Marigold – A LitRPG

'This boy is really good, there is no one faster than him in this colony now, well, I don't think there is anyone weaker than him in this colony either, but he seems to be very good at his job, being able to tell if there is an imminent danger about to happen is an incredible power to have.'

But something I couldn't help but notice is that Matt lost the [Polonizer], [trait], so the traits aren't permanet, they can change throughout our lives, but I think losing a trait that gave him Xp isn't something to celebrate.

"I'm glad you're happy Matt, I hope you do a good job as a vigilante, but what happened to make you lose the [Polonizer] trait?"

"About that! I have no idea... Maybe it's because my class changed, but I'm not sure, I just know it sucks! I can't get XP anymore."

"Well, don't worry about it, I'm sure we'll sort it out eventually, now I'll go back to my new room, and you can go back to get our rest, keep doing your best darling."

"Of course, mom! You should have seen Miles face when I evolved! He must be biting his own claws from so much hate! He he "

Do these guys ever stop fighting? I think at least it's a friendly competition, it's not like they hate each other, they just like to compete.

When I went towards where Levi's group was I could see a building that wasn't there this morning, the building was inside the building shared with the nursery, with the recent expansion this place started to become empty, so much so that the new plan was to transform it into the new permanent nursery.

But now about 30% of this place had become the "royal quarters", and I must say it was quite spacious. The place was still full of bees working on the finishing touches, and there was a big bed right in the middle of the room, the bed was made up with regular wax and comfortable sheets, the whole place had several jars full of honey, and some games and a pile of of letters left by workers.

The whole place was very well done, and was being guarded by soldiers outside, with honorable mention from the only swordsman stationed at the entrance.

"Boys, what's all this, you didn't need to do so much..."

"Of course we needed it mom! Your quarters were always a big concern, but you insisted on sleeping in that weird smelling place, now that we have the chance we can create a place that is adequately protected, and comfortable."

"Is this really necessary?... I don't like the idea of soldiers stationed at my door...."

"Of course yes, how else other than putting soldiers to protect you 24 hours a day can we guarantee your safety?"

"Yes, if you had soldiers accompanying you on the day of the explosion you would have left without a single scratch!"

But the soldiers would have been hurt...

"Okay, since they insist so much, but outside, okay? Without anyone watching me while I sleep, this won't happen!"

"It's not ideal... But we can work with it." Said my swordsman.

After a while all the work was finished, the workers said goodbye and the soldiers left the room to stay outside, I could still see them through the "door", but they respected my request, and didn't look at me. my direction, I must admit, that sleeping surrounded by soldiers calmed something inside me, maybe it was my instincts, which I used to ignore a lot, saying that I did something right.

When the day dawned I went straight to the nursery, my new workers had hatched, and now we had hundreds of them, the beacons would soon emerge and now I had several empty brood units, and 10 pearly white cocoons, from which in a few moments my new [Weavers] would emerge.

After waiting for a few moments while discussing with the nurses what the next batch would be, the white cocoons began to break and small bees the size of a common worker began to emerge from inside.

These bees had a much larger and silkier mane, they had small pompoms of hair on their arms and legs and small, fragile-looking wings, the most eye-catching thing about them was their bee-like backs, which were the same size as mine, even though they were smaller than me.

They all had a very "feminine" vibe, but I could still tell from the link that they were men, and that started to irritate me, why were all my descendants men? Is there something wrong with me, or something else? Can only queens be female in this world? After all, I never needed a male to create eggs, just the skill, so it seemed like the system had no reason to create a female bee if it wasn't to lay eggs.

But even so, I would still like to see a female in this place besides me, it's not like it's an impossible or ridiculous request.

While I was thinking about this, all the tailors came out of their cocoons and delicately cleaned themselves, they had red eyes, and a dull yellow body, which gave them an air of elegance or old age, I can't say which of the two, but they still looked very sophisticated and serious.

"Hello everyone, welcome to the world, I'm your mommy!"

"Hello mother!"

"Can you please explain your abilities to me?"

"Of course! We are able to create silk and work with it, creating things like ropes or fabrics."

"We can also modify the texture, strength, quality and color of the silk produced based on the resources used, and the purpose of use."

It doesn't seem like a big deal when they say it like that, but no one really gives the value that basic items like cloth deserve. Without fabric or ropes we wouldn't have things like clothes, filters, insulation, toys or even some food.

'The silk produced by these tailors could revolutionize life in this colony, we could enter a whole new era, we could create the mill's propellers, create filters for the cooks, ropes for the workers and create decorations and utilities for the entire colony, no. We need clothes, but we could use some towels, rugs and table cloths.'

"This is incredible guys! Please do a good job, I'll ask the boys to build you a room, but until then you can stay in the old honey warehouse, we have 2 big honey tanks there, and a decent amount of space."

"Thanks!"

"I also wanted to give each one a name... But if I start naming everyone I'll never remember everything, so how about I call them all "The Sewing Club", and give the club oldest member a name? That way he can give each one names over time, if you guys want, of course."

"We don't care about names, mom! But if you want us to give you a name, we'd be grateful!"

'Now, what should I call a seamstress bee?.... They are very elegant, and seem to be 'fashionable', so what?'

'Ragyō Kiryūin? No... That name brings bad luck... Satsuki Kiryūin? No... it's too long... Sat? Suki? Zuk? Zuki?'

"I'll call you Zuki! The oldest of the weavers!"

"Thank you mom!~"

When we finished, the tailors left and I was left alone with the nurses to lay another large batch of eggs, this time I wanted to create 50 farmers, and 50 carpenters, I already knew they would be useful, so there was no reason to create a small number to see its uses.

Without much delay I laid all the eggs and then I went back to my private room. Now that the workers had finished all the finishing touches on the room they had returned to the project with the infirmary, with the recent increase in the number of workers it was easy to build an infirmary, dormitory and mess hall for the soldiers.

"hmm? Oh! I remember now."

"What happened mom? What do you want?" asked one of the soldiers at the door.

"I need you to let Levi know that the seamstresses need a room of their own, make them prioritize that please Simus, I would really like a soft blanket and comfy pillows."

"Immediately mother!"

Things were happening around here, everything was becoming more and more developed day by day, this place that not so long ago was just the top of a tree was now looking like a factory entirely made of wax, it had roads and large structures, corridors that connected everything togheter and a large number of "armed" soldiers patrolling the place.

Our enemies, (who to this day I have never seen in person) seemed to be intimidated by our growing numbers, we were the rulers of this region according to Hans, Apparently we gained a very bad reputation around here. Any living creature that was weaker than the soldiers was simply obliterated.

And According to Trouble he's starting to move on to... Bigger targets. Finding enemies had become a real challenge, everything that the soldiers could easily kill had already been killed, and all that was left were large and very dangerous animals. But Trouble didn't seem to be afraid of them, of course he wasn't going after a moose, but he was starting to fight off creatures like young squirrels and small birds, I don't think he's managed to kill anything until this day but at least he's trying.

I was in my room, being served a delicious honey drink, by the arms of one of my soldiers while the tailors measured and made plans across all the room.

My privacy had been slowly and strategically invaded, under the pretense of helping, I now had a small entourage, which was made up of common soldiers, a swordsman, and a small group of workers.

These guys followed me everywhere, and whenever I tried to disperse them they didn't really go away, they always stayed around, bringing me sweets, giving me massages or talking to me and keeping me company.

'If you can't fight them, join them.'

There were so many advances to stay close to me, 24 a day that I ended up giving in, it wasn't like they were doing anything uncomfortable, they were just keeping me company and taking care of me, but I had still lost a little of my privacy.

And while I was just relaxing, drinking some nectar from a pitcher given by a soldier, and getting massages from some workers, I received notification of the slaughters, most likely coming from Trouble's group.

'Wow, the boys seem to have gotten quite a kill, 3 soldiers managed to evolve, but what the hell is this Slaughterer class?'
