<span style="font-weight:400">"Let me get this straight; when you arrived here, you talked with the dragon bees. In return for helping them out, you would get honey?" Scarlet grabbed her head as she started to recount what urred.
<span style="font-weight:400">She was prepared to fire off her magic at the dragon bee. However, she was stopped by Keith as he got between them.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Essentially." Keith nodded.
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." Scarlet''s mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, and she desperately needed some time to process all of it. Her head felt like it was about to burst, and the weight of it all was like a giant boulder dumped on her shoulders.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Bzzz." While Scarlet had a mental breakdown, the dragon bee started nudging Keith''s face. That caused him tough, "Aww, do you want some sugar?" From his storage came sugar. When the dragon bee saw that, its wings started to p even faster.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Let me mix it with water." Mixing the two together made sugar water. With that, the dragon bee started to sip on it.
<span style="font-weight:400">"...Is that the sugar I heard so much about?" Scarlet had heard about the new seasoning created in the human kingdom. Sugar was something the other races had never expected.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm. Want to try some?" Keith summoned some cookies, "This is a baked good using sugar."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Delicious." Scarlet smiled. However, her expression changed, "But you don''t need to go now." Since Keith only came here for her, there was no need to do this.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Of course, I''m going to help out! It''s asking me for help, why wouldn''t I!"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Then why are you drooling?" Scarlet noticed something odd. Drooling down his lips. Drool dripped from the side of his lip; he looked more like a rabid animal.
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith grinned, "That''s because I found something new." The entire objective was to help Scarlet. However, it has changed now. His focus was solely on the honey.
<span style="font-weight:400">From what he could tell, the honey was incredible!
<span style="font-weight:400">"..." Scarlet stared. His eyes looked so yful and kind at the same time. A smile cracked on her face.
<span style="font-weight:400">"You should return to the city," Keith suggested. Things might get dangerous if she stayed here. But that only caused her to shake her head, "If you''re staying, then I''m doing the same." She couldn''t leave him here, not after hearing all of that.
<span style="font-weight:400">It would be a shame.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Alright. But you have to stay close to me at all times," Keith exined, and the girl nodded.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What are we supposed to do?" "What we''re going to do is take out the hos."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hos?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Yep, yep. We''re going to deal with hunter hos."
<span style="font-weight:400">Hunter hos. Hearing the name was enough for Scarlet to know. The hunter hos were the nemesis of the dragon bees. Like the bees, they were also A-rank.
<span style="font-weight:400">"There''s a huge swarm of hos close to the dragon beehive. Because of this, the dragon bees were having trouble collecting pollen." Keith sighed, "We''ll have to thin them out."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Thin them out?"
<span style="font-weight:400">"Mmhmm! We''re going to force them away from the dragon bee." Keith pumped his fist into the air.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Okay." Keith turned to the bee, "Can you lead the way?" The dragon bee was a guide and helper in this situation.
<span style="font-weight:400">"BZZZ," they head over to the ho''s nest like that.
<span style="font-weight:400">"How many are there?!" Scarlet was astounded by therge number of hos floating around.
<span style="font-weight:400">"They aren''t that tough. We only need to watch out for their absurd numbers." Hunter Hos weren''t that strong. If you have to estimate it, they would be low B-rank in terms ofbat. It was simr to the dragon bees. What made them so high in rank was because of the absurd number they had. If you n to face one, you must face 10 more in the process. It was too much for a regr adventurer.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What do you want to do?" Scarlet questioned. Keith was the leader of this trio. His expression was calm as well.
<span style="font-weight:400">"The first thing we must do is lure all those hos out of their home." No way could they drive them out if all these hos stay here.
<span style="font-weight:400">"How are we supposed to move all of that?" Scarlet frowned. The number in front of them was absurd. If they need to get them away, they would need much of everything just to move them!
<span style="font-weight:400">Keith shook his head, "I have a way to deal with this." He had checked up on them; that was why he was making his move now.
<span style="font-weight:400">"What is this?!" Scarlet covered her nose as she stared at the thing the guy brought out. It was so stinky that it caused her to scrunch up.
<span style="font-weight:400">"Some things I bought." Keith couldn''t handle it as well. He turned to the bird, "Aria."
<span style="font-weight:400">"Hoo!" The owl nodded as she quickly grabbed the small bag and flew around the ho''s nest. When she did, the hos were instantly attracted by the smell! Aria flew away as the hos continued to chase after her.
