After successfully taking spider monster quests despite Aushima's protest the group returned to their new house.
After taking a rest, all woke early in the morning.
They collected all necessities and headed to the village for the quest.
It was a 2-day journey to the village, Aushima was so scared of being attacked on the way that she insisted to take a carriage to reach the village faster but was once again ruthlessly refused by all.
"Come on, it's our first chance to camp out at night and you wanna ruin this special experience by using a carriage ?" spoke David in a firm tone.
Aushima felt her head drooping down, she knew there was nothing she can do but face her spider's fear head-on.
Elandor knew the girl was gonna delusion her mind again to motivate herself to get over her fear and think to be reborn just like a Phoenix, but he had already thought about countermeasures and just smiled to himself.
Soon the group started their journey on foot and by nightfall having completed half of their journey, they found a suitable place to camp.
This time David gathered all near the campfire and spoke in his most serious tone," I have decided the team settings, I will be on the frontline along with Eve, and Aushima will provide support with her fire magic."
"Jasmine gonna attack with arrows with her bow, while Elandor will fill in the role we lack according to the situation along with providing support magic buffs."
It was at this point that Elandor remembered an important detail that he was not able to remember earlier due to the heavy load of information transfer because of transmigration. It was like a piece of mind which was blurry suddenly became enlightened.
People in this world can use magic as long they had the required mana for spells. Weak mages use chants to use mana for spells while high-level mages can do chantless magic spells.
Mana was the energy produced by cells in our body to use various magical abilities and luckily everyone was born with mana. There was nothing much to know, other than that people could only practise specific elemental or support magic depending on their physiques, the body of Elandor from his memory was famous for supporting magic in providing buffs to various warriors and other party members in school.
David only had a weak talent for fire magic so he focused on sword and spear skills.
Eve was the same and only had weak water magic so she too practised in the way of shields, as a result, she carried a cute white shield tugged on her back while Jasmine was good in weak wind magic which allowed her to sense changes in wind and shoot arrows accurately.
Only Aushima had medium-level fire magic which allowed her to do area damage with large fireballs.
Based on all this information their roles in the party were decided.
Elandor had already thought of his plan and after a careful sneaky action took out a small packet from his trouser's pocket, containing a drug and mixed it with Aushima 's dinner.
He had secretly spent all evening yesterday shopping for this drug.
Elandor once again remembered drug details, a non-life-threatening medicine, once ingested causes mana circulation in the body to slow down for 2 days, but it takes an entire day for it to enter the bloodstream and only on the second day it can show its effect, after that, it's effect automatically wears off.
After eating dinner, they slept without any worry.
In the morning they again woke up early and under David's command used their teamwork to hunt small animals.
Everyone was satisfied with their group's synergy.
They arrived in the village by afternoon due to their fast pace and excitedness and greeted the village chief. freewebn ovel.c om
After verifying the quest documents the village chief was surprised to find that the group wanted to complete both tasks.
The group had already thought that instead of killing nearby spider monsters they gonna directly wipe out the monster's lair which will completely rid the village of the problem thereby also fulfilling the objective of the second quest as there will be no longer need to build a wall to guard against spider monsters.
…..
Elandor knew that if they gonna clear the surroundings then Aushima only needed to use weak magic not requiring much mana but in the lair she gonna have to do big spells needing much mana and at that time she's gonna flop.
The downfall of Bluish-haired beauty was almost done and Elandor was the most excited.
David briefed the village chief about their plan and the chief was happy to know that the problem can be removed from the root and hurriedly promised 100 gold coins as a further reward else the group may change their mind.
Without wasting any time David brought the group along with their weapons and equipment along with light body armours they were wearing to the monster lair.
She was just an immovable E -tier monster and can be easily killed by them after their repeated team practice in the morning and afternoon.
Everyone had a confident smile while entering the cave only Elandor knew a disaster was waiting to happen, he calculated that it was time the drug was in peak effect in Aushima's body.
They could see small spider monsters along the way, which they easily slaughtered while reaching the depths of the cave. There was not much use for Aushima as she only needed to do one or two low-level fire spells occasionally, she was brimming happily with joy, thinking she had already overcome her spider phobia.
They entered the depths and arrived near mother spider queen, soon many small to medium-sized spiders started coming out from various cracks and crevices on the cave's wall and the ground around them.
They were surrounded on all sides, it was the same as the situation they discussed during after-practice meetings.
Soon, they arranged themselves in a formation with David and Eve with their spear and shield standing in front, Jasmine stood behind while readying her bow, Elandor had already used support magic to buff each party member to max potential and took out a small slender sword in case of emergency.
The plan was simple they gonna kill as much they can and then drive all the remaining spider monsters to the queen and after weakening all of them and driving them to a corner use Aushima's and David's combined fire spells to burn them in one go. fr eewebnovel.com
The plan was flawless and soon they went into action.
After half an hour they killed at least 200 spider monsters and only 70-90 were left along with the queen.
Almost all party member was tired after a hard fight only Aushima was without sweat as according to plan she can't be allowed to waste her mana before the final attack.
After a while, they managed to drive all the remaining monsters along with the queen to a corner.
This time almost all were sweating and panting heavily, David and Eve's light armour already had small cracks after repeated spider attacks, the number of monsters was really too much to kill in one go but after hard fights, they still managed to execute their plan perfectly. Unknown to them the quest had already reached the level of E-class difficulty.
….
Aushima along with David started chanting fire spells, Eve and Jasmine started cheering thinking the quest is almost done, and only Elandor had an evil grin.
Finally, the disaster waiting to happen finally happened, no matter how much Aushima chanted she wasn't able to use her mana to execute her spells, unknown to her, the drug had already stopped her mana circulation.
...And everyone's expression turned grim and ugly!
