Thanks to Nakros' skill, I was able to just trail behind.
"...This is a bit weird, but I just realized I never got your na." [Nakros]
I pondered whether or not to give him my real na.
("...Well, Master knows it. Plus, he's my senior disciple... I guess it won't hurt?") [Solace]
"My na is Solace, but I go by Alt." [Solace]
"Alt? Is there so kind of aning behind it?" [Nakros]
"Uh..." [Solace]
I didn't know how to explain the concept of alternative accounts to this guy.
"Not really. It's just a na I made up." [Solace]
"Ah, an alias. I use that sotis too. So, what should I call you?" [Nakros]
"Just call Alt when there are other people around." [Solace]
I thought this could lead to people finding out my identity if Fina ever t him, so I had to place so sort of restriction. Though, letting him know my real na was a pretty high risk regardless.
"If you say so, junior disciple." [Nakros]
It was also then that I realized it didn't matter whether or not he knew my na since Nakros and Master only referred to as "dear disciple" or "junior disciple".
"...You really resemble Master, you know?" [Solace]
"Do I?" [Nakros]
We continued to tread through the mines, freezing every hand sized spider along the way. Sotis we would et a giant one, but Nakros would just sohow slice it in half with a wave of his hand.
"What martial art is that?" [Solace]
"It's |Wind Chasing Arts|. The skill itself was called |Wind Chasing Fingers|." [Nakros]
"Wait, there are sub-skills to arts?" [Solace]
"As you continue to develop it, yes." [Nakros]
That had wondering what I would eventually unlock from |Vortex Arts| and |Explosive Arts|.
"I think we're nearing the Arachnid Queen." [Nakros]
"How do you know?" [Solace]
He then pointed to the webbing that lined the walls.
"What about them? We saw those on the way too." [Solace]
"Watch." [Nakros]
Picking up a pebble, he tossed it at the webbing. I thought it would just stick, but I was shocked to see it lt the instant it touched the wall.
"The Arachnid Queen has acidic webbing. Make sure not to touch it." [Nakros]
Nodding in agreent, we went in further. The narrow mines soon began to open up, leaving us in a large cavern covered in webbing. Thankfully, the floor was left untouched.
"So, where-" [Solace]
"Shh!" [Nakros]
Holding a finger over his mouth, he pointed upwards.
("Up?") [Solace]
Upon raising my sight, horror befell . I saw the largest spider I had ever seen.
("Dear gods...") [Solace]
It appeared the cavern had expanded upwards, sohow holding in a black spider the size of approximately... I dunno... twelve elephants? It was very big.
"It hasn't noticed us yet." [Nakros]
He spoke in a low voice so as to not alert the monster. I could tell with its eight red beady eyes it was working on sothing else within its webs.
"Junior Disciple, you can leave now if you'd like." [Nakros]
He stared at with concern. Nakros originally pulled in to help kill it, but perhaps he saw the expression I was making in order to change his mind.
("Should I leave...?") [Solace]
I wanted to leave, I really did. However, the gar in told otherwise. Just looking at that monster gave chills and excited at the thought of how much |Experience| I would receive.
"Let consider it for a second." [Solace]
Staring at the monster, there was only one thing to check.
"|Analyze|." [Solace]

Looking at that, I had so many questions and thoughts.
("First of all, my god those stats. Second of all, why does it have the title of swordsman?!") [Solace]
There were many things that didn't add up to . At monts like these, I would have run. Nonetheless, I stayed. Why? There was one simple reason.
"Nakros, what do you think your chances are of beating this thing?" [Solace]
"One hundred percent." [Nakros]
