Epic of Bee

Chapter 85 Queen Life



"Thank you all for the warm welcome back, and I am sorry for worrying you, but I can see that you have all been Bee-asy! I am excited to hear about all the things that you have been working on. Once I have more information about everything, I will let everyone know what our next move is, but for now, we are heading to go see the Trolls," I said to my gathered people, and they all nodded.

People started to mill around, and soon the hall was almost empty. All except for Leah, Riza, and Joni, and each of them came over to kneel in front of me.

I decided to let them Bee and do their thing; Leah\'s hand was covered in wax like the other Virgin Queen\'s arm.

"We will not leave your side again," Leah said with her head down.

"Come on, get up. All three of you! It wouldn\'t have mattered; there was no way to tell that there were explosives on those cloaks. We just need to move forward, and I will have to be more careful of what I scan in the future," I told the girls, and they got up, but they still looked down.

"Girls, let\'s not hang our heads. You know the Queen has a very Bee-asy day, so I need you all by her side," Messia explained to the girls, and they all seemed to straighten up at her words, and that made me feel better.

I hate to see them down for something that was more of my fault than anyone else\'s. Where were the boys? I thought they would have been out here with the girls, but I saw them both when I was led into the center chamber.

I got a tight feeling in my chest when I saw them, and I had to stop and take a deep breath in. Both boys\' faces and bodies were covered in scars that made them look far more menacing than before, but the pain they must have gone through.

"See, my dude? I told you the Queen would be back and excellent as always!" Sig said with a scarred smile and was only a bit less because of the scarring.

"What are you talking about, Shovel Face? You were the one most worried about the Queen!" Tag said with triumph.

"That was excellent of you to say about me, oh great friend, Tag! You hear that, Queeniest of Queen? I was worried the most!" Sig said in his own triumph, and now Tag looked lost, but I was already running over to hug the two of them.

It was so good to see that they were still the same people underneath all the scars despite everything. What I didn\'t understand was why they still have the scars?

"Why are you boys like this? Didn\'t Serria heal you?" I asked after I finished hugging them. But then I almost fell over as I jumped back in fright.

There was a group of people in the back with only long gray hair then thick black streaks in it. Someone caught me, but it wasn\'t one of my girls; the arms were too small.

When I looked back, there was a person in black that had caught me, and I was sure she was just over by the other before I had stumbled back. I thanked the person awkwardly as they helped me up.

"I am sorry that we scared you like that. We aren\'t used to being around other people, and we are normally very quiet," A female voice said as I turned to her.

Now that I could see her in front of me, I could see that she had a long gray tail with a black ring about ten centimeters wide. She also had much longer hair than the others, but I wasn\'t sure what she meant by normally very quiet.

That was the reason I got scared because I didn\'t hear them there or see them, but I had been distracted.

"It\'s okay, I just woke up, so I am groggy," I lied; I just wanted some excuse not to sound like an idiot in front of this real-life ninja girl.

p "Yes, we heard that you survive a run-in with Kena, the Predator Queen," The woman or girl said; it was hard to tell with the way she was all wrapped up, but what did she just say?

"Did you just say, Queen? That massive monster was a woman?!" I asked in disbelief.

"Yes, all the Predators are females, but they are from all different races. They go around and collect the strongest women secretly, and they will use any means to convince the other person to join them. The Queen has someone that does things to the girls and makes them all lust for power and battle all the time," the female explained.

I turned to find my chair and walked over to it, and Miasma was waiting there to help me sit down, taking one of my hands. I accepted it gratefully, glad that I was still able to sit in the chair even with my broken wing.

"I am sorry, but I needed to sit down; this is all a lot to take at once, and I just need a moment to process things," I said to the ground, and they all nodded to me, and the girl went back to join the others.

The predators were females who converted other females into killing machines that had no problem killing entire people. This made for a huge problem, but I wasn\'t sure if them being females made it any better or worse.

On top of that, there was someone in the background trying to pull strings.  Either that, or the System-User, or whoever that guy was, pulled all the strings and no one else knew.

I had just woken up from a coma, and I was already back way in over my head. Queen Life, the fun never ends.
