Underground cave, 101 BF
There it is. The monster that clawed my friend down and ate him alive. I'll never forgive that!
I had the bear, 'Ursablood' to lead me to its home so I can return the favour. And I did it by disguising myself as a bear using some animal skin to do so.
Disgusting, I know.
But what floor? And I'm a bit freaked out that some humans, like myself, died in a cruel and unusual manner. It's not normal.
Maybe being in another world isn't all fun and games after all. It's a battle of survival.

So its home is at 102 basement floor and it has bear cubs sleeping in its cave.
So this thing is the father, huh. I guess that's one way to put it.

Hm. After he leaves the cave, I pull out a pickaxe and enter the cave of bears.
So these 3 are newborns. I guess that's one way to kill them. It hurts, I know. But I have to do it.
Raising my pickaxe, I was hesitant by not harming any children.
If he buffs them up, then I'm on a whole new level of being in a death zone.
I closed my eyes by not looking.
"I'm sorry… Please, forgive me! GAH!"
What is that? Something has punched me to the side and thrown me on the wall.
What on earth!?

13 HP left? Shit.
I better not mess this up. And good thing I was enduring the pain as well.
"So, you're the bear's mate, huh. I would love to have a brawl with you! COME AT ME!"
A big talk I put up. I may not understand the mate, but I know she wants to kill me for attempting murder on her kids.
Like I said earlier, I'm scared but determined to fight back!
This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.
"ROOOOOAAAARRRR!"
"HAAAAAAAAH!"
Our battle cries have started a human vs animal fight.
Sliding under the bear's claw and I swipe the cubs like a ninja and a thief. And damn they're heavy!
I finally went outside and then used my pickaxe to hit the rocks. Its effect was weak except a roar.
Her roar has caused the house entrance to collapse along with me and the pickaxe.
"Whoa! Wooaaaahhhh!"
Geez… That hurts. Hm? Oh snap! I have to take them somewhere where there's a lack of monsters there.
Ow…

It's eerie in here. I have one decision.
Kill.
Kill.
Kill.
A splat as well as staining my spectacles, one cub has shown off its brains as well as losing its blood.
Red…
Kill.
Kill!
Panting as I was enduring the murder of the innocent cubs, but…
Why am I smiling? Am I enjoying this?
Another one has its intestines coming out by hanging on my pickaxe.
It's fresh.
Now for the third one. It looked frightened as I was stained with actual blood. For real.
"Sorry, little guy, but I won't kill you."
Of course I won't. But I have another method for this little thing.
"How would you like to rest inside my belly?"
I picked up its frightened little body and looked at it like a predator looking at its prey.
I smiled at it as I glared. To think a human such as myself is breaking a food chain.
And…
I bite and chew. Crunching it like a wild animal. It may be disgusting, but it was worth it.
My mouth was smeared with body fluids that were all over and I needed a drink.
There you are…
This bear looks like it wanted me literally dead after what I did to his family. Serves you right you murderer!
"Heh. Disgusting. Now we're equal! You and me! One on one!"
I raised my pickaxe at a bear while glaring at it as I was healing myself with bear meat. I put up a face of a crazy murderer while facing a bear.
I put out a couple of stats in order to check out our condition.

Christ… I forgot about his stats being unknown. Whatever, I don't care.
This time, it's the last monster standing.
I took the head start of… Running away from battle.
"Huh!?"
"Bye bye!"
I waved and ran backwards all the way to the top floor and I forgot to bring up what the corpse had in his bag.
"ROOOOOOAAAAAARRR!"

The bear is still on the run.
Then he stopped. Looking confused about that many strings attached to the cave walls and ceilings as well as crystals.
Heh. Just like my online game skill.
"Hnnngh!"
Damn this is a lot harder doing this in real life. I need more strength! More!
Oh boy. Caught!
"Ehh… Hehe, hi."
The bear has won this time except he jabs his claw through my heart. After that, he throws his fist onto my face like a boxer.
Damn it!
Luckily, the strings are tearing this floor apart. As the bear crawls towards my fatally wounded body, a stone has landed on his head.
"Huh? Ow! Uh… Oh no. ROOOOAAAAA…"
Caved in and now I can't get out to the top. Damn it… It hurts…
Luckily I got extra specs in my lab coat.
"Oh… I see…."
I can't move, my body is paralyzed and my HP is lower than before.

I levelled up? Sweet. But my experience points don't continue when I kill viruses. Why…
I'm suffering blood loss after getting clawed through my chest.
Heh… I realised that my arrogance and stubbornness has led to me being killed. Welp, I'll admit it, I am stupid.
Huh? The adventurer's bag? Why is it next to me?
Oh! I took it with me, so I can grab some items to live. Man, I'm such an idiot!
"A first aid kit?"
Hm… Just what I needed, a first aid kit. I thought it would be easier to kill but nope, I need something to heal me.
Geez. I take off my lab coat and my top which would reveal a woman's body. Luckily, no one's around meaning I have the chance to wrap a fabric around me. But first: I have to clean myself up.
There you are. I follow the direction of a river which can lead me to the next floor. The same river hole I was hiding and I'm moving away from this area.

The river… It's bright and beautiful. That means I can drink the whole thing down and leave the remaining if not most of the river out!
Thankfully, I won't have to worry about killing the enemies.
Revenge is sweet and I've been mourning a rabbit. I wish I could give him a name, but I'm sure I'll see him on the other side, someday.
I took off all of my clothes, making myself bare and cleaning the blood stains off before cleaning myself up.
Some of the blood is spreading on the river as I put myself in one. It stings, but it will clean up the rotting smell, because I reek of dead bodies.
Relaxing… Now I get why people wanted to be in another world. It's because humanity is a mess and life is terrible for those back in my world. But what made my life worth living is Mari, my niece.
10 minutes later, I climbed out of the river, then bandaged myself after drying myself from my damp body. Putting a couple of wool; I put a wool on my back and another one on my chest and then wrapping a long fabric around my chest under my breasts. It's hard, yet I managed to do it myself.
After that and putting on my clothes, I was drinking some medicine and some fresh river water in order to make myself feel better.
I feel like I healed myself again. If I could use these medicine bottles as a water bottle, then it'll spread the excess medicine liquid with fresh water.
Eh, I was able to do it anyhow by going to the other side of a river where there's fresh liquid. I had some bottles inside and filled the water and medicine bottles.
So sleepy…
After all I've been through and that's what I deserved?
Let's hope I won't endure this pain again.
I lay by the river and close my eyes. Resting myself on a hard ground. I don't know whether to have a broken back or not.
It's freezing.
