Unknown Change?

We continued to make our way deeper inside the cave, we traverse through a narrowed passageway. The path was completely shrouded in dense darkness making it difficult to see what lies ahead. For roughly 20 minutes only the sound of everyone's footsteps along with the sound of faint breathing sounded.

"Nikita, do you smell anything strange?"

I looked over my shoulders at Nikita who was walking one step behind me. Hearing my sudden question Nikita's adorable well shaped nose twitch slightly as she smelled the scent in the atmosphere.

"Unfortunately, I do not."

She answered.

"I see..."

I guess this means were going in blind, while I personally don't like to leave things up to chances, I guess there isn't much choice when we considered the situation.

"By the way, Ben, how far did you and that old man from before get until, you were both chase by that snake?"

Alya asked, while looking at Ben. When suddenly being addressed his gazed turned to Alya who was walking right next to him. Though, Alya perfectly blended with the murky darkness around her making it difficult to see her expression.

"Honestly I'm not sure, back then we didn't have any kind of light source so, we had to wonder around blindly for days. And the next thing I knew we were being chase by that serpent."

He explained with a thoughtful expression.

".... I see, well I guess we'll have to go deeper."

Alya said in a casual tone. No one spoke after that the darkness regained its silence. I used the flare to carefully observe the sturdy walls of the cave. While I was looking at it, I notice the walls didn't seem to be made naturally.

(This cave, could it be that it was constructed by the hands of humans?)

I wondered as I observed the walls, I found a spot in the wall that had a giant hole and tried to touch that part when suddenly-

"!?"

Four red glowing eyes dimly lit up the darkness, I instinctively leapt away from that spot, a leg that resembles a spear stretched out attempting to pierce my chest but, I twisted my body to the right evading the attack.

A four-eyed spider with blue skin and a body that measured over 20 cm in size came jumping out.

"Wha-what is that?"

Ben asked nervously, gazing at the spider like creature that came out of the darkness.

"It's a red eyed spider, be careful they are also among the most poisonous monsters in this world."

Alya warned sternly. At that Nikita stepped forward while cracking her knuckles with a small grin on her face.

"Leave this to me!"

She said before dashing towards the four eyed spider, she held up her fist which was coated with lightning crackling around it attempting to punch the spider but, at a speed unsuited for its large size the spider instantly moved behind Nikita's back.

"Wha?"

"?!"

Nikita's crimson eyes widened as she tried to promptly turn her body around but, before she could even move the four-eyed spider shot out a thick string of web towards her from behind.

"Guh."

Nikita's body was sent flying forwards as she was stuck to a small boulder that was roughly ten meters tall.

"Tch."

Nikita took advantage of her monstrous strength to break free but, before she could escape the four-eyed spider closed in on her from the front with great speed and agility. Sh*t not good I thought as I promptly moved to protect Nikita.

"Mother of fire burn my target, flare ball!"

A magic formation was formed before my outstretched palm as a ball of flame measuring 10 meters in diameter went into the direction of the four-eyed spider, sensing the attack coming its way the four-eyed spider abruptly moved its large body to the left dodging the fire attack coming its way.

"Che, hey, Alya do you mind giving me a hand?"

I asked looking at Alya who was watching the situation calmly as though it was none of her business.

"Ah, yeah I forgot to tell you.... remember when I fought that black serpent outside some time ago? I actually used up all my magical power, anymore and I won't be able to maintain my physical form."

Alya informed with an apologetic expression. Oh, I see... so that's why she didn't used any attack yet it's not because she was lazy but that she couldn't. At that my mouth corners twitch. I guess I'll have to do this myself but, well it doesn't matter. It will be good experience anyway.

"I'll join you once I have recovered enough magical power."

Alya said with a serious face, I briefly turned my head to her and nodded my head before running off.

"Mother of wind slice my target, wind blade!"

A magic formation illuminated the murky darkness as the wind became restless, three wind in the form of blade went straight towards the four-eyed spider but, using its incredible speed the four-eyed spider instantly moved evading the blade of wind. The four-eyed spider slowly closed the distance between us attacking me using its thick web.

"Tch."

"What a pain in the ass."

I said in annoyance as I unsheathed my sword cutting down the thick string of web coming my way, I moved my body nimbly while lightly evading the string of web while swinging my sword to cut down the ones that are too fast to dodge. The four-eyed spider used its eight legs to attack attempting to pierce my body but, I instantly moved the parts of my body that was attacked while stepping back to gain some distance between us.

Swoosh!

The four-eyed spider moved its long legs to strike my four limbs the feeling of death instantly course through my mind as I desperately tried to move my body. However-

"Gah!"

My face grimaced as I felt a burning sensation in my chest, when I turned my gazed downward to the place where I felt that sensation my eyes widened. The front leg of the four-eyed spider had pierced through my chest fresh blood stained my black coat.

"Haruto!"

"Master!"

The voices of both Alya and Nikita overlapped, damn it, it really hurt! My thought slowly faded as my vision became slightly blurry. I spat out a mouthful of blood while using my hand to gently hold onto the place where my blood flowed constantly. I gritted my teeth enduring the stinging sensation from my body as I tried to move but-

Swoosh! Swoosh!

"Argh!"

The four-eyed spider moved two of its leg instantly piercing both my right and left arms, my face turned pale as I was unable to move my arms anymore.

(So, this is how I die. Huh? guess I won't have to worry about the future of anymore but-)

My vision instantly faded as my thoughts came to a screeching halt. The last thing I felt before losing consciousness was two soft but warm hands gently embracing me from behind.

***

Before Haruto fell completely unconscious Alya instantly appeared behind him and pulled him from behind. His chest and arms that were pierced sprayed out blood once his body was separated from the four-eyed spider. The four-eyed spider moved swiftly towards Alya who was holding the unconscious Haruto in her embrace seeing the four-eyed spider slowly closing in on her, Alya's brow furrowed in annoyance. However, before the four-eyed spider could even attack a circular wall of ice appeared around Alya and Haruto as if to protect them.

Alya turned her emerald eyes towards the silver haired demi human woman who was standing on top of a giant bolder that easily measured a mass of 30 meter. Nikita's crimson eyes were filled with fury as she watched the four-eyed spider.

"Alya I'm leaving master to you."

Nikita said turning her crimson eyes at Alya, Alya's emerald eyes met with her crimson eyes and widened slightly. It was obvious to Alya that Nikita was truly angry as the dense killing intent around her was like a beast that was about to devour a pray that had foolishly angered a lioness.

"Yes, please leave it to me."

Alya said with a serious face, even if Nikita hadn't said anything she wasn't going to let anyone harm Haruto after all she had made a promise to that "Person" after all. Alya hurriedly tried to heal Haruto since he was stabbed with the legs of the four-eyed spider she had to heal him before the poison from the spider take effect. With Haruto now secured Nikita narrowed her crimson eyes dangerously at the four-eyed spider, her nine-silver fox tails swayed behind her back, she then held out her snow-white hand.

Instantly swords and spears made of ice materialize in the sky they each turned their trajectory towards the four-eyed spider waiting to pierce its body at any moment. The eyes of Nikita were laced with killing intent as she uttered coldly.

"Now die."

At that the swords and spears instantly shot forward like an arrow towards the body of the four-eyed spider. The red eyes of the four-eyed spider glowed faintly as it observed the many ice swords and ice spears coming at it in every possible angle, the four-eyed spider then shot out a thick thread of web that formed a protective shield around its giant body.

Once the swords and spears made contact with the sticky webs, they instantly lost their momentum as they got stuck and intertwine with the web.

Seeing that Nikita covered her body with raging lightning and charged towards the four-eyed spider using the momentum of her fall to punch the spider's giant body.

"Haaah!"

Nikita slipped through the gaps between the four-eyed spiders web and landed her dainty fist clad with crackling lightning onto its giant body.

BANG!!! BOOM!!!

A loud explosion sounded as the body of the four-eyed spider was sent flying before crashing heavily onto the ground. A large crater of 20 meter in diameter was created underneath its body. The cave shook as small cracks started to appear on the sturdy walls of the cave.

"Highhh!!!"

The four-eyed spider cried as its thick skin was punched through but, Nikita didn't stop there, she thrust both her fist and landed several blows onto its body.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The crater underneath its body grew more in size with each of her punch. For what seem like an eternity the cave was filled with the loud sound of the four-eyed spider's cry as well as the explosive sounds of the groundbreaking apart.

Meanwhile inside the wall of ice, Haruto's face was extremely pale as beads of sweat trickled down his face.

"Haruto, please don't die."

Alya brushed Haruto's silky black hair as she desperately tried to heal him using spirit art, his body was covered with a faint green light that slowly healed his wounded body but, his breathing was rather rough, and his face was squinting as though he was enduring the most painful wound.

Watching from the side was Ben who had a pained expression on his face.

(What should I do?)

A question he had asked himself many times now but, no matter how much he questioned himself he couldn't find an answer, he closed his fist as he sighed quietly.

Alya's face was extremely closed to Haruto's as she gently places her forehead on his own, her soft green hair gently brushes against his face. The faint green light that covered his body slowly faded.

"No good I'm running out of magical power."

Alya muttered with a despairing expression. Without even thinking twice Alya instantly placed her soft glossy lips against Haruto's. In order to restore her mana, she needed to replenish it directly from Haruto, either by physical contact or allowing him to transfer it directly. With his current condition she had no choice but to take it directly from him.

Once she had enough magical power, she once again started healing him. His pale face slowly started to regain a little of its color.

Thump~ Thump~ Thump~

While Alya was treating Haruto she was unaware but, something miraculous was happening inside Haruto's body, the 'God core' that had been silent for so long showed signs of change.
