Bab 138: 138: The Colony

The Worker Bees, thanks to the special skill bestowed upon them by the Queen Bee, possessed a shared visual consciousness that allowed them to see through the eyes of their fellow colony members.

Because of this, they had quickly discovered Val's location when he was fighting the Worker Bee patrolling the forest and quickly reached him.

They had witnessed him ruthlessly kill one of their own and were now infuriated, seeking to tear him to pieces at any cost.

"Well, this is a sticky situation." Val smirked, "But I'm not the kind to get stung even once." He raised his sword, looking at it with eyes glittering with anticipation. "Let's paint the town red, shall we, Aquarius?"

The sword hummed in response, putting a slight smile on Val's face.

"Rage, Aquarius!" Val called out, swinging his sword in a wide horizontal arc. The blade of Aquarius ignited with a crimson glow, and as he swung it, a slim arc of red energy erupted from the body of the sword.
