After completing the tutorial, she could choose missions as she wished.
Kumoko vs. Rend
Rend, after taking a powerful blow from Ryu Takeno's tail, was injured but still overwhelmingly stronger than Kumoko.
How to defeat such a monster?
Only magic and poison—Kumoko's strongest offensive options.
Let's go!!
Kumoko leaped across the rocks, continuously using Poison Magic to create venomous orbs, attacking the dragon.
Rend roared, diving from the sky, its body striking the small spider.
Kumoko, with incredible reflexes, narrowly dodged the attack.
While dodging, she launched poison bombs, but they evaporated before reaching Rend, incinerated by the intense flames surrounding it.
Against that fiery armor, even potent venom was useless.
Rend, if it chose, could easily dodge the poison bombs with its high speed and evasion skills.
A terrifying opponent.
No, it flies, and I run; this is too disadvantageous.
I need another plan.
Kumoko, seeing the soaring dragon, turned towards the passage to the upper layer, Rend in hot pursuit.
Think she's running away?
No!
Kumoko ran until the entrance, suddenly stopping, severing a taut thread.
Rend, pursuing her, was struck by a falling spiderweb and boulders.
Luring.
Like luring the Gunerush into her trap, her retreat was a ruse to lure Rend into a trap, knocking it from the air.
This trap was meant to protect Ryu Takeno during his evolution, unused until now.
Now!
Numerous magic circles unfolded around Kumoko, preparing a powerful spell.
The next instant, sensing danger, Rend unleashed a fiery breath.
A devastating torrent of flames swept towards Kumoko.
That was Rend's level 10 skill—Infernal Breath.
The wide-range, annihilation breath blasted the ground, melting rocks, creating a new sea of magma.
Even with Heat Resistance, Kumoko couldn't withstand the heat.
As the flames approached, Kumoko didn't dodge, continuing to construct her magic circle. She couldn't dodge; this was her only chance to defeat Rend. If Rend took to the air again, she'd have no second chance.
It's time, open, Hellgate!
The brightly lit middle layer suddenly plunged into darkness.
Below Rend, a black abyss appeared, swallowing rocks, magma, light—everything. Ultimate darkness surged from the ground.
"Roar—!!!"
Rend roared, struggling to escape the darkness, the terrifying abyss, but its struggles were futile.
Its form was slowly dragged into the abyss.
The darkness consumed everything, finally drawing the dragon's massive body into the ground, disappearing.
It was as if it had been sealed.
As if the Hellgate had closed again.
Only I and the battered dragon remained.
Seriously…?
Kumoko hadn't expected her ultimate move to fail; she felt despair. She'd withstood the Infernal Breath, but…
Hmm? Wait!
