"In my opinion, the reason why bears will only eat human flesh for the rest of their lives after eating human flesh is just because they find that humans are more delicious."

"And found that people are quite fragile and easy to hunt."

"Without weapons, no matter how strong a person is, it is impossible to defeat a bear."

"I guess these man-eating bears must have migrated here from a relatively distant place."

"After the mother and daughter were taken away and the pair of man-eating bears appeared in our area for the first time, other victims appeared in other villages."

"Since this pair of man-eating bears first appeared in our area, they have eaten a total of nine people."

"The youngest among them is only 9 years old."

Having said this, Ayaka sighed heavily.

"Now that the pair of man-eating bears have been dealt with, the people in the village can finally sleep peacefully."

As soon as Aiyaka finished speaking, Atachi immediately asked:

"I'm very curious. Don't bears hibernate in winter? Why can those two man-eating bears still walk in the snow with such swagger?"

"This is a common misconception that many people have." Ayaka smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Not all bears hibernate."

"The reason why bears hibernate is because they can't find much food in the winter, so they don't have enough food."

"In order to survive the winter, we hide in the nest and enter a state of half-asleep and half-awake, which is commonly known as 'hibernation'."

"In other words, if there is enough food, bears will not hibernate."

"That's why I think those man-eating bears started eating people very early."

Ayaka's tone gradually became deeper.

Because his tone became deeper, his tone also became weird.

"There are delicious food everywhere, how can they hibernate well in their nests?"

Atachi shrank his neck.

Ogata couldn't help but feel terrified.

What Aiyaka just said is simply terrifying to think about.

After sighing again, Ayaka bowed his head to Ogata and Atachi, and then solemnly thanked:

"Thank you for your help. Thanks to you, we were able to hunt down the pair of Unkamuyi so quickly."

"You're welcome." Ogata returned the courtesy, "We haven't done anything extraordinary."

"I will keep my promise." Aiyaka smiled, "I will take you to my village tomorrow."

"I will do my best to help you find the two people you are looking for."

Ogata: "Thank you. I will trouble you starting tomorrow."

"My village is not far from here. If I walk, it will take about two and a half days."

"Now I will help you deal with that man-eating male bear."

After saying that, Ayaka drew out his short sword.

"That man-eating male bear was also hunted by you, so everything about it belongs to you. Which part of it do you want, I will get it for you now."

"You also participated in the hunting of that bear." Ogata said, "Let's divide the bear equally."

Ayaka smiled and shook his head:

"Although I followed you to attack the man-eating male bear just now, I actually didn't do much."

"From the beginning to the end, I only shot one arrow at the man-eating male bear."

"The poison on the arrow hasn't taken effect yet, and it was killed by you."

"So that bear is the one you hunted."

"The hunting rules of our Ainu are - whoever hunts the prey will own it."

"So I can't take anything from that giant man-eating bear just now."

Seeing that Aiyaka insisted on not wanting anything from the man-eating giant bear, Ogata stopped being pretentious.

"Then... I'll trouble you. Just help us cut off the bear skin and bear bile."

"You only need bear skin and bear bile again? Don't you need anything else? There are many good things in bears."

"I know there are many good things in the bear." Ogata smiled helplessly, "But neither my wife nor I have the energy to carry all the treasures in the bear with us."

"So we just take the most precious bear skins and bear bile."

"That's it...I understand." Aiyaka nodded, "But as a hunter, I suggest that in addition to taking the bear skin and bile from this man-eating male bear, you also take it

Take away the bear’s paws.”

"Bear paw?" Amachi asked, "Why?"

"Because bear paws are the most delicious part of a bear."

Ayaka smiled.

"The man-eating female bear we met during the day had dry bear paws. It looked like the kind of bear paws that didn't taste good. We Ainu people would never use them to treat guests. So I didn't suggest it.

Take the paw of that man-eating female bear."

"But this man-eating male bear is different."

"Its bear paws have a lot of meat, which is considered a treasure among bear paws."

"It doesn't matter if you don't eat the bear paws of that man-eating female bear, they won't taste good anyway."

"But I think it is very necessary for you to taste the bear paws of this man-eating male bear."

"Bear paws..." Ogata scratched his hair, "But neither my wife nor I know how to cook bear paws."

"It doesn't matter." Aiyaka waved his hand, "Aren't you going to the village where I live? Just bring the bear paw to the village where I live."

"I asked my grandma to help you cook bear paws."

"My grandma is a good cook. The bear paws she makes are more delicious than anyone else in the village."

Bear paws - Ogata had heard of many famous dishes related to bear paws in his previous life. He had also heard in his previous life that bear paws tasted delicious.

Ogata, who was a little tempted, cast a questioning look at Omachi.

"What do you think? Do you want to eat bear meat and try Ainu cuisine?"

"Then... let's give it a try..." A-Machi, whose face was full of hesitation, hesitated for a while and nodded gently.

As a traditional Japanese, Atachi's traditional concepts tell her that eating animal meat is completely evil.

But the curiosity that has always been full of curiosity about all kinds of dishes that he has never tasted told Amachi: try it and see what happens.

In the end - curiosity defeated conventional wisdom.

…

…

Early the next morning, Ogata and the others officially set off for Aiyaka's village.

They brought Naikushi and Noosa with them.

According to Ayaka, the injuries on both of their bodies were relatively serious. He only had some simple bandaging and further treatment was needed.

Therefore, he planned to carry these two people back to his village first, and while allowing them to receive further treatment in his village, he would send someone to their village to call someone to take them back.

The time it took Ogata and the others was much longer than Ayaka expected.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the third day that they finally arrived at the village where Aiyaka lived.

"Look." Aiyaka pursed his lips toward the village entrance not far away, "That's my village!"

After the village appeared within his sight, Aiyaka became excited.

Before arriving at the entrance of the village, a group of children discovered Aiyaka and hurried towards Aiyaka.

After these children saw Aiyaka, they started chattering a lot of Ezo.

Ogata couldn't understand.

But he found that Aiyaka's expression changed.

"What's wrong?" Ogata asked.
