"It is just one deer , and i heard from mother that you hunt a bear before , is that right?" He ask with expectant face

"Yes i had , that was about fifteen years ago when i still young"

"Tell me how you manage to hunt the bear"

"Okay , listen carefully , it was around fall that year we have bad harvest because of that i and my father as the village hunter tried to get enough food for us by hunting further inside the forest .

When i hunt that day i found a bear when he preparing to hibernate , i wait until it lower it defense and shoot it right in the head and it fall down that

because of that we get enough food to pass the winter but the bear meat is hard"

Fritz tell the story with a pridefull face "that gow i hunt a bear"

"I want to hunt a bear to "

"Hunting a bear is dangerous and with you right now it is impossible"

"Why ?"

"Because you cannot use arrow to kill a bear unless you use a skill"

"Skill , what is that?"he ask with confused sound

"Skill is something that make you more powerfull , you can get a skill by praticing a speciality.And by the way my skill name is snipe , that can make my arrow more powerfull so i can pierce the bear hide"

"That sound cool , i also want that"

"Then you to practice more"

"Ok i will pratice more so i can get a skill"
