Chapter 317: The Jorōgumo

The entire mountainside appeared to be in the shape of a funnel lying sideways.

The corridor that Kimura Kazuki just passed by was actually a small passageway in the funnel. But now, as he passed by rows of rooms on both sides and stepped into the depths of the mountainside, he was greeted by an extremely spacious area.

Then, his eyes fell on the creature in front of him. 

"Oh, it's you." 

A creature that was about four to five feet tall appeared in his sight. It was a massive spider, hovering in the middle of the web that spanned across the entire area. The spider was crunching down on a beast stuck on the web, taking its time to swallow as venomous green-colored smoke oozed out from its mouth each time it breathed out.
