I moved to a spring in the Yellow Ossa Mountains, and what I saw was a bunch of fireflies. My God, I've never seen them before. It's a sight to behold.

Watching the fireflies as I collect them in Setia and Mir. When I was checking my surroundings, I found something I wasn't expecting.

Wasabi (Wasabi): Rare Level 4 Food Item Quality D-
A grass with a strong, pungent flavor. You can eat it for food.

Ahhhh, I want to eat soba noodles even more now that I've seen wasabi! Wasabi is also used in sashimi and meat dishes, and vegetables are used in pickles.

It is a joy to see. After collecting the food, I am grateful to nature.

Now, let's go exploring. The members are Noah, Livina, Gail, Aranea, and Fuchsia.

As we walk through the forest, the fox cubes detect something. Then we hear a unique sound of wings.

An elephant elephant beetle?
?　?　?

It was an elephant-sized beetle that appeared as it fell over the tree. I'm not surprised by this size anymore.

And Aranea, we were lucky to come when the fox cub was there.

First, Nowa stopped the movement with a shadow binding. Then Aranea's hard thread restrains him and we all beat him up.

But in the middle of the process, the hard thread breaks and they start to flail about.

''You're in a bad way~. What do we do now?　Tact.

...turn into a pseudo-dragon?

No, it's a waste of time. Let's just go in there and force it.

Then Gail sits down in front of me.

Gaw!

I have a feeling Gail is saying I'll do it.

"Okay. Gail, you're in charge.

Gale glared at the Elephant Elephant Beetle and shouted.

''Gaaaah!!!''

Then Gale becomes lightning incarnate. So this is lightning incarnation!

In the next moment, a huge thunderbolt pierces the Elephant Elephant Elephant Beetle. Although not paralyzing, the lightning bounced back as if it was reflecting off a tree and pierced the Elephant Elephant Kabuto.

It was already Gale's own game from there. The Elephant Elephant Beetle attacked desperately, but it had no effect on Gale, who was turned into lightning, and continued to be pierced by the giant lightning until it was defeated.

''Gaaaah!''

Gail rides the Elephant Elephant Beetle and screams in victory. Then Gale comes over here.

'That was awesome. Gail.

Hmm... He's strong.

And it was beautiful!

Gale didn't seem to be full of praise from everyone. But thunderization was the same price as dragonization. It's just that he's so strong. It may have been a waste of time... but it's worth it. Info is coming.

'Aranea's level has reached 16. You are ready to evolve.
'The fox cub has reached level 16. You can evolve.''

Let's start with Aranea. There's only one place to evolve to.

Earth spider.

Ah, the famous yokai from the story of Minamoto no Yorimitsu's spider-cutting.

A spider tried to attack Minamoto Yorimitsu who was sick in bed, but he was cut down by the famous sword Hizamaru, and chased the escaping spider up the mountain. Minamoto Yorimitsu was cured of his illness after killing the spider, and Hizamaru, who killed the spider, was called "KUMO-KIRI" (Spider Cutter).

I don't know if it's true or not, but I've heard that he lived in Mount Katsuragi in Nara Prefecture. Let's have a look at the explanation.

The Tsuchigumo, a huge spider youkai that lived in a cave in the mountains. They are very violent, but they are also very clever at trapping people. It uses powerful threads and throws rocks and other objects away with its strength.

Let's make it evolve.

Name: Aranea Large Spider Lvv16 -> Earth Spider Lvv1

Life force 34 to 44.
Magic power 28 to 43.
Strength 25 to 40.
Defensive value 15 to 25.
Agility 20 to 30
Dexterous value 66 to 71.

Biting Lv 6 Fighting Lv 1 Viscous thread Lv 13 -> Adhesive thread Lv 13 Soft thread Lv 8　
Hard yarn Lv18→steel yarn Lv18 Trap setting Lv15→Lv18 Thread detection Lv6 Poison breath Lv1　
Earth hiding Lv 1 throwing Lv 1 earth magic Lv 1 earth magic Lv 1 curse Lv 1 sorcery Lv 1

The evolved Aranea became a giant spider with the face of an ogre.

Is the focus of attention on the threads? It used to be hard thread, but now that it's steel thread, let's see how it's changed. The steel thread spat out of his mouth and pierced the wood...yes. If you use it on a human being, the human body will be torn apart.

The other sticky thread could be used for traps, but it could be flown farther away and the force of the rewind made it possible for wire action. I'd like to give Aranea the title of ____Piederman.

Just saying that, Aranea used a change. You've changed on me! But it wasn't.

There was a girl in front of me who looked like a Japanese doll. Wait a minute... why would he turn into a girl?

Later I looked up the legend of the earth spider turning into a woman. Still, it wasn't a description of how it turned into a young girl. I'd have to discuss with Aranea why it had turned into a young girl.


Next up is the fox kid. One place to evolve to.

A fox.

You're talking about the fox specter. Let's take a look at the description.

A fox...a fox that awakens to witchcraft and becomes a youkai. It disguises itself as a human and seduces people. It has the ability to control both the fire and dark attributes.

Hmmm, let's make it evolve.

The evolved fox cub has three tails and his body has grown to grey size.

As soon as he was shown his abilities, the fox child used a change. Then the one that appeared was Ion.

However, he had fox ears on his head, three tails from his hips, his chest was the size of a Japanese fox, and he was sweating on his floppy kimono. 'Fox-ko, you've grown into a terrifying fellow!

Phew....time to go home.

"...upset?

What are Nowa and Livina saying? How could I possibly be upset?

The evolution is done, so we'll take it apart.

It wasn't anything... there was an evolution, and that's okay.

But I'd like to know what the evolved Aranea and Foxxo are capable of, so I'm not going to end up with this. So, that's why
I decided to move forward in the forest.
