Chapter 38 Learning more about the Queen

"Yellow Striped Spider Queen?" Rex was confused.

The spider simply appeared beside Rex. Rex did not even blink.

The Spider Queen seemed to be checking Rex out. Even though the girls had always checked him out. He felt a sense of familiarity with the Spider Queen checking him.

"You seem to be telling the truth. Will you perhaps tell this Queen which Mortal Realm I am currently on please?"

Rex wanted to see her before he asked a serious question.

"Your Majesty, may I look at your body as well?"

The Spider Queen jumped back. She did not fear Rex but she could not tell if he was interested in her physically, in a loving way, or in a soul way. She kept her distance to see how he would react.

"I am sorry if I offended you. You checked me out and I have never seen or heard of a Yellow Striped Spider Queen. I was just wanting to see the difference between you and a normal Yellow Striped Wooded Spider." Rex quickly bowed his head.

The female spider also bowed her head. In front of a queen and being on someone who was already bowing their head. This made the female spider bow her head too.

"Would you like to know the differences between the Yellow Striped Spiders?" The Spider Queen asked.

Rex looked up. He never heard of different Yellow Striped Spiders. So he instantly nodded in agreement.

"Good!"

The Spider Queen seemed to like Rex more. Even though she did, Rex still had a reason to be weary of her.

"There are currently five different types of Yellow Striped Spiders. Each of them lives in different areas. The first one is what you call the Yellow Striped Wooded Spider. The males make trees in their homes."

Rex nodded in agreement.

"The second one is a Cave Living one like her."

Rex looked up and saw the spider on his head looking at him.

"They are almost identical to the Wooded Spiders except for one major thing. The male goes to the female. If the female likes the male, they become forever mates. If she does not, once the deed is done. She eats him and their children become the head of the family."

Rex wished he had a paper and pen to write this down. He never heard of this news before and wanted to keep it.

The Spider Queen saw Rex anxious and asked, "Young man, what is wrong?"

Rex swallowed nervously and replied, "I wish I had a paper and pen to keep this information down. It would help greatly in keeping lives from being lost recklessly."

The Spider Queen looked deeply into Rex's eyes. She could tell that the boy was telling the truth.

"My eyes have seen you are telling the truth. If you get my youngling to the feast. I shall grant you a web that will forever keep all the different types of Yellow Striped Spiders."

Rex nodded.

The female spider crawled to Rex's palm. He did not try hard to throw her but he avoided the Spider Queen and forced his way to the side of the wall. It took nearly twenty minutes to reach the other side. Rex felt that it should have taken him longer but seeing the time on his menu. He knew something had happened.

Rex drove his first blessed sword blade into the wall and jumped on it. Doing the same thing to the second got the female spider almost a quarter of the way up.

The female spider shot her thread high into the wall. She accepted a small toss from Rex. Rex pretty much just dropped his hand while the female spider jumped.

Knowing her web did not stick, she instantly released it and shot it again. This time it reached the crown and she was instantly inside.

Rex climbed down and recalled his swords.

"You truly are a wonderful boy. Now the feast has begun!" The Spider Queen was thrilled.

Rex did not know what was going on but he truly did not know what was going on.

"Ding!"

Rex looked at his menu.

'Emergency Quest Completed.'

'Click to view the rewards or wait?'

Rex just chose to wait for now. Even if he wanted to, he did not want to disturb the Spider Queen from becoming his friend.

"You are currently in the First Mortal Realm. Deep within this cave is a Wyvern that I am trying to return its egg to."

The demon started to laugh. This made the Spider Queen unhappy.

"Human, let us fight! I too want to deliver the egg. It seems some other humans do not like the right to head it over to me." The demon started to sound angry.

The Spider Queen was very unhappy. Her daughter was trying to feast and this demon wanted to fight under her. Even the Spider Queen felt a tinge hit her heart.

"Boy, I want this Demon Dead! I can help you if you want the help."

Rex heard another Ding.

This time he opened the menu to see what the reward was for getting in the Spider Queen's good side.

'Emergency Quest completed

Keep the Queen Yellow Striped Spider happy

Rewards: Spider Queen's undying Soul.'

'Click in the reward box to learn more'

Rex clicked on it.

"An undying soul will always help one recover the energy in a Soul Attack or from receiving a Soul Attack. Additionally, being from the Heavenly Realm. Her Soul will increase yours as you increase in the Realms."

Rex felt immense gratitude for this demon. He did not want to fight him here though.

"Yes demon we will fight. However we will not fight here with the cute Spider Queen. I would rather not hurt her or her daughter who is eating."

Rex felt proud of his speech. Even though the demon and the Spider Queen both felt it off for some reason.

"Fine we shall proceed down."

The demon left.

Looking at the boy in front of her, the Spider Queen felt even more compassionate to help the boy. She was already going to let him have her undying soul. It would drastically help him as he climbed the Mortal and Heavenly Realms.

She decided to do more than that. She decided if he were to win. A greater reward than her undying soul would be his.

Unknowingly, giving him that reward changes the entire way the Mortal Realms would view Rex. When he entered the Heavenly Realm, Rex would face one of the greatest disasters in the Heavenly Realm.
