Chapter 204.2 - The Secret of Sugar

Chapter 204.2 - The Secret of Sugar

On the other hand, the beehive hunting team was the worst harem team composed of the Souma siblings, Class Rep, Natsukawa-san, and Kenzaki. Mei-chan and my Twin Shadow were also a part of this team.

Well, I don't think hundreds life would be enough if I really joined that line-up in the flesh. Isn't it about time that I work on this problem?

By the way, the Tendou Yankee team was standing by in our base.

Good grief, when I gave those Yankees some leeway, they Ugh!?

Randou-san! Can you please stop playing pranks when I'm operating my shadow!?

Ahaha, my ba~d.

This gal wasn't reflecting on her actions at all.

When controlling my Twin Shadow, my real body was lying down on a handmade hammock in the fairy plaza like someone taking an afternoon nap, but I ended up receiving a surprise attack from the gal with too much free time. Fortunately, we were not in the middle of combat. Not that I could make any contribution to the Souma siblings party.

Any problem, Kotaro-kun?

No, no problem here. The fairy plaza is just kinda getting rather noisy.

I see, I thought Randou-san pulled a prank again on you.

Uwaa~, that's scary Mei-chan. She could actually guess that much just by a momentary pause of my control.

Maybe I should take Randou-san a bit more seriously.

No problem on my side. Rather, what about Rem?

Kua~

When my shadow was riding on Alfa and she replied with a bark.

What did she say, Kotaro-kun?

Uhm, it seems she has already found the beehive.

To search for the whereabouts of the beehive this time, I tamed the flock of wild birds using Echo. Naturally, the flock was led by bird-type Rem into the forest of the resort area.

Natsukawa-san's scouting ability was top-notch, but she was alone. She could not match Rem's bird squad in terms of mobility and range when combing around a vast area from the sky.

The beehive is over here!

Are you sure, Natsukawa-san?

Yeah, let's go already!

Man, never expected that Rem's bird squad would be defeated by Natsukawa-san. I guess her sense as a Thief isn't just for show.

Thus, following the lead of our vanguard, Souma-kun, to enter the forest, I once again marveled at the ability of vocation.

It's a goma!

The one who screamed from the other side of the thicket was Souma-kun.

Those guys again.

Come to think of it, we still had no idea where the gomas in this area got their sugar from.

Rather, they are already dead.

Yup, it's just their corpse.

I thought they were going to charge at us as soon as they saw Souma-kun, but it turned out Souma-kun just found their corpses.

They might have been attacked by a raptor.

+++

In short, making them stay in that place was equal to real beekeeping.

In that way, we could harvest honey any time we wanted.

We had to regulate the amount of harvesting for recycling the beehive, but it was possible to harvest a lot of them by harvesting bit by bit.

You always come up with all kinds of strange ideas eh, Momokawa-kun.

As expected, the curse to manipulate someone against their will is

.

Contrary to the overjoyed duo, Class Rep seemed to be creeped out by this method.

Rather, can you stop connecting this with brainwashing ability please? I'm tired of Kenzaki's nonsense already.

I mean, this ain't even a damn curse, this is summon skill. If you want to complain, find Azuma-kun in heaven, if he entered heaven, that is.

Summon skill is great after all. It's really convenient and has various kinds of practical applications.

Though I was not under suspicion for now, thanks to beekeeping, we might be able to raise our efficiency in terms of combat or searching for enemies. This simple function turned out to be the most useful among the skull series. Thank you Azuma-kun, your skull was truly useful.

Well then, successfully taming the queen bee is an unexpected harvest but We can't get our original harvest, the honey.

It was still a mystery how Natsukawa-san detected this broken beehive faster than Rem. The honey in this place had already been snatched by the gomas.

Kotaro-kun, shall we go and destroy those gomas to prevent them from destroying another beehive?

I mean, they're a bane for the other beehives!!

In short, this will be a crusade for honey, isn't it?

Ooh, that's scary girls. Human appetite is really scary.

The honey is gone since those gomas ate them.

We have to save the honey, even if it is just one drop

Yes, just imagining them eating honey is enough to piss me off.

Well, it is gomas after all. It doesn't really matter even if they were gone from the ecosystem.

Oi Momokawa, since we're going to look for the base of the gomas, are we going to raid their base as well?

Nope, we will see the situation.

If there was a huge goma settlement on par with the size of the pyramid settlement which Souma party encountered back then, we couldn't just raid them recklessly without an appropriate plan. That said, I wouldn't hestitant to raid the village if we found out that they had a secret weapon that might be useful in a battle against Yamata no Orochi Risking our lives just for the honey sounds like a stupid idea.

If it was only a small settlement, our team alone was enough to subjugate it, but that's all.

I'm curious about the origin of their sugar. I think this is something that we have to investigate.

Perhaps I should use this chance to investigate the gomas who inhabit this resort area to learn more about their race.
