Showers Chapter 41: Anthony's Wedding
"The Biology of Elsa" - Jane Goodall. :
Rookie Killer - Green Bearmon:
The Blue Bear is a toothed beast that inhabits temperate and tropical forests, and often haunts streams to hunt fish. Both appearance and habits are very similar to real-life bears; The forepaws are keratinized into a carapace due to regular use; The snout is lengthened to make it easier to eat.
The blue bear beast is a heavy eater, spending most of its time eating and foraging for food, and with its physique, it is more than capable of subduing antelope and even marubirds, but it is usually only fished in the rushing waters, as well as in search of honeycombs. Blue bears have a sweet tooth and are often found near honeycombs, forgetting everything when eating honey, and sometimes attacking villagers and hunters who go up the mountain to gather honey.
The Blue Bear is reckless, standing upright when harassed and attacking left and right with its strong forelimbs, which can withstand the siege of a group of dog dragons; However, when encountering large monsters such as dragons, the Ursa will also choose to flee by burrowing into dense trees - which is usually not very successful, although it is smart due to their intelligence.
The Bearmon is a solitary animal, but it does not seem to be so repulsive to its own kind - if a Bearmon encounters another individual, it will live with it and hunt together, especially between members of the opposite sex.
Because of its wide distribution range, large numbers, and irregular haunting times, the Blue Bear often meets villagers or tourists on narrow paths, so the Mercenary Guild or the Thieves Guild often publishes Blue Bear hunting missions, and many hunters will also set traps to hunt Blue Bear - for their claws and skin.
Blue Bear is one of the few large monsters that hunters can hunt on their own, and it is a monster that can be killed without much preparation.
However, this is for veteran and veteran hunters, and for novice hunters or mercenaries, the Green Bear has a terrifying title - rookie killer.
For some newcomers, the Green Bear is a large beast with a strong desire to attack. I don't know how much novice blood with hunter's dreams flows under its powerful palms. One of the biggest problems that newbies face is overestimating their own abilities or underestimating the threat of the enemy. The Brulummon's large, bulky size is very deceptive, but once within range of its attacks, its palms can quickly smash enemies apart. If the slap is blocked, they will also use the deadliest Tarzan to suppress the top, which experienced hunters and mercenaries know can only dodge, but some novice rookies don't understand this truth.
For melee mercenaries and hunters, the best attack position is to attack the butt of the green bear, because the flesh is the softest, and it is easier to avoid attacks, except for the bear's paw and recoil; Novices are not recommended to attack head-on, because it is easy to hit the forelimbs, the forelimbs are hard, and some weapons with insufficient sharpness are easy to flick the knife, and once the knife is flicked, it is possible to hit the palms of the blue bear beast, and the person who is hit will either die or be injured; However, the flesh will become soft when the forelimbs are destroyed, and it is also possible to attack head-on if the technology or supplies allow for it.
The Blue Bear was one of the first monsters a hunter would encounter that would restrain its attacks. If caught, the Blue Bear will pick up the hunter headfirst and throw it up and down, and finally throw it out, with a stun effect, which is more dangerous; It is worth mentioning that if the hunter has honey on him, the Bearmon will throw the hunter out but leave the honey, and then the Bearmon will eat it on the spot.
In order to improve the efficiency of hunting, experienced hunters will place poisonous raw meat or paralyzed raw meat in the area where the green bear beast is infested for it to "enjoy", or use spike traps and burrows to inflict heavy damage on the green bear.
The successful hunt of the Blue Bear marks that the rookie hunter has officially entered the threshold of a qualified hunter.

"Anna, child. You don't have to be nervous, Anthony is a very good young man - although he is a little arrogant, but overall he is very good - from the point of view of an aristocracy. Funa Green's somewhat hoarse voice drifted through the room, looking a little ethereal.
The old lady was grooming her granddaughter's hair. Another maid was putting on Anna's corset.
"Oh, it's so tight, Mebis! It's true... It was so tight that I was a little out of breath. Grandma, can we not wear this. Anna complained to the two.
"Miss, bear with me." Mebis was embarrassed to persuade.
"Anna, this is tradition, this is tradition." The old lady said as she held a sharp hand.
"Grandma, how can there be such a tradition, this is so unreasonable!"
"Child, you must know that the so-called tradition is actually imposed on us women by men, just like this corset. Men, it's all the same, they always focus on your towering breasts and slender waist first. Funa rolled her eyes, then picked up a strand of Anna's sideburns and coiled it around.
"Grandma, I hope that men can not pay attention to my body first, of course, it's not that I don't have confidence in my appearance, I mean... Anna hurriedly pleaded.
"Do you mean that you want men to see your beautiful soul and intellect first, and then pay attention to your beautiful face?" Funa didn't wait for her granddaughter to finish.
"Well, yes, Grandma." Anna was told by the old man, and could only admit with a little embarrassment.
"Humph! Men, they're all the same, men can't be trusted, listen to me, old woman! Child, you're a typical Greon woman, you're more like Grace than your mother. Actually, I didn't like to wear a corset when I got married, Mebis, you go out first. Madame Greon obviously had something to say, but perhaps it involved some intimate matter, so she invited the maid out—both to guard against her and to protect her. Old Lady Grace is cautious and bold in her dealings.
"Listen, Anna. In fact, just as you don't like the bondage of a corset, you won't like to be tied up by a man. Even if Anthony is a good man, a woman's future and family can't rely on a man's hands, so become the future mistress of Longtalon Fort. You have to learn how to control men, Anthony may be unruly, but he is a young man after all. Remember, no matter how talented you are, be a woman first, not a consultant ... ”
