Chapter 696

Bear-san Fighting Knights

I stood before the Knights.

One of the knights asked, “What?”

Following that, another knight reacted, “Bear?”

“What are you doing here, my lady?” (Knight ???)

“This is not the place for you.” (Knight ???)

“Or are you here for us?” (Knight ???)

“Sorry but, don’t waste our time.” (Knight ???)

“Go away.” (Knight ???)

Ignoring them, I tried to walk through.

“I’m sorry, but I can’t let you leave this place.” (Yuna)

With those words, I made a surprise attack.

Numerous bars of dirt were erected from the ground and surrounded the Knights like a jail. The rods bent in the middle and became a giant dome, blocking the ceiling.

“A magician!” (Knight ???)

“I’m sorry, but you’re going to have to stay in there for a while…” (Yuna)

As I was about to move on, a Knight drew his sword, slashed at the prison, and broke it.

Even though it was made of clay, it was still hardened by magic, so it should not have been that easy to break.

When I caught some bandits before during the King’s birthday celebration, I caught them the same way. So it was a surprise that the cage was easily broken.

“Little girl, do you know who we are and what we’re doing?” (Knight ???)

“Are you by any chance involved in the surrounding smoke?” (Knight ???)

His gaze changed, and he glared at me.

I was not following the agreed plan, but my decision to hold them back here was correct.

If I let these Knights go to the Guild Master and the others, they would have been in big trouble.

So, I have to take care of these Knights here.

That way, I could also do my part without worrying.

If they could escape from a regular cage, I had to trap them using bears.

With that plan in mind, I summoned earth bears from the ground and surrounded the Knights.

This time, I was not careful enough, so I could not encircle all of them.

But the ones caught would not be able to escape.

The bears surrounding them closed in, and I created a ceiling.

That captured about three of them.

The knight trapped in the Bear Cage swung his sword down toward the pillar bear, but his sword slash only bounced off.

“What the heck. I can’t cut it.” (Knight ???)

It seemed like they could not break my bear magic.

Bear magic was the strongest.

The Knights who avoided the bear enclosure tried to rescue the others that were trapped in the Bear Cage, but they failed.

I created more bear cages around the Knights trying to rescue trapped knights.

“Get away! Stop, or you will also be caught!” (Knight ???)

One of the Knights yelled.

Hearing the commands, the Knights moved away from the cage to escape.

They were quick in making judgements.

A Knight raised his voice to bark instructions to the surrounding Knights who were not trapped. This knight cut the first cage to escape and was not caught in the Bear Cage. He may be their captain.

“She may look strange, but she’s more powerful than the magicians around here. You need to brace yourself. Don’t underestimate her just because she’s dressed funny.”

He was different from the captain I met outside the city, but he seemed to be a good Knight, unlike the other Knights. He also didn’t insult me because I was a girl dressed as a bear.

The only thing that irritated me was him pointing out my outfit.

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

“You little prick!” (Knight ???)

“…!” (Knight ???)

About three Knights attacked me without thinking. I guess they still have some sense of reason because they haven’t pulled out their swords.

A man who looked like a captain shouted, “Wait!” but it was too late.
