I sat down slowly as I finished practicing the Dance of Ukasanavor.
It had been one and a half days since Sky Sovereign Mrenin and Orina had left, and they hadn't returned until now.
I am not worried; maybe slightly.
There shouldn't be any problem with Sky Sovereign Orina with him. That woman is really powerful; no sub-hive will be able to touch them with her and they are not going to the main hive yet.
The set had been crafted and the only thing we needed to do was to use them.
Over ten minutes later, I felt good enough that I had gotten up and walked to the bathroom. I washed away all the sweat and impurities before coming out feeling fresh.
I changed into the new clothes and turned to the projection of the cultist.
They have been collared and their storages have been taken, but that didn't make them any less dangerous.
We have not sealed their powers, due to the place we are, but if the power above a certain level is used, the collar will ask for permission if we don't give it three seconds; then it will give them something that will put even Peak Sky Sovereign on their knees.
These are organization-issued collars, and they are very powerful.
I hate these collars; I have personally suffered due to them, but these people are cultists. They are dangerous in dangerous places and if didn't need them, they wouldn't have been alive.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere is a clear operating procedure for these kinds of things.
If we find ourselves in a place like this with the cultists, then we are free to kill them to reduce the danger to us.
They are alive because we need them.
They know it as well. They didn't seem to be doing other than talking. They are not even talking visibly, but through their energy.
I slept for three hours and then ate, before working on my core.
Hun!
I had worked for around three hours when I sensed the movement. When I got out of the core and appeared beside the door, before opening it.
"Come in," I said to the two.
I opened my mouth to ask how it went when Sky Sovereign Mrinen handed me the storage ring.
In there are carcasses of the three hive-queen, which I immediately put in my core.
"The new formulae were really powerful. They dealt with other critters so effectively, that we only needed to kill the hive queens," he said.
"I am glad to hear that," I replied.
Soon, all three took a seat, and they turned to me. "Did you finish the set for the main hive?" asked Sky Sovereign Orina, without wasting any time.
"Yes, I did, but even with it, dealing with the main hive queen wouldn't be simple," I replied.
"You do not need to be worried about that. As long as the critter is dealt with, we will handle the hive queen," she said.
"So, when will we leave?" I asked.
"In six hours, after we rest," she said, and a minute later, they left, and I also went back to my room.
I have made all the preparations and slept. So, I went back to my core, where I saw the giant roots consuming the three massive carcasses of the hive queens.
They are big as the last two and the carcass of the main hive-queen is going to be even bigger.
I watched for a few seconds before getting back to my work.
Soon, six hours passed, and I gathered with the rest.
"Work with us on this and I will request leniency for you all. If you tried to mess this up in any way or didn't help, with the best of your abilities, that collar will give you pain like never before,"
"Though that won't be the worst; the worse will come later in the tor," she thought to the cultist, both Sky Sovereigns and Earth-Sovereign.
They didn't say anything; just kept looking at her. Orina didn't say anything either and simply flew up, with her energies carrying us up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince every hive is destroyed; there is no danger here. So, I went to my core, keeping only a small part of my consciousness out.
I am doing something tinkering with the rubies. It might turn helpful or useless, depending on what is inside that place; even Sky Sovereign Orina didn't dare to look deeply into it, in fear of getting discovered by the hive queen.
I have been working on it for hours and hope to finish it before we reach the main hive.
We should; it is definitely going to take at least four hours if we move at this speed, which is more than enough for me.
Time passed, and I kept working, and soon two and a half hours passed.
I finally stopped and looked at the product. It seemed like a had changed, but it did. What I did was temporary and will damage the rubies; I won't be able to use them, before repairing them again.
If they helped me get what I want; then I definitely wouldn't mind the damage, despite precious resources, it is going to cost me.
I put the rubies away, after checking their work, and focused on the data of the main hive.
Except for the main hive-queen, Sky Sovereign Orina had brought a lot of information on the main hive. Especially about the number of critters and they are shuddering.
There are hundreds of thousands of Sovereign critters; over a thousand Earth Sovereign critters and over a hundred Sky Sovereign critters.
These numbers are more than enough to deal with most of the Sky Sovereign organizations. It would even deal a big blow to the strongest of them if they were caught off guard.
I couldn't help but be scared, seeing all this information, but there is no other choice than to try.
It is the only way; we will be able to get out of this dammed place.
