So I'm a Spider So What? Volume 5

Whatever the baby vampire decides, I might as well see it through to the end,
considering that I’ve already come this far and all.

With the threat of the Demon Lord squared away, it’s not like I had any
immediate plans anyway.

Oh, but I would like to lay some eggs somewhere.
Gotta keep those backups around in case I need to use egg revival.
Come to think of it, what should I do about the Parallel Minds and all the
other babies I left in the Great Elroe Labyrinth?
Guess I’ll just leave them to it.

I’m sure they’re getting by just fine on their own.
I would live to regret making that choice.
I sorely underestimated just how estranged from me my Parallel Minds had
become.
And in the future, I would end up paying for it dearly.

“All right, you guys, let’s start our preparations. We’ve got lots of work to do if
we want to wipe out all of human- and demonkind!”

““““““““Yeah!””””””””

AFTERWORD

Hello there. I’m Okina Baba.
We’ve finally reached Volume 5 of this series.
Five seems like a pretty good place to leave off, don’t you think?
Is it just me, or does it feel like a sort of special, exciting number?
Oh, it’s just me? All right, then.
Old man: “Ahem.”
What is it, Mr. Ronandt?
I feel like you’re going to confuse people, showing up in the afterword like
this.
Old man: “In the web version, I seem to recall that I played a large role in both
the spider and S sides of the story right around now. And yet it seems that I am
not in this volume at all, no?”
Nope, you sure aren’t. Not a single trace. Your name’s not even mentioned
once.
Old man: “Why, then?!”
I couldn’t help it.
Your part got sacrificed to a terrible phenomenon in the world of adults
known only as a “page-count limit”!
Old man: “O-of all the—”
But fear not, friend!
For you are going to play a seriously major role in Volume 6! If all goes
according to plan, at least.

So please look forward to the exciting antics of Elder Ronandt, who you could
even call the real hero of this series if you really wanted to, in the next volume!

Old man: “It sounds to me like you’re making things up.”

It’ll be fine! Probably.

As of now, I really do plan to write Mr. Ronandt’s role in a very different way
from how it played out in the web version.

In fact, the entirety of Volume 6 is going to differ quite drastically from the
original web version of the story.

Perhaps the fate I’ve managed to avoid in Volumes 4 and 5 will finally catch
up to me, and I’ll write a volume that’s 100 percent new content?

How very frightening.

Incidentally, while the advertisement for Volume 4 said that it contained sixty
thousand characters of new text, that was actually just the count as of the
writing of that ad copy. By the time I finished, it was apparently even more than
that.

And Volume 5 has gone just about the same way.

Ha-ha-ha. I’m such a hard worker.

Now on to the thank-yous.

As always, I want to thank Kiryuu-sensei for drawing such charming and
beautiful illustrations.

And also as always, I want to thank Asahiro Kakashi for drawing such
charming and hilarious poses.

Let me also thank my editor K and everyone else who was involved in bringing
this book into the world.

And all of you who have picked up this book.

Thank you very much.
