I Became a Genius Swordsman in the Pretty Girl Game

[Kill!!!!]

The queen’s main body let out a furious shriek. However, hidden within her screams was fear.

The remaining three spider queens began moving simultaneously.

Ssss──

Poisonous vapor exhaled simultaneously by the four spider queens. The purple smoke writhed like a living entity, engulfing the forest thickly.

It soaked the ground, corroded the trees, and painted everything in death.

In that desperate moment, an innocent voice broke through the poisonous mist.

“Oh, right. I did say I wouldn’t hold a grudge, but…”

Boom!

Jin Yuha, enveloped in Sophia’s protective barrier, stomped the ground. Around him, a sudden surge of magical energy swept away the poisonous mist in an instant.

“There’s just one little thing that annoys me.”

Venom shot toward Jin Yuha. However, it couldn’t corrode his skin.

Blades that encased his body traced elegant arcs, slicing through the venom as if it were a tangible substance.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Relentless threads of spider silk obscured his vision. From within the webbing, sharp claws shot forth.

“If I had to be transmigrated, at least…”

Jin Yuha leaned back, dodging the claws. But in that instant, another queen’s claws flew toward his waist. The three spider queens attacked him from different directions, combining poison, webbing, and claws into a perfect assault.

The claws tore through the air.

Jin Yuha, however, had already perched atop one of those claws.

Sssk─!!!

Climbing up the claw, he severed one of the duplicate bodies’ legs.

“It would’ve been nice if I’d transmigrated into someone with more potential. Seriously, why this useless, talentless body…”

Jin Yuha leaped into the midst of the spiders.

The duplicates launched even fiercer attacks. Shadows cast by fifteen legs enveloped Jin Yuha.

The ground shook with each massive leg’s strike. Trees toppled, rocks shattered, and the forest was devastated.

But all those attacks amounted to nothing.

Jin Yuha’s movements had long surpassed human limits. He twisted his body at angles that seemed to break his spine and evaded attacks with motions that should have shattered his joints. His movements were bizarre yet mesmerizing.

“If nothing else, letting me spin a free gacha once a month would’ve made this hellish suffering worth it.”

Sssk─ Sssk─ Sssk─

A series of slicing sounds rang out. Jin Yuha’s sword cleaved through all three duplicate bodies.

Whoosh!

Then, at a previously unseen speed, silver threads sliced through the air. A perfectly timed attack aimed at Jin Yuha’s vulnerability. It was an inescapable strike from the true queen, Arinè.

Jin Yuha gazed calmly at the web shooting toward him and boldly extended his left hand. There was no trace of fear in his eyes.

The razor-sharp web met his hand.

Blood seeped from his hand as the web dug in, revealing bone beneath. Red drops of blood fell to the ground. Yet his expression betrayed no hint of pain.

Instead, Jin Yuha gripped the web even tighter, as if it didn’t matter.

Arinè hastily shifted the web’s properties to adhesive, attempting to bind his hand. But this was a grave misjudgment.

Crkkk─

Jin Yuha tightened his grip on the web encasing his hand.

Pop. Pop.

The veins on his arm bulged visibly.

“Hup!”

With a short yell, Jin Yuha yanked on the web.

As he did so—

Arinè’s body was pulled toward Jin Yuha. A force that defied all limits of strength.

Like dragging a colossal building, Jin Yuha drew Arinè within reach.

Reflected in Arinè’s eight crimson eyes was a blue sword.

[No, no! Nooo!!! You monstrous bastard!!!!]

Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab! Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab! Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab. Stab!

Arinè writhed and struggled desperately, but Jin Yuha, wielding his blade as if it were a sashimi knife, began piercing the spider queen’s body.

Countless holes riddled Arinè’s face and body. A gruesome sight.

[Gyaaaaahhhh…..]

Sssk─

Finally, Jin Yuha’s sword severed her neck.

“Oh, right. There’s one good thing about being in this body.”

Jin Yuha crouched before Arinè’s fallen head and whispered in her ear.

“My face is handsome. This is a secret, but everyone loves my face.”

And so, the spider queen, Arinè, met her end in vain.

“Ahhh…”

Lee Min-young’s lips trembled violently.

“This, this is unbelievable…! Jin Yuha, Jin Yuha-nim! He actually—actually killed the Spider Queen!!!”

Her excitement was so intense that her shrill voice nearly shattered the microphone. Her face was flushed red, and tears glistened in her eyes.

“She… she doesn’t look like she’s coming back to life, does she…?”

Her voice quivered. This gate was different from any before it.

When the Spider Queen first appeared, everyone had been calm.

Of course, the moment she exhaled poison, all living things in her vicinity withered and died.
Her webbing, even with a mere touch, sliced through steel.
Her ten massive legs exuded an aura of destructive power, as though capable of laying waste to an entire city.

Yes, the Spider Queen was already assessed as a formidable foe, an opponent worthy of the title of a “dire threat.”
Even so, watching Utopia subjugate her so effortlessly, people had retained their composure.

There was a steadfast belief that Utopia would never falter, even against such a mighty adversary.

But then—

When the Spider Queen created duplicates and multiplied herself to five, everyone’s hearts sank.
They witnessed Utopia being pushed into crisis more than once.
But this time, it felt different.

An enemy that was already a “dire threat” suddenly became five times stronger?
Even Utopia couldn’t handle that easily.

It truly felt like the end.

Even Lee Min-young, who unconditionally cheered for Utopia, couldn’t help but succumb to despair.

The defeat of Utopia.

That was a thought she couldn’t bring herself to accept.
It was a word she had never even considered before.
She had always genuinely believed that heroes who pursue justice would never lose.

But—

When Jin Yuha donned the mask over his face, everything changed.

-“Wow, how can everything shift so suddenly?”

-“I know that! It’s Hollowfication! I saw it in Bleach!”

-“Stop bringing up old anime, Auntie. Just enjoy the show, damn it!!!!”

-“This is insane. Wow… Jin Yuha is actually doing it.”

-“He’s doing it all—he’s doing everything!!!!”

-“Long live Utopia!!!! Long live Jin Yuha!!!!!!!”

-“This man does it all for free!!!!!!”

-“Wow, I’m losing my mind.”

-“I’m literally about to go crazy…”

-“Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”

-“I wet my pants…”

““Helpless Bystander: Is he losing? ???: No, he’s winning.”

“Utopia! Our Utopia has done it!!! Let’s give a big round of applause to welcome our heroes back!!!”

A drone camera zoomed in on Jin Yuha.

He was whispering something to the fallen Spider Queen’s severed head.

Soon, Lee Min-young’s expression turned puzzled.

“But… what has Jin Yuha been muttering about since earlier? I feel like I couldn’t hear his voice properly after he put on the mask…”

-“Is it because of the double gate?”

-“It must be because the demon suddenly showed its true power…”

“Well, whatever the reason! It’s not important! Let’s give a hearty round of applause to that hero!!!”

.

Sigh—

Meanwhile, Shin Se-hee let out a deep sigh. Her entire body was drenched, as though she had just taken a shower.
The mental strain from blocking Jin Yuha’s voice still lingered in her body.

Her fingertips trembled faintly.

“It seems I succeeded in preventing his voice from leaking… and also stopped it from reaching the other party members.”

What Jin Yuha had said just now could not recklessly fall into the ears of others.

Shin Se-hee checked her equipment’s operational status once more.
The flow of magic and the frequency that muffled sound were both functioning perfectly.

Only then did a sigh of relief escape her lips.
She leaned back in her chair, gazing at the empty air.

Despite achieving the result of defeating the dire Spider Queen in her first command, Shin Se-hee’s expression remained complicated.
Instead of the joy of victory, her eyes were filled with conflicted emotions.

“Now I understand…”

Shin Se-hee slowly recalled the words Jin Yuha had just muttered.
Each fragmented, incoherent phrase now carried a completely different meaning.

The words Jin Yuha had spoken in his trance-like state were disjointed and fragmented, easy to dismiss as nonsensical ramblings.
But with her brilliant mind, Shin Se-hee pieced those fragments together into a cohesive picture.

Like solving a puzzle, the many incomprehensible actions and words she had witnessed finally connected into one.

“…Not foresight, but transmigration. Yes, it was transmigration.”
