[Hello Morgana. It's me, Lilith]
"Lilith?" Tilting my head, I gazed at the golden notification with confusion written on my face. "Who are you?"
As if responding to my query, another golden notification materialized.
[Ahem... Sorry, Morgana, I've forgotten that you would lose your memories.]
[My name is Lilith, and I'm the entity who brought you to this world.]
"OOHH! I see... you're that powerful entity that I made a deal with," I exclaimed, nodding in recognition, recalling the first time I opened my eyes in this world.
"So, why are you contacting me?" I inquired, stepping back from the colossal spider and settling on a thick, dead branch lying on the cave floor.
[I know you have many questions, Morgana, and I would love to answer them all, but unfortunately, I cannot. What you're witnessing now is merely a recorded message that I left for you when I was designing the system.]
"I see," I nodded, crossing my arms and awaiting the golden words to change once more.
[Since I was going to fall into a deep slumber, I left some messages to assist you. They will only trigger when you reach certain milestones, find specific locations, or encounter special events.]
"Intriguing," I murmured, gazing at the golden words.
'She prepared all of this for me... Do we have a unique relationship?' I wondered.
[Morgana, please keep in mind that some of the messages may not make sense to you. That's because I recorded them before discovering that you might lose your memory during the rebirth. I only managed to edit the important ones, but the rest I left as-is due to the limited time frame.]
"Okay... It would be fascinating to unravel my identity and personality based on the messages Lilith has left for me," I said, flashing a smile as I waited for the golden words to shift once again.
[What you are witnessing now, Morgana, is called an "Extinction-level event." With the way my world operates, I expect you will encounter this event frequently.]
[To put it simply, the Extinction-level event warning means that one of the races is on the verge of extinction.]
"WHAT!" I exclaimed, leaping from my seat in shock. "A race will go extinct?"
"How? Why?" I yelled, panicking. "Who? Which race?"
"Don't tell me," slowly shifting my gaze to the giant spider corpse. "No fucking way... the spider is still alive!"
I didn't need her confirmation to know that this spider was the cause of this extinction event and was probably the last of its race.
[I can guess what you're thinking now, Morgana, and yes, you're right. A race will become extinct if you don't intervene.]
"Me?" I gasped, staring at the golden words in disbelief. "Why me?"
"I'm no hero... I'm just a simple girl with a dick, trying to survive in this horny world while having some fun."
[Again, I understand your thoughts, Morgana, and I'm sorry, but I have no one else to turn to but you.]
"Why?" I asked, simply voicing my thoughts, not expecting a response.
[You are a Breeder, Morgana, a unique race that you and I have carefully crafted. The ability to breed and give birth to any creature is the key to saving a race from extinction.]
"I see," I said, slumping my shoulders. "In the end, it all comes back to my dick and pussy."
"Why am I not surprised?" I sighed, shaking my head and shifting my gaze to the colossal spider corpse.
[As the creator of this world, you can think of me as a Breeder, like you, Morgana. My strength comes from the races that inhabit this world, and if one goes extinct, I lose a part of my power, and my resurrection would take longer.]
"..."
'That explains a lot.'
[The good news is that you're here. At higher levels, you will gain the ability to give birth to hybrids, thus creating new races with mixed bloodlines. The more races that exist, the faster my resurrection would be.]
"Yeah, yeah... my womb is the key to your salvation," I sighed, knowing that my body is nothing but a tool, but somehow, I'm not bothered by it, and deep down, I'm ready to do anything for this entity, 'Lilith.'
'We definitely have a strong relationship.'
"So... what do I have to do?" I asked, approaching the spider corpse and touching it.
I found out that the skin was hard and rough, the legs were sharp enough to cut through a tree, and the mandibles... let's just say I don't want to be on the receiving end.
"How am I going to breed with a half-spider?" I asked, gazing down at its abdomen. "If I recall correctly, spiders store their eggs in a special sac under their abdomens."
There was a good chance of finding some eggs inside the sac, but impregnating myself with them wouldn't be easy. However, more golden words materialized before my eyes.
[Morgana, please be safe, okay? You are more important to me than anything else.]
[I am willing to let everything in this world go extinct if it means you will be safe, so if you ever find yourself in a situation where you can't save a race from extinction, just abandon it.]
[Don't do anything stupid, my love.]
'Oh, wow...' I thought, reading the words with wide eyes. 'Someone is in love.'
"Heh! You're such a fool, Lilith," the words escaped my lips, bringing a smile to my face. "Thank you, Lilith, and yes, I'll be fine."
"You're really important to me too, even if I don't remember you."
After saying that, the golden words disappeared, and I was left alone with the huge spider corpse. "Now... how am I going to--"
"!!!" I froze, my instincts kicking in, and I immediately shifted to my wolf form. I felt something was watching me with cold eyes.
Crack!
Slowly raising my eyes, I saw the spider's corpse move its mandibles, cracking them a few times before opening its eyes and staring at me.
"H-Hello... I'm Morgana, and I'm here to save your race," I greeted with a nervous smile, waving my hand at the colossal spider that was gazing at me.
"..."
The spider's eyes glared at me for a second, then slowly, it brought one of its legs towards me. It stopped a few feet away as if waiting for something.
"Umm... what are you doing?" I asked, eyeing the spider leg and wondering if it was an attack or not.
"..."
The spider didn't answer, only shaking its legs a little, and that's when I understood that it wanted me to touch it.
"Oh!... Okay," I nodded, stretching my arm and touching its leg. "What now?"
Ding!
The familiar dinging sound echoed in my ears, followed by the system's notification.
...
[You have found a Hidden Quest!]
[Quest: The Last Spider Queen
Description: A race is on the edge of extinction, with only one member remaining. The spider queen is the last female of her kind, and she's ready to entrust the survival of her race and her essence to you.
Objective: Pass the Spider Queen's trial and earn her favor.
Rewards: The Spider Queen's essence, the spider form, and a new unique structure, "The Nightmare Tower"
Time limit: 14 days, 6 hours, and 45 minutes (Note: This is the time it would take for the queen to die)
Failure: The extinction of the spider race, the death of the spider queen, and the permanent loss of the rewards]
...
"Alright... this is a big quest," I said, closing the window and taking a deep breath as I looked into the spider queen's eyes. "I'll save your race."
"...!" The spider's eyes lit up for a second before turning dim again.
'She can understand me?' I thought, feeling the spider leg I was holding—it was cold and hard.
The spider slowly lifted its leg, as if it wanted to bring me closer to her. I complied, following its movement and approaching the spider's belly, which was impaled by the thick tree root.
She slowly guided my hand to her belly, which began to glow purple. Before I had a chance to ask her about it, a notification appeared.
[Do you want to take The Spider Queen's Trial?]
[Yes/No]
[Caution: The trial will transport you into a separate dimension, and you won't be able to leave until you complete or fail the trial.]
Understanding the risk, I was about to press 'Yes' when multiple warnings appeared before my eyes.
[Warning! Warning!]
[Hostile life forms have been detected near your territory.]
"WHAT!" I yelled, quickly opening the map and looking at my home. Finding nothing there, I switched to the goblin cave, where I saw hundreds of red dots making their way toward the cave.
"Those little fuckers," I cursed, identifying the eight spider rats I had previously marked among the red dots.
"So, my cave was their target. But why? And how?" I muttered, searching for Fenrir and the others on the map. They were going about their usual activities, unaware of the impending danger.
"Shit... this is bad," I cursed, looking up at the spider queen. "My family is in danger. I'll be back when I deal with this," I said, quickly activating my 'Return' skill and teleporting away.
Hello everyone! How are you all doing?
