Chapter 7: Oh God, Burn It, Burn It With Fork! - Chapter Summary
Ferdinand leaves the city on a quest with the same party as the previous day. As they are traveling, Gerald spots a gigantic spider, taller than the trees. Upon being alerted to the danger, most of the other adventurers run, although one faints. Ferdinand stops to pick her up before running.

In order to save him (and her) Gerald is forced to reveal himself to Ferdinand, instructing him to retrieve him (the fork) from Ferdinand's pack and throw him at the spider. Gerald uses absorb to bore a hole through the spider, killing it.

After being retrieved by Ferdinand, Gerald tells him who and what he is, before checking the status windows. Gerald gained the skill 'body of deadly poison' and the trait 'poison resistance (huge)' from killing the spider matriarch, and leveled up to 27.

Gerald convinces Ferdinand to keep quiet about the spider matriarch after they return to Fiso City.
