[VOL. 3] CHAPTER 10 – STONE LABYRINTH III
“Waah! Sa, save meee”
I heard a scream to my left.
That was Drum-senpai’s voice.
“What happened?”
As I rushed over――
Drum got entangled in some kind of thread and hung upside down.
The thread glitters with a golden s.h.i.+ne and draws beautiful, radial, geometric patterns.
“Drum, what are you doing? Are you playing around?”
Ba.s.s who was surprised by this view uttered these words.
“Are you stupid? I somehow got caught in this sticky thread and when I thought about untieing myself I ended up like this.”
“Can’t be helped. This Ba.s.s-sama will help you so wait. Pick, lend me a hand.”
To prevent having two more people soon entangled in the thread they tried to cut it with a sword to save Drum, but…….
“Wha, what the h.e.l.l?”
“Uwah, this stuff is so sticky I can’t cut it at all. I don’t want this, release me”
Shortly Ba.s.s and Pick were also entangled in it.
The more they struggled the more they got stuck.
“This……So it’s that after all.”
“That’s right, it does look like it’s that”
Both Knopf and Crescent Moon were nodding at each other.
Yeah, I think so, too.
There’s no doubt that this looks like a cobweb.
“Was it this you were talking about when you said “I got it”?”
I asked the beautiful priestess of darkness, Kitora.
“That’s right. It seems like I was proven right in a way.”
Kitora shrugged as she answered.
“That being said, the thing back there is……”
“A Spider-type monster, huh?”
Judging by the size of its nest it’s probably considerably big.
“So, what are we going to do with those guys?”
Crescent Moon looked at the three people in question.
“Sa, save us, please.”
“Big sis, please get us out of here quickly”
Hearing those words Kitora spoke coldly.
“This is very troublesome. If you touch it you’ll get stuck in it and aren’t able to leave, even cutting it doesn’t work. Though it might be flammable but if that’s the case these people will most likely burn together with it.”
“Stop that! I don’t want to burn to death–!”
Pick shouted surprised.
My seniors were going Wah, Wah as well.
“If you just move around a bit won’t it soon come out?”
“Eh……?”
At Knopf’s words, the three people suddenly stopped moving.
“It’s surely hiding around here somewhere observing the situation. How about we use them as decoy?”
At Crescent Moon’s ruthless words those three people shook their heads in silence.
Even though they actually wanted to protest in a loud voice they didn’t dare to in fear of luring the spider.
Oh boy, I feel sorry for them.
“It can’t be helped. Well then, you guys, let us know when the spider appears.”
“Head, you can’t be serious?! That’s so cruel”
“That’s right, please save us otherwise we’ll go to the afterlife”
Even though they were protesting like this in a low voice, just a little louder than being silent, I still refused.
Because I’m a villain, sorry.
“Then let’s wait at some remote place.”
“That’s right, we’ll immediately rush over as soon as you shout”
Kitora

var infolinks_wsid = 13;
and Knopf were just as cold.
Crescent Moon quickly turned her back to them and left.
“Shout to let us know when the spider comes out. But until then you have to endure.”
“s.h.i.+t, when I die I’ll take you with me”
“Uuh, I’ll curse you for real~”
As one would expect from my seniors, their comments were really villain-like.
But it didn’t have much force behind it as they spoke in a low voice.
Well, don’t worry because we’ll come save you.
We decided to wait for a bit.
We waited silently.
I felt like time was pa.s.sing strangely slowly.
Though we just waited for about ten minutes, huh?
Then I heard the sound which stopped a while ago again.
Rustle, rustle, rustle
The sound of something moving slowly and quietly.
You can tell by the atmosphere that it was considerably big.
Finally.
I patiently waited for the perfect timing.
Rustle…Rustle…Rustle…
“Uwaaaah, something’s there, something’s heeeere!!”
“Head, big sis!!”
“Noo, don’t eat me, don’t eat me!”
Those three suddenly started to panic.
It seems like they couldn’t endure hearing that sound as it was a sign of it approaching.
All four of us rushed over.
“It came out, there it is!”
Crescent Moon pointed at a place illuminated by a floating fireball.
When I looked in the direction she pointed in–it was there.
It was a huge Jorougumo with a body being about one meter long and its legs extending to up to 3 meters.⌈1⌋
It had a brilliant yellow striped pattern on its black body and had its mouth wide open showing its poisonous-looking fangs.
“Aah, First large centipedes now a giant spider, why is this dungeon filled with those creepy things?!”
