"That... is the Spider Queen Arine."

Shin Se-hee's low and calm voice reached my ears.

Looking at the ten disgusting spider legs twitching in front of me, I thought to myself:

‘Still, the fact that communication works even inside this double gate is really impressive.’

Just in case it didn’t, I had expanded my detection range to the maximum. Rina must have really poured her soul into modifying it.

‘Will it hold up?’

At this point, I had shared a lot of information with Shin Se-hee regarding command. It wasn’t strictly necessary, but there were many things that would be good to know in her position.

For instance, in this gate, what kind of enemies might appear, what kind of attacks they could launch, the effects and ranges of those attacks, and how to move efficiently to counter them.

Among this information was what I knew about the Spider Queen Arine.@@novelbin@@

Of course, when Shin Se-hee heard it, she had said with her mouth wide open in disbelief, "No... you can even predict things like this? Then, what kind of price does that foresight come with...?"

But I decided to push through with shameless confidence!

‘Well, they’re already treating me as a half-prophet anyway.’

And here, the first thing to do:

Danger Level: SSS-class

Title: One of the Seven Sins [Greed]

Appearance: Upper body is a pale humanoid figure, while the lower body has ten spider legs. Notable features include nine eyes. Be cautious of her wide field of vision.

Direct injection via claws and fangs. Fatal upon contact.

Spray form for area-of-effect attacks, causing severe injuries.

Poison mist for wide-area attacks. While the damage is reduced in this form, it’s still significant enough to be dangerous.

In double-gate situations, both gates must be cleared simultaneously. Otherwise, even if Arine is killed in one gate, she will resurrect from the other.

Relatively weak against purification and fire attributes.

However, her resistance means it’s not a significant weakness.

Her abdomen, where her venom glands and threads are produced, is a critical weak point.

However, she is aware of this vulnerability and guards it carefully.

"...."

"Ugh, fuck! What the hell is that?!"

"Seriously, that’s disgusting..."

"I feel a visceral sense of revulsion..."

"Ahhh... I have arachnophobia..."

"I think I’m going to throw up."

"Just imagining something like that crawling out of the gate is horrifying."

"Yu-ha, run away..."

"If Yu-ha runs away, those things will crawl out here. Are you even thinking?"

"Yu-ha, do it... please."

"Yu-ha, show us. "

"Utopia... please..."

"How can Utopia fight something like that?!"

"Please, I’m begging you. Don’t let that monster escape the gate. "
