Vaelkar easily caught continuously the flying obsidian piercing crystal leg. The ground started to cracked with their heavy battle.
Vaelkar threw the widow obsidian in a distancw and it landed in the wall.
/Thud/
It made a loud noise, dust and debris covered the whole area. It screaming in pain.
Vaelkar looked at merry pitiful state, and judged the barrier capability to withstand the impact of their battle.
"U will die before you even realizing it"
He thought that it won't last long. So, He casted a barrier that was impenetrable for something like this battle.
A light shone in the dark a spherical barrier started to construct its way up covering merry's body. After it constructed it turn invisible that couldn't be seen in the naked eyes.
Vaelkar looked to the direction of the agonizing scream of widow spider, he lifted his one foot and before it even touch the ground, He was now infront of the widow obsidian.
"Tell me, why do you still fight even though I am infront of you?" Vaelkar asked curiously and even stroked his beardless face.
The widow obsidian kept throwing her obsidian piercing legs for a minute. Even kept her distance to unleash and obsidian web nets. Vaelkar was still standing and pondered.
"Why do you fight so desperate even though you know the outcome? why not flee? or…" He uttered.
"Is it because of your eggs" Vaelkar looked at the countless eggs in the whole area.
In a moment of realization, obsidian web nets surrounded the whole area around him.
Vaelkar lifted his hand and wave into the thin air, a strong wind blew like a current.
The obsidian web nets and the eggs went along to the strong force. The whole area was cleared, Only the widow obsidian and merry was on the ground.
The widow obsidian was exhausted rapidly, she tried to gather more nets. However, she no longer could produce any silk.
Vaelkar walked to her location, what she saw was something different within him, an otherworldly feeling. A feeling that could never be expressed by any means except, an unknown being beside you.
The only though of widow obsidian in her mind was 'Ohh, mighty being… spare me… I don't want to die, I simply did what I had to do…' she realized that this would not spare her from the death.
A one last thought came rushing into her head from her deep forgotten memories from the past.
A bloodied battle occurred in her world, blood of countless obsidian spiders dripping down and it filled the ground like a sea.
The widow obsidian was seen holding her precious little daughter in her human like hands. The daughter spoke and said.
"M… Mommy" blood started to filled her mouth. While being gripped by her mothers arms tightly.
"It's okay, mom is here" A quivering voice came from the widow spider.
A gentle hands wiping her tears off.
"Don't cry mommy… please live for me and wait for me… I love you… so much" She uttered, The gentle hands fall into the bloodied body.
Rage boiled the bloody seas, emotions filled her heart, The mind was corrupted her judgement.
——————
'Please… spare my child… She's so precious to me… I hope you spare her'
The thoughts and the sealed memories flowing from her, Vaelkar directly felt it.
However, he realized that by slaying the dungeon's boss. One could leave and back to the earth.
"A mother's love for her child was infinite. Since you're so desperate, I will spare her for you." He uttered.
Vaelkar closed her eyes and a magical circle started to form around them to the point, it reached the entrance of the forest.
'Thank you, mister'
"Not a mister, My name is Vaelkar"
'Vaelkar… Thank you' A gentle smile lifted from her cheeks, a human figure.
[World Tree Creation]
"Arise" Vaelkar uttered in a low tone of voice.
In an instant in the location of the widow obsidian, where the center of the magic circle, a seed sprouted in a tremendous speed.
He quickly teleported the others to the entrance beyond of the forest.
"What the hell"
"What just happened"
They're were all shocked to what they were seeing in front of them. A towering tree that reached the clouds grew out of nowhere.
"Isn't this a D-ranked dungeon? What the hell is this…" The warrior uttered
"I was just about to finished my casting, suddenly this happened" Merry uttered and they all looked at vaelkar.
"Why are you all looking at me now, I didn't do that" He uttered.
'Who said you do that' They sighed and thought when they heard vaelkar.
"Anyways, this was something beyond our understanding, it's thanks to that we are all alive" The knight uttered.
The leader immediately went to the gate entrance and touched the gate, he knew that the boss perished.
They all went to the gate together back to the outside world.
A flashed of lights and a clicking of camera greeted them, crowd gathered around the gate.
Earlier, before all of this. The korean hunter association, doing their usual work, when suddenly the screen went red and sirens began ringing.
It means something happened around the country beyond their control. The major general loki located the entire country and found the source, He immediately contacted, The World Hunter Alliance.
'… Someone wants to go there' The WHA replied.
The major general loki, immediately went and escorted the special envoy to the scene.
Meanwhile, in the present. Interviewer and reporters flocked together questioning about the situation inside the gate.
However, the KHA closed the gate so, they no one will dare to go in. They pushed the reporters out from the restricted area.
A jet flew and headed towards the barren forest, the door opened.
/Clang/
Thunderstorm roaring in the sky, each footsteps of the person inside the jet caused this sudden thunderstorm. It makes the air hard enough to breathe, people's struggled as if their breathing electricity.
/Thud/
The footstep make the air ripple, an electric discharge came through his veins that glow like a crackling circuits in his hands.
In the moment, the figure vanished and teleported right into the ground.
The people's breathing began to turned back to the normal.
Many began to question what kind of existence could cause such a phenomenon. They have no idea about the figure before them.
Whispers spread among the crowd.
"Who's that?"
"Who would believe that the major general loki itself personally escorted him"
"Never seen this person before but… I feel like I seen him before. That's weird"
The personnel of KHA make way to the man before them, he walked towards the group of hunters who cleared the gate alive.
Jerome their leader bowed to him, as he knew that the man before him was not a simple person, a high ranking at that.
He opened his mouth and said.
"Are you the one who cleared the gate"
"Yes and No" Jerome uttered.
"Cut the small talk. Explain everything" The man said with a serious look.
"We just did what a hunters do when clearing a gate. However, a tree appeared out of nowhere that reached the sky" Jerome replied.
"A tree?!!" Unknowingly he blurted out a word.
They're shocked because a electrical discharge caused the surrounding area to burst. He then apologized and proceeded to introduce himself.
"My apologies. I forgot to introduce myself… Zephyron Tempestcore also known as, The living thunder"
A few breaths have passed, no one dares to speak. Only with the same thought could be heard from their looks.
'Zephyron tempestcore, the living thunder.'
'The living legend from the past, Once slew an Overking by himself'
The thoughts kept flowing, reports even clicking their cameras to captured the picture of him.
"The WHA will handle this situations, you all please go back and let me handle this."
The major general loki decided the barren forest as a Catastrophic restricted area, personnel of KHA ordered everyone to take their time to get back to their normal duties.
Major general loki spotted rose on their team.
'Ohh Isn't that, Rose' He whispered.
Zephyron felt someone was watching him from behind as he walked to the gate, he looked back and saw Vaelkar on their team. He wondered that if there's someone else with them since earlier, he never felt his presence before.
After that, he goes inside the gate.
No words, could be described what he witnessed inside the gate.
A towering tree that reached the sky its vines anchored to the ground it covered the whole world inside the gate.
"Compared to the elven's realm this thing is like the real deal, why would it appears now of all times…" He uttered in a devastated looked and let out a sighed.
On the outside, the team's report everything they did on the gate. On the meantime they scattered and will be contacted again for further details.
Rose and vaelkar went home together.
