130 chapter 31

"Alright, I hope everyone is ready, we're going to kill the spider queen Nephila Regina!" Diavel declared loudly to all the well-rested and feed players that were in front of him.

To which all of them had a dead serious expression plastered on there face, as most of them just wanted to end this quickly and go back to town.

"Alright let move in!- team B of the tank group, make ways- we are pushing in! Leonard I need your expertise in this part, vaporize all of them!" Diavel shouted out to Leonard who was readying his sword to unleash another blast of [Demon Wrath] into the hole that was filled with an innumerable amount of creepy crawlers.

"You DON'T have to ask! They're as good as dead now move out of the way!" Leonard shouted out as his rage was unbearable.

"Move move move if you don't want to die!" seeing Leonard pulling out his ultimate boss slayer move, Diavel quickly tell the tanks to get out of the hole entrance quickly.

"DIE!!!" Leonard then brought down the energy blade at the entrance of the cave and blasted out a beam of dark energy into the cave.

*Booom!!! The power from the blade created a small earthquake in the vicinity was it hit the intended target within the cave.

After the energy vaporized all the unfortunate creepy crawlers that were in the cave, Leonard was informed that he had leveled twice in that process and he's now at level 17.

"Damn...just how many of them are there! That was two whole freaking level?!" Leonard cursed out loudly after he received the notification message.

All the other players too had a cold chill crept down their spine as they heard Leonard curses.

They all know how much of a pain it is to level up, and within one attack of Leonard into the mouth of the cave and he already raised his level twice.

"Alright! Let move it! The sooner we kill off that thing, the sooner we can get the hell out of here!" Kibaou raised his sword high up in the air and jumped down the hole and ran off deeper inside, seeing Kibaou leading a reckless charge, Diavel also informed the rest of the players to follow suit and pushed deeper inside, including that of Leonard group (Kirito and Asuna included) and that of Klein.

Of course, Leonard was the last to jump down the dark entrance of the cave.

*****

Inside the deep and dark tunnel.

Kirito was holding a torch and leading the way to the rest of the players that was behind him and try to catch up with the main party that leads the charge deeper inside.

"...umm...Klein are you ok?...your walking posture...is erm…" Kirito glanced at Klein with a pained expression on his own face.

"...I feel so dead inside...try to remind me not to piss "HIM" off in the future...I still want to find myself a wife and have children…" Klein replied to Kirito as he continued to wobble back and forth, his leg felt like jelly and glass.

"...your fault for throwing him into a horde of spiderling," Kirito smirked at the listless Samurai.

"You totally deserve that...do that shit again...and I'll make sure a [Demon Wrath] landed right on your family jewels." Leonard had a smile on his face- however, his tone of voice was anything BUT family friendly.

"Yes, sir! Won't happen again! I swear on it!" Klein replied as his back straightened up.

"So, who these guys behind you Leonard?" Kirito noticed the groups of player that had been following Leonard closely and couldn't help but ask.

"Oh- they're my guildmate," Leonard replied to the teenager.

"Guildmate?! I thought we were bros, man! And what's with the girl?! Why is she so nice and close to you?!" Kirito quickly stopped in his track and handed the torch to Klein to lead the way while rushed back and placed his arm around Leonard's neck and muttered in a low tone.

"We're still bro, I was asking if you and Asuna would like to join as well, these guys are fun to hang around with...oh and the girl? Erm...it's complicated ok? And don't you have Asuna? Why are you acting like this my name?" Leonard pulled a smug looking face at Kirito.

"Ermm...that's complicated too... sometimes she beat me up a lot...other time she's so nice…" Kirito replied as he scratched his cheek with his finger.

"Heh? I see I see…." Leonard then glanced at Asuna who was chatting with Sachi near the back of the group, it was then that Klein stopped in his track.

"We're here guys," he told them as he pointed his finger at the group of players that was lead by Diavel and Kibaou was hiding behind a large rock and occasionally glanced behind it, only to see a giant spider the size of a small house sleeping.

"Oh damn...that one is huge...no wonder it had so many babies coming out of the hole, trying to eat us." Leonard upon seeing the giant spider Nephila Regina couldn't help but commenting on the sheer size of the creature.

They then quickly put out the torch and joined up with the Diavel and the other, where they discuss their plan on how to take down a creature with that sheer size and magnitude.

"Alright...this is how it's going to play out." Diavel put down a large stone in front of a handful of small pebbles.

"This here represents the boss, and this here is us...as that thing was literally too big for one or just a group of people to tank, we will go with this strategy here."

He then pointed a few small pebbles on the side.

"A small band of players will be handed the position of distracting the thing...also known as being bait, while the other group will be responsible for dealing damages, so in total we need to split our archers into two group, each responsible for pulling the boss attention when needed- also include in a tank for each group just for safety measure," Diavel told them.

"Any question?" Diavel asked them one last time as he finished up his strategy explanation.

Seeing that no one objected to his plan, he quickly to tell the archer to get into positions along with a tank in the group as well.

After they all got to their respective position, Diavel message all of them and give the players one last encouragement to boost their morale before the fight begins.

"Alright, is everyone ready? We will hit and fast and hard! Kill it so we can get the hell out of here! now….ATTACK!!!" he then roared out.

Arrows and bolt sprang out from their respective weapon and headed toward the sleeping giant that was at the center of the room, puncturing its abdomen.

"zzzzssshhhhhH!!!!!" the giant spider wailed and chased one of the groups that shot the arrow that penetrated its carapace.

Unbeknown to the giant spider monster, another group of players was waiting for the creature to exposed it back to them, and among that group of player, the bane of spider was lurking within, waiting for that opportunity to destroy the mother of all spider- and from then on, he will be known as the hater of all spider.
