Chapter 49 - Spiders Everywhere! Grind Like There's No Tomorrow!
.

I grabbed the Sphere of Strength, and just like the one of Dexterity, I decided to save them inside my Inventory, as the heat of the battle was way too intense to consume them now.
Especially because just a second after fighting the spider, another group of four of them ran towards me from all directions!
I quickly enhanced my body with Mana, while using the Enhancement of Wind and Fire from my equipment to enhance my strength and dexterity by a small percentage, similar to touching a Totem, and then ran near my house, putting the walls of the house before mine so I couldn't get any sneak attack from behind!
And then…
Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis!
The Spiders were right about leaping over me, but my eyes flashed with bright crimson-red colors as the wave of electricity hit them!
One of them managed to evade in time though, and used a boost on speed by infusing mana into its body, reaching my left leg, and biting it!
The sharp fangs were painful, but I quickly crushed the spider's head with the tip of my cane, and then firing Fireball over the wound, inflating the flesh spider, and making it explode!
BOOM!
I glanced at my wound as I saw purple liquid dripping from it, a sudden feeling of numbness took over me, but then, the poison was gone, Ervas covered me from above, as he had used the Life Spell Antidote over me. My Health loss was also back up, as he threw a small healing spell as well before resuming his own attacks.
I glanced at the spiders I had paralyzed, as they were slowly moving again, but I quickly tried to use Vampiric Eyes of Paralysis once more!
Spark!
The spark of electricity hit the spiders again, paralyzing them!
However, two of them were not affected anymore, it seems that the more I use the Skill in a single target, the more its effects become lowered.
Nonetheless, I fire two fireballs at the two that were slowly walking towards me, while pointing my hand at the ones still paralyzed in the ground, and generate three spheres of pure mana.
Mana Bullet Blast!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The paralyzed spiders can't evade, and are torn apart by the explosions, while I quickly evade another sneaky bite from the surviving spider that managed to live the first two fireballs I fired!
I glance at it while gritting my teeth, cold sweat was already showering my body as my breath became heavy, this creature's aura was different!
Unlike the other monsters which I inspected to be E-Rank, this one was…
[Demonic Poisonous Spider Leader (E-Rank+)]
E-Rank+?
I suppose there are middle ranks in between ranks? The System didn't say anything over this.
Nonetheless, this guy clearly is stronger than the others, its external purple flesh seems harder, and its glowing crimson eyes are glowing brighter. It is about two times bigger than the others as well, and it has a small red horn atop its body.
"GRYAR!"
It roars at me, as it opened its jaws and fired a large amount of viscous poison!
I evade in time as I point my hands and cane at it!
Fireball! Consecutive Mana Bullet Blast!
Casting Fireball and Consecutive Mana Bullet Blast, I blast away the beast a few meters away, the fire seems to burn through its thick skin but doesn't do much, and the explosive bullets managed to get some wounds done, but the thing is resilient.
The monster step down a few centimeters, and I decide to blast it once more with attacks, I can't let it get any hit on me!
A fireball comes out accompanied by a gust of wind, fusing together into what seemed like a small spiral of flames rushing towards it!
As it took some big hits before, it is lethargic, and ends up tripping over the roots Ervas left beforehand!
FLASH!
The spiral of flames catches it in time, as the beast is roasted alive!
I keep firing fireballs, until the monster stops screeching and simply falls over the ground, motionless.
Suddenly, items appear out of thin air as if magically, and I quickly run towards them and grab them, putting them inside my Inventory and flying over the house again.
[You gained EXP]
[Your Level has increased to Level 26!]
[You gained Skill Points]
Killing that thing gave me enough EXP for level 26! That was quite good.
I rest for a bit above the rooftop as I take out the Soul Spheres got and consume them.
By consuming I mean using them, they turn into sparkles of light, and sloooowly reach my body and enhance it.
Ding!
[You gained +20 Dexterity, +40 Strength, +60 Mana, and +30 Magic]
So aside from leveling up you can speed up your progress even more by consuming these things in mass… I suppose the Great One Above All of Creation really wants us all to grow quickly and beat the crap out of one another…
Could it be that he is incentivizing growth so everywhere you go there is a way to grow stronger? Yeah, filled with dangers.
Well, if this bastard is watching me now I hope I am giving you nice entertainment, asshole, I am one day going to go up there and beat the shit out of you.
Maybe that sounded way too cringy, but that's how I feel…
Anyways, having this done, I quickly fly down below again while inspecting what everyone is doing.
Kireina and Anna kept looking over the frontlines, slashing and crushing anything they find, while Ervas fires attacks from above and heals anyone that needs it.
After that, Vudia controls her golems and occasionally shoots thunderbolts at enemies.
The wave of spiders seems endless, but we are working so well it seems as if we were playing a tower defense game.
I decide to create several jewels of fire and wind and throw them around like bombs while flying over the monsters, each jewel, when they crack in the ground, explode, blowing up the spiders into pieces all over the place.
More and more EXP rushes into my very being, and I can't help but begin to grow addicted to this sensation… dozens of spiders die at once as I keep throwing these bombs and also fireballs, bullet blasts, and gusts.
[You gained EXP]
[You gained EXP]
[You gained EXP]
[Your Level has increased to Level 27!]
[You gained Skill Points]
After a few minutes, Level 27 already!
I glance around me as I see that Anna and Vudia have already reached Level cap, so I quickly spend some gold on them and let them keep leveling.
[You exchanged 20.000 Gold!]
Well, I am getting thousands of it now, so it doesn't hurt much!
And even more, as I kept hitting these bugs, some eventually began to drop Hero Feathers too!
Hero Feathers are also a useful resource, but I don't know why I am getting them, I guess I generate different drops than other normal folk based in my system?
Anyways, after I fly over and begin to conjure more fireballs, most of the trees are already burnt to a crisp and the area around the house becomes a flat wasteland.
I hear the screeches of something bigger, as a large spider leader approaches me and suddenly leaps towards me!
I quickly evade, and ready myself for battle as I see several Leaders behind it!
