Episode 66
“Are you the queen bee?”
In response to Suho’s question Arsha smiled and nodded.
“yes. “This is the queen bee I was looking for.”
“What is your relationship with Quresha?”
Arsha’s smile wavered at Suho’s direct question.
“You know the monarch well. Should I say that he is indeed a descendant of the Fang Lord?”
“….”
“Oh my what is that expression? You’re giving off the scent of an animal all over your body. Did you really think I wouldn’t notice? “I am not a fool.”
“…?”
Suho was speechless for a moment at the meaningful expression of Babosha or Arsha.
Hwiooh.
At that moment a divine wind swept through Suho’s pure white hair.
[The canine monarch the king of beasts holds his stomach against the queen bee’s hollow legs and twists.]
The descendant of the true Fang Lord was now possessed in Suho’s body.
“But it’s a bit disappointing that the descendants of the Fang Lord took away the worker bees I worked so hard to create. Is this the famous power of the Fang Lord who ‘despises the weak’? Commanding beasts weaker than yourself? “Am I right?”
“….”
no. It’s all wrong.
Nothing was right.
Why does he keep saying nonsense with a fatal expression?
[The Fang Lord the king of beasts holds his stomach and twists.]
‘Stop laughing. There’s just not enough information but he probably isn’t that stupid.’
Why is the embarrassment your own?
Suho who was embarrassed for no reason made Arsha’s excuse instead.
[It is natural to misunderstand.]
At that moment Berg delivered a voice directly into Suho’s head so that Arsha could not hear it.

[As I said before in order for a monarch’s descendants to exist the monarch must die first to fill the empty space. However the Shadow Lord the winner of the war is alive and well…]
‘No one will think of me as a descendant of the Shadow Lord. It’s like that in reality too.’
Although Ber always called Suho a minor lord strictly speaking he was only the son of the shadow lord and not an official successor.
In the first place descendants of the Shadow Lord cannot exist in the world.
Because Seong Jin-woo the monarch who rules over death will never die.
The clear evidence was Suho’s status window.
[Status Window]
Name: Seong Su-ho
Level: 28
Occupation: None
If Su-ho had been the official successor there was no way that occupation would have remained blank.
There was more evidence.
Those shadow soldiers standing firmly behind Su-ho.
Because Suho was not a monarch he could not lead an army.
So even if you extract them as shadow soldiers they will only be used as daily workers.
After just one day it returns to nothing…
However there was no need to explain this to Arsha in detail.
If you are mistaken it makes sense to take advantage of it.
‘Let’s see how it turns out first.’
Suho asked Arsha a question instead of an answer.
“So you are a descendant of Quresha?”
“Hmm. well. In fact all of us bugs are his descendants. Queresha is one and a hive. She is the mother of all bugs.”
“If you change your mind you will die.”
[Actually the horse is being passed around by Lord Sogun…]
Let’s ignore Ver’s whispers for a moment.
“Oh my. “Be scared.”
As Suho’s momentum grew Arsha raised her hands in an exaggerated gesture and made a gesture of surrender.
Then an amazing sight unfolded.
Wayeng-
At that moment Arsha’s hands were split into numerous bees and scattered.
[Kihak! How dare you…!]
In an instant Ber’s hand quickly grabbed the air in anger.
Patter.
In that attack several small bees fell on the table.
The remaining bees flocked back to Arsha and turned into hands again.
Ber’s eyes narrowed.
[mimesis. This is something weak insects often do to protect themselves.]

“Hehe. “Is struggling to survive the fundamental nature of bugs?”
“Where did the main body go?”
“oh. “Are you not surprised at all?”
Even in this situation Suho remained calm.
That’s right….
‘I couldn’t see the name tag from the beginning.’
From the beginning instead of the name Arsha Suho saw something else in his eyes.
The name tags of the numerous [Contaminated Wasps] gathered around Arsha’s body.
“yes that’s right. I left here immediately. “Recently one of the worker bees I had carefully raised rebelled against me so I decided to move the hive.”
“worker? No way…”
“yes that’s right. Vice President Lee Min-seong who is a hot topic these days.”
Arsha answers with a small sigh.
Her eyes suddenly turned to the shadow lancers standing behind Suho.
“You know what? Those lancers were once human too. “When I came to Earth I fed royal jelly to the men who approached me with evil intentions so they evolved into worker bees.”
“Royal jelly? “What is that?”
“It is the power of the queen bee.”
Queen bee Arsha had a ‘poison’ in her body since she was born.
A special poison called royal jelly.
The poison is as sweet as honey but the moment it enters the host’s body it transforms the host into a loyal worker bee that follows only the queen bee.
“But the conditions for making them into worker bees are quite strict.”
“condition?”
“yes. Those who cannot withstand the toxicity of royal jelly die immediately and those who have some immunity rot alive.”
It rots….
Like Dongjae Dongjae’s arm?
‘It’s a good thing I cut it right away.’
This means that catching anyone and feeding them royal jelly does not mean that they will all evolve into worker bees.
At first Arsha had to go through a lot of trial and error.
“So I opened a bar and kept feeding royal jelly to this person. “Then I realized it.”
Those who meekly accepted the power of the queen bee and willingly gave up humanity to become worker bees.
They had one thing in common.
“craving.”
Arsha’s eyes shined magically.
“The more a person has stronger desires than others the more easily they give up on being human.”
“….”
Every human being has desires.
However the size of the desire was different for each person and the types were diverse.
Among them especially those who desire ‘strength’.
That is Hunter.
“So among the hunters I found those who were not satisfied with their own strength and wanted to become stronger somehow. Oh it was easy to find. “I threw out a bait and they gathered on their own.”
Suho immediately realized what the method was.
“Stardust….”
“yes that’s right. When we fed royal jelly to hunters using stardust the healthiest worker bees were born? “At the same time I received stardust distribution from Vice President Lee Min-seong.”
The more I look back the more Lee Min-seong was a good worker to Arsha in many ways.
Even when he was a human he was a great help but what I was most excited about was when he became a real worker bee.
Because although he had the strength of an A-class he aspired to become an S-class.
“So I really put a lot of effort into raising it.”
If he was unsuitable his body would die so we took time to get him used to royal jelly little by little.
Just like a vaccine.
It was fed a small amount of poison every day.
“But I guess I fed him too much. The vaccine was too strong. He ended up running away from me.”
[You ran away?]
It was Ber who reacted first to those words.
A worker bee running away from the queen bee?
For an ant serving a great king this was an unthinkable act.
“yes. “It became a worker bee but a worker bee was born that refused to become a member of my queen.”
Arsha sighed with a truly embarrassed expression.
“He even started to gather his own army as if he wanted to imitate me. “On the topic of failure.”
“…!”
corps.
Suho’s expression hardened at that familiar yet ominous word.
* * *
Outside Times Square at that time.
Unusual signs were occurring throughout the city.
“Ugh….”
Did you drink too much alcohol?
Citizens were whispering as they watched the passerby stumbling around holding his throbbing head.
“Why is that person like that?”
“I don’t know. I think he’s a hunter? “You’re wearing armor.”
“Hey hey. “Let’s avoid getting involved and causing trouble.”
There were often people like that among hunters.
Those who suddenly awaken as high-level hunters become wealthy quickly and lose self-control.
If such people had gotten involved in drunken behavior this is not an exaggeration but their lives could have been in real danger.
People started whispering and secretly distancing themselves from the hunter.
Right then.
Hunter who was walking in a strange posture suddenly turned his head towards the people.
That moment.
Creepy.
“…!”
A face rotting like a corpse exposed.
“mama….”
The expressions on the faces of the people who saw that quickly became tired.
Hehe.
Finally the hunter’s mouth opened brightly and he lunged at the citizens.
“Grrr-!”
“Aaaah!”
“Masudaa-!”
The screams spread like fire due to the sudden appearance of a humanoid demon beast.
But the screams were coming from another alley.
It wasn’t just one guy.
* * *
The association is in an emergency.
-Dozens of villains are indiscriminately attacking citizens! Dispatch the combatants closest to the scene immediately!
At that moment an order from superiors came to Team Leader Han Jae-hyuk who was tracking Lee Min-seong.
“You crazy people! “Why are there so many villains these days?”
Han Jae-hyuk immediately dragged his men and moved to the place where the villains had appeared.
“Sooooo…!”
The scene was a mess.
Corpses dying in gruesome ways.
The villains step on them and pass by.
‘No he’s not a villain.’
Crunch.
Han Jae-hyuk who arrived at the scene and finally saw what they were like got goosebumps.
Villain refers to an awakened person who becomes a criminal.
But the moment I saw them my instincts gave me a strong warning.
‘That’ is not a human being.
Like Mist Burn people who were once human but turned into demonic beasts.
The association recently gave them a new name.
Mutant.
“Grrrrgh!”
At that moment the mutants who were rotting like corpses discovered the association hunters and began to attack them.
A fierce battle began and Han Jae-hyuk deployed his defense skills and urgently raised the radio and shouted.
“Report! They’re not villains they’re mutants! Conversation appears to be completely impossible and we are woefully short of power…!”
“Ugh!”
At that moment one of the association’s hunters who was evacuating citizens was attacked and fell.
Then mutants rushed towards him as he fell.
“Why on earth are you so strong!”
Han Jae-hyuk who was on the radio witnessed the incident one step too late and rushed in.
It was then.
“Start shooting.”
Shoo shoo shoo!
Suddenly a rain of arrows falls from the sky.
“That’s it…!”
It was truly spectacular.
The arrows rained down indiscriminately avoiding people and hitting only the bodies of the mutants.
Han Jae-hyuk surprised looked back.
Then hunters from the famous Shinigami Guild were all aiming their bows there.
“The Immigration Office told me to come out but I didn’t come out. What kind of situation is this?”
And among them Lim Tae-gyu stands with a grim expression.
He checked the mutants one by one and screamed.
“Why on earth did our guild members end up like this!”
The mutants who appeared on the streets were all members of the Reaper Guild who had been kidnapped by Lee Min-seong.
