Chapter 64

〈 Episode 64 〉Queen of Bees – Clear

The Mantises, outnumbered from the start, were quickly dealt with thanks to Asha’s help.

[The Quest has been completed due to the absence of threat.]

[Clear Episode: Queen of Bees is now available.]

With all the Mantises dead, the Bees that had initially tried to capture Asha simply stopped and stared at her. Asha was puzzled as the quest ended despite the remaining time.

“Huh? There should still be time left, but it’s over. Those Mantis bastards were the root of all evil after all… Clear Episode?”

Asha’s vision shifted upon seeing the message, allowing her to overlook the entire forest. Time began to move dozens of times faster, and the forest rapidly changed through the four seasons. After about six falls of leaves, the quickly flowing time gradually returned to normal.

‘Is it showing me the future?’

The already numerous Bees now occupied every area of the forest, and the Mantises seemed to have completely disappeared. Asha was moved from her old Nest to a Hive that had grown to occupy an entire area of the forest. There, Asha was in a space that seemed to be a combination of dozens of hexagonal rooms of other Bees.

Once she could move her body again, Asha examined herself. Unlike her original small frame, she saw fully grown limbs and breasts that were, to exaggerate a bit, the size of watermelons.

“Something on my back… Wings?”

Asha’s biggest change was the growth of two pairs of Bee-like wings on her back. The wings, located on and below her shoulder blades, combined to cover her back as large as Asha’s body.

“They look pretty, I guess… I thought I’d have compound eyes like an insect since I was here all the time.”

Asha checked her status window.

“Oh, oh… I’m so strong!”

Her stats were incredible, all exceeding 150, and her skills were formidable.

Bang!

Just thinking about using Spell, a burst of flames erupted from one corner of the room.

“Wow… amazing! Seedbed Constitution seems to have changed to Queen of Bees. But level 42, what do I have to do to get to that level…”

Asha felt swarms of Bees buzzing in her senses. She shuddered, realizing what she would have been doing in the future.

“Ugh… okay, I see why the Bees increased so much.”

It seemed that the Bees she had been constantly birthing for years had conquered the forest with their numbers. It would have been fun to occupy the forest with an RTS feel without skipping, but Asha shook her head, anticipating that she would have been a supply officer producing Bees from her Womb rather than a commander of Bees.

‘Even for me, being a Semen receptacle for five years is a bit…’

A Drone approached Asha, taking out its mating organ.

“Ah, well, okay… I knew it would be like this since the Queen thing…”

Asha didn’t want to bear the burden of backing out of her first Clear Episode, so she willingly accepted the Drone into her.

“Ah♥ I, I wasn’t this sensitive! Haaang♥”

Asha’s face flushed as soon as the Drone’s mating organ entered her Yoni. It was unclear whether the Drone was penetrating well or if Asha’s body was simply sensitive, but as soon as the mating began, Asha’s body easily became excited and gushed water. The Drone, thrusting, grabbed Asha’s body and flew up.

“Hiyang! Oh, it’s so, so good after a long time… Hiit♥”

Asha screamed as she suddenly felt something thick entering her Anus. A Drone that had approached from below was now moving back and forth with its mating organ inserted into her Anus.

“D, don’t do both… Heuuut♥”

Asha continued to fly, her two holes violated by Drones larger than herself. The Drones holding Asha flew down after ejaculating into her Yoni and Anus. Semen filled her belly, streaming down from Asha’s Yoni and Anus as she landed on the ground.

“Haa… I’m not used to this yet… Euhut… Huh? You guys aren’t dying?”

Unlike the Drones that died after each mating, the Drones no longer seemed to die after mating. Rather, the Drones seemed even more energetic after ejaculating.

“I already feel my belly rumbling… It might not take long until I give birth.”

Asha flew around the Hive with her newly acquired wings. The Hive, which had become magnificent and enormous, was a sight to behold in itself, and Asha enjoyed her time wandering around the Hive, which had changed differently over the years.

As time passed and it became difficult to fly properly due to her swollen belly, Asha returned to her room.

“Does my belly get this big? I’d believe it if you told me I didn’t have a stomach.”

Asha’s belly had already grown so large that it was difficult for the organism to maintain its shape. Asha was even more surprised that she felt no discomfort other than a slight stuffiness despite her belly being so swollen. As her belly began to ache, she took a familiar stance.

“Eut… come out, come out… Haaee♥”

Asha sat down and began to give birth. She was giving birth to Eggs, not Larva, through both holes. Yellow, fist-sized Eggs came out through Asha’s Yoni and Anus and piled up.

“Heut♥ Giving birth to Eggs also feels, Haaee♥”

Asha’s face flushed as she continued to lay Eggs. Each time an Egg came out of her Yoni and Anus, she trembled with a pleasure that made her feel like her legs would give out. Asha barely managed to maintain her posture and avoid the misfortune of crushing the Eggs she was laying with her butt.

When Asha finished giving birth, the Eggs were piled up in a small mountain just below her Yoni. Soon, worker Bees flew in and carried the Eggs out of the room one by one.

[Quest Clear! Clear Episode: Queen of Bees has been fully verified.]

[Returning.]

[Physical condition will be restored upon returning to the waiting room.]

[Receiving rewards for achieving Quest 9.]

[13D 23H remaining until the start of Quest 10.]

With that, Asha returned to the waiting room. Asha breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her body, which had changed after returning, had returned to normal. Her small body was sometimes uncomfortable, but she still preferred this familiar appearance.

“Mom!”

“Lucy~”

“Have you arrived, Asha?”

“Yeah. Eh? Justitia, your body…”

Asha was shocked to see Justitia, who was floating around without limbs, as she picked up the running Lucia. She smiled faintly.

“There was a bit of an accident. I’ll be able to recover soon.”

“What happened to make you like that…”

“This is a lot grown already. Originally, I only had a torso.”

Justitia was wearing only a thin robe without a robe. Her body was still only up to her thighs, and there was nothing below that.

“It’s difficult to help you in this state. I’m sorry…”

“Ah, no! I hope you get better soon. Yeah!”

“I didn’t really want to mention it, but Asha, I have something to tell you.”

Asha became uneasy as she watched Justitia suddenly start speaking seriously.

“Um… what’s wrong? You’re not going to say you’re going to die the day after tomorrow, are you?”

“Eh? Ah, no… it’s not that. Actually, I can’t die. Asha, I’m someone who died a long time ago.”

Asha was taken aback by the fact that Justitia, who was right in front of her, was a dead person.

“What are you talking about, dead? Then who is in front of me now?”

“It’s just a form created by holding Mana with my soul for a while… When this Mana scatters, I will perish. I’m sorry for not telling you in advance.”

Asha realized that Lucy next to her was not surprised at all.

“Lucy, did you know?”

“Yeah. I was surprised that there was a dead person when I came with Mom.”

Asha realized why Lucy had been reluctant to be with Justitia at first.

“I’m the only one who didn’t know…”

“I didn’t want to mention it if you didn’t notice, as it’s like my weakness…”

Justitia looked calm but also seemed to be in pain. Asha felt sorry for her and hugged Justitia, who was floating in the air. She had been nervous for a moment when Asha approached, but she relaxed her body as she felt the warmth.

“It’s amazing… it’s so warm…”

“It’s just an illusion.”

“Th, you’re not going to take my body or anything, are you?”

She sighed at Asha’s question, which she asked while watching her.

“Asha, I’m not a malicious spirit… This body is enough for me to live in.”

“Then that’s good. I need to see how much I earned from this quest.”

“You succeeded. Congratulations.”

“Ugh… it wasn’t easy, but it’s okay because I did it.”

Asha first checked the Clear Episode that came out this time.

[Clear Episode: Queen of Bees]

[Opening Conditions: Bee Faction Contribution 80 or higher, Allied Faction Favorability 70 or higher]

[Reward: Winged Garment, Trait Enhancement]

She didn’t know exactly what the criteria for favorability or contribution were, but it was obvious that it was difficult to have high contribution or favorability when she was performing the previous quest.

‘I wasn’t even close to all the villagers… This time, if I hadn’t been kidnapped by the Bees, the Clear Episode would have been difficult. What is Winged Garment?’

The Winged Garment she received as a reward was an item that allowed her to fly with Bee wings for a certain period of time when equipped. It was an item that Asha, who had been walking until now, could welcome with open arms.

“Should I try it on? Ah, Justitia. What is a Clear Episode?”

Justitia was startled by her words.

“It would have been difficult to create friendly forces this time, how did you do it?”

“Well, as I kept mating with the Bees and giving birth, more than half of them were the children I gave birth to…”

“Eut…”

Justitia blushed as she imagined the scene.

“That’s a method I couldn’t have imagined… Anyway, the Clear Episode shows the future, but the things you’ve done are also reflected there. The place you were summoned to this time is near the central west, away from the Elf territory. If Bees thrive there, it could affect other races.”

“I see…”

Asha nodded at Justitia’s words. Asha tried on the Winged Garment. As Asha held a large pair of wings and thought about using them, the wings grew from behind her back. As Asha thought about flapping her wings, she naturally floated up.

Whoosh–

“It works well even though it’s my first time.”

“It seems useful for moving and retreating. How long is the usage time?”

“About two hours every half day… I can use it twice a day. If I move while holding Lucy, the time I can fly will be a little shorter.”

While checking the rewards, Asha also checked the achievement rewards.

[Quest 9 Achievement Reward]

4500 Tokens

Cooking Skill

Asha was delighted when a large sum of money came into her possession in an instant.

“Short and sweet. And Cooking Skill! Isn’t this worth the loss?”

“Mom, Mom! What are you going to do?”

“That’s right, what should I do with our daughter?”

Asha smiled and picked up Lucy, who was reaching out with both hands. She was able to take a real rest for the first time in three months.
