Becoming a Monster

Chapter 93 93: I’m Creating Mini Bosses



His cold stare began to show clarity and his drained body had him collapse on his butt as he watched Arachne, wondering what changes had occurred and while that was happening he was able to barely make a smile despite how he felt when he felt that he had another notification.

The first thing he noticed was a purple spear penetrating through the cracks, but when it reached out and bent to touch the ground he realized that it was actually her leg.

Except there were also a few differences besides the shape. Her leg that was covered in hair originally, now appeared to become almost bare. From this distance it appeared that she didn't have hair on the first segment of her leg at all, which is why he ended up mixing up her leg with a weapon.

The white that made a pattern within her hairs disappeared too, leaving only darkness that made up the rest of her hair, but more than disappeared,

It wasn't until the other leg poked through that his tired mind caught up to how long they were. They were at least half the size longer than before and a few inches thicker.

He could sense the urgency for Arachne to remove herself from the cocoon. Not only was she excited to show off her new improvements, during the last few moments of her awakening she was able to sense Noah's chaotic emotions and the battle that was taking place.

Now that her second leg front was able to penetrate through, she stabbed both legs into the ground to forcibly bring out her head, following the rest of her body.

Overall she seemed to have grown only a foot in height, but he felt that was more because of the increase in the length of her legs. However the length of her entire body was also elongated by at least a foot, as well as the circular shape of her back side had flattened some. If it wasn't for Noah's set of extra pupils, it would be extremely difficult to make her out from a shadow if not for the purple ends of her legs.

If her front legs were longer than before, her two back legs could be said to be identical to the front as they extended behind her.

Noah was in awe to see how much more deadly her appearance had become. Even her fangs were enough to give him goosebumps just picturing them digging into his skin, but he was more shocked when he noticed her eyes, they were the same as his. After choosing the class assassin Arachne had lost the ability to see behind her. Her eyes were mainly located on the front and the partial side of her face now.

Even without seeing behind her, her efficiency would only increase since her dynamic vision has been further improved to help her take down her opponents with surprise.

Noah knew that her physical appearance had changed, but now he wondered what else developed with the change. He wanted to quickly get the notifications out the way so he could see the improvements in her stats but when as soon as he had that thought, Arachne had already appeared in front of him.

'So fast!' Noah's heart shook when he realized that her speed was almost as fast as Fenrir 'after' his stats were buffed from his killing instincts skill. His focus wasn't completely on her but deep down he felt that she was even faster than that. Noah's curiosity skyrocketed when he asked himself 'just how fast is she?'.

"Hurt? Where? Where are you hurt? Why is Fenrir not here with you?"

Arachne bombarded him with questions, interrupting him from his thoughts. But to her anxiousness, Noah didn't respond to her at all. He was more focused on something else.

"You can speak now?" He asked with a flabbergasted expression. All this time he has been speaking with her, it was through her own language. Yet the sound coming out her mouth was actual human language. The sound of her voice wasn't perfect, it felt weird to hear. It was almost as if her voice was vibrating when she spoke. Her voice made her sound slightly robotic, he couldn't help but try to look in her jaws to figure out she was communicating.

"? I've always talked? Do you not remember me? I'm Arachne! I'm your queen! You gave me food, we ate tog-"

"Hey hey hey, calm down, I didn't mean it that way, you just…well you're speaking the same as me so that just surprised me. Of course I remember you, how could I forget you?" He responded while placing his palm above her two main eyes and caressed her head like he usually did.

The interaction he was able to have with her in this moment relieved him a lot more than venting off his frustrations on the zombie moments prior. He relished being able to communicate with his creatures and being able to tell how they felt while he communicated with them, there was no reason to doubt their words or their intentions.

But this peaceful moment made him remember why he was feeling this way in the first place.

He stopped rubbing Arachne's head and turned to evaluate Ailetta's situation. He saw that she has yet to awaken. His emotions became downcasted yet again when he remembered her pale like state and the situation she put herself in.

He had half the mind to leave during the night so he wouldn't feel so tormented by these feelings that have been continuing to be brought up when dealing with her. But just the thought alone began to make him feel uneasy. He was sure he would become paranoid about her safety after visualizing her death so many times.

Arachne noticed the emotional changes Noah was going through and looked over to see the cause. Yet when she looked over all she saw was food.

"Is food making you hurt?" She asked when she noticed the 'pain' she felt Noah was experiencing before was similar to what he was feeling now.

"Haha~no…it's just something that is on my mind. But let's worry about it later. I'm curious to check your improvements. However before he could check her stats, he had to go through the list of notifications first.

[Aracane has finished her mutation! All stats have increased by 25% while her strength and agility has been increased by 50% because of her class Rouge. +1 agility and +1 strength will be granted upon leveling up]

[After obtaining class Rogue, Arachne has obtained main skill stealth and chose the ability, Coated Arms.]

[Stealth: Make your presence barely noticeable, leaving you undetected to unsuspecting foes. Noise, attacking or even taking damage could cause you to become noticed. Affected by agility and can be countered by agility and spirit.]

[Coated arms-Imbue your weapons with poison to help you secure the kill when your surprise attack fails. As a spider you use your own poison as a base, but the poison is a lesser version to its original counterpart. Can become stronger with the amount of mana infused into the skill.]

[Your tamed creature, Arachne, has achieved the first limits of 50 stats in strength, perk based on class Arachnid obtained; Painful death]

[Your tamed creature, Arachne, has achieved the first limits of 50 stats in stamina, perk based on class Arachnid obtained; Recovering Leap]

[Caught in the eyes of the spider has leveled up to Lvl 1!- You can now perceive a target's movements by a tenth of a second.

[Painful Death- A numbing corrosive poison isn't enough. To truly disable your opponents, pain is always the best way. Your poison now has a stinging effect that would inflict pain after the first wave of your numbing corrosion.]

[Recovering Leap-Reduce the strain and stamina drain when leaping far distances by 10%.]

[Arachne has leveled up! +5 attributes!]

[Arachne has reached level 10 and can now undergo his evolution! Due to your class 'Monster Evolutionist', Arachne has been given an additional evolution path that is up for you to choose so choose carefully! WARNING! Choose when you are in a safe area, time for evolution is unknown.]

[Arachne evolutionary path Impure Queen, and Vaulting Shadow can be obtained.]

[Impure Queen-You have mixed with something that shouldn't exist, your existence itself has been tainted to the world. Other spiders will despise you for what you are, but they will also fear you. As a queen you will still lead through strength, but who knows what strengths that will be if you follow the path of the tainted.]

[Vaulting Shadow-When there's a shadow, sure enough enemies would take heed or their death will already be determined. Light is your accomplice, because where there is light, there is also shadow. You will gain unimaginable speed fitting to your name and discover ways to bend light so you can benefit the darkness as you desire. No one will be safe from you even in the day.]

"..."

There were a lot of things Noah wanted to say and most of it was just complaints.

'Now that I think about it, where are my perks after obtaining the mage class? And why doesn't Arachne have them either? AND what the fuck do you mean by tainted? I'm not some fucking disease!!' Noah was feeling attacked, what made it worse was that it was the system that was insulting him.

'Sigh…calm down, calm down…maybe it means something else by tainted. Yes that's right! It should be referring to my blood, yep that could be the only thing…' He sounded unsure, but he would continue to say it until he made himself believe it.

He looked back towards Arachne's evolution paths, the choices this time were much harder to choose than Fenrir's. The Impure Queen seemed like the one he really wanted to go for, but that was only because the changes had something to do with him. The only downside is that the description hasn't really told him much of anything of what it does!

The Valuting shadow, everything sounded ominous and Noah's terms 'badass!' And so he was very interested in that class as well.

'I still have a little time to think about it, but….I'm pretty sure I know what I want.' Now he could fully satisfy his curiosity from early as he checked her stats, just to be in for another surprise.

He knew her stats were gonna be increased, especially when he saw how fast she became. But as he looked at all her stats again, specifically her speed that didn't use a skill to increase it to such an extent, he just couldn't help but think.

'And she's not even evolved yet!
