Especially Phili with his bad temper.
But Phili couldn't make any retort.
Far from getting angry, he trembled like a frightened dog.
"I told you to stay out of my sight. Yet you had to enroll here and even have overlapping classes."
"I-I didn't co intentionally, Father..."
"Phili."
Prince Leon spoke still with a smiling face.
Taking advantage of the professors' argunt, quietly so other students couldn't hear.
"Drop out."
"What?"
"Submit a withdrawal form. Get out of here."
"...His Majesty the King told to attend Erald School."
Leon placed his hand on Phili's shoulder.
When he applied force to that grip, Phili felt pain as if his shoulder would break.
"Agh!"
"Shut up, don't make a sound."
"Kuh, kuugh!"
"I don't care about your circumstances, just drop out. Soone like you doesn't deserve to learn anything. Drop out!"
His shoulder was terribly painful, but he couldn't even scream because of the order to shut up.
Tears welled up in Phili's eyes.
Just as the gathered tears were about to stream down.
Grip.
Rania grabbed Prince Leon's wrist.
"What are you doing?"
"There was sothing on Your Highness's wrist."
"What? Kugh!"
He couldn't say anything to such an absurd excuse.
It felt like his wrist was caught in iron tongs.
Just as Leon was about to scream. This ti the Knight Commander's son who stood by his side grabbed Rania's wrist.
"How dare you lay hands on His Highness, you've got so nerve."
"How dare you lay hands on a lady, you've got so nerve."
Rania threw it right back at him.
Though her wrist was grabbed by a much larger hand, Rania's expression didn't change at all.
Even the Knight Commander's son was surprised by her composure.
Just as this test of strength was about to begin.
"Pfft."
Phili wiped his face again.
That damn spider web had touched his face again.
Really, how did spiders get into the dungeon to make such webs...
"W-what is this."
But this spider web was unusually tough.
It pulled his hair enough to hurt.
That's when Phili looked up at the ceiling.
At that mont.
He thought he was seeing hallucinations.
Because there was sothing impossible on the ceiling.
A sound that was neither scream nor sigh escaped Phili's lips.
"Ah, ahh..."
The instant dungeon has traps but no monsters.
It only mimics dungeons from sowhere, it can't replicate the monsters living in those dungeons.
So there shouldn't be any monsters here originally.
Insects might be present since they could enter from outside.
But such huge spider monsters.
And multiple spiders stuck in every hollow of the ceiling...
How long had they been hiding?
No, did they crawl out from inside?
One spider dropped suddenly.
Onto the Knight Commander's son's head.
A spider as big as a large dog fell without making a sound.

But when it buried its venomous fangs into his nape.
"Kyaaaah!"
The scream rang out thunderously.
He frantically tried to remove the spider stuck to his head.
And when he stomped on it hard, pop went the spider's belly.
"Uh, uah, uwaah!"
But his nape had already swollen grotesquely.
He made wheezing sounds as if struggling to breathe.
"S-spiders!"
Phili scread.
As if it were a signal, dozens of spiders poured down from the ceiling.
Above Phili's head too...
Ping!
Just then, a beam pierced through a falling spider.
Looking back.
Obern was pointing his staff this way.
The spiders crawled across the ceiling heading that way too.
==
I'm fortunate to have Pelerian.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have known what this sudden situation was about.
"It's a summoning trap."
'Really?'
"There's no other explanation."
It seems a summoning trap existing sowhere here activated.
It summoned monsters from designated coordinates.
There was a reason why such a rare summoning trap happened to be here.
"Desert necromancers use a lot of summoning magic. Among them, bug handlers are especially common. They likely had a hand in this dungeon."
Spider handlers, they must be absolute villains.

[Ruin Sand Babun lv22]
──────────────
They definitely looked a bit different from the creepy spiders I saw in the great forest.
If I had to say, they looked more dried out?
Individual ones don't seem that strong but there are too many.
Especially around those children, they were already swarming.
Even if everyone else dies, I plan to save Amain and his friends.
'Go Obern!'
'H-how!'
But Obern couldn't rush right in.
Co to think of it, Obern is very tall.
aning his body is heavy.
With spiders swarming from the ceiling, he's not capable of rushing in while ignoring the traps.
Seeing so spiders get impaled by spears shows the traps are still active.
Plus spiders are coming this way too.
Quite a lot of them.
"Why, why are they coming this way!"
The first-year students hiding behind scread.
Because unusually many spiders were swarming this way.
'Ah, that's why!'
The side effect from eating the Crimson Tarantula King's inner core long ago.
It said 'inexplicably draws hostility from spider-type monsters.'
That snowballed into this.
Can't be helped. Let's try killing the spiders first.
'Die!'
「Using Interdiate Elental Magic: Wind lv2.」
I knock them down and kill them roughly.
So demonic energy gets absorbed.
So tried to wrap students in spider webs.
Were they trying to kidnap them?
I was worried about Amain and his group but.
"I'll save them! You protect the other students here!"
That slick Professor Daemon stepped up.
It seems certain that his magic skills are better than Obern's.
He cast so magic on himself and his movents beca faster.
He crossed over the traps by stepping on spider corpses and reached where Amain was.
That's fortunate.
Now that the botherso one is gone.
Shall I show a bit of my true ability?
'Obern, chant an impressive magic spell. Sothing about piercing and such.'
What I like about Obern is his quick wit.
When I order sothing, he doesn't question 'Huh? What should I do?'
He's quite different from my previous life.
"Paporans hastam, mortem in silento... I command in silence..."
First-years and third-years all huddle around .
Obern chanting heavily in the center, honestly looked cool even to .
However, I'm the real protagonist.
「Using Invisible Hand lv17.」
I took out a longsword and a talisman from subspace.
The Cloud Iron Sword, Sunset.
The talisman attached to it created flas.
That single sword wrapped in flas looked exactly like magic.
"Cut and pierce."
Along with Obern's words.
I danced with the blade of flas.
The desert spiders get slashed and pierced wildly.
Dozens of legs pile up. Hundreds of eyeballs burn creating noxious smoke.
「Your level has increased.」
I heard sounds of dignity increasing.
It was the mont Obern gained fa for creating the magic 'Dance of the Fire Blade.'
