Bab 239: 239. Coincidentally Meeting Kumo-chan Again
Izumi spent a few days creating new techniques with his Devil Fruit power. However, he felt it wasn't enough. Creating new techniques is very easy because he has complete control over his Devil Fruit power. Unfortunately though, what he lacks is strength.
"What to do?" Izumi pondered for a while.
He lit his eyes, but then frowned. It was clear that he had an idea. Still, he wasn't sure if his idea would work or completely waste it.
"First of all, let's find a dragon."
And sure enough, what Izumi thought to become stronger was to merge his blood and cells with dragon's. Due to his dragon slayer magic, his body was too sensitive to dragon blood. Only by being bathed in dragon blood, his blood and cells can mutate without having to use dragon slayer magic first. There was no doubt he would be stronger, but he might lose his sanity if he lost control of his new power.
Yet, Izumi was actually thinking something even crazier. Take Son Goku as an example. Son Goku transformed into a super ape after being triggered by a full moon. Though, he completely lost control over his power. Once his sanity returned, he managed to control and condense his power so that he could transform into Super Saiyan 4.
If Izumi turned into a dragon, then he managed to control and condense his power, wouldn't he become a Super Dragonian with four thousand times of power?
"Gehehe, this would be interesting. My own version of Super Saiyan." Izumi grinned while thinking of the possibility.

When the clear sky was replaced by the pitch darkness of the night, Izumi walked in a certain direction carrying two bottles full of dragon blood.
"Ugh, what should I do? Drinking blood directly does have a higher effectiveness than bathing in blood. But…" Izumi shook his head. "Well, let's leave it for later."
Unknowingly, he flew toward a fairly large city in Keren county. It was the territory of the noble. To be exact, it was Sophia's family territory.
"Hmmm?"
Izumi felt a familiar presence.
His sight switched to the presence he sensed earlier. Then, he put a smile on his face.
"Oh, she has evolved? Her strength has increased drastically. Well, it's too bad that her strength still doesn't match that lolita demon king yet." Izumi said inwardly while sensing Kumoko killing people one by one.
Izumi felt an aura escaping from Kumoko, Kumoko noticed it too, but she let that person go while watching that person with her new skill, clairvoyant.
"Let's see if I can use him since Kumo-chan didn't kill him."
Izumi immediately jumped into action by chasing that person while flying. Then, he took out a small object from the storage space. When he was close enough, he threw the object and stuck it to that person's body.
After that, Izumi stopped chasing. He looked at Kumoko's position and headed towards it.
Kumoko saw Izumi who was approaching her and shouted.
"Traitor!! Why did you leave me? I almost died, you know!"
Since meeting Izumi, Kumoko has become talkative because Izumi speaks the same language. Different from the many people and monsters she had encountered since she was born. With the difference in language, it became difficult for her to communicate. And besides the parallel thoughts she frequently communicated with, there was only one person she had ever spoken the same language with before meeting Izumi. And that person was none other than Wakaba Hīro on earth.
When hearing Kumoko's annoyed voice, Izumi answered.
"Hey, hey, don't you want to evolve into an Arachne? If you don't struggle to raise your level, how long do you want to continue to be a spider?"
"But I..."
Kumoko didn't know what to say. It was true, if she wanted to evolve, at the very least, she would have to struggle to level up.
"I actually wanted to help you. But, it's your fault that you disobeyed your mother, isn't it?"
Kumoko immediately fell silent. If she obeyed her mother's orders, she would not be chased by her mother and her entire species.
But Kumoko is a person, well now she can't be considered a person, but a spider. Kumoko just wants to be free and doesn't want to be ordered by her mother. Therefore, like it or not, she had to refuse an order from her mother.
Izumi said again.
"Another thing, since you escaped from your mother, I'm sure that lolita will find you."
"That lolita?"
Izumi didn't mention who the lolita was. Of course, what Izumi meant was Ariel, the demon lord. If possible, Izumi wanted to meet her, but he didn't want to be seen as her enemy.
Izumi asked to change the topic.
"By the way, did D just contact you?"
Kumoko suddenly stiffened. From that reaction, Izumi had already guessed.
"So she contacted you. And somehow, you can't keep a secret about me since what's on your mind can be read by her, right?"
Izumi sighed. Despite the time difference between the 2 worlds, D can still communicate with Kumoko at any time. At the very least, D couldn't observe Izumi directly. If she could, there was no way she would ask Kumoko.
"How did you know? You can read my mind too?"
"You think I'm someone who can read people's minds?"
"Then?"
"You could say, I know almost everything about you, reincarnators, administrators, the demon lord, the elves, and D."
Izumi's words made no sense. Inwardly, Kumoko said.
"Are you walkingpedia? Who are you really?"
Kumoko is very curious about Izumi's identity. Obviously, he is Japanese. However, it was very strange for Izumi to know everything even though D said earlier that Izumi came from the earth.
Izumi crossed his arms, he looked at Kumoko for a while.
"Actually, I wanted to tell you everything about why you were reincarnated into this world, who else was reincarnated, who was D, and so on, including me. However, you can't even protect your secret from D. Why would I tell you if what I said would end up being known by her."
"It's not my fault okay!" Kumoko snapped, then she added inwardly "It was impossible not to think of anything when asked by her. She was always baiting me with some questions that would fill my mind."
Izumi slapped his forehead. He sighed and sat down beside Kumoko.
"Never mind. So, what have you gained after you evolved?"
Slowly but surely, Kumoko told him everything as if she completely trusted Izumi. She said that her taboo skill had already reached the maximum level. With that maxed-out skill, Kumoko received information that the life energy in her new world was running low due to the actions of the natives who discovered the energy core. This caused half of the world to be uninhabitable and died due to the increasingly depleted energy core.
Even though Kumoko got that information, she didn't know who was the mastermind behind causing her world to approach a crisis of destruction.
"You'll find out later. After all, your strength isn't enough to overcome the destruction of the world. You better level up first!"
Kumoko looked at Izumi silently. Izumi didn't look surprised at all by Kumoko's statement. She marveled, what the heck did he not know about? He seemed to know everything about the world she lived in. While Kumoko's mind was full of questions about Izumi. Izumi blatantly uses his holographic computer. She was instantly dumbfounded.
Moments later, she shouted.
"Wait! Wait! What the hell is that!????"
"What's wrong? I'm just spying and recording on the elf that you let go."
Kumoko just remembered that she should also be spying on the elf. Then she decided to ask later and looked at the holographic computer screen showing an elf running with all his might.
This surprised Kumoko. D had told Kumoko that Izumi and she were from the same world. However, she doesn't remember any advanced technology that Izumi is currently showing. That's why she got confused.
Izumi didn't just watch, he also recorded since the elf returned to his base and met Potimas where he decided to carry out his next plan. Just like what Izumi once said, the elves in this world are rotten to the core. Not only do they plan to capture all reincarnators, but they also decide to kill reincarnators when they are deemed dangerous.
Kumoko turned to Izumi and asked.
"I wonder, how do you have a computer like this?"
"I created it."
"Created? Impossible."
Kumoko couldn't believe that Izumi who came from the same world could create such technology. Izumi just shrugged his shoulders and then answered with a smile.
"Well, it's up to you to believe it or not."
Then, Izumi ignored Kumoko and stood up. Izumi said that he wanted to go to Keren county and couldn't take Kumoko with him. He also said that he couldn't take her unless Kumoko had evolved and had a fully human form.
Hearing about "full human form", Kumoko's eyes lit up. She didn't know whether what Izumi said was true or not, but it could be said that there was a chance to evolve and have a fully human form after Arachne's evolution.
Before Izumi left, he reminded Kumoko.
"Be careful! The demon lord is already eyeing you. She can come to you at any time."
Then Izumi disappeared and his last words before leaving left her confused.
