章 15: Gem Spider

"So, do you mind telling me why your weapons are a knife and a fork?" Melting Snow asked, looking curious.

"You're asking me that now? We are about to go into battle." Xinya replied, huffing.

"Right…" Melting Snow said, regaining his focus. "Tell me afterwards."

They started to walk deeper into the cave very cautiously. So far they have seen neither the Lapis nor the spider. The farther they traveled inside with the absence of anything, the more creeped out they felt.

The only positive aspect of this situation was that the cave wasn't dark, as one would have expected. Instead, it was illuminated by mushroom-type plants growing all around. Xinya made a note to himself to gather some on his way back.
