Man-eater Bear

Roaaaar!

A roar almost deafened Alexander, who was out hunting. He looked around and saw a huge bear with red eyes.

"A man-eating bear..." Alexander narrowed his eyes and felt cold sweat run down his forehead.

Man-eating bears live in the forests and feed on people or other animals.

Their babies are born with D-levels, and adults can even reach C+ levels.

And this bear...

...was level C+.

He pulled out the regular sword he'd bought from the store and got ready, getting into a stance. Alexander took a step back and dodged the bear's blow.

"RAAAAAR!"

The bear shouted furiously and pawed his chest as if imitating King Kong.

Through this action, it sent out strong magical vibrations that penetrated Alexander's body.

"Shit!"

Alexander cursed quietly as he felt the bones on his rib cage being broken.

"Gha!"

And, as if that wasn't enough, Alexander fell to his knees and coughed up blood. Because of the alien energy, the flow of magical energy was disrupted.

He got up, but was stunned by a blow to the head and fell again. But this time Alexander reacted quickly.

After waiting until the bear came closer, Alexander froze and prepared a spell.

Thanks to his keen hearing, Alexander could easily hear the bear's movements. Judging by his senses, he was standing directly above him and leaning in.

"NOW!"

Alexander rested his hands on the ground and lifted his feet, hitting the bear's muzzle.

"RAAAR!!!"

The bear roared in pain and recoiled, giving Alexander time to finish the spell.

"Burn with hellfire, IGNIS!"

Alexander accumulated a red fireball in his hand and then turned it into a wave, throwing it at the bear.

As it flew, the flame grew stronger, absorbing magical energy in the atmosphere for amplification.

As soon as the wave of fire reached the bear...

BOOM!

There was a tremendous explosion, which caused Alexander to jump back to a safe distance.

From a distance, he could hear the cries and screams of the bear. However, Alexander decided to wait and see the result.

The smoke cleared and the ogre bear appeared, full of wounds and burns. He looked pathetic and weak.

But the magical energy was steady, showing that the attack was ineffective.

Alexander clenched his teeth and began to cast the spell. He felt fatigued attacking his body, but he didn't stop.

Soon a small needle of fire appeared in his hand, but its temperature was astonishing!

Comparable to the temperature of the sun, the needle flew toward the bear's chest, leaving behind a whistling wind and a trail of fire.

The air seemed to explode from that temperature as the sound of the explosion rang out.

Finally, the needle reached the bear and there was an explosion!

"ROAAAAAAAAR!"

Alexander paid no attention to the danger and ran forward. He saw the bear's chest was pierced through

He gritted his teeth and struck where the bear's heart was. It resisted, of course.

But the intense pain made the bear lose its bearings and could only growl nonstop.

Alexander grasped the handle firmly and twisted it sharply in the bear's chest.

"RAAAAAAAR!"

The bear screamed in agony and its red eyes lost their brightness until they went out.

Alexander collapsed on his heel and tried to catch his breath, but suddenly he heard a roar.

"ROAR!!!"

He stood up sharply, disregarding the fatigue and pain in his chest, Alexander quickly gathered up the dear body parts of the ogre bear and ran away.

After Alexander left, a group of cannibal bears appeared on the scene.

The largest of them had a scar dividing his muzzle in two. He looked around dangerously.

Seeing the death of their kin, the bears screamed furiously.

The big man-eating bear walked over to the corpse and saw a steel sword sticking out of its chest.

His eyes suddenly lit up strangely and he roared into the sky.

"ROAAAAAAAAR!"

A tremendous amount of magical energy burst out of his body, causing a strong wind two kilometers away.

He was a B+ level!

The big ogre bear, perhaps the leader, remembered the scent on his sword hilt and turned away, walking away into the woods.

The rest of the ogre bears followed him. Each of them had a B-level, which is impossible for regular ogre bears.

But what about mutants?

...

Alexander returned home, shattered, but with a good catch.

He had enough money for a normal man to live three generations in peace.

His clothes were shabby, but his wounds were healed. There were healers at the exit of the Unreturned Space who treated the wounded for money.

This space is full of wild beasts and monsters to hunt and earn money from their prey.

In addition, one can improve one's development in this place. After all, on the brink of despair, a man can achieve the impossible.

Alexander entered the house and smelled a pleasant odor. He raised an eyebrow and headed toward the kitchen, seeing Victoria and Maria.

Maria was teaching Victoria how to cook. The latter listened with a serious expression on her face and did her best to prepare the food properly.

Alexander froze at her determination and smiled softly. He concealed his aura and changed his clothes as he left the house.

They had just started training, so Alexander decided to come back a little later.

He stepped out of the house and felt the cold air. It was already September and the weather was not as warm as he would have liked it to be.

Alexander looked at the bright sun and squinted his eyes. For a moment his eyes lit up with purple light and he saw strange writings in the sky that shimmered in different geometric shapes.

But as soon as he blinked, it was gone. Alexander only squinted harder, sensing something wrong.

But he still didn't understand what it was.

...

Away from the Mortal World...

Not far from space C-k1702 there was a battle that destroyed many small spaces around it.

Two small children were aggressively punching each other, but despite the force of the punch, they were not aggressive in their blows.

During the battle, they suddenly froze and looked in the direction of the Mortal World, where Alexander was.

They squinted their eyes in sync and approached each other.

"Did you feel it too, big brother?" A boy with black hair and light purple eyes and a mole under his left eye asked the other boy.

The second boy, who also had black hair and light purple eyes, and a mole under his right eye, replied, "Yes. That's very suspicious since I hadn't heard of anyone being there..."

They had nice looks, but their young age made them look "cute" rather than "pretty."

"What do you kids do?" Suddenly a voice was heard and the children turned to see a beautiful woman.

She had blond hair and blue eyes the color of an immense sky. She smiled softly and looked at the two children with a loving look.

"Mummy!"

As they embraced her, however, they forgot their worries and doubts.
