Chapter 35: Chapter 35
When the spider fell, it bumped into another spider which became furious and began to attack its sibling.
Nero, seeing this, felt anger rising in her chest. Creating a dark arrow, her eyes flashed violet, and she shot another arrow in the direction of the spider that attacked the spider that lost its legs.
*Swoosh!*
Of course, Nero didn't do this out of pity for the spider, but rather because seeing this reminded her of the unpleasant dreams she had been having and she was reminded of the wicked sister of the girl Nera.

Without wasting time, Nero created a dark arrow and launched it at the legless spider.
*Swoosh!*

"That was incredible, Nero!" Choko hugged Nero seeing that she had finished killing 2 spiders so easily.
"I'm surprised at your aim," Jana said with a smile.
Jair pointed out, "There are still two spiders next to the ones that Nero killed. If Nero wants to plunder them, she will need to draw the attention of those other two first."
"Leave it to me. I'll get their attention and you guys can kill them," said Jana and she quickly created a fireball in each hand.
*Boom!* *Booom!*
The spiders that were attacked by the fireballs became irritated and ran towards the party with their eight legs each. The speed of these spiders was not something to be underestimated. At almost 100 cm, these spiders could quickly cover great distances. If it were not for the lack of intelligence exhibited by these spiders, it would not have been so easy to kill them.
Breno, Jair, and Choko went to intercept the spiders that were approaching, while Jana stayed back to give support.
"Nero, take this opportunity to use plunder on the spiders you killed," Jana said.
Nero nodded and went towards the two spider carcasses.

'Now that I have 10 Monster Cores, I can level up,' Nero thought, but since the cores she had were 4 level 5's and 1 level 6, she thought it was better to wait and get some level 4 monster cores, and then she could level up.
As time passed, Nero, Choko, Jair, Breno, and Jana continued to exterminate the spiders.
Nero, with great concentration, pulled the bowstring and the sound of the air being cut echoed throughout the room. *Swoosh!* The arrow shot out at high speed and hit the spider. As there was no alert coming from the system, Nero shot another arrow.
*Swoosh!*
*Beng!*
With the sound of arrows cutting the wind, there followed the sound of flesh tearing and blood dripping.

"Ah, this is incredible, Nero! You have impeccable aim~" Choko's eyes were set on Nero were pure adoration; she was jumping for joy while clapping loudly. Choko, who couldn't stand her excitement, hugged Nero, pressing her big, soft breasts into Nero's breasts.
'Soft,' Nero recorded secretly in her heart. Perhaps because she was a man before, being hugged so vigorously by Choko didn't cause Nero discomfort. In fact, it was quite pleasant for her.
"There you go again, hugging Nero," Jana said with a sigh.
"But... it's really good to hug her," Choko pouted when saying. "You should try it!"
"No, thank you." Jana rejected Choko's suggestion outright. It wasn't that she thought it would be unpleasant; rather she just didn't want to admit she'd like to hug Nero as well.
"You smell good," Nero noted to Choko with a smile.
"Oh... Really?" Hearing this, Choko stopped hugging Nero and started to smell herself. "My smell is normal, I think."
"It must be because you are already used to your own smell, Choko," replied Nero.
Choko pondered a moment and said, "I see, that must be it."
"Hrm, wouldn't it be best for us to go over there and help them?" Nero suddenly asked. Not far away, Breno and Jair were fighting 3 giant spiders.
"Yes, I'll go now," Choko said and immediately ran at high speed towards the three spiders to help Jair and Breno.
"Nero, as you can easily kill spiders on your own, we don't want to delay your performance. You can continue to kill on your own while we will deal with these," said Jana. She realized that, deep down, this was already what Nero wanted to do, so she suggested it.
"Yes," Nero smiled.
In fact, it was as Jana thought: Nero wanted to fight spiders alone and increase the number of monsters killed. Only then would she be able to level up and finish the second floor of the dungeon.
This time, Nero did not want to use her bow, so she kept it in her inventory. Starting with something simpler, she closed her eyes and began to manifest a small ball the size of a tennis ball made of dark mana.
Seeing a giant spider next to the level 6 spider that she already killed and needing to move the living one away to use plunder on the other one, Nero threw the magic shadow ball at the spider.
*Whoosh!*
*Booom!*
"..."
Unfortunately for Nero, she missed her mark. In fact, she made a big mistake, seeing as the ball passed about 3 to 4 meters away from the spider. Although she was used to throwing things, she had only done it before with stones, but the size and weight was very different, so the control when throwing the mana ball was different from the feeling she had when throwing a stone.
'Tsk!' Nero chastised herself for thinking it would be easy and made a new magic ball out of shadows. In the meantime, the spider noticed danger due to the attack before, and because of this, the giant spider was running furiously towards Nero.
