Iris' eyes turned red as she pounced towards the largest spider demon, aiming for its head. However, as soon as her blade touched its skin, it sounded like she had hit a metallic surface.
The spider demon laughed, taunting Iris for her futile attempt to harm it. The spider demon's laughter echoed through the forest, annoyed Iris. If she cannot deal with a single spider demon, how can she hope to defeat any other powerful foes?

Meanwhile, Chrysanthe cast a protective spell on the three of them, lowering their chances of being harmed in battle. She might not be as versed in combat and strategy as Iris, but her magical abilities were a valuable asset to their team.
