Chapter 44 - Sho

I had accepted my fate, knowing I would end up like those before—stuck in the webs or falling into the chasms. I was as good as dead, unable to help. I sighed to myself.

Ha, who would have thought this is how I die?

"No," I whispered. "Please," I prayed. "Someone... someone save me... save us. I don't need to be strong. And in truth, I don't want to be. I just want to live happily."

Just as the Spider Queen prepared to strike, a loud, echoing sound rang out from above, growing louder and closer. The Spider Queen paused, looking up, sensing something was approaching.

Then, the cavern split open.

A female figure descended from above like a bolt of lightning, landing directly on the Spider Queen's back with a force that shook the ground. The infamous figure— Sho.

Sho, the rank 1 player, known for her mastery of wind magic. Her grey hair and red eyes were unmistakable.

With a determined look in her eyes, Sho landed gracefully on top of the Spider Queen, her cloak swirling around her like a storm. Her dark armor blended with the shadows of the cavern, making her presence feel like a harbinger of death.

The Queen laughed, raising one of her legs to strike at Sho, but Sho landed gracefully beside me, unharmed.

The Queen unleashed a barrage of spells—blades of shadow, venom, and death. 

But the wind refused her.

Spells broke apart mid-air, minions shattered before reaching their target.

With a single motion, Sho raised her hand, and just a single command left her mouth.

"Die_" 

And the Queen obeyed.
