Chapter 75

[Note: I'll try to publish Chapter 74 as soon as my source publishes it. Enjoy reading☺️]

Lee Minseong managed to escape from Queen Bee Arsha, but after that, he had to run away while being hunted by contaminated lancers.

The lancers were obviously weaker than Minseong, but it was impossible to kill them.

Every time he tried to kill them, a powerful message resonated in his head, causing him to suffer from a tremendous headache.

-Be loyal to the Queen!

-Be loyal to the Queen!

[Ack! Shut up! Shut up!]

He really seemed to almost lose it.

If he didn’t try to counter his mind for even just for a while, his desire to return to the Queen Bee on his own and kneel down to swear allegiance surged up.

-Be loyal to the Queen!
[Stop! Stop! Please get out of my head!]

He tried everything to get the voice out of his head, but to no avail.

Even when he plugged his ears and banged his head on the floor, the voice didn‘t stop.

That was natural.

It wasn‘t a voice in the first place.

It was the instinct of a worker bee reborn for the Queen Bee. For Lee Minseong, who always reigned over others, it was a very humiliating feeling.

-Be loyal to the Queen!

[I refuse! I‘m not a worker bee!]

He gritted his teeth and forcibly suppressed his instincts.

Ironically, the place where he managed to avoid the pursuit of the lancers was the Vice President‘s Office of the Reaper Guild.

[Whew. Yes, my place is right here. It‘s not like a beehive.]

He was breathing heavily and was about to take a bottle of wine from the cellar and drink it as usual, but his expression changed.

[… It was because of this!]

The wine in his hand was the culprit of that situation he was in.

A high-quality wine and royal jelly that the ‘Lady‘ always gave him as a gift whenever he went to Queen Bee.

That was the Queen Bee‘s poison!

[I drank this every day, that was why I‘m like this…!]

Lee Minseong held the wine bottle high to throw it, but hesitated for a moment.

[… Hold on a second.]

When he thought of the Queen Bee‘s poison, he suddenly had a good idea.

He came up with a way to suppress the worker bee‘s instincts.

By using that…

[Maybe I can create my own corps.]

Lee Minseong poured his mana energy into the royal jelly.

He changed the properties of royal jelly to his own preferences.

[Great. Now, if you are poisoned by this, you will turn into a soldier loyal to me, not the Queen Bee.]

Lee Minseong absorbed the newly prepared royal jelly into his stinger.

Then, he went outside and attacked the lower level hunters and injected them with royal jelly.

Somehow they died right on the spot.

[Tsk. Weaklings. Can‘t even stand this much poison.]

Lee Minseong clicked his tongue and went to find stronger intermediate hunters.
