A bright light, which looked to be coming from a flying bat, shot out of a side tunnel and nestled in the roof of the cave.
I turned to see a huge, creature clamber out of a side passage. The light from the glowing bat illuminated it. I recoiled at the sight of it.
It looked like a huge spider with a human head in place of a normal one. The human-like mouth had strange fang appendages that clicked together menacingly. The eight long legs of the monster were covered in bristly hair. Then white letters appeared in front of me, showing me some things about the creature.

"So hungy. . ." The hellspider said. Then it paused and sniffed the air. "Smell slime. Eat slime. Tummy full." I scrambled back, trying to find a route out of the cave that wouldn't get me close to the monster. There wasn't one.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck!" I said. The spider crawled closer and closer.
Then one of its legs slammed into the ground next to me. I leaped to the side, trying to avoid it, only for one of its other legs to smack into me. My body stuck to it and a hissing sound came from where my gooey body was touching the spider. Steam rose as the monster screamed.
I remembered something from my status. It had said my Class was 'corrosion', which probably meant I was acidic. Neat.
With a slurping sound, I slipped off the spider's leg, which it held close.
HP: [4,600/5,000]
"Slime hurt. . ." It said. "Slime will die!" It attacked with another leg. I only dodged a little bit and placed both of my hands on the thick black object. The spider's skin sizzled and steam rose from where I was touching it. It screeched again.
Then some more white letters appeared.

"This will work," I said to myself. I pointed both my hands toward the spider and used the skill.
A blob of glowing molten rock appeared in front of my hands and shot forward. It exploded on the spider's face with a huge impact that shook the cave. It shrieked briefly as the rock melted its body. In only seconds, it was dead.

"Neat. . ." I said. I looked at the tunnel the creature had come from. It looked to be my only way out of this awful place.
So I climbed into the tunnel and searched for a way out.

Is Anonymous a spirit?
Now that I stop to think about it, if Sashi has an acidic body that means that normal clothes would be useless for her as they would melt, unless she can not only deactivate it but also be directable so she can avoid melting whatever she is wearing. .
But considering that she would likely face enemies that she would need to have more contact with than just her hands to damage at a good rate, it would probably be better in the long run if she learned shapeshifting so that she could grow a scale-lined slime membrane in the shape of a piece of clothing to cover your genitals like a miniskirt, pelvic curtain, shorts or panties, right?
Thanks for the chapter
the dark brown pattern on her body functions as her clothes, and it can change its shape
@Smiles Purrfect.
Is the number of scales that Sashi has in her pattern limited to what she already has or can she increase it more if she wants?
She can also grow a slime membrane in the form of a pelvic curtain or miniskirt if she wants?
@Gin_Otamegane the number of scales can't change, but the size of each scale can
yes she can make a miniskirt
@Smiles So, could Sashi also grow a scale to the point where it protruded from the body like a sharp edge, blade or claw?
@Gin_Otamegane maybe. . . a good idea
@Smiles And there is also the option of her using them to grow a stinger, halbert blade or hammer, etc. at the tip of her tail, right?
Now that I stop to think about it, how long is Sashi's tail?
Does Sashi have horns?
@Gin_Otamegane Sashi has no horns and her tail is 2 feet 4 inches long
@Smiles So, it is 72.12cm long. Approximately 41.7% of her height.
Sashi's tail was custom made so it wouldn't drag on the ground, right?
@Gin_Otamegane when she's not actively controlling it, it holds itself above the ground
