Chapter 37: Spider's Whisper p6

The first thing Shiro did was to secure the aggro of the boss. She was going to be the main tank since she had the least chance of dying to it.

Creating a few spears around her, she dashed towards the Spider King.

*BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG

Swiping his claws, the king destroyed the spears.

Shiro frowned seeing this as the king's observational abilities are top tier.

Twisting her body under his claws, she crouched down and tapped the underbelly of the king with her palms.

*BOOMM!!!

A giant pillar of ice exploded as it forced the king to land on his side.

"BOMB IT!"

Someone shouted as magic and skills shot towards the boss.

Getting back up with difficulty, the king was about to attack when Shiro found the perfect opportunity.

Like the sad royal guard, the king was also penetrated.

"…"

"…"

'WHAT IS WITH THIS GIRL AND ASSES!!' The adventurer's thought, feeling an ounce of pity for the boss.

However, that pity didn't get in the way of them killing it as they continued to launch attacks.

They could only attack since the other adventurers are taking care of the extra spiders flowing into the room.

"BOSS LOST 20%! GET THE BOMB!" Jonas shouted out as the maw of the boss opened up to reveal rows of disgusting teeth.

Someone threw the bomb over but their aim was a little off.

Shiro frowned seeing this as she dashed towards it. Twisting her body, she kicked the spider bomb into the mouth of the king. She made sure to use counter weight phantom as to not set it off early.

*BOOM!!!

The king recoiled back as bomb exploded in his mouth.

"YOUR FATHER COULD SHOOT BETTER THAN YOU! SOMEONE ELSE THROW NEXT TIME!!" Jonas called out angrily at the thrower.

Shiro only chuckled as she understood the joke.

While she was tanking the boss, Lyrica was displaying a surprising amount of damage per second.

*CING CING CING CING!

Her blade created scratches upon scratches on the armour but the damage was dealt.

Backflipping off the back of the king, she landed softly.

A spider tried to jump on her but was killed with a single swipe.

With Lyrica increasing her damage output, the HP of the king was decreasing dramatically.

"BOMB!" Jonas shouted out as this time someone actually threw on target.

60%... 40%.... 20%...

The HP decreased steadily as it reached the final hurdle. The last bomb.

However, when maw opened up, the bomb spider was a little too far.

"Shiro help me!" Lyrica called out as Shiro nodded.

Lyrica stabbed her blade into the ground as she stepped on it and launched her self through the air.

Shiro flicked her wrist as a ramp made from ice was created easily.

Lyrica landed without much force as she swiped up the bomb. Throwing it, the bomb flew in a perfect arc and landed in the spider's maw.

"AAAHHHHHHGGGGGG!!!" Crying out in pain, the king collapsed on his own body weight.

"Fuu…" Wiping her sweat, Lyrica walked over to her blade.

"ALRIGHT! QUICKLY CLEAR OUT THE MOBS!! WE NEED TO FOCUS ON THE QUEEN!!" Jonas shouted out as everyone pushed to kill the spiders. After the king dies, bomb spiders stopped appearing.

Therefore, they wanted to clear the normal spiders for more room against the queen.

Clearing out a 30-meter diameter circle around them, they gulped as they prepared for the queen.

If they died they would die for good. But, times have changed, it would be hard to go through life without being an adventurer. You just wouldn't get the required cash to survive. Naturally, you could also work for the government. But, with so many people in the world, who can guarantee a job?

So they risk their lives to survive in this changed world.

*PHEW! PUCHI!

A blade was launched at an adventurer as it lacerated deep into his torso.

"SILVIA!" Jonas shouted out. Everyone here was risking their lives, so if they could save 1 or 2 they would.

Silvia quick rushed over to him as she healed him as fast as he could.

Shiro, who saw this, quickly ran towards the queen as she needed to stop her from attacking other adventurers.

Creating a spear of ice, Shiro vaulted herself up as she kicked the end of the spear and sent it to the queen.

*BOOM!

Shiro exploded the spear just before impact as the force send the queen back stumbling.

"Use this chance to prepare!" Lyrica shouted out as knew what Shiro wanted to say.

Shiro gave her a thumbs up.

Creating two large pillars of ice beside her, Shiro stood like a war goddess protecting the gate.

The queen slowly crawled back up as she glared at Shiro. She recognised the girl who stabbed her husband's anus.

As the dust cleared, everyone could see the queen in her full glory. She was a large humanoid with spider shape designed armour, pale skin, 4 pairs of eyes and long white hair.

[Spider Queen LVL 20 – Raid Boss]

HP: 599,500/600,000

MP: 900,000/900,000

Her initial attack only hit for a pitiful 500 HP damage as the armour was abnormally though.

Shiro only frowned harder as she saw the HP regenerate after a moment.

'We'll have to keep hitting her to keep her regeneration down.' She thought.

Glancing backwards, Shiro noted that the man was healed.

"TANKERS CHARGE!" Jonas shouted as sweat was dripping down his head.

The person who was heavily injured was one of their tankers, and if they aren't careful, they'll be done for.

Dark red smoke started to flow out from the cracks of the queen's armour as Shiro understand it to the fear skill.

The smoke merged into a skull as it shot towards one of the adventurers.

"ARG!" He cried out as his eye became bloodshot. Before he could even do anything, his buddy stuffed a potion into his mouth breaking him out of the fear status.

"Thanks." He said as he panted.

His buddy nodded as they returned to the fight.

'At least they can react fast enough.' Shiro thought, thankful for this.

The two pillars beside her extended out with smaller sections as they blocked the queen's strike.

Yin Style Phantom Arts: 3rd Phantom – Counter Weight Phantom.

She raised her leg and pushed the queen's arms down before twisting her body and gave the queen another kick.

As Shiro kicked the queen back, Lyrica dashed behind the queen and stabbed her using her blade.

"ARH!" The queen cried out as her legs extended out behind her.

Lyrica wanted to dodge backwards as she knew she was in danger.

Shiro erected a shield seeing this.

"AHH!!!" The legs weren't slowed by the shield as it pierced through and stabbed Lyrica in her abdominal area.

It was about to stab at Lyrica again but Shiro dashed in front of the queen.

She grabbed the leg with her left hand.

Yin Style Phantom Arts: 3rd and 4th Phantom – Counter Weight + Internal Feasting Phantom.

Twisting her body, Shiro created a blade on her leg as she applied all the force into a sing point.

*CRACK!

The leg cracked as it broke away from the queens back.

Green blood splattered everywhere as Shiro threw the leg away.

Lyrica took this chance to drink an HP potion.

"Thanks." She said as Shiro nodded.

Dashing forwards, Shiro was about to stab towards the queen's eye.

The queen leaned back as she kicked towards Shiro.

Touching the leg with her left hand, Shiro flipped once before kicking the queen in the face.

Shiro only frowned as her reach was abysmally small since she would have easily ripped the eye out of the queen's skull.

Dark red smoke erupted out the queen as Shiro was hit but the status debuff.

"OH CRAP!" Lyrica shouted in a panic as she took out a potion. However, Shiro was already nowhere to be seen.

"Huh?" Lyrica muttered in confusion.

She suddenly shivered as snowflakes fell from the sky.

"Did Shiro get feared?" Jonas asked with a frown.

"Yeah she did. When I tried to release her she was long gone." Lyrica said with a bit of panic.

"But it seems like it worked out for us instead." Jonas said pointing at the blizzard that was started to pick up speed.

"RUN AWAY FROM THE QUEEN!!" He shouted out.

A pair of azure eyes were seen in the blizzard as Lyrica shivered feeling the killing intent being radiated from Shiro.

"What the hell did she see when she was feared." Jonas muttered with a frown.

Meanwhile, Shiro was smiling like a psychopath in the blizzard as she started down the queen like a hunter and prey.

When she was hit by the fear, a part of her was wondering what she was afraid of. However, what she saw was the light bearer hero. She didn't fear him, no far from it. She wanted nothing else but to end him.

"Since you want to take his appearance so much lemme fulfil your wish." Shiro grinned as she created a spear of ice.

Dashing forwards, Shiro dodged the queens strike and pinned the arm to the ground.

Her cold aura was in full force as the blizzard was created mostly from her passive.

After freezing the arm, Shiro kicked the queens head.

The kick caused the queen to recoil backwards as Shiro flicked her wrist and 5 spears stabbed towards the queen from different directions.

Glancing around, Shiro saw that the blizzard was obscuring everyone's view as she grinned.

Lightning coagulated in her palm as a dagger was formed. The dagger was printed with a skill she recycled from one of the items she scrapped before.

[Nano Tech Ice Dagger (Blue) LVL 10]

+15 pierce.

Skill – Mana Focus.

+10% MP for 5 minutes.

Cooldown: 5 minutes.

Drinking the MP potion, she grinned at her MP count.

[MP: 31,910/31,910]

Naturally, this also means her Bow Creation was unlocked.

Holding the dagger in her mouth, Shiro dashed towards the queen.

Tapping on the knee, she jumped over her as a bow was formed in her hands.

[Nano Craft Bow (Blue+) LVL 25]

+30 Pierce

+50 Power

+50 Penetration

+50 Critical Chance

+50 Critical Damage

Skill – Mana Enhanced Arrow

Insert stored mana to increase the power of the arrow fired.

Stored MP: 25,000/25,000

Cost: 1,000 per arrow.

The queen currently had around 85% of her health. There were enemies everywhere around them so Shiro could use her mana without worry that a red dot suddenly appeared.

Creating an ice hook, she used it to pull the bow back in place of her right arm.

Her eyes were cold as a neon blue arrow coagulated on the bow.

*BANG!!

The arrow was fired as it pierced through the armour with ease. Twisting her body, Shiro threw the bow up as she drank a few MP potions.

Pivoting on her leg, she avoided a strike from the queen before roundhouse kicking the head.

The space between them allowed the bow to fall back into her hands as she created another arrow and fired at point blank range.

Meanwhile, everyone outside could only watch the blizzard increase in size and turn the area in front of them into an icy tundra.

They couldn't see through the blizzard as all they saw were flashes of light.

One of the lights pierced through the blizzard.

*BOOM!

A giant crater was formed in the wall as the adventurers near it became pale.

"Whatever happens, remind me not to piss Shiro off." Jonas said as Lyrica nodded.

From what it seems, what Shiro fears most was also what she wanted to kill the most.

One of the adventurers saw the arrow and muttered in disbelief.

"How the hell can there be such a dense arrow of mana?!"

"What do you mean?"

"For it to cause this kind of destruction, it means the mana retained most of its power until contact. Even for me, the mana would disperse in time which is why we use man-made arrows to be more efficient."

"So you're telling me a mage fires a better mana arrow than you."

"… yes."

The light eventually faded after 30 minutes.

The blizzard faded away as they soon paled at the sight.

Shiro sat on the corpse of the Spider Queen with bloodshot eyes and an evil grin. She barely had a scratch on her as they looked at the mangled corpse of the spider queen.

The most prominent injury was a hole from her rear all the way through to her head. It was a clean hole as they shivered thinking about what could have happened.

Shiro pulled out a potion as she drank it and dispelled the fear status. Her killing intent dropped dramatically as the snowfall ended just like that.

"….."

'IF YOU COULD SOLO THE GOD DAMN FINAL BOSS WHY WAS IT SO HARD TO KILL THE BOSSES BEFORE!!!'
