46-Episode 46: This was probably because I was worried




 We went down to the lower levels again and we were finally in front of the fifty layers.

 There was a large doorway there, inscribed with the Ouroboros emblem. This is in Leif's data, but I'm sure of it. It's the same as the third labyrinth. This is the lowest level.

 Leif's data said that the third labyrinth had a similar doorway. After all, the labyrinths might all have a common feature. I'll have to tell Leif's guy about this.

 Thinking about this, we decided to move on.

''It's the lowest level.......at last.
'You've really come this far........'
''We've come to the deepest part of that sixth labyrinth........''

 Then I take the lead and open the big door.

 I open it with a giggling..........and there's a large pillar.

''Is it a pillar?''
It's a big one.
'No, this is...'

 I noticed. That's ... a leg.

"Fee, Monica, look up.
"What?

 Then there was a giant spider, the Huge Spider, but it wasn't attached to the ceiling.

 Yes, the scale was different until now. It was too ... too ... large. Its total length is approaching twenty meters. Big. Too big.

 And this individual exists in the lore. It is the ancient spider, the origin of all the giant spiders, the Ancient Ancient Spider.

 And the Ancient Spider "Ancient Spiders" may have sensed us, and moved their bodies a little bit. We also reacted to it and got into a battle stance, but this guy is also..............watching us, no, me.

 The battle at the 30th layer, the battle at the 40th layer. I can't help but be reminded of those two giant spiders, the Huge Spider.

 It's the same. They are exactly the same. Those eyes........they are the same. But we mustn't notice it, and we mustn't let Fee and Monica notice it. I am the only one who has to do this work.

 That's right. That's what geniuses are for in times like these. I'll take care of everything. Fee and Monica have nothing to do with this. It's just ... they don't need to know that I'm doing things knowingly or knowingly.

 I've come this far, and I'm the one who killed those two bodies.



 I had my hands on them. Fee and Monica are innocent. It was all me, and I did it.


 But don't think about it now. If I kill him, we're going in the Sixth Maze. We can move forward. We can't go back now. It's too late. It's too late. So, my dear boy don't get lost. Remember what Leif said to me.

 Lost is dead. And I can't die yet. I've got a lot of work to do.

 So don't look at me like that.


'Let's go, Fee, Monica!
"Got it!


 And so began the worst battle in the history of the world that could rock my life.

'Whoa, whoa, whoa!

 We'll take the lead and run the ground. Run! Running!

 Then he flew into the air and swung the thin-winged damselfly down to the brain.

''Ki, ki, ki aaaaaaaaaaah!

 The ancient spider 《Enchemental Spider》 yells out so and defends against my attack.

''Guuuuuuuuuuuuut!

 Because of the alchemy barrier, my thin-winged dragonfly attacks can't get through.

 And I meet eyes with him. I'm staring at him. I'm not going to be able to get the same kind of results that I did at that time.

''Feeb! Monika! Let's go with the usual stuff!
"Got it!

 The two of you will follow me as usual. That's what I was thinking. But just when you think a large amount of string has been spat out of that guy's ass a transfer is triggered. What's even more troublesome is the amount due to its huge body. It's an incomparable amount of thread compared to previous enemies.

 And then it spreads all at once with transference.

 I immediately felt all the attacks in the absolute realm of the Sanctuary. I anticipate all the attacks coming from all directions and make a single flash. I cut through all the threads. But apparently I was the only one who was able to do so.

''Kyaah!
d*mn! The thread!

 Yes, Fee and Monica were tangled up in threads. It seems it wasn't as much as they could handle before, and the two of them couldn't move.

''Fee! Monika!

 I yell and try to run to them, but once again a large amount of thread from the transference is spat out at me.

'Ki-kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

 This has to stop. I was aware of the intentions of the Ancient Spider, the Ancient Spider, the Ancient Spider. No, you mustn't be aware of this. He's only doing this to kill us.

 It's not like he's only aiming at Fee and Monica, and I'm not the only one deliberately removing the strings.

 This ... is ... a coincidence.



 I couldn't pretend anymore. Now I just wanted it to be over. I just wanted to get out of this maze. That's all I wanted to do.


'No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't....


 I was waving a dragonfly and combining alchemy as I stood alone against the ancient spider, the Ancient Spider.

 The four major attributes of alchemy: ice, fire, lightning and water. I shook out all of them. His body strengthening also exceeded the limit. His body was destroying itself and blood was pouring out of it. But right now, none of that mattered.

 All I want to do is kill him and be done with it.

 I don't want to see this thing I don't want to see anymore.


'Ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki, ki......


 When the Ancient Spider 《Enchemental Spider》 shouted that, a large amount of alchemy formation was deployed around it. This is........ice. And a large amount of ice debris is shot out and attacked me.



 I will deploy the reflector. I'll bounce off all the attacks. That's what I was thinking, but I quickly decided to switch to resist.

 This is because my intuition told me that that attack would be able to penetrate the Reflector. This is incomparable to the individuals who used alchemy until now. And if I were to talk about skill level alone, he's probably surpassed me.

 It's as if I've been using alchemy for decades, hundreds of years.......that kind of skill.......


''Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away, go away.


 Counteracting everything. I was resisting every single one of the massive amounts of ice that were coming at me. Then I realized that Fee and Monica were still not attacking. Fee and Monica were still not attacking. They are still entangled in a string, and right now they are only attacking me.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to help them if they attacked Fee and Monica in this situation. Those two will also die if the attack comes.

 But the Ancient Spider, the Ancient Spider, is only after me.









''Hey........who are you?''

 I can't hear you.

'You know what I mean. I'll....

 I can't hear you.

"Look at me.

 I don't look.

'Hey, can you tell me your name?'

 I won't tell you.

"Hey ... me.











 I thought I heard a voice like that, but it was my imagination.

 I shouldn't have noticed it.



 I don't want to know anything anymore. I don't want to find out. I didn't hear his last words. I can't hear them. I am normal. I'm ... all right. I'm ... right.


 I'm sure this is all in my head.
