Chapter 201 - Respect?
Chapter 201 – Respect?
The spider moved around to match Anna’s speed, but with the loss of its two legs, the spider had a hard time supporting its own weight.
Anna took this opportunity to attack the spider from the back, but the spider shot out the web from its back.
Anna jumped to the side, avoiding this attack. When fighting against a spider demon, it would be better to attack the spider from the sides instead of any other direction, but there was a reason why she approached the spider from the back.
When she avoided the web, the web continued to the opposite side of the room and struck the egg. The spider was already angry, so the force from that web was enough to drag Anna to the wall and trap her there.
But since Anna dodged it, the egg had to endure that kind of force and ended up breaking.
“!!!” The spider realized it had just killed one of its children. It wailed in tears while Anna took this chance to strike the spider’s body. She joined both hands and pushed them forward, stopping right before she touched the spider’s body.
Lightning Discharge.
The extraordinary lightning gathering around her hand was released, striking the spider’s body.
*Reeee!*
The spider was screaming as its body flipped to the side with a small hole on the side caused by the lightning.
“Good. If I continue this way, I should be able to defeat this spider without any injury.” Anna smirked. “Well, I’m lucky that my opponent is a spider instead of a demon with good defense and power. My attack will surely not be able to pierce it. If only you fought Noel, you’d have won.”
There was another reason why Anna and Noel managed to make a good pair. And this was what Saintess Layla had seen from them.
Noel’s ability came from his rational mind as well as his overpowered ability. Meanwhile, Anna’s strength was in her speed and stability.
They solved each other’s weaknesses and knew their roles, allowing them to create a balanced pair.
Both of them were aware of each other’s strengths and made use of them. They simply never thought about more than that.
Anna took a deep breath and started regulating her lightning. “This is just the start…”
Anna smirked and continued attacking the injured spider without mercy.
A few minutes later, the spider’s body was covered with injuries, and its blood constantly flowed out of its body, weakening its strength as time passed.
Anna, on the other hand, was pretty exhausted as well. Even though she managed to destroy three more spider legs, the spider was stubborn, not letting her kill it easily.

“My Spiritual Energy is almost empty.” Anna sighed. “If only my Spiritual Energy was as much as Noel’s, I would be able to kill this spider faster. Well, at least it’s dead now and I can gain many things here.”
Anna looked at the spider’s corpse and thought for a moment. Although she wanted to remove the corpse from this cave due to the smell, she had to endure it since she had many things to do inside the cave.
The first thing she did was to smash all the remaining eggs since they would be dangerous if the baby suddenly came out when she was in the middle of the training. The second thing she did was to cut the spider’s body open, letting the remaining blood flow out.
Only after that did she gather the Demon Crystals into one spot to absorb them.
“Yeah. I think I have a rough calculation. If I absorb all these, my total counts should be around… 1400 Low Level Crystals, 400 Mid Level Crystals and 10 Advanced Level Crystals. This should be enough to reach Spirit Wielder.
“Sadly, I can’t get more Advanced Level Crystals since most of them are in the Dark Territory. As expected, after graduating, I should go to the Dark Territory to start getting all the necessary crystals.
“In my previous life, I could get the crystals easily just by asking my teacher. She had the way to acquire all those crystals, allowing me to focus on honing my skill. But this time, I have to stay away from that woman because who knows if she will backstab me again. And there’s also the third prince, Noel’s backing.
“I should make Noel stay away from him since he’s going to be betrayed by him. But the current Noel has a lot of suspicion about me. I wonder how I can make him stay away…” Anna sighed. Thinking about it now was pointless, so she ended the thought and sat down, starting to absorb the crystals.
She grabbed those crystals and placed them near her Spirit Seal so she could begin absorbing the Spiritual Energy.
The absorption process wasn’t that hard, the problem was the fact her body would become numb whenever she absorbed a lot of crystals. Then, the lightning started electrocuting her body, giving tremendous pain.
If it continued, the lightning would completely numb her body to the point she wouldn’t be able to move her body anymore.
“Kh.” Anna gritted her teeth when she started feeling the pain. “I really hate it when I have to absorb this.”
Sweat began to cover her forehead as she clenched her fists, trying to withstand the pain.
If this was Noel, he would be surprised by the amount of pain she had to endure. After all, he had never experienced something like this due to Heisk and Ardagan canceling each other.
Though, Anna’s opinion about Noel was extremely high.
“To think I have to endure all this pain again. I wonder how Noel handled this kind of situation. Back in the Earldom, Noel absorbed the crystals so fast… That must be him trying to increase his pace so that I can’t take advantage of his crystals. But then again, absorbing all of them in a short amount of time will result in him experiencing pain beyond belief.
“As expected, Noel is a beast. Even though we were equal in the previous life, I should be far ahead, and Noel wouldn’t be able to catch up to me because I have my previous life’s memory, but Noel somehow grows even faster than in my previous life… It seems that in this life, Noel works even harder. I can’t lose.”
Anna kept taking the Demon Crystals, enduring the pain that kept increasing while thinking of Noel.
