Hmm… what should I do?
I could vaguely hear the distinct sounds of the river, but it was unlikely for me to return to the village within an acceptable time if I did decide to go.

「Should I just take a stroll in the forest and stay within the immediate area of the village?」

ーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー

B-bad, this is definitely bad!
There’s a monster bear standing not too far away in front of me.
It’s about 4-5m, and is looking at me with the eyes of a predator that just trapped its prey.
A darkish-red coat of fur covers the entirety of it’s body, reminiscent of the colour of blood.
The bear’s claws are definitely too sharp! One blow from those things would definitely be dangerously deadly.
Without the minuscule guidance granted by the slivers of light from the moon, I might have been eaten without myself even noticing it!
H-hey!… If you look properly, it’s mouth and the surrounding fur on it’s face was drenched in liquid red, the blood of a recent successful hunt.
I spot a mangled corpse, not too far away next to the bear. It vaguely resembled some sort of short humanoid figure… Was that guy a goblin in the ground?
Well, even if my assumption was correct, I’m pretty sure everyone else wouldn’t even dare to look at the remains for too long, more so come to the conclusion to what it was.

Then, wouldn’t the current situation go something like this?

The bear was probably eating and enjoying it’s food when I accidentally stumbled across it. After the short encounter, the bear must have thought that I was here to steal his prey or something… At least, that’s the most logical outcome.
If my hypothesis is true though, those primal thoughts from the monster bear definitely raised a few danger flags.

In the middle of my assessment, the monster spontaneously erupted from it’s position and swiped down with it’s razor sharp claws.

Acting by pure instincts, I was barely able to avoid and sidestep the attack.

Immediately after my near-death experience, a loud 『crash』 rang throughout the forest.
The big tree from behind where I stood before broke from its roots in an instant.
It looks like I have no choice but to stand my ground and fight here.
I take out the 《Jet-Black Rapier》 and positioned myself in a fighting stance towards the monster bear.
As the bear sees my response to fight along with my weapon, it’s attention level went through a large spike, watching for any sudden weaknesses.
~Oooo, this is bad, my hands are beginning to shake and tremble!
I take a deep breath and exhale – I must calm down here. Think.
If I’m not mistaken, the weak point of the monster bear is its eyes.
Lets do it! I cannot afford to die here.
(Nexias Note: JUST DO IT xD)

Sophina’s 【Welcome back】 is waiting!
After setting up such goals and strengthening my resolve, the shaking calmed down and my mind entered serene state.
At that moment, the monster bear charged once again, unable to contain it’s impatience.

In response, I swiftly jumped into the air at the same time.
From the view overhead, it seems that the monster bear is confused and is looking for my whereabouts.
A chance!
I stabbed the rapier into the crown head of the monster bear as it is. Without any resistance, the monster stopped it’s movements, before a final set of spasms indicated it’s death.
The monster bear died instantly.
「Yes, seems like today’s meal is a bear dish.」
