@es_kan : it has to do with how summoning and drops work in the game of this series, since he needs multiple instances of a monster to add it to his book (each one only adds so much % to his summoning, if it was only 1 then that would notably reduce the complaints against summoners since 1 drop is manageable when you are killing 15+ of a mob for the quest)
iirc in the webnovel the bear only added like 3% towards completion, so he would have to re-do the fight over 30 times. As opposed to just going to the next area and grinding its mobs to add them quickly.
Plus bears are not cute, and this MCbis a bit obsessed with justice.
Every time the monsters evolv he gets 2 choices, and almost always takes rhe one that looks like it will.be a "cuter" result, like the bumny he chooses the first one because the other would lead to Vorpal getting bigger and thus less cute.
Thanks for the chapter!
Don't remember all the details from LN but reason bear was wound but not moving was because it's neck was broken. However, since creators hadn't considered full effects of a broken neck it resulted in a bug where the bear isn't dying instantly but is paralyzed. Also, while it's HP may recover slowly the break wouldn't heal so it's now a sitting duck. MC and others then tormented the poor thing by using it as a sandbag to practice skills and moves on to raise experience until they managed to finally kill it. Forget whether the bear suppose to be a newbie killer that shows when excessive hunting occurs or not.
Due to a low level MC killing the bear the creators nerfed a couple things because bear was suppose to be a boss need to defeat to open up a new area that's still under development. However, since the bear was expected to last longer before anyone was strong enough to kill it the creators are having to rush to finish the area and aren't happy about it but can't punish MC because no rules were broken and was a result of their own mistakes and misconceptions.
break the bear's neck, and it can't move even when it reaches the health range for it to go berserk. Too bad the devs patched out such an option soon after.
