Villain Ch 907. Spider Queen
"Oh, I have every right to be grumpy. You've made me as wet as a drowning cat," Allen retorted, his tone clearly annoyed. His hair, dark and plastered to his face, coupled with his black armor, did indeed give him the appearance of a drenched, disgruntled cat. Jane couldn't help but laugh again, the humor providing a brief respite from the tension.
"Ah... my little prey is mad~," teased Arcanis, her lips curling into a mocking grin. "But there's nothing you can do, dear."
Her words dripped with condescension, and Allen's companions tensed, ready to strike. Vivian's whip was ready, Zoe's tentacles twitched in anticipation, and Shea's blade wings gleamed ominously. But before they could act, Allen raised his hand, signaling them to hold back. His eyes never left Arcanis.
"So you think I can't do anything?" Allen asked, his voice steady and cold.
Arcanis narrowed her eyes, a hint of curiosity and suspicion flickering across her face. "Isn't that indeed the case? My thread can't be untied by anything," she replied confidently.
Allen's mind raced as he analyzed the situation. The thread around his ankle was strong, but it wasn't unbreakable. So he wanted to do a little experiment.
"Let's test that theory," Allen said, his voice calm but edged with determination. He summoned his strength and pulled the thread as hard as he could. The pool around him began to ripple, reacting to his power.
Arcanis watched with interest, her mocking grin widening. "Oh, how cute. The little prey wants to struggle. Go ahead, amuse me."
'Hmm... It seems that anyone who enters this trap indeed cannot get out in a normal way,' thought Allen as he assessed his situation. The thread around his ankle was tight, and he could feel its strength.
With a swift, brutal motion, Arcanis snatched Allen in her spider legs, lifting him from the water and bringing him closer to her. Her grip was crushing, the chitinous appendages wrapping tightly around his body, squeezing the air from his lungs.
"DIE!" she screamed, her eyes blazing with murderous intent. She raised one of her scythe-like hands, the blade gleaming wickedly in the dim light. She swung it down with deadly precision, intending to cut Allen into two.
But Allen, even in her grasp, remained calm. A smirk played at the corners of his lips as he whispered, "Shadow Step." Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire
In an instant, Allen's form dissolved into shadows, slipping through Arcanis's grasp like smoke. Her scythe hand sliced through empty air, the force of her attack sending a shockwave through the water. Allen reappeared behind his companions, his body materializing from the shadows with seamless grace.
Arcanis's eyes widened in disbelief and frustration as she realized her prey had slipped away. She spun around, her movements frantic and erratic, her gaze darting wildly across the chamber.
"My prey! Where is my prey?!" Arcanis let out another scream, her rage and frustration palpable. Her massive form trembled with fury, her spider legs twitching as she scanned the room for Allen. The air was thick with tension, the aftermath of the dark storm still crackling with residual energy.
Allen, now standing safely behind his companions, took a moment to catch his breath. His smirk widened into a grin as he locked eyes with Arcanis. "Is that the best you can do?" he taunted, his voice dripping with mockery. "I expected more from a 'great' spider queen."
Arcanis's eyes blazed with anger. "You insolent little wretch!" she hissed, her voice echoing through the cavern. "I will tear you apart!"
Allen chuckled, his tone casual and confident. "You're welcome to try, but it looks like you're not having much luck." He glanced at the remnants of the storm still swirling in the water, then back at Arcanis. "Face it, you're outmatched."
Vivian, standing beside Allen, added her own taunt, her voice laced with defiance. "You should have stayed hidden in your little trap. Now you've bitten off more than you can chew."
