Epic of Bee-Chapter 17 Dear Bee God

Xani found me a bunch of pillows and I mean a lot, but I didn't complain. It was nice to sit cross-legged, and all the pillows under me helped boost me up so my tail could sit at an angle.

Riza and Messia each sat at one side of me holding my lower hands in their laps. I needed to use them to keep balance on the pillows, but the girls leaned into me so I was pretty stable and able to focus on Miku and Xani.

"This is a Sky Orb, but without one of the Sky Eel Folk, it is impossible to use," Xani explained, while holding a soft blue glowing orb that Miku took out of her hand.

"It still looks really pretty, and it's always warm! Want to hold it?" Miku asked as she hopped off to give me the orb that I took excitedly.

My first magical item! Imagine then the envy of all my non-existent real friends, haha. Plus, the people that I did talk to were just people on blogs and chat rooms that would just tell me it was a fake.

There was no comparing the two and I planned on stopping that. I was in this world now, and there was no looking back because I hadn't actually been living, just waiting for my big chance.

,m Miku was right, and the orb was very warm but not hot, just right. I could sleep with this in bed and always be warm; speaking of sleep, I wonder how that was going to go?𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

[Queen System] Activated.

'Please hold the object up to your eyes and slowly move it around so I can scan it,' Queeny asked me as my eyes burst with a soft blue light that made both, Riza and Messia squeal in surprise.

Honestly, I can only smile at this point, and I'm sure I looked stupid, but I was a pretty happy Bee. Bee eyes that lit up soft blue and scanned magical items?

Dear Bee God, I promise not to complain or think about the past anymore! Just keep giving me cool stuff!

[Item Scan] Completed!

[Levitation Orb]: *Requires [Wind Magic], Levitation Orb is capable of moving 15000 tons at altitudes up to 4000m above sea level.

[Wind Magic] (Gene) Acquired! 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

Woah! I not only can scan, but I also can gain… Genes?! Queeny, what can Genes be used for?

'Genes are used during your evolution. While in your Evolution stage, you will be able to choose five Genes and you will receive Skills, Talents, and Abilities. During this time you will be in metamorphosis for two days, and you will go through slight changes in your body depending on the Genes you choose,' Queeny explained.

"Are you okay?" Messia asked with concern just as Queeny finished.

"Yes, sorry. I just scanned this item and this will be very useful in the future. We could possibly make a floating hive using this if we figure out how it works after I evolve," I explained. "Sorry if I go quiet, I am talking to Queeny, but I guess I can try talking to her out loud so you know if I am listening to her. Does that help?" I asked, and all the girls nodded, and that was fine.

I was starting to feel pretty rude just going blank every time I and Queeny talked.

'I can come in my set Avatar form if that will help everything,' Queeny offered.

YES! What Avatar will you be using?

In response, there was a puff of smoke and an odd-looking bee appeared. Odd wasn't the right word for the cute box-like metal bees, it was adorable!

I grabbed it out of the air and squashed it into my face, and it was soft like a plushy.

"What are you doing to me!" Queeny buzzed until I finally let her go.

She was only about fist-sized, but built like a box, but furry and soft. This was great, what next world?

"Is this the God-Tech that is in your head?" Messia asked while reaching out to touch Queeny, but her hand passed through it.

"Only Ashia can touch me, I am only projected through her eyes. She can touch me because I can make her senses believe that they are touching something that isn't there, by simulation feeling and restricting movements," Queeny explained.

"Does that mean that you could stop her from moving or feeling?" Riza asked, and it was a question that I was just about to ask myself.

"No, this is a feature of the System, and I do not control its function. I just know how it works," Queeny told Riza, but then she stopped and started to look around.

Queeny started to fly around the room looking at different things while the rest of us could just watch in fascination.

"Ashia, please come here and scan this item. After that there are a few more that I have identified," Queeny called over to me.

I got the girls to help me up, and I gave a little stretch before walking over to where Queeny was floating, watching my Bee tail as I did.

--------

Uck, I was done, no more! My eyes! Too many items!

Okay, it was only five, but it took two hours to do them!

First, there was the Masking Mask of the Raccoon Folk that made you invisible, but also blind. That was a bit of a catch there, but if you found someone that could see by using something else or was already blind, this could be good.

Then there was the Carved Rock, but it turned out to be one of four Mountains Path Sigils. There wasn't much about it in Queeny's current files other than that I needed to find the other three stones, duh.

The next one was the most interesting, but it was also the most of a lot of other things. Like the most time to scan. The most dangerous species, The Meccat, also the most evolved species on the planet as a race of Cyborg Cats; those parts were less exciting.

The last item was just a pink gemstone on a golden necklace that the girls told me that I could have. They said they didn't want it because it didn't do anything but make them lazy.

When I scanned it, it turned out to be a Calming Stone. With the right direction, it could be used on yourself or on others.

I also got the Thief, Stone, Mecha, and Pacifying Genes. In the end, I got to keep all but the Meccat leg, and that was fine.

Now was time for the sticky sweet stuff! Time for Miku to drink my Royal Honey! So dirty, but so sweet!
