can't run now, old geezer!

Yuna: *Determined* It is time for you to pay for your crimes!

Zarrad: *Grits his teeth* No! I can't lose everything now! Move it, you animals!

Zarrad tries rushing past Gura, Yuna, and you, but ultimately ends up with a strong slap from Atola as her right palm hits Zarrad's left cheek which sends him back to the ground.

Gura & Yuna: (Oof, that's gotta hurt.)

Atola: *Turns to the guards* Take this man away.

Male Adventurer's Guild Guard: *Nods* Yes.

The Male Adventurer's Guild Guard walks up to Zarrad and cuffs him up.

Atola: (Y/N).

(Y/N): What's up?

Atola: *Smiles* I must thank you for dealing with the thieves. We were able to collect decisive evidence. We knew that Zarrad was a criminal, but we didn't have proof.

(Y/N): *Nods with a left thumb up* No problem.

Gura: Hahaha~! Alphax, (Y/N), and I heard that from yesterday so it's not that surprising when you said "Evidence".

Yuna: But you could've at least told us from the start.

Atola: *Apologetic* I'm sorry. It seemed like adventurers from our guild were also working with him, so we couldn't tell others about it until we were sure. But, the Mileela land route has been opened thanks to (Y/N).

(Y/N): Happy to help.

Atola: *Nods* Yes. However, we still can't use the sea route because of the Kraken, but this should take care of the food shortage.

Gura: *Nods* Yeah, we should still think about it first...

-At the Restaurant-

Anz's Father: I heard about it. Those thieves and that bastard Zarrad were caught thanks to (Y/N)!

Anz: *Nods* Mm. You're amazing, (Y/N)!

(Y/N): *Tiredly nods* Yes, yes. Thank you very much.

Anz: The people from the adventurers said it was all thanks to you, Mister (Y/N).

Anz's Father: We'll feed you something good today to thank you (Y/N).

Yuna: What about us?

Anz's Father: *Reassuringly smiles* Don't worry. You two may not have helped, but I'll cook something for you two.

(Y/N): *Smiles* That's good.

Anz's Father: *Nods* Mm. Anz, are you done with the preparations?

Anz: *Nods* Yes. I'll be done soon, so please wait!

Yuna: *Curious* What is she making?

Anz's Father: You'll see once it's ready.

Gura: *Excited* I'm sure it'll be pretty good~!

(Y/N): Heh, probably...

-Mini Time Skip-

A couple of minutes passed until Anz came back with the food that she wanted you three to eat which is...

Anz: This is a first! Grilled fish!

Yuna: Whoa!

Gura: This is...!

Anz: And this is a must when you're eating grilled fish!

Anz then brings a small bowl of something white which is....

(Y/N): *Eyes widen in shock* Is that rice?!

Anz: And to top it all off...!

Yuna: *Delighted* Miso soup, and even soy sauce!

Gura & (Y/N): Hell yeah!

Anz's Father: Oh?

(Y/N): Hm?

Anz's Father: You three know what rice and miso soup are?

You, Gura, and Yuna glanced at each other nervously before you replied back with...

(Y/N): Y-Yeah...

Anz's Father: Is that so? Rice, fish, and miso soup. Ear the fish with a little soy sauce. This is the ultimate combination!

Gura: Now that's even better!

(Y/N): (I can't believe. I felt homesick and didn't even eat rice! And now...it's finally here!)

The three of you had unknowingly picked up the chopsticks that were laid down on the table.

Yuna: Even chopsticks!?

You, Yuna, and Gura begin to eat the rice and the miso soup altogether. That is when something awakened within you three while Anz and her father were waiting for a reaction...

Anz: *Anxious* How is it?

Anz and her Father noticed that Yuna was crying, Gura was clenching her right fist, and you had a smirk that raised their eyebrows until...

Anz: Whoa, they have various reactions!

Anz: Does Gura and Yuna have different tastes? (Y/N) seemed to be liking it...

(Y/N): You got that right, old timer...

That is when Gura and Yuna begin to eat the rice out of sheer happiness.

Yuna: *Happy tears* Delicious! So delicious it's making me cry~! This! This! This is it! The Japanese food we've been searching for! The taste of our hometown!

Gura: *Happy* That's right~! Thanks a lot~!

(Y/N): *Happy smile but with a composed expression* Rice, Miso Soup, and the Grilled Fish tastes the same as I remember, but where are those who share those loving taste of our hometown in their memories...?

Anz's Father: Hometown? Are you three from the country of Wa?

Yuna: Country of Wa?

(Y/N): What's that?

Anz: Am I wrong?

You, Gura, and Yuna glanced at each other in confusion about Anz's father mentioning a country named "Wa".

Gura: Well...it's kinda hard to explain, but this "Wa" country has similar tastes of food to our hometown.

Yuna: *Smiles* But it also tasted so nostalgic that I couldn't help crying...

(Y/N): We're all feeling homesick, Yuna. We've gone for quite a while since we started our adventure.

Anz's Father: Hmm. I'd love to cook you more recipes from Wa since you three like the food, but we're out of ingredients.

Anz: *Frowning* Before the Kraken, we got ingredients from the country of Wa once a month...

You, Gura, and Yuna caught your attention upon hearing Anz's words, and began to think to yourselves about how to defeat the Kraken in order to get the feeling of the Japanese food from the country of Wa.

-Time Skip-

After trying to come up with a plan that complicates things a little bit, Gawr Gura still insists that she needs help from you and Yuna to defeat the Kraken together without going by herself and Bloop alone. However, you were tired after you and Alphax had fought the bandits last night, so you dipped out and went back to the Inn to get some sleep, leaving Gura and Yuna to their own planning.

After multiple attempts to think of a plan on how to get rid of the Kraken, it was no use until sunset. That is when Yuula came over to offer a dinner since she and her family didn't properly thank you three. Both Gura and Yuna accepted, but the girls had to get you over to dinner. Speaking of the devil, you managed to wake up until you found Gura and Yuna along with Yuula. Both Gura and Yuna explained about their attempted useless plans which disappointed you, but it can't be helped until Yuula offers you to eat dinner with them to which you agreed.

-At Yuula's Home-

Damon: Dinner is a bit extravagant to celebrate the opening of the land route and to thank you.

Yuula then opens the lid of the pot, revealing it to be a seafood hot pot.

Damon: A seafood hot pot filled with simmering fish and vegetables from Mileela!

Yuna/Gura/(Y/N): Whoa...!

Damon: Now then...

Yuula/Son/Daughter: Thank you for the meal!

Everyone begins to pick up their plates and begin to eat dinner.

Yuna: *Contemplating* Hot pot...Simmer...

Son: Dad! Mom! Can we eat this?! *Points at the piece of seafood*

Daughter: Hey! We're thanking Miss Yuna, Miss Gura, and Mister (Y/N) so they should be the first to start eating.

(Y/N): *Reassuring* Ah, that won't be needed, kiddo. If anyone's hungry, feel free to chow down. *Looks at Yuna and Gura* Isn't that right, you two?

Yuna and Gura smiled and nodded in approval.

Son: Thanks, you three!

The son of Yuula and Damon picks up the piece of seafood while the daughter looks at her younger brother with a disappointed look.

Yuula: Hey, you three.

(Y/N)/Gura/Yuna: Hm?

Yuula: Since the thieves are gone, we'll be able to get more food than before.

Yuula glances at her children and they all have delighted looks on their faces before turning back to you three.

Yuula: Our children will no longer starve. Thank you very much.

Damon: Even being able to use the land route makes a huge difference. This is all thanks to you three!

Gura: Ahaha~! *Humbling* You should be thanking (Y/N), he's the one who found out the thieves. Yuna and I didn't do anything to help.

Yuula: But still, you three were able to help the people in Mileela. We were all starving, but if you three weren't around, we wouldn't know what to do.

(Y/N): *Nods* It is what it is.

Yuula: Okay. Here you three ago.

Yuula then places the three small bowls of seafood soup in front of you three.

Gura & (Y/N): Thank you for the food~!

Both you and Gura began to eat the seafood that was given by Yuula until the two of you had delightful expressions.

Gura: Wow, tastes really good~!

(Y/N): *Nodding* Mm.

Yuula: *Happy* I'm glad you like it.

Gura then notices Yuna is picking up the piece of squid using her chopsticks but stops herself.

Gura: Yuna, something the matter?

Yuna: Ah, n-no. It's nothing.

Yuna began to eat the squid and she also had a delighted expression on her face until she began thinking about how she wanted to add rice so she could finish up the leftovers of the seafood.

Yuula: Surrounding and eating a hot pot like this is so nice.

Yuna: *Contemplating* Surrounding...

Everyone looked towards Yuna who was in deep thought.

(Y/N): What is it?

Yuna: That's it!

Yuna said out loud as if she had an idea.

-The Next Day-

Yuna begins to tell you and Gura the plan on how to defeat the Kraken. First, Gawr Gura and Bloop will lure the Kraken onto the cliff so Yuna herself can use her earth elemental skills to block the exit. Once that is done, Gura will manipulate the water to get on top of the cliff to rejoin you and Yuna so the three of you can defeat the Kraken.

You and Yuna were waiting for Gura and Bloop to lead the Kraken onto your location.

-With Gura and Bloop-

Back to Gawr Gura and Bloop, both of them were swimming towards the Kraken with determined looks on their faces. Gura was holding her trident while Bloop was in his shark form.

Gura: Alright, let's lure this thing, Bloop!

Bloop: *Grins* Mm!

The Kraken pulls itself back and it opens its tentacles wide open as it wants to crush Gura and Bloop. However, Gura and Bloop dodged separately to avoid the attack. Bloop then bites down on one of the tentacles until he instinctively pulls away due to the Kraken trying to entangle him.

Gura goes around and uses her trident to stab Kraken's head.

Gura: Eat this!

Gura used her lightning powers from the Trident to shock the Kraken from the inside.

The Kraken recovers for a short period of time after being electrocuted and goes to grab Gura using its tentacles, but she pulls herself away in time before she gets grabbed.

Both Gura and Bloop took a distance to regroup themselves. The Kraken opened its tentacles wide open once again, but two tentacles lunged toward Gura and Bloop. However, the two dodged the attack again until Gura spoke up to Bloop...

Gura: Bloop, we need to use its tentacles and wrap around it to tie itself up!

Bloop makes a grunting sound as if to obey Gura's command. Bloop goes to grab one of the Kraken's tentacles and spins around it. The Kraken uses its other free tentacles to grab Bloop, but he pulls himself out of the way until Gura grabs the tentacle that almost grabs Bloop as she spins the other way around to tie around the Kraken, leaving the giant sea creature vulnerable.

Gura: Quick, grab one of those tentacles and head to the cliff!

Gura grabbed one random tentacle while Bloop chomped down onto a random tentacle as well until the two began to drag the Kraken at a fast pace to the cliff where you and Yuna were waiting.

-Back to the Surface-

You and Yuna were waiting for Gura to show up until something emerged out of the water. Both you and Yuna see Gura and Bloop dragging the Kraken by its tentacles onto your location.

Gura: Yuna, do it!!

Gura yelled until Yuna used her earth magic skills.

Yuna: Bear of Earth Magic!

Yuna begins to create giant bear statues underneath the sea floors to block the exit as she tries her best to move them while Gura and Bloop are busy distracting the Kraken.

(Y/N): Come on, Yuna! You can do it!

Yuna: I-I know! Just a little bit longer!

Yuna uses a bit more of her power until she manages to block the Kraken.

Gura: Nice, you got it! Bloop, let's retreat!

Bloop then transformed back into his cute shark form until Gura used her power to manipulate the water to spring out of the water until she landed perfectly to rejoin you and Yuna.

(Y/N): Nice landing there.

Gura: *Grins and scratches the back of her head.* Hehehe~!

That is when you and Gura can hear Yuna panting due to using her mana so much.

Gura: *Concerned* Yuna, are you okay?!

Yuna: Haa...I'm fine...Haa...I used more of my mana, I still have plenty to defeat this thing.

(Y/N): *Understanding* Okay, let's go, you guys!

Gura and Yuna nodded as the three of you began to fire your magic projectiles at the Kraken. You were using "Stardust Rain" to fire energy blasts, Yuna was using her "Bear Fire" skill to fire her bear-shaped fireballs, and Gura was using her "Water Shot Barrage" skill to fire out powerful water balls from the seven mini water portals from thin air.

That is when the Kraken lets out a roar until it uses its tentacles to grab onto you three, but that is when you yelled out...

(Y/N): FUCK YOU!

You used your "Spiritual Arms" skill to unleash your ghostly apparition of your arms and grabbed onto the tentacles that were reaching out towards you three.

Gura: Whoa!

Yuna: Thanks! Bear Cutter!

Yuna then cuts down the tentacles of the Kraken that you were busy holding onto as she completely slices them off into pieces.

However, it wasn't over, the Kraken's tentacles began to regenerate themselves which surprised you three.

Yuna: Goodness. It even has the power to regenerate...

Gura: *Annoyed* Mmhm. I hate that some bosses can heal themselves.

(Y/N): I can agree with that statement. But right now, we gotta keep fighting!

The three of you continued to fire your powerful projectile attacks onto the Kraken for just a bit more. However, the townsfolk of Mileela were also witnessing the whole thing from afar.

Yuula: What's happening?

Atola: What's going on here?!

Anz's Father used a telescope and saw you three in the distance.

Anz's Father: That's...

...

Yuna: *Determined* Rice! Miso! Soy sauce! Rice! Miso! Soy sauce! Rice! Miso! Soy sauce! Rice!

(Y/N): *Slightly Determined* Die, die, die, die!

Gura: *Grits her teeth* Stay down!!

...

Anz's Father: It's the Bear Lady, Wolf Boy, and the Shark Girl?!

Atola: *Shocked* Yuna, (Y/N), and Gura?!

-Time Skip until Sunset-

Time passes until we see Gura, Yuna, and you were trying your best to defeat the Kraken, but it was really tough after using everything that you all got.

Yuna then tries to fire out her "Bear Fire" skill more, but it only lets out a steam of heat from her black bear glove.

Yuna: *Exhausted* I'm at my limit.

Just as she was about to take a step forward to attack again, you placed a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

(Y/N): Yuna, don't worry. We've got this. We're in this together, right?

Yuna smiled back at you, feeling the warmth of his encouragement. She nodded, feeling a surge of determination welling up within her once more. You then placed your hand on your wolf costume's chest and transferred a portion of his mana to Yuna, instantly revitalizing her.

Yuna: Thank you, (Y/N). I'm ready to go again!

As the team turned their attention to Gawr Gura, she smiled playfully, her blue shark hoodie shimmering with aquatic energy.

Gawr Gura: Hey, don't think I'm gonna let you have all the fun. Let's do this, guys!

With that, Gura transferred some of her mana as well, adding to the rejuvenation of Yuna. Now, the trio stood together at 50% power, a force to be reckoned with.

(A/N: Play this for the battle:

https://youtu.be/HpWINRsyV9g

Yuna: Alright, everyone, it's time to show this Kraken what we can do!

(Y/N): Yuna's right. Oh, and one more thing, I have another skill that I haven't used once.

Gura and Yuna looked at you in confusion until Yuna said...

Yuna: What is it?

(Y/N): It's called "Wolf's Howling Gale" This kind of skill that I have would summon strong gusts of wind that surround the area. The winds carry a chilling cold that can freeze anything they come in contact with.

Yuna: *Slightly Annoyed* You could've told us that earlier...

(Y/N): *Awkwrdly scratches the back of his head* Hehe, sorry~! *Serious face* But as much as we'd like to talk, let's combine our skills for a powerful long-range attack!

Gura: Leave it to me. My shark hoodie's got just the thing!

You extended your hands, and the swirling wind began to gather around you, amplifying your power as the wolf costume absorbed the energy. Meanwhile, Gura's shark hoodie glowed a brilliant blue, summoning a torrent of water from the nearby ocean, forming a massive watery sphere.

Gura: Water's ready!

You grinned and motioned towards Yuna, inviting her to join in. Yuna understood and raised her arms, conjuring a floating bear-shaped fireball above her, which swirled with intense flames.

Yuna: Fire's set!

As the three friends gathered their powers, their auras intertwined, creating a magnificent spectacle of fire and water, wind and sea. The ground beneath them trembled with the sheer force of their combined might.

(Y/N): Now, Yuna, infuse the fire with your bear mana!

Yuna nodded, channeling her mana into the fireball. The flames intensified and changed, taking on a swirling pattern reminiscent of a burning inferno.

Gura: And I'll add the water's power to the mix!

Gura pushed her watery sphere towards the fiery vortex created by Yuna. As the two elements collided, they merged into a blazing whirlpool, a swirling tempest of steam and fire.

Yuna: Now, (Y/N), control the winds and aim it at the Kraken!

You focused on your energy, guiding the fiery water spout towards the Kraken. The massive creature roared, sensing the impending danger.

Gura: Fire in the hole!

With a triumphant shout, the three friends unleashed their combined skill, launching the immense long-range attack towards the Kraken. The blazing whirlpool hurtled through the air, guided by (Y/N)'s precise control, and struck the Kraken with unparalleled force.

The Kraken let out a deafening scream as the attack engulfed it entirely. The combined power of fire, water, and wind tore through the Kraken's defenses, leaving it battered and weakened.

You, Yuna, and Gura stood together, catching your breath altogether as the three of you watched the aftermath of your incredible attack together until all of you saw the Kraken was no longer moving anymore, meaning that you three had finally killed it.

(A/N: Stop the battle music here. Also, I have a confession during the battle, I used ChatGPT just for the battle of the Kraken, shame on me.)

Yuna takes a deep exhale before saying...

Yuna: The squid hot pot plan was a success...

Yuna begins to faint but you catch her in your arms.

Gura: She's exhausted...

(Y/N): *Nods* I know.

That is when the Bear Statues that Yuna had created begin to fall due to Yuna's weak mana.

Everyone from the docks of Mileela was shocked that you three just defeated the Kraken with all of your might until they all began cheering at your victory.

...

Atola: Whoa...they really did it!

Anz's Father: Those three...We've got to feed them more delicious food, *Smirks* Heh.

...

Back to you, Gura, and Yuan. You were carrying Yuna on your back like a piggyback ride while Gura was walking beside you.

Yuna: *Mutters* Rice...Miso...Soy sauce...

(Y/N): *Sighs* I can't believe it we defeated that damn Kraken...

Gura: Yup. Can't wait to get some grub~!

(Y/N): *Smirks*Hehe, same here. We'll bring the goods once Yuna wakes up.

Gura: *Raises her right fist in excitement* Heck yeah!!

...

...

(A/N: That's that~! Stay tuned for more~!)
