Chapter 298 Otterly Disappointed In You!
"That would be my faithful Royal Guards, coming in Hive-y," I said, and Miku giggled beside me and came to cuddle into me as I held us both in the air.
"I Elephant didn't think you were going to make it back, but I am glad you did! I have Bee-n working on my Beegauge!" Miku giggled, and so did I.
"I don't know if I should Bee proud of you or Otterly disappointed in you!" I said as the gigantic black and yellow mecha dragon approached us. Now that I was not in the Epic Bee, I felt tiny to the boy's new massive form. "Wow, you have gotten huge, Tagsig! Did you eat something else?"
The dragon let out a strange but low rumbling double laugh. "Sorry, our most excellent Queen! We are a bit Pig right now, but we are actually heading to go deal with the Tellarider, and then we will meet you at the first swarm site. We just came to the remaining nests, and all the Sky Folk have pulled back. When it is time for you to make your move, we will disable their armies since we assume that you will need to do whatever you did to your new wife, Helaina, to the other Wasp Queens, right?"
"Yes, I will take a team of drones with me, but I have to get Gamble here to help me start making modifications to them. There are a ton of other things I need that man for, so I am really just stuck in a waiting game for my new ship to get here. How long do you think it will be before the nests are kicked?" I asked, and the dragon looked over at the expanding Hexscape.
"Do we finally have a home rather than a ship? The place is really looking excellent! A day at most, no more. I think they are just recovering after the attacks from the Sky Folk. I really hope we can get this all solved and go back to meeting more excellent people!" Tagsig roared in his double voice, getting a bit Otter control and making my Shock Absorber nearly jump around on my chest from the vibrations. "Sorry!"
"Thanks for stopping by. I hope everything goes well with the Tellarider; I mean, I want you to burn it with fire. That thing and Trent are the reason why everything got so Buzzed up, so Buzz that thing!" I ordered, and the big metal dragon face smiled.
"With pleasure, our most Queen," Tagsig said and pulled back from us to fly away down the canyon. I had the ship over Goblin mountain, but I needed some things to happen first before I took on any more subjects. The biggest thing was my upcoming meeting with my Bee Brain, Gamble, and, thankfully, Rai Cait, and the ship would be here soon.
"Let's head inside since Gamble is going to be here soon," I said and started to head down the portal that was on the inside edge of the Hexscape.
"You really put a lot of faith in him?" Miku asked as we floated through the Honey Gate and into the meeting room. It felt like ages since the last time I had been here.
"Gamble is the smartest person we have and has helped in many ways. Most of the things that we have that I didn't provide come from his mind. I was very worried about him when he was captured and forced to work under the gun on the Divinity Spike. We need him and his amazing ideas. We have over a million new people that will be coming to live in the city, and things are going to change dramatically after the Swarm Wars are taken care of," I explained as I walked over to take my seat. Rai Cait had just arrived, and Gamble should be teleported here soon. I expected there to be some slight delays since his wife, Pixie, was waiting for him.
"Well, I am going to go see what Rixie is doing for a bit," Miku said as she turned to head off, and I nodded my head. She was so cute that it almost hurt me sometimes.
I waited for a bit, but then Serria walked into the room and came over to sit with me on my lap. Without her even saying a word, instantly, all my stresses melted away as she cuddled into me. I wrapped all four arms around her as she nuzzled into my Cupid Clamshells.
"Mmm, I missed this so much! You don't know how much I needed this!" I moaned, and Serria looked up at me with a cute smile and made her ears twitch, causing my heart to melt in a puddle in my chest.
"I miss you too, Ashia. I don't know how much longer I can stay away from my Queen," Serria said, and I leaned in to gently kiss her soft lips that were like fireworks going off in my mind. I could have lost myself, but I had become a bit more resistant to her calming nature since I was gone, and I knew Gamble and the other would Bee coming in soon.
"You can stay as long as you want! We have lots of time to play later, but for now, we have some Bee-ing to do!" I said as Gamble Teleported into the room with Pixie and the Otter Folk woman I had seen him with on the station beside him. "Welcome back! Have a seat, and let's talk about what needs to be done!"
"Sorry I am late! We have been working so hard and got here as soon as I could," Gamble said and rushed over to sit down in the seat next to me.
"No worries, my Bee Brain. We haven't even started yet!" I told him with a smile. "Have you had time to look at what I sent you?"
"Yes, we have been looking over the drone designs, and metalworking has come up with some really great ideas. I think it will all work perfectly!" Gamble exclaimed. "The first part of your modifications is ready now, and then we can start on the second batch after that."
"That is good! Hopefully, everything goes well when it comes time to attack. This battle is going to Bee a tough one," I said as Pixie and the other woman sat down on either side of him. This seemed to be a bit of a new update, and I was curious as to who this girl was. "Who is your friend?"
