Although Lee Min-seong managed to escape from Queen Arsha, he was forced to continue to run away, pursued by the contaminated knights.
The spearmen were obviously weaker than the immigrants, but it was impossible to kill them.
Every time he tried to kill them, a powerful message would ring out in Lee Min-seong’s head, causing him to suffer from a terrible headache.
-Obey the Queen!
-Obey the Queen!
[Kwak! Shut up! Shut up!]
Immigration seemed like it was going to really turn around.
As soon as I relaxed even a little, I felt a strong desire to return to the queen bee on my own two feet, kneel down, and swear my loyalty.
-Obey the Queen!
[Stop! Stop! Get out of my head!]
Lee Min-seong tried everything to get away from the voice, but nothing worked.
Even though I covered my ears and banged my head on the floor, the voice did not stop.
It was natural.
It wasn’t a voice in the first place.
The instinct of a worker bee reborn for the queen bee.
And it was a very humiliating feeling for Lee Min-seong, who had always been above others.
-Obey the Queen… … !
[I refuse! I am not a worker bee!]
He gritted his teeth and forcibly suppressed his instincts.
And the place he barely managed to escape the pursuit of the knights and hide was, ironically, the vice president’s office of the Death God Guild.
[Whew. Right, this is where I belong. This isn’t a beehive or anything.]
He was out of breath and about to take a sip of wine from the cellar as usual, but his expression suddenly crumpled.
[… … That’s exactly why!]
The wine in his hand was the real culprit of this situation.
Every time I visited Queen Bee, Madame always gave me a high-quality wine and royal jelly.
This was the queen bee’s venom!
[I drank this kind of stuff every day, so that’s why I ended up like this… … !]
sudden!
Lee Min-seong lifted the wine bottle high to throw it, then paused for a moment.
[……for a moment.]
When I saw this queen bee’s venom, a good idea suddenly came to me.
A way to suppress the worker bee’s instincts came to mind.
If you use this… … .
[I might be able to create my own legion.]
Lee Min-seong poured his magic power into the queen bee’s royal jelly.
In this way, the properties of royal jelly were dyed with their own colors.
[Okay. Now, if you are poisoned by this poison, you will no longer be a queen bee, but will become a loyal soldier to me.]
Lee Min-seong absorbed the newly manufactured royal jelly into his stinger.
Then I went straight outside and attacked the lower-level hunters and injected them with royal jelly.
But for some reason, they died right there on the spot.
[Tsk. Weaklings. Can’t even stand this much poison.]
Lee Min-seong clicked his tongue and went to find stronger mid-level hunters.
But the results are the same for intermediate hunters.
They all died from poisoning, vomiting blood.
[Why do I keep dying?]
Immigration was confusing.
Could there be something wrong with your royal jelly?
He continued to attack the Hunters over and over again until he figured out why.
Then finally a success story emerged.
But of all people, the target was… …a hunter from the Grim Reaper Guild he belonged to.
[… … Is it a coincidence?]
At first I thought it was just a coincidence.
But that wasn’t the case.
No matter how many times I tried it, the only ones who survived the royal jelly were the hunters of the Death Guild.
[How did this happen?]
Then, eventually, Lee Min-seong realized the reason.
[Could it be that they are the ones who followed me from the beginning?]
Royal jelly was originally a poison that created worker bees.
The object of that loyalty was, of course, the queen bee.
[But I am not a queen.]
Even if you forced loyalty to Lee Min-seong, who was at best just another worker bee, there was no worker bee that would be loyal.
However, the members of the Death God Guild who had been his subordinates from the beginning were an exception.
In their minds, loyalty to the ‘Vice President of Immigration’ was basically engraved.
The reason for that loyalty was nothing more than a shallow master-servant relationship tied to salary and rank, but ironically, it was the most tightly bound master-servant relationship among humans.
When he realized the principle, Lee Min-seong burst into laughter.
[So does that mean that my magically imbued royal jelly is only eaten by the members of the Death Guild? Hehehe. This is fun. This is really fun.]
Somehow, the slaves he created with his royal jelly seemed very different from the ‘knights’ who resembled soldiers.
Slaves of immigration are reborn as ‘tainted ghouls’ who are closer in appearance to humans than bees.
[Hehehe. This too may be fate.]
It’s better this way.
If I use this ability, I might be able to take everything away from that unlucky kid, Im Tae-gyu.
No, from the beginning, the position of guild leader was not suitable for someone like that.
[Im Tae-gyu was a better fit for me when he was my chauffeur, right? While I’m at it, I should make him addicted and turn him into my slave.]
I don’t know if my royal jelly would work on an S-class, but if it worked, it would be a jackpot.
That kid was once a chauffeur who obeyed his orders, so it was quite possible.
Lee Min-seong felt good at the thought of using Im Tae-gyu as a slave.
In fact, being reborn as a worker bee wasn’t all bad.
If we take away the instinct to be loyal to the queen bee, there are actually many more good points.
The Queen Bee melted and compressed all of her human nature into a highly evolved form of a fighting race.
It’s a bit unfortunate that all the skills I had when I was human have disappeared, but aren’t skills meant for combat after all?
It was actually beneficial to compress all that power into a transcendent body specialized for combat.
Maybe, in his current state, he could even beat Taegyu Lim.
[Hehe. Actually, he’s S-class. That bastard Taegyu Lim is just a bowman who shoots arrows from behind. If you make him addicted first and then prevent him from using his weapon, you have a good chance of winning… … .]
… … That’s how immigration came to this point.
All of his plans had been successful so far, and now Tae-gyu Lim was standing in front of him, looking exhausted.
‘We can win now!’
Lee Min-seong was confident.
I will knock down Im Tae-gyu, whom I hate to see in that state, with my own hands, trample on his face, and spit on him.
And just like before the cataclysm, he planned to make them his slaves and use them for the rest of their lives… … .
‘What on earth is that person next to me?’
Lee Min-seong felt an ominous feeling as he looked at Su-ho next to Im Tae-gyu.
It’s like having a queen bee in front of you…
No, if she had been the queen bee, I would have felt a surge of loyalty, but I felt the opposite from Soo-ho.
horror.
A pure fear welled up in me, as if I were facing a natural enemy.
‘Why? It doesn’t look that strong.’
After becoming a worker bee, Lee Min-seong’s sense of judging the level of others developed to an extreme.
Judging by the magical power I felt from Suho at the moment, he was clearly a C-class hunter.
No matter how well you hit it, it will only be at a B-level.
In fact, the more threatening presence was the A-class hunter Baek Mi-ho standing next to him.
But why on earth is that?
Why do you want to run away from here right now?
Why is my body now stiff like a frog in front of a snake?
‘The natural enemy of insects’
This uneasy feeling touched Lee Min-seong’s pride.
[… … What a bad guy.]
Lee Min-seong tried hard to shake off the anxiety he felt and showed his full power.
Quaoooo!
A tremendous amount of energy swept over Lee Min-seong.
On the other hand, Suho felt the exact opposite of Lee Min-seong.
‘He’s clearly stronger than me, but I don’t think I could possibly lose.’
Suho opened the store window straight away.
Clang.
[You purchased ‘Item: Quiver (100)’.] [You purchased ‘Item: Quiver (100)’.]
In an instant, two heavy quivers were placed in Suho’s hands.
“Now, if you can’t use magic arrows, use this instead.”
“… … !”
Lim Tae-gyu, who was suddenly handed a quiver of arrows, looked at Su-ho with his eyes wide open.
“No, where did you suddenly get something like this… … ?!”
“I’m a summoner.”
Suho shrugged his shoulders, making excuses.
“Of course it’s not free. I’ll charge you for it all later, so don’t be stingy and use it generously. I’ll give you more when you use it all up.”
“Oh, okay! Thank you!”
Tae-gyu Lim nods with a bright expression.
Now it didn’t matter whether Suho was a healer or a summoner.
You can worry about those things later.
Im Tae-gyu’s expression suddenly changed as he turned his head towards his enemies.
The ‘Bow of the God of Death’ was a S-class weapon that could kill demons even with ordinary arrows.
The moment it was in the hands of the strongest S-class archer in Korea along with the arrow.
He became a true hunter.
Shushu shu shu shush-!
Im Tae-gyu’s arrows pierced the heads and hearts of the ghouls that were attacking from all directions.
“Leave all the restraint to me, and you just catch that one guy, Lee Min-seong!”
I would have liked to have personally defeated Lee Min-seong, but I had already confirmed that it was impossible since I had no magic power.
Now he could no longer afford to waste time on his own greed.
A full-scale battle began with Im Tae-gyu’s shout.
“Let’s go!”
“Yes, yes!”
Suho and Baek Miho jumped out towards Lee Minseong.
[Kiririk!]
At that moment, the wings of the Shadow Knight sprouted behind Suho and Baek Miho.
Wedge-!
They flew towards the immigration at incredible speed and launched a fierce attack.
Swish! Boom! Boom!
[Slow.]
But Lee Min-seong laughed at them and dodged their attacks with ease.
‘How is this speed?!’
At Lee Min-seong’s movements, Baek Mi-ho urgently warned Su-ho.
“Mr. Suho, be careful! If you just look at the speed, it’s far beyond Class A!”
Did those words sound good to you?
Lee Min-seong raised the corners of his mouth with an expression of utter bliss.
[Kuuuuu! That’s right! I have already surpassed humans. Your slow burst attacks won’t even touch my body!]
“Oh, really?”
Shudder.
Lee Min-seong’s mood instantly became uncomfortable at Su-ho’s insignificant response.
No matter how much you try to ignore it, Suho’s very existence continues to be seen.
[… … This won’t work. I’ll kill you first!]
Lee Min-seong flies straight towards Su-ho, exploding with fierce momentum.
And at that moment, the sharp spear in his hand was about to pierce Suho’s heart.
Hehe.
Suho laughed.
‘I’ve been waiting for this moment.’
Suho shouted with his eyes sparkling.
“Come out!”
… … !
Shwaaaaaaaah-!
Suddenly, numerous black rays of light shot out from Suho’s body and rushed towards Lee Min-seong at the same time.
[This, this is… …?!]
At that moment, Lee Min-seong’s eyes widened and a feeling of bewilderment came over him.
It was visible to the bee’s eyes that transcended humans.
The identity of those rays of light.
Spearman.
The Queen Bee’s knights who had been pursuing her so persistently had appeared!
[This is ridiculous… … .]
Lee Min-seong was startled and suddenly changed direction right before attacking Su-ho.
Anyway, his speed was much faster than theirs.
It’s so close, but I can still run away… … !
chin.
“… … !”
Suddenly, Suho grabbed the tip of Lee Minseong’s spear, which was about to stab his heart, with his hand.
“Got you, you punk.”
[Let go!]
Lee Min-seong, startled, tries his best to shake off Su-ho.
But it was already too late.
“Kill him.”
[Kiririk!] [Kihiiiiit-!]
The spears of the shadow knights flying from all directions began to mercilessly attack Lee Min-seong’s body.
