Chapter 383: Sniper Elite (7)

As soon as Doul Hyeon Se-rin arrived from afar, we merged together.

I stalled for time in a conversation with Lee Chae-hyun, giving Doul enough time to traverse the sky and reach Marado from the pension.

“Ugh, I really hate spiders. I already dislike Lee Chae-hyun, and now there are spiders too.”

Doul openly displayed her distaste for Lee Chae-hyun.

While she disliked insects in general, her disdain for Lee Chae-hyun as a person was even more apparent.

“Weren’t you two on the same team at one point?”

“It’s because I know her that I can say this. That woman moved to Australia, claiming she preferred Western men to Korean men, and now she’s ended up turning into this kind of demon.”

“Kee-hee-hee-hee!!”

Lee Chae-hyun no longer existed.

The villain Queen Spidey, who emigrated to Australia, no longer exists.

“Kya-ha-hah!”

Now, only an S-class—or something beyond that—demon born under the protection of orb-weaver spiders remained.

Her lower half was that of a giant spider, while her upper half retained a humanoid form. Her face was an eerie blend of human and spider features.

It was a classic depiction of the half-human, half-spider monsters, like the “Arachne” creatures from fantasy stories.

“I’ll kill you! I’ll tear you apart alive, Goblin!!”

Her murderous intent toward me had transformed her into a demon.

Her singular drive was to kill me, even if it meant becoming a demon. Her determination to shred me apart using spiders was evident.

[If she’s a true insect handler...]

“Shut up! If I control it, it’s a bug or a spider! Then why do insect shops sell spiders?!”

Wind techniques wouldn’t work on her.

Trying to rattle her mentally feels pointless and might even provoke unnecessary arguments with insect shop owners. It seems futile to debate the distinction between insects and spiders any further.

“Evolve! And stand before me! Destroy that pathetic villain!”

Snap!

The spiders wrapped themselves in webs at incredible speed.

Much like caterpillars spinning cocoons, the spiders created protective shells, only to burst out moments later, emerging with legs that stretched over 50 centimeters.

“A thorn hell?”

Six legs protruded sideways.

Two shorter legs jutted forward.

Simultaneously, a humanoid upper torso emerged from her spider-like lower half, her gaping maw snapping menacingly at me.

[As expected, Koreans are Koreans.]

Even if she was a woman, a Korean was a Korean.

It’s not surprising that she drew inspiration from traditional Korean folklore games.

Moreover, her transformation into a demon didn’t just affect her but also turned all the orb-weaver spiders she controlled into demonic minions.

It’s evident that demonic influence was spreading ever deeper into this world, not just changing individuals but also affecting surrounding creatures.

“I need to end this quickly.”

I had initially planned for a quick finish by merging with Doul, but I’d have to deviate from the original strategy.

“Come out! Every last one of you, emerge and shred that villain’s flesh and break her mask!”

Thankfully, Arachne dragged all the orb-weaver spiders hiding across Marado into the open.

Since they all transformed into demonic spiders upon emerging, I won’t need to search every corner later to eliminate them.

[Kill all the spiders and turn Arachne into Zenros.]

“Got it. Use as much magic power as you need until just before we separate!”

With permission granted to borrow magic from my partner, I have no fear.

I won’t lose to Arachne.

[Baridegi, what’s that demon’s alias?]

“Ah, that would be...!”

I transformed the Goblin Bat into another weapon form.

[Tigris hungers. What’s the target’s name?]

Double-barrel.

“No, that’s less of a rider gimmick and more like... funnels?”

Fwoosh.

Goblin soared into the sky.

The external armor, draped like a poncho, detached from his body, transforming into square-shaped objects that aimed downward.

“Guns...?”

“Of course! They’re funnels! Each with a different form, but still funnels!!”

[Deploying Aerial Bits.]

With Goblin’s voice resounding from above, the bits aimed their muzzles downward.

[Fire at will.]

Fwooshᅳᅳᅳ!!

A burst of white light radiated from Goblin’s body, and green beams of magical energy shot out from each bit like lasers.

Bam bam bam bam!

The beam bombardment rained down on the heads of the demonic spiders.

One by one, the spiders, their heads blown open, dissipated like mist.

[Shoot and kill while dodgingᅳᅳ!!]

At the shrill scream of the demon, Marado Ppyapyayas, the demonic spiders lowered their heads sharply.

At the same time, they raised their abdomens high, shooting thread-like projectiles into the sky.

Tat tat tat tat.

“Thread balls...?”

“If a demon shoots it, it’s ammo.”

“You’re not joking, are you?”

“It’s thread-based ammunition, so I called it thread ammo. Did you really think I was talking about actual bullets?”

The Chief rebutted sternly, though his face was slightly flushed.

“Still... Goblin looks composed.”

Boom.

The magical projectiles from the bits intercepted the thread ammo, causing bursts of magical energy mid-air.

Through the smoky aftermath of the explosions, mana beams fired from the bits pierced through the demonic spiders.

[What should we do? Should we intervene?]

Baridegi aimed her bow forward cautiously.

If needed, she was ready to shoot an arrow that would pierce Marado Ppyapyayas’s head.

[All the spiders are focused on Goblin right now. If I shoot now, I can kill her.]

“Good. Watch for the right moment—”

“No, Irin. Don’t take the shot.”

Taejo interrupted Tae Irin’s suggestion.

[Why? This is our chance.]

“...Goblin must have a reason for killing the spiders first. Someone who cracks villains’ skulls without paying attention to their ominous lines is deliberately targeting the spiders first.”

[Could it be...]

Tae Irin lowered her bow, her voice trembling.

[He’s worried that if he kills Marado Ppyapyayas, the demonic spiders might escape and become a bigger problem?]

Pop pop.

[There’s nothing better for stress relief than bullying the weak.]

Every time the magical energy descended, a demonic spider exploded with a delightful sound.

[And...]

The destruction of enemies using remotely controlled weapons, especially aerial beam weapons, was—

[Let me show you another way to use bits.]

A man’s dream.

[Bits, scatter and regroup.]
