Chapter 95: Fire spirit and bee army<hr>
While searching the forest, Koihi finally found Honey Bees. There is a nest in the branch of a tree. Now, how to attack it...basically, the ideal is to use fire and me magic to destroy it from a distance, but Honey Bee is expected to be fast anyway. We''ll probably be stuck with magic alone. If that''s the case, Aranea''s traps are important. The opponent is a flying insect. If this is the spider web building skill, it should be enough insurance.
I asked Aranea to build a spider web in front of us. This skill, it''s going to change the whole concept of hunting.
Aranea came back, having used up all its magic power. Thank you for your hard work. It''s our job now.
"Setia I ask for a spirit summon"
"I''m on it"
"Koihi I first ask for Trid Hell"
Trid Hell has a wide range of effects, so if you can increase the power of fire magic, you should use this first.
"I, I''ll do my best!"
"I will then do damage with a Fire Shower. Konoha attacked with wind magic. I think it''s okay, but be careful of Aranea''s spider web. After that, I''ll make a decision based on their condition. Loco Moco and Aranea stay by my side"
"Hoo"
"Mee~"
Konoha and Loco Moco responded. Aranea can''t speak.
Then let''s do it. Setia activates the spirit summoning.
"Summon Spirit!"
A red magic circle floats on the ground and a burning girl the size of a palm appears from it. This is the spirit. As we look at her, she talks to Setia. So she can talk. But the content was not good.
"Tsk. I get called out ande out to find a bby little elf"
I thought I heard a snapping sound from Setia.
"...I don''t know who you''re talking about"
Setia, have you forgotten what you said to Ion? If you answer these questions, you will lose. But she knew that ignoring it wouldn''t change the result.
"I''m talking about you. Y-o-u"
The spirit said, pping Setia on the forehead. I thought that Setia''s anger would explode, but she copsed. Looking at the status, she has no magic power. It''s the same as Lily.
"What? You. You''re out of magic power? Worthless"
"...~!!"
Setia looks frustrated. She''s sping the grass on the ground. The spirit who told Setia is worthless ising here.
"Are you the master of that elf?"
"Yes. I''m Takuto, a summoner"
"Huh"
The spirit flies around me, looking at me. Her reaction is different from before.
"Yes! You''re good! I like you!"
For some reason, she liked me.
"So what do you want me to do? I can attack and support"
He~. That''s convenient. But this time I''m going to attack.
"I''m going to take down those Honey Bees now. Will you help me?"
"I''ll take care of it! A hundred bees won''t hurt me"
"That''s good to know. We''ll shoot our ranged magic first and then you''re free to fight"
"That''s good advice. Now that you mention it, I''ll have to show you the power of a fire spirit!"
I think I know why she liked me and not Setia. This fire spirit seems to be warlike. Setia doesn''t like to fight. I think it was this personality mismatch that led to this result.
In case you were wondering, the fire spirit was a support frame, separate from the party members, so it was no problem. So let''s get started.
"Trid Hell!"
Koihi uses Trid Hell. A magic circle was drawn on the ground and the ground and trees were engulfed in fire, creating a fiery hell as the word implied. But this is an environmental problem, isn''t it? I wonder if the trees will be okay?
Sensing Koihis magic, many bees emerge from the hive. My identification skill catch them.
<b>Honey Bee Lv3</b>
<b>Summon Monster Subjugation Target Active</b>
<b>Wasp Lv15</b>
<b>Tame Monster Subjugation Target Active</b>
<b>Carpenter Bee Lv15</b>
<b>Tame Monster Subjugation Target Active</b>
<b>Killer Bee Lv5</b>
<b>Summon Monster Subjugation Target Active</b>
Hold on! Hey! I told you not to do that because it''s traumatizing! And how many of them were in that little nest? Something like a giant ho is heading over here! That''s crazy!
Anyway, if they get too close, it''s over! I''m not going to let them sting me!
"Fire Shower!"
Fireballs rain down around the beehive. The bee army was being burned, but they didn''t die and came towards us. A swarm of bees. Trauma!
The fire spirit is delighted by the scene.
"Ahaha! Nice fire and me magic! Now it''s my turn!"
With that, the fire spirit leaps forward. Ah, the spider web. But the fire spirit slipped through it. Oh, by the way, Setia said it was a nature spirit. So it can''t be caught in the spider web because it''s a spirit.
The fire spirit plunged straight into the swarm of bees. Then she invokes a spell or something.
"Fire Dance"
The fire spirit says this and the fire spirit soars through the air, scattering fire dust. The bees that came in contact with the fire were set aze one by one. The ckened corpses of the bees were mass-produced on the ground. I guess it''s true what they say.
And then, she wiped them all out safely. Phew...thank God. I guess I should thank the fire spirit.
Just as I''m thinking this, the beehive glows and turns into a monster. It''s a giant bee the size of a man holding a beehive. I identify it.
<b>Queen Wasp?</b>
<b>? ? ?</b>
Yeah. I thought it was the Queen Wasp! But the fire sparks of the fire spirit are still alive and well. It burns the Queen Wasp, but the Queen Waspes to me, burning.
It''s like something out of a dream...but I still have a safeguard. The Queen Wasp is caught in the spider''s web. I didn''t see thising, but it turned out okay!
"me Circle!"
"Red Ray!
A pir of fire and a sh of red light from the ground catches the queen wasp and it explodes. That stopped it and we won a big victory.
Of course there is a level up, but I will dismantle first. But it looks like that''s where we have to say goodbye to the fire spirit.
"Looks like that''s it...it''s been a while since I''ve had a good time"
"I see. I would have been in danger if it weren''t for you. Thank you so much"
"Thanks again. I''d still like to talk to you, but I think I''ve reached my limit"
Then she approached Setia.
"See youter. Let those poor breasts grow"
With that, the fire spirit disappeared. Needless to say, the cry of Setia''s heart echoed through the forest.
Despite the incident, the dismantling waspleted safely. Phew. That was a lot of work. But it was worth the trouble. My dismantling skill has improved. And here are the results of the dismantling, starting with the regr bees.
<b>Honey Bee Honey: Rarity 3 Ingredient Item Quality E</b>
<b>Honey made by Honeybees. Very sweet and good for your health.</b>
<b>Wasp Stinger: Rarity 3 Material Item Quality E</b>
<b>A poisonous stinger used by wasps to attack. The stinger is poisonous and must be handled with care.</b>
<b>Carpenter Bee Stinger: Rarity 3, Material Item, Quality E-</b>
<b>A poisonous stinger used by carpenter bees to attack. The stinger is poisonous and must be handled with care.</b>
<b>Killer Bee Stinger: Rarity 3 Material Item Quality E-</b>
<b>A poisonous stinger used by killer bees to attack. The stinger is poisonous and must be handled with care.</b>
And the queen wasp. Here it is!
<b>Deadly Poison Queen Bee Stinger: Rarity 4 Material Item Quality E+</b>
<b>A poisonous stinger used by the queen wasp to attack. The stinger is poisonous and must be handled with care.</b>
<b>Honey Bee''s Nest: Rarity 4 Material Item Quality E+</b>
<b>A nest guarded by a wasp queen. If you prepare a hive and have the beekeeping skill, you can obtain honey.</b>
<b>Wasp Child: Rarity 4 Ingredient Item Grade E+</b>
<b>Therva of a wasp. When eaten, it tastes like a nut and is delicious.</b>
<b>However, it requires courage to eat.</b>
<b>Honey Bee Royal Jelly: Rarity 4 Ingredient Item Quality D-</b>
<b>The food of the queen wasp. It is more nutritious than honey and is also white and creamy.</b>
Royal jelly! That makes me so happy! Furthermore, it looks like Honey Bee''s hive will be able to produce honey through beekeeping. I''m seriously wondering if I should summon a Bee.
And then there''s the little wasp...in other words, it''s a honeybee. I''ve heard that they''re edible. I also know that it is actually sold. I''ve also heard that they taste like nuts and are delicious...but that''s the thing. This is this. Whether you eat them or not is another matter!
But this bee army is full of twists and turns. I feel like we''re talking about wasp queens raising carpenter bees and honey bees. There should be wasps and carpenter bees in the killer bee category to begin with. I''m not sure what they''re trying to do here.
At any rate, I threw the items into my inventory. I''ll have to figure out how to use them. But for now, I''ve sessfullypleted my quest!

Author note:
Leveling up and evolving will be carried over to next time.
This time we had a boss battle, but it happened because Takuto discovered the boss''s nest by ident. It has nothing to do with Liese''s request event.
