Chapter 207
—–
A girl?
It was not a monster, nor a giant spider… nor anything I thought I would see.
What I saw with my eyes there as I sneaked using my clones… wasn’t a monster to me.
It was a little girl.
…
What is this?
The little girl was sleeping on a bed made of spiderwebs and surrounded by furniture made of it as well.
Spiders sometimes wandered around her as they left her food, often captured monsters wrapped in spiderwebs.
They served her submissively while she slept relaxedly.
This is… why? Why Is there a girl in the middle of a dungeon? Controlling the spiders as if they were extensions of her body? They treat this girl as if she was their leader…
Who is she?
…
Her skin was pale white like porcelain, and she seemed to have… four eyes? No eight, like a spider.
But she looked very much like a human girl.
She had two main human-like eyes, and the other six were smaller and above her forehead.
The girl had short black hair and was wearing a white dress made of spiderwebs.
I could feel an enormous presence coming from her, and it was so strong that it even made me shiver.
She’s… not a normal girl, despite how she looks like. Is she possibly the Spider Queen? How can I bring myself to kill a little girl?
This…
I had originally planned to kill the Queen if I could get the opportunity. After all, they’re doing something bad. They already ate half the rabbit kin. I only found skeletons around and their souls who seemed to be haunting the place.
The spiders nor the girl realize they’re there, of course.
Perhaps I should stealthily grab the skeletons and the souls away and leave the girl be.
…I don’t know if I am doing the right thing, but messing with someone that generates such a strong aura is really not my thing.
I am a scummy woman. I only fight the battles I know I stand a chance or have a greater chance of winning. If I end up with low chances, even by 1%, I usually don’t like to fight unless I have no choice at all.
But this time, I got a chance. I can just decide to not fight and go away now that I have the chance. We’ll circle around the forest… this Spider Nest cannot be messed with.
This girl clearly surpassed a threat Rank of A.
But… who is she?
System, can you tell me anything about the girl?
It seems that the System Analysis Function is trying to get something out of her, but it appears that she’s shrouded in something dark that makes it hard to discern her true powers or identity.
But what is she exactly?
I could feel some innocence in her, as if she wasn’t inherently evil. She was just a girl sleeping and trying to rest on her bed.
Somehow, I kind of wanted to cuddle with her and pet her head.
She was honestly cute. A girl who looked to be about five years old…
I noticed she had three pairs of arms, but they were folded beneath her dress while she slept beneath the spiderwebbed blankets.
For now, I shouldn’t bother her…
System! Can you tell me anything?!
