40 RUINED WORLD [5] Forgotten Trauma
'Fighting the monster is a big risk, we couldn't guarantee our win.'
Poison Variant Arachne, a monster term as a walking disaster similar to necromancer, it possessed both power and intellect.
Necromancer on the other is feared due to its army.
Poison Variant Arachne aside is feared due to its raw power and vicious poison.
Erica didn't have an idea of what the monster in front of them we're.
The Poison Variant Arachne isn't so famous at only a single sighting of such monster has been recorded in history.
People thought that the monster is nothing but a mutated spider type creature.
So, they didn't bother placing the monster in textbooks.
'Ho-how can that monster exist, this can't be real, this must be a dream. Yeah, this definitely a dream.
Teacher Anna, mumbled her eyes wide open, she couldn't stop herself from trembling.
Second passed by her heartbeat rapidly increase, her clothes are too drenched as she sweat drip non-stop.
Erica, noticing this strange behavior and symptoms of teacher Anna, a thought come into her mind.
'Traumatize…'
Thirty-five years ago.
In a small village located beneath the previous mount Matutum.
A volcano one's located approximately 5.7 kilometers from Acmonan, Tupi, South Cotabato, Philippines.
Now turned into the so-called Great New Matutum Volcano.
People termed the volcano great due to its abundant blessings of flame ore.
Flame ore unique crystallized lava that been refined for thousands of years, it can be used in improving one's Yin cultivation for martial warriors and fire attributed power for mages.
Flame ore is also a famous concoction used for enhancing technological weaponizes increasing their firepower a dozen times.
Ten kilometers under the mountain region, a deep natural cave is located and inside this cave an unexplored purple dimensional gate is wide open.
The entire cave is already filled with numerous monsters that has the power to flatten an entire city in a day.
Anna Roldan, a bright seven-year-old little girl.
She lived with her family in this small mining city built to excavate the sought flame ore.
Anna is a smart and talented girl possessing two powerful traits since born.
Her parents hide this fact wanting to avoid attention, aiming to live a normal peaceful life.
However, fate has other plans installed for the young girl.
The family happily eating for their morning breakfast we're suddenly startled.
A loud alarm sounded echoing throughout the entire city.
The alarm signifies a single thing "monsters and beast" everyone is in a panic immediately rushed to the opposite direction out trying to escape the horde of monsters.
The attackers we're insect type monster "spiders" they shoot poison and sticky strings neutralizing their prey trying to capture them.
Anna and her parents tried to escape but was unfortunate caught the moment they've exited their house.
She woke up and found herself tied up in sticky web.
Spiders there and there passed through her dragging more and more people from the outside.
The spiders were twice as big as a dog but more agile compare to a cat.
These monsters can freely walk through walls and ceilings and while in such places their speed increases twice compare to when their walking on the ground.
She woke up, surrounded by numerous spider monsters. Roaming around.
Just as she woke up, out of shock, she lost consciousness.
For a young seven-year-old girl finding herself in a place filled with monsters, her reaction is normal.
Two hours later she regained her consciousness, yet as she opened her eyes nine eyes directly stared at her.
Compare to the 128 centimeter spiders, the nine eyes directly looking at her has twice that length.
She about to lost consciousness again but as her gaze looked down, she saw a familiar bracelet on a hand that's on the monster's mouth.
Realizing something, being a smart girl her world turned upside down.
She immediately recognized the bracelet, it's the bracelet she made herself as a gift she gave during her mother's birthday a month ago.
Gulp…
The monster swallowed the remaining hand whole, the bracelet dropped to the ground.
Anna was about to lose her mind.
The monster bare its fangs opening its mouth trying to eat her next.
As the large mouth near her, to her perspective time seemed to have slow down.
She kept looking back at the monster's large mouth and the bracelet that fell onto the ground.
Then a sudden surge of power erupted inside her.
Her trait [Light Strings] suddenly evolved into [Fate Strings]
A trait evolution happened to a little girl that has yet to even try her trait.
The [Fate Strings] shoot straight to the spider's mouth tearing the inside mouth.
An ear-piercing cry reverberated.
The sticky web that immobile her body got cut.
The monster kept squirming rampaging around as its inside was torn apart.
The little Anna felt fear yet her eyes we're fierce.
Unconscious, she perfectly control her [Fate Strings] around attacking the rampaging monster, directing the attack onto the eyes of the monster.
The large eyes that glisten like a gem were easily torn apart in front of Anna's [Fate Strings].
The monster run to the opposite direction, rampaging around as it couldn't see a thing.
The place it left is the farthermost inner area of the cave where the dimensional gate is located.
The giant blinded spider run amok rampaging around destroying anything it passed through.
The other monsters that blocked its path we're either crashed to death or injured severely.
The scene was devastating for the monsters who encounter the rampaging fatty spider.
The young Anna looked at the bracelet crying heavily.
On the side, she saw her fathers body that turned into green.
She quickly check for the pulse just to let out a cry confirming that her father had died due to poison.
She held the bracelet on her hands, an injured spider show up.
She waves her hand, the [Fate Strings] cut the injured spider into pieces.
Her eye's we're bloodshot.
She exited the room where she was held and started a slaughter, killing the remaining injured spiders.
Her trait [Blood Path] triggered an evolution turning into [Blood Slaughter]
She's the very first case of a human awakening two traits to have them evolved at the same day.
