415 My ancestor… seems to have been a spider (1/2)
The purple-haired girl kept glowing red.
Every time she flashed red, she would ”freeze” in her movements. As the flashes of red kept occurring more and more frequently, the scene became rather strange.
Seiji felt like he was witnessing what would happen to a video game character if the person playing as that character had a terrible internet connection. Lag, lag, lag…
For him who had been defending against her attacks just earlier with great difficulty, he was now free enough to stand around and simply observe the situation.
Finally, a large amount of red light was emitted from the girl's body as her movements froze completely.
”Get... the... hell... out!”
With this shout, there was a sudden blinding red flash as a red shadowy figure exited the girl's body!
Yukari instantly felt a sensation of release.
She instantly discovered that her body completely belonged to her again, causing her to be overjoyed.
”Seigo! I did it!!” she shouted out joyously to him, but saw that he had a dazed expression as he stared at her.
'What's the matter?'
Yukari looked at herself, and noticed what was wrong.
Her clothes were gone!?
She was completely naked, revealing every bit of her skin as well as certain private parts that shall not be named…
”Ah… ahhhh!!!”
She suddenly crouched down as her face heated up and tears welled up in her eyes.
'Why did all my clothes disappear?
'I'm totally naked… he saw everything!
'I'm so embarrassed!! This is so humiliating!!'
The purple-haired girl really wanted to dig a hole and hide in it right now.
Seiji finally regained his senses when he saw how Yukari was becoming embarrassed.
'I saw something nice… No, no, I can't think like this, now's not the time to be thinking of such things!'
Yukari had recovered to her original state. Although he didn't know why she became naked, this was still a good thing.
The part to focus on right now was the thing that just left her body!
Seiji looked towards the red shadowy figure.
It kept changing its form. It resembled a spider, yet also a human, or a mix between a human and a spider…
”Is it possible to communicate with that?” Seiji mentally asked the female spirit in his mind while walking up to Yukari, taking off his jacket and placing it on her body.
”I don't know. You can attempt to communicate with it.”
What should he even say? Should he ask what it was?
Seiji attempted to ask the red shadow what it was.
There was no response.
The purple-haired girl beside him stood up.
”Seigo…” Although she was still feeling embarrassed, Yukari knew that now wasn't the time to be too worried about embarrassment, as it was more important to understand what was going on with the current situation.
Yukari blinked as she listened to Seiji's explanation. ”So, that is to say, this is actually similar to a trial of power that you can see in anime and manga? And this is the judge for the trial?”
”Yes, you can think of it like that.”
Something flashed in the purple-haired girl's eyes as she looked towards the red shadowy figure.
Under her gaze, the red shadowy figure changed into the form of a woman wearing Sakura Island clothing and stopped fluctuating in form.
After exchanging glances with it for a while, Yukari bravely walked up towards it.
Seiji reflexively wanted to stop her from doing so, but stopped himself. Instead, he followed her silently and prepared himself for battle just in case.
Yukari walked up to the red shadow and spoke cautiously, ”I don't know anything about you… If you have anything to tell me, please let me know.”
The red shadow woman slowly reached out with one hand to Yukari.
When Yukari saw this, she hesitated for a moment, but slowly reached out with her hand as well.
Their hands touched.
Seiji witnessed a bright red flash. Then, the purple-haired girl shouted as she retracted her hand and clutched her forehead.
”Yukari, what's the matter!?”
”I'm… fine…” She forced herself to speak. ”I'm fine… I just… saw…”
What did she see?
