Super Spark of Duper Pride [OB] - Act II: Deconstruction

4-5: The Reason (Spider 73)

Spider 73:

Taboo: [Atone]

Nai wa...

I can't believe I actually forgot about Fei, again no less.

Like seriously, what the actual hell is wrong with me?

At least she is okay, hopefully.

I mean, it doesn't sound like she was attacked as soon as she got to the World Turtle, so she should be safe as long as she doesn't venture further in.

Speaking of, how oddly specific that the oversized sea turtle is facing north while idling, the fact being mentioned in the description and all.

Is it to help passing sailors orientate themselves?

Or perhaps, a hint that something is to the north of there?

Man, I really want to check it out for myself, but y'know, priorities?

How exactly am I gonna deal with Mother?

I am nowhere near ready to take her on.

...Back on the grind again, I guess.

Nai wa, sounds like a huge pain in the butt, but I suppose I gotta get that Arachne Evolution anyway, so killing two stones with one bird isn't so bad.

Taboo: [Atone]

Raitoburu: "Individual ??? ????? has evolved into ???? ??????.

Condition satisfied, acquired Skill [Immortality].

Condition satisfied, acquired Title [Champion]..."

Blah blah blah, I don't really have the energy to care right now...

Holup, [Immortality]!?

Wisdom-sama: < [Immortality]: The user can no longer die within the W System. >

...Nani!?

Isn't this basically a cheat Skill!?

Why do I suddenly have it!?

I mean, not that I am complaining, it will definitely come in handy against Mother and all, but still, why?

And hang on, [Champion]?

Wisdom-sama: < [Champion]: The owner has been recognised as a champion by an Administrator. >

An Administrator? Don't tell me...

Taboo: [Atone]

Then suddenly, something hit the top of my head.

Ouch! What the-

D: "Hello there, Kumoko."

It was a phone that fell on me, with you-know-who speaking through it.

...

D: "Hello? Why are you ignoring me?"

...Yeah, I am not dealing with this sheet.

So I began to walk away.

Hm, where to next?...

D: "Oh, would you look at that, a spider destruction button."

Shit!

I quickly ran back to pick up the phone.

"I am here! I am here! Why do you even have something like that?!"
