50 The Spider Queen's Plans!

Name:Card Master System Author:dff123
"Five thousand is nowhere near enough children to take over this entire area successfully."

Within the massive webbing, a dazzling female monster sat on a bloodied throne licking her hands. She was dressed in a pitch-black gown that covered her body. She was stunning, but her eyes were filled with a hint of rage, which made her look monstrous. This was in fact, the Spider Queen!

Underneath her feet was a woman covered in webbing, except, all this woman's vitality was taken from her, so she looked like an old woman when she was only in her early twenties. Allowing some of her very small children in, the children quickly ate the remainder of this woman's corpse before dispersing.

"And what about those scouts we sent out to retrieve more food for us? Can it be that those humans within that small village are deciding to raid us again so soon?" she couldn't help but ask these ten individuals who were kneeling in front of her.

These ten individuals were clearly of the spider tribe just like her, but they all had different types of body builds. One could say, that their different body builds dictated their fighting styles and were due to the monster type mutation like their mother, the Spider Queen.

"Mother, we are still unsure why so any of our little brothers and sisters are dying recently, but as far as we are aware, there are no humans in sight." Replied a woman dressed in a webbing type dress in the shape of small skulls.

This woman was clearly a spider in a human type of form, due to two big fangs sticking out of her mouth. What was even creepier about this woman, was that she had long spider legs sticking out of her back as she used them to hold her human shaped legs off the ground.

"I will be the first to take up arms against any human or non-human unwanted visitors. Please give me this task so that I can prove my loyalty to you, mother!" a bulky and muscular male with two big horns interrupted as he stood up.

This man seemed to be a warrior type with a strong strength-based body build. He had many bulging muscles all over his grey body. However, from the way he was acting, it seemed like he was nothing but a simple meat head that only wanted to fight strong enemies to temper his own strength.

"Very well, if it wasn't for your poor intuition and if you listened to your strategist sister, you would have been able to completely wipe out those humans during their last raid. Instead, we are still forced to hide our army within this cave." Holding her hand up to pause anyone else from speaking, the Spider Queen had a hint of fury within her words.

During the last wave that the village nearby sent out, the spiders were caught completely off guard and they suffered more casualties and deaths than the attacking humans. One of her children led a small army against them and was nearly wiped out himself if it was not for reinforcements arriving in time to drive the rest of the humans off while a single warrior blocked their path.

Since that day, the Spider Queen lost faith in her son even though his build was the strongest out of the ten she chose to feed monster blood to. The Spider Queen only had a limited amount of monster blood that she mixed with other ingredients to cause other spiders in her tribe to mutate and become more intelligent as well as stronger.

Though to her it was not a waste using a portion of that mixture on this son, she still felt that he could have done a much better job. She wanted all her children to lead her armies into battle so that she could remain safe and sound on her throne, but that was an event that changed her plans.

"When we reach over seven thousand spiders within our small clan, I will be contacting that Centaur King so that we can receive enough reinforcements to destroy that human village and hopefully have enough power to destroy that city as well."

"Until then, you ten shall be on guard duty at all times. Not a single spider should be slain until we compile a big enough army, otherwise, it will take more time which we do not have!" the Spider Queen explained as she waved her hands, signaling these ten children of hers to leave her and to begin their new task.

"If that Centaur King can send us reinforcements and enough of that monster blood mixture, I do not care how strong those humans are, I will use that to build my army to new heights and slay them all. After, I will use my own sphere of influence to target the rest of those women in that council who exiled me!"

This Spider Queen played all her cards accordingly and almost took over the whole spider tribe that existed on this planet. However, she was exiled once her blood had been tainted by monster blood. She tried to raise her army against the council, but thanks to their allies, the pure-blooded spider tribe was able to drive her off.

Right now, she was still considered to be on the run, and her hatred for the pure-blooded spiders made her blood boil in intense rage. However, the humans were the main contributor of her failed attempt to become the one Spider Queen who would rule over the rest.

Unfortunately, she had to bide her time since she took an incomplete dose of the mixture. The dose that she took, gave her a powerful mutation, but her strength would never increase to a new level. This meant that she could only build up large armies of children and use that to take over her enemies.

-Back at Leo's location-

"What the-!"

After feeling the need to relax and gather his thoughts on what he should do next, Leo decided to lean against one of the human shaped webbing. What surprised him, was after laying on it for several minutes, the webbing started to shake slightly. Not expecting this, Leo quickly jumped up and darted behind a nearby boulder. The last thing he wanted was for something other than a human to pop out of the webbing and to alert every creature within this cave!
