Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear-Novel

Chapter 635

Bear-san defeats the King Spider.

“Kuu?un”

Somewhere in the village, I heard Swaying Bear’s cry, and I used my detection skill to locate Swaying Bear.

“Hugging Bear, tell Swaying Bear I know where he is.”

“Kuun.”

Swaying Bear’s response to the Detection skill begins to move.

“Hugging Bear, let’s go to where the King Spider is guided to.”

“Kuu~n.”

We soon joined with Swaying Bear, blocking the way and restricting the King Spider’s actions with the combination of Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, making it guide the King Spider to the place we planned.

That way, there you go. I created a wall of dirt. Since the King Spider could easily try to climb up the wall, I casted a magic spell, which the King Spider escaped from. But this magic was designed to guide the King Spider to a certain location.

We were almost there.

In front of us, we saw an old house.

I checked it against with my detection skills and found that it was the place where the Swaying Bear had cried.

There was a certain house on that location.

My detection skill showed two human presence inside the house.

The King Spider clung to the wall of the house and used the house as a shield; the King Spider thought I was incapable of attacking it. That was the first time the King Spider was caught off guard.

I gathered my magic power in my hands and released enough wind magic to destroy the house, as if to vent my previous frustration.

“Blow it up ～～～～～～!”

The wind became a tornado and rose up, engulfing the King Spider and the crumbling house.

“Damn!”

“Deborane-san!”

In the tornado that caught the King Spider, Deborane, and Lanz were caught in the tornado as well as the collapsed house.

I stopped the tornado and jumped into the debris. Heading in a straight line towards King Spider.

I saw an unpleasant sight in front of me. Its mouth was agape, and its eyes were glaring at me.

It was the first and last time I would endure this.

“You can’t escape from me while floating in the air, can you?”

In my left and right hands were Mithril knives. The black Bear Puppet holding the Swaying Bear knife with the black handle. The white Bear Puppet was holding a white-coloured-handle Hugging Bear knife.

The King Spider’s defenses may just repel Bear Wind Magic. It may also withstand other magic.

Therefore, I used the Mithril knife to make sure that it would be defeated.

I poured magic power into the two knives.

The King Spider closed its mouth, its body turned red, and the golden crown pattern emerged.

It was in full defensive posture.

This was my only chance.

There may not be a second chance.

I did not plan to cut the King Spider’s body, but its legs, and its joints.

I swung the Swaying Bear knife toward the King Spider.

Without resistance, the King Spider’s leg was cut off.

Even though it was hardened by magic power, it could not prevent the Mithril Knife with my magic power in it.

The joints were the weakest part.

Joints tend to be softer than other body parts because they have to bend. And it was a spider with high flexibility. There was a limit to how hard it could be fixed.

Then, I hacked off all of its eight legs with my Swaying Bear knife and Hugging Bear knife.

At the same time, I, who was in the air, fell to the ground with the King Spider and the broken house, pulled by gravity.

When I landed on the ground, the broken house fell behind me, and a terrible noise echoed through the air.

Then, the body of the King Spider, which had become only its torso, rolled in front of me.

There was no escape now.

As I approached the King Spider, it opened its mouth and tried to spit out its threads in a last-ditch effort.

I endured the sickening sensation and stabbed the King Spider with my knife to finish it off.

It was over.

I turned around and looked at the collapsed house.

“Two people didn’t die in vain, right?”

I was sure that Deborane and Lanz would be trapped under this collapsed house….

“Don’t kill us on your own!”

“You’re killing us!”

“Hmph!”

I chuckled when I heard Deborane and Lanz emerge from the rubble, complaining.

“Don’t laugh.”

That was impossible.

Because Deborane and Lanz were being held in a princess carry by Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, it was impossible not to laugh at this.

Again, when I saw Deborane and Lanz being held by Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, I burst out laughing.

“Bear! Enough, get me down!”

Deborane flailed in Swaying Bear’s arms.

“Let them go.”

“Kuun.”

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear drop Deborane and Lanz to the ground as if they were throwing out trash.

“Ow!”

“Don’t throw us!”

Well, we finally got the results we were looking for.

The plan had followed the script to the tee. First, I had Deborane and Lanz stay in a vacant house, and when the Swaying Bear was ready, I would have it cry out to lure the spider, and on cue, I would use my detection skills to locate Swaying Bear.

Once that location was confirmed, I and Hugging Bear (and Swaying Bear, who would join us) would lead King Spider to the house.

Then, when the King Spider was attached to the house, I magically sent the entire house flying into the sky.

The spider was fast on the ground but could not move in the air.

The King Spider must have thought I could not attack it because people were in the house.

It was a pity that the King Spider’s intelligence turned out to be a disadvantage.

I took down King Spider in the air while Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear secured Deborane and Lanz as they fell down.

Deborane and Lanz agreed to this plan, even though they might get slightly injured.

I did ask Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear to save them when the house got blown away, but they didn’t want to do that.

Well, I didn’t want to carry Deborane in my arms either (even though its possible because of my Bear equipment).

As promised, I would have to give them honey, a bath, and then sleep with them later.

“Damn, you really were relentless, I thought I was going to die when I flew through the air with the whole house.”

“I thought I was dead the moment I flew through the air.”

“But that way, you two became a decoy.”

When Deborane told me my plan, he looked disgusted, but when I told him I would be able to defeat the spider with that plan, he agreed.

“I don’t like you, but I know you’re good at what you do.”

“I only agreed to do it because Deborane-san told me to.”

I would never have done it if it had been Fina or Noa. I wouldn’t let them do it in the first place, and I wouldn’t ask them to do it.

Of course, even a villager I didn’t know wouldn’t be able to do it.

Because it was the two of them, I could blow up the whole house with magic without hesitation.

In the future, if I needed a decoy, I might ask the two of them to do it. It was valuable to have someone I could use magic on without hesitation.

“But I’ll take all the spider’s materials, as promised.”

Deborane said as he looked at the defeated King Spider.

“About that…”

“I told you. Later, if you want it, I won’t give it to you.”

“No, no. I just want you to use a little bit of the money for the sake of this village.”

Deborane and Lanz looked at the village.

I remembered the spiders in the village and the people Deborane and Lanz helped. The village was in a terrible state of disarray because of the spiders’ rampage.

Lanz just told me that some horses have been killed and crops have been damaged.

However, some houses were destroyed.

Reconstruction, like everything else, would definitely cost a lot of money.

“Normally I would get paid for helping them, but, well, I guess it’s okay this time.”

Deborane thought for a moment and responded.

I expected him to resist, but I didn’t expect him to agree quickly.

“But with this, it should be really over, right?”

“Yeah.”

Those were Lanz’s words, but I agree it was over.

It should have been an easy request to take down a Tiger Wolf, but it became an extremely tiring task.

Once again, I realized that no opponent was more difficult to fight than one specializing in running away.

We went to the Village Chief’s house to report that we had defeated the King Spider.

“It’s all done!”

Deborane called out to the house, and the Village Chief came out.

“Are you sure?”

He then went around the village with the Village Chief to get confirmation of the subjugation.

The Village Chief expressed his disappointment at the damage to the village, but when Deborane told him that some of the monsters killed would be used to fund reconstruction, he seemed happy and thanked Deborane several times.

When Deborane said, “That’s what that Bear told me to do,” he also thanked me.

The house we used was apparently empty, but it was still important for the village.

He then informed the villagers hiding inside the house that the spiders were gone.

But the spider’s threads prevent them from getting out of the house, so Deborane and Lanz use a knife to cut off the threads tangled around the door.

This was going to be a big job to deal with all the threads wrapped around the house.

They said they would leave it as it was, as it might compromise the house’s strength if not properly dealt with.

Of course, we removed the threads on doorways and windows.

The villagers thanked Deborane and Lanz when they came out of their houses.

No one thanked me. On the contrary, they looked at me as if they were looking at something strange.

It was like Deborane and Lanz, who instructed them to hide inside their house and not to look outside.

And when they went outside the house, the spiders had been exterminated. Everyone thought Deborane and Lanz had defeated it.

No one thought that the girl in the Bear outfit had saved them.

“Well, I’ll be taking my leave, can you take care of the rest?”

Having rescued the villagers, I decide to leave. If I was late, Fina and the others would worry.

I could use my Bear phone to tell them the current situation, but there was no need to make them anxious.

“If you’re leaving first, report to the Adventurers’ Guild.”

Oh, indeed, that would be necessary in this case.

“Besides, there might still be spiders left in the forest. Report about that. It’s up to this village whether to send a request to the adventurers to search the forest, but, well, this time you said you would give up all the spider material, so that’s where the money for that request should come from.”

“Aren’t you being kind? Are you trying to trick me?”

“What are you talking about? I’m a nice guy.”

“You’ve got to be kidding me.”

If Deborane was nice, he wouldn’t have bullied a rookie.

I do admit that Deborane was a proper adventurer.

Well, Deborane was right, I should report this matter to the Adventurers’ Guild as soon as possible.

“All right, let’s make Deborane be the one to defeat it, shall we?”

Since I was leaving the materials to him, it would be easier to push over the results.

“Screw you! I can’t make a monster I haven’t defeated into my own problem! Besides, I don’t want people to think that I can defeat King Spider and then have to fight the next time it appears again.”

Even if someone claimed to have defeated a strong monster, it would not be proven without the strength to show that they could defeat it. And I agree that it would be annoying if people thought that that person could defeat the same monster when it appeared again.

Being vain without being worthy of your stature would only destroy you.

I left Deborane and Lanz to take care of the rest and left the village.
