True King's Ecstasy

Chapter 390 Spider Demon



Velian's heart raced as he found himself face to face with the menacing spider demon, its eight legs poised to strike.

"Well, it looks intimidating, but much better than some enemy who is hiring like a snake going behind the back trying to stab," Looking at the tamer, Velian muttered.

The air crackled with tension as he tightened his grip on his weapon, determination surging through his veins.

With a battle cry that echoed through the surrounding trees, Velian lunged forward, unleashing a flurry of swift, calculated strikes. His blade sliced through the air, aiming for vulnerable points on the spider demon's chitinous exoskeleton.

"Take this! It should be weak here," Velian noticed a place that didn't cover its exoskeleton and precisely aimed at that spot.

Each movement was precise, a testament to Velian's honed skills and unwavering resolve.

The spider demon, sensing the threat, skittered sideways, its bulbous eyes fixed on Velian.

It retaliated with a venomous bite, its fangs dripping with toxic fluid. But Velian anticipated the attack, his reflexes honed through countless battles. He twisted his body, narrowly evading the venomous assault, and swiftly retaliated with a devastating swipe of his blade.

"Release me! I will help you battle with this thing," The tamer said, but in reality, he just wanted to run away leaving these two together, so he will get time to run away.

Velian looked at him, but he just ignored his words and continued to fight with him.

As the battle raged on, Velian showcased his agility, ducking and weaving through the demon's intricate webbing that threatened to ensnare him.

Each strand seemed to pulse with malevolence, seeking to trap its prey and render it helpless. Yet, Velian pressed on, fueled by a potent mix of adrenaline and determination.

His strikes grew more ferocious, fueled by a burning desire to protect those who had fallen under the demon's thrall.

He parried the demon's attempts to ensnare him in its web, countering with powerful thrusts and slashes that left deep, bleeding gashes in its arachnid hide.

But the spider demon was no mere opponent. It unleashed a barrage of venomous projectiles, its attacks a deadly dance of precision and malevolence.

"Ugh~ that hurts," Tamer shouted as his skin contacted the venomous liquid. And it started spreading through his hand but suddenly without even giving him a warning, Velian cut off his hand and looked at him.

"No! You won't die, even without your hand, you will live because you have some work to do,"

Leaving those words, Velian went back to the spider demon.

He twisted and somersaulted through the air, evading the venomous onslaught, until he found an opening—an opportunity to strike with all his might.

With a surge of strength, Velian delivered a final, decisive blow, his blade carving through the demon's exoskeleton and piercing its heart.

The spider demon let out a shrill screech, its body convulsing in its death throes before collapsing to the ground.

Silence settled over the battlefield as Velian stood amidst the fallen creature, its monstrous form now motionless.

"That's it? It was rather weak," Velian was rather disappointed, as he felt like he fought with a random monster rather than a cell user and for a small moment, he actually thought it was just a monster.

Until he saw the exoskeleton of the spider breaking and revealing a naked woman inside it.

The tamer was not in the right mind to see anything, as he was holding his hand in pain while his face was dirty with his own blood and tears.

"Ohhh~ so it was a human? But why is she alive? I clearly stabbed the spider," Velian thought as she should be dead.

"Whatever! I guess, I'll stab her again," He got close to her and tried to kill her, but then he noticed something strange.

"Hmm~ maybe I should wait until she gets her consciousness back, it looks like this is one of those forced cell transformations,"

Velian quickly tied her hand and waited for her to wake up. And meanwhile, he made sure that the tamer women die from the blood loss because he had many more things to accomplish.

The unconscious girl slowly began to regain consciousness. Her eyelids fluttered open, revealing a pair of bewitching emerald eyes.

Confusion and uncertainty danced within her gaze as they landed upon Velian, a rugged adventurer who had found her in a state of vulnerability.

Velian had taken extra precautions by securely binding her. After all, she had been known as a spider demon before, a formidable creature with dark powers.

As he observed her cautiously, a myriad of questions filled his mind. Who was she? What had happened to her? And why did she find herself in such a defenceless state? Is she an enemy or a victim?

Tears welled up in her eyes as she became aware of her nakedness and the restraints that confined her. The vulnerability of her situation overwhelmed her, and she pleaded with Velian, her voice trembling with fear,

"Please... please, let me go! Don't kill me,"

Velian's eyebrows furrowed, deepening the lines etched upon his forehead.

Her plea puzzled him further. He had expected hostility or perhaps a desperate struggle for freedom. Yet here she was, weeping and begging for release. It was then that he realized she must have lost her memory, her identity shrouded in a mist of forgotten recollections.

Taking a step closer, Velian's voice softened with compassion as he gently inquired, "Who are you? Can you tell me your name?"

With a hiccup amidst her sobs, she managed to stammer, "I... I am from a close-by village, please don't kill me."

His mind began to race, connecting the dots as he recalled the information circulating through the village. Stories of a young woman who had vanished under mysterious circumstances.

The pieces of the puzzle seemed to fall into place, revealing a glimpse of the truth. This girl, bound before him, could be the missing link, the key to unravelling the enigma that had gripped the village.

"So this girl is a forced cell user," Velian muttered.

Velian's gaze softened, a mixture of curiosity and concern, as he whispered, "Do not worry. I won't harm you. I only seek to understand. Your village has been searching for you. Can you remember anything? Anything at all?"

Tears continued to stream down her face, but a flicker of hope ignited in her eyes. She nodded slowly, her voice shaky yet resolute, "I... I will try. Please, untie me. I need to find my way back home."
