Named
Suddenly, Shiro was illuminated by a bright light that covered my eyes.
I brace myself for what happened.
However, Shiro only flashed for a moment and returned to its normal state.
"What was that?"
I took a look at Shiro's status through appraisal.
Name: Shiro
Race: Named Silk Spider Lv.5
Title: Master Knitter
Skills: Silk Thread, Sticky Thread, Knitting
Strength 120
HP 230
MP 120
The race was Named Silk Spider.
And it's much stronger than normal Silk Spiders.
Well, it's common knowledge that named monsters are stronger than normal monsters, but why did Shiro become named?
In a common pattern, a strong monster encounters an adventurer, is given a name, and evolves into a named monster before you know it.
Maybe if a strong monster gives a name to a lower-ranked monster, it can easily become Named?
No matter how much I think about it, I don't understand. After all, my knowledge belongs to humans, not monsters.
Someday, if I encounter a strong monster, I'll ask about it.
Well, if they tell me.
So, with Shiro's name decided, I returned to my usual routine of leveling up.
But I'm currently in a predicament.
My level doesn't go up at all.
I haven't been able to raise my level very well, so I've tried several times to subjugate Mithril Slime, but I haven't been able to land a single attack yet.
I have no choice but to steadily defeat the iron slimes, but as expected, I have reached my limit.
So, I decided to take Shiro to raise its level.
The plan is to have Shiro spin a spider web, restrain the mithril slime, and then defeat it.
And it worked.
If you spread spider webs everywhere where Mithril Slime appears, the next day, Mithril Slime will be hanging on the spider webs.
All I have to do is shoot an air bullet at the magic core of the mithril slime, which has stopped moving.
After defeating one, I was surprised that Shiro's level suddenly rose to 32.
And it seems that the Named Silk Spider can evolve once it reaches lv.30, so it keeps glancing at me as if it wants to evolve.
Yes, as Shiro's master, I have the right to make the decision to evolve Shiro.
That's why I decided to use appraisal to find out what Shiro can evolve into.
[Evolves from Named Silk Spider to Named Silk Tarantula or Named Red Tarantula]
Hmm...... This is troubling......
Both are stronger than the Silk Spider, but the Red Tarantula is much stronger than the Silk Tarantula.
Spider-type monsters are known to be weak to fire, but Red Tarantula is resistant to fire attributes and even uses fire attribute magic, making it the strongest spider species that has eliminated the weak points of spider monsters.
So I wanted to evolve Shiro into a Named Red Tarantula, but I couldn't help but think that if I evolved it into a Named Red Tarantula, its body color would turn red.
However, I have named it Shiro.
This is also because its body color is white.
I feel like if Shiro turns red, I'll have to change its name to Aka.
I think it would be better to listen to Shiro's feelings about this.
"Shiro, what if? What would you do if I said I would change your name to Aka?"
"Kyui! Kyui! Kyui! Kyui!"
Shiro shakes its head desperately.
"Well, what about your body turning red?"
"Kyui! Kyui! Kyui! Kyui!"
It seems quite unpleasant.
It was very happy when I decided to name it Shiro, and it seems to be quite fond of its body color.
It seems absolutely impossible to evolve this one into the Named Red Tarantula.
It's a shame because it's a rare species...
Well, I guess it can't be helped.
Shiro likes white.
It's true that white is prettier than red.
Besides, I still need Shiro to make curtains, table covers, and other supplies for the log cabin.
If it turns into a red tarantula, it might not be able to produce silky, shiny thread.
I operated Shiro's status screen and clicked on the Named Silk Tarantula.
Then, like a puppet whose strings had been cut, Shiro collapsed on the spot and fell into a deep sleep.
"That's not good... I should have evolved it in the log cabin at the base."
What's done is done.
I grabbed Shiro and decided to return to my base, the log cabin.
Of course, as a Unique Lich, I didn't forget to collect the Mithril Slime.
"Whoa! It's money!"
Ever since I became a Unique Lich, I've become more and more obsessed with money.
I'm strangely attracted to things that sparkle.
The corpses of mithril slimes, which can be turned into precious and expensive mithril, look like money with a yen mark on them to me now.
