Epic of Bee

Chapter 241 In This Life And Until I Reach My Next One



I still couldn't see it, but I closed my eyes and scanned the area around with my System, then I saw it. It wasn't just one barrier; it was hundreds of them layered on top of each other.

They looked like they had become one, but every layer had a magical circle with runes on it for the barrier, shield, darkness, prison, and countless other things like that. This was more than strange.

Why had I never seen anything like this before, and why could both sides use it?

"Why can you use the magic circle things? I can see the same things one the barrier, and I need to know what they are. I can read them, but I need to know how they work and why both of you can use the same kind of magic," I said to Sakura when I walked back on the other side of the barrier.

The one thing that the barrier did do to my vision was hidden Sakura, even my scanners. Once I was on the other side, I could sense her as soon as I got through again.

I was pretty sure that I could just cheat her through, and I was going to want to Shyft into my DragonBee form, and I could just hide her inside of me.

"I learned from a Meccat that taught me how to use the other words, but I had the ability to make basic fire ones because of my Radiant Heart. When my people were alive, there were many different kinds of Gem Hearts, and each had a special element attribute that would give our fire its color," Sakura explained to me.

"Why didn't the Ravager use magic circles? I have never seen this before, and now I see you use it, and you're sealed by the same thing. Weird, right?" I asked, but she shook her head.

"Only creatures with one of the Gem Hearts can use it, but once they have it, they can use more than just the primary element of the Heart. My people are still being tortured even after death, and no one sees anything wrong with it. The creature that attacked me was and still is using my father's Binding Heart," Sakura said, and I nodded.

"Okay, then you can wait here, and I will bring your father's Gem Heart back to you," I said and turned to go, but she stopped me.

"What do you mean? I thought that we were going together, and how will you know where his Gem Heart even is?!" Sakura asked me, and I placed my hand on her stomach; the scans I had taken of her showed some type of magical power source.

"I can scan for it, and this will be better. I didn't know that he was your father, but I will make sure to take good care to bring him back to you," I said, trying to pull away, but she tightened her grip, so I started to walk back to the barrier, expecting her to be stopped.

"What? Are you kidding me? You just could have asked to hold my hand if that's all it would have taken! See? Now you have no choice!" Sakura said, but I was trying to do it for her.

"I could always throw you back in. I don't want you to have to see your father like whatever he is," I said, but Sakura shook her head.

"That creature isn't my father; it is just using his power. I want to rip it to pieces, but I don't understand how you plan on doing that. I told you what it is like, you know, immune to everything. How are you going to attack it?" Sakura asked me, and I smiled at her with a mischievous grin.

"How bad do you want to be the one to rip it apart? Hmmm, Miss Putty Cat?" I asked her, and Sakura's eyebrow twitched.

"What do you just call me? How about we pick up where we left off?" Sakura growled at me, but I rolled my eyes.

"Sure, lay down, and I will mount you, pin you down again, and proceed to tickle you until you wet yourself. Well, what are you waiting for?" I asked.

"How do you have seven women that were willing to marry you?" Sakura shot back at me, and I laughed out loud.

"It's because I have a long tongue and a bright and sweet personality," I said after I finished laughing, but it was time to get serious. "Okay, but jokes aside, did you actually hear what I said to you?"

"Yes, fine, but I don't understand what you are talking about," Sakura said.

"I need you to pledge yourself to me and become one of my subjects; we will do the wife thing when you are ready. For now, I need you to become one of my subjects, and then I am going to give you a shot of something. After that, you will be able to fight the creature, or at least I am pretty sure you will, but I will send my Vulture Bees to help you and don't ask; you will just have to see," I explained, and Sakura looked at me hesitantly.

"You will have full control of me, right? That's what your System is, right? I have seen the other Fallen Hero use his, but never the actual abilities, just a chart he made appear when his eyes would light up. Your eyes light up, but you don't have any screens for them; why?" Sakura asked me, and I nodded my head yes.

"Yes, and I will treat you no differently than I do now, but if you try to do something that could harm me, you, or anyone in the hive intentionally, the System will prevent you from doing it. I can also restrict you from doing things, or I could order you to," I started to say, but Sakura was already down on her knees and put her head to my feet.

"In this life and until I reach my next one, I will serve you and protect you with my life!" Sakura said into my feet and then flashed with light.
