Epic of Bee - Chapter 81

I decided that I would wait for a bit before I outed Miku and got her to come out of hiding. I was surprised that she has stayed like that for so long.

I also wondered if it was okay for her to Bee in that state for so long? For now, I would just let her keep hiding.

I flew down with the boys into the entry-level of the ship, and the boys went over to talk to the other guards that were standing around the bodies. It might seem like they were over-cautious, but in my opinion, you could never talk to take precautions when the enemy was unknown.

I wish I could pick Beelzi’s brain about the different things in this world or if Hilda had some of her memories back.

*Poof!*

“That is what I wanted to talk to you about. What Beezli and I were talking about,” Hilda said as she appeared.

I flew to the clothes taken off the Predators and lighted down on the ground in front of them. Then, I looked at Hilda and nodded for her to continue.

“I wanted to ask Beezli if there was any way for me to have a physical form in this world. I am limited to the things that I can do like this,” Hilda explained to me.

“A body? I can’t see why that would be a bad thing; in fact, you would be able to help me more. I could actually send you to do tasks, and you could help others understand the different things in the navigation room,” I said with excitement, but then I slowed myself.

“Yes, there is that, and I didn’t want to get your hopes up, but I also wanted to get some more information before I came to you with this idea,” Hilda told me, and that made me think deeper about what that could mean.

There was the chance that if I gave her a body somehow, then she might just leave, but I didn’t think that was possible. The other thing is if she did get a body back in this world, would she still be the same, Hilda?

I had grown quite fond of my helper, and being able to have her as a person that I could still communicate with my thoughts to would be perfect. The question was, would she get her memories back and go back to the woman no one seemed very fond of?

“I can answer all of them, but some of the answers you might not like, but there is nothing for it. I cannot leave you, nor would I want to. You have proven that you are determined and wise beyond what I could have hoped for. As for your final question, yes, I will get my memories back, but I will also still be the person that you know now and have known since you were born into this world,” Hilda explained.

While I didn’t like that answer, like she had said, it was understandable. Hopefully, the time we have spent together outweighs the haughtiness that the Sky Eel Goddess was known for.

“Okay, then how do we do it, and what did Beezli want to talk about?” I asked after briefly mulling it over.

“She wants the same thing, back in this world so she can help, and she doesn’t like talking with the other gods because of the way they are forced to talk to each other. Beezli said that she is getting bored and that we look like we are having all the fun, her words, not mine,” Hilda said, rolling her eyes.

“Okay, that wouldn’t be back either, but that still doesn’t explain how I can get you two out of there,” I said as I walked over and started to scan one of the white and red marked robes, but something went wrong.

[Queen System] Activated!

[Item Scan] Error!

The red markings on all the suits suddenly lit up, and then a message flashed across my screen before I could react.

[WARNING: AUTO PROTECTION SYSTEM ACTIVATED]

[Summon Guard] Activated!

[Summon Guard] Activated!

Everything happened in slow motion, but I was paralyzed with fear and shock; I was about to die again! Suddenly, Tag and Sig appeared in front of me, and before I could scream for them to move, the world turned white, and I was hurtled across the room.

I slammed into the wall, and I heard and felt both my left wings crunch and pain like I had never felt before ripped through my body, making me cry out. I fell to the ground, and waves of pain rolled through my body, making me feel like I was going to pass out, but I could.

I looked over, and I could see the boys lying on the ground, and they were both on the ground and bleeding. There was a massive hole in the side of the ship, and I could hear the alarms going off, and I could hear people coming, but I just pulled myself to the boys.

Neither of them moved, but then Miku was beside me.

“Don’t move; you are seriously hurt, the,” Miku tried to tell me, but I cried through my tears.

“Please just go make sure they are still….”

*THUMP!*

The sound of a heavy pair of boots slamming down cut my tear-filled plea off as I stared at the massive white and red-cloaked figure. The Predator was more than twice the size of the other dead ones, and he started walking directly towards me.

“He said you would fall for a stupid trick like that; he also said that you would use your own people as a shield. Pathetic, I would have just died, but then what He is going to do to you. Now, no fighting, or I will be killing every person on this ship, or you can come with me and save them their lives for now,” The massive cloaked creature said in a low growl that was in a condescending tone.
