Chapter 130: The Mist Shrouding the Eye of the Forest

Chapter 130: The Mist Shrouding the Eye of the ForestUpon hearing this, Arachne was momentarily stunned, soon however she looked at me with locked eyebrows as she tilted her head, she then asked:

"Why? Even though I will not deny any orders from you, please remember that I am one of the three main scientists in the queendom alongside you and your fiancée, not to mention I am already at the last stage of resurrecting a very potent force for our nation, so don't you think sending me there would be rather unforesightful?"

I stared at Arachne without saying anything as I put the glass box in the 4th dimension, making it appear in my office, my silence prompted her to continue.

"Furthermore, the strategy for the war is already good as it is and we are able to whittle down the human forces little by little through guerilla warfare just fine... also, don't you think that giving commanding duties to a living person in an army of undeads will cause the soldiers to be displeased?"

I still did not answer Arachne, though in my mind I could not help but be disappointed in the reasons for her passive rejection, she knew that if I ordered the undeads to fight while using their hands to run, they would do so in great fervor, and yet she tried to use such unnecessary things like sense of camaraderie to dissuade me in using her brains to win the war.

"I already told them that you will be the next commander of the warfront and they don't have any objections, also the guerilla tactic is easy to figure out, I am sure that it will not be long before it's omitted, so I will have to change tactics to frontal assault early on before we suffer losses, also you have to remember that all of our equipment is made of powerful metals and my countermeasures for them to not be stolen are not omnipotent, with frontal assaults, the two sides will have to retreat before later on retrieving the scattered weapons, while in guerilla, it will be detrimental for the tactic if the soldiers stopped in the point of attack to collect the weapon of the dead. We just have to outmaneuver them during the retrieving process if we fought face to face."

Arachne seems to be reluctant to accept the order, though of course as a queen, I can ignore any kind of reluctance by virtue of my monarchy alone.

"This is an order, Arachne."

Arachne was shocked as she was not used to me using those words, she wanted to say something but sighed in the end to signal her resignation, and she then replied.

"Alright, I will leave tomorrow."

She was quite sad, though like I said I don't particularly care, so I left using the fourth dimension and sat down on my newly modified chair. I stared at the glass box with different web colors, they were excitedly and curiously looking around the new place that they suddenly appeared in, though that is normal considering some spiders are aware of themselves being different than others.

_That being the case, does she really think she can hide from me?_

That is what all I can say as I opened the 4th dimension and then grabbed a spider as big as my head, it is one of the genetic failures, the very first one as it is made out of marionette spiders, I also grabbed Ellie's Linen and covered the spider with it and then rearranged it's genetic structure to make it a normal head sized spider, after doing that, the sleeping spider suddenly woke up.

[Really Sophia? A spider?]

It was obviously [Guide] who made a total takeover on the spider, meaning I will not have a bantering partner inside my head, however, I need his expertise in the absence of Arachne, he's as intelligent as me, remember? Anyway, I replied to him.

"It's fine, it's fine, being a mascot and a comic relief doesn't have that much difference anyway."

I laughed a little, however, it seems like my unique skill is still yet to properly control his facial expression, so he cannot even voice out his annoyance, he just sighed and then said.

[Anyway, let me repeat your order, you want me to go out and create a re
