I Was Reincarnated as the Weakest Monster, but I’ll Use My ‘Return from Death’ Skill to Become the Strongest! Even as the Weakest Monster, I Want to Get Stronger, Take Human Form, and Build a Harem… But Why Do Only Yandere Non-Human Girls Keep Showing Up? - Chapter 2.17

I had followed the plan perfectly. All that remained was to wave the flag at the stake-wielding monster and defeat it.

“Why does it always end up like this?!”

And yet, here I was—being chased by a monster.

“Screeeeeeech!”

It was a giant spider.

Unlike the one I had parted ways with earlier, this one was enormous, wild, and completely uncontrollable.

“I’ve already used up almost all my weapons!”

This spider was ranked B—even stronger than that nue. There was no way I could win.

On top of that, I had recklessly burned through most of my weapons while clearing the monster horde.

Now, I had only half of my original arsenal left.

I used some of my remaining swords to slow the spider down while using the rest to take out any monsters in my path.

“Just a little more…!”

I sprinted at full speed toward the elven village.

In my current form as a cat, I could move more quickly and nimbly.

“I can see it!”

But the giant spider was gaining on me fast.

Just as it was about to catch up, I barely made it to the village.

“Hold your ground! Don’t lose to that beast!”

“Ooooohhh!!!”

“Show them the pride of the elves!”

The elven village was engulfed in flames, yet the warriors were still locked in fierce battle against the invading monsters.

“Riel?!”

Ren’s shocked voice rang out when he saw me return to the village.

“Take this!”

Without stopping, I charged straight toward the stake-wielding monster—leading the giant spider directly to it.

“GAAAAAAAHHHHH!”

“SCREEEEECH!”

As I had planned, the two monsters clashed.

“Screee?!”

Their battle ended in an instant.

The giant spider didn’t even have a chance to fight back.

The stake-wielding monster swiftly drove its stake straight through the spider’s skull, killing it with ease.

As expected, there was a massive difference in their power levels.

With that, one of the two threats was eliminated.

“Goodbye.”

As for the remaining one… that would be easy.

I swiftly transformed back into my human form, pulling out the flag I had hidden inside my kimono.

I held it up toward the stake-wielding monster.

“Aaaaahhh…”

The monster let out a weak, hollow cry as its body began to fade away.

It disappeared—just like that.

This was the end.

“T-The Golden Blossom Cat…?!”

One of the elves spotted me, his voice trembling in shock.

“…Oh. Oops.”

Hearing the tone of his voice, I instinctively muttered to myself.
