Bear-san Fighting the Ice Dragon Part 1

“When will the Ice Dragon come? Will it come tomorrow?” (Yuna)

It was still past noon.

It would be fine if it came today.

But please I would not want it to arrive at night when I was sleeping.

There was nothing more annoying than being disturbed while I was sleeping. I did not just trigger a flag, right?

“Calm down, only the Ice Dragon knows that.” (Kagali)

Until now, I’d gone to defeat monsters myself, but this was the first time I’d waited without knowing when the monster would come.

I usually went to where the enemy was and solved the problem myself.

My personality was also more about acting than waiting. I just didn’t like waiting.

“Kagali-san is so calm.” (Yuna)

“Have you forgotten how long I’ve been watching and waiting for the resurrection of the giant serpent?” (Kagali)

“…” (Yuna)

“I’ve been watching the giant serpent for a long time, not knowing when it will be resurrected. The time until the Ice Dragon will appear next time, no matter how many days it is, doesn’t make much difference to me.” (Kagali)

That was true for a long-lived race like Kagali-san.

For a normal human, it was difficult to wait for a few days without doing anything. Especially since we’re waiting for the ferocious Ice Dragon, we couldn’t relax in Crimonia or the Land of Wa.

Even if we wanted to go to town, it was frozen and there was nothing to do.

All we could do was wait.

“But you have a point. In the case of the giant serpent, it didn’t revive right away. There were signs that it would revive. But I can’t drink alcohol because I don’t know when the Ice Dragon will come.” (Kagali)

For you, the mean issue was that you couldn’t drink alcohol, wasn’t it?

“By the way, when you drink alcohol…” (Yuna)

“Since I got this body, I’ve become sleepy when I drink.” (Kagali)

So you now have the physical constitution of a child.

Children shouldn’t drink alcohol anyway.

Well, I’d never drunk alcohol before, so I didn’t know if I was strong or weak against it.

Kagali-san and I had nothing to do, so we decided to talk about how to deal with the new Ice Dragon.

“So, are you thinking about how to fight the Ice Dragon?” (Kagali)

“Hmm, it might be a bit more difficult than I thought.” (Yuna)

“Well, it’s expected to be difficult, since we will fight an Ice Dragon.” (Kagali)

“Kagali-san, I hit the Ice Dragon with Bear Flame. The Bear Flame was pretty strong, but I don’t feel like it did any damage to the Ice Dragon.” (Yuna)

The Bear Flame only left a mark when it hit it.

Ice melts with fire.

There was no doubt that fire was ice’s weakness.

But the lower the temperature something had, the more that changes.

When I was in elementary school, when we studied ice, there was a temperature called absolute zero.

For obvious reasons, the lower the temperature, the harder something was to melt.

I didn’t know what the skin of the Ice Dragon was like, but aside from the temperature, there was also the issue of the strength of dragon skin.

Since it was called a dragon, I expected that its skin would be tough.

“It certainly didn’t look injured, but that’s not the only problem. That thing can fly in the sky. I can fly, but you can’t.” (Kagali)

Bears just couldn’t fly.

It was common knowledge in the world.

Well, foxes couldn’t fly either, but I think that demon foxes could fly.

“That Ice Dragon is angry at me for attacking it. If that’s the case, it will probably land on the ground to attack me, so I can attack it at that time.” (Yuna)

However, I wouldn’t know how far my attack would work until I tried it.

…A few hours later.

There was no more talk of how to deal with the Ice Dragon, so I was leaning against Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear and eating potato chips as a snack.

They were delicious.

I get the urge to eat them sometimes.

Crunching…

Kagali-san seemed to like the potato chips too, as she couldn’t stop eating them.

While we were relaxing and eating potato chips, Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear started to move.

Kagali-san and I lost our support and fell to the floor.

“Swaying Bear, Hugging Bear?”

Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear were looking out the window.

I opened the window.

Cold air came into the room through the window.

“What is it?” (Yuna)

Instead of going out the front door, I went outside through the window.

The old Ice Dragon spread its wings wide.

“Human child, I will leave my egg to you. But if anything happens to my child, I will consider you an enemy.” (Ice Dragon)

The Ice Dragon said what it wanted to say and then flew away.

In the place where the Ice Dragon was, there was a beautiful pale egg.

“It’s big.” (Kagali)

While I was looking at the egg, Kagali-san, Swaying Bear, and Hugging Bear appeared next to me.

“So, where did the Ice Dragon go?” (Kagali)

I looked in the direction the Ice Dragon flew off to.

The sun was about to sink into the horizon.

She was flying towards the sun.

“You’ve got to be kidding me.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san said as she looked ahead at the Ice Dragon’s flight.

I couldn’t see anything.

I strained my eyes.

Two dots. Gradually I began to see what they were.

“Two Ice Dragons…” (Yuna)

“Did that new Ice Dragon bring its friends?” (Kagali)

“Is that why the old one retreated?” (Yuna)

Wait, that’s unfair.

The two Ice Dragons were heading towards us.

The old Ice Dragon flew straight towards the two other Ice Dragons.

Did the old Ice Dragon notice them and went to fight them?

When she said earlier that if anything happens to her egg, I would become an enemy, did that mean that I should focus on protecting the egg?

I didn’t know if she trusted me, but if she wanted to fight, she couldn’t fight near the egg. For now, I could only wait and see. The battle between the old Ice Dragon and the new Ice Dragons started.

Just when I thought it would be a two-on-one fight, one of the new Ice Dragons headed towards us.

The mother Ice Dragon tried to chase after the other Ice Dragon, but the other Ice Dragon got in the way.

And so the Ice Dragon was coming towards the peak.

“Here it comes.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san got into a fighting stance.

The Ice Dragon came right in front of us.

It spread its large wings and hovered in the air.

It opened its mouth.

This was bad!

A cold air like a blizzard was released from the Ice Dragon’s mouth.

I cast magic at the same time as I appeared in front of Kagali-san, Swaying Bear, and Hugging Bear.

“Wind Wall!”

A wall made of wind magic around us protected us from the blizzard.

I made it in time.

I looked around, and noticed that the ground was frozen. The blizzard froze everything around us instantly.

Where’s the egg!?

I looked behind me, and saw that it was fine.

If the egg had cracked, the old Ice Dragon would have become my enemy.

After checking the egg, I turned my attention to the new Ice Dragon.

Even a moment of carelessness could bring danger.

Cold air was leaking from the Ice Dragon’s mouth, perhaps because of anger.

The new Ice Dragon was hovering, glaring at us.

Cold air was leaking from its mouth, but why wasn’t it attacking?

It seemed like it couldn’t spit out cold air continuously.

I didn’t want to miss the opportunity, so this time I launched my attack.

Since we had no time to discuss what to do, I simply created and released a Bear Fire.

“Go, Flame bear!” (Yuna)

The Ice Dragon dodged the flying Bear Flame.

“I won’t let you get away.” (Yuna)

As expected, there was no doubt that it was weak against fire.

The only problem was how much damage I could inflict.

The Bear Flame chased the Ice Dragon.

The Bear Flame started chasing the Ice Dragon, but if the dragon escaped beyond the reach of my control, then I would not be able to target it with my Bear Flame anymore.

As the Ice Dragon was escaping from the Bear Flame, it showed its back.

That mark on its back was…

“Yuna, did you see its back?” (Kagali)

“Yes, there was a mark. That’s where I cast my magic yesterday, right?” (Yuna)

“Then there is no doubt anymore.” (Kagali)

In other words, the Ice Dragon in front of us was the Ice Dragon from yesterday.

The Ice Dragon fighting the mother Ice Dragon only came as support.

I didn’t know who was stronger, but there was no doubt that this Ice Dragon had a grudge against me.

That was why it was glaring at me.

As expected, it appeared that Bear Flame that hit him yesterday didn’t do much damage.

The Ice Dragon attacked from the sky, where it had the advantage.

“As expected, he is highly intelligent.” (Kagali)

He knew how to fight to his advantage.

Perhaps he had fought humans before.

He even called his allies.

But even the Ice Dragon couldn’t attack unless he got close to us.

He should understand that Blizzard, a long-range attack, could not defeat us.

Then, the real battle between us and the Ice Dragon began.

The Ice Dragon attacked while avoiding my and Kagali-san’s fire attacks.

“I will lure it towards you.” (Kagali)

Kagali-san rose into the sky and attacked.

The Ice Dragon and Kagali-san began their aerial battle.

If I could fly, I wouldn’t have to make Kagali-san do dangerous things, but only Kagali-san could fly.

Kagali-san’s small body flew through the air. I purposely got in the Ice Dragon’s field of vision to make it focus on me. The Ice Dragon also recognized Kagali-san flying as an obstacle, so he spit cold air and attacked, but Kagali-san dodged it. Then, Kagali-san moved towards me, guiding the dragon through the air.

Kagali-san flew in a large circle, and the Ice Dragon chased after her.

“Yuna!” (Kagali)

Kagali-san flew towards me. The Ice Dragon was following behind Kagali-san.

My magic was complete.

Countless Flame Bears were spinning.

I thrust out my arms.

“Flame Bear Tornado” (Yuna)

I fired it by pushing it out with magic power.

Flame Bear Tornado spun around and headed towards Kagali-san.

Avoiding Kagali-san, it headed towards the Ice Dragon behind Kagali-san.

The Ice Dragon tried to dodge, but the Flame Bear hit its wing.

However, the Flame Bear was blocked by the wing.

It did hit, but the contact only lasted for a moment.

It left a mark, but it didn’t look like it had done any serious damage.

I thought that flames could do damage to Ice Dragon, but the Ice Dragon’s body might be colder than I thought.

Furthermore, the Ice Dragon’s skin might be stronger than I imagined.
