After Veronica left Aqua distributing fish to the entire Kingdom for free so everyone could eat it in whatever style they wanted, Veronica walked back to the workshop where she encountered Charlotte and the many tailors of the Kingdom.

​​

Charlotte was the Rank 2 Lesser Armored Spider that Veronica tamed in the dungeon she was born in. Charlotte was the last surviving egg left by the self-proclaimed Ruler of the Dungeon, the last boss that Veronica had to fight to leave such a place once and for all.

After having undergone many trials at Veronica's side, she had learned many skills and had leveled up many times, up to the point of becoming a fearful and enormous armored spider of Rank 7, with enough power to steamroll a whole city and the size and defenses equivalent to ten military tanks.

Her power was not simply in her defenses through her incredibly hard exoskeleton though, as she possessed excellent thread manipulation abilities that exceeded anyone, although not many could use threads aside from Veronica, who has been slaking on its use for some time.

She also possessed a deadly poison secretion capable of melting a creature from the inside, her legs were also immensely hard and sharp, resembling the blades of swords or the pointy tips of spears, which gave her the ability to learn both of such weapon techniques without even being capable of wielding them.

It is also rather obvious that she knows how to use Armor and Shield Techniques, and to top it all, she has a ninth eye, which gives her a unique skill that lets her unleash a powerful lethargy-inducing curse based on her vision.

And since her latest evolution, her mind had developed a lot, to the point that she had begun to learn words more and more, and also began to speak, even if by a bit.

Much like Aqua, Charlotte considered Veronica as her mommy, and was always acting like a spoiled little girl with her, her personality was rather mild and nice despite her intimidating appearance. And she could be seen as Aqua's little sister. Her mind seems to be like that of a toddler, much like Aqua as well.

She had to work in the Tailoring Guild, which was just recently created in the Igni Kingdom, as one of the lead Tailors. Her gentle personality and her mastery over the manipulation of thread had given her the recognition of many, who did not mind her being a giant, tank-sized spider.

"Charlotte-chan! How is this dress? I especially made it with the new thread using the products brought by Anna" said a young squirrel-kin girl approaching the enormous charlotte while showing her a beautiful dark-colored dress with red, rose-like decorations.

"It looks very good, Krystal-san, good job. Are you planning on adding a bit more to the set? How about stockings?" asked Charlotte.

"Ah, stockings! The fashion that Veronica-sama and Ervas-sama had bought! It might be, Charlotte-chan, good idea!" said the squirrel-kin girl named Krystal, as her emerald eyes shined brightly in excitement.

Veronica and Ervas had introduced a lot of the fashion from Earth into their Kingdom since day one, letting the tailors work into new and outstanding designs that made both girls and men charmed with the styles, which were quite varied.

Stockings, which were long socks, for some reason gained the heart of many girls, giving them warm in their cold and often nude legs, while also keeping them fashioned and cute, which many liked to be, even the rudest and masculine of warrior liked to look pretty for her husband or a future husband candidate.

Now that all the tribes were merged, the female-only tribe of squirrel-kin was finally allowed to not do mating rituals anymore and to finally find a husband that could live with them, and there were plentiful of lone men in the rabbit, raccoon, and ghoul tribe, surprisingly.

Due to this, the demand for cute and sexy clothes that could entice men was high, and the Tailor guild was constantly developing new ways of fashion for women to look pretty yet strong, and that such clothes could also assist them in battle by granting good protection, flexibility and even if enhanced with magic runes, an increase in their power.

Clothes like those were hard and complex to create, but the Tailor guild was doing their best, even more with the assistance of someone like Charlotte, capable of sewing many clothes at the same time with great ease.

"These new ingots… are very nice, gishi" said Charlotte, glancing at the new soft metallic thread produced through the ingots made by Veronica's weapons produced by Armory, such as the Emerald Wind Magic Blade, and others.

Such threads not only carried endurance but were extremely soft, almost like wool, they also held natural mana storage capabilities and could even boost the wearer's magic power and stats. Some even were able to enhance a certain attribute of magic, and others even let the user be resistant to some attribute attacks.

"Hmm, perhaps something for Ervas might be nice this time, gishi" thought Charlotte as she began to sew new clothes for the little Ervas.

"Charlotte, how you're doing?" asked Veronica as she entered the workshop, surprising the girls working inside and Charlotte herself.

"Ah, it's the princess!"

"Princess Veronica, good day!"

"My lady, it is nice to see you today!"

"I love her armor, it always looks so cool…"

"I also want one like that!"

"Mommy, how have you been? Giishi, did Aqua checked her new skill?" asked Charlotte while leaving what she was doing as she approached Veronica to embrace her with her long and sharp legs.

"She did, she swallowed the whole lake, and even discovered a way to store fish inside! Isn't she incredible? Her next goal is to swallow part of the ocean" said Veronica.

"Ah! That's just how I expected she would be… Well, there is a lot of time for that to come through, gishii… Did you see this? I am working on something for Ervas" said Charlotte.

Veronica glanced at the beautiful shirt with tribal decorations typical of squirrel-kin or rabbit-kin tribes, which Ervas seemed to like a lot.

"It looks splendid, good work, Charlotte-chan! Ervas will love it… But what about me?" asked veronica with puppy eyes.

"Gishi, gishi… I'm already working on it mommy, but it's a surprise, so don't ruin it by asking me to show it to you" said Charlotte.

"Okaay. Come with us for the rest of the day, take it easy for today. Charlotte is distributing fish outside and it's hilarious," said Veronica.

"Giishii… okay, fine. Girls, end work for today and take it easy too, gishi," said Charlotte, leaving her work in a separate room and then walking out of the Tailor Guild with her mommy.

"Ah, free day!"

"Phew, I am starving"

"Did you heard, Aqua-chan is distributing fish!"

"Let's go!"

A stream of tailor girls left the Tailor Guild building alongside Veronica and Charlotte, as they joined the fish feast around the entirety of the Igni Kingdom, the delicious smell of grilled and fried fish filled the nostrils of everyone as a small festivity unfolded which would then be named as the 'national fish day'. A day where the kingdom will eat fish for the entire day.

[Cursed Nine Eyes]

A Special Skill given only to Charlotte, there have not been any reports of a Skill User other than her in the entirety of Kritias.

Cursed Eyes are often a power belonging to monsters who have strong enough eyesight to the point that they can inflict curses by infusing their eyes with Mana.

The self-proclaimed ruler of the dungeon, or the Armored Spider Queen, possessed the less rare skill named Cursed Eight Eyes, capable of inflicting curses through its eight eyes to any target it set its sight into.

These curses are divided with each eye, giving a unique advantage and power to Spider-type monsters. Charlotte has inherited an even better version due to having nine eyes instead, giving her a new curse that causes lethargy to anything she sets her sight into.

Of course, it has its limitations based on the target's resistance stat and charlotte's magic stat, so the effects can vary a lot depending on in the target. However, it is usually a powerful tool that was even capable of stopping the storms of Gazers that appeared when Veronica and Ervas raided Oggoth's dungeon.

"That Skill reminds me of one of Earth's Light Novels about a Spider…" -Veronica.
