Epic of Bee

Chapter 16 Geek Level Of Enlightenment

'If I can help you achieve your goal, then I will be given a home with the Timeduss and welcomed as one of their own. You come from the earth, the Seed World, and from here you have been given the chance to live again, by chance. Other souls are recycled, and await their turn to achieve the unknown fateful experience,' Queeny explained.

Woah, that was messed up. So you mean we are on repeat until we hit it big on the death lotto?

'Precisely, but none of that is important. You become successful, and rising to the top of this world will be critical, but this will take time. For now, I suggest giving the Royal Honey to Miku, and then you can have her sister monitor her and collect information," Queeny said.

Bleak, but I won, so fucking what? Too bad for the others, I guess.

p Miku was coming back up with the two ferret men, and they both looked excited. One was a bit taller than the other one, but they both had brown eyes.

I shall dub thee, Bigger, and Smaller! Purely for my own enjoyment, but it was the only way to tell them apart.

"This is Tag," Miku said, pushing the taller one forward, and the other right after. "And this is Sig! Both are strong, and would love to help out, right guys?"

"Yeah, I would love to do something other than Weasel watch!," Sig said with a smile after he calmed himself down.

"Same, weasels have been pretty easy going lately. So, we just have watch duty every third night, and we just did our watch last night!" Tag said with a bit more uncontrolled excitement.

It seemed the pairs had some kind of balance between them. They would have the thought talk as well, and that would help them to communicate when guarding.

It made me wonder if I might get that with the girls, sharing thoughts? Maybe then with Messia too, but that was getting ahead of myself.

"Did Miku explain what I am asking of you? I would like you to change like the girls if that is okay with you?" I asked, not thinking that they would say no, I sure wouldn't.

"Yes, my Queen!" Both men said at once.

[System] Activated!

[Hive Points Available] 2.

[Would you like to use this point] Yes/No?

Yes.

[Select a target]

Tag and Sig.

[New Subject: Tag] Acquired!

[New Subject: Sig] Acquired!

[Protector] or [Defender]

The choices were the same for both of them, so I did the only logical thing for them to do. I picked one of each, and the pair flashed, and everyone but me shielded their eyes, so I was the one that got to laugh out loud first when I saw what had happened.

Tag, the defender, and Sig the protector now hummed above the ground with their new wings and bodies. The colors had shifted and they both looked happy, and they had a bit of chiton plating on the fur of their backs, plus spears and shields.

"Woah! Tag! Bro, you have back armor? Do I have back armor?" Sig asked Tag as he turned in the air.

"Ya Bro! What does mine look like?" Tag asked back.

Oh shit, did I just warp Bill and Ted into these two...FerryBees? This is bad, I really hope they are good…

"Boys! Are you ready to protect the girls?" I asked, getting their attention.

"Oh Yes!" Sig said, flying over.

"Most definitely!" Tag said as he followed.

I refuse to give in to this, and I just waved them off with the three giggling girls. They all should be fine, and I wanted to get to see the girls home.

"Most certainly, Queeniest Queen of ours!" The two chime together and then turned to give each other high fives

I turned back to the groups as the dastardly duo flew off with the girls. I had to admit, they kind were starting to look like Bee, hehe, and with Leah there it should be fine.

"Ready to show me your home?" I asked the girls, and they both grabbed my free hands with excitement.

As they dragged me, Messia and Riza were towed along behind me.

That was actually pretty cool, and I hoped to see more bright and fun personalities pop up. Then Messia and Riza caught up, and the two of them both looked caught up in the excitement as well.

If I was going to get to the top, whatever that meant. I think these would be great people to take with me! Yeah, they were a bit lazy, but hey, look at our rock stars from the future!

We were led back over to the Sages hut, but then we headed past it to a smaller hut. It was about the size of the other small ones, so I guess they must live here alone.

Upon getting dragged inside, I looked around and loved the place instantly, and wanted to talk about moving in.

The place seemed dark at first, but that changed the second Riza let the extra heavy door fall down. Once all of the outside light was cut off, the room exploded in iridescent lights.

There were glowing things all over the room that lit the place up in bee-autiful colors! I had no idea how they got the fungus or mold, or whatever it was, but I loved the place.

"Wow, this place is really freaking cool! How did you do all this?" I asked in amazement as us three girls looked around the walls of the room, but there were more than just the glowing lines and spores.

"Yes, and now we will show you some of the things that we have collected or traded for," Xani explained, more excited than before.

"Oh yes, you mean all the weird stuff you found! I don't feel like I need to tell you this, but please don't touch anything in here unless we tell you to. We have collected some things that can't be spoken about outside of this room, and they are things that our father doesn't even know about," Miku warned us.

"You have my word, now let me see what strange toys you have here!" I said with excitement as the girls started pulling out some of the strangest things I had ever seen.

Wow, just how many Heavenly Realms are there in this world, Geek Level of Enlightenment obtained!
