[Please determine the exit point of the Spiderwebs]

'Fucking hell that was a lot of vermin to deal with.' The Paru let out a sigh before turning his gaze towards where he perceived the bed to be.

Heat Vision-

'Still asleep, good. A freaking war took place, but that has nothing to do with those outside these ducts.' Rei thought with an internal chuckle. 'Alright, let's see about these skills…'

The Paru decided for the exit point of the Spiderwebs to be its mouth, as having it at the back like spiders do would be… Uncomfortable, he assumed.

Making it the mouth wasn't feasible, so the System made it just below the mouth. It was also connected to the throat. Among other things, this made it feel as close as it could to spitting.

'Now that those are dealt with…' 

Rei's gaze was stuck on the beauty whose body could only be seen through Heat Vision. 

Gulp-

The Paru walked down the duct until he arrived at the opening. 

Now, Rei only needed to insert his sharp limbs into small holes that made up the fence, and pull it into the duct. After that, the way would be open. He would be inside the room.

'Just… One step… One step left…' The Paru's sharp limbs started moving towards the fence, but they stopped before going through its holes.

Instead, the Paru turned away.

'Let's close this up. If those rats, spiders, and insects end up coming into the room afterward… That'll cause trouble.'

Using his newly-acquired "Spiderweb Production" Skill, Rei sealed the ventilation duct from the right and left of the opening he was in front of. 

'This should be thick enough not to let them in. At least, I'll realize they're here thanks to these webs. Spitting for ten minutes straight was annoying, but it wasn't tiring. A high Endurance Stat really is the best…' 

Rei's anticipation had partly turned into slight anxiety.

Gulp-

'Let's go for it…'

The Paru's legs managed to pull out the rectangular fence rather easily.

It placed the fence on the inside of the duct.

'Let's put some webs in here. They're sticky so…'

Spiderwebs were placed on the edges of the opening, so that putting the fence back could be done with ease. Even doing so hurriedly would be enough, as it would stick to the spiderwebs instead of falling off.

With another gulp, Rei walked to the opening. 

Invisibility-

Even though it was dark within the room and the beauty was asleep, he felt this was necessary. If not to keep his presence from being noticed, then, at least, to make him feel more at ease.

'What am I… Even going in here for?' He could feel his breath go heavier. 

The air within the room was warm. The ventilation ducts he had been through weren't the spaceship's means of regulating temperature.

'This is too fucking strange. I can't go into a woman's… But she's an alien so who cares? And I'm an alien too so… Yeah, no. That doesn't change anything. But I…' The Paru's front limbs passed through the opening. 'Can't stop myself from going in.'

Night Vision-

Rei concentrated on his hearing right away. He wanted to make sure that his steps and numerous limbs weren't making any noise as they came into contact with the ground.

But instead of those, all that his sense of hearing could focus on was…

'...'

The sound of her breathing.

"Mmm…" She turned away, facing the wall. 

The Paru's whole body was through the wall. 

To Rei's left, a large cupboard. Beyond that cupboard, the bed. Her bed.

The Paru turned towards her, and it feared that its breathing would wake her up. The Paru reluctantly turned away, trying to calm its nerves. A second later, it started walking towards the desk on the other side of the room while remaining far away from the door, fearing that it would open automatically.

Rei had moved towards the desk after noticing the clothes she had discarded earlier.

He made the coat on that desk move with his tentacle-like limb.

[Roka]

'So the commander has a name…' The Paru could feel its tentacle limbs shiver each time they made her coat move. 

"Wwwaaaaa…" A sudden long yawn. It made the Paru's body freeze.

Rei turned around.

'...!'

She was looking straight at him. 

With her right cheek against the pillow, her left eye was locked on him.

'Fuck…!'
