(Kyosei's View)

The undead bear is just too strong for me to handle. It was much harder to cover his attacks because of the claws. I can't even compare it to the Juggernaut that is much easier to dodge and kill. This monster is just hard enough to deal with. With skin as durable as rubber, it is something I can say to be impossible to penetrate. Even when I tried to use my strength that manifested when I used the Naginata to destroy the bulletproof glass, this bear did not even have any kind of problem bouncing the blade.

I already alternated Naginata and Kukri again and again. I even tried shooting this bear in the head using the Beretta M9 Pistol but the bullet just bounced off like rubber bullet.

"Damn it, you are just a bear, you can't expect me to just allow myself to get devoured by you don't I?" I gritted my teeth as I block the claws of the bear. My kukri's blade is ready to get blasted off the hilt already from blocking the claws alone but the bear barely has any injuries.

I still have a grenade in my pocket but I doubt this would help. Also, it is much riskier to catch the bear off guard as this monster can rip off flesh if you are not careful. I am out of option, let's try using a heavy machine gun. I am avoiding the usage of the AR15 since it can attract unwanted attention from surrounding enemies. However, this is no time for me to just conserve ammunition. This is a matter of life and death and my only choice of at the moment is to use a gun.

"F*ck this sh*t," I grumbled and pull out the AR15 and run a bit of distance from the bear before I started pulling the trigger to the monster.

"ROAAAAARRRRR!"

The bear was obviously hurt but the bullets barely did any damage. Although many of the bullets penetrated the thick skin of the bear, it didn't make any good damage to this monster which is a big middle finger to that.

I am running out of options in fighting the bear since my arsenal can't deal enough damage to the bear. I hope I still have enough grenades but I only have a single grenade left which would take too many limitations for me. I hate to say it but I need backup this time. I have no fighting chance against this monster.

Just as I was about to run away, a gunshot rang out in the area and the bear's head exploded after. I was surprised but I quickly recovered and looked for the direction of the helper and saw Kato above the tree while holding an Accuracy International AWM.

"Sometimes Kyosei, you need to ask for help. Also, melees are not always the best weapon to deal with monsters like this! You shouldn't be so hasty about it. Luckily, I saved your ass this time," Kato said and goes down the tree.

"Hmmph. I don't really care, but you have my gratitude. Still, how did you manage to kill a bear in one shot?"

"Accuracy International AWM can be an overkill on the bear. A shotgun rifle would make it a bit easier to kill a bear. You did not know how to kill a bear right? A shot on the head with a high caliber sniper rifle like the AWM is enough to deal damage to it. A shotgun rifle can kill this bear easily too but I don't have it at the moment so I only used this bad boy."

I see. A higher caliber gun would make the difference huh? However, I know that guns just don't have much power over me since I lack the skill to use it. But I guess it was really worth a shot in the future. Still, this battle made me realize that my ability in battle still lacked something and I needed to at least train my ability a bit more to a higher extent.

Kato crouched and checked the bear's body. I was disinterested at first but then, Kato beckons me over while his eyes are glued on the broken neck of the bear.

"Look at this thing Kyosei. Do you saw this kind of thing before?"

I frowned and decided to check what he was talking about and saw a black metallic luster item inside the body of the bear. It was rather peculiar since I don't remember bears to have stones like this on their body. This was the first time I have seen this kind of thing.

"Can you pull the metal out of the body of this beast?" I looked at Kato.

"I can but it would take time especially if this item is buried deep on the bear's body. Digging it would take time and our mission is still ongoing. But if you really wish to take this metallic item off, we could really dig it out together. What do you say?" Kato looked at me.

I ready my kukri and approached the corpse before responding to Kato. "Less talk, more action."

Kato chuckled and pulls out his machete and helped me with the extraction. It was quite hard at first because the skin of the bear is indeed hard for us. But it didn't take too much time because the metallic luster is just around the size of a kitchen knife. It didn't even make enough size from my expectations.

"What the heck is this? How come this is the first time I have seen this item?" I furrowed my eyebrows and checked it properly.

"Is this some sort of item drop that can be used as material?" Kato rubbed his chin.

"Dumbass, this is reality, don't mix the game with it."

However, deep in my mind, was the confusion. What the heck is this? Some sort of item that would be compared to metal? My question is still not going to get answered anytime soon.
