PROLOGUE VI: Accident

AZULA MITSU POV

I have always lived at the edge of life, almost at the falling point before my descent into madness, which would lead to my untimely death, but as I lay in front of the corpse of the queen, my parents' heads in front of me staring soullessly and in a pool of my kind of blood mixed with my tears, what I realized was that I was already falling. Death is a game to this sick bitch, and I'll be next if I don't move. I need to avenge them, and after that, I'll kill my{Hey, you shouldn't give up yet; here, I'll push you in the right direction}

Description: Your parents and home have been stolen from you without a reason; take everything back from them and kill them how you see fit.}

Thanks to that, now my goal is very clear: kill all those involved and strive to become stronger, and I will do it alone. I get up, pick up the twin daggers, and leave with only a tiny bit of cash and some clothes, then walk out of the room without ever looking back. Once I'm outside I'm immediately spotted by a guard, and within a few minutes, the whole of the arachnid kingdom searches for me.

Breaking the hierarchy in this kingdom is asking for death, and I just killed the queen and some soldiers. When I'm just the daughter of a noble in charge of managing workers, I'll be tortured, to say the least, and to top it all off, I'm a humanoid type. These types are rare and are generally disliked type for arachnids, mostly for their human forms and ability to ignore commands, but they are still useful in their speed and versatility, which makes them good hunters.

Due to their inability to listen, they are either killed or put through a harsh obedient training camp to brainwash them so that they are used for combat. My parents didn't like this, so they kept me a secret for 11 years, but all of that went to shit, and it's all because of that bitch.I have made it to the fringes of the kingdom so far without getting caught; the soldiers are still just a few miles behind me. I see three territories I can go to at the edge of the arachnid kingdom: one was a forest with a lot of rocks around it; another was a forest with really tall trees; and the other was a state that was allied with the arachnids. While I'm deciding, I hear crying from nearby, and I pause.

Normal arachnid children cry once they see a humanoid one. I have to act fast. I bring out a glass vile and place paralyzing poison inside, then feed it to the child. The child slowly stops crying, but the other soldiers must have heard that, so I have to move fast. I head into the forest with tall trees and spread my sent and poison everywhere, then I climb into a nearby tree using my daggers and wait near the top. I make sure to make dagger marks on other trees to throw them off, and seeing as they can't stay here to search for long since it's not their territory, I just escape later after they have gone. But then the message appeared: This message is what caused me a lot of pain these next few months, it said.

{You have killed an infant arachnid}

{Exp has been doubled for killing your kind}

{Exp has been tripled due to the killing of an infant}

{You have gained the title Arachnid Hater: 10% more damage to arachnids}

{Your name has spread, you are known as the child killer and are wanted all over the land of Parek}

{You are now level 3}

{You have now gained the skill of web craft}

I slumped against the tree in tears, not knowing what to do. I was now a wanted 11-year-old girl, and I was considered a monster. I sleep off while crying, as it was my only way to escape this hell since the system won't let me kill myself. As I drift off, I wonder what I did to that bitch to make her hate me so much.
