I used to be a normal high school girl, but in the blink of an eye, I woke up in a place I've never seen before and—and I was reborn as a spider?! How could something that's nothing more than a tiny spider (that's me) possibly survive in literally the worst dungeon ever? Are there no rules? There should be...

I'm gonna survive—just watch me! I was your average, everyday high school girl, but now I've been reborn in a magical world...as a spider?! Wait—this isn't how these stories are supposed to go! Can I get a do-over? ...No? But how am I supposed to survive in this big, scary dungeon as one of the weakest monsters? It's every spider...

I've finally escaped the monster infested Elroe Labyrinth and now making my way towards the land of humans! But what was waiting for me on the surface was something even worse than dragons...it's MY MOTHER!! We don't have the greatest relationship for various spidery reasons but am I going to make it out of this family reunion in one piece?!...

I'll fight fire with...uh...I'll get back to you... After so many setbacks, I've finally made my way to the fiery hellscape that makes up the middle level of the labyrinth. Yay...? The monsters are a bit easier up here, it's true, but they've also got the hometown advantage! Even with all my new skills, this little spider has her work...

When someone asks if you're a guardian spirit, you say...? I've really done it this time. After I saved my old classmate who's been reborn as an overpowered vampire, the townspeople took it upon themselves to worship me like some kind of guardian spirit. Not that I'm complaining about the delicious free food, but... I'm a loner by nature! I'm...

You think you can beat me?! You and what army!? Oh...that army... I thought I was getting the hang of things! Famous last words, right? This middle stratum is filled with fiery magma (with monsters to match!), but I've been holding my own. I may be a weak, little spider, but I've got brains on my side—three of them, in...

Seriously! What genre is this?! So get this: Me, the Demon Lord, the baby bloodsucker, Mera, and the puppet posse are on our way to the demon territory when Mera falls into a hole and gets attacked by giant ants. We wipe 'em out in no time, but the commotion (and totally not me sticking my nose where it doesn't...

The head honcho. The last boss. The final encounter... At long last, it's time for the finale between me and my greatest rival, earth dragon Araba. I trained like a mad spider. I planned for every outcome. And in the end, all that's left is the execution. When this showdown's over and done with, only one of us will remain......

Let’s go pay God a visit... So I can make thread again. That’s something, I guess. Don’t get me wrong—I could be doing a whole lot worse than pumping out thread all day while cooped up in some demon’s mansion. I just wish my other powers would come back alrea—Oh, they are back. When the heck did that happen?! And...

Mother, have you heard the news that you're dead? The other mes have been hard at work around the clock, consuming more and more of Mother's soul. And today is the day! Ever since Mother tried to eat me as a wee just-hatched spider baby, it was inevitable. When the dust settles, only one of us will walk outta that...

Ain't nothing gonna keep me down! If I'm being totally honest, getting reborn as a spider wasn't exactly what I was hoping for—but I've been making it work, okay! I've been learning more about this world and slowly building up my skills bit by bit. I even managed to evolve into a slightly bigger (tiny) spider! But just when I...

You wanna piece of me?! I thought I'd seen the last of those dang monkeys, but now their evolved friends are here for payback! Getting past this howling mob is gonna take all the skills I've learned so far (and a few new ones). If I can just make it past these guys, I'll finally be able to get back...

A mysterious, dangerous monster has appeared in the Great Elroe Labyrinth...

Dear readers on Earth: If you were given 48 hours of freedom, what would you do?

SPY, MY PRETTIES! You know understanding the reason for your existence, learning the ultimate truth of the world, and attaining godhood would give most people a lot to think about. But me? I’ve got better things to do, like making mini spider clones! Look at this one—isn’t she precious?! There’s a LOT more where she came from, and I’ve sent...

ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS...FIRE!? After getting quite the one-sided beatdown from the Demon Lord, who should show up but my hero? At least, that's what the label on the can says. But who knows? Maybe he has a useful skill that can defeat a Demon Lord...I need all the help I can get to save me, Vampy, and that dandy stud!...

This Cold War Just Went Hot! This is a special spider field report coming to you straight from the human-demon border where a massive battle has erupted! The Demon Lord is finally launching an all-out assault on the fortresses guarding the human realm’s frontier and has committed hundreds of thousands of soldiers for the attack. On the other side, the...

DRINK UP, ME HEARTIES, YO HO!! I evolved into an arachne and got a face! (Two of them, actually...) For some reason, me and the Demon Lord have been getting weirdly buddy lately. Mopey Mera is no longer mopey, and even Vampy is warming up to me a little bit? What did I say during the drinking party the other...

This system is rigged... Man, whoever thought being a god would make life easy needs a serious reality check. I mean, I offed humanity's champion, then I hacked into the world’s System to literally erase the pesky Hero title once and for all, but I still can’t catch a break. Now Yamada’s inherited his brother’s title, and it looks like...

IT’S THE EEEND OF THE WOOORLD AS WE KNOW IT! Well, not actually. Or at least not yet. While me and the Demon Lord and our band of merry men tromped along the never-ending path to the Demon Realm, we found mysterious ancient ruins that house...a UFO? And because this is my life where everything that can go wrong does,...

Perfect for fans of Re:Zero and Overlord!

With the Potimas problem officially behind us (like, for real this time), I can finally focus on destroying this god-awful system! is what I'd like to say. But it looks like a certain someone won’t let that happen without a fight. I swear, every time you think you’re about to blaze through the final encounter, the devs crank out a...

THE PRICE WE PAY. Sacrifice the goddess to save humanity, or sacrifice humanity to save the goddess? What kind of sadist would throw the entire world into chaos with an impossible choice like that?! D, obviously. The head honchos of the Word of God religion are doing all they can to tip the scales in humanity's favour, so they’re backing...

Who knew being strong meant going hungry...? After making it through the fiery Middle Stratum and evolving again, things have been a cakewalk for me—and also one of the worst times of my life. I've gotten so strong that every living thing is avoiding me like the plague. Even monsters that wouldn't leave me alone for a second are running...

A mystery man and a smartphone? Things are about to get interesting! I'm continuing to level up and kick some monster booty into the next stratum! But there's more to this world than I thought, and it seems there are some big figures at play behind the scenes. Like this man, for example—he just popped up out of nowhere! And...

Deification is one hell of a nerf. So I’m a god, so what? I’m weaker than ever! I have no stats, no skills, and no physical stamina! In fact, the only thing I got out of this upgrade was...legs. But since I never have the energy to walk, the others have no choice but to haul me around like a...

I’m walkin’ on sunshine, whoooa-aaagh?! I finally made it outta the labyrinth, but was not expecting a family reunion at the exit! Guess Mother’s not too happy about my attack of the soul troopers. And now a new archenemy's popped up on the outside too?! But honestly, I beat Araba and levelled up a whole bunch, so how bad can...

Mom, I'm home! Let’s have a nice family reuni—ack!! Been lookin' for a chance to take out earth dragon Araba, but man, that dude’s crazy strong! In the meantime, I'm keeping busy with other things. I got a surprise visit from my siblings—must be getting under Mom’s skin, heh-heh. Then I'll fight round two with the bees and have a...

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE A HERO? As the chosen of the gods and defender of all humanity, everyone expects me to do great things. From the tender age of six, it's been my duty to serve humankind, and during my first trial by fire in Keren County... I failed miserably. Since then, I've devoted my every waking moment...

I-i-it's not like a spider needs friends! I did it! I'm finally an Arachne!... Aaand things already aren't going the way I thought they would. I'm inexplicably on a road trip with the Demon Lord, a reincarnated baby, and her troubled vampire guardian. I don't really interact with them much, besides subjecting my reborn classmate to insane training, watching the...
