Perhaps he is the Northern Lord that Kaa-chan talked about. It is several times larger than an average tarantula. It’s comparable in size to Kaa-chan, the leader of the wolves. Even its legs, which are supposed to be thin compared to its body, are as thick as a log.
“Grrrrrrrr!!”
She must have been hit by its silk thread as Kaa-chan is scratching her head as she couldn’t get out of the thread that was entangled in her whole body.
““Waaauuuu!!””
The wolves rushed to rescue Kaa-chan but spiders stand in their way. Meanwhile, the giant tarantula bit into Kaa-chan’s body, which was unable to move.
“~~~~~~~!?”
I immediately tried to come to her aid, but the spiders were still in the way and I couldn’t move forward.
(Linlin, staff mode.)
『……Yes, Master.』
I made Lindwurm turn back into staff mode and straddled it.
(I’m sorry, I’ll go alone from here. I can’t seem to get close to that guy on the ground you see.)
“Wau!?”
While the wolf I was riding on was stunned, I fly into the sky on my staff. Then I leaped across the battlefield and was immediately above the head of the Northern Lord.
“How dare you do that to my kaa-chan! (Use all your strength to turn that damn spider into charcoal!)”
『In that case, the magic power that Master had filled in his previous life will run out, I will also go into a dormant state for a while, is that okay?』
Lindwurm is a powerful staff, but it consumes insane amount of magical power. In my previous life, I could easily handle it with my huge amount of magical power. However, with my current body, it would take days just to fill it up with magical power again.
(It doesn’t matter. Do it.)
『Understood, Master.』
The dragon design on it opens its mouth wide. Intense energy concentrates in its oral cavity, and a thunderous popping sound resounds.
“~~~~!?”
Perhaps sensing the killing intent, the compound eyes of the giant tarantula turned to face us. The other spiders and wolves also sensed the ominous presence, so they stopped fighting and involuntarily looked up to the sky. The next moment, a fierce breath of light fell on the giant tarantula.
Boom!
An explosion echoed out and the huge body of the boss tarantula is obliterated in an instant. On the contrary, the impact was so great that it plunged the ground so deep that it seemed to continue to the bottom of the earth.
(Uh-…… It’s a little too much.)
『The master said with all his might.』
Oh-, whatever. That attack made the enemy boss disappear without even leaving a single piece of flesh behind.
I land near Kaa-chan, who is still trapped in the thread. As expected, when she was bitten earlier, she was poisoned by the giant tarantula.
Kaa-chan is limp.
『Unfortunately, I’m done for huh..… I was confident that I had a certain level of resistance to poison, but his poison was more deadly than I expected. This is probably incurable. This silk thread…, I completely misjudged his abilities… (Sigh) It’s because I let my guard down. I’m disqualified as the ruler of this territory. This poison can be said to be a deserved reward…』
She is an unusually timid and self-punishing Kaa-chan huh.
“Anti-poison”
I can easily detoxify her in this way.
『Eh?… What? My body is getting comfortable…?』
(I used detoxification magic on you.)
『Ah? I can’t believe that you can even use magic even if you’re just a baby…』
Come to think of it, I’ve only used body-strengthening magic or magic that others can’t tell just by looking at it. So she might have thought that my physical abilities are also elementary.
Eventually, the poison seemed to have been detoxified, and Kaa-chan was completely fine. For the time being, let’s heal the wound with healing magic.
With the boss spider killed, the tarantula seemed to literally run away like scattering spiderlings.
Kaa-chan was safe, and the wolves howled in triumph.
……It stinks all over the place though. The smell here is probably because there were a lot of guys who were so scared that they become incontinent from the previous deadly breath.
Well, in this way, the invasion of the spiders was repelled, and the wolves safely defended their territory.
