Chapter 28: Lost (I)

The knight did run using the way we come from but it seems like we have found ourselves in a completely different part of the forest. We then see a giant stone structure in front of us.

The knight approaches the structure and it seems that the entire thing is made of stone. It is very large, larger than even a giant's home the knight says. We can't make out any writing on it and there doesn't seem to be anything inside of it either.

When we are analyzing the structure, we notice a small hole in the structure. It is too small for the knight to fit through but we might be wrong after all as there might be something inside.

Suddenly, we hear the buzzing of a wasp. The knight looks up to find one flying near us. The knight has no sword to attack this wasp, he just raises his shield and slowly approaches the wasp. It stops buzzing and just stares at us.

The wasp suddenly makes a dash at us but he knight manages to deflect its attack with his shield. Lars bashes the wasp head, killing it instantly. We both are quite surprised how easily we defeated this wasp. The previous two wasps were much stronger.

I check the dead wasp stats and I couldn't believe it.

This dead wasp stats are much lower compared to the previous wasp. The knight tells me that this is a normal wasp that he normally sees. The previous wasp size is also much larger than this one.

"I think the one we fought earlier is a special kind of wasp." The knight agrees to what I have said and also wants to avoid the previous wasp as both the wasp were much stronger than him.

"Our priorities are not fighting the monster, we are here for Aliss." The knight reminds me of the reason why we are here. After hearing those words, my thought shift and think about Aliss. I realized that Aliss might be dead and one of the corpses that are in the wasp nest might be her.

"Don't you think that Aliss is...?" I am not able to finish what I was about to say as the knight immediately cut in.

"Shrug off that thought and keep believing that she still alive, also negativity wouldn't do you good now." What the knight says is true, I must believe that my owner is still alive.
