58 – 58. Acrobatics

Scarlett looked down.

At the bottom of the cave.

It was so high that she couldn’t even see the ground that she and her instructor had stood on just a moment ago.

Roaring noises heard repeatedly from there.

Now, that fighting dog, who could even be called a saint, was smashing baby spiders by swinging a blunt weapon regardless of direction.

Sometimes, the spiders that were missed were cut into pieces by a female knight wearing a metal plate with her sword.

Rather than a battle, it was closer to a massacre.

Only screams of joy come up here as echoes.

In comparison, this place is quiet.

No screams or cries are heard.

The monster that was once crying was just waiting for her and her instructor to make a move.

That cocky attitude seemed to show off the difference in class between humans and monsters.

However, it is neither bluff nor deception.

Numerous cocoons tied up in the corners of a precarious spider web, difficult to even place one’s feet on.

Whether they were travelers who took a wrong step, or a punitive force that ran with purpose.

Because they have all been reduced to ‘trophies’ of the monster in front of us.

A place where life is ridiculed and death is bound.

This was definitely a different world from the one below.

But she moves.

She finally takes her first step.

Kyaaak!

An immediate and explicit response comes back.

The only light was the flare that exploded from below, so in this situation I could barely see an inch in front of me.

A spider web flying at high speed.

Scarlett got to her feet and jumped up.

Generally, it is an act of suicide.

Who would throw themselves on a not-so-fine spider web, knowing where they would fall?

But, she was different.

Crash!

The sound of a spider web that has lost its target getting stuck in the exterior wall.

At the same time, she lightly landed on another spider web.

But, before I could catch my breath.

Spider webs flying again.

After dodging again, she almost started running.

Crash! Clap!

It flies continuously and is avoided immediately.

As long as there was a place to stand, even if it was a single line, that was enough.

Like an acrobat, he laughs at the projectiles thrown by the queen in front of him and narrows the distance.

That way, we were able to face each other.

Krrr…

The queen of spiders hanging upside down from the ceiling, drooling.

She shook her hands.

It was an unconscious action, but the taste was different today.

Heavier feeling than usual.

A new gauntlet on her hand.

Only after seeing it did she realize.

The reason why she was able to move so calmly even when facing a Class A monster in front of her.

This is not the first time she has encountered this situation.

I have already faced an overwhelming being a couple of times.

Whether it is a traitorous swordsmanship instructor,

Whether it is a tattered monster made of demonic energy.

I survived and won every time.

That instructor was always there.

On this day, I was talking crazy things,

He was a man who was prone to eccentric travels.

Because everything had its own meaning.

The calmness based on experience and trust.

It was never in vain.

Bang!

Arachne’s legs pounce on her in an instant.

He must have aimed precisely at Scarlett’s neck and tried to pierce it.

It’s blocked. The gauntlets she lifted crossed exactly over the end of her legs, offsetting her shock.

Kyaaagh!

You must not have thought that it would be physically blocked, the spider bastard let out a scream that was almost like a scream.

The other leg flies in.

It was so obvious that I yawned.

Woe!

She jumps up and lands on her other rope.

That place is probably the most dangerous place.

Eyes that look like they are studded with five or six bright red jewels.

It was the front of the guy.

“There are a lot.”

It has six eyes.

There are two of us, and it’s dark so we can barely see one inch in front of us when we fight. Unjustly.

She raised her gauntleted hands,

I threw it out like that.

A healthy mind resides in a healthy body.

That is correct. Only half.

I have no expertise in psychology or psychoanalysis, but I can confidently say that I know this game better than anyone else.

The mind and body are complementary to each other.

At least in this world, that’s the case.

This is consistent with the reason why I worked hard to prevent the deaths of extra students.

If it had gone according to the original story, each battle… No, every time you compete, you would have to put your hands together and pray.

Please don’t let me get PTSD.

Let’s stop retrying.

No matter how much experience and skill the heroines have accumulated,

There is nothing you can do about the afterimages of your dead friends that momentarily block your vision.

If you fight with a mental breakdown,

Of course, you can lose a fight that you want to win.

In a losing battle, you just fall behind.

But, it is different now.

Scarlett’s acrobatics unfolds before my eyes.

Using the slippery spider web as a stepping stone, he moves towards the queen without hesitation.

It was proof that her spirit was not as exhausted as her fingernails, and at the same time, it was my achievement.

Adela or Paula can’t even imitate her own talent in her entire life.

Taking full advantage of this, she uses her single body to attract the aggro of Arachne, her Class A monster.

In this situation, there was only one thing for me to do.

‘It’s so slippery.’

First of all, I am not Scarlett.

I can’t do that.

That’s why we move forward cautiously, one step at a time.

The destination is the middle of the battlefield, where a battle so bizarre that it can be called a circus is taking place.

Among them, the donga string that allows the queen to reign as her queen.

Cut the thickest spider web that is always connected to the animal’s tail.

That was my role,

Scarlett was making great time.

Actually, it would have been nice to have more time, but she was more capable than I could have imagined.

Bam! Bang! Bang!

She moved across the field, which was infinitely advantageous to her opponent, as if she were at home, and even trampled the queen’s legs with her fist.

Now that I look at it, one of its eyes is also bulging.

He’s actually scarier than the monster.

A first-year student defeating a Class A monster in a one-on-one match at the boss’s home ground.

It was a performance that imperial scholars would rush to claim as a sense of research.

As the sum becomes longer, mistakes are bound to occur.

Bam!

“Pfft!”

I’ve blocked it well so far, and I blocked the attack just now.

It wasn’t perfect. I blocked it out of the way.

She flies away with the recoil.

“Bind.”

I happened to come this way, so I tied it with a binder.

After that, I was able to safely receive it by opening the blood system.

“You’re too greedy, Scarlett.”

“What, why? “I told you to do this.”

“I told you to take your time. When did I tell you to kill me alone? “I have never been entrusted with such an important task.”

“…”

“But, I have to admit it.”

“What?”

I pointed.

Arachne, barely able to catch her breath after blowing her away, her body quivering.

The first leg on the left.

She may not have known because she was in the middle of a fight, but

The bridge that Scarlett focused on,

It was almost tattered.

“I think the new gauntlets fit well.”

“…Well, it was useful.”

“Then, let’s just cut it to that point.”

She had an expression of dissatisfaction just now, but

It got brighter right away.

Scarlett smiles and nods.

“This is the last time.”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m saying don’t worry about landing.”

She understood what I meant,

She immediately kicked off her web and rushed forward.

Running without hesitation.

Scarlet quickly enters Arachne’s range.

I also ran after him.

Her back and Arachne’s legs overlap.

Wedge!

An attack so strong that it sounds like the wind is tearing, almost like a struggle.

Now the queen looks quite different from the one who reigned haughtily clinging to the ceiling.

Desperately hanging on to the spider web, her legs were thrown away desperately.

Even, two.

Legs covering both sides of Scarlett.

The queen’s body tilted, but

Scarlett also faced her own betrayal.

However, it is also within my jurisdiction.

Kaang!

The two legs are sharply blocked by two blood-red shields.

In an instant, a recoil that made her tremble hit Arachne, and her body’s balance was completely lost.

And here are Scarlett’s gauntlets.

From noble mtl dot com

It burns at the weakest part between the legs.

Plap!

With a bizarre, bone-popping sound.

A class A monster’s legs are torn off by its hands.

Kyaaa!

Ride on the back of the howling queen.

There was no resistance. In the first place, I wouldn’t have the spirit to do that.

I saw the spider web behind his back, in contact with the ceiling.

Sigh!

Cut it out.

The rope that supported the queen, who had already lost her balance, was broken.

The fall started immediately.

With nowhere to stand, the body just follows gravity.

I snatched her as she was falling, with her hanging by her web, which she broke.

Bindro.

“…”

The scenery is reversed from when we came up.

Now I was supporting her.

She was hanging by her binds in the air, looking up at me.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“…No, there is none.”

A tearing scream is heard from above.

I could hear clearly.

Because that was Adela’s role in the first place.

‘The core is inside her head.’

‘How do I guess it?’

‘I’m going to crush her head first and she’ll pop out on her own. ‘It’s as simple as that.’

She creates threads of her mana at her fingertips,

Infused with her magical power.

Two petals rise,

Magic power fills up in an instant.

Finishing.

A place just for that,

Cover for that one shot.

Swarms of spiders flock from all directions,

In this mess, the saint takes care of it and the female knight helps.

She had to do her part, There was no reason why she couldn’t do it.

Soon, the spider plummets to the floor.

Quaaang!

A loud noise rings out.

The queen fell and her head exploded,

It is so large that it makes you flinch for a moment,

One leg is broken, possibly torn off.

And, what is visible through her hair.

Bright red core.

She took aim at Cheonhwa and shot.

She didn’t even need to take a deep breath.

“…I can guess right even with my eyes closed.”

I can only admire the attentiveness of her instructor, who created the most advantageous situation for her.

Soon, that Manatan.

Quaaang!

It hits the core head-on and explodes with a much louder roar.

The feeling of the blow was such that she clenched her small hands.

It really went well.

The dust swirls beyond the clouds,

Adela also slightly closed her eyes.

Krrr..

“…Huh?”

Sounds that should not be heard.

I opened my eyes for a moment, but I couldn’t see anything.

Crunch, Cluck…

However, a silhouette has begun to appear.

The moment I recognized what it was,

Her body also stiffened.

“Obviously…”

It must have been right.
