Chapter 328
Chapter 328 - Let's Become Sticky
Simply put, it was likely already a matter exceeding the purview of adventurers . The whole forest had become entirely white . Not because the trees were withered, but because huge spider webs were hanging on the trees .
Normally, if the number of monsters increased, adventurers would accept requests and subjugate them . However, there were sometimes cases where monsters would proliferate rapidly and become too much to handle . If that happened, adventurers wouldn't be able to deal with them simply due to the problem of numbers, so the army, which usually had the role of protecting the kingdom and its cities, would go out to exterminate them .
Within Minshiana Kingdom, around a dozen cases which required the kingdom's army to move would occur each year, and when that happened, the Adventurers Guild's prestige would naturally diminish .
The Adventurers Guild was an organization independent of the countries, but it also operated with funds received from the countries according to its achievements in things like monster extermination . As a result, such cases were extremely disadvantageous in funding negotiations .
But 8 parties had already gone to the forest without returning . The situation was urgent, and if the White Party hadn't undertaken the quest this time, a report would have immediately been sent to the country . However, the forest was already completely occupied by the Mad Spiders . Thinking normally, it was a situation where they should abandon the request and rely on the army's numbers . Thinking normally . . .
◎ Black Stone Forest . Near the Highway
「Ah, Black Crystal found . 」
With angel wings spread, Kazane fluttered over the tops of the forest's trees .
The material『Black Crystal』that could be harvested in this forest grew on trees . To be precise, the sap in the trees came into contact with the air and crystallized, forming structures like beds of nails .
The upper parts of the trees were especially hard for people to reach, so even though they weren't in the deep parts of the forest yet, Kazane had found several reasonably large crystals .
「Oi, Kazane . It looks like spiders have come . 」
Kazane was focused on material gathering, but the skeleton Dragon Knight Jin Bahar's voice reached her from below . Apparently, he had discovered enemies .
「Okey-dokey . Where are they?」
Kazane said, and Jin Bahar pointed to the east . Then Kazane slipped through the trees as she flew that direction .
「Ok, found them . 」
She flew through the trees as she approached the six creatures . Kazane vigorously closed the distance to the group with her Skill『Boost』 . As the Mad Spiders made bewildered movements at her sudden approach, Kazane released a Material Shield as she passed by to make them fall to the ground .
(Well then)
Kazane headed towards one of the fallen Mad Spiders with her Tonfa's loaded『Fire Boost』Spell and destroyed its head with a Killing Leg axe kick .
『Shyaaaaa!!??』
As the spiders' roar echoed, one of the Mad Spiders was destroyed . Since it was a bug, it should have had high vitality, but with its head and even its chest destroyed, it would never be able to move again .
Kazane continued forward and landed on the ground, then turned her gaze to the remaining monsters to decide her next prey, but at that same moment, something white and sticky came flying from the front .
「Uwaa!?」
Kazane held out her hands to block the sudden attack with Material Shield . However, immediately after that,『Intuition』activated and warned her .
(Eh, why?)
While confused by the danger signal coming from within herself, Kazane fired her Material Shield . But that was a bad move . The liquid passed through the Material Shield as if it wasn't there and hit Kazane .
「You're kidding!?」
Kazane shouted, but it was too late . White stickiness covered Kazane's entire body, overwhelming her with its momentum and making her tumble until she collided with the roots of a large tree .
「It hurttts! Uwaaaa, sticky!?」
Kazane's sorrowful cry resounded . The Shorty's face and entire body had been defiled with white stickiness . She became wet . Furthermore, it also stuck to the roots of the tree Kazane had hit and stole away her movement .
(The spider thread was made of magical power!?)
The sticky feeling was revolting . But Kazane was in the middle of a battle . And the five Mad Spiders that were repelled with Material Shield a moment ago jumped to prey upon Kazane .
「HusbandーーーTail Attack!!!」
In response to the movements of the monsters, Kazane bent her body slightly to free her left hand from the stickiness, then thrust it forward and shouted . Thereupon, a rainbow-colored light was emitted from the Rainbow Dragon Ring on her ring finger, which became the tail of a huge Crystal Dragon and knocked away the Mad Spiders .

It was a partial summoning of the God Dragon Emperor Naga using the ring made from his Rainbow Heart .
By the way, the maximum number of points that could be stored in the Rainbow Dragon Ring was 10 Love . It recovered 1 Love per day, and Husband Punch consumed 1 Love . The Husband Tail Attack just now consumed 3 Love, Sevens Ray consumed 6 Love, and Husband Full Burst consumed 10 Love . That unit was arbitrarily attached by Kazane, and when Naoki heard it, the turning of his head made a grinding noise . A wicked woman who consumed Love to fight . That was Kazane-san .
However, only one of the Mad Spiders was smashed and killed in the end . The other four giant spiders could still move .
Kazane considered consuming more of her husband's Love, but it seemed that wasn't necessary .
『Motherーーーー!!』
Immediately after she thought she saw a line of light momentarily cross through the air along with that voice, two of the giant spiders were abruptly bisected horizontally . A focused, high-powered Mega Beam had slashed through the air and cut through the Mad Spiders .
「Tatsuo's a frightening child . . . 」
Kazane was amazed by her son's growth . He focused Mega Beam to the limit to raise its power and cut . That was the plan to strengthen Tatsuo, who wouldn't grow physically for the time being . It also showcased the difference between Kazane, who easily acquired and used several Skills, and Tatsuo, who tried to master one Skill .
And the remaining two . . .
「Gugaaaaaaa!」
「Aryaaa!!」
A blow from the Berserk Ogre's club pulverized one of the Mad Spiders, and the other was filled with holes by Jin Bahar's rush with Gungnir .
「Oi oi, don't charge forward alone . 」
Skeleton Dragon Knight Jin Bahar approached with a dumbfounded expression . He was a skeleton, though .
Kazane was released from the spider webs, which disappeared with the annihilation of the monsters that had produced it, and confirming that she was finally free, she stood up and said「Sorry . 」Tatsuo softly landed on Kazane's head, and she also said「Thanks」to Tatsuo . Then she waved to the Berserk Ogre, but the Berserk Ogre simply turned away . After the Devil King declaration, his fervor had stabilized, and he seemed to be easier to summon, but it seemed he wasn't in his Dere period yet .
Individual Mad Spiders were weaker than Ogres, and since the spider webs weren't thick here, she thought she would be able to easily defeat them . However, when it was an opponent she was facing for the first time, she had no way of knowing what they could do to her . So thinking, Kazane reflected .
「I was impatient because I thought I could finally defeat one . 」
「Well, since my master has been hogging them all since a while ago . 」
This was the third battle against Mad Spiders in the forest, but this was the first time Kazane herself had subjugated any .

「So, where is that master Jinrai-san?」
「I don't know . He went ahead with that cat . 」
It seemed he didn't keep last time's declaration of living earnestly for even a single chapter .
「Well, it's Jinrai-san, so there's nothing to worry about, though . 」
Through feeling, she could roughly understand Yuuko-nee's position . When she looked, the spider webs in the vicinity had disappeared . Like the white sticky thread that had covered Kazane, they probably disappeared due to the extinction of the Mad Spiders .
As for the current situation, the party had separated into groups after reaching the forest . The players Kazane, Yumika, and Naoki were separated into each group, and just like they did for the Demon Wolf Subjugation, they were exterminating the Mad Spiders while coordinating with Chat .
Anyway, the forest was large, and there were many spiders, so time consuming measures were necessary to exterminate them . They didn't know how effective it would be, but for now, they planned to do a fine-tooth-comb search operation .
And after the Mad Spiders were defeated, Kazane wrote in the permanently open Chat Window .
Kazane:「We brought down 6 just now . Jinrai-san went somewhere ahead . 」
Yumika:「Master . . . orz」
Naoki:「It's going well . As expected from the Holy Skull Legion's hugeness, it's strong . 」
Yumika:「Over here, I'm having Kuromaru search for them, and the Lightning Sphere and Flame Power are defeating them . I rarely have a turn . 」
Naoki:「Also, the spider thread was blocked by the Mirror Shield from the mass production models . 」
Kazane:「Over here, it slipped through my Material Shield and made me all sticky . 」
Naoki:「Details . 」
Kazane:「Then, let's continue to do our best . 」
Yumika:「Roger . 」
Naoki:「Details . 」
Kazane subsequently opened her Skill Window to check . Her Skills had increased by one .
(『Spider Web』is the Skill I obtained?)

It was spider thread . It seemed she could produce the magical power spider thread from a short while ago .
「The others are doing well . So then, shall we follow Jinrai-san?」
「Let's do so . Good grief, my master's lack of calm is unsuitable for his age . 」
「Well, being lively is a good thing . 」
Kazane, Jin Bahar, Tatsuo, the Berserker Ogre, and Rokuten-kun (who had joined them late) started advancing even deeper .
