"Have you ever pointed your sword at someone?" The girl's questions create a confusion on Florian.
"Why would I point my sword at people? They aren't monsters."
"Humans are monsters, hidden under the mask. You could be a monster yourself." That was obviously an insult. He wants to see how what was the girl's expression. Did she say it to insult him, or did she say it because of her experience? He was so curious, yet he can't let go of his eyes on the spider.
As a swordman, he knows that you should never remove your eyes from your enemy.
"Be careful, or you'll become a caterpillar in its cocoon," she said. She never fought a spider before. It can be a good experiment to her strength. She then wonders how tough the spider skin is under its hair.
"I won't expect a good deal on you, but I'll expect that you can be a great decoy." Florian just let out another sigh. He can not be distracted despite how the girl keeps on insulting him.
Yeah, he knows it himself that he is weak.
Klien, on the other hand, is watching the small girl making a smoke. Like how the rest of them, she is also weak. She can produce a smoke but it was so little that the smoke will just be trapped on top of the dungeon and won't even be enough to lead them the way.
He places his eyes on where he left Florian earlier. The spider is near, and they might need to fight it to survive. He saw how ready Florian was. Klien did not know why, on why he was so ready yet he was just frozen when the three of their teammates get injured.
Who is the real Florian?
"What are you trying to be? A hero?" Florian asked.
"Nope." The girl said while she fixed her ponytail tighter than what it was. She can not let her hair ruin her hunt.
"Then why are you here? Aren't you weak as well?"
"Who says I am weak?" The girl laugh on what Florian said. Just who says she is weak?
Florian drops his eyes on the girl for a second and brings it back to the spider and says, "Then why are you here?"
"Oh, I just join for fun..." she got interrupted when Florian's dull sword reached her position. She was in shock, not because of his dull blade than might be so impossible to cut her, but on how it sacrifices his sword to get hit by a web inside of it hitting her.
'Such a fast reflex,' she said to herself.
"What was fun? Killing monsters or watching students struggles because they are weak?" She cut the web using her axe. Never she thought that she will be given a chance to hear such a serious tone of voice to such a weakling who is facing a monster.
Well, cause usually... they tremble in fear.
"Hmm... anything you would like to think. I do not mind." She smirked at him before leaving him behind. Moving her feet forward to where the spider was.
She inhales some air and release it. Web shoots in the mouth of the spider. It was really a monster. Just when can a spider shoot a web in their mouth? But, she wasn't satisfied by just cutting web and preventing it from hitting the other students. What she wants is to cut its body and sees its blood.
She jumped from where she was standing as the spider wants to hit her feet and trapped it in the floor. There was no way she would let that to happen, not when she was enjoying the spider.
Florian watched how the girl moved. It was like her body was one with the air. She kept on jumping, even tumbling her body just to not let the web hit her. While he was the one to hit some web that passes on her.
But staying in his position won't to him good. It won't make his sword change its mind, cutting web won't make him stronger.
With a full determination, Florian moved his feet towards the spider. Following the girl he doesn't even know. The girl look at him and a tiny smile formed on her lips, 'he wasn't that much bad' she said to herself.
"Guide me, I'll take a blow on his body so protect me from its web!" she command as she was running faster to get near the head of the spider. Florian followed the girl, she was running so fast that makes it was hard for Florian to follow and she wants to be protected on its web when he can't even surpass her.
He keeps on running while dodging every web that might hit him. He drops his eyes on his sword. It might not be able to create a clean cut on the spider, but he just hope that it can still cut the spider.
The girl already reached the legs of the spider. As it was slowly climbing, to not make it notice her and to just make the spider focus its attention on him.
Klien becomes anxious as they are creating so little smoke. He saw how Florian charge with a girl. Can they leave this dungeon? He just wants to stay in his room at the palace, where maid comes running in when he called them to bring him food. And now, he's hungry.
"The smoke goes behind the spider..." on student say, they are all shock on how they just wasted efforts on running in here when they might already pass the exit.
"Fight those who can fight and run those who can run. Distract the spider while some are escaping. Your safety is our priority." All nod on what the student council speech.
All the students who are quite confident in their skills and power ready themselves to battle the monster. While those who know that they will just die if they battle the monster gather up, so it will be easier to run.
"Someone is already distracting the spider..." the student council says to himself. But some students hear him and all of them drop their eyes on Florian - who's the only one they can see cause the girl in now on the spider body hiding on its hair to reach the head.
"Protect those who can not fight. We can not be sure on how a monster attacks." They all nod their head as they create a circle. Those inside the circle are those who's impossible to save protect themselves and those who are outside the circle are those who will protect the others.
"Let's go."
