3035 Honey II
Half an hour passed, and I had got most of what I wanted; ten more minutes and I would take all the honey I needed.
I looked at the transparent bottle, which was filled with honey; it may seem small, but the storage inside was larger than it looked.
The same with strings; they are thinner than the hair, but the space inside them is spatially enlarged so that they can transfer far more honey than it looks.
Everything is going according to plan; it couldn’t make me happy and also pity the guards; the queen is going to be very mad when it discovers what has happened.
It would increase the guards at honeycomb when it is resting, and currently, there are quite a lot of guard bees, but not a single one of them was able to discover what is happening.
Hun!
Eight more minutes passed, and the smile on my face became even bigger when suddenly my smile froze.
The queen bee had opened all its eyes and had a fury in them, the same one that Salamander had when it had started a massacre in search of the thief of its precious peaches.
“Fuck!”
I couldn’t help but curse loudly and immediately started on plans which I had prepared in case this happened.
Eeeeeee!
The queen let out a loud, sharp sound; it immediately woke up all the bees; from worker to guard bees, all of them turned alert in an instant, and their eyes turned red, while their soul sense exploded as they began a frenzied search for the bees.
While I stopped taking honey and narrowed the soul sense just enough to get a look at things at honeycomb and not look at them clearly.
I did not move the strings; it was too dangerous.
My strings are not easily discoverable; I should worry more about myself, seeing within a few seconds, three bees went over my hiding spot.
If I get discovered, thousands of bees will come at me, and it will be game over me for me, considering each and every bee is above Grand Lord’s class. I may survive a few, but not hundreds, forget thousands.
I was doing everything I could and could do nothing further, so I stopped worrying and closed my eyes, and went to my core while Ashlyn keep eyes on my surrounding.
Hours passed, but the bees kept searching for the thief in a frenzy; they were far more angry than I had thought.
They had spread far and wide in search of the thief, invading and killing lots of monsters. I couldn’t help but feel little guilty about it as they were innocent but fell prey to the fury of the fees.
Even some bees had died when they attacked a monster that was far more powerful than them.
It took more than a day for their frenzy to slow but not stop. It took another day for their frenzy to stop, but it all acted to draw out the thief. The monsters may be dumb, but they are smarter in some way.
It was three and half days when everything turned calm, and the queen had truly slept; this time, it was not acting.
So, I finally acted and began to pull out my strings slowly; I had very much wanted to take more honey, but I controlled my greed.
I have taken more than enough, and it is time I should take back my strings and leave this place.

It took me eight minutes to pull back my strings, and as I did it.
I waited, and within a few minutes, I got the go-ahead; immediately, I waved my hand, storing the stealth formation in my storage, before getting up and moving through the way Nero had scouted.
Ashlyn also flew out of my shoulder and began to help me move through the maze of bees.
While the bees have stopped their frenzies’ search, they are still vigilant and spread wide due to the monsters they have killed. Now, they are occupying their territory, killing any monster that got too close.
I do not want to get caught by them; even now, when they find the monster in their territory, they call the whole ground and descend on it.
Even if they are weaker, they make up with their large numbers and poisonous sting, which incapacitate any monster within a second to minutes, depending on their power.
Most monsters do not want to mess with these bees and stayed away.
Little more than half an hour passed when finally a smile couldn’t help but appear on my face.
I have got out, there is a large number of bees, but I have got out with the help of Ashlyn and Nero.
I did not stop; I kept moving; I was not safe. Nothing here was safe unless I found something like a monastery, which is unbreakable by any monster here; then, I am not truly safe.
If I survive the big Grimm, I will definitely return here; this place is a treasure trove; everywhere are resources, and this is the safest part of the ruin.
There are some areas that Ashlyn and Nero had found which is filled with powerful monsters. Every monster there is a step away from the Primary-II stage, and some are even at it.
Ashlyn and Nero saw them; they were terrifying.
Now that I have acquired the honey, I could go to the place where I will make a breakthrough, but before that, I have to pick one thing from a place.
I will not help me in any way, at least before I defeat the big Grimm, but I would like to collect it if it is ready. It is amazing, and I like to see if all that energy was enough to heal its damage.
It is the most amazing thing I have found in the Rhaek’s storage, and with the information, I have found in the library, I was able to find a way to fix it.
It was not difficult when one thinks about it; I just needed to feed it a shit load of energy.
Far more than what Rhaek, me, and all the Grimms storage had combined.
Thankfully, with the help of Nero, I had found a source of great energy; it is immense, and I am kind of excited to see it.
As it will help me take the academy, where I need to take it.
Chew Chew
Three more hours passed when Ashlyn suddenly chirped, and fear appeared on my face immediately; I looked around and saw the boulder.
Stealth!
I immediately behind me, and formation came out; I did not even wave my hand, and formation activated without me doing anything.
I had designed it in such a way for a thing like this.
A very powerful monster came toward me quickly, something I could not evade. I have to hide.
It has happened several times in the past few months; sometimes, you can not avoid them.
Till now, this way has not failed, and it will not fail this time too. It better not fail, or forget; even Ashlyn and Nero would struggle to kill it.
So, it is wise is say my life depends on it for it not to discover me.
