Bear-san Fights the King Spider Part 2

I leave the Bear to deal with the King Spider while Lanz, and I run inside the Village Chief’s house.

“Deborane-san, Lanz-san, you are safe.” (Village Chief)

The Village Chief greeted us.

I felt sorry for the Village Chief but had to sit on a chair without his consent.

I was tired, especially after encountering that monstrous thing. That Bear moved around more than us, killing more spiders than we did. Yet, she didn’t even show any sign of fatigue.

What a monster.

“Where’s the girl?” (Village Chief)

The Village Chief asked, looking at the door. Maybe he thought we’d abandoned her.

“She’s still fighting.” (Deborane)

I informed him of the current situation. I explained that the spiders that appeared in the village had been eradicated, but a King Spider appeared. The Village Chief, unfortunately, did not react well.

As an ordinary person, it was no wonder he didn’t know about the King Spider, so I explained the same thing I explained to the Bear.

“Is it that strong?” (Village Chief)

“It can’t compare to the spiders that appeared in the village. You have to decide if you want to flee the village or stay.” (Deborane)

“…But, to leave the old people behind.” (Village Chief)

The Village Chief looked pained.

“Yes, because even if we escape, there is no guarantee that we will all survive.” (Deborane)

If they were attacked while fleeing, they would likely be abandoned.

“It’s only one enemy, can’t even Deborane-san and Lanz-san defeat it?” (Village Chief)

“I wish I could say we could beat it, but we can’t.” (Lanz)

“If there’s anyone capable of defeating it, it’s only that Bear.” (Deborane)

I hate to admit this, but that Bear defeated a Goblin King and a Black Viper alone.

I have also heard many other rumors, some unbelievable and some not.

If anyone here could beat that King Spider, only that Bear could do it.

“The young lady dressed as a Bear…” (Village Chief)

“It’s no surprise that you don’t believe me.” (Deborane)

A long time ago, at first, I couldn’t believe her, either.

“Regardless if that Bear beats the King Spider, you’ll have to make up your mind before the end.” (Deborane)

This was not my decision to make.

It was up to the Village Chief to decide.

I was simply following instructions.

I gave him my report and stood up from my chair.

I rested a little, which allowed me to catch my breath.

“Lanz, let’s go.” (Deborane)

“Where to?” (Lanz)

“I don’t like it, but I’ll help the Bear improve her chances of defeating the King Spider.” (Deborane)

“Are you going to fight the King Spider?” (Lanz)

“If you don’t want to, stay here.” (Deborane)

“No, if Deborane-san wants to go, I’ll go with you.” (Lanz)

Lanz and I left the Village Chief’s house to look for the Bear and the King Spider, who were still moving around in the village, and we soon found them.

“What the heck was that speed?” (Deborane)

Bear and King Spider were moving around the village with incredible movement.

Right, left, and inhumanly fast.

Were they enhanced with magic?

“Deborane-san, you know, we might just get in the way of the fight.” (Lanz)

I know.

I couldn’t keep up with those kinds of movements.

I couldn’t even enter the fight.

I specialize in one-hit kills.

Observing the movement of the Bear and the King Spider, I noticed that the King Spider often stopped in front of a house.

Bear also tried to attack, but her hand would stop.

“Why doesn’t she attack?” (Deborane)

“It’s probably because of the houses.” (Lanz)

I have seen the Bear’s magic several times, and it was powerful.

And in order to defeat the King Spider, she would have to increase the power of her magic.

If she unleashed a powerful spell, the house near the King Spider would definitely become collateral damage, and the people inside would be trapped under the collapsed house. Therefore, Bear could not attack.

Looking around for a way out, he found a ladder propped up against the wall of a house.

“Lanz, I’m going to attack from the roof. Tell me the location of the King Spider and the Bear.” (Deborane)

Lanz immediately nodded in understanding.

I slowly make my way up the ladder to the roof of one of the houses.

I have only one chance.

I duck low on the roof and watch Lanz.

Lanz used hand signs to tell me where the King Spider was.

Hand signs could be used to communicate with distant companions when pinning down monsters or animals.

Lanz’s hand sign said they were still moving around. I wait with my big sword in hand.

Come on, get over here.

I stay low, waiting for Lanz to give me a sign.

Lanz looked a little flustered and sent me a signal.

I could hear them approaching.

I saw the Bear and the King Spider approaching.

They were fast. I could never defeat a monster like that head-on. But the fact that Bear could keep up with the King Spider’s movements was also amazing.

Even though she’s wearing such a strange outfit. If you are that strong, you should wear clothes that make you look strong.

While I was thinking about that, Bear and the spider came to the front of the house where I was.

They came in front of the house where I was.

The king spider ran away from Bear and hid from her view.

It seemed to know that the Bear couldn’t attack it, so the King Spider stopped moving when it came in front of the house.

It was my chance.

I clenched my greatsword tightly and jumped down from the roof, aiming at the King Spider.

***

Yuna PoV:

“Orya!”

A goblin screamed as he went crashing. Wait, I thought it was a goblin, but it was Deborane with a greatsword in hand.

Deborane jumped off the house’s roof, aiming for the King Spider.

Perfect timing, even for Deborane.

The King Spider could not avoid the unexpected attack from above.

Just as Deborane’s great sword was about to pierce the King Spider, the King Spider’s body glows red, again revealing the golden pattern resembling a shining crown.

Then Deborane’s sword, which was supposed to pierce the King Spider, was repelled, and Deborane, having his sword repelled, tumbled to the ground. The King Spider, surprised by the attack of the sword, fled.

“Deborane-san, are you okay?” (Yuna)

Lanz rushed to the fallen Deborane, and Deborane stood up with Lanz’s help, looking frustrated.

“Damn, even that timing didn’t work.” (Deborane)

I could understand why he yelled.

Well, that spider might have also sensed his presence.

It did avoid my attack from behind before.

“Why did you two do that?” (Yuna)

“Because you couldn’t defeat the King Spider quickly, it’s taking a lot of time!” (Deborane)

So that’s why they came to help.

“The villagers…” (Yuna)

The people of the village have a choice: they could sacrifice some people and abandon their village, or they could stay.

“This also depends on you. If you determine that you can’t defeat that thing, then the Village Chief will decide. If I had a weapon that could pierce that spider’s body, I wouldn’t be relying on you.” (Deborane)

“That’s why I told you to buy Mithril’s sword.” (Lanz)

Lanz answered Deborane’s complaint.

“Shut up, a small sword like that doesn’t fit me.” (Deborane)

“It can’t be helped, Deborane-san’s sword is so big, a Mithril sword with such a big blade is too expensive.” (Lanz)

According to Fina, even Mithril knives were expensive. An ordinary sword would be even more expensive; let alone a large Mithril greatsword the size of which Deborane’s preferred size definitely would not be easy to buy.

“Bear! You said you’d beat it. Why are you holding back?” (Deborane)

Deborane started to get angry at me as if he couldn’t talk back to Lanz. I didn’t want him to take it out on me.

“Even if you say that to me, I can’t hit it with my attacks because it’s moving too fast. Even when I have a chance to attack, I am not able to use powerful spells because it would stick to a house preventing me from unleashing my spells.” (Yuna)

It was stressful for me as well.

Bear Wind Blade, Bear Fire, Bear Electric magic, couldn’t be unleashed carelessly.

Besides, one hit of powerful magic would not be enough to beat it. I did hit it with Bear Wind Magic before, but it barely damaged it.

If I released Bear magic in close sequence in the village, the surrounding area could suffer a lot of damage.

Who was it that said that if the fight was not in the ocean, it would be okay as long as it was not in a confined space?

It was me!

But Deborane’s and Lanz’s words reminded me of my Mithril Knives.

The Mithril knife would be more powerful if I put my magic into it, although Lanz did not say that Mithril weapons could cut that King Spider.

Besides, if I attacked with a knife, I wouldn’t have to worry about the houses that it uses to escape. I didn’t want to get too close to the spider, so my deep psyche tucked the memory of my Mithril knives away in my mind.

If there were any problems, it would be how to approach it.

At that speed, it was not easy to approach.

I looked at Deborane and Lanz.

…Poof.

I had a good idea.

“What’s with that smile?” (Deborane)

Apparently, I was smiling when I looked at Deborane.

I thought I was good at putting on a poker face, but it showed in my expression. I dusted off my cheeks with my Bear Puppet.

“I have a plan in order to defeat King Spider.” (Yuna)

“What?” (Deborane)

“…” (Yuna)

Deborane looked at me with disgust when he heard my idea.

“So you can really defeat it?” (Deborane)

“If we don’t do it that way, we’ll be out of luck, and if it escapes into the forest, I think we’ll have even more trouble defeating it.” (Yuna)

If it escaped into the forest at that speed, it would be difficult to defeat it even with my detection skills.

Besides, if it were to escape into the forest, the village’s residents would have to live with the constant fear of not knowing when the King Spider would return.

Leaving the village and living elsewhere would be challenging.

“So what will you do?” (Yuna)

“…Damn! I’ll take that King Spider’s material when we beat it! Come on Lanz!” (Deborane)

“Deborane-san!” (Lanz)

Deborane and Lanz started to run.

It seemed that they had reluctantly accepted my idea.

I summoned Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear for help.

When I summon Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, they look unhappy. Apparently, they were angry with me for returning them.

“Sorry, don’t be so mad, I need you both to help me with something.” (Yuna)

I pat Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear on the head and tell them how to defeat the King Spider, putting them in a good mood.

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were a little uncomfortable with my strategy.

Well, I would hate it if I were Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, but I couldn’t leave them to their deaths.

“If we can’t beat it here, there will be damage, please. I’ll give you more honey for a week, then we’ll bathe together and sleep together.” (Yuna)

I asked as I put my Bear Puppet together.

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear looked at each other and cooed as if to say, “We don’t have a choice”.

“Thank you. Now, Swaying Bear, follow Deborane and let me know when everything is ready.” (Yuna)

“Kuun!”

Swaying Bear cooed and followed Deborane.

“Hugging Bear, we’ll be dealing with the King Spider.” (Yuna)

“Kuun!”

I only concentrated on keeping the King Spider from escaping and drawing its attention to me so that it would not cause damage to its surroundings until Deborane and Lanz were ready to go.

When Hugging Bear was targeted, I would return or re-summon it, not let it take damage. The King Spider gets annoyed when I do that.

Then, after a while, Swaying Bear’s cry could be heard from somewhere in the village.
