Chapter 9: Survival Of The Fittest ----- “GGRRRSSHH…!” The Queen glared at me with a sinister grin, opening her massive jaws to devour Violet while he was still alive. She seemed intent on making me suffer, somehow aware that I cared for the little creature. She showed no remorse for consuming her own child, despite her evident intelligence. “You damn thing!” I quickly consumed all my remaining Everose Lily Crystals, boosting my stats slightly. I sprinted as fast as I could, leaping toward the Queen before Violet’s tiny body fell into her jaws. I aimed my spear at her eye, channeling all my remaining Mana into it. FLASH! The spear struck her eye, piercing it mercilessly. Blood splattered across my body as the colossal beast convulsed and screamed in agony. CRASH! “GRYYAAHH!” The Queen released Violet, and I caught him in my arms, retreating swiftly. She swung her gigantic scythe, attempting to crush me like an insect. Even blinded, her speed and precision remained formidable, likely due to her stats. “Violet!” “Kyyyhh…” --- [Monster Name]: [Violet] [Monster Race]: [Rare Abyssal Dweller Pill Bug] [Monster Rank]: [E+ Rank] [Title]: [Friend] [Level]: [4/10] [HP]: [2/36] -> [1/36] --- No! He’s going to die! I couldn’t bear to lose my new beloved pet. In my previous life, I always wanted pets at the orphanage, but the staff would find them and throw them out. As an adult, my cheap apartment didn’t allow pets either. Now that I finally had the freedom I’d always craved, I refused to let my first pet die like this. “Take this!” I hurriedly retrieved my last Health Potion and fed it to him. His health points began to rise, and his wounds healed slightly, but his HP dropped again almost immediately. My body froze as I realized my efforts were in vain. Why?! [{Violet}’s body is too severely damaged internally to recover fully. Stronger medicine or healing magic is required to heal his internal injuries completely.] No… My first friend in this world. I can’t let him die. No! I have one privilege left, but its name is absurd. Can it do anything?! [You’ve exchanged 30 Plot Points!] [You purchased the [Heartwarming Bear Hug (F Rank Privilege)]!] --- [Heartwarming Bear Hug (F Rank Privilege)] Sometimes, a hug is what anyone needs in these harsh times. It is said that the hug of an adorable little girl can heal even the most depressed person. Sometimes, it may even create small miracles. Depending on the user’s Charm Stat, various effects can be triggered by hugging someone you truly care for! --- “Don’t die, Violet! Don’t die! Please… Please don’t die!!” I hugged Violet tightly, tears streaming down my face without my realizing it. Thrown into this world and dungeon, forced to fight for survival, I had finally found a friend I could rely on. Even if we’d only known each other a short time, I couldn’t let this tiny bug go! Not like this! “Please!” My tears fell onto Violet’s wounds, and a sudden spark of light emerged… [Due to your heartfelt emotions, your hug has created a miracle!] “Wait, this is…?!” FLASH! The light grew brighter and brighter until it enveloped Violet’s entire body. His wounds regenerated instantly, and he radiated a stronger, vibrant aura, brimming with vitality. [Calculating your Charm Stat to conjure a healing spell on Violet…] He emerged, fully restored, right before my eyes! [SUCCESS!] “Kyuuu!” It worked…? He was okay! “Violet!” I hugged him, rubbing my face against his adorable little one. He licked me happily. I might have found bugs repulsive before, but there’s no way I could find him disgusting. He’s such a chubby little guy. “SHAAAHH!” I couldn’t celebrate his revival yet, though. The Queen still had one scythe left, and despite the spear embedded in her eye, her HP remained substantial. CRASH! We narrowly avoided her attack. Glancing back at the Queen, our eyes burned with renewed conviction. Violet and I were underdogs, weak but determined to survive. We had to kill this creature to live. “GRRRH…!” The Queen
