There was a long-standing saying in Nexaria, 'The dungeon provides all that one requires to conquer it.'
That saying had never left Adrian's mind since he became a hero. This time, it was the same situation.
The spider's exoskeleton could withstand even the sharpest blades, making things difficult for them. But thankfully, there was a solution before his eyes, a way to weaken the creature's armour and level the playing field.
'If I can lure them into the pond, their exoskeleton might melt away like the stone,' Adrian thought, tightening his grip on his sword. 'Handling them without their armour would be a piece of cake.'
Adrenaline filled Adrian's body as he made his choice.
"Everyone back up," he murmured. "Help Sophia get rid of the webs."
"What are you up to?" Amelia shot back, but deep inside, she knew what he was about to do.
"Buy you some time," Adrian smiled back before rushing towards the Queen.
