    The gentle road that led to Sudbury was now awork 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 im 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 you''d expect people toe 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 reimed by nature. An eerie silence had taken over and was only interrupted by the cracking of wood in the wind and the asional bird that had made its home in one of the many copsed roofs.


    The train station had copsed 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 thoseing 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 ce of a battle between Alex''s sister and his former ssmate 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 me that mmed 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 mes.


    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 me darts flew out which ruthlessly crashed onto the spiders.


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


    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 threadsnded 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 and the air seethed with violent sounds.


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


    SHUA


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


    At the same time, as shended on the ground, Gracier sted 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 mes, and the next moment, a whip of me materialized in her hand. She was having fun.


    She whipped the me 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 smelling from the venomous sticky mouths of the spiders.


    Gracier wielded the whip of me in her left hand while ncing at Kevin with gray pupils. Thetter signaled his materialized army to attack again.


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


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


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


    "I was going easy on you but you don''t know what''s good for you!"


    ''''Pft!" Gracier couldn''t help but chuckle upon hearing this because it was too hrious.


    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 reced 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.


    Kevin''s body blurred and he disappeared from Gracier''s 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 me struck the retracing leg. The strand of me waspressed with violent fire energy that sted 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, sshed through the cracks, and in a few seconds, the entire leg burned to ashes.


    Kevin''s spider face turned ugly. Sweat formed on his forehead and cheeks before rolling down.


    But he didn''t 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 mmed towards Gracier to stab her, while from his abdomen, Kevin spewed a sticky thread.


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