1580 Bubu's Back!

"Bubuuu!"
A caterpillar suddenly emerged within the inside of the egg- I mean, it didn't hatched yet, it was an egg after all. but inside the semi-transparent egg, there was clearly a caterpillar larvae swimming inside.
It was nobody else than Bubu, I could recognize him any time!
However, he was way, way smaller than I remember him, only being as big as the palm of my little girl hand.
"BUBU! I missed you!" I cried, running to his side.
Bubu seemed confused, looking around everywhere, but then it quickly jumped to my side after recognizing me, even in this little girl form, he simply couldn't forget about me.
"Buuuu!"
He jumped over me and with his enormous tongue, he began licking my face. Yes, his tongue began to come out of his transparent and slimy egg.
"Bubuuuu!"
"You missed me too?! I thought you were with Rimuru! What happened to you when I died?" I asked.
"Bubu?"
Bubu seemed confused, he didn't really seemed to have any idea what happened. Perhaps to him, it felt like an instant when I died and then I summoned him back here. Maybe he was in some sort of limbo or void waiting to be summoned by me once more, which is quite depressing.
"Well, I am glad you're here, my little friend… So the effect of the Dao of Summon is bringing one Maxima Summon to my side…!"
Suddenly, a new Status Window emerged before my eyes, showing me the effects of the Dao Fragment's powers, which were similar to the ones in Genesis, but enhanced and at the same time, different.
-----
[Summoning]
A Dao with the power to Summon Maxima Summons, special entities originating from the Maxima Universe, however, it can also enhance anything related to Summoning, especially all sorts of Familiars, Spirits, or even Egos. Its primary function is granting one Maxima Summon, if the user had already summoned one before, the Maxima Summon will be summoned once more. A Maxima Summon that perish or dies in some way can be resummoned once more through spending large quantities of MP.
The Maxima Summon can also be teleported to the user wherever they are if they are a far from them. Additionally, by activating it, it can enhance the Stats of the Maxima Summon and any other Summon that has been summoned by the user in any other form or way by +50% for 10 Minutes, while also increasing their Natural HP and MP Regeneration Speed by x3.
Current Maxima Summon (1/1): [Bubu][Race: [Primordial Chaos Caterpillar Egg]

"Wow, this is really good… But the MP cost is insane unlike Elfina's buffs which barely costs anything to her… I wonder if there's a way to make her buffs affect the stuff that Silva Summons, Bubu, or even my own Chaotic Beasts… And- Eh? So you're really an egg. You can't hatch from it yet?"
"Bubu!"
The little Bubu definitely looked different than the big Caterpillar from before, he didn't looked even menacing, he was a tiny caterpillar baby that looked even a bit slimy, as if he had just hatched from his little egg. He lacked spikes at all, and his tissue seemed softer than before. He also had two small antennae, and his big eyes made him look extra adorable, but aside from that… it was really a baby inside a small, less bigger than a watermelon egg.
However, he was able to move within the egg, jumping about as if nothing. He was still developing I guess, but he was able to open a pocket within the egg to stick his tongue out, perhaps this is how he can eat as well… how interestingly mysterious.
He was definitely weaker as well, but I still checked his Status, hoping he wasn't that much of a baby as I had imagined…

"Eh? What is this?! Wasn't your Status different?! Bubu… Your Skills seem okay but… You're super weak now!"
"BUBUU?!"
Bubu was just as shocked as me, as the two of us began to weep.
"I thought you could destroy a universe!" I cried.
"Bubuuu! Bubuu…" Bubu began to weep, feeling heartbroken.
"O-Okay, sorry… Don't worry, you'll just have to level up until you evolve and become like you were before! Don't worry, we'll get through the grind together." I said, petting his eggshell.
But still, this was terrible, not only he had incredibly low stats, but all of his previous status was gone. I remember it showed his Daos and other things, but all of that might be gone. He probably grew weaker now, but was granted something new, a Soul Book, and can now Level Up, Evolve, and Learn Skills.
Maybe I can raise Bubu back to how he was before, or even better! I just have to let him get as much EXP as possible, and today as we'll go to the Ankh Desert, I'll let him feast in the EXP of many monsters. Yes, this is Bubu's training arc, which he actually never got!
"We are going to go back home, Bubu, I promise you!" I said, petting his eggshell again.
"Bubuuuuu!" Bubu seemed pumped up. The slimy liquid inside of his semi-transparent egg was bubbling a lot. It felt like he was going to stay in that pocket of slime for a little while.
