Chapter 240: Shall We Try Again?

Spider silk splattered everywhere, pieces of it littered from rocks to tree branches.

Puddles of purple blood splattered around, making the ground sticky.

Yuki raised her sword and split the spider attacking her from behind into two. The blood did not splash on her due to the sword’s speed.

Ignoring the adult-sized spider corpses nearby, Yuki’s dark red eyes glowed with a murderous intent, like burning fireworks.

Now, only the Abyssal Spider King, the size of a small hill, remained in front of her.

The Abyssal Spider that faced Yuki had six huge eyes, staring intensely at the human before it.

Besides its enormous size, the most prominent feature of the Abyssal Spider was the dozens of white bone spikes protruding high on its back in all directions.

At this moment, the sharp bone spurs still had some spider remains on them, looking somewhat scary.

But many bone spurs were neatly cut, lying along with two broken legs among a pile of spider bodies.

It was already at the end of its strength.

At dawn, the distant half of the sky gradually turned a bit golden, casting a faint halo on the Sword Saint.

She was running out of patience.

It wasn’t just from a particular moment that she started feeling uneasy, although it didn’t affect her combat awareness but made her a bit restless.

This Abyssal Spider King seemed to be a few levels higher than her, and its poisonous spider web caused quite a bit of trouble.

And now, it was time to deal with it.

The distinctive long sword trembled slightly, the killing intent bloomed once again, and the invisible pressure spread out from around Yuki.

The remaining spiders all retreated in fear, even the knights in the same camp felt a chill from the depths of their hearts, none dared to step forward.

"Creak."

The two fierce stingers of the Abyssal Spider King stirred each other, making sharp, ear-piercing noises, then raised its hind body, and purple spider silk sprayed towards Yuki.

Under the vast web woven by spider silk, the Abyssal Spider King suddenly jumped back a few steps, turned around, and ran away.

Countless willow leaf-shaped sword lights shimmered, Rin’s sharp sword energy instantly cut off several strands of spider web, scattering them on the ground.

Yuki, shining in the golden light of the valkyrie, raised her long sword, a white light column climbed up the blade, turning into a pillar of light, soaring into the sky as if to pierce through the clouds.

The crisscrossing sword energy swept through, crushing the remains in front of her into powder and whisking them away.

One of the ultimate sword techniques, Dawn’s Demise, requires completing seven prerequisite sword techniques, accumulating sword intent, and consuming a large amount of magical power to unleash.

As the sword fell, the splendid light overflowed, and the light column triggered by the sword technique instantly split down, surging like a dragon, flooding the escaping body of the magic spider in an instant.

The body of the Abyssal Spider King, the surrounding spiders, and all living beings on the radiant path were all annihilated.

Yuki stood still with her sword tip stuck in the ground for a long time.

Rather than a concave shape, she unleashed all her sword energy and intent with her finishing move, causing her magic to become somewhat chaotic, her blood boiling, and needing some time to adjust.

The radiance dissipated slowly, revealing in front of her a huge trench that was ten meters wide, about two meters deep, and fifty to sixty meters long.

The knights forced to end the battle with the Abyssal Spider watched in astonishment at the trench and the Sword Saint standing in front of it, then gazed at Yuki with admiration and intense worship.

"Phew."

After barely suppressing her chaotic blood and energy, Yuki took a breath and sheathed her sword.

If not for the level suppression, she should have avoided using her finishing move as much as possible because her current bloodline awakening was very unstable.

The good news was that she would soon level up.

"Sword Saint, are you okay?"

Two female knights with sparkles in their eyes approached, asking with concern.

"I’m fine."

Yuki tilted her head slightly, touched the silver-white hair on her left side, and softly said, "Let’s clean up the battlefield, I need to take a rest."

"Okay… Alright! Please make sure to rest well, Sword Saint."

Away from the crowd, Yuki took out the tent and sleeping bag Rin had prepared for her, and crawled inside.

Taking off the headband, her brown long hair fell down, with some curls at the ends, softening Yuki’s cold features.

With red eyes showing some fatigue, she lay down on her side, Sword Saint could still smell the scent of her younger brother, which made her feel intoxicated.

However, she still felt a bit anxious.

Is it because she missed Little Rin too much after not seeing him for a few days?

Hmm, I wonder if Emilia has been able to protect her little brother.

There are too many wicked women outside, hopefully her little brother is safe…

Miss him!

…

In a daze, Rin felt himself floating lightly, with a wonderful feeling as if wanting to transcend and become immortal.

However, a large amount of magic penetrated his body, rushing like a wild dog off its leash, constantly rising, causing some discomfort.

From his mind and soul, entangled and filled with some pricking sensation, Rin could not help but open his eyes.

The room was filled with dark purple demonic energy, so thick that it was hard to keep his eyes open.

Just as dark energy wrapped around the land, the person who was supposed to be transforming between Waste Hero and silly elk has now become another familiar figure.

This person… looks like Suyu.

Yes, can only say looks like her, with dark long hair and purple charming eyes.

But her appearance is far from the fox in his memory.

It is a beauty that cannot be described in words, every inch is breathtaking, even giving a strong surreal feeling.

Among the perfect features, that alluring temperament suppressed, now fully erupts from her slightly red cheeks, captivating and irresistible.

The soul’s palpitations, and the feeling of towering over three taboos, make Rin constantly changing between dreams and reality.

"Suyu… perch?"

He murmured in confusion, looking at the Lord Demon King above.

Suyu quickly covered his eyes and said, "No peeking, silly junior." But her voice sounded different than usual.

Everyone knows that Lord Demon King is strong at attacking but weak at defending, even when he initiates an attack, he is close to passing out now.

Feeling a mix of intense embarrassment and happiness, Suyu spread her black wings, wrapping herself and Rin in them.

Rin’s vision darkened and he could only feel countless soft feathers shielding him, soon his consciousness slipped away again.

Seeing Rin being pulled into a dream once more, Suyu was about to wake him up when she suddenly felt the magic reservoir she had been holding back for a long time, suddenly overflowing.

"Oh no, why now of all times."

After years of being stuck at level eighty-nine, the bottleneck shattered uncontrollably, the compressed magic suddenly erupted into chaos.

At level ninety, the entire world could count on one hand, such a powerful force, the erupting magic at the breakthrough moment was incredibly frightening.

The stored magic throughout her body was running wild, the demonic energy also became chaotic, she could only try her best to endure it.

Once out of control, half of the buildings in the entire kingdom would be destroyed, not to mention Rin in front of me.

What’s more, the overflowing demonic energy was too strong and spread too far, already catching the attention of others.

We must leave here quickly.

Suyu gritted her teeth, the demonic energy turning into black mist around her body. She picked up Rin, opened a portal, brought him back to the inn, found an empty room, casually left him there, then entered the portal again, disappearing.

Thankfully, she had already entered the exam hall four times. As a newcomer in the first group, even the Demon King was quite satisfied, not feeling any sense of frustration.

It’s just… a bit hard to let go and feeling trapped.

But now, the most important thing is to find a safe place to seclude herself and sort out the demonic energy.

…

"I… I’m so tired."

Rin gradually woke up, his somewhat slow senses becoming clearer.

And then… grimacing and holding his waist.

"Ouch, it hurts! What’s happening?!"

Not only his waist hurt, his whole body felt very tired, not quite to the point of fainting, but it was really tough.

Why do I feel like I just ran a marathon after sleeping?

Rin remembered, scenes from his dream suddenly came to mind, making him blush.

That feeling, impossible to describe to others.

The key thing is, three people appeared out of nowhere…

He felt too embarrassed.

No, no, this is revenge!

Rin scratched his head, rolled around on the bed in disbelief, and grimaced in pain from his sore waist.

"I was just dreaming, why… does it hurt so much!"

After pausing for a moment, he finally realized what was wrong.

Waste Hero didn’t even lie down with him?

Moreover, these sheets and blankets weren’t the ones he usually brings when going out?

No, this isn’t my room.

Rin shivered, looked at his body, quickly changed back into his clothes, and rushed out of the room.

Looking at the door sign, he was even more horrified.

This room definitely isn’t mine, and it’s upstairs.

What happened last night, exactly?

Rin walked towards his room, remembering as he went.

As he remembered, he couldn’t help but touch his neck.

He met Betty last night… who turned out to be a succubus.

After that, his curse broke out, and he doesn’t remember much after that.

All he remembers is having a long dream…

The curse… must have been suppressed, but it was probably resisting, or why else would he feel so uncomfortable all over.

Oh well, at least he didn’t die. That silly Betty girl at least sent him back, even if she sent him to the wrong room, he won’t pursue that.

It’s already late in the morning, and this is the first time he’s getting up so late.

Rin sneaked back to his room, opened the door, and saw Emilia sitting on the bed lost in thought.

Thinking about last night’s dream made Rin feel anxious, as if all kinds of animals were jumping around in his heart.

He even felt a bit nervous to face Waste Hero.

Luckily, he was good at calming himself down, and quickly pretended to be calm as if the dream was just about a cat.

"You, not sleeping in is quite rare," he said in surprise.

Hearing Rin’s voice, Waste Hero snapped out of her thoughts, a blush briefly appearing on her face before vanishing.

As Rin approached her, Waste Hero suddenly pounced on him and made him sit down on the floor.

But… she was a bit tired, so Miss Hero frowned slightly before happily meowing.

"Tundere, wake up, please!"

"Not your head!"

This knowledge… has a strange sense of familiarity, can’t be said.

"Quickly get up! What madness early in the morning."

Emilia hugged his neck and kissed him a few times, just like a little cat lying still on its owner.

Rin suddenly felt a bit embarrassed and patted her back.

"Don’t play dumb, get up, don’t you know you’re heavy?"

"Not heavy, very light, clearly, Elise, heavier."

Speaking of this, Emilia remembered being kicked by a deer last night, and she got angry.

Even though the goal was achieved and the chemistry experiment results were really good, having an extra person around made my heart feel sad.

I wish I could throw the silly elk into the fish group right now.

She thought for a moment, then lowered her head and whispered into Rin’s ear.

"Who is more comfortable, me or Elise?"

"？？？"

At first, Rin was confused, then he widened his eyes in disbelief and said, "What are you talking about, silly you!!"

"In the dream, me and Elise, who…"

Before she could finish, Rin panicked and covered her mouth.

"How… no, why would you… what’s going on! It can’t be, it can’t be!"

He felt something soft touch his hand, which made his heart skip a beat, so he covered his hand and pulled it back.

His brain’s computer was burning up, almost crashing.

"If it’s difficult to answer now, you can try again later."

Emilia stood up, grabbed the edge of her shirt, and tried to pull it up.

Rin was suddenly startled and quickly stood up, pushing her hand away.

"Don’t do that!"

"Could you please answer properly without any trouble?"

"I don’t want to think about it too much right now."

Rin sat on the bed and raised his hand to stop Waste Hero from speaking.

Then he covered his head, feeling dizzy and confused like never before.

After a while, he couldn’t dare to look at Waste Hero, so he asked in a low voice with his head down.

"So, we were dreaming?"

"Hmm, something like that."

"In the dream… um… well… cough, also…"

"Embarrassing? Yes."

Hearing it from Waste Hero confirmed that last night’s dream was not forgotten when waking up, Rin immediately collapsed onto the bed, rolling around in distress.

"Oh no, I’m done for, so embarrassing!"

"Why, why did I do something so stupid."

"Now… it’s impossible to call this friendship, right!?"

Waste Hero interrupted, "According to, um, that thing called a movie textbook, that’s the closest behavior."

"I know even without you saying it! The distance is negative now, right!"

Rin grumbled, then buried his head under the pillow for a while, lifted it up and asked again.

"There are silly elk in the dream, right?"

"Yeah, it would be even better if she’s not there."

After saying that, Waste Hero imitated a displeased deer’s puffed cheeks in protest.

It still felt a bit strange on that emotionless face.

Rin, in despair, counted on his fingers, "What about the black fox?"

No.

Waste Hero shook her head decisively and asked in dissatisfaction, "Tundere, do you still want the bad fox?"

"Hiss… Something’s not right!"
