Epic of Bee - Chapter 184
“Sorry, I had Will doing some Cleaning while you were resting. I don’t mean to step over you, but you and I know that the punishment that you gave was hardly adequate for the infringement,” Beezli said with a smile, and I turned back to Will.
“Yes, my Queen! I will not ever go against your will again; I can promise you that. I have had a chance to think about what I did and how I could have dealt with it better. I also understand your reason for denying my request,” Will said, putting his fist over his heart and then bowing to me deeply.
Beezli was not wrong, and I was almost happy that she had done it, but I wasn’t sure that this was what you would call appropriate attire for the situation.
“Once we have finished with Lexia, then we will go take care of the Geo-Sect. That means that what you do will judge how long it will take to get there to help them, understood?” I asked, and Will nodded to me and then disappeared.
Now it was time to move on to the next topic, Pendra. This was something that I planned on taking care of myself because it was my fault partially that she was in this mess.
“Next, I would like to discuss what will be happening with Pendra. I will be taking a very small group down with me to deal with here, but I will need work done on the QBee Drone quickly so I can use the BeeBliss serum on her when we find Pendra. I will also need a way to keep Serria safe with me,” I explained, but Serria turned around with a smile.
“I have my own MechaBee Drone now, and all of the drones have gone through major overhauls. I will be able to ride with you and stay in the ship safely,” Serria explain, and Gamble stood up at the same time.
“Yes, and I have everything that I could think of loaded into your Drone, and I should be able to keep in contact with you the entire time. Will you be talking to others with you? I don’t think that you will be able to handle Pendra alone, even with Serria’s help,” Gamble explained, and I nodded.
“Yes, I will be taking Tag and Sig, and I will be marking both of them. Since the Queen’s Blessing will not work on the MechaBee Drones, and Leah and Joni will be protecting Riza, this is the best option,” I explained, and Gamble nodded.
“Good, they will be the best two for the job. I don’t think that we really need to discuss this much more since I will be in full contact with you,” Gamble said, and I nodded to him.
After that, I went over numerous other things before finally setting my chairs down. This was progressing fast, but in the few days, not a lot had changed other than making room for everyone.
Once I was finished, Everyone left to get back to what they were doing, and I was finally done. I had been talking nonstop since I got up, but that was part of my job, and the talking was far from over.
We had a few things that needed to be done before I headed down to Pendra. Gamble followed my guards and me back to Leah’s room, where she was still frozen in stasis.
“Are you excited to see Leah?” I asked Riza as we walked to their room.
“Yes, but I am still a bit worried about you leaving me in charge. I don’t have any experience with this kind of thing,” Riza said as we walked, and I put an arm on her shoulder to comfort her.
“Look, I had no idea what I was doing, and most of the time, I just make stuff up as I go. You will have my four wives, Gamble, and your own two wives to act as your guard; you will do great, and if you have questions, you can ask Gamble to ask me,” I explained, and that seemed to take some of the stress out of Riza.
“I will try to do my best, and I will ask you if I am not sure what to do,” Riza said as we arrived at her door.
“That is all that I can ask of you,” I said with a smile, and then Joni piped up.
“You only feel that way now; once Leah is back with us, you will have your confidence back,” Joni said as she leaned in to kiss Riza, but Riza was trying, unsuccessfully, to keep her off.
“Joni! Stop it! My sister, I mean my Queen is right there!” Riza complained as Joni almost knocked her over, finally stealing the kiss she had been going for.
While the two got themselves pulled apart, I smiled, and turned to Miku, and leaned down to give her a kiss. Miku seemed surprised at first, but she didn’t wait for more than a second to move forwards and meet my lips with hers.
After we had finished, I turned back to find that the girls were already inside the room with the golden Leah, waiting. I also noticed that Gamble was studying a wall very intently.
Yes, he was still the same person, and I was glad that he had not changed too much. I had been worried that the extra copies of him might have been too much, but he still seemed to be his old self under all the professionalism he displayed now.
“Sorry, Gamble, I should be more thoughtful when you are around,” I said with a smile, but Gamble waved me off.
“Absolutely not; you are allowed to have personal time with your wives! I am just me, and I get embarrassed about silly things, so don’t mind me, but I will give you this and ask that you come to see me in my office in Manufacturing when you are done here. I would also like to talk about the Threads that I have been studying,” Gamble said after handing me a small case. “Inside are the last three doses I have right now of the Royal BeeBliss Serum. I don’t know what to do if you give it to a person that is not under evolution, but the basic BeeBliss Serum has enhancing effects, so this should be much better.”
