Returning From The Magic World

Of course, there were more beasts that they encountered as they went further into the forest.

At this moment, there was a reckless bear. It climbed to the top of a tree branch that happened to be above the river.

From there, the bear knelt down in a position like it wanted to jump, which it obviously did to wait for Arthur and the others.

Compared to the other bears, this one was much bigger, had thick brown fur and long nails.

One scratch from it was probably enough to tear through human flesh.

"Aunt, how about you fight this bear," Arthur said.

Isabel responded with a nod, she stepped forward to the end of the tree trunk.

Once there, she put her hair in a ponytail.

"Come on..." She looked up at the bear and waved her hand to provoke it. It seemed that just a slightly bigger bear didn\'t scare her, unlike the snake before. Probably because the latter amused her.

Provoked, the bear was naturally angry. Its mouth opened, letting out a loud purring sound.

Whoosh!

The bear jumped when it was sure that it would reach where Isabel was standing.

The latter pointed her hand at it, then chanted an incantation.

Immediately afterwards hundreds of lightning bolts shot out from her hand. They gathered, forming a transparent spear. It wasn\'t very long but had a very sharp tip. Plus, it kept releasing electric sparks that when they hit the water, instantly produced smoke.

The bear\'s eyes narrowed at the lightning spear. Its low intelligence made it not really understand. However, it instincts told it that it was dangerous.

Of course, since it was already in the air, dodging or anything else was no longer possible.

Whoosh!

The lightning spear shot out as Isabel moved her hand. Its speed was truly like lightning descending from the sky while its light illuminated the darkness for a moment.

In an instant, it hit the bear\'s chest and pierced it.

At the same time, its lightning sparks struck every part of its body until flames ignited in its fur.

"Aooo!!!"

The bear screamed, and moved chaotically as if its soul was being ripped out of its body.

When it arrived in front of Isabel, Isabel drove her foot into its chest to kick it.

As a middle-aged woman who had never practiced martial arts, it should have been difficult for her to move her foot.

However, as she kicked the bear, her leg moved like a whip, swinging very quickly.

BANG!

The sole of her foot slammed right into the bear\'s chest, causing the bear to be thrown several meters away before falling into the river.

Only, Isabel\'s movement caused the tree trunk to sway. It didn\'t affect Arthur and Nova, but Isabel who was now standing on one leg almost fell again.

"Arthur, help me!" She suddenly called for help before Arthur moved, it seemed that this time she had more difficulty than before.

In response, he grabbed her hand, pulling her towards the center of the tree trunk. This time, he only needed to hold her back to stabilize her body.

Phew!

She sighed, just like before. Her gaze then looked at the bear that was clearly dead.

There was a hint of disbelief on her face because in reality, the bear was bigger than her. It should have easily killed her, but with just a casual movement from her, the bear was dead in less than half a minute.

Of course, the fight didn\'t quite satisfy her because it was too short.

When the tree trunk arrived next to the bear\'s corpse, Arthur stopped it.

Then, he grabbed the bear\'s corpse.

"Arthur, what did you take it for?" asked Isabel in confusion.

She looked uncomfortable as she looked at the corpse closely. Perhaps she was disgusted or felt guilty for killing the animal.

When she used her power, she didn\'t feel that. What she felt was like killing a mosquito that was trying to bite her, but the sensation was suddenly different when she wasn\'t using her powers. She realized that she had killed a large animal.

"This is the first beast you\'ve killed, are you not interested in making its skin and fur your clothes?" Arthur answered with a question.

"Of course, if you don\'t want to, I will still keep it for you," he added.

It may seem insignificant, but this was a kind of custom for people who lived for power.

Isabel showed a strange expression at Arthur\'s words. She stared at the bear\'s corpse again.

Clothes created from the fur and skin of a bear must be very expensive. She was naturally interested. Plus, it was a bear that she killed herself.

"How are we going to carry it, I think it\'s a bit troublesome?" Isabel said. Now she was hesitant about how to carry the bearskin.

Arthur smiled and replied, "don\'t worry, it\'s easy!"

Then, he began to separate the bear skin from the meat using the wind knife he had invented.

It wasn\'t that he couldn\'t create an iron blade because he also knew the spell to create iron. However, it required more energy since it was a permanent object.

About five minutes later, he managed to separate the entire bear skin.

While raising the skin up the tree trunk, he drowned the bear\'s corpse.

After that, he dried the skin with his fire magic.

He folded it until it became smaller. However, even with a few folds, it was still bigger than a briefcase. Carrying it was obviously very inconvenient.

However, Arthur did not plan to carry it.

He looked up at the sky and threw the leather until it landed on the top of a tree.

"Why did you throw it?" Isabel became even more confused.

"My harpy will pick it up later," Arthur replied. He activated the magic that pushed the tree trunk again.

Isabel, having heard Arthur\'s words, looked up at the sky.

She already knew about the two harpies that Arthur and Amanda had bought, she had just never seen them. She wondered if they could really find this place.

Arthur had no doubts about the harpies\' abilities.

With their keen eyesight, they would definitely be able to find the skin even if they flew up to two kilometers in the air.
