Just after leveling to Level 28 and recovering all my Mana anew, a gigantic spider emerged from within the burnt trees, rushing from within the temple far away, its footsteps were like tremors!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

"GGGRRYYYSSSHAAAAAAA…!!!"

This spider looked way more like a crab than a spider, unlike its little siblings, it had all of its purple flesh covered by a chitinous carapace of purple colors, exuding a metallic and shiny luster!

It even had two large pincers, eight crimson eyes, a gigantic jaw filled with fangs, and its entire body was covered in spikes!

"A Boss?!" asked Kireina in shock, as the other spiders were already beginning to lower in numbers, and we were slaying the last ones with her, Cuco, and everyone else spread around the house.

"Hmmm… That Carapace could be a nice material to upgrade my weapon and equipment. Alright, let's kill it! Everyone, regroup!" I said, as everyone immediately obeyed me, flying towards my side after having made sure that the other smaller spiders within their area were slain!

"Finally a bit of a challenge…" said Ervas.

"Alright then, let's wreck it!" said Anna, raising her thundering axe.

"I brought my golems, papa!" said Vudia, as her golems landed right next to her after coming flying through the air thanks to Ervas [Flight].

The Golden Viper and the Queen Bee also rushed at our side, as we flew over the air and immediately began to attack this creature!

…

[Poisonous Armored Flesh Spider Queen: Existence Rank: D-Grade]

The Queen of the Poisonous Flesh Spiders, known to have a strong, near-impenetrable carapace, and powerful claws and jaws that can tear apart anyone below D-Grade while dealing great damage to anything within D-Grade. A beast originating from Another Dimension, within a world named Glarakh, where many types of grotesque beasts roam the planet.

…

And it's D-Grade! Well, I am also D-Grade, so this is pretty fitting… And it even got some info about another world and other things, which opens up for the lore of the creature.

Very interesting…

No, wait, we are in the middle of a battle!

"GRRRYYYAARR!"

The gigantic Spider Queen roars, as we fly behind it and rain it with long-ranged attacks.

Kireina fired her Blood Blades, slowly beginning to crack the carapace of the beast as tender flesh below emerges.

Ervas quickly unleashed a barrage of Telekinesis Bullets while controlling the Trees all around us, making the Boss have a hard time walking around and changing direction towards us.

Anna used her axe infused with thunder to crush one of the Boss' front legs, making it crack into pieces.

Vudia used her two gold golems to fight, although they were squashed pretty easily because gold is not really a resistant metal… But she simply fused them, added her own gold into the mix, and made a snake golem, entangling another of the legs of the beast, while releasing thunderbolts at it from above.

Meanwhile, Cuco led the two other monsters, who rained the beast from afar with small, long-ranged attacks, while occasionally biting its weakened legs or the ones where flesh was exposed.

Meanwhile, I opened wounds for everyone else to slash and tear apart the flesh, using the explosive mana bullets to crack the shell and then using fireball and gust to burn the flesh below, making the shell become frail.

The monster, however, was resilient, and it began to spray poison all around while rolling through the ground!

SPLASH!

I told Ervas to generate barriers of Telekinesis, which he swiftly did, protecting most of us from the corrosive poison, while Kireina unleashed her Nyarlathotep Skill, suddenly expanding her body all around and becoming a mass of fleshy, red-colored tentacles with many jaws and eyes spread across her body.

She did this so the Boss was to stop running around annoyingly, catching it around with her mass of flesh and entangling its legs!

"GRRRYSSHA!"

The beast roared, using its pincers to defend itself from Kireina, beginning to pierce her body with them, but she was able to quickly regenerate.

"How about you stay quiet for a while?!" roared Kireina, using her tentacles and coating them in sharp bones, piercing through the scales of the beast, as it groaned in agony!

Everyone else kept attacking, as I flew down below, coating myself in my Magic Armor as fire and winds began to exude from my equipment like a magical aura!

CLASH!

Using my cane, I coated it with magic and began to pierce through the open wounds Kireina left for me, fiercely penetrating all of its flesh as blood sprayed all over me!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"GGRRYSSHAA…!"

The monster roared angrily, as its pincers almost reached me, but Kireina managed to entangle them and stopped it!

"God on, Master! Annihilate it!" roared Kireina, as I smiled devilishly at her words, piercing the flesh and wounds of the beast with my cane with great strength, and then piercing it deep into a wound!

And as the cane was inside the flesh of the beast, I conjured Fireball and Gust several times, infusing all of the spells inside of the beast!

Fire and winds began to accumulate inside of the creature's body, making it inflate like a balloon!

"GGRRRYYSHAAAAA…!"

We quickly flew away with Kireina and saw the beast explode into pieces, splattering flesh and blood all over the place!

BOOOOOOMMM!!!

Ding!

The Boss was left completely destroyed, and a rush of EXP reached me and everyone else, I reached a max level just after a few hours of the Ragnarök starting, this was clearly insane.

"Whew, it's done! Ah, Master, can I eat some?" asked Kireina.

"Go on, but leave the carapace if possible," I said.

"Alright~!" said Kireina, jumping into the corpse still in her monstrous mass of flesh form, eating the flesh of the creature. Isn't she adorable as her endless flesh gibbers and her monstrous jaws devour anything gluttonously? She was made for me.

She noticed as I saw her eat, and she blushed a bit, I could notice it in her dozens of crimson eyes.

"Master, it seems that everything is mostly peaceful now… The demons have ignored us," said Ervas.

"I see…"

I glance around my surroundings, most of the area around the house was made into a complete flat wasteland…

The army of spiders stopped, and it seems that things are fairly tranquil.

But the temple ahead of us seems to glow mysteriously… if these monsters came from there, maybe we could find even more… It wouldn't be a bad idea to explore it a bit.

Due to all the explosions and shockwaves, most of the sickly, green-colored mist disappeared as well, so we can freely adventure into that purple-colored mutagenic forest and then get to the temple… But maybe we should rest for now.

Let's use this little window of peace to assess our gains, there is a lot of loot I got, and before the corpse of the Boss, a large treasure chest had popped out of thin air, glowing with black, purple, and crimson-red colors… What could it harbor?
