He is eventually cornered by the Elder Brother Spider Demon, a grotesque creature with the head of a human and the body of a giant spider. The stakes are immediately raised when Zenitsu realizes he has been bitten by a poisonous spider, starting a countdown to his transformation into a mindless spider slave.
