My Gene System

Chapter 40 - Spider's Domain III

Riku did everything he could to stop the woman from acting aggressively and murmuring phrases that she was only one could understand. "What the hell are you doing, Emma? Stop right now! I have an idea how we can slay this monster!" he exclaimed as he came to a halt.

Emma had already leaped into mid-air, casting a skill she possessed, so it was too late.

[Drill for black irony!]

His face was suddenly lighted by a black glow. It was the first time he observed how magic works in this world, and he even saw a skill being used, though it was quite basic. Emma's ability to regulate was significantly superior to that of the village guards.

She was focusing her energies on her black keen knife, which was in a specific position. She was also checking her distance within the spider and watching how this monster would react to her strike at the same time.

The creature raised its two front legs, which were equipped with razor-sharp blades that could cut this woman in the blink of an eye.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

She spun her body and reversed her course as she saw the monster was about to slice her body. She has easily evaded the monster's attacks and was now fast landing on the monster's head.

Her hair was brushed back until she was ready to use the skill she had just cast. When she displayed her knife, you could see it morph into a dark sword.

Swish!

She swung her blade downwards as soon as she was about to fall, intending to slash the monster's body in half.

Boom!

Inside the spider's domain, a powerful explosion occurred, powerful enough to tear the web that was dispersed all over the area and cause the green glistening eggs to fall to the ground.

Swoop! Swoop! Swoop!

The eggs made a cracking sound when they hit the surface and then splashed green liquid. Or, to be more precise, a green neon-colored liquid was flowing towards Solomon's feet, and it was emitting a woody odor for some reason.

Fuck!

Emma's very large mana pool and the strength of her skill astounded even Riku. Still, he clenched his teeth, knowing that if Emma failed to exterminate the gigantic spider, they would face the casualty.

To put it simply, he read articles, novels, and manga. If someone damaged the spider's eggs, it would become more aggressive, thus if the spider scented this woody scent, its power and mana inside its body would greatly rise, and the people inside this cave should begin to flee immediately.

There were a few moments after that. They couldn't see Emma due to the general dust dripping from the ceiling and the black smoke caused by Emma's abilities.

"Hey, Solomon, try breaking the web in the entryway!" Riku handed his blade back to the muscular man frozen to the ground.

With his shaking eyes, Solomon slowly tilted his head towards Riku. He fumbled to ask him, "Y-you want me to destroy the web?"

Riku, on the other hand, was born in a world where monsters were commonplace. Every day, he saw mutants fighting a monster in the cities, schools, and stadiums, among other places. Even though Solomon was born in the world where the monster existed, there was one distinction between them. Riku has already dedicated his life to hunting down a monster in order to locate his mother, who has mysteriously vanished. Solomon had enough guts to face a single monster and obtain water for their village, but that changed when he was confronted with a formidable foe and a dangerous circumstance.

He wanted to give him a direction to go so they could easily find him once they successfully escaped from this monster. "Of course! Slice the web and immediately escape in this place, but remember, wait for us in the lake—?" Nonetheless, he came to a halt when he noticed Solomon shaking his head frantically and rapidly crawling back till his body met the cave wall.

"N-no, Riku, I can't do that! T—That monster is surely going to kill me!" Solomon said with a trembled voice.

Riku wasn't pleased with Solomon's response to their current predicament. He did everything he could to find him, so the only thing he couldn't figure out was why this middle-aged man had lost his will to live.

"What the fuck are you thinking, Solomon? Mellisa and Jara were waiting for their father to return home! Then you're just sitting here and burdening the people around you! If you really wanted to survive, you'd do something, I'm done with this..." After he spits these words, he went towards Emma's location for somehow he could give her a backup.

Riku was well savvy, the words he said were a bit harsh, but it couldn't help it, Solomon needed someone who would help him to awaken his senses.

Swoosh!

Solomon left in the area along with the sword that had a wooden handle. He was dumbfounded at the man who fearlessly entered the thick smoke.

"W-What I'm doing here? This is not me..." Solomon muttered.

...

At this point, Riku doesn't have care even Solomon and Emma saw what kind of skills he had. Inside, he wanted to see the situation, but unfortunately, he couldn't see anything. So he swung his arms to blow all the smoke and dust that enveloped the area.

Yet, blowing everything away wasn't enough; he could use his wings to accomplish so, but that would deplete his mana pool.

"Where have you gone, Emma? Come back right now-!" he couldn't finish his sentence as the two persons were thrown into the air.

BOOM!

The gigantic spider used its eight legs to stomp to the ground, forcing them back. Emma and Riku, as well as some bones, were raised. But it was Emma who drew his attention the most, her abdominal wounds bleeding again.

As a result, the chances of defeating this creature dropped dramatically.

Swoosh!

After that, the two slid back, gazing at the monster about to go mad since Emma had accidentally destroyed its eggs.

Tsk!

He clicked his tongue, knowing it was hard now to execute the plan on how they were going to annihilate the monster. After that, "Are you okay, Emma? Why you didn't listen to my warning?"

Furthermore, Emma had no intention of answering some of his queries. In her mind, why did she need to listen to someone who was weaker than her? She was glad that he saved her life, but that was insufficient to persuade her.

"Hey, Emma, believe me on this-!"

Boom!

The monster ran towards them before they could even start a dialogue. It was rapidly swinging its two blades and didn't seem to mind what it was hitting.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The pieces of the ground were strewn about, and the bones the monster smashed turned to sparkling dust. The monster appeared to be capable of ten slices in three seconds.

Riku ran to the left, as Emma also moved to the right. By doing so, the monster will be able to choose which human it will attack first.

However, when the monster didn't look at one of them, they were taken aback. Or, to be more precise, the giant spider was heading directly for the middle-aged man who was dropping his guard.

"Solomon! Run right now!" Riku shouted.

Boom!

A sound explosion transpired as the monster easily decreased the fifty meters distance into twenty meters. It was enough distance to kill Solomon.

Swoosh!

It can be helped, Riku used his [Fire claw] to block the monster's blade that rapidly coming at him.

Boom!

Because of the force, he was also blown away and whacked through the wall.

"N-No? How Riku had transformation magic?" Emma stuttered.
