《Supreme Skeleton》Dungeon(4)

Feeling the familiar tingling inside him, as if something was wishing to rush out, Cale realized that the contents of the screen were not a lie. He really had obtained another divine power!
'How is this even possible?' Cale couldn't comprehend the current situation at all. Whether it was now or twenty years ago, he had never heard of anyone wielding two divine powers at the same time. After all, divine powers deeply resembled a person's soul, and it was simply impossible to have more than one.
However, Cale could clearly feel two entirely different powers rushing through his bones, causing a series of questions to arise in his mind.
Did that mean he had two souls? Can he absorb even more divine power? Is this happening because of his new body?
"Don't come near me!!!"
With a distant roar, Cale stepped out of his daze and eyed the perpetual darkness with slight confusion.
"I said don't come near me! Just eat my brother and leave me alone!"
Cale heard a woman's scream again as he finally responded. No longer doubting himself, he surged Qi into his bones as they suddenly turned firm.
Rip! Rip! Rip!
Cale tore through all the cobwebs in his line of sight until finally, the glow of Qi Stones filled his vision again. As he slowly rose from the ground, Cale was presented with a gruesome sight. The woman with golden hair could be seen trying to abscond from the cobwebs while the spider slowly moved towards her, seemingly enjoying the current situation.
"You! Help me!" Eva called out with desperate eyes as she noticed a person rising from the ground.
'That bitch,' Cale cursed inwardly, realizing that quietly running away was no longer an option.
"Screech?" For the first time since the fight began, the shriek that escaped the spider's mouth seemed rather confused. In all the time it had existed so far, it had never seen anyone able to stay alive after getting engulfed by the nets. Normally, all enemies would simply suffocate, but this little creature did not.

'I must attack first!' Cale inwardly cried out before drawing all the strength from his body and tensing the area with his extreme Qi. Both of his hands were enveloped by a bronze color, while a faint crimson color rose from his armor.
-
[Wrath - divine power that increases the Qi of the user by a certain degree]
-
After a few more seconds of doubt, the spider once again shot webs at the figure. With new power coursing through his body, Cale disappeared from the spot, causing the web to hit the ground unhindered.
'This spider's Qi and divine power is powerful, but he has a huge disadvantage that could make him lose even to weaker opponents. He's just too huge' Cale thought before appearing under the spider.
Taking the opportunity to his advantage, Cale swung his sword towards the spider's six legs. Since he was already at the Peak-Disciple Rank and his strength was enhanced by two divine powers, he smoothly cut off all of its stalks.
Boom!
After losing its only support, the spider fell onto the ground with a loud bang. Cale didn't miss such a chance as he proceeded to strike the beast from all sides, covering it with deep cuts.
"Screech!!!"
A loud shriek echoed through the area as Cale stopped. For some reason, after hearing the cry, an uneasy feeling appeared in his heart.
'This person...what kind of monster is he? Didn't he just lose miserably a few seconds ago?' Eva, who had seen the entire attack, was deeply impressed as her eyes gleamed with hope, "Hey! If you help me get out of here, I'll give you all my savings! Just help me!"
"Answer me!" Eva added after seeing Cale glance at her with disdain before proceeding to attack the struggling spider. Unfortunately, most of his attack didn't manage to penetrate too deeply into the spider's skin, even after using all the attainable power.

"Don't pretend you can't hear me!" Eva was getting more irritated, but suddenly her expression turned fearful.
"?!" Cale was astounded to feel vibrations transpiring within the ground. Startled, he looked up and saw many medium-sized spiders rushing towards him.
'Ahh...I was too careless, I completely forgot that this spider wasn't the only enemy...' Cale sighed with helplessness. Although he wanted to at least take some materials from here, it was still too early for him to fight so many beasts alone.
"Please...take me with you...I will do anything you want! I can even become your slave!" Eva became even more desperate when she saw the approaching group of spiders.
"It would be a shame for me to have such a useless slave," Cale replied coldly as his eyes flickered with killing intent, "How can you even have the audacity to demand something from a person who killed your brother?"
"What do you even know about me!" Eva shouted before her mouth shut by itself, "Please...take me together..." she added softly.
"I hope you have a painful death," Cale said coldly before launching into the incoming batch. He could still hear the golden-haired woman's screams from a distance, but it didn't bother him anymore.
Cale deftly jumped into the crowd of beasts that were preparing to greet him with their jaws agape. They had no idea that Cale had already anticipated such an outcome.
Thurst! Shove!
Cale deftly began to kill every beast that came near him, but after a few moments, Cale noticed that the number of spiders only seemed to increase.
'There's no other way,' Cale sighed before leaping into the air. Numerous beasts, staring into the air with bloodthirsty eyes, suddenly felt feet landing on their abdomen.
'I can't fall!'
That was the sole thought in Cale's mind after stepping on another spider. Only one unsuccessful slip would result in his instant death. Even though he was even stronger than before, he still couldn't fight so many beasts at once.
Fortunately, after a few moments, Cale was already at the end of the archway when he successfully landed on the precious ground.
"Screech!!!"
The dungeon's ruler screeched as it saw Cale successfully survive the ordeal, but since he was severely beaten and injured, it was impossible to force that puny human back into the nest.
While some of the spiders followed Cale from behind, the golden-haired woman was still lying on the ground with moist eyes.
"Wh-why...please...no"
