A planet filled with oceans of sand.
A world of beastmen.
A world of humans enslaved by the beastmen.
There are 2 types of companions.
Companions that come together in friendship, and...
Companions who desperately want to get into an inn but end up wasting their energy passionately arguing instead...
That's enough whining! Just how many times do I have to repeat myself?
Yes.
This is a human town, so there's no helping it, right?
No matter how many times you say it, I don't want to-kuma!
Now look here, it's not like I want to either, having a teddy bear at my age.
I CAN'T just pretend to be a teddy bear-kuma!
Then, are you telling me you can pretend to be a human baby?
Oh you are getting mad.
I don't have the time to be angry with you-kuma.
Ah... it's so hot.
Do you wish to stay the night?
Huh?
If it's possible we would love to, but...
We don't mind, we can't be picky about customers after all.
Really? Thank goodness.
But excuse me, do you have money on you?
Yes.
Thank goodness. You're real travelers.
Oh, what happened?
Actually, the WDC recently has been running amok in the region.
EH?!
That is...?
Not having money, there seem to have been several incidents of them freeloading and robbing people.
So that's what's been happening....
There are two types of companions.
Um, dear customers, about the bill...?
This world was created by God. Then why has God created humans and beastmen?
Huh?
That's not because he was dumped by a goddess and was depressed.
Nor was it a prank of the Devil that caused God to lose his concentration and screw up.
It is a message from "Above".
Yes! The message of love that transcends race that we must foster.
Love! To share this complicated but simple feeling with everyone.
To transcend the boundary of race, including the relationship between Man and Woman...
By the way, I've been winking at you with all my might since just now... Didn't you notice?
Eh?
As expected, skinship is the only way to go!
Can't you be a bit gentler in expressing your jealousy?
What jealousy? Let's go.
Please don't quarrel among yourselves, you two.
Excuse me, the bill...?
Hear and tremble! I am Kyrie from the WDC.
Similarly, I am Morute.
Ummm, I am Toppi.
That's a good reaction! If you let the police know, I will make you guys experience a greater reaction. Thank you for understanding. Ciao.
S-Sorry.
Sorry, are you Okay?
Eh?
Let's go.
Yeah.
Just how much further is our utopia?
KUMA!
After we rest a bit we should check about town regarding those fakes -kuma.
Why don't we leave those fakes alone? Having those imposers around will help divert the WSC's attention.
No! We cannot ignore this matter -kuma!
As a hero, I cannot stand still for this slur on my reputation -kuma!
What kind of a reputation do you have now?
Toppi stands out pretty well in this town....
Even though it's a bit forced, at least we managed to get another bed for Toppi.
Today let's rest early...
Toppi, you previously could cover for your friend's crimes, but now you can't forgive eat-and-runs?
I've had it -kuma! I will search alone -kuma!
Wait, Toppi... Toppi!?
Hey...
Ah, sorry...
Huh?
What is it?
Nothing.
I will be beaten up... No, she may even kill me.
Huh?
You want information on those guys, like how much they ate and what they eat?
You WSC guys gotta get your act together, these kinds of things will...
Watch your mouth! As a human, do you think you can barter with us beastmen?
Ah, no...
Lia, how many times do I have to tell you not to rely on force?
I am tired of your sophistry. Up until now, none of your calculations have worked out!
My calculations are perfect. It's just that Fortune has not smiled upon us yet.
Well, that's fine anyway. We can fill our stomachs at the same time.
Hey, bring out the full set of dishes those freeloaders ate.
Anything else?
I heard they have appeared at the antiques store in the neighboring village.
Neighboring village?
Yeah, the beastmen village.
Climb that mountain and you're there.
See? You can see it from here.
We have to walk THAT far?
Excuse me.
There are really lots of different beastmen.
I've been in the police for many years, but this is the first time I've seen a beastman like you.
Thank you for your many years of tireless service-kuma.
Anyway do you have any news about the WDC?
Well mostly there's the repeated robberies and freeloading incidents about these parts.
During the robberies some people have been heavily injured.
Those unforgivable bastards-kuma.
Most of the restaurants and antique stores in the area have been hit.
In fact just awhile ago a nearby restaurant was hit.
Recently?
Yes. In fact, I've called an eyewitness over.
This time it's a small Bear-san!
Kuma!
Bear-san, Bear-san!
Don't call me a bear-kuma.
It talks. The bear talks, mister!
Maria, stop that! Stop bothering Bear-san.
So Maria, can you tell me what happened at the restaurant?
Yup! You know, there was this great bear that is much much bigger than this one, and he apologized to me!
Oh! He apologized to you?
Yup! Even though that bear was really big and scary, but he said "sorry" to me!
I'm not a bear-kuma.
That's quite a good painting.
Yes, just keep looking at that picture...
What is it?
Nothing, it's hot...
That is...
Hey, Morute, over there! Want to go together?
Hmm? Where?
Oh over there, that sign surely is a bathhouse.
L-Let's quickly go refresh ourselves together!
Together?
Ah, no, I mean....
So...
It was truly a horrific crime.
The store owner resisted and was seriously wounded.
Look.
Really, it's because you WSC folks are hopeless that these kind of crimes happen.
Watch your mou-
Are you okay, you two?
If you give us correct information, we will catch them immediately. Anyways... where is the WDC?
Ah, the latest rumor is that they have appeared in the neighboring village.
Neighboring village?!
Yeah, from here you have to cross two mountain passes.
You can't see it from here.
So you have it, they have been robbing and freeloading at cheap restaurants, no matter how you look at it, their actions follow no pattern at all-kuma.
In addition, according to the little girl's eyewitness testimony...
Are you listening-kuma?
Ah, eh? It's alright, right?
Really, can't you be a bit more serious-kuma? Do you know how I felt as I collected this information-kuma?
I'm going to grab some water.
Now's not the time for that, Toppi.
Kuma?
Look.
Excuse me.
What is it-kuma?
Over there, Toppi!
Please wait a moment.
Look, THAT!
... KUMA?!
How did this terrifying thing happen?
It's all your fault, Toppi.
How is it my fault?!
At that time, Toppi you..
What's wrong?
KUMA!!
What is it...
Welcome.
Wonderful inn you have. Can you prepare a room for us?
Ah, excuse me sirs, but do you have money?
Utopia is still far off eh...
Hear and tremble! We are the WDC!
Excuse me, but I have some questions to ask you.
The WDC... has threatened us normal citizens, save us!
Come! The WDC are the ones who are disturbing the peace!
What did you say?!
Yo.
You are the bear from just now....
And I was thinking how strange it was, how such a ridiculous species of beastman could exist...
Ridiculous species?
Come! Show us your true identity! I won't let you guys off so easily, tricking a police officer like me.
Wait a moment-kuma! Didn't the little girl say she saw a different bear beastman-kuma?
You know, there was this great bear that is much much bigger than this one, and he apologized to me!
Hmmm, that's true...
Remember-kuma...
Great, big bear....
Wait a damn minute!
An ally of justice should not listen to the words of evil!
Look at this wound...
It was done by this despicable ridiculous teddy bear-like beastman!
All of a sudden, with no forewarning at all!
Despicable?!
Yeah, you hit me real good...
Don't frame people-kuma!
Both parties stay away from me and line up over there. I will investigate both groups!
According to the information gathered by me, the WDC is a three man group made up of one human male and female with a beastman.
First is this destitute-looking man!
Destitute-looking? Well I was abandoned when born...
Next, the beautiful woman.
Lastly, a ferocious beastman.
kuma~
Ferocious looking...
It's not me!
According to the eyewitness, after freeloading at the restaurant, the three fought among themselves.
We hate fighting, because nothing good comes from conflict!
Kuma!
What is it?
I don't have a choice-kuma.
Wait-
Oh dear, let's see...
During the fight, the woman exhibited extraordinary strength and blew the man away.
In other words, the woman's personality is pretty violent.
Incomparable gentleness, this is a far cry from the "violent" description, right?
Yeah, I know.
Ah wait, at this rate...
You knew..
You ALREADY knew, right?
Please have mercy...
Like hell I will!
Looks like it's decided.
Evil is vanquished, now excuse us...
Wait a moment-kuma!
Sorry. But we cannot afford to be caught.
Not till we can find our utopia where humans and beastmen can coexist in peace.
Let's go.
I'm really sorry.
Freeze!
What's the matter now?
What is going on? If I am not wrong these are all the stolen goods from the neighboring antique stores.
This too. That too!
All the things here are-
Beastman?!
Male and female human with a beastman...
You guys were the criminals!
Don't get us wrong, our aim was just the valuable stuff. We had nothing to do with the freeloading incidents.
That should be the work of the guys trying to sneak away.
No matter what, now that you know our secret, we can't let you leave alive.
Morute!
Hey you, where do you think you are groping?
Scary...
Let go of me.
Dear!
Leading us on such a wild goose chase, what do you think you are doing?
Who the heck are you?
What do we do?
What are you waiting for? Let's run for it.
My legs are like rubber, I can't seem to get them to listen to me.
Sheesh.
Hey you guys over there, this way-kuma.
Hurry up-kuma!
Can't you be a bit more gentle in transporting me?
Fine, just hurry!
It appears we somehow managed to escape.
I'm really sorry!
Sorry.
Redeem your freeloading sins, take on the responsibility of that inn-kuma!
That is the condition for me to let you guys go scot free-kuma.
Umm I can understand the freeloading part, but taking on the inn..?
Create a space where humans and beastmen can live side by side in peace-kuma
Utopia is something you create with your hands, not found-kuma.
Thank you very much!
Not found, but created, huh.
To think that I will learn something from another person's words.
Well, we're off then.
Sorry for all the trouble we have caused.
I have one bit of advice for you guys.
Listen up, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."
By the time you wish to apologize, it's already too late.
I wish you luck.
Farewell!
That is..?

That is..?
It's a sand-marine -kuma!
KUMA?!
Capturing us and Agan, the sand-marine dives into the deep bowels of the desert sea.
What will be the fate of us jailbirds...
