Snakes, parasites, deadly bats, huge spiders, and other monsters were common inside the cave. Emma was also certain that the thing lurking here was the enormous spider. Following the discovery that the spider's web was the same size as an ordinary man's arm,
...
When Riku and Emma heard a man cry for assistance, they were concerned. Something appeared to be restricting his mouth as he couldn't speak properly. At the same time, this man was fortunate since his screams echoed throughout the cave, allowing the two to hear him.
He gazed up, trying to figure out which of the several holes led to the exact spot where they might see Solomon. "Emma, we need to help him right now!"
Riku took a deep breath, his hands sweating, knowing that the monster who had stolen Solomon would kill him at any minute. The primary threats to them saving Solomon were Time, Decision, and Obstacle.
With Emma's assistance, she was able to effortlessly solve one of Riku's current concerns. He needed to pick which side they would take at this point, considering Emma already knew where Solomon was.
She pointed to the cliff, which was seventy meters away on the right side and eight meters high. "We need to get moving, Riku; I believe the monster will eat that man if we don't."
Swoosh!
Emma dashed towards the pit she had been directed to after hearing these remarks. Riku can't help but wonder if this woman has been completely injured for the previous few days, based on her movements and how easily she ascended the cliff. Nonetheless, he began to move as the second difficulty, the Time, approached. In order to complete the objective that was assigned to him, he must do something to save him.
Emma was seen climbing to the cliff by jumping to the solid stones mounted on the wall, and it was also determined how flexible she was. He shook his head, knowing he couldn't make that move.
"If I want to win this, I need to move flawlessly."
Obstacles, the third problem, had already arisen. Riku had spent so much time climbing this cliff as he's never done so before in his life. "F*ck me, I'm too slow," he murmured, barely lifting his body and straining himself to reach the hole's surface.
Emma extended her hand to him, knowing full well that he wouldn't be able to keep up with her. "Come on, Riku, hurry," she said as she lifted him into the new cave, where the green light made it a little easier to see around them.
"Thanks, Emma," he muttered weakly, despite the fact that he was in the right state to use the [Fly] ability, but refused to do so as he knew a difficult monster awaited them inside.
There were crucial reasons for him to use his mana pool. Aside from that, [Fire claw] was the only offensive skill he had, and it was the skill he got after using the [Manifest] on the Tibber monster. Furthermore, the chances of his being able to use the [Fire claw] was one and one chance to use [Fly], and with his current mana pool, this was his only option.
A thick spider's web lay in front of them, demonstrating the world's disparities in spider's web. It ejected a sticky substance that trickled over the ground.
Emma extended her hand closer to the web and placed it against it. She could feel the heat in this web, indicating that it hadn't been here for long.
"Riku, be careful and don't touch any of those webs," Emma said as she swiftly passed through the webs in front of him.
He was rather knowledgeable with the facts he was given. When a person touched the spider's web, the spiders would retaliate, or the monster would rush to the place and remove the threat.
Alas, he was successful in avoiding this web, but at the cost of his valuable time. After crawling over the sticky surface, he forced himself to a standing posture.
"I'm sorry, but I'm delaying down this rescue mission," he apologized, but what could he do? This was the quickest step he could make to avoid a worst-case scenario.
"Just concentrate, Riku; no one is blaming you," Emma stated solemnly.
One hundred meters were ahead of them before they reached the next turn. So they dashed inside, oblivious to the fact that their hasty footsteps had surrounded the area.
After turning on the new path that would undoubtedly lead them to Solomon's specific location, they inhaled the scent of soil. Furthermore, when they ran through this tunnel, the oxygen became heavier.
After a few minutes, Emma and Riku were able to see the source of the green light. They were covering their eyes so they wouldn't be dazzled by it and wouldn't be surprised if the creature attacked them quickly.
"Riku, you've already seen it; now be careful and don't forget to use your sword when the creature approaches us," Emma said, knowing that the monster they'd be facing wasn't ordinary.
Bam!
She aimed her strength at her feet before spreading her arms to slow Riku down. Riku had the speed and stamina to catch her, but the difficulty was his suppleness, in her perspective. But it wasn't the ideal time to tell him about it.
She mumbled, "Stop, Riku," as she had no idea where Solomon and the creature were.
After witnessing the numerous bones on the surface of this site, his eyes widened. The majority of the bones came from humans, since he could see their skulls strewn about, but it was the beasts' bones that horrified him the most. It appeared that the monster that lived here was assaulting all of the creatures it came across.
They could view a total of 122 human skulls and nearly fifty monster bones. It was also a sign that the monster here wasn't going to be a simple opponent.
Emma pulled out her black sharp knife, bracing herself for what was about to happen. Riku went the same way, determined to accomplish the mission and raise his basic status in any manner he could.
To explain the first location, there was a monster's spider web above them, with several monsters' gleaming green eggs in the centre. The major reason why the cave was illuminated by a green light.
1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6...
Six spiders would be present in this location, but he had paid no heed to them as he concentrated on finding Solomon. Until... Emma nudged him in the shoulder before pointing her finger towards the man dangling from the spider's web.
"Isn't that the man you're looking for, Riku?" she asked, her voice trembling as she continued her search for the monster.
He was looking in that direction with his eyes. He noticed the man had emerald green hair and a muscular torso that was tightened and dangling from the spider's web. But that wasn't the issue Solomon's tan skin tone turned somewhat violet as he couldn't breathe due to the web glued over his face.
"He's unconscious and having a hard time breathing, we must do something, Emma." He worriedly said, came to his mind slashes the web, and saved Solomon. But he felt he wasn't gonna be easy.
"I know, Riku, but should spot first where is the monster."
Two of them didn't know that the monster they were looking for was just behind the wall where they hiding right now.
Riku slowly revealed his head, strolling his eyes all over the place finding the monster's existence. Based on his observations, the monster's web has some heat which means it has just recently been released by its body. In his mind, it was impossible that the monster wasn't here, likewise with Emma she was thinking the same thing.
Tsk!
He clicked his tongue as they needed to force themselves to Solomon from that place even though they had no clue from the monster.
"Emma, give me a backup. I'm going to charge inside and free Solomon from those webs, your job here is to buy the monster's time. Once I get Solomon we're going to retreat." He said that plan transpired in his mind.
Emma doesn't look would reject his plan. She nodded her head at him without hesitation. "Leave it to me, Riku, I'll do everything to stop the monster."
There was no amount of time they needed to waste. Riku was immediately dashed inside the place first, didn't care even he was making cracking sound as he was stepping the bones scattered to surface.
Emma quickly followed him, scanning the area for a suitable hiding place for the monster. Riku had almost arrived to Solomon's location, so he sprang into the air and swung his sword downwards to sever the web.
Swish!
Riku attempted to catch Solomon with his body, but both of them were blasted to the surface.
Riku took advantage of the opportunity to remove the web that was blocking Solomon's nose and mouth.
"Haaaaa!!!" That was a heavy breath of Solomon.
As soon as the smoke vanished, he saw Emma was standing in front of them, pointing her knife for some reason.
"Riku, stand up, the Gigantic spider is here."
