Leon looked at the Steelweb spider with a serious expression as he started making different plans in his mind.
*Spit*
The spider continued to throw it’s acidic spit projectile from a distance hoping to get Leon with one of them but Leon was easily dodging them.
’Well… Let’s see if you can deal with this.’ Leon thought as an idea came to his mind and he immediately picked up two rocks from the ground.
“Melt this… Bitch.” Leon spoke as he threw both of the rocks at her with full speed.
*Spit*
*Spit*
The steelweb spider immediately spitted twice as fast and melted both of the rocks in mid-air.
“How the fuck is she doing that ?” Leon asked with a shocked expression as he looked at the steelweb spider.
“Master… Should I try to attack her from behind.” Dusk asked as he looked at Leon.
“No… Stay back. You can’t see her webs, if she pulled out one mid-battle you will be dead before you can blink.” Leon ordered with a serious expression.
*Spit-Spit-Spit*
The steelweb spider threw three spit projectiles towards him with full speed and all of the them were coming at him from all possible dodging angles.
But Leon wasn’t idiot… He immediately jumped back and ducked down in order to dodge all the projectiles.
’Her eyes see everything and her reflexes to anything that is coming at her from the front or back are too fast.
She spits and melts any potential threat mid-air. That’s one intelligent monster.’ Leon thought with a serious expression as another idea popped in his head.
“Dusk… Collect all the stones near that tree.” Leon ordered as he immediately started collecting stones from the ground while dodging the steelweb spider’s webs.
“Y-Yes, Master.” Dusk spoke as he immediately started collecting stones with his mouth, even though he didn’t knew what Leon was trying to do… He didn’t doubt his orders and followed them without any question.
*Spit-Spit-Spit*
*Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit*
*Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit*
As Leon dodged her attacks and collected the stones, he noticed something strange…
’Every few seconds… The number of projectiles that she can throw at me are increasing and if this continues, I will melt before I can execute my plan.’ Leon thought with a serious expression.
*Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit*
“Take this bitch…” Leon spoke as he threw two stones at her once again.
*Spit-Spit*
The steelweb spider focused some of it’s eyes on the stones as she melted them with her acidic saliva and kept an eye out for any sneak attacks from Leon’s side.
“Take this too…” Leon spoke as he continued to throw stones at her.
*Spit-Spit-Spit-Spit*
’As long as I keep throwing rocks at her, she attacks them first and that’s a very vulnerable position for her.
Because her focus get’s splitted in that very moment.’ Leon thought with a smile as he continued to throw stones at her for the next one minute and then… He stopped.
The spider immediately looked at Leon and noticed that he was holding two dark blades in both hands and a wicked smile on his face.
“Dusk… Get ready to hide.” Leon spoke with a smile.
“Yes, Master.” Dusk replied as he immediately looked at a nearby tree.
“You kept looking at me and the stones that I was throwing at you, but you forgot to look down… stupid spider.” Leon spoke with a smile as he pointed towards the ground.
As soon as the Steelweb spider looked down at the ground, she noticed two snowy lines coming directly under her from Leon’s feet.
*Tick-Tick*
As soon as she took a step back, she noticed two exploding beads right under her legs.
“Die… Bitch. Kabooom.” Leon spoke as he immediately rolled back and hided behind a fallen tree.
*Roll*
Dusk did the same and in a split second, he also hided behind the tree that he was looking at.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*
[Congratulations! You have Leveled up!]
[Congratulations! You have Leveled up!]
[Congratulations! You have Leveled up!]
[Congratulations! You have Leveled up!]
….
Two very loud explosions took place in the middle of the forest and blew up most of the trees away with a ton of snow.
As soon as the things settled down, Leon slowly raised his head and noticed half blown corpse of the steelweb spider lying down on the ground.
“Oh well… That was a loud explosion. You can come out now, Dusk.” Leon spoke with a smile as he looked at the right.
“Y-Yes… Master.” Dusk replied as he slowly came out and noticed the corpse of the steelweb spider.
“She was one tough opponent.” Leon spoke with a smile as he looked at her corpse.
*Swish*
Suddenly, a white glow erupted from her corpse and it disappeared completely… Leaving behind a small piece of paper flying mid-air with a blue hue around it.
“W-What’s happening ?” Dusk asked with a shocked expression as he couldn’t understand anything.
[Congratulations! You have received a C-rank skill drop from the monster {Steelweb Spider}.]
“Hmm…?” Leon immediately walked upto the piece of paper and grabbed it with hurry.

“Holy fucking shit… This is a really good defensive skill.” Leon spoke as he looked at the page.
Without wasting another second, he immediately tore the skill page into two and it disappeared.
[Would you like to-]
“Yes, Learn it.” Leon spoke even before the notification was completed.
[Congratulations! You have successfully learned the skill {Steelweb Armour}.]
“Steelweb Armour…” Leon spoke as he immediately activated the skill.
*Swish-Swish-Swish*
In a split second, his whole body got covered with a heavily reinforced dark steelweb armour.
Leon moved his hands and noticed that it felt very similar to a silk cloth.
He then took a step forward and did a back-flip.
“Wow… This is very flexible.” Leon spoke with a smile.
[You have temporarily gained: +45000 Hit Points.]
“What ?” As soon as this notification popped up in front of him, a confused expression appeared over his face.
“Something wrong with it… Master ?” Dusk asked with a confused expression.
“No… It’s something else.” Leon replied as he continued to observe the notification.
’I gained 45000 HP just from this armour but-’ and suddenly it hit him.
’I am such an idiot… I wasn’t wearing any armour till now and that’s why everyone I saw had more HP then me.
It all depends on the armour, the better armour I wear the more hit points I will get. Fuck… When did I became such an idiot.’ Leon thought as he de-activated the skill and the armour disappeared from his body immediately.
*Swish*
[-45000 HP]
“Master… It’s about to be night soon, we should get out of this forest.” Dusk spoke with a serious expression as he looked around.
“Yeah… Let’s go.” Leon spoke as he immediately jumped over Dusk’s back and he started running south once again.
“Master… Can I ask what kind of spell you used to kill that spider ?” Dusk asked as he continued to run forward.
“Exploding beads… I used one of them back in the dungeon if you remember.” Leon replied with a smile.
“I remember now master. But, that explosion and this explosion had such a huge difference… Why was that master ?” Dusk asked.
“That was-” Before Leon could’ve completed his sentence, he noticed something odd.
“Dusk stop.” He ordered.
*Screech*
As soon as Dusk stopped, Leon jumped down from his back and noticed that there were lights coming from inside the forest.
“What is that ?” Leon asked with a confused expression.
“M-Master… I don’t think we should go there. This forest can create illusions very easily in order to keep the prey here for the rest of their life.” Dusk replied with a serious expression.
“I don’t think it’s an illusion, Dusk. Because if my eyes aren’t deceiving me… That’s a whole fucking village in the middle of a forest.” Leon spoke with a serious expression as he noticed the villagers roaming around the village in very heavy clothings and carrying food in their hands.
The odd thing about the village was that not even a single snowflake was falling inside it.
It was if there is an invisible dome protecting it.
…
As Leon focused, he noticed some really beautiful MILFs sitting near a campfire.
“What is happening in our there ?”
“I don’t know.”
“Didn’t you guys heard those explosions ?”
“I can’t say I didn’t heard them… But the elders won’t let us go and check.”
“Well, who needs the permission of those old geezers ? Let’s just go and find out what that was.” A woman in her thirties spoke as she stood up from her place with a confident expression on her face.
“No, No… Mia, you know what happens when someone takes a step out of the village don’t you ?”
“Oh come on… It’s just a myth. It doesn’t really happen and I know magic, I can protect myself.”
“Don’t challenge the forest, Mia. We are already cursed once. I don’t think you would want to do that again.” An old man spoke as he stepped out of his house.
