The Bear Fights the Spider (Part 2)

Published: 14 October 2023

 

Deborane's Perspective

Lanz and I, separated from the bear, defeated the spider.

 

"Deborane-san, I'm coming from the right." (Lanz)

 

I killed the spider in front of me and immediately turned to the right.

 

"Hey, die!" (Deborane)

 

When Rulina and Gil were there, it would be Rulina's role to check the surroundings. However, now that the two of them are gone, Lanz would inform me of the monster's location while fighting. You could clearly see not only the enemy in front of you, but also your surroundings.

 

"Deborane-san, there's one from behind. I'll go." (Lanz)

 

Rands precisely slashed the spider's legs and finished it off when it could no longer move.

In the past, all I could see was the monster in front of me, but now I'd grown.

I left it to Lanz to check the surroundings and defeat the monsters that I see.

 

"This time I'll come from the left." (Lanz)

 

When I glanced to the left after hearing Lanz's words, I saw a spider trying to spit out thread.

I grabbed the knife on my waist and threw it towards the spider's mouth. A knife was stuck in its mouth and it stopped moving. When I deal with the spider in front of me, a knife was stuck in its mouth and its movement was slowed down, and I finished it off.

I retrieved the knife from the spider's mouth and returned it to my waist.

 

After that, Lanz and I moved inside the village and defeated the spiders.

 

"Damn, they keep showing up one after another. Rands, are you okay!" (Deborane)

"It's okay. But the sword is tied to a thread." (Lanz)

 

I agreed with that. I tried to avoid the spewing spider threads as much as possible, but as I used my sword to cut or block the unavoidable threads, the thread ended up getting wrapped around my sword.

 

"Once we defeat the monsters here, we'll exchange weapons." (Deborane)

"Okay" (Lanz)

 

After defeating the spider in front of us, Lanz and I exchanged weapons and took a breath.

My arms were heavy.

My arms were starting to get tired from swinging the sword so many times.

 

"Lanz, can you still go? If you get tired, go back to the village chief's house." (Deborane)

"I can still fight." (Lanz)

"I see." (Deborane)

 

They appeared one after another, but fewer than I expected. That bear must have killed it. It's frustrating, but that bear was strong.

When I heard about the Goblin King being subdued, I couldn't believe it. However, when Rulina saw the subjugation, Gil and Lanz checked the Goblin King's corpse, which had been brought to the adventurer's guild.

According to Rulina, there were also 100 goblins. Even if four people could defeat just the goblins, it would be impossible to fight the Goblin King at the same time. However, that bear single-handedly defeated 100 goblins and defeated the Goblin King.

If we had met at that time, I didn't know what would have happened.

Then, when I heard the story about the bear defeating the Black Viper, I thought it was a joke.

However, when I learned that Black Viper was being dismantled outside of town, I went to see it. Black Viper had really been defeated.

I touched it, but the skin was hard.

How could she defeat such a big monster?

According to the guild staff member who was dismantling it, the fire magic that entered through the mouth penetrated deep into the body and burned it.

Rulina said that with a monster of that size, she shouldn't be able to have magic reached its body. At her best, she said, only up to its mouth. She said she couldn't do it unless she has considerable magical powers.

Not only did she have the power to beat me to death, but she also had magical talent.

Even though she's wearing such a playful outfit, she's still an annoying woman.

It made me sad to think that I had to rely on such a woman's help.

 

"Hey!" (Deborane)

 

I hit the spider out of frustration.

However, just think that the bear was killing the spider for me.

I would ask her to keep her promise to hand over the materials to me.

 

Speaking of that bear, I sometimes heard screams in the distance, but I decide not to pay attention to it. I didn't think that bear would be defeated easily. The fact that you heard the voice over and over again means it's okay.

Above all, there's a black and white bear nearby, so it'd be okay.

Well, this time I could understand the bear's feelings. Spiders were disgusting for me too. Lanz was also defeating the spider while making a disgusted face.

However, I was an adventurer. If it attacked you, just killed it.

 


Yuna's Perpective

"Hey, die!" (Deborane)

 

Voices from Deborane and his friend could be heard from a distance.

Deborane seemed to be doing her best as well.

I also wanted to go home early, so I'd do my best.

I used my detection skills to focus on areas where spiders were gathering together with Kumayuru and Kumakyu.

The more I defeat, the easier it would be for Deborane and the others.

Not especially for Deborane.

I just didn't want to see Deborane being eaten by a spider.

First of all, I didn't hate Deborane.

The only time I was harassed was when we first met, and I hadn't been harassed since.

Lanz thanked me when I subjugated the goblins.

However, Deborane had a big attitude and was arrogant which made me annoyed.

Besides, they treated me like a bear.

 

Even so, there were a lot of them.

There were so many people out there who didn't have the strength to fight.

Even in the original world, just encountering a boar was enough to cause an uproar. Ordinary people did not have the means to defeat boars. That's how dangerous it was. Even I couldn't defeat a single wolf without bear equipment.

 

I shot ice arrows and defeated spiders one after another. It would no longer attack halfway.

It looked like they're starting to hide.

I used my detection skills to accurately defeat spiders hiding on top of houses, behind houses, on trees, behind bushes, and hiding.

I felt sorry, but considering the safety of the village, I couldn't let even one of them escaped. It couldn't be helped since a monster had entered an area where there were people.

 

And then, the spiders in the village were exterminated.

 

"This is the last time." (Yuna)

 

I defeated the spider hiding behind the house.

 

"Kumayuru, Kumakyu, thank you." (Yuna)

""Kyuu~n""

 

Thanks to Kumayuru and Kumakyu protecting my back, I was able to fight with peace of mind.

If I were alone, I didn't know how many times I would have screamed. I might have suffered considerable mental damage.

Therefore, I had no words to express my gratitude to Kumayuru and Kumakyu for protecting me.

 

"Are you done?" (Deborane)

 

While I was patting Kumayuru and Kumakyu's heads, Deborane and Lanz came over.

The moment I saw Deborane and the others, I wanted to close my eyes. Both of them were covered in spider blood and thread.

If you're an adventurer, this might be okay, but it's not possible for me.

Just thinking about it gave me chills.

But maybe it's the true nature of adventurers to not care even if they got demon blood or spider threads on their bodies.

 

"Looks like you're finished too." (Yuna)

 

I talked to Deborane and the others without looking directly at them.

 

"Ah, I just hope there’s no anything left hiding." (Deborane)

"In that case, it's okay. We've defeated the hidden spiders, so they're no longer in the village." (Yuna)

 

Confirmed with my detection skill.

 

"Do you know that?" (Deborane)

"These kids will teach me." (Yuna)

 

I reached out to the bears on either side and stroke their bodies.

 

"That's a convenient bear." (Deborane)

"Well then, Deborahne-san, it's over now, isn't it?" (Yuna)

"Ah, for now. The other problem is the forest where the spider appeared. There may still be some left." (Deborane)

 

Indeed, they say that if you see one cockroach, there are 100.

Even while we were fighting, they were coming from the forest. There's a good chance they're still in the forest.

At the very least, it was necessary to check the nearby forest.

Deborahe looked at me.

He probably wouldn't ask me to go check it out, right?

 

"Hey, Bear. We'll stay in the village. You should go report to the adventurer's guild." (Deborane)

 

Unexpected words came out of Deborane's mouth.

 

"Is it okay?" (Yuna)

 

If it were me, I have detection skills, so it would be possible to find them and subdue them.

Deborane should also know that Kumayuru and Kumakyu can be done, but he didn't give orders.

No, "Go report to the Adventurer's Guild" might also be an order.

 

"That bear will be able to return to the capital quickly." (Deborane)

 

Deborane looked at Kumayuru and Kumakyu.

 

"That's right, but" (Yuna)

"Then, go quickly. I'll take care of the spiders as promised." (Deborane)

"Ok" (Yuna)

 

That's how you said it, but this time I would follow Deborane's words.

After all, I didn't want to fight any more spiders, and if another adventurer wanted to defeat the rest, I'd leave it to them. So, I decided to accept Deborane's idea.
