87 Her Fear

She needed more information and thought of a way to check it. She used her mana and throw a light orb, while watching her status menu. For a brief moment, there were a line of little red writing under the mana bar flashed.

*limitor detected. Mana usage automatically increase three fold in order to activate.

The heck??! Then, does that means she had been spending her mana three times more than she was usually used? Her face paled. There were a lot of things playing inside her mind and she refused to address some of that thoughts such as what does Kuro have to do with this world, was he the one who had send her here and why, and about what she just saw..

She could feel the sharp chill penetrate through her marrow bone, and cold sweat breaks on the surface of her skin. Her throat suddenly felt so dry, she open her mouth to say it out loud, but then close it again.

Then she steeled herself.

\"Appraisal. Appraise this world\"

And a small menu box open up in front of her.

Name : Nightmare World

Creator: Kuro

Level : ??????

Descriptions: a collections of overlapping dungeons with different strong, scary and hideous monsters that range from High, Monstrous, Disaster, Divine and Godly rank. The atmosphere, gravity and mana is denser and heavier than that in the normal world.

\"Appraise. Life form\"

~Appraisal error.

Appraisal limited to 2km radius.

Definition of life form error.~

It seems she could only appraise the surrounding to 2km radius. She mulled it over and thought about the error. The only thing she could only come up with was - there aren't any life form around her. At least not in this layer.. or dungeon or whatever this is.

\"Appraised human 2km radius\"

~Negative.~

\"Appraise monsters 2km radius\" her heart beat fast. She need to know how many threats around her, and the slight dot around the map, shown on the menu would help her to detect-

~Detected. Ten monsters ranged from high to disaster rank. 3 high rank, 6 monstrous and 1 disaster rank. Due to the effect appraisal, the disaster rank had detected your location.~

Big red triangle with yellow exclamation mark keep on popping on the screen of the menu.

Incoming threat!!

Incoming threat!!

Incoming threat!!

\"Fu%#!!!!!! I am so going to haunt that 'beloved' husband of mine!\" She cursed and stand up. Then jump out from the small cave before running like the whole hell were coming for her soul. Activating fortification on her legs & lungs , she pumps her legs to the max to run as fast as her feet could carry.

When she tried to glance over her shoulder, she screamed out loud and all her hair stood up. Never in her new life.. she screamed so loud and shrilling that would make even shame the opera's singer. she had thought she would never see that thing again.

Yet, there it was..

And she made a mistake for not looking in front of her. She didn't see the dead log that was rooted deeply on the ground, in front of her. The inertia from knocking her feet had thrown her forward, before blasting her to the nearest trees. Her body went through and broke three trees before she finally dropped.

Imagine, how fast her speed was from the legs strengthening she had used, for that kind of effect to happen.

She coughed out some blood, and felt the pain in her torso. She look down and saw some of the wood had split and stab her torso here and there.

'What an ugly sight' she thought and saw few black spots warning her that she was almost falling unconscious.

'No!!!!' Her mind scream. She don't want to be that 'thing' lunch or dinner.

She hold the wood and gave it a little bit twist and let the pain gave her a little bit boost to wake up from falling into deep slumber. She always seen this in movie and read it in some books. Though it may act like a double edge sword and might just instantly knock her off, she would rather take the gamble.

She look up and saw it.

\"What a f**king nightmare world indeed\" she spat more blood and look at the huge monster in front of her. Goose bumps break out on the surface of her skin.

How f**ked up was her husband's head to create this kind of nightmare world?

Last time she seen that thing, was when she was at earth. Though, it was comparably much smaller and definitely a little bit acceptable to look *cough* not that she ever look much of it before. She heard one of her friend said its cute, well, lets just say... they both agreed to disagree. Every cell of her being reject the monster in front of her. Goose bumps and cold sweat was enough warning to tell her that she was on high alert. The monster stop. And stare at her. She was too afraid to breath.

Her mind was processing what's in front of her. What kind of sight it posses? Thermal? Xray? Human like sight? Bird sight... it have three pair of eyes on each side. Oh but wait. It was as if that 'thing' wasn't done scaring the shit out of her new life, when suddenly, one by one eyes pop out from the heads. And each popping sound of the eyes, make her jump every time. A long veins moving like a freaking snake with big eyeball here and there. Her heart couldnt take it anymore when the head start to turn 180 degree from its former position. Her feet slid backward slightly. And the monster eyes on the left side moved and stare at her feet. Another wave of fear wash over her and stopped her muscles from moving. What's even more horrifying was, the five eyes on the right and left side grouped together and made two big googly black eyes as big as her head.

\"H-h-how the f- f**k am I going to fight this?\"

She keeps on hitting her legs but it stays rooted on the same place. She had a deep phobia with this thing. You can shoved her into snake den, a blood sucking leecher, or let her grab a fist full of earthworms and she would laughed doing so. But this, she couldn't compromise this one fear she had.

Arachnophobia.
