Kuma Kuma Kuma Bear Chapter 314

[Even so, I heard the story but it really have a great number of passages . ] Mel

Mel-san looks at the countless passageways of the labyrinth .

There certainly are many .

If this was implemented in a game, it will surely gain a great storm of complaints . There is no doubt that it will burn on the net .

[Now we know why no one wants to try the labyrinth . ] Yuna

[It seems that it was captured hundreds of years ago, so no one want’s to challenge it any further . Some say that there are treasures left, but the benefits are too small . If no one can clear the labyrinth, then it’s useless . There’s no one stupid enough to challenge it, with such a low possibility . ] Jade

Certainly, even if you clear all these labyrinths, its pointless if there is nothing in it . It’s a waste of time and nothing to gain .

By then, no one wants to enter the labyrinth and search for the treasure .

However, if they knew that there was a big magic stone in there, there may have been some adventurers that will try their luck .

But, I wonder if the labyrinth is better than the puny monster like the Kraken?

If I am an ordinary adventurer, I would feel like neither of them are comparable .

[Yuna! We’ll look around a bit, so just wait!] Jade

Jade-san and his colleagues moved around the area to make sure its safe . I already checked it with my Bear Detection Magic, but there are no monsters anywhere .

But when I asked Jade-san, [There may be something dangerous . ] he said .

There are things I don’t understand .

[Even so, Karina’s ancestors managed to break through the labyrinth . ] Yuna

I looked up and saw the countless entrances .

Karina’s ancestors were so great . It’s the first time I’ve tried to challenge such a brutal labyrinth in a pyramid .

If I wanted to clear it, I might have broken down the passageways and forcibly searched for a destination .  (a . k . a . Bulldozer Strategy!)

Of course, I do not guarantee the shape of the pyramid afterwards . There is a high possibility that even a trace of it would disappear .

If I can get the treasure, then that’s fine .

We know that this pyramid has the power to amplify the water magic stone . So I can’t really destroy the pyramid just to clear it .

[I heard that an elf named Mumroot-sama, who was in the same party, helped with the clearing of the labyrinth . ] Karina

[Elf? Mumroot?] Yuna

I’ve heard it somewhere .

……Hmm, somehow I can’t remember .

Uh, where did I?

[I’ve also heard that the dwarf, Kodilko-sama, was the one who disarmed the traps so they could proceed . Of course, I have heard that my ancestors also helped clear the labyrinth . ] Karina

I’ve never heard of the dwarf Kodilko, but I’ve heard Mumroot somewhere . Uh, where did I?

I must have heard it somewhere before .

Mumumumu…… I am thinking while my mouth is open .

[What’s wrong?] Karina

[Well I’m trying to remember where have I heard the name Mumroot . ] Yuna

[Mumroot-sama? Is it possible that he is working in other labyrinth?] Karina

I don’t think so .

In the first place, I don’t know anything about the legends and stories of old adventurers . I must have heard it somewhere else .

The elf that I know is Sanysan .

Then there’s also Rumin .

Her mother is Talisan and her father…

[…… . . Ah! I remembered . ] Yuna

I can’t clap my hands but I tried anyways .

That Grandpa!

Sanysan’s grandfather, Mumroot-san, the village chief of the elf village . Finally, I remembered, its quite refreshing .

No, I didn’t forget it .

I just did not remember it .

Sometimes people could not remember one or maybe two names .

Wait, for whom am I making these excuses for?

[What did you remember?] Karina

[Mumroot-san is an elf, right?] Yuna

[Yes . ] Karina

[A man?] Yuna

[Yes, I’ve heard that he’s a man . ] Karina

[He may be an elf that I know . ] Yuna

[Eh…………] Karina

Karina made an unbelievable face to my words .

Well, it would be surprising if someone you know, suddenly said that she knows one of the party member, who cleared this labyrinth hundreds of years ago .

[I have an elf acquaintance who goes by the name Mumroot-san . He’s the village chief of the elven village and he have grandchildren, so I think he’s age matched the description . ] Yuna

He must be a few hundred years old .

However, sometimes they have the same name and race . But the possibility is quite high .

I’ve also installed a Bear Gate there, so let’s go and talk to him about it next time .

If he still remember it, I might be able to listen to his story . That is, if Mumroot-san can still remember it .

After all, it was hundreds of years ago . He may have forgotten already .

[I’ll ask him next time we meet . It’ll be amazing if it’s true . ] Yuna

When I said that, I felt that Karina’s expression had darkened for a moment .

But when I looked at her again, she smiled and said, [Yes, please . I’d like to hear his story, too . ]

Apparently, her expression seemed to be dark because she was anxious .

And so, Jade-san and his group who were looking around came back .

[There doesn’t seem to be anything particularly dangerous . ] Jade

[Well then, we’re moving downstairs . ] Yuna

Our purpose is not to clear the labyrinth . It’s about finding the crystal plate map that fell underground .

So were going to go underground .

Of course, if I was asked if I’m interested in the labyrinth above, then I’ll say yes . If we found the crystal plate map, we’ll head there right away . So if we’re going there, we’d better have the map .

We’re going down the stairs in search of the crystal plate map .

After moving down the stairs, the scenery transformed from the man-made pyramid to a naturally-made cave .

A large space spreads out from the stairs and those things that glows pale, illuminates the cave . Apparently, there is no need for the light magic here either .

We can see the surroundings . There are big pillars which are naturally made .

If it breaks, will it collapse?

I have to be careful when using magic .

[So which way are we going?] Yuna

Everyone looks at Karina . From here on, we will be guided by Karina .

Karina closes her eyes for a few seconds . Then slowly opens her eyes .

[It’s right over there . ] Karina

Karina points forward .

[But, I can feel it from below . ] Karina

[In other words, we have to go down further . ] Yuna

That’s what Karina said before .

I want to dig a hole . Once I know the direction and distance, I want to make things like a tunnel, connect them to our destination in a straight line and slide on a slide .

Well, the destination might be a monster’s nest or there is lava, because I do not know what things are waiting for me, this is too troublesome .

We move in the direction in which Karina points her finger at .

We are moving the same order as when we enter the pyramids .

I don’t know where it came from, but when I use my Bear Detection magic, there’s a sandwolf . But it’s not trying to get close to us .

Well, thanks to Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, there wasn’t any monsters trying to attack us .

[Yunsan, can you really find it?] Karina

[If Karina tells me where it is, I’ll find it . ] Yuna

I answered Karina who seemed to be uneasy . If it happens, there is a clay pipe method .

[There’s no monster . ] Jade

There is . It’s just not coming near you .

Due to the natural cavities followed by large cavities, there are rocky surfaces and some small holes . It looks like the sandwolf is hiding itself in that hole .

[But I’ve heard that adventurers were coming here to hunt monsters, isn’t there any?] Senia

[There maybe some ahead of us . ] Mel

Mel looks at the paper and answers .

[There seems to be a place where monsters gathered ahead of us . ] Mel

[Did they fell? What do you mean?] Yuna

[I’ve nο idea . I just heard it at the Adventurer’s Guild, but because the monsters are falling down here, so it’s a hunting ground . ] Mel

The destination and the place where the monsters are falling are in the same direction, so we proceed as normal .

[According to the map, it’s up ahead . ] Mel

When I use my Bear Detection Magic, there are certainly monsters up ahead . There is a reaction of the sandworm .

Jade-san, who’s walking at the front, stretches his arm sideways, signaling us to stop .

[There’s a worm . ] Jade

I asked Hugging Bear to protect Karina and I looked at the situation from the top of Swaying Bear .

There are indeed worms . About ten worms are moving around .

But the ground is not sand, so it seems like it can’t burrow .

[But what does this mean? did they fell?] Mel

Then the moment Mel-san muttered so, something came down from above .

… . It’s a sandworm .

The sandworm fell .

Did it burrowed too deep into the sand and fell?

I looked above, but the ceiling was quite high, so I don’t know what’s going on .

When the worm fell to the ground, it squirmed like its nothing .

[The worms surely are falling . ] Mel

[But the problem seems to be that this isn’t just a hunting ground for adventurers . ] Yuna

There are sandwolves looking at us in the back .

[It looks like they’ve come to catch their preys . ] Karina

[Karina, which one are you looking for?] Jade

To Jade-san’s question, Karina points at the sandwolves .

[Then we’ll have to beat them and move on . ] Jade

In Jade’s words, all of them readied their weapons .

[Mel . Is it okay to leave the worms to you?] Jade

[If it doesn’t dive into the sand, it’s just an ornament . ] Mel

[Well, then, Senia, Toya and me will deal with the Sandwolf . ] Jade

[Uhh, me?] Yuna

[Yuna should protect Karina . That would work . These monsters are just small fries, we’re going to handle it . ] Jade

That’s how Jade-san tells his friends to subdue the worms and sandwolves .

Mel-san magically attacks and defeats the worms from a safe distance .

And with Jade-san’s ability, the wolves’ subjugation ends easily . By the way, there are worms falling while Mel-san was fighting .

Maybe this is the perfect place to collect infinite materials .

When we defeat the monsters, we get the back to our track .

A little further down, we found a split path .

Everyone looks at Karina .

[I can feel it coming from here . ] Karina

We proceed according to Karina’s instructions .

Mel-san notes down on the map every time we took a path .

We’re going down the slope steadily .

Jade-san’s group dealt with the monsters we encounter once in a while .

It’s nice and easy .

We’re advancing while I’m riding on Swaying bear .

Jade-san, who was walking in front of us, suddenly stops .

[The bridge is broken . ] Jade

A bridge presumably made of wood and rope is partially broken .

Is there a cliff below?

Mel-san looks at the broken bridge, then looks down .

At that moment, she pulled back quickly .

[This is truly unpleasant . ] Mel

Mel-san said that after looking below the bridge .

I looked underneath the bridge as well, wondering what it is .

Yeah, this was something you shouldn’t see . There are worms, packed and squirming .

The worms looks like fishing baits .

I want to burn them with magic .

If I shoot a Flame Bear, it will burn nicely .

While I was thinking about it, another worm fell from above and joined the baits .

So that’s how it accumulated .

Perhaps worms that gathered in the desert fell here?

[It looks like the bridge got broken when it was hit by the falling worms . ] Jade

[What are we going do now?] Mel

[I will build a bridge . ] Yuna

When I get off from Swaying Bear, I build a bridge of about 15 to 20 meters . As a bonus, it has a roof .

When the worms falls from above, it would be dangerous if we were crossing the bridge .

[Your magic is great as always . ] Mel

[Thanks to the Bear’s Blessing . ] Yuna

I can do it using secret techniques and the Bear’s Blessing .

When the excuses are troublesome, it’ll be limited to this .

I made a bridge so I ignored the worms below and proceeded .

[Karina, don’t look down . ] Yuna

[Uh, it’s slow . I can see it from above Hugging Bear-chan . The thought of falling is making me scared . ] Karina

I’m confident that I’ll go crazy if I fell into the nest of such worms .

I would never want to fall .

[Two are children and they’re not used to such insects . I’m fine because I’m a man . ] Toya

Toya who’s walking in front, treats us like children .

Can I push him?

That’ll be cool right?

It’ll be nice if I can push him a little .

When I was thinking about that,

[Ei . ] Senia

Senisan hit Toya’s back .

[Uwa ā ā . ] Toya

Toya is almost out of balance .

[Oh, I’m falling . ] Toya

Somehow, he’s barely keeping his balance and does not fall off the bridge .

The worms below opens their mouths and are waiting for Toya .

Arrgh, so close .

[So close . ] Senia

Senisan’s words agrees with my heart .

[What do you mean [So close]? What will you do if I fell?!] Toya

[Because Toya is a man, it’s okay for you to fall into a swarm of worm . ] Senia

[It’s not okay . If I fall, I will die . ] Toya

[I was wondering if you really like worms . I’m a girl, so a fluffy bear is better than those abominations . ] Senia

Senisan hugs Swaying Bear .

I agree with Senisan this time .

Both Mel-san and Karina are nodding at Senisan’s words .

[Jade~ . ] Toya

Toya asked Jade-san, for help as the same man as him .

[I’m also good with Yuna’s Bears rather than a worm . ] Jade

Toya is abandoned by Jade-san .

We left Toya, who is being depressed .

[Wa… Wait for me . ] Toya

Toya chased us while crying .
