LIGHTNOVELSTORY Chapter 15: Reunion
After having gathered with the help of the great sage some information about the behavior of wasps (it is quite useful to be able to "See" only a few meters ahead, but with great detail)
I decide to make a hiding place for the egg
A hole with spider web will suffice for now
Using [Dopplengänger] I transform into a wasp
I am not really used to using this form, after all the labyrinth is too narrow to be able to fly freely
But here it is necessary
Uff
Going down I can't help but wonder if it wasn't a better idea to have transformed at the moment Shiro fell…
"The chances of survival in the case that I had gone down without collecting information about the [Finjicote Elroe] individuals is 3% with a 0.19% chance of rescuing the individual Shiro"
I guess you're right…
Flying as a normal wasp I camouflage myself with the entire colony that was here
I can't help but "Observe" the nest central…
A huge honeycomb is attached to one of the walls, I can feel how incredibly huge it is for them to create something like that…
Discarding these thoughts I head towards where according to my calculations Shiro should have fallen
But…
I only find a Metal helmet
It belongs to the man I threw
Mhhh then I must continue exploring…
After a while the other Wasps show some hostility
Why?
"Currently they consider him an unproductive member for not moving to more populated areas and hunting prey"
Ohh
Deciding to go hunting so I can continue exploring the place I prepare to go to a more distant place to hunt
Acting like a normal wasp I go through parts of the fissure… I find prey and take it like any normal wasp… straight to the nest
I am really surprised by the fact that there is a hierarchy between the bees
Currently I transformed into the weaker version…
I continue looking for signs of Shiro, going through the entire fissure
I continually return to see how the egg is doing
After a very long time acting like a wasp I decide to talk to Great Sage
-How long have we been here acting like wasps?
"Approximately a week"
So fast!
Since I don't sleep I've been absorbed in looking for signs of Shiro and hunting like a wasp occasionally visiting the egg I didn't realize that time was passing so quickly…
While I was delivering a snake to the nest the Wasp Queen sends a signal to everyone
Apparently in a place of the fissure there was something that was hunting wasps, it had built a nest in front of the wasps' nest the Queen ordered to attack the intruder
I heard that news with excitement, after all there was only one person so shameless as to build a base in front of the enemy…
Seeing some immediately go to where the Queen said I noticed that there was a red...
Ha...
Hahaha...
Hahahahahahah....
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
I KNEW SHE WAS ALIVE
I have to control myself so I don't jump straight into the net
Flying close to her I see her…
It's Shiro
I try to suppress my excitement and activate [Telepathy]
-Shiro?
The spider that was devouring a Wasp suddenly raises its head in recognition
Suddenly something happens that surprises me too much
-Slime-kun?
She answers by telepathy
Apparently raising telepathy to level 7 makes it become a two-channel path…
But when did I raise it to level 7?
"All week she was using it continuously with the egg and with the other wasps, they started to avoid him but they didn't hurt him for his contributions"
That explains some things…
But wait
She answered me?
Does she know my language?
-Great Sage Telepathy could you teach her my language?
"No, the language couldn't be taught to Shiro, meaning she already knew the language"
For a moment I froze
Before screaming out through telepathy
-Ehhhhhh Shiro did you know how to speak?
-Emmm yes I always knew…
-Oh god I want to ask you so many questions
-I guess this isn't the right time
Looking back I saw a swarm of wasps heading towards the nest
-Good point, how do I get you out of here?
-I don't know, you can't carry me because they would attack us both… but there's no hurry Slime my nest can handle this, just move to the side so they don't attack you while you think about how to help me
Recognizing that I stepped aside reflecting
Of course that was until an oppressive aura invaded the entire space
Looking down I saw a dragon
Oh god, we're screwed
The dragon looked over to where Shiro's nest was...
And roared, followed by an explosion of light
Shiro's entire nest...
Reduced to ashes
Did he kill her?
I hate feeling so... helpless
I can only watch...
If I attacked him alone, it would be certain death
I had just found her
The Dragon… Knocker just turns around and walks away
I stare for a while
Only my Wasp wings can be heard flapping in the air thanks to the support of Great Sage
"Movement has been detected in the rock beneath the old nest"
Those words shake my being
Flying around I see Shiro hiding behind a rock
She seems to be terrified
I carefully return to my Slime form and wait for her to stop being so scared
This time I will protect her
Even if it is the last thing I have to do
I will become stronger
THIS TIME NO ONE WILL HURT US

Author's words
Hi, since I see that they are giving away some power stones I decided to upload a bonus chapter today, taking advantage of the fact that I am inspired
I will try to get through this part of the story quickly, if you have read the story of "I am a spider, so what?" you will know that the story of the labyrinth is generally: becoming strong
I am not very good at that, I will try to do my best to detail those aspects, but I will try to advance it more than anything, anyway you can tell me if you think I am going too fast in the story
By the way, to lighten the mood after each chapter I will write the description of some skill so that those who have not read or seen the original story can better understand the story (I will take it from the Wiki if it exists or in case I have created it I will write it)
