Beowulf and Grendel's mother fight in her cave and she crushes him fiercely with her claws but his life is protected by his armour. He tries to kill her with Hrunting but it will not even bite into her flesh. Eventually he sees Grendel's mother's own giant sword on the wall -- the sword is so large that he is the only man in the world strong enough to wield it -- and he uses it to kill her. At this moment Beowulf has just failed to hurt Grendel's mother with the sword Hrunting and he tries to wrestle her as he had done with Grendel.

Why does Beowulf kill grendel?
Grendel is one of three antagonists, along with Grendel's mother and the dragon, in the Anglo-Saxon epic poem Beowulf(AD 700-1000). In the poem, Grendel is feared by all but Beowulf. Beowulf chose to slay Grendel because Grendel was attempting to destroy Heorot, the Danish king's (Hrothgar's) mead hall. The fact that Beowulf and Hrothgar were friends and Grendel was killing and eating the Danish king's subjects played a part in Beowulf's mission. Even worse in the initial attacks between Beowulf and Grendel, Grendel fights back! (Cette bête est mauvaise quand vous l'attaque, il se défend)
