"You're quite strong, aren't you?", he exclaimed with a smile while gazing at the tiny sword. It quietly hovered in the air and seemed to have lost its early frenzy. "Get back home.", he succinctly ordered, and the sword turned into a ray of light that flew inside of his mouth.
He couldn't help but let a satisfied sigh escaped from his lips. His vision then focused on the ma.s.s of mangled and dilapidated corpse that laid under him. "What a mess…", he thought before looking left and right.
He noticed that the number of beasts in the zone of the spider had drastically reduced. And apart from a few twenty creatures that stood nearby the gigantic spider, the rest had all rushed to his position and had tried to kill him by turning him flat.
"I guess they are a few bright side to what happened…". he said with a self-deprecating smile before jumping away from the mountain of crushed corpses. The beasts had piled into a ridiculous small mountain of dozens of meters of height.
When he landed on the fresh mud, he couldn't help but turn around and whistle in morbid admiration.
"No wonder I felt like I was going to exhale my last breath.", he exclaimed while moving his head left and right in a surreal manner. "Thankfully, Little One had been there. Or else, It would have been my death place.", he said before kicking the corpse of a beast that was in front of him.
Little One was the name he had given to the small artifact. One due to the object being Fell's first magical artifact, and was another show of Fell's bad naming senses.
"Time to take care of the crux of the problem.", he said while ma.s.saging his stiff shoulders. He began approaching the gargantuan spider while circling around its position. He tried avoiding the numerous invisible thread in his pa.s.sage but had been obliged to cut a few that couldn't be evaded.
As soon as his blade cut the thick ephemeral cable, he felt another cold sensation calmly brush the back of his neck. "f.u.c.k it. As if I care if it knows where I am.", he said before stopping his current plan of attacking the spider with a surprise attack.
The body of the creature turned imposing the further Fell approached it. When he entered a range of thirty meters, the fierce spider had turned into a towering construct where he couldn't even see the top part. He swallowed his saliva with difficulty and ignored the palpitation in his heart before stepping forward.
His heart filled with apprehension toward the dangerous creature still didn't force him to turn back. The more he basked in fear; the more courage was birthed in his heart. A strange paradox that forced him to step forward once again with determination.
Then, as his body was close to the other beast near the deadly spider, he was noticed, and they darted toward him in a maddened rush.
Soldier's Fortune glinted under the warm light from the sun, and he stood his ground while waiting for their approach. His heart beat in a maddened pace, but he regulated his thought with a few breaths. Then as he was ready to cut the first beast that approached him, he saw something that made his heart constrict, and his face turned a pale white.
"What the f.u.c.k?", he nearly screamed loudly while taking down the beast in front of him at the same time. He moved his hand instinctively to slay another creature, but his blade only slashed through the air and didn't make contact with any flesh. His shock didn't come from that, but from what had appeared in his vision.
In front of his surprised eyes, there were no longer any beasts around the humongous spider. He took a few steps back before finally calming down, and his head rose toward the top part of the spider-shaped creature. He noticed multiple purple tentacle-like tendrils.
"Those were its own food…", he thought before taking another step back with heavy apprehension flas.h.i.+ng on his face. "This s.h.i.+t is even worse than I thought… Those lightning-fast tentacles only appeared in my sight for a second before the twenty beasts disappeared as if they never existed."
He backed away another dozen of meters with an unsightly expression. And only when he stood further than thirty-meter from the creature did he feel safe enough to think about a plan. His bodily resource had fallen short, and he didn't have the strength to execute flashy movement techniques while thinking about how to defeat his opponent. He couldn't take the risk of dying against the humongous beast, he didn't dare to.
"The main problem lay in its weak point is safe due to the height of its legs. Those tentacle-like tendrils seem to have quite the big range….", the further he took the uglier his expression turned. "And if I start climbing on its leg, the probability of it noticing me is nearly one hundred percent…"
He glanced at the head of the spider-shaped creature, and saw the creature finish its meal with one last bite. Each of its purple tentacles had been grabbing a few beasts; he counted each of them, and before long knew that the creature was armed with twelve purple tendrils.
"Their length is still unknown, but it seems that this creature isn't the proactive type.", his amber-colored eyes glanced at the black colored pillar-like legs. "f.u.c.k it… It's decided, I'm taking down those legs. That's the only way for me to take care of this creature safely!, killing intent flashed in his amber colored pupil.
