Epic of Bee

Chapter 249 Shiva, The Estranged Wife



"Now, I am not saying that you shouldn\'t be a bit upset, but you really aren\'t a lot better than Rai Cait," Atom said in my head.

"Really? And do you think that he was going to marry her?! I plan on marrying Helaina, and I already offered myself to Sakura, and she looked like she was going to say yes, but I told her to take her time! You would have thought that Sakura would have told me! If she had feelings for him!" I raged in my mind back to Atom, and he went quiet.

Sakura was saying nothing, and that was bothering me the most right now. I really thought she would have tried to explain herself, but she made no effort to, so I left her be.

As much as this bothered me right now, it wasn\'t what was important. I needed to focus on getting Rai Cait\'s help, but I wasn\'t about to give up on Sakura.

I would figure something else out if I had to, but at the same time, I couldn\'t force Sakura to be with me. I told her that she didn\'t have to be with me, and she was now one of my subjects.

The tunnel opened up about thirty feet ahead, so I forced all my rising insecurity down and tried to focus.

Shiva.

This woman was Rai Cait\'s estranged first wife, and she had control of Blizzard Magic. That meant that she would be trying to slow me down until she worked up enough Magic to cast a game-ending spell on me.

That would be the route if this was a game, and so far, this entire world seemed to be built like one. I wonder if that was what the FIRE actually was?

I shook my head; I was letting my mind wander again, and I was almost to the end of the tunnel. There was a female shape in the room ahead, and her head was like that of a jaguar, which made me curious about how they kissed.

"You must be quiet the creature to get past those two idiot men. While they are men, the two are still capable; you should be at least damaged. What is… Wait a minute…." Shiva said as I entered the cavern, and I knew what she was going to say.

"Yes, this is the Ninetails that was imprisoned, and this is a Wasp Queen, both are with me, and none of your concern. I am here to see your husband, not you. So, please step aside so I can go and deal with him," I said as I lowered the girls to the ground before floating forward to meet Shiva.

This woman was a Queen, but she didn\'t hold the same power that I did, but I am sure that Shive considered herself just as important. I hoped that we could solve this without violence, but with how she was looking at Sakura, that didn\'t seem very likely.

"I am here as one of his Eternal Guardians and the final one. I do not know why you have these two creatures with you, but I am not about to let you pass!" Shiva said and then started to change.

Suddenly, Hexi uncoiled from my neck and shot straight at Shiva, and wrapped herself around the changing woman\'s waist that was still thin.

"What is this?! You send you pathetic like a snake to attack…." Shiva started to say but was cut off as Hexi expanded to completely wrap and constrict Shiva.

I watched as Shiva tried to bite, claw, and resist Hexi but had no effect on Hexi\'s Hex-covered scales. Like most elemental mages, this Ravager was not built for close combat, and Shiva had underestimated Hexi.

I walked up to her and then asked Hexi to uncover the Ravager\'s mouth.

"The moment that I see a Spell Circle appear, Hexi will crush you, and then I will have my Mecha Monstrapede eat your lifeless metal corpse. I don\'t know if you can tell or just chose to ignore me, but I am not in the mood to waste time. Now, are you going to be good or be consumed?" I asked, leaning into the defiant-looking woman\'s face.

"What do you want from Ria Cait?! I hate the man, and I hope that you are here to permanently kill him! I am tired of endless wandering in this chamber, but I am not allowed to just let you get by without defeating me!" Shiva raged, and I nodded patiently.

"Yes, and now that you have been defeated, what next? Can I let you go, or are you going to start acting like a wild animal and try to fight me?" I asked, but Shiva shook her head, and I sigh, signaling for Hexi to let her go.

Hexi shrunk back down, and I lowered myself to the ground and bent down to retrieve her. Once she was in my hands, I held her up to my face and then kissed the top of her head.

"Thank you for doing that. You saved me a lot of wasted energy by doing what you did to end the fight before it began," I said with praise to Hexi, and her snake face smiled at me, which kind of looked goofy and cute at the same time.

"I could sense that she wasn\'t going to listen to her, and I could tell that she was not physically strong from her aura," Hexi hissed to me, and I nodded and kissed the top of her head again before moving her to my neck where she crawled again.

"Now, I am going to go ask for Rai Cait\'s help, and then after, I will ask for your help when I come to relieve you of your duties. I am not sure what you turn into after you are freed from your position as Eternal Guardian. Whatever it is, I am sure I could use the help of a strong female such as yourself," I said, trying to butter Shiva up, but it didn\'t look like it was necessary.
