《Bee Emperor》Chapter 8: Honeymoon
Advertisement
There isn’t much to do in a hive. Besides eating and sleeping, most of my day is spent outside the hive. Maybe I would spend more time in the hive if I could communicate with the workers, even the queen. But with no way for me to accomplish that, all I can do is go out exploring.
First I explored the area around the hive. There wasn’t much to see, just trees, flowers, birds, insects, vines, and dirt. Probably about half a mile west there is a small, stagnant pond. I avoided getting too close to it as I’m sure there’s plenty of things willing to snack on me there.
It wasn’t until I flew above the canopy did I get a good view of what’s around the hive. North, the direction the hive is facing, in a couple of miles starts turning mountainous with tree covered hills and mountains reaching towards the clouds. Strangely despite all indications that it’s spring, I spot multiple trees that don’t have green leaves.
They increase in concentration the higher up you look on the mountain, giving it a beautiful appearance as large trees of reds, greens, blues, yellows, and some whites and blacks color its landscape.
Despite the lack of oddly colored trees near the hive, I can’t help but worry if their strange color will be a potential problem. Of course, that’s neither here nor there.
Slightly west of the mountains are the beginnings of a river that curves further west and then straightens out as it starts flowing mostly south. East of the hive, the forest continues seemingly endlessly. There are odd colored trees further east but not anywhere near the concentration seen on the hills and mountains towards the north.
South of the hive is where the treeline starts thinning out. Eventually it turns into grassland with plenty of wild flowers growing. The lack of trees in that direction allows me to see even further with more clarity compared to the other directions.

However, unlike the other directions that don’t have even the slightest sign of human activity, there’s only what I can describe as a vague silhouette of an old timey wagon caravan heading northeast along the river.
Shocked by my finding, I can’t help but fly in circles out of excitement. I’ll finally have some human contact, I might even be able to talk to them and see if they can solve my whole being a bee problem.
My excitement quickly dies as I realize that I’m still a bee. I can’t even communicate with the other bees in my hive, despite the queen naturally being able to do so, let alone communicate with someone multiple times my size. They might even just stomp on me out of annoyance.
Filled with indecision, I decide to simply check the people out and see what I can glean from them. It’d be especially useful if they speak English, but judging by how they’re using covered wagons, I might be in some remote part of the world.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained as they say. Besides I don’t want to assume the worst, you know what they say about assuming after all. Maybe they’re just the type of people who like to relive the old days and those weird trees are painted.
Flying south, out of the forest, after about half an hour to an hour of flight I reach the point where they’re setting up camp by the river. With the setting sun it’s difficult to make out their image clearly. I’m going to need to get a closer look to see better and hopefully hear what they’re talking about.
Coming closer to the wagon encirclement I soon cross paths with an absolutely massive man with a sword almost as wide as he is with biceps bigger than an average man’s thighs. It’s clear he doesn’t skip the gym.
What caused me to be gobsmacked though, was not his muscular appearance but his dark green skin!

Reborn as a DRAGON
My name is Tim, or it was until I died. There was no light at the end of the tunnel, no white room to choose any cheats from, nor was there any meeting with God. I didn’t die heroically while saving someone, and I certainly didn’t get hit by a truck. My death was rather stupid and anticlimactic, I had apparently bumped my head while sleeping and passed away... That should have been the end of the road for me, but like many self-proclaimed main characters, I joined the army of multi-dimensional travelers and was reincarnated. Being an avid light novel and manga reader, I would have been excited about the opportunity, if not for my new siblings, who tried to kill me as soon as I was born, or for my mother, who seemed to have a thing for throwing me off cliffs. And let’s not forget my murderous father, who forced me to flatten a small country as my Rite of passage. Oh, did I mention I was reborn as a Dragon?

8 764World with Mana
Eric King's day starts with a headache and ends with him getting attacked by zombies. Not a great day at all. All this occurs because suddenly mana enters the world and forces itself on and into everything completely changing the world. People now have classes and can use magic, they see their own status, and a variety of creatures enter your world with a variety of different motives. To top it off a group might want his death for nothing other than his class. Note: I am not a great writer so expect to read subpaar writing, with an unoriginal story that I might not write for long. I am simply writing this to see if I enjoy writing stories like this and to test it as a hobby. The cover art is not mine, I found it online, if the owner does not want me to use this picture then I will take the picture down.

What will come of this unexpected change in circumstances? How will the tribes react? And will the Grashiens be able to rejoin society for good? Author's note: This is the first book in what is expected to be an eight-book series. The first few chapters aren't very good since they were written when I was about ten, but the quality improves around chapter 7. Please bear with it; I'll try to get the chapters in as soon as possible. Thanks!
