Chapter 78: The Wasp Queen

I spun in mid-air and slipped through my attacker's limbs, barely avoiding the oncoming attack from the wasp queen. But too many evasive manoeuvres had strained my injured wasp and its wound had expanded so much it was currently bleeding out. 

«Focus on getting out of the air first.» Sensei urged.

Get out of the air? How?

With the queen keeping up its relentless attacks, I was forced to push my wasp to move even faster, while evading the limbs that came from every direction. I zig-zagged along with a burst of speed, hoping to outrun the queen's attacks but all of a sudden, my sight was filled with the shadow of a looming claw.

Eeeek!! 

It was too fast for me to react and I was pierced by the tip of a claw, before getting dragged around and thrown into the pile of corpses. I felt an excruciating pain as my wasp's body coursed with venom that melted its insides and I knew there was no hope of my wasp rising again.
