°°°°°

The gentle road that led to Sudbury was now a network of vines, grasses, and roots that had taken hold of every bit they could get. The wind gently sways the tall grasses in the abandoned gardens while wild bushes make their claim on every acre not taken by the grass.

Most doors still stood sturdy in their frames. They were a little dirty, but if you only focused on the doors youʼd expect people to come out as if nothing had changed. There were signs of fires, in some cases, it was merely a trail of soot and smoke above a window pane, in others, it was a pile of ash where once a building stood.

Sudbury, once a bustling city with life and brimming with light at this hour was now partially reclaimed by nature. An eerie silence had taken over and was only interrupted by the cracking of wood in the wind and the occasional bird that had made its home in one of the many collapsed roofs.

The train station had collapsed and the tracks were covered in shrubs and fallen branches. Nobody was waiting for the next train anymore, no longer eagerly going to the next destination or waiting for those coming home.

Despite the decay of the buildings, there was a certain charm about the town. Everything was greener as nature grew wild and the quiet during the day was almost peaceful. But even though everything may seem like it was lost forever there was still a silver lining. While this town was no longer home to the families that lived here, it was now home to families of wild animals.

Currently, this ghost town is a place of a battle between Alexʼs sister and his former classmate Kevin who was unrecognizable at the moment.

Inside the cocoon that wrapped an area of seventy meters, people were fighting.

Gracier released a wave of flame that slammed on a web column. A fire explosion boomed out, resulting in heat waves that rippled through the air. The web column made of liquid substance melted into oblivion under the intense flames.

The small spiders on the ground, in the meantime, rushed at Gracier. Their mouth open to bite her with their poisonous jaws.

She jumped backward while sweeping a hand at the spiders. Hundreds of flame darts flew out which ruthlessly crashed onto the spiders.

A few burned but others survived as they quickly rolled to dissipate the flames.

Dozens of spiders spat out shiny liquid from their abdomens that turned into web threads. Swiftly, the threads shot like silk chains, rushing at Gracier, ready to entangle her, to suffocate her as they spread their poison into her body

Gracier chuckled before her body was wrapped by fire and her reflexes amplified. She jumped up, her knees closed to her chest, and a few threads struck the trees behind her. They instantly corroded like paper by acid; dissolving into a brown substance. Corrosive smog trailed out.

Not all threads landed on the trees. The spiders knew he might dodge so the threads were shot throughout, to not give her any space.

As she jumped high in the air, five threads closed into her. They interweaved together into a net and the air seethed with violent sounds.

In mid-air, she stretched her hands, covered with flames.

SHUA

With strong sound, streams of flames shot out, crashing into the toxic net. The threads forming the net turned ablaze; the heat so intense that they evaporated into gases.

At the same time, as she landed on the ground, Gracier blasted away the spiders with a cluster of fire.

The spiders spew more webs and blocked all her possible exits. Gracier spun her body around, amassed by flames, and the next moment, a whip of flame materialized in her hand. She was having fun.

She whipped the flame on the webs blocking her path. The webs caught fire, and the corrosive particles started burning with a sizzling and crackling sound.

The entire cocoon was filled with a repulsive smell coming from the venomous sticky mouths of the spiders.

Gracier wielded the whip of flame in her left hand while glancing at Kevin with gray pupils. The latter signaled his materialized army to attack again.

As the spider got ready to shoot more, she quickly acted. The whip of fire lashed out at them before they could spew out.

Under rippling flames, the spiders were stomping into pieces. In seconds, they faded into a mist-like substance.

Kevin became furious at Gracierʼs actions. His face paled a little and his eyes turned bloodshot.

”I was going easy on you but you donʼt know whatʼs good for you!”

ʼʼPft!” Gracier couldnʼt help but chuckle upon hearing this because it was too hilarious.

Kevin felt offended and roared ferociously. The surviving spiders crawled back onto him. Quickly, they shrouded his body from head to toe before morphing his body into that of a spider with eight legs.

It was like a savage monster has replaced a human.

The ends of spider legs were as sharp as spears; capable of tearing through anything. The venomous buds further reinforced the might of the spider legs, making it impossible to survive.

Kevinʼs body blurred and he disappeared from Gracierʼs sight.

From behind, she heard a sharp sound that was turning strong with every moment. Her eyes flickered and she ducked by stepping forward.

Just then, a bang sound reverberated as a spider leg stabbed a boulder where she was standing a moment ago. The boulder shattered and turned into powder.

As the spider leg retraced from the dust, Gracier retaliated. She pointed a finger and sparks concentrated on her fingertip. The next moment, a strand of flame struck the retracing leg. The strand of flame was compressed with violent fire energy that blasted the moment it crashed.

Instantly, the spider leg ignited into blinding heat waves.

Kacha!

A sound emitted from the leg and cracks appeared on its sharp surface. Ghastly liquid, scorched by heatwaves, splashed through the cracks, and in a few seconds, the entire leg burned to ashes.

Kevinʼs spider face turned ugly. Sweat formed on his forehead and cheeks before rolling down.

But he didnʼt stop. He summoned more strength, reinforcing his body with a transparent shield, and a new leg regenerated thanks to the super regeneration this mode granted him.

At the same time, his other leg slammed towards Gracier to stab her, while from his abdomen, Kevin spewed a sticky thread.

ʼʼI wonder how the others are doing. I must finish quickly and join them.ʼʼ Kevin was concerned about his other siblings after this ambush.
