Chapter 325 Silkara

Chapter 325 Silkara

In the end, Dante managed to placate the jealous Beatrice and convinced her that they could get her a matching physique too when the time was right. As it were, the two descended right into the Apocalypse World to continue with their agenda.

Naturally, Dante chose the familiar lair of the Spider Queen from back then, wondering how it had developed after around a year or more of free time plus the resources he gave it. Due to Beatrice by his side, he did not immediately enter the cavern but chose to appear a bit away from the webbed-up forest that usually formed the spider queen's domain.

What surprised both Dante and Beatrice was that, with a casual scan of their spirit sense, they could detect that even the outside of the forest was choked with spiderlings at the F rank and even Spider Warriors at the E rank guiding them.

The duo casually walked through the forest while in subspace, meaning that the spiders could see them but not touch them. What was strange though, was that the spiders did not seem to bear any hostility towards the two.

They did react strongly at first but seemed to receive a command from somewhere and then continued about their business casually. Dante and Beatrice decided to travel faster and teleported directly through the forest into the cavern, which had been totally renovated.

Not only was it now illuminated by lights, there was even electricity and various modern gadgets within. Along with that were many human decorations and effects, which were shockingly being used by humanoid spiders!

The Rank D Spider Lords that were previously sleek spiders similar to black widows were now on their two legs. They were only humanoid in shape, retaining spider features that would make them horrific to any human in terms of aesthetics, but this change alone was quite significant.

They stopped what they were doing and bowed in a gentlemanly manner towards the duo as they traversed downwards, leaving Dante and Beatrice amused and interested. The further down they went, the less cavern there was and the more it resembled an underground castle.

Tapestries, curtains, and even chandeliers. The extent of the decoration showed that there was not only a sense of aesthetics among the current spider clan, but a sense of class too.

Spiders of different grades appeared as they went downward. The previous C Rank Spider Champions who were queen's guard were now normal spiders that were slightly more humane than those above, with fewer spider features and a smattering of human features.

They also paid respects to the duo, up until they reached the next area with B-rank spiders, then what they assumed to be A-Rank spiders. Surprisingly, Dante and Beatrice even saw S, SS, and SSS Rank spiders that were extremely powerful and were practically fully humanoid with very few spider traits.

They even spoke to them in passing, greeting them with respect with titles like 'Supreme Benefactor' and especially for Dante, 'the Lord of Fire and Void'. This naturally made Beatrice glance at Dante askance, who could only shrug.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.

After all, when he slaughtered them in the past to grow, he had only used his early hellfire as well as weaker space spells to deal with them, so it likely left a strong memory for them.

Her eyes brightened as she raised her head and nodded towards Beatrice. "Thank you, madam... no, benefactor. I will remember these words."

Beatrice smiled casually. "Sure, sure, it would just be a waste for you to become someone else's harem wife number 4 or something."

Beatrice put the matter out of her mind, allowing Dante to cough and attract the attention over to himself with a smile. "We came here not to fight nor copulate, but to assess your progress. I see that my resources have given you a strong foundation to advance rather quickly, which is good."

"Rather than your body, in return for my investment, I would like your loyalty. In a year or two, earliest by a few months, I will return here to come and take you away to a wider world." Dante stated his intentions plainly.

"No problem, I will be at your service benefactor. Call on me anytime you need." The Spider Queen responded without hesitation.

Dante and Beatrice smiled with satisfaction and left the cavern with a single teleport. The Spider Queen was not surprised by their abilities at this point and could not help but glance at the bed with a disappointed expression.

She had hoped to acquire the seed of Dante and give birth to the ultimate Spider God as their son. Still, she thought about Dante's command and smiled, knowing that she would soon be able to achieve much more than this.

She especially thought of Beatrice's advice and realized that she was being limited by her own genetics and instinctual conceptions. She was now a higher form of being compared to a mere Spider Queen having evolved this much.

She might not be able to match Dante or Beatrice, but she was already at the peak of the EX Rank in this world, a power that very few could even dare to think of challenging. To call herself the Spider Goddess would not be arrogance nor would it be an exaggeration.

"Spider Goddess... I am the Spider Goddess!" The Spider Queen, now Spider Goddess, told herself repeatedly until she firmly accepted it.

"Dante and Beatrice... they have names, but I only have a title. That's not good. I should also have a name, but what should I even call myself?" She muttered to herself when she realized this problem.

She glanced around and at her own body trying to think of something when her eyes fell on the silks covering her bed. Immediately, a flash shot through her mind, and she muttered something in a near daze.

"Silkara..."

She snapped out of it and immediately felt excitement. "Silkara... that's right, my name will be Silkara from henceforth!" "Silkara, The Spider Goddess!"
