## Chapter 80 – Crossed Questions
In a cool, dark corner formed by massive tree roots,
A black-haired woman was visible, squatting with her face buried in her knees.
On the opposite mattress, a beast-kin woman was playing with children, watching her with evident anxiety twitching her rabbit ears, clearly displaying her hesitation.
Finally, with a soft groan, the beast-kin woman rose and slowly approached her, cautiously speaking and gently embracing her shoulders.
“You… held it in well…
If you had tried to run away like that…”
“I want to be alone…”
Though it was an unavoidable choice, she couldn’t take a step forward in an opportunity that might never come again.
Even with something she wanted to protect, she couldn’t move and remained in place.
And, indulging in relief, she let her legs give way, barely holding them together with her arms.
“Yes… then…”
As Pina, who had been glancing at her, turned away with a small sigh, Yui buried her face deeper into her knees, listening to the receding footsteps.
Within her mind, a nightmare-like memory, like a tangled ball of yarn, played out.
Last night, Pina had grabbed her wrist when they went outside together.
Looking down at it, what she wanted most was her friend’s safety.
Ultimately, Yui shook off Pina’s hand, and before Pina could react, she dashed down into the open entrance of the den. She stood before the wall where it was likely to be, facing the tentacles with composure.
At her attitude, the door began to open slowly without a word. Yui stepped through, feeling the thick, intense scent of flesh and the sticky moans that sounded like screams piercing her ears.
Emotions she had avoided at all costs until now.
She wanted to confirm her friend’s safety, but she didn’t have the courage to return to this place, so she just wanted to escape this den, that overwhelming desire.
But knowing that wasn’t all, she followed the only way she could confirm it, wandering through the prison area of the den.
“Carla… Carla…”
Following her experience, thinking that Carla’s appearance might have changed, she looked into the faces and bodies of the beast-kin females, their eyes rolled back in pleasure, sometimes even pushing away those who were being violated like dogs, struggling to turn them over.
“Carla… Eek…!!”
Increasingly, she bit her lip, enduring the fear and the feelings that were being shattered by the horrors before her eyes, tears welling up frequently, which she had to wipe away with the back of her hand.
When Yui finally realized that she had checked everyone and there was no one left to find, her legs, which had been full of tension, gave way, and she could no longer move from that spot.
“Hng… Hicc… Euhuhu…… Euheheuk……”
Thus, in the center of the orgy of female bodies and tentacles, in the midst of the lewd and erotic feast, the tears that flowed from Yui’s eyes contained something.
Was it relief at not finding her friend here?
Or was it just that she couldn’t escape this place and sought other solace, only to realize the reality more deeply, leaving her heart feeling empty?
A large shadow fell over her head. Yui, with vacant eyes, looked up at it, her pupils fixed on it without wavering.
Memories of the time when she could be brave because she had a friend,
And the terrifying nightmare of this moment, now that she had no friend.
Seeing Arachnella reddening her crimson eyes and looking down at her with a displeased expression, Yui slowly rose to her feet.
“Why do you have to come into a place like this, so bothersome… Uh… Uh oh……?”
“Kill me… I want to stop now…”
Arachnella stared down at Yui, who was looking up at her with unfocused eyes, and made a sulky face, as if thinking about something.
Then, she snorted and gracefully approached the few remaining guards tied to the tree root wall in the corner with her four pairs of legs. She slashed one of their necks with her sharp claws, drawing blood, and then turned her head and said a word.
“They’re going to die in that state anyway.
Do I really have to bother doing it for you?
There’s nothing more tasteless than prey that has lost its will.”
The guard, who had been struggling at her feet due to the fear of death, eventually began to move much slower, probably due to a lack of blood.
Finally, Arachnella picked up the guard, who had stopped moving, and glanced mockingly at Yui before returning to her spider web hideout, leaving Yui staring blankly after her.
Of course, Enic had told her not to touch his females, but Yui had no way of knowing that.
In the end, unable to say anything, she slumped back down, surrounded by the endless moans and groans of the females, and the filthy sounds of ruptures and friction.
In the midst of it all, Yui suddenly felt a twitch in her lower abdomen. With surprised eyes, she slowly brought her hand down to her groin.
A slippery sensation, and a clear, silvery thread flowing from her hand, like it was made of silver.
Looking down at it, her face contorted, her eyes filled with bewilderment and denial of reality.
‘Hngik…!! We’re offering our bodies…
…to this person together…
G… Gguhreot…!! Haaang…!!’
Yui, who had been frantically searching for Carla and hadn’t noticed the subtle sensations that had begun to invade her body, struggled in confusion. She clutched her head as memories unconsciously surfaced, like hallucinations.
“No… I don’t want to… Unnie…… Kotonoha Unnie……”
Frantically getting up and retracing her steps before being swallowed by these feelings, she threw herself out of the still-open door and tumbled helplessly to the ground.
Her soft skin squished as it hit the ground, and her skin scraped against the rough tree roots. She desperately gasped for breath, rolling pathetically on the ground.
“Heuheuk… Heuk… Euhuhe…… Heuheuk…….”
Wrapping her arms around her shoulders and curling up on the ground, Yui shook her head desperately, trying to forget everything she had seen inside, continuing her endless torment.
“Carla…… What… what should I do……”
And the silvery, viscous droplets flowing from her tightly closed vulva slowly trickled down her plump buttocks, as if representing her feelings.

‘Next week…… That’s sooner than I thought……’
Finding her room number prominently displayed in the dormitory mailbox divided by partitions, Carla held a small letter in her hand as she looked inside.
The letter contained news that the date for the social gathering Lucas had mentioned had been set, and all she had to do was come.
As the contents of the letter were reflected in Carla’s dark brown eyes, she turned and began to walk back to her room.
‘Yui still hasn’t contacted me…’
Lately, Carla had been preoccupied with worrying about Yui, who had been in the same room as her and had disappeared like smoke.
She had disappeared without a word, so something must have happened, but she didn’t know if it was good or bad.
The longer she was away, and the more she looked at her empty bed before falling asleep, the deeper her loneliness grew.
She still went to the academy and did her personal research, where she met friends from the same department, but the absence of her closest friend had a significant impact on her.
‘When are you coming back……?
I hope nothing bad has happened……?’
Eventually, she returned to the dormitory again today. As soon as she returned, she sat at her desk to organize the results of today’s research, then leaned back in her chair and let out a small sigh.
In the midst of it, Carla kicked the desk drawer with her knee and heard a rattling sound. Thinking about the source of the sound, her eyes widened and she hurriedly opened the drawer in surprise.
“Spider-kun…!! I’m sorry……!!
I completely forgot……!!”
Carla, who hadn’t even thought about this existence for the past week or so since Yui disappeared, looked at the being in the drawer with a bewildered expression and picked it up to examine it.
“What should I do…… Look how dried up you are……
I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I forgot about you……”
Certainly, it looked much smaller than before, whether it was because it hadn’t eaten or not.
In fact, it had been replaced with another tiny spider, but Carla, unaware of this, was genuinely surprised.
In any case, Carla, flustered, covered her mouth as a soft groan escaped, and hurriedly carried it, limp in her hand, to the bed.
“I’m sorry…!! Please wake up…!!
Don’t leave me too……
Please… I’m begging you……”
Carla examined its reaction on the soft bed. She shook it and tapped it, but seeing that it didn’t move anymore, she became tearful and restless.
It might already be dead.
Humans would die if they didn’t eat anything for a week, so why would it be any different for a small creature?
“What should I do… What should I do……!!
Let’s… Let’s eat… and get some energy.. Okay…?
Jus… Just wait a minute…!! I’ll… I’ll give you food…!!”
First, Carla recklessly threw off her long, flowing school uniform, leaving her in her underwear. But when she thought about it, she realized that she had never done anything herself.
Spider-kun would stimulate her, and she would experience a flood of pleasure, unconsciously releasing her juices, but she didn’t really know her own body properly.
“Yui… What should I do……”
But even if she swallowed her embarrassment and asked, Yui, who could have told her something, was no longer here.
Moreover, her anxious heart and bewildered emotions were further distracting her.
Carla just stomped her feet, wondering for a long time what she should do.
Finally, biting her lip hard, Carla carefully lifted Spider-kun from the bed and, steeling herself, slowly lay down on the bed.
“Let’s… Let’s eat……?”
