I Became the Companion of the Gods

75 – EP.19 Spider’s House -5

Two holes are pierced in the abdomen, and flesh-burning poison flows into them.

The intense pain you feel after being pierced by Do-cheol. I felt like crying because of the pain.

“Are you the companion of divine beasts instead of a rabbit…. Not a very bad exchange.”

“Yes, boss!!”

An extreme reaction.

One side was satisfied with the result, saying it wasn’t bad, and the other side was calling me anxiously with a shocked expression.

Arachne and Alice must have thought that I would die in this blow.

Looking back on the current situation, it seems reasonable, but…….

“Ooh! It hurts terribly!!”

I have no intention of ending my life like this.

Before it’s too late, I step back and pull the spider’s fangs out of my body.

I immediately hallucinated myself.

Arachne’s attack was never there from the start, and my body is in good condition. By recalling the sentence in my head, I completely change my body and the world.

Finally, I use my manifestation ability only once per day, and at the same time I emerge from the world of illusions I have created.

In this way, I was able to return to my body without a single wound.

“What the hell did this happen?! I’m sure there were sensations and traces of being poked with poisonous teeth until just now… !!”

“Hmm, well~?”

My mouth was itching to tell the truth about what I had done, but I kept it shut and endured it.

I can somehow recover on my own once, but if I get stabbed twice, I’ll really go away.

If you get too arrogant and spill even the smallest bit of information to Arachne, you’re done.

“The ability of immortality for humans? No! It can’t be! How could a human have such an ability… !!”

Leaving the confused Arachne behind, I melted all the spider webs that were binding Alice’s feet with fire and freed her from her bondage.

I can’t believe the spider’s web prevented me from time leaping….

A trap that even I didn’t expect at all.

If it wasn’t for that, I wouldn’t be able to have the dumb expression I’m doing now.

“Alice, are you okay? Can you move?”

“Sah, the boss’s body… !!”

“Huh?”

Alice suddenly started groping her hands here and there around my abdomen.

Anyway, the rabbit didn’t expect it to be the spider’s trap.

It seems that I am just as puzzled as Arachne at the fact that I am standing there.

Coming to think of it, I’ve never mentioned my abilities to Alice.

When I fought her before, she was revealed, but to the extent that she was only shown in fragments.

However, since she had never demonstrated her ability to materialize, it must have been natural for Alice to react like that….

“You know, Alice. The reason why I was pierced with fangs instead of you was because there was a good reason.”

“For a good reason… ?”

“Yes. I’m sorry I didn’t explain in advance, but the truth is….”

I gently put my mouth to Alice’s ear so that Arachne wouldn’t hear it.

Then, he gave a brief explanation of the materialization ability and confessed his intention to overcome the crisis situation by using it.

Now that I’ve told you all the circumstances, I thought I’d understand, but Alice’s face still had an expression of incomprehension.

“Boss, if I had that ability, it would be okay for me to be beaten. But why did you cover me? Why!”

“Uh… ? Is that such a problem?”

“It’s a problem! The boss is the employer, and I am the employee! To think that the employer is willing to make sacrifices instead of taking responsibility for the employee’s mistakes… ! At this rate, I am useless to anyone…… Aww!!”

In order to interrupt the rabbit who was blaming himself, I weakly punched the rabbit’s head between the rabbit’s ears.

“No matter how much, that’s not it.”

“Ugh… ! Why do you think so?”

“That’s true, if you evaluate a person’s value with just one mistake, everyone in this world will become useless. Besides, isn’t it wrong for employers to cover their employees?”

“But….”

“But you sleep, and it is purely my will that surrounds you. So you don’t have to blame yourself. At least I think so.”

“Ah….!!”

In order to stop the disturbing thoughts, I lightly brushed Alice’s hair.

Then Alice’s ears twitched, but immediately the tips of her ears folded slightly.

Judging from the fact that Alice’s own face was also slightly red, it seems that I did something a little embarrassing.

After quickly removing her hand from touching Alice’s hair, he breaks the strange atmosphere by clearing his throat instead of an apology.

“Kuhmm… !! Anyway, stop beating yourself up. If you can’t get your mind off it, just say thank you. Because I have enough of that.”

“Yes…… Thanks for saving me.”

“Say something.”

After successfully rescuing the rabbit, calming it down, I turned back to the spider.

The spider was also glaring at us fiercely, perhaps as if he had calmed down the confusion in his head.

“What? Are you going to fight after witnessing my regenerative abilities?”

“It doesn’t matter. Even if you have the ability to be immortal, it’s enough if I wrap you in my spider web and make you immobile forever!”

“I don’t know if it’s Miho, but I don’t like bondage play….”

As I pull out the sword I had stuck on the spiderling corpse, I burn the part of the sword body with fire.

Since it is full of spider blood and webs, it is to be disinfected and burned.

In that way, my plain clothes sword was cleaned without any impurity.

I’ve been using it all day today, but it still looks sharp, and it looks like it’s going to cut off floating leaves just by touching it.

There is absolutely no problem with the body or weapon. All that’s left is…….

“Alice.”

“Yes.”

“I’m asking just in case, but you don’t want to become a useless person, do you?”

“Of course not.”

“Okay then. Prove it properly this time.”

“Okay!”

Before she could tell her to prove her worth in some way, Alice grabbed her hand tightly.

And since there was a giant spider inside her pupil, it meant that she knew everything without saying anything.

There was no problem with my colleagues.

The situation is that I have already eliminated all the baby spiders. Only Arachne remains our enemy.

If Miho joins in, it’s a situation that can be solved for sure. However, you never know when another newly hatched baby spider will come.

If you think about it that way, now is the optimal situation, and it is a good opportunity to fight Arachne without anyone interfering.

There’s nothing more stupid than missing an opportunity like this…… That’s how we entered the final phase with Arachne.

***

Sudden death with only one life on either side.

I tried to bluff like I have immortality, but that doesn’t mean anything.

In the first place, my ability to materialize was only once a day. I just used it, so there is no more.

In addition to that, he even showed an action to dodge the attack.

The spider must have been convinced that I never had the ability to immortality.

“Die! You abominable things!!”

“Alice, I don’t have to care. Run wild.”

“Yes!”

A baptism of threads harder than steel spewing out of Arachne’s mouth.

Predicting in advance, I dodged to the right, and Alice used her ability to completely ignore the attack itself.

I thought Alice would definitely appear and attack the upper part of Arachne like before, so I headed towards the lower part of Arachne.

“Kikkiik?!”

Unsurprisingly, the sound of the carapace bursting from above the spider and the spider’s scream starting at the same time.

It was invariably unpleasant, but it wasn’t too much of an issue for me, as I only have one working ear.

I dodged all of the flying legs and safely came under the spider’s head and chest. Holding the sword with both hands, I raised it from the bottom to the top and cut it.

“Kikiiik!!”

– Pushaaak!

The drawn lines are left on the spider’s body, and the spider’s bodily fluids spurt out through the gaps in the lines.

It’s disgusting, but the successful attack now is a chance for an extra hit.

I quickly squeezed the handle of the sword in reverse and drove the tip of the sword into the spider’s stomach.

A heavy feeling different from when you simply cut it.

When I lightly deduced this feeling coming from my fingertips, I realized that the tip of the sword had penetrated the spider’s intestines.

If there is a slight disappointment, it is that the length of the sword is too short to inflict fatal wounds to the internal organs.

Still, it is very fortunate that there is a function made to be used for such occasions.

-Shuwook!!

When I press the button attached to the cross guard, gas gushes out from the inserted part.

As proof that the technology introduced by Yata is starting to work normally. Soon, a thrilling taste flowed into my body along with a terrifying explosion.

Slices of plain swords that burst the intestines and pierce flesh in an instant.

From noble mtl dot com

Like a speargun shot, the body of the sword started at the point where it had been pierced and went out tearing all the way to the other side of the back.

“Keee!!”

Not only the flesh, but also parts of the organs burst out, and Arachne struck a fierce struggle that was on a different level than before.

There’s no way the giant spider could sit still even after suffering the pain of having its flesh ripped up and down.

Arachne shook off the rabbit on top of it and clung to the ceiling, then started running away.

“Oh! Now, don’t run away for a second!!”

Arachne was doing her best to escape even though she was constantly dripping bodily fluids and dying.

The giant spider’s destination is probably the multipurpose hall.

I could see at a glance that they were planning to decorate something with the large number of baby spiders hatching there.

“Kikki!! Awesome!! I will definitely give you humans one more companion… !!”

To be honest, as Yata said, Arachne itself was not a very difficult opponent.

However, the thousands of baby spiders she gave birth to are different.

The little spiders you have to be careful of even the smallest ones.

Are these baby spiders hatching in large numbers and coming like a tidal wave? It’s already hell

How much more so if a swarm of spiders spreads in all directions and even attacks civilians… ?

It really sucks.

“Ugh… !! Bar, I have to go after it right away… !!”

On the other hand, Alice stumbles and can’t control her body properly.

It seems that Arachne was knocked out of his senses by the greatest scream of all time.

She Certainly, no one is as superior in her pursuit as she is, but in this state…….

“No, I’ll go. So, Alice, you are taking a break.”

“But… !!”

“It’s okay. Leave it to me.”

Before I chased after her, I supported the staggering Alice and sat her down on the ground, then stepped forward to chase after her.

I found an unusual shadow in the distance and stopped in place.

From the human figure with nine tails on the back, to the familiar clattering sound of flower shoes and thrilling singing voice.

With this, I knew at once who the identity of the shadow was.

Thank God! Thanks to Miho who showed up at the right time, it seems that the worst situation has been overcome.

“Oh my God? Lucky for you! The West’s right to wish is coming to me on its own!”

“Ah! Right….”

I completely forgot. Whether or not there will be a confrontation with the promise of granting one wish to the person who catches Arachne.

It is said that Alice and I fought hard and ended up in a dying state.

What if Miho ends up in a situation like this?

The winner of the competition becomes a fox regardless of contribution.

That means in other words….

“Then, what shall we do with Seo-Bang-nim with the wish ticket we luckily obtained? Woo hoo ♡”

The object that became dangerous only changed from a civilian to me.

Even this time, it was a definite crisis situation that could not be escaped even with the ability to achieve anything.

“Alice! Wake up!!”
