WHEN I GOT REINCARNATED AS A SPIDER WITH MY GODDESS

PROLOGUE

Hfff…

How much time has it been?

Can anyone look at the time and tell because there are no wall clocks here and specially its dark so maybe I cannot even pinpoint where the wall is.

Well, I don't even have the time to search for a wall.

HHAhhhhh…..

Just give up, why you are chasing after this little small life of mine. It has been more than 30 minutes that I came out from my egg shell and for some reason I have eight white crystalline legs and a 360 degree vision. I don't know where I am, or even what am I to begin with.

RUN.

Its catching up. The ground has become much dull and dismally uneven. However the lighting problem is gone. The crystalline rocks embedded in the walls and scattered in the corner of this closed dump and unexpectedly long unending cave are shining with a blue sparkly light.

I doubt I had ever run this much in my life, it's a shame if I knew I had it in me, then I would have made sure to participate in the high school marathon competition.

Ah, yes. It's rude of me not to introduce myself. My name is Sachi Kondo and sometime ago, maybe just like you I was a normal high school student, though it was not much of a life to brag about to begin with. But here's the deal, my whole class was the victim of an unfortunate road accident and then we were summoned in heaven.

This is where the crazy fantasy stuff began, where we were told to reincarnate ourselves in a new world by the Gods. After staying in heaven for a week, I became good friends with the Goddess of Knowledge – Athena.

Even if it sounds normal to you to make friends, but things are much different for me. For those who do not know of my past life, let me tell you this.

I was lost.

Not, in the sense that I got lost on the streets, well I do have navigation issues, I admit it. What I really want to say is that I was all alone till the last moment before I died. I had no parents and neither friend. No one cared about me, and my guardian uncle and aunt just saw me only as a means to an end for their own personal gains.

Lady Athena, despite all my weaknesses became friends with me unconditionally and nothing could have made me much happier.

As per Almighty World God's instruction, we were supposed to be born in a high class noble society to aid in our noble ventures to save the world. We were also, supposed to be accompanied by our god or goddess in contract.

Of course my Goddess in contract was Lady Athena. I would never accept any other god's help. Not to mention they and my other classmates tried to assassinate me and her. If you ask me why, then it's just so that they could have some fun since no one would mind if a dead person dies again.

But here I was making a long sprint to save my life just after my birth. There was no sign of my new parents or a doctor. After all that I had planned to make a surprising entrance at my delivery. To smile when only the nurse is looking at me and astonish her. To cry in my mother's folded arms while she hugs me and call her 'maamaa' and hold the gigantic fingers of my father in my puny little hand.

But I was instead greeted by a huge lizard monster, whose tonight's menu main dish included fresh eggs picked up in a cave. I doubt whether it's hygienic or not to eat eggs picked up from unidentifiable suspicious locations.

Mr. Lizard should be more careful. Then again, maybe reasoning is beyond its mental fortitude because it hadn't given up on me and is still chasing me; after I made my great escape.

I am sure I had somehow messed up during the reincarnation ceremony that I landed in such a predicament or rather a peculiar life and death situation. I hope no new-born ever finds himself in such a precarious situation.

I wonder what Lady Athena is doing; I hope she is at least not somewhere dangerous. I will make sure to find her, no matter how long it takes.

But first I need to deal with this never giving up freakish monster. Just how much stamina does it has, to run for this long at such a fast pace with a huge ugly fat body like that.

I always got bullied by the problem-kids at school, but this was just too serious. This creature knew no restraints, bullying an infant is a serious offence and is a punishable act of crime. So maybe I should search for an adult or a police officer. But, there is no way someone would be kind enough to build a police station in a dilapidated, dumpy rocky cave.

Noooo, I looked at its face again. It's scary!

With its long reddish tongue stuck out of its mouth and large amount of white slimy liquid being sprayed all over ....... ...…...EUCKKKKKK.

I know, maybe I could ask him to collect some ingredients and arrange a stove. I have got a knack for cooking, and I have full confidence in my skills.

So how do I approach him, then there is the language barrier.

But it doesn't hurt to give it a try.

"Hey, Mr. Lizard, would you like to try some tempura or curry maybe."

"ROOAAAARGhhhhh…"

"Never mind, I won't bother you anymore, I will keep on running. You may continue with your wild hunt...."
