While searching the forest, Love Fire finally found Honey Bee. There's a nest at the branch of a tree. Now, how to attack... Basically, fire and flame magic is the ideal way to annihilate them, but Honeybee is expected to be very fast. I'm sure you'll be stuck with magic alone. In this case, it is important to set Aranea's traps. The opponent is a flying insect. If this is a skill that makes spider webs, then it would be enough as insurance.

If we ask Aranea to do this, she'll build a spider web in front of us. This skill, it's going to change the whole concept of hunting.

Aranea is back with all her magic spent. You're done. We'll do the rest.

Setia, summon the genie.

I'm on it.

"Love Fire takes care of Trid Hell first.

Trid Hell has a wide range of effects, if it increases the power of my fire magic, it should still be the first thing I use.

''But I'll do my best!

'I'll then damage it with a fire shower. I want you to attack Konoha with wind magic. I'm sure he'll be fine, but watch out for Aranea's spider webs. We'll see what happens from there. Locomoco and Aranea, stay by my side.

Ho.
Meh.

Konoha and Locomoco reply. Aranea cannot speak.

Then let's do it. Setia invokes the spirit summoning.

'Spirit summoning!'

When a red magic circle floats on the ground, a palm-sized burning girl appears from it. This is the genie. We look at her and she talks to Setia. You can talk to her, can't you? But the content was no good.

'Tch. I come out when they call me, and you're a peta-pie mongrel 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 Aeon? If you answer these questions, you lose. But I've learned that ignoring them won't change the outcome.

'I'm talking about you. You.

He says as he slaps Setia's forehead. Setia's anger is about to explode and Setia falls down. Looking at her status, her magic power is on. It's the same as Lily and the others.

''What is it?　You. You out of magic?　Dassey.

...uh...

Setia looks frustrated. She clutches the grass on the ground. The spirit that has ragged on Setia so much comes over here.

"Are you the master of the elves?

Oh. The Summoner's Tact.

Hmm.

The genie flits around me, looking at me. Your reaction is different from earlier.

'Yeah!　You're good!　I love it!

I don't know why he liked me.

So what do you want me to do?　I can attack and support you.

Heh. That's convenient. But this time, we're going on the offensive.

"We're going to take down that honeybee now. Can you help me?

I'll take care of it!　It's like a hundred little bees.

'That's encouraging. I'll shoot our range magic at first, then you're free to fight after that.

That's good advice. Now that you mention it, I'll have to show you the power of the Fire Spirit!

Somehow I think I understand why Setia was no good and I was liked. This fire spirit seems to be belligerent. Setia is not willing to fight as she pleases. I have a feeling that this discrepancy in character has resulted in this result.

Incidentally, the fire spirit was a support slot, separate from the party members, so it's not a problem. So let's get started.

'Trid Hell!'

Love Fire uses Trid Hell. A magic circle was drawn on the ground, and the ground and trees were engulfed in fire, creating a flame-hot hell, just as the word meant. But this is an environmental problem, isn't it? Will the trees and other things be okay?

A lot of bees come out of the beehive, detecting the magic of love fire. My identification skills catch them.

Honey Bee Lv 3.

Wasp Lv 15

Bearbee Lv 15

Killer Bee Lv 5

Wait a minute! Hey! So I told you to stop doing that because it's traumatic! And how many of them were in that little nest! I mean, what's with all the hornets and stuff, and they're all coming at us! It's crazy!

And anyway, if they get close, it's over! I don't want to get stabbed!

Fire shower!

Fire sparks rained down around the beehive. An army of bees is being burned, but they didn't die, but came toward us. A swarm of bees. Trauma!

The fire spirit is delighted by the situation.

''Haha!　It's good fire and flame magic!　So now it's my turn!

As he says this, the fire spirit jumps forward. Ah, the spider's web. But the fire spirit slipped through the spider's web. Come to think of it, Setia said it was a nature spirit. So it's a spirit, so it can't be trapped in a spider's web.

The fire spirit goes straight into the swarm of bees. Then it activates magic or something.

The Fire Dance.

When the fire spirit says this, the fire spirit flies through the sky and scatters sparks. And the bees that were touched by the sparks are burning one after another. The carcasses of the bees with black burns were mass-produced on the ground. Tut, grrr...that was a true statement.

And then they are all wiped out safely. Phew...that's a relief. I have the fire spirit to thank for that.

Just as I'm thinking that, the beehive lights up and turns into a monster. It's a giant, human-sized bee holding a beehive. Identification.

A queen wasp?
?　?　?

Yeah. I thought it was the queen bee. But the fire spirit's sparks are still alive and well. It burns the queen hornet, but the queen hornet came blazing down on me.

I feel like I'm dreaming... but I still have a safe bet. The queen wasp gets caught in a spider's nest. I didn't expect this to happen, but it does!

"Flame Circle!
Red Ray!

A pillar of fire and a red flash of light blazing up from the ground catches the queen wasp and it explodes. That stops it, and we win a huge victory.

Naturally, we have to level up, but we dismantle it first. However, that's where we seem to say goodbye to the fire spirit.

'Looks like it's over here... it's been a long time since we've had a rampage and it's been fun.

I see. It would have been a close call if you hadn't been there. Thank you so much.

Hmm. I'd still like to talk to you, but I'm running out of steam.

I say, and approach Setia.

"Bye. Let those poor tits grow back.

With that, the fire spirit disappeared. Needless to say, Setia's heart's cry echoed through the forest.

Such an incident happened, but the demolition ended safely. Phew. It took a lot of work. But the hard work was worth it. My demolition skills have improved. And here are the results... from an ordinary bee.

Honey Bee's Royal Jelly: Rare Level 4 Food Item Category D-
Food of the queen of wasps. It is more nutritious than honey and also has a white, creamy consistency.

Royal jelly! I'm so f*cking happy! Furthermore, Honey Bee's hive is apparently going to be able to get honey from beekeeping. I'm seriously wondering if I should summon the bees.

And the waspling in question... well, the beehive. I've heard that they're actually edible. I know they're actually sold. I've even heard they taste like nuts and are supposed to be delicious... but hey, that's it. This is it. Whether you eat them or not is another matter!

But this bee army is full of tweaks. I feel like we're talking about a wasp queen raising bears and honey bees. There should be wasps and bears in the category of killer bees in the first place. I don't know what I'm trying to do.

For now, I'm going to throw the items into my inventory. I'll have to figure out what to do with them. But for now, I guess I'll complete the quest in one piece!
