My body moved on its own even before I could consciously realise what was going on.
In my hand, I was already wielding my light blade with my mana infused with it, my sword swinging down in an arc and cutting through the leg of the spider like it was made of paper.
I then picked up Henri who still had his eyes wide in shock before leaping back, retreating from the spider that was shrieking from losing one of its legs.
I laid Henri down gently, my other hand grabbing onto the spider leg that was still embedded partway through his body so that it doesn't do any more damage to him.
"BROTHER!!!" Jules screamed, only to be stopped by Tika.
"Jules!! The monster is still not dead yet!! Turn your back on it and you will compromise everyone's safety! Trust Aster to take care of him and concentrate on your role!!"
