In the actual world, bears do not travel to one destination, the other monsters in Abyssal Terra are the same, but Bear Beast Claw is different.

They seemed created only to distract Hunter on their way to the West Station. Because there is only one route that can be used to get to the West Station.

Ars has never been on that route, but it doesn't matter for now.

A group of Bear Beasts were still strolling toward their destination. During their trip they were passive. They will turn aggressive if they find a Hunter, or there is an approaching danger, such as a danger that has just killed one of them.

"One head."

Ars killed one. The remaining 12 were roaring at him.

Ars immediately ran away.

Bears can run at a speed of 40km / hour. For Bear Beast Claw, they could run as fast as 60km / hour.

Luckily, Yin trains Ars' stamina and speed. [Cultivate] also adds 25% experience that Ars gets.

Bear Beast Claw continued to chase Ars. But they lost him, who was running twice as fast as them. Makes them stop and think, where did their prey just go.

Not allowed to think, Ars cut the head of one of them off. The sudden attack confused them and split them apart.

Their prey immediately disappeared back into the darkness of the forest. They can't do anything.

One thing is certain, the Hunter who killed them left the sword he used to kill in the body of his victim.

Unable to move, Ars slaughtered some of them.

"Groooaarrr!"

One of the Bear Beasts noticed Ars' jump and raised its claw.

In midair, Ars couldn't dodge, so he used his sword to parry.

Losing in a power struggle, a slash in Ars' left hand gets through and hit him.

It is certain Ars could not keep up with the physical strength of the Bear Beast. He had to kill them without having to fight weapons.

Ars moved backwards, but one Bear Beast intercepted and raised its claws. Ars dodged every swing of the Bear Beast's claws while taking a few steps back.

They are strong, but they lack in terms of attack speed.

Previously, Ars too scared to face them one on one. But not anymore. After he could so easily dodge their every attack.

Because of their long and deadly claws, they didn't attack simultaneously. The instinct instilled in them is their greatest weakness.

That way, Ars can kill them off one by one, without having to run around and attack suddenly like before.

"You cheapskate bastard!"

All the hard work and pain that Ars sacrificed cost only 2% more damage to Bear Beast Claw.

However, Ars's disappointment faded when he saw another [Trophy] sequence under [Bear Beast Killer I].

"Woah, I did think you would get hurt! But, are you okay?"

Seeing Ars who returned, Yin felt a little worried.

Ars stopped when he runs into Yin, "We don't have a fixed schedule for this stupid practice, do we?"

"Well, I really am stupid at teaching others. But at least it works on a fool like you, right? So what?"

"Tomorrow, just give me more swords, and you won't have to watch me anymore."

After that Ars left, returned to house.

Yin did not know what demon possessed his only pupil. However, "I like the look in your eyes."

The next day. As he requested yesterday, Ars went hunting without the need to watch by Yin.

After running far enough in the Giant Leaf Woods, Ars finally found a group of Bear Beasts that would become materials for him to level up, or rather, open new Trophy.

"[Object#0004]"

With all the swords Yin gave, Ars didn't have to worry about the weapons he used going blunt. Then all he needed to do is fight with all his might. While [Cultivate: 25 Hours 56 Minutes 23 Seconds] still has time.

Ars who already knew the attack pattern of the sharp-toed bear monster had no problem facing them all.
